Hiss ~ Open! Ivan rushed to the abandoned girls' bathroom as fast as he could, reopened the entrance to the secret room, and jumped into it without hesitation.

After a long time of falling through the silky, dark pipes, Ivan didn't even have time to clean the dust and dirt from his clothes, and walked towards the inside of the chamber with his wand in hand.

The sound of the rattling water slowly came to my ears, and the huge serpentine statue arched to the side, and streams of water were gushing out of the mouth of the snake and flowing into the pools on both sides.

In the center of the pool is a long passageway, and on the platform at the end, a figure in a dark purple robe and a golden red cloak is standing in front of the Slytherin statue with his back to him...

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Lockhart turned his head suddenly, and when he saw Ivan on the other side of the aisle, his expression became very flustered, he waved his hands in a panic, and said in a curt. "Hals, why are you here?"

"Lo . . . Ha.. Special! Ivan waved his wand angrily.

Sou~

A dazzling red light slammed into Lockhart, but it was bounced off by the protective cloak, hitting the serpentine stone sculpture on the side, and the huge snake head was blown out of a large crater, and a large amount of rubble and dust fell from the sky.

Lockhart saw what had happened to the stone sculpture, swallowed hard, and took a few steps back.

Although the spell was fended off by the protective cloak, Lockhart did not feel the slightest sense of security, after all, he had seen Ivan's true strength.

"No more loading, give me the Horcruxes!" Ivan didn't care too much when he saw this situation, and approached step by step.

In the past few days of experiments at school, Ivan has studied the use of the pupil of the bloodline magic basilisk, and a protective cloak can't pose any obstacles.

"Horcruxes? What is that? What are you talking about? Lockhart wanted to continue to defend himself, but after seeing Ivan raise his wand again, he hurriedly changed his words.

"If you're talking about a black diary, it's no longer in my possession!"

"You gave it to your admirers?" Ivan was not surprised, but sneered.

"They trust you so much that you use them as a tool to feed Tom Riddle? You're really going to do it..."

The moment he saw the task completed, Ivan figured out everything he hadn't figured out before.

After Dobby lost the Horcrux, it was Lockhart who picked it up, and only Lockhart could easily trust so many little witches from different houses and different grades.

"I can't be blamed for this, they volunteered to do it for me... Besides, none of them died, did they? Thanks to their efforts, I am one step closer to becoming a master magician. Lockhart spread his hands and said innocently.

"So what? Did Tom cure you? Ivan laughed at Lockhart's remarks, he never knew that Lockhart could be so stupid.

He thought that Lockhart had fooled so many powerful wizards and written so many legends, and that he could learn some lessons from them.

I didn't expect to easily believe the words of an evil diary.

However, to Ivan's surprise, Lockhart nodded and said proudly.

"Of course! He cured me, or I wouldn't have cooperated with him. ”

"Divided!" Lockhart waved his wand in an ostentatious way, and a mana ray slammed into the nearby stone pillar, creating a small hole in it.

"See? I just unleashed a spell! Of course, I know that there is still a big gap between this strength and that of a magic master, but I believe that it will be different soon. ”

"Not only that, but I can even speak snake language now..."Lockhart's face flushed, and he showed Ivan his change with excitement and excitement.

For Lockhart, who likes to show off and show off, his strength has improved so much all of a sudden, but he has never dared to tell outsiders, and he almost suffocated him to death.

"Do you really understand who you're dealing with? That's the Dark Lord! Do you think he would be so kind? Ivan listened to Lockhart's words, and his heart was cold.

In his opinion, Lockhart has been deeply affected by Horcruxes, and may even have been corrupted by Tom Riddle's soul without knowing it, so that he can speak snake language.

Thinking of this, Ivan quietly approached Lockhart step by step, the closer the basilisk pupil, the better the effect.

He needed to keep the fortified magic text every six hours, as well as enough mana to deal with Tom Riddle, and he didn't want to spend too much power on Lockhart.

"But I didn't have a choice!" Lockhart suddenly calmed down, he looked at Ivan, and said in disappointment.

"Hals, I begged you twice to help me, hoping that you could tell me the secret of becoming strong quickly, and I am willing to pay more gold gallons for this, but you still refused, didn't you?"

"I told you I didn't have anything like that," Ivan replied with a frown.

"Don't try to lie to me! I've seen everything you communicate with him in that diary, there's a way, isn't there? It's in this Slytherin chamber! ”

Lockhart interrupted Ivan's words excitedly, his eyes turned red, and his whole body trembled due to the emotion.

He looked at Ivan, a look of envy and even jealousy on his face, and muttered.

"You know what, Hals? I've always envied you! ”

"You have almost everything I want! Whether it's strength or prestige, you're so special wherever you go, and you can master a profound spell in just a few hours..."

"But I'm different from you, I'm so mediocre, I don't rely on some special means, I'll never get ahead! Forever! Lockhart looked a little hysterical.

"Your Oblivion Charm works better than anyone else, isn't that your talent? You're just in the wrong place! Ivan imprinted Lockhart's crazy appearance in his mind, and a chill ran through his heart.

"What's the use of that?" Lockhart sneered.

"No matter how good the Oblivion Charm is, you can only be the most ordinary employee in the Ministry of Magic's Affairs Department, and every day you work to cast spells on those stupid Muggles over and over again, so that they can forget something they shouldn't remember!"

"I need flowers and applause, and I need everyone to pay attention to me and worship me, this is the life I should live!" Lockhart's expression of fascination turned to become extremely hideous.

"Hals! If only no one wanted to be a liar all the time! ”
