"Fawkes-" Harry looked at the phoenix Fawkes on his shoulder, and the Sorting Hat in his hand, he was also a little puzzled, why did these two things suddenly appear?

At this time, Ning An's voice suddenly sounded: "Hold on to the basilisk, Harry!" I'm going to deal with Riddle. He seemed to be moving quickly from pillar to pillar, his voice erratic.

"Oh? You want to deal with me? Riddle was still standing in the middle, and Hermione, Ron, and the others had dispersed and hid behind the pillar, and he said with a mocking smile:

"It's too much to do."

As he spoke, the wand suddenly pointed into the darkness - with a "boom", a vicious curse flew out and hit a stone pillar.

"Harry, be careful!"

Hermione's screams rang out, and Harry felt only a cold touch, as if something slippery was wrapping around him.

"Faint!"

Hermione and Walt drew their wands almost at the same time, their eyes half-squinted, carefully trying to keep their eyes as low as possible, while chanting incantations at the serpent that was about to roll Harry up.

Two red rays of light flew out with a "bang" and smashed the snake's blue-black skin, but as if the light was shining on a mirror, the spell was suddenly bounced off by the snakeskin, sliding upward, and shattering a stone pillar above the secret room.

"Hell, magic doesn't work on this guy!" Ron saw this too, and he just glanced at it and hurried back behind the pillar, then shouted a warning to Hermione.

At the same time, the big crimson bird on Harry's shoulder, fluttering its wings, flew into the sky at once, like a torch in the darkness, flew straight towards the basilisk, and pierced the serpent's eyes with its sharp claws.

"Get out of here, you damn bird!"

Riddle stretched out his wand, and a curse was fired at Fawkes.

However, Pani, who was hiding on the side, suddenly jumped out and shouted:

"Armor protection!"

The curse was flicked off, and Riddle flicked his wand in exasperation, and in an instant, three or four curses were striking at Pani at the same time.

The serpent was a little annoyed by Fawkes's interference, and Harry felt that the snake seemed to loosen a little, and he was able to catch his breath a little.

Clutching the Sorting Hat, he muttered supplicantly:

"Help me, help me, please think of a way-"

It was his only weapon at the moment, and as he prayed, the hat grew tighter and tighter, and finally he could barely break his hands out of it.

Riddle's angry screams and Fawkes's high-pitched birdsong kept coming from his ears, and on the other side, the basilisk seemed to be badly injured, and he let go of Harry and rolled on the ground and screamed.

The sounds of Parney and Samantha chanting spells, Walter, Laurel, Ron, Hermione, casting spells, or shouting all poured into Harry's ears, but he was surprisingly calm.

Then Harry felt his hands sink and something seemed to fall out of his hat.

He opened his eyes, adjusted to the darkness of the environment, and saw that he held a magnificent long sword in his hand, with a silver blade and a large ruby inlaid with the hilt—bright and moving.

"Oh my God, a sword"

Harry muttered to himself that the Chamber of Secrets was already in chaos, and the basilisk was blinded by Fawkes's poke, twisted and rolled to the side, and was biting Fawkes in the air with his senses.

Riddle angrily urged the basilisk as he unleashed a bunch of evil spells and shot at Pani and the others who were in his way.

Harry involuntarily lifted his sword, mustered up all his courage, and ran towards the basilisk not far away.

The people fighting in the secret room did not notice it, but from the steps, the peeping eyes in the dark.

Snape and McGonagall watched it all from a short distance.

The two of them had just slid down the secret passage of the bathroom when they saw this scene in front of them.

"Oh my God, what's this doing?" McGonagall pulled out her wand and hurried down the steps.

"Wait"

Snape held out a hand against McGonagall's chest, and he looked at the situation in the Chamber of Secrets with a grim expression.

"What are you thinking? Professor Snape? McGonagall glared at Snape in surprise and whispered dissatisfiedly, "Those children are in danger, we have to go up and help them."

"I think you should wait—"

Snape stared straight at Harry as he rushed forward with his sword, his hand reaching into his arms and clenching his wand.

"What are you waiting for?!"

McGonagall's tone became more and more anxious, and she tried to look into the chamber from time to time, but because of the distance and the dim light, he could barely see a few Hogwarts students she knew.

Snape didn't respond, he took his wand and slid cautiously through the darkness, slowly approaching the warband in the center of the chamber.

"It looks like this group of kids is coping well, and we might be able to take another look — and I guess that's what it means." Snape whispered to McGonagall behind him, hoarsely voiced.

The cat was hunched up, and Professor McGonagall followed Snape lightly like a nimble black cat, but the expression on her face was one of confusion and dissatisfaction.

"What does Dumbledore mean?"

Snape looked at him with some suspicion, but the gloomy Potions Professor remained staring at the field, wand in his hand, as if he was going to fire the spell at any moment.

Seeing that Snape's movements did look like he was ready to protect them, McGonagall held back her emotions a little and calmly pushed her glasses.

"Well, maybe it was really a trial that Dumbledore gave these young children? Oh – Fox is too. McGonagall noticed the beautiful big bird attacking the basilisk in the air, its fiery red feathers standing out like a torch in the darkness.

"It looks like Dumbledore really had a plan." Having settled her mind, McGonagall finally focused on looking to the center.

I saw a handsome young man in a Hogwarts uniform firing a curse unscrupulously, while the Hogwarts students on the other side were hiding behind the thick stone pillars, shuttling back and forth, and fighting back with spells from time to time.

"What do you want to do!? Harry - Potter?! ”

Riddle saw Harry rushing towards the basilisk with his sword in hand. He let out a high-pitched, rapid laugh and taunted loudly, waving his wand as if he was about to cast a curse.

Snape had straightened up and raised his wand.

"Except for your weapons—"

Suddenly, however, a red light erupted from the edge of a stone wall, striking the base of Riddle's wand with great speed and precision.

The wand flew upside down, Riddle's pale cheeks as if they were bloody for a moment, and he stared angrily at Pani who had cast a disarming spell on him? Starr, shouting:

"How dare you—"

I saw him grasp lightly into the air, and the wand that flew out upside down appeared in his hand again.

"How dare you—knock me off—my wand!?"

A shrill roar resounded throughout the chamber, as scorching heat erupted from Riddle's wand head as unending as his burning fury.

The flames that erupted from the chamber lit up the chamber in an instant, sweeping the darkness through the sky, and the blazing flames twisted together, entwined, tumbled, and devoured, until finally turned into a huge fiery serpent, burning with terrible flames, staring at the students in the chamber.

"Go"

Riddle picked up his wand, hissing from his mouth, and then the fiery snake twisted its huge body, and almost instantly, rushed behind the stone pillar, and circled wildly, only to see Parney tumbling out in embarrassment, the school uniform on his body had been scorched, and his golden hair had been burned a few strands, he didn't dare to stop, and rushed to the stone pillar on the other side.

"Hahaha-climb,, I see how many times you can dodge-" Riddle glared excitedly and screamed in arrogance.

Harry felt like his arm was about to fall out, this gorgeous sword wasn't light even for an adult to lift, let alone let a teenager carry it and dash forward.

All his strength was drained, and the wand pinned to his waist was about to fall, but he didn't have the strength to think about the wand, he just rushed towards the basilisk with all his strength with all his courage.

Riddle's laughter kept ringing in his ears, so shrill and so unbridled.

"What about Ning An? Why wasn't he heard? Is he fighting Riddle? What happened to Hermione and Ron? ”

Thoughts crossed Harry's mind, but he couldn't afford to spend a second more thinking about it, he could only run forward.

The explosion of the clash continued, and Riddle's screams were heard

"What do you want to do? Harry – Potter? ”

Harry's heart tightened, he emptied his strength, and his feet were a few steps faster, only to feel that the basilisk in front of him seemed to be 108,000 miles away from him, and he couldn't get close.

"Hurry, hurry!" Harry thought to himself anxiously, and then Riddle shouted angrily

"How dare you ——!"

The sound of "purring" sounded behind him, and even with his back to the other, Harry could feel the scorching heat and dazzling light, and Riddle must have used a powerful spell.

Immediately afterward, a loud pop and crackling roared behind him like a firecracker, followed by Riddle's piercing screech.

"Ron, Hermione—"

Harry's heart tightened, "Will anyone get hurt—" Countless vague and strange thoughts swirled around his mind, almost driving him insane.

Luckily, Harry was only one step away from the basilisk in front of him, and Fawkes hovered in the sky, flapping its wings and a pair of sharp claws, clawing at the basilisk's head from time to time.

And the basilisk was also teased by this big bird, twisting the snake's body, coiling into a ball, nesting on the ground, and viciously biting Fawkes with a bloody mouth.

Without time to care, Harry put aside his distractions, his hearing was useless at this moment, Riddle's screams were far away from him, and even the Gryffindor sword in his hand was a little lighter, and only the dreaded basilisk still fighting in front of him.

Harry's gaze was determined, and he snarled as he drained all the strength and courage in his body

"Ahhh

One step, two steps, step on the hard, cold skin of the basilisk, and find yourself.

The basilisk seemed to be aware of this, and it turned its head to sense something creeping up its body, as if humiliated, the basilisk opened its foul-smelling maw, and the snake's fangs glowed with a faint green light, it was a deadly weapon, and the terrible monster bit Harry desperately.

Snape, who was watching from afar, suddenly stood up, his eagle-eyed eyes piercing through the space, waving his wand, a stealthy, invisible fluctuation, like an incomparably sharp razor, from one end of the chamber to the other end of the basilisk and Harry.

Harry could smell the pungent stench emanating from the basilisk's mouth, but it wasn't worth marveling at, the gaping jaws and the fangs glowing with a dark cold light represented the clearest future, as if revealing the end of his fate - death under the merciless kiss of the serpent.

Harry, however, was so calm that he calmly raised his sword encrusted with red gems, as if Godric? Gryffindor's courage flowed into his heart with the sword.

Firmly raising his sword high and facing the basilisk's bloody mouth, Harry stabbed with all his strength!

The serpent instinctively swallowed Harry in the stomach before the stab, but suddenly an invisible blade slashed through the air, silently, but viciously cut a large hole in the basilisk's jaw.

Blood splattered, and the pain of the moment paused the basilisk for a second, but it was at this second that Harry's sword pierced its mouth.

This sword is so sharp and powerful! Blood poured like a waterfall, soaking Harry's sleeves and chest, and cold snake blood spilled all over his body.

At this moment, Harry felt a black head overhead, and a strong force pushed him away, and Harry flew out to see Fawkes being bitten by a bitten basilisk in pain, his fangs digging deep into the wings of the phoenix, and the two animals tumbling and crashing against the wall of the secret room, splashing countless smoke and dust.

"Fawkes!"

Harry exclaimed, and at the same time Riddle behind him shouted:

"Ahh You damn bunches! ”

He abandoned the embarrassed Ron and the others who were being chased, and pointed his wand angrily at Harry.

"Damn! Damn it! - If it weren't for the damn little Ginny's weakness, even if it were an adult! Even if it's an adult! ”

He screamed, sending the fiery serpent to pounce on Harry with ferocity.

Harry suddenly felt so tired that he couldn't muster any strength, and he could only barely run a few steps towards the wall, where there was Fawkes lying in the corner and dying, and Harry still wanted to make sure what was going on with the big bird he loved.

But the fiery serpent wouldn't give him any more chances, and with the raging flames and the boundless fury of the spellcaster, the fiery serpent roared and pounced on Harry, threatening to engulf him.

"Hum—"

Suddenly, a birdsong sounded, and Fawkes, who had fallen to the ground, used all his energy and flew towards the fiery serpent, as if he wanted to use his last life to shield Harry from danger.

"Fawkes!"

Harry cried out in despair, and all eyes in the chamber were focused on the sight of a large, brilliant golden-red bird that had plunged into the mouth of the Flame Serpent.

"Oh-no! Fox! ”

Harry turned his head, tears of sadness falling from the corners of his eyes, and in order to protect him, the cute big bird saved him more than once.

But he didn't have time to mourn, because it looked like he was going to die in the mouth of another serpent in the next second.

As if fate had been sealed and could not be changed, Harry felt that he could no longer find any strength in his body—looking calmly at the serpent's head, the boy silently thought, "Am I going to die?"

A stirring sound echoed through the chamber, and Fawkes flew out singing from the flames of the serpent, his long tail feathers glowing and red.

As if reborn from the ashes, Fawkes' golden and red feathers became more vibrant, hovering in mid-air and shining movingly.
