..................

After coming out of the weird big stage, Hua Qiong's whole face had an indescribable strangeness, and it took a while to come to her senses.

“... Damn it. ”

"Sure enough."

After muttering a few words in a low voice, Hua Qiong put away the Ravenclaw crown that had just arrived, and then looked around, this time it seemed to be a real room for requirement, a large room, a door for entry and exit, and other than that, the interior decoration was no different from what she saw in the movie.

"Forget it."

"It's important to go out first, there's not enough time..."

I don't know what happened to the boss, I just saw the news that he got the Slytherin locket, so there are at least four of the seven Horcruxes in hand, the crown, the locket, the diary, the mirror of Eris, and the only thing left is the ring, the snake, and the gold cup.

"I don't know where to find these things."

"Hufflepuff Gold Cup.... Will there be a Hufflepuff common room? ”

"And...."

With some doubts, Hua Qiong pushed open the door to leave the Room of Requirement, but with this step, she found that she had not entered the corridor.

The Room of Requirement can even connect most of Hogwarts Castle if needed, and Hua Qiong had previously entered the Room of Requirement from the room where the Mirror of Eris was stored, but this time, she had gone from the Room of Request to another room.

“.... Yes. ”

But to be honest, even Hua Qiong recognized this room.

It's too important after all.

The most important sign is the Sorting Hat on the shelf behind the long table in the center of the room, next to a crystal box, behind which is a black cabinet with pot-shaped objects, and most importantly, a large fiery red bird flapping its wings on a gilded perch behind the door.

No doubt.

"Dumbledore's office?"

"Huh?"

After reacting, Hua Qiong suddenly fell into a deeper shock.

The reason is simple.

Because the room at this time is not in good condition.

Phoenix Fawkes fluttered its wings, but finally fell to the ground weakly, and its body ignited with blinding flames that quickly burned it to ashes.

The portraits of the principals of the past generations on the walls, without exception, have all been destroyed.

The meditation basin was also broken.

The crystal crate and the Sorting Hat were unharmed.

But on the huge desk in the center of the room, a figure with a robe and a chest-length white beard was lying on it.

The most important thing is that next to the old figure, there is another tall young man.

"Boss?"

It's Gu Moli.

As Hua Qiong's surprised voice came, Gu Moli, who was standing at the desk, seemed to finally react, and turned around a little stiffly to look over.

“... Ah, it's you, Huaqiong. ”

Anyway, this time it was just the two of them, so Gu Moli didn't deliberately call the game name.

"This is..."

Hua Qiong stepped forward in response, and her eyes also fell on the desk, looking at the old man who had closed his eyes, the half-moon-shaped glasses fell somewhere, and the dark green robe on his body did not have the slightest scar, but his right hand looked scorched black, and he suddenly had a guess in his heart.

And Gu Moli's words confirmed this speculation.

"Albus Dumbledore."

"The greatest white wizard of all time."

"Hmph."

Gu Moli sneered, then spread out his hand, and lying in the palm of his hand was a large ring, which looked like it was made of gold, but the craftsmanship was obviously very rough, and it was also inlaid with a black gem with a crack in the center, and there seemed to be a faint light flashing in the crack.

"Marvolo Gaunt's ring?"

"That's right."

[Congratulations to the player "Firework is easy to cold"!] 】

[You have successfully obtained one of the Horcruxes: Marvolo Gaunt's ring]

[Current Hero Trial Progress: Collect 7 Horcruxes (5/7)]

"So, the only Horcruxes left are Hufflepuff Gold Cups and snakes, right?"

"Yes."

Gu Moli nodded, and the shadow of the room covered half of his face, making Hua Qiong a little unable to see his appearance: "Boss? How... Well, how did he die? ”

"I don't know."

Gu Moli shook his head: "I also just came, and when I came, the situation was already like this, there were no wounds on my body, and there were no traces of fighting, but I was dead..."

"No wounds?"

Hua Qiong frowned when she heard this, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Boss, where are we going next?" ”

“.... What do you think? Snake or Hufflepuff Gold Cup? ”

"Huh? I think? ”

Hua Qiong didn't know why, and suddenly became a little restrained.... If you insist on saying it, it's like a student who is honestly mentioned by name in class and asked to stand up and answer a question.

But in the end, she took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice:

"I think I should go to the snake."

“..... Why? ”

"First of all, the Great Snake Nagini, the location of this Horcrux is easier to guess than the Hufflepuff Gold Cup."

Hua Qiong saw that Gu Moli actually handed over the initiative to herself, and suddenly had a feeling that "the seniors on the detective are testing themselves", and the whole person became serious, as if she wanted to perform well.

"The serpent Nagini, this is Voldemort's pet, and it doesn't technically exist at Hogwarts."

"But just like Harry Potter who was replaced by the Mirror of Eris, the great snake Nagini should also be replaceable, and the same snake, there is a very easy replacement to find in Hogwarts."

"The basilisk in the Slytherin chamber."

"That's right."

Gu Moli confirmed Hua Qiong's guess, and Hua Qiong also continued with some excitement: "There is another point, that is, I suspect that Dumbledore died at the hands of the basilisk!" After all, there are no scars, I can only think of some kind of means of instant death, the eyes of the basilisk are just one, of course, it may also be a killing curse, but considering Dumbledore's strength, I think the basilisk terrier is a little more reliable.... Right? ”

Gu Moli didn't deny or affirm, he just pursed his lips: ".... That's it. ”

"The most important point...."

Speaking of this, Hua Qiong finally came to the conclusion of her reasoning along the way: ".... I suspect it's all Voldemort's plot. ”

Hearing this, Gu Moli raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Oh? ”

"On the basis?"

"There are three according to it."

Hua Qiong stretched out three fingers and said solemnly: "First, boss, do you think that the difficulty of this script hero trial achievement is too low?" ”

"It's obviously supposed to be a difficult ranked script, but the Hero Trial achievement only requires the collection of seven Horcruxes, and the test that needs to be experienced to collect Horcruxes, although it can't be said to be simple, is definitely not too difficult, at least we have successfully collected five by now."

"So I suspect that this Hero Trial should not be limited to collecting Horcruxes."

"Second, boss, do you remember the system prompt we saw when we first entered the ruins?"

“YOU KNOW WHO IS COMING BACK！”

"The mystery man is coming back."

"Collecting seven Horcruxes, the imminent return of the mystery man, coupled with Dumbledore's death, I suspect that all of this is a conspiracy to resurrect Voldemort."

"Dumbledore was killed by Voldemort's manipulation of the basilisk, and the collection of seven Horcruxes itself is probably just a pretense, and when it is really collected, Voldemort may be resurrected directly with the help of Horcruxes, and then the difficulty of the whole game will suddenly rise to hell mode..."

Hearing this, Gu Moli suddenly questioned: "But at that time, we had already completed the Hero Trial, right?" ”

"That's not right."

Hua Qiong shook his head: "The requirement of the Heroic Trial is to [safely collect seven Horcruxes], in other words, if you are killed by Voldemort after collecting the Horcruxes, then the Heroic Trial may still fail." ”

"I don't know what happened to your side, boss, but on my side, the Horcrux trials have been trying to weaken my strength, which is very abnormal, according to common sense, if Voldemort is really afraid that the Horcruxes will be collected, then he should use the Horcruxes to kill me, but this is not the case."

It's like Ravenkla's tiara.

The system indicates that you have been attacked by dark magic, but the result is only a weakening of combat effectiveness instead of death.

This is clearly problematic.

"I suspect this may be to pave the way for Voldemort's resurrection later, think about it, if we lose our strength in order to collect Horcruxes, and the Horcruxes are finally collected, but Voldemort is resurrected with them, it is almost impossible for us to clear the level, right?"

Gu Moli nodded when he heard this: "... Indeed, after passing the script, most of the attributes of my body have dropped now, and there are only a few weapons left that I can use. ”

"That's exactly what happened."

Before the words fell, Gu Moli changed his words: ".... You've just said two things, but what about the third reason? ”

"The third one."

Speaking of this, Hua Qiong couldn't help but smile slightly: "The third is the hint I got from the Ravenclaw crown, Voldemort will be resurrected after getting the Seven Horcruxes. ”

“... So I concluded that this script was actually Voldemort's conspiracy! ”

"He wants to be resurrected by our hands!"

Hua Qiong confidently said her conclusion, she really thought it carefully this time, and asked herself if there was any flaw before saying it.

After finishing speaking, Hua Qiong's eyes immediately widened, and she looked at Gu Moli expectantly with a pair of big watery eyes.

It's like a student waiting for the teacher to hand out a paper after an exam.

"Uh-huh..."

Gu Moli pondered for a moment: "... That's why you said to go find the basilisk first, firstly because it is most likely a Horcrux, and secondly because its fangs can destroy Horcruxes. ”

"That's right."

"As for your reasoning... Hmm-hmm. ”

Gu Moli nodded: "Give you eighty points." ”

“... Huh? Eighty? Why eighty? ”

"Let's go, go to the Slytherin Vault."

Ignoring the dissatisfied Hua Qiong, Gu Moli directly picked up the crystal box with the Gryffindor sword behind the desk, and then strode out of Dumbledore's office.
