While Harry was studying Occlumency, Duten appeared on the edge of a cliff. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It is a cliff located by the sea, and below the cliff is a raging tide, and the waves crash against the rocks, making a rumbling sound.

He stood on the shore and watched for a long time, and then suddenly stepped into the void. Then the figure spread, and the whole person flew rapidly in the air like a wild goose, ignoring the fierce sea breeze blowing in his face, and landed steadily on a stone pillar protruding from the sea.

And opposite him, a huge cave appeared, and this cave was the seaside cave where the Horcruxes were stored.

Du Teng saw the position, and a dodge flew into the cave, quickly flew into the depths, and landed on the island in the middle of the lake that he was very familiar with.

There was a stone platform with a dent in it, and the dentation was filled with a clear liquid, and in the deepest part of the liquid there was a locket looming.

The Slytherin locket, a Slytherin relic, was stored in a pool of enchanted poisonous water, and there were only two ways for anyone to get it out. Either rely on great power to break the spell covering the poisonous water and the stone platform, or use the golden cup at hand to drink the poisonous water on the stone platform one by one.

If you pour out the poisonous water, new poisonous water will gush out of the stone platform, endlessly, and it is impossible to pour it dry.

And this spell is also very powerful, it is not easy to break it, in the original book, Dumbledore is such a powerful wizard, he can be called the strongest white wizard, he must drink the poisoned water one by one, and even ordered Harry to force him to drink it when he can't drink it.

Harry was naturally reluctant to do this, but Voldemort's threat was imminent, and he had to do so.

In the end, Dumbledore's death had a lot to do with this poisonous water, which seriously harmed his life and health, so that his strength decreased rapidly. Although there was a plan in his death, it is an indisputable fact that the poisonous water seriously injured him.

This also shows how terrifying the spell on this stone platform is, but fortunately, Du Teng does not need to do this.

He stretched out his hand, carrying a Horcrux ring on his finger, and through a special spell, he made a connection to the locket at the bottom of the pool. The locket began to tremble at a speed visible to the naked eye, and became more and more intense, and finally, it forcibly broke through the shackles of the spell, jumped out of the pool, and fell into Du Teng's palm.

"The third one, I'll take a look at the next one...... Well, let's go find the Ravenclaw crown. ”

Du Teng chuckled, dodged, and disappeared from the cave.

……

Meanwhile, Harry's Occlumency training session continued.

He was shocked to hear Snape tell him that Voldemort had sensed his presence.

"How do you know?" Harry hurriedly asked, "Is this just Professor Dumbledore's speculation, or—?"

"I said," said Snape, sitting rigidly in his chair, his eyes like two slits, "call me sir." ”

"Yes, sir," said Harry, impatiently, "but how do you know-?"

"It's enough for us to know." Snape snapped, "The important thing is that the Dark Lord is now aware that you can sense his thoughts and feelings. He also deduced that the situation could be reversed, that is, he had thought that he might be able to perceive your thoughts and feelings—"

"He might be trying to manipulate me?" Harry asked, quickly adding, "Sir?" ”

"Possibly." Snape said coldly, nonchalantly, "This goes back to Occlumency." ”

Snape drew his wand from his robes, and Harry's body tensed. But Snape simply lifted the tip of his staff to his temple and thrust it into the greasy roots of his hair. When he took the wand away, there was a strand of silver attached to the tip of the wand, like thick spider silk. He ripped it off and let it fall softly into the meditation basin, where it swirled into a silvery white, neither gas nor liquid. Snape raised his wand to his temple twice more and added the silver substance to the stone basin. He didn't explain, just carefully lifted the meditation basin to the side shelf, then turned his wand to Harry.

"Stand up and pull out your wand, Potter."

Harry stood up nervously, and the two faced each other across the table.

"You can disarm me with your wand, or defend yourself in any other way you can think of." Snape said.

"What are you going to do?" Harry asked, looking at Snape's wand in fear.

"I'm going to get into your brain," Snape whispered, "and we're going to see how good you can resist." I've heard you've shown resistance to the Imperius Curse...... You'll find similar abilities to use here...... Now, get ready to ...... Regent! ”

Snape struck suddenly, and before Harry could prepare to resist: the office shook before his eyes and vanished, images flashing through his mind like a movie, and he couldn't see anything around him.

When he was five years old, he watched Dudley ride on his new red bike, and his heart was filled with jealousy...... At the age of nine, he was herded into a tree by his dog, Lippi, and the Dursleys laughed on the lawn...... He wears the Sorting Hat and hears it say he can go to Slytherin...... Hermione was lying in the school hospital, her face covered in black hair...... A hundred Dementors surrounded him by the dark lake...... Autumn approached him under the mistletoe......

No, there's a voice in Harry's head that says, you can't look at this, you can't look at it, it's private—

He felt a sharp pain in his knee, and Snape's office returned, and he found himself on the floor, one knee slamming the leg of the table. He looked up at Snape and saw him rubbing his wrist, where there was a red, swollen whip mark like a brand.

"Do you want to sting people?" Snape asked coldly.

"Nope." Harry said resentfully, as he got up from the ground.

"I think so." Snape said contemptuously, "You let me go too deep, you lost control. ”

"You saw them all?" Harry didn't know if he wanted to hear an answer.

"Some fragments." Snape pouted, "Whose dog is that?" ”

"Aunt Maggie's." Harry whispered, hating Snape.

"However, as a first, it's not too bad." Snape raised his wand again, "You've finally stopped me, even though you've wasted your time and energy yelling. You have to concentrate and use your brain to resist me, no need to use a magic wand. ”

"I'll try." Harry said angrily, "But you didn't tell me how! ”

"Polite, Potter," Snape said fiercely, "now, I want you to close your eyes. ”

Harry glared at him fiercely before he complied. He didn't like to stand there with his eyes closed, leaving Snape standing in front of him with his wand.

"Distractions, Potter," Snape's cold voice said, "putting aside all feelings...... but the anger at Snape still pounded through his veins like venom. Leave the anger behind? It's easier to lose a leg......

"You didn't do it, Potter...... You need to restrain yourself...... Concentrate your mind and start ......"

Harry tried to empty his mind, not to think, not to remember, not to feel......

"Again...... I counted to three...... One-two-three--Regent! ”

A black dragon bared its teeth and claws in front of him...... His parents beckoned to him in the magic mirror...... Voldemort sneered and walked over to him......

"No—!"

He fell to his knees again, his face buried in his palms, and his brain ached, as if someone was trying to pull it out of his skull.

"Get up!" Snape snapped, "Get up! You didn't do it, you didn't work hard, and you made me see the memories you feared, which is tantamount to giving me weapons! ”

Harry stood up, his heart pounding. Snape looked paler and angrier than usual, though far less angry than Harry.

"I'm working hard." He gritted his teeth and said.

"I told you to leave your feelings behind!"

"Really? I find it hard to do it right now. Harry yelled.

"Then you're easily taken advantage of by the Dark Lord!" Snape said cruelly, "Proud, emotional fools don't control their feelings, and indulge in sad memories, and make themselves so susceptible to irritation—in a word, weak men, they are vulnerable to his magic!" He's easy to hack into your mind, Potter! ”

"I'm not weak." Harry whispered, furious, thinking he might soon beat Snape.

"Then prove it! Control yourself! Snape reprimanded, "Restrain your anger and take care of your brain!" We'll come again! Get ready! Regent! ”

He watched as Uncle Vernon nailed the letterbox...... A hundred Dementors floated towards him from the lake...... He and Mr. Weasley scurried down a windowless hallway...... It was getting closer and closer to the black door at the end of the hallway...... Harry wanted to go in...... But Mr. Weasley led him to the left and down the stone steps......

"I see! I know! ”

He threw himself on the floor of Snape's office again, the scar aching like pins and needles, but the sound that came out of his mouth was joyful. He propped himself up and saw Snape glaring at him with his wand in hand. This time, Snape didn't seem to wait for Harry to resist, and then removed the spell.

"What's going on, Potter?" He asked, staring at Harry.

"I see—I remember," Harry gasped, "I just realized ......"

"Realize what?" Snape asked sharply.

Harry didn't answer right away, rubbing his forehead, still reminiscing about the moment's dizzying epiphany...... He had often dreamed of a windowless hallway with a locked door at the end for months, but never realized it was a real place. In retrospect, he realized that it was the same corridor he and Mr. Weasley had passed through as they rushed to the courtroom on August 12, leading to the Department of Mysteries, where Mr. Weasley had been bitten by Voldemort's snake......

He looked up at Snape.

"What's in the Department of Mysteries?"

"What did you say?" Snape asked softly, and Harry was pleased to see that he was a little flustered.

"I say, what's in the Department of Mysteries, sir?"

"Why do you ask this?" Snape asked slowly.

"Because," Harry stared at Snape to see how he reacted, "the corridor I saw—I've been dreaming about it for months—I just realized that it leads to the Department of Mysteries...... I think Voldemort longed for that-"

"I told you not to say the name of the Dark Lord!"

They glared at each other, and Harry's scar burned again, but he ignored it. Snape seemed a little nervous, but he tried to pretend to be cold and indifferent when he spoke.

"There's a lot of stuff in the Department of Mysteries, Potter, and there's not a lot of stuff you know, and none of them are your business. Did I make it clear? ”

"Clear." Harry said, still rubbing the scar, it was getting more and more painful.

"I want you to come over at the same time on Wednesday and we continue to practice."

"Okay." Harry said. He couldn't wait to leave Snape's office to find Ron and Hermione.

"You have to get rid of all feelings every night before you go to bed -- to make your mind blank and calm, you see?"

"Understood." Harry said, but he barely listened.

"Be careful, Potter...... I'll know if you've practiced ......"

"Yes." Harry whispered. He threw his bag over his shoulder and walked briskly towards the door. As the door opened, he looked back at Snape, who was facing away from Harry, using his wand to pluck his thoughts out of the meditation basin and carefully put them back in his head. Harry gently closed the door, the scar still aching suddenly.

In the days that followed, he continued to practice hard, and the more he came into contact with Snape, the anger in his heart became more and more uncontrollable. Finally, during a certain Occlumency training, he fought back. He used the Templar Mind on Snape, who was caught off guard and was caught off guard by his brain, and then Harry saw Snape's past.

saw how a group of people, led by his father, bullied Snape...... I saw them laughing and calling Snape's nickname...... Snape was seen hanging in mid-air by the spell of the upside-down Admiralty......

Enraged, Snape banished Harry, and Occlumency classes stopped.

Not only did Occlumency's classes stop, but D.A.'s training also stopped, as there were traitors among them, and Umbridge took one of her subordinates to fight against Harry and the others, and successfully found the Room of Requirement, and then blocked all the students here.

And the traitor who denounced all this...... It's Zhang Qiu.

This girl Harry had always liked, and even pursued.

There is no doubt that it was because of her that Umbridge found Harry and the others, who had quietly gathered and quietly trained. Then Harry, as the culprit, was taken to Dumbledore's office by Umbridge, and the Minister of Magic, Fudge, also appeared here, and Umbridge cooperated and began to constantly threaten Dumbledore.

Dumbledore was losing ground, and one person took all the blame off, and then when Fudge was about to arrest him, he actually relied on Fawkes to divert it. It is also unknown when he turned Fox into a portkey, but he did escape.

But his departure meant a power vacuum, and Umbridge successfully ascended to the throne and became another new headmaster of Hogwarts. (To be continued.) )
