157:The End of the Chamber of Secrets (Chapter 5.5K)
"Haylis!" Joel was anxious, but his body was extremely weak, and his magic power had been overdrawn in the frequent form transformation and spell casting, so he mixed a bottle of mana recovery potion in the mall and poured it into his mouth, but it would take a little time for the mana in his body to recover, and he didn't have time to rush over.
And Ron was dodging the almost mad basilisk body, and he couldn't cast a spell, seeing that the girl was about to die.
Helis couldn't breathe, Bernie's fat hand was squeezing her white neck from lack of oxygen, and the tip of his wand glowed with a soul-stirring green light, he was already murderous.
"Bernie......" Haylis called softly, softly, like her sister soothing a mischievous child, "you don't want to kill me, do you?" ”
Riddle found himself losing control of the body, the suppressed Bernie soul in his body struggling, his strength unconsciously decreasing, and the green light coming from the tip of the staff flickering and flickering.
You give me a point! Have you forgotten what you told me before? Don't you remember how those people treated you before?
Riddle scolded in his heart.
Hearing this, Bernie's soul stopped, the struggle was not strong, and Riddle was able to solve it easily.
Riddle manipulated Bernie's palm to increase the strength of his hand, and the green glow on the tip of the staff lit up again.
Hylis gently hooked the corners of her lips, her white teeth stained with blood, looking very bewitching, she managed to delay time, and now everything was under her control.
"Avada suo!" Riddle no longer hesitated, and he shouted a spell in order to mobilize his whole body magic and kill the girl who was in the way.
But he noticed that his whole body was so stiff that even the flow of magic was surprisingly slow, and Riddle could feel a slight tingling sensation in the legs of this body, and when he looked down, he saw that it was a mass of long, thick vines wrapped around it, and the spikes were digging into the thighs through the trousers.
Damn, it must have been the attack he had just launched while he was fighting for Bernie Selwyn's soul, Riddle felt like his body was under a petrification spell, and no matter what orders he gave him, his body wouldn't obey.
Joel grabbed his back and hurriedly ran over.
"Are you alright?" He used some of his newly recovered magic to conjure up a set of ropes, cast a stun spell on Bernie, and then tied up Bernie, and the wand was also collected, Haylis probably used a lot of magic to set up a trap for plants on the ground, and a group of plants of different shapes were distributed in the area between Riddle and Hayris.
Haylis clutched her neck and coughed violently, Bernie's physical condition was definitely strong among her peers, and she almost choked her out.
She waved her hand, and the wound in her abdomen ruptured open in the battle, and blood gushed outward, seeping into the cracks in the stone slabs.
Joel couldn't help but say, putting one hand around her shoulder, the other hand on the crook of her calf, and directly picked up Haylis.
The basilisk was still in a frenzy, and after losing sight, the snake could still judge its position by smell, and it aimed at Ron, who was closest to him, and the snake's head was crazy in mid-air, apparently trying to bite Ron to death.
"Joel!" Ron rolled on the ground to dodge another attack from the basilisk, "Hurry up and help!" ”
During this time, Harry had been trying to order the stone wall to open with the Parseltongue, but the stone wall was still motionless, and Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick on the other side of the stone wall had given up trying, they knew that this was some kind of prohibition set up by Slytherin, and it was difficult to open it with their abilities, and it was better to store more mana just in case.
He turned around and saw that the frontal battlefield was almost settled, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Ron, the basilisk had lost its most powerful eye, and without Riddle's command, it was like a headless fly, stumbling aimlessly everywhere.
But even so, Ron and Harry were very troublesome to deal with, and with the conditions of their magical power, the spell cast by them could not shoot through the scale armor of the basilisk, but they were scrambling to care about its large body and sharp fangs.
"Get out of the way," Joel said, placing Haylis in the corner and placing the bottle of white fresh in her hand, "I can handle the basilisk by myself, you two go take care of Professor Lockhart." ”
The two looked at each other, although they were very angry, but there was no reason to refute it, the two of them really couldn't solve the basilisk, so they could only let Joel deal with it.
The two of them obediently went to find Lockhart, who was unconscious on his back.
Joel can look directly at the basilisk and have more offensive means to use, all kinds of spells hit the basilisk scales like gua sha, and every time the basilisk attacks, he turns into a raven to dodge, the basilisk can't keep up with Joel's high mobility, he consumes the basilisk's physical strength like walking a pet.
It was blind, had a large slit in its waist, black blood was running everywhere, and its constant movement only aggravated its injuries, and after five minutes, the basilisk was dying, and it coiled up and no longer swayed its head sharply, only to notice Joel approaching it before swinging its body in self-defense.
Lockhart slowly woke up under the care of Harry and Ron, his eyes were still covered with black cloth, he couldn't see what was in front of him, he noticed that someone was touching his body, and hurriedly stepped back, he didn't think that the four children could deal with the basilisk and Bernie Selwyn who was possessed by Riddle, he woke up and felt that things were pills, and it was estimated that as soon as he pulled off the black cloth, he would see the big eyes of the basilisk.
"It's us, Harry and Ron!"
"Clams?" Lockhart quickly ripped off the black cloth and saw Harry and Ron's concerned gazes.
Seeing Lockhart's puzzled expression, the two hurriedly explained everything that happened after he fell unconscious.
The frontal battle is finally over, Joel finds an opportunity, and a thunderbolt explosion that accumulates magic power hits the basilisk's wound, and the wound that was already bloody and blurred is continued to dig inward, and a large hole with a thick bowl mouth appears, and Joel's explosion curse directly penetrates the basilisk's body.
The basilisk couldn't hold on any longer, and the heavy head of the snake slammed down.
Joel looked at the motionless basilisk and breathed a sigh of relief, even if the spell didn't kill the basilisk, it was enough to nullify most of its mobility.
A black mist appeared at the place of Bernie's Heavenly Spirit Cover, which was tied up in the corner by the Five Flowers, and the mist condensed into a human shape in the air, tall and handsome, with black hair neatly combed back to his head, dressed in a Hogwarts robe, the Slytherin emblem was shining, quite gentlemanly, but the evil expression on his face ruined all this.
He grabbed his arm in the air and retrieved the wand from Helis on the ground.
Joel turned his head when he heard Helis's loud call, and saw Tom Riddle suspended in mid-air, holding Helis's wand, muttering some mysterious and intricate incantation.
"What are you doing?" Harry realized that something was wrong, and shot a disarming charm, but it was a little far away, and Tom only dodged it slightly sideways, his mouth not stopping for a moment, and the wand in his hand sliced an abstract pattern in the air.
Joel knew that the only way to stop Tom Riddle was to find the journal and destroy the Horcrux once and for all.
Diary...... Joel didn't hesitate any longer, and spent another 100 points in the system mall to exchange for a bottle of mana restorer, this kind of magic recovery BUG has a time limit of use, every 48 hours, only the first bottle is 100% effective, and the effect will be halved with each additional bottle.
But at this point he had to do this, feeling a little more magical, Joel turned into a raven again, his wings spread and went straight at Bernie Selwyn, searching for him, Tom seemed to realize something, and a clear look of surprise appeared on his face.
He held his wand and pointed it at the raven that Joel had turned into, and a huge force rushed in, knocking Joel out of the air.
"Harry, Ron!" Joel transforms into an adult in the air, "Come and help!" ”
"Bernie Selwyn should have a black-leather diary on him," he cried out, "find it!" ”
Harry and Ron subconsciously obeyed the order, and the two children rushed straight to Bernie, who was tied up and down, and the atmosphere of the scene instantly became anxious.
Joel, on the other hand, went looking for a weapon that could destroy the Horcruxes, and all he could get was the basilisk's fangs, and he moved directly to the basilisk and waved his wand.

Another Thunderbolt Explosion Spell, this time aimed at the Basilisk's mouth.
The basilisk awoke from its slumber, screaming in pain and spitting out a thin, long fang, Joel gripped the fangs to dodge the basilisk and move in Bernie's direction.
Tom knew he couldn't stop the three of them at the same time, and focused his full attention on the incantation, his wand swinging faster and faster, blending perfectly with the sound of the incantation.
"Found it!" Harry groped Bernie's body and found the black journal in the pocket behind the butt of his trousers.
Joel was moving towards this place at high speed, followed by the basilisk, which no longer had any questions about survival, having been teased by the human cub for a long time, and had been injured three times and twice, and it was full of anger and wanted nothing more than to dismantle the man.
The basilisk scales rubbed and slid along the stone path, leaving a thick black trail of blood.
Joel flew in front of the journal, fangs in his hand stabbing hard at the center of the journal.
At the same time, the heavy head of the basilisk smashed down, and Tom Riddle finished chanting the incantation.
It all happened between the lights and the fire.
Tom Riddle let out one last cruel sentence, "You all stay here and bury me...... Ahh ”
After that, he turned into a groundhog, his body twisted and struggled, his two arms kept waving in the air, and his mouth let out a scream, and the scream almost pierced the eardrums of Joel and others, and the severity of the tragedy can be imagined.
Streams of ink spurted out of the journal, Riddle disappeared before he could finish his sentence, Helis's wand fell from mid-air, and everything in the chamber fell silent, except for the sound of ink ticking out of the diary.
The basilisk's venom had burned a hole in the diary, and black smoke was still hissing.
The basilisk's head didn't hit Joel, and Lockhart stepped forward just in time to block the basilisk's massive body with an iron armor charm.
The huge snake body slammed into the transparent barrier, and Lockhart's body had not yet recovered from the torture of the Drill Heart Curse, and the iron armor spell cast was not powerful enough, and the barrier was crumbling and almost collapsed.
The next moment the barrier was completely shattered, and Joel, who was in the shadow of the snake's head, had no room to move at all, and at this time his palm was clutching the basilisk's fangs, if he was hit by the basilisk with all his strength, he would be half-crippled if he didn't die.
Just as he was about to make a move, thick vines flew from the side, wrapped around Joel's limbs, and pulled him out directly.
It was Hayris, who, despite the loss of her wand, was given the ability to control the plants on the slate, and she made the most of her paralyzing tentacles to save Joel from the head of the basilisk.
The basilisk's body fell heavily on the stone slab, causing a vibration in the secret room, and a lot of rubble fell from the stone pillars around it.
The full force of the blow had exhausted all the strength it had left in its body, and it was now sleepy and just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
The previous human boy was dead, the basilisk was very sure of this, and it was extremely sad in its heart, since Salazar Slytherin left Hogwarts, it had been trapped in a secret room that did not see the light of day for thousands of years, there was no one of its kind, and no one wanted to talk to it, for thousands of years, it was a snake alone, and it could only play with itself, which was also an alternative form of "playing with snakes".
When it was born, it could only nap in Salazar's palm, and gradually its body became stronger and stronger, and the strength of the basilisk did not make the basilisk happy, it was very easy to hunt small animals on weekdays, and it did not need such a huge body at all.
The solitude lasted until 50 years ago, when he was approached by a dark-haired human, who spoke fluently in a parseltongue with a familiar smell that had not been seen for a long time, and the basilisk was sure that it was the blood of Salazar, and the moment he saw the human, he inquired about Salazar's whereabouts.
"He's long dead, and I'm his descendant," the boy sizzled coldly, "I've spent years finding the Chamber of Secrets just to get you to do something for me." ”
The simple-minded basilisk wanted someone to talk to, and without hesitation, it agreed to Tom's terms, and left the chamber after the boy, and as soon as he got into Hogwarts Castle, he saw a human girl.
It just glanced at it, and the poor girl died.
After that, it was simple and straightforward, Hagrid carried the black cauldron for Tom and was expelled from school, but Tom didn't come to the Chamber of Secrets for a long time.
It didn't blame him, Salazar was also very busy back then, and it took a long time to come to see him, which made it feel very satisfying to be lonely for a long time.
But it was 50 years later, and when he saw the boy again, he seemed to have changed his form, still young, and just like 50 years ago, the basilisk asked him about the outside world, but Tom asked him for another favor.
The basilisk could hear the pleading in his Parseltongue tone, and once again it agreed to Tom's request, turning Hogwarts upside down at the behest of a fat human cub.
Unfortunately, this time it took its own life.
In the last moments of its memory, it returned to its infancy, and Salazar Slytherin held it in the palm of his hand as it had just hatched from a male egg, a satisfied smile on his face.
"Give you a name, what's it called?"
The old man muttered in a parseltongue, and before he could come up with an answer, another guy who looked rather like an old urchin opened the door.
"Hurry up, Salazar!" The old urchin was very strong, and his hands and feet were nimble, "Rowena and Helga have already made dinner!" Just wait for us, with your favorite fried chicken thighs! ”
"Coming soon!" The man agreed, placing the wet one on the slate, "I'll give you a name when I get back." ”
It's a pity that it didn't wait for an answer in the end.
The basilisk fell into a deep sleep, and the people in the chamber breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way," Ron shuddered as he looked at the head of the basilisk close at hand, "that soup, Tom ......"
"Tom Riddle," Joel said back to the corner of the stonewall, holding a red-faced Helis in his arms, "or you can call him the Mystery Man." ”
"Oh, Riddle...... "Ron realized later, "what, what?" ”
His face turned pale.
Joel waved his wand, and Tom Marvolo Riddle's letters appeared in the air, rearranging the letters as if they were characters, and now it appeared to be I Am Lord Volde mort.
"Okay, okay......" Ron looked like it was going to take a while to get the news, "what did the mystery man mean when he said he wanted us to be buried together?" ”
"Is he going to blow up this chamber?"
As soon as Ron finished speaking, the chamber began to shake violently, the dust and stones above his head fell downward, the stone slabs under his feet cracked a little, revealing the rocks below, the large snake climbing on the stone pillar was also cut off, and the statue of Salazar Slytherin was smashed by a stone, revealing a sad smile.
"What should I do?" Ron suddenly panicked, he didn't know what to do, his poisonous milk wouldn't really be gone, right?
"Harry, open the door!" Joel commanded loudly, and he jumped onto the basilisk head with Helis's body, and with a wave of his wand, he cut off the bloody eyeballs in the basilisk sockets, which were difficult to hold with one hand, and larger than his fist.
"Bernie!" Haylis curled into Joel's arms, patted him on the back, and motioned for him not to take Bernie Selwyn, who was unconscious in the corner.
Joel slipped a pair of eyeballs into his pocket, and with a wave of his wand, he floated Bernie's body and followed him.
After Tom Riddle's soul died, and the orders of the Slytherin heirs vanished, Harry easily opened the stone wall with a parseltongue, and everyone gathered together and rushed out.
When they got out of the chamber, they realized that it wasn't just the chamber that had collapsed, the entire tunnel was collapsing, and huge rocks were falling down like dense raindrops, and Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick were still waiting outside in this emergency.
They were overjoyed to see four students and a professor escape.
"Professor!" Harry was in a hurry, and he didn't dare to stomp his feet, "How are we going to get out now?" ”
It was still a long way from the exit pipe, and Riddle's calculations were so good that they couldn't have escaped the tunnel before it collapsed without the ability to use the illusion.
Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitsch used a series of Iron Armor Charms to shield them from the falling rocks above, and they were both optimistic.
"Don't be afraid, as long as the mind does not slip, there are always more ways than difficulties." Professor Flitwick's life quotes come from a mouthful of words, and I don't know where the optimism comes from.
But Joel soon knew where the source of optimism was coming from, a fiery red bird the size of a crane, a golden tail as long as a peacock's tail, a pair of glittering claws, and a long, sharp golden beak and two sparkling black eyes.
Dumbledore's pet - Fawkes the Undead Bird.
When it saw everyone, the golden beak opened slightly, making a loud chirp, and it shuttled in front of everyone in a flash, which seemed to Joel to be completely through space, this ability similar to phantom shifting, he had also seen it in the heterochromic tiger Tom.
It pouted its ass with its back to the crowd, and its tail feathers stood up.
"What does it mean?" Ron hadn't seen the bird before, and he froze in place.
"Grab its tail feathers!" Professor McGonagall yelled, and the crowd obeyed, reaching out their arms to grab a tail feather.
Even Bernie, who was unconscious, was pulled out by Joel with two fingers and pinched up.
The moment everyone reached out and grabbed Fawkes's tail feathers, it turned into a burst of fire and disappeared with everyone.
A series of boulders fell, blocking the tunnel tightly, without a single gap, making the Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets officially disappear into history.
