Chapter 97: Through the Trapdoor (4)

They carefully pressed their ears to the door at the entrance and listened silently—there seemed to be a human voice coming from the passage in the distance, and someone was approaching this way!

"Is it Brandi? They're finally here~" Harry was excited to open the door for them, but as soon as he held the doorknob with his hand, he noticed something unusual, and the voice outside seemed to be just a person...... And he was talking to himself like crazy.

"Oops! It's Quirrell! Hermione's face suddenly became terrified, Brandi, didn't they follow Quirrell to the treasure house, at this time, it would be Quirrell who arrived first, then Brandi and the two of them-

"Let's go, we can't just wait here to die!" Harry grabbed Hermione's arm, found a random door and slammed in, just before he could close it. He heard Quirrell's voice in the entrance room, and his heart immediately tightened.

"Master, did you hear anything just now, it looks like there are still a few cunning little mice lost in the Sinista level."

Harry didn't dare to take a breath, and sure enough, there was no response in the room, and Quirrell himself actually started talking again. "Yes...... They must have just chosen to act on the same night - everyone has selfish desires, and the treasure house is a magical place that no normal person will share with others. Barton must have kept the secret there, yes master. I can swear there will never be a second person who knows about Barton and his little girlfriend trapped in the vault - just like you did to Lightmanson. ”

There was a creak from the entrance room, and then a door slammed shut. They seem to have chosen a different path.

For a moment, the world was eerily quiet.

The blood in Harry's body was clotting rapidly, and fear was tearing at his heart...... Brandi they... He's dead? His mind went blank, just involuntarily looking at Hermione beside him. He felt his robe clutched weakly.

"No...... No, it shouldn't be like this......" As if all her strength had been drained, Hermione leaned limply against the wall and slid on the floor. "They must be lying to us, aren't they, Harry. Brandi: He has an invisibility cloak. ”

Harry didn't know how to comfort her, so he crouched down and gently patted Hermione on the back. "Yes, Hermione, they're not dead, Quirrell must be just boasting, wishful thinking that Brandi will never get out. He can't beat Brandy, can he...... They've fought in the Forbidden Forest...... They may have just used trickery to trap them somewhere temporarily. ”

"That's right...... It must be so! Hermione stood up, her eyes red, but she held back her tears. She wiped the corners of her eyes vigorously. "We need to hurry! Quirrell says they're trapped in the vault and we need to stop Quirrell from getting the Philosopher's Stone before we go to the Great Hall to save Brandi and them! ”

"But before then, you should probably tell me what you're hiding, shouldn't you?" Seemingly infected by Hermione's strength, Harry smiled slightly.

…………

The level didn't seem complicated, to put it bluntly, it was just a set of rooms, but it wasn't until Harry and the two of them had been scurrying around in it for almost half an hour that they realized how terrible this place really was - the murals on the walls of these rooms were always changing, and there was never an end, they had tried to choose the door directly opposite, but only when they passed through the twenty-fourth room in a row, they had to stop in frustration. Because the next room will always be four exits...... In fact, Hogwarts can't have so many rooms, can it?

But the only thing to be thankful for is that in the process of scurrying around like rats, they actually stumbled back to the entrance where they first entered.

"This is a problem...... Once inside, you'll get lost, and the room inside must have been enchanted and will be randomly teleported to other rooms. Hermione paced back and forth in the small space irritably, his patience quickly eroding. If we don't know how to crack this level, we won't be able to get out of here! She thought anxiously, and suddenly pulled out her wand.

Harry hurriedly stopped her. "What are you going to do here? You don't have any magic anymore, and you still have to be strong? ”

"Get out of the way Harry, I've got to blow these doors open. Otherwise, I wouldn't have figured out the structure of this place! Hermione pushed Harry away from her. We wasted half an hour! Quirrell might have gotten the Philosopher's Stone by now, but are you thinking that the two of us are stuck in the entrance and watching Voldemort come out of it! ”

She spoke in such a polite tone that she didn't even bother to call the mysterious person. Harry was worried that Hermione would be forced to cast the spell, but he couldn't think of anything else right now, so he could only touch his nose in embarrassment and get out of the way.

Hermione's wand began to wave...... She's exhausted, but she doesn't have the patience to wait, she has to hurry, she has to hurry- huh? What is that!

She rubbed her eyes, the doorknob of the door directly in front of her wand...... It's actually turning slowly!

Oops! Quirrell is back so soon!

"Hermione! Come on! Harry didn't have time to hide his voice anymore, and he shuddered and pulled out his wand - Quirrell would be in this room in the next second, and he couldn't put Hermione in danger!" I'm here to stop him! Go back and inform Dumbledore! ”

He pushed the stunned Hermione into another room, and with a wave of his wand, the silver-white spell was ready to be unleashed, and he decided to strike first!

The moment the door opened, Harry shouted—"Tarantallegra! ”

The dark shadow behind the door had no idea that someone would attack him here, and before he was caught off guard, Taruntera's spell hit him in the chest - the man's legs and feet began to shake violently, and he couldn't help but fly up. Something is shouted in his mouth.

"One library!"

Kicked the door shut.

This is a life-saving kick! Harry, who was tense and nervous, couldn't help but cheer, his heels turned and he was about to run backwards, where did he still have the idea of chasing after the victory, all the evil spells he had learned were probably not enough for Voldemort to wave his wand, he needed to run quickly......

He hurried to the opposite door and grabbed the doorknob—

"Brandy!"

At this moment, a familiar female voice suddenly came from the room where the dark shadow was, and Harry couldn't help but pause at his feet.

What, Brandi?

No way! Harry reflexively turned around and ran towards the room - but someone was faster than him, and Hermione flew over like an arrow from a string, and she opened the door, screaming in surprise! "Brandi! Parvati! Great, you're all right! ”

She kicked her legs, made a standing long jump, and threw herself into the shadows behind the door.

………………

I said...... Harry, what do you think, using the Tarantera Dance Charm on Voldemort? Brandi was suffocating from exhaustion, and even though Harry had lifted his spell in time, Brandi's leg cramped...... He was grinning and stamping his feet to straighten his muscles. Hermione, who had already calmed down from her ecstasy, was blushing awkwardly, hugging Parvati and whispering in the corner - she was so impulsive that she actually pounced on Brandy, almost crushing Brandi to death.

"In a hurry, I didn't put on my shoes directly, so I'm already very sensible!" Harry muttered unconvinced, a relaxed smile on his face. "What's going on with you and Parvati...... Didn't Hermione say you were going to stop Quirrell? Why did he come out first? ”

He keenly noticed that when he finished asking this question, Brandi and the others fell into silence and dead silence, and their faces were dejected.

"We were tricked by Quirrell......" There was a moment of silence, Brandi smiled wryly and pulled out four broken wands from his pocket, and met the two men with shocked eyes, he told them what had happened earlier. The chamber couldn't be opened except for spells, and we were counting on Hermione to come and save us—who knew there was a chamber in it, and we found it by chance, and we were teleported back to the door of the vault. Here's the problem...... I seem to have released something that shouldn't exist in this world. Alas......"

He looked sadly at Hermione, who was amused by Parvati's jokes. "It's troublesome, it's an ancient thing, if there's any danger, where can ordinary wizards deal with it!"

Harry was much more optimistic about it. "Can you come out or thanks to it? Let us solve the things in the future! What do you care so much about? That's right...... What do you mean? That's the unicorn! ”

Brandi waved his hand weakly, "Don't mention it, that ghost thing is as stubborn as a donkey, and after coming out of the treasure house, he yelled to go back to the Forbidden Forest, and Parvati gave candy to no avail...... In the end, we had to take the risk of opening the castle gates and going back to the Forbidden Forest. Then it was just a rush up from the first floor, and Lou Wei put a harp that would play automatically, and we went straight down - what the hell have you been through? I saw Ron on the other side of the board, and he was lying on top of the tattered knight's chess piece, his robe pierced by a riding spear, like a piece of bacon that had been hung up and dried...... By the way, Harry, I've got to say sorry - the Cloak of Invisibility has left us in the entrance room of the First Seal, and I'll help you get it back when we're done with this ticket. ”

Harry sighed in frustration, he had thought he could use the power of the unicorn and the cloak of invisibility against Quirrell - while Brandi and the others had returned safely, what could they do without a wand?

"Alright, let's stop here......" After a few people chattered and sorted out all the stories that happened on both sides, Brandi waved his hand, "We need to hurry up and complete the test of this level, Quirrell is not as scary as you think, he has used up almost all his magic in the treasury, we can easily defeat him!" ”

"But we can't get through this place at all." After going through a lot of ups and downs, Hermione finally regained her original sanity, "The murals in these rooms don't seem to have any patterns, and the whole labyrinth has no boundaries...... If we use stupid methods to find an exit, we might all be trapped here. ”

"Don't worry about that, Hermione." Brandi laughed and said, "I think Parvati knows what these paintings mean......

Kindness??

Harry and Hermione opened their mouths in surprise as they looked at Parvati, who was posing proudly beside them.

What they don't know, the silly girl actually knows?
