In the crypt and dungeon buried deep underground, there are many traces of ancient civilization that Ens has never seen. There are long tombs filled with unknown characters, huge stone doors that are half-opened and half-hidden, and huge murals one after another.

Along the way, Ens looked back and forth with his glowing wand, feeling a little dizzying. Everything here felt like he had come to another world.

He even found a strange formation in the center of the underground palace that covered almost the entire tomb.

Look at the middle of the formation, an old floor-to-ceiling mirror is placed there so quietly, and the countless horizontal and vertical blue silk threads around it clearly show that this formation is still in operation.

Since the chamber looked so suspicious, and Ens thought Malfoy should be ahead of him, he didn't even think to go in and take a closer look.

After a brisk walk, Ens hurried through several burial chambers with a broomstick that had accompanied him all the way, and finally stepped into the huge main burial chamber located in the deepest part of the underground palace.

Then, he was completely shocked by the amazing monument that was completely black.

"This ...... What is it? ”

The main chamber was so large that it couldn't even reach the top of the wand's glowing spell, and even if you looked up, you could only see darkness. And the black monument rose straight from the floor tiles of the tomb and sank straight into the dim shadows.

Just as he was standing at the entrance of the tomb, deeply shocked by this huge stone tablet like black jade, a voice of great vicissitudes suddenly sounded in his head. He couldn't understand a word, but he was incredibly clear enough to understand what it meant.

“…… Not...... Strength...... You want power......"

When Ens heard this, he was immediately stunned, and he couldn't help but want to walk towards the stone tablet. The feeling, as if the voice had infinite allure, made him almost irresistible.

Yes, that's like ...... Continues to captivate his soul!

The next moment Ens suddenly realized this, his pace abruptly stopped. Because he finally realized how similar the current situation was to the previous trials in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets—as soon as he stopped, he would have to bear an incomparably terrible burden, even if it was stretched out dozens of times for even a second!

Under the bewitchment of that voice, holding on to one's will had become an extremely difficult task.

"If it weren't for Salazar Slytherin's trial, I'm afraid I'd have lost myself by now, right?" Ens, who was holding his knees and supporting his body, couldn't help but think, "I just don't know, what the hell is this...... How long is it going to last......"

His knees were trembling, and his heart was full of instinctive desire to move forward, but he vaguely knew that he could not let it go unchecked. His instinct told him that if he listened to the bewitchment of that voice, he would really be finished.

“…… Strength...... Do you want ...... Force ......"

To Enns' senses, the time he struggled to maintain his will was as slow as the starry sky, but it was only about ten seconds later.

When the moment came when the sound that kept swirling in his head came to an abrupt end, his whole body went limp, and he fell to his knees on the square floor tiles and gasped for breath.

"Finally...... Is it over? Could it be ...... What kind of damn trial is this? ”

While gasping for air, Ens spoke in fits and starts. Of course, he didn't expect anyone to respond to his complaints, but to his surprise, a clear turquoise glow lit up in the darkness above his head.

"Successor, it's good that you've resisted the temptation of your soul...... If you obey the will of that voice, you will become a walking corpse and lose yourself forever. ”

When Ens heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then Huo Ran raised his head.

"Are you...... Who...... Salazar Slytherin? ”

After he saw the green shadow in the sky and guessed the identity of the other party, he noticed one thing - what the other party said just now was in the language of snakes.

However, his inquiry was unanswered, for the figure, though looking down, seemed to ignore him completely.

"And just now, you did persevere to the end, and the soul mark I branded for you in the secret room also successfully awakened this memory that I kept in the snake staff."

The Slytherin Illusion was just talking to himself, and had no sense of self at all. As he himself said, this green shadow is just a memory image that he left behind thousands of years ago.

But from this sentence, Ens knew one thing - even if Malfoy had been here before him, he would definitely not be able to awaken the magical image of Slytherin, because he obviously would not have the so-called "soul mark".

While Ens was secretly rejoicing, the Slytherin Phantom had continued.

"Now, my successor...... The person who should die under the stele has been suppressed by me, and it is impossible for him to affect you again in a short time. You can climb to the top of the stele and receive my gift to you......"

"Uh......"

Ens was stunned for a moment, he looked at the incredibly tall black monument in front of him, and then at the broom in his hand, and couldn't help but feel a little more surprised in his heart.

"Could it be that the wizards of that era could fly at will?"

With the Slytherin image of "climbing to the top of the stone" so easily and naturally, Ens couldn't help but feel that his conjecture might be a little more likely.

After a moment's amazement, he stepped on his broomstick and soared into the sky, flying straight to the height of the Slytherin Phantom.

"Oooh, oh!"

He didn't expect that it was actually very close to the top of the tomb. Therefore, when he found this, he could only slow down quickly and turn sideways, barely avoiding the tragedy of crashing into the dome of the tomb.

At this moment, the image of Slytherin, who had given time for the person to reach the summit, began to speak again.

"Successor, pull up the jade serpent staff I left here, it will help you no longer be disturbed by the power of the Monument of Bewitchment. and amplify the magic you cast, while providing you with a certain amount of mana replenishment......"

It was time to reap the benefits, and Ens was particularly excited. Having just descended from his broomstick to the top of the monument, he rushed to the short staff that was emitting emerald green light, and he could clearly see that the so-called "jade snake staff" was being stuck diagonally between several pieces of rubble on top of the black stone tablet.

"Click—"

Since the Hufflepuff Chamber found the unsolved letter clues, he has gone through a lot of efforts along the way.

Whether it's consulting and translating ancient texts, going through trials in secret rooms, and of course, the hard flight along the way...... He was even almost robbed of the last fruits by Malfoy.

Truth be told, he couldn't wait.

Before the Slytherin could finish speaking, Ens grabbed the glowing snake staff and pulled it up.

At the moment when the snake staff left the black monument, a cold and majestic aura swept over Ens's body in the blink of an eye. In that breath, there seemed to be a touch of vicissitudes and loneliness from antiquity, which made Deens seem to be engulfed in an endless darkness for a moment.

Soon, Maca, who was still miles away at this time, also noticed this astonishing movement.

But in the next moment, there was another clear coldness from the snake staff that Ence was holding in his hand, sweeping away the terrible feeling just now.

All that is happening right now is naturally imperceptible to Slytherin's images. And what he said in Parseltongue is still going on-

"Successor, if you accept this gift from me, it means that you will accept my next mission. Take my serpent staff, recite the incantation as I receive, and give the power I left in it to the basilisk I have cultivated—"

At this, the Slytherin Phantom burst out laughing.

"Sneer...... Hahahaha...... Ridiculous and despicable Helbo, all the fragments of his soul will be erased by the monsters he has researched...... Hahaha......"

At this moment, the huge stone monument at the feet of Ens shook without warning, as if something was about to break out from under the stone tablet. And at the same moment, Ens, who was standing on the stone monument and listening to the old laughter of Slytherin, was also immediately dumbfounded.

"Basilisk?" He said with his mouth half-open in astonishment, "What the hell is that—"

He was only halfway through his words when he remembered in the increasingly violent shaking of his feet. Yes, in the Chamber of Secrets, another Slytherin phantom seems to have mentioned some power, gold...... And basilisk......

But......

"You old pit with a sparse beard, why didn't you say it earlier!" He yelled at Salazar Slytherin, who was still laughing, "This time...... I'm afraid I'm going to be killed by you this time! ”

Of course, it was useless to scold any more, so Ens just vented casually, and immediately stepped on the broom and soared into the air, and rushed straight to the grave without doing anything.

Obviously, in the absence of that basilisk, he would never be able to use his strength alone. Rather than hesitating here to see what will crawl out under the giant monument, it is better to slip away as soon as possible, and if you are lucky, you may be able to pick up a small life.

And just as Ens quickly swept towards the door of the tomb, even the entire underground palace trembled slightly. At this moment, there was only one thought left in his head-

"Aren't you going to just bury me alive?"
