Riddle hissed from time to time, and vipers everywhere responded to him in a neat line. Under their leadership, Shiwen and the others once again came to the cave that had been explored by the ghosts Shiwen and Aurelius before.

Under the control of the old Riddle snake, the viper in the cave turned into a harmless appearance of humans and animals, and obediently made way for everyone to make a wide way, even if it squeezed their companions for this.

Several large vipers crawled relentlessly in front of them to lead the way, twisting around several natural stone pillars until they reached a very secret cave entrance.

The hole was about the size of a bucket, hidden among a cloud of rocks. The entrance to the cave was also obscured by a large stone block, so that neither the ghosts Shiwen nor Aurelius had discovered it when they first explored.

Ahead, the larger vipers stopped at the entrance of the cave, neighing, but never daring to take a step forward, as if they were afraid of something.

"They said it was where the Serpent King lived." Riddle explained.

Looking at the hole with the thickness of the bucket in front of them, Xiwen and the others looked at each other.

"So we're going to crawl in?" Kama asked, frowning. He used his wand illumination to shine a picture of the hole, and found that it was so deep that there was no end in sight.

"Otherwise, what else can I do, can I still dig this hole?" Aberforth said as he eagerly rolled up his sleeves and prepared to burrow inside.

Aurelius, who was more anxious than Aberforth, stopped him and said, "I'll do it alone, and I'll wake up Nagini." ”

"No, it's too dangerous!" Aberforth shook his head. "What if she was really dehumanized and desperate to attack you? We'll go in and help you figure it out. ”

"I have the ability to protect myself, and I won't be hurt." Aurelius retorted.

"To be on the safe side......"

Just when the two were at a stalemate, the ghost Xiwen silently floated between the two.

I said...... Have you forgotten what I'm capable of? He looked at the two people who wanted to continue the debate speechlessly, and said helplessly. I can travel without looking at objects, as long as I go in and open the portal and send you through......"

"Please, Strange." Dumbledore, who had already thought of this solution, smiled at Sven, and then grabbed Aberforth and Aurelius by the arms, pulling them to his side.

Ghost Shiwen shrugged his shoulders and lowered his body down a bit, allowing his body to burrow into the ground so that his head could be in the right position at the entrance of the hole.

The white light of Nevaron came back on, illuminating the narrow tunnel ahead. Afterward, the ghost Xiwen floated forward along the tunnel.

The tunnel was clearly excavated by reptiles - the tunnel was surrounded by a very smooth and solid earthen wall, which was presumably formed by reptiles shuttling through it from time to time. In addition to this, there are occasional remains of small animals left in it.

The tunnel is sung down in its entirety and is impressively long. According to Xiwen's speed, he also drifted for about two minutes before finally reaching the end of the tunnel, followed by a wide cavern that suddenly opened up!

Illuminated by the light of Nevalon, the tunnel was open to a wide open space - a strange cave filled with stalagmites, pillars and curtains, and a clear stream flowing slowly from the depths of the cave, clear enough to see the white bed.

In the depths of the cave, next to the stream, there are several delicate stalagmites surrounding a flat stone block, forming a platform like a lotus flower.

There was a large snake coiled around the lotus-shaped platform, and her body occasionally rose and fell, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Xiwen subconsciously held his breath.

Then, realizing that he didn't need to breathe in the first place, he summoned a dimensional gate and summoned Dumbledore and them.

"It's amazing that there is such a large cave here." Dumbledore was the first to emerge from behind the portal, and looked around with interest at the strange stalagmites and stone curtains.

As he looked at it, he also saw the big snake coiled around the lotus-shaped platform.

"Aurelius, is that Nagini?" Dumbledore lowered his voice and asked Aurelius.

At this point, Aurelius' expression had already spoken for itself.

The excitement on his face was uncontrollable, and he almost subconsciously called out Nagini's name.

"Nagini!"

The serpent was suddenly awakened by Aurelius's voice, and her body swayed slightly.

Aurelius walked forward with a complicated expression. He didn't care about stepping into the stagnant water on the ground or into the stream, but walked slowly but surely until he came to the serpent's side.

Standing in front of the platform, he reached out tremblingly, trying to tentatively touch her.

Xiwen and the others in the rear watched his movements nervously, without saying a word or stepping forward to disturb.

Everyone wants to know if Nagini has really lost her humanity completely, and if Aurelius can really awaken her consciousness?

Finally, Aurelius placed his hand on the top of the serpent's head and stroked it gently. The serpent didn't make any gestures of resistance, as if feeling his comfort.

However, just when everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief, a sudden change occurred!

The serpent opened its mouth and bit down hard at Aurelius' hand!

Aurelius's right hand dissipated into a black mist, then regrouped in an instant. Although he didn't suffer much physical damage, his expression was full of pain.

"Aurelius!" Aberforth immediately tried to rush forward, but was stopped by Dumbledore.

"Tom, try the snake tongue!" Dumbledore hugged Aberforth's shoulders tightly as he shouted to Riddle.

Riddle made a "hiss" sound in a knowing voice, trying to speak to Nagini in a snake voice.

However, the frenzied Nagini only paused for a moment, but unscathed to launch a further attack on Aurelius!

"The old snake is dead...... Riddle looked at the serpent who was still attacking in disbelief, and his expression was dazed.

"Maybe it's a good thing that the old snake is not working." At this time, Newt said loudly next to him. "This just proves that Nagini has not completely lost the 'human' part and has completely become a viper!"

He then quickly opened his suitcase and released another fantastic animal.

It stands to reason that snakes cannot hear sounds, but can only feel vibrations. But now that Rowling has written the old snake language, she doesn't care about the scientific reasonableness......
