Chapter 154: The Chamber of Secrets
As a friend, Louis would never abandon his brother.
He first pulled out Remonia and told her to go down and have a look, and by the way, he took a little bit and stabbed Harry. After receiving an unquestionable response, Louis let go of his hand.
After a while, Remonia's message returned.
"That little guy seems to have fainted, master." Hearing it, Remonia gloated.
Louis simply opened the energy shield and drilled down the pipe.
He felt as if he had entered a narrow, enclosed slide, twisting and turning like nine and eighteen turns, turning and turning, and occasionally he could feel the muffled sound of the shield hitting the wall of the pipe.
Fortunately, his physical fitness has been strengthened for a long time, otherwise he would not have been able to run motion sickness.
After a few twists and turns, Louis suddenly came out of the tube, and he even heard a clear "wave" sound.
The ground was damp, but under the effect of the energy shield, the dirt did not stain him, only the hairstyle was messed up because of the bumps.
With a snap of his fingers to illuminate the dark space, Louis looked down to see Harry lying unconscious on the ground like a toad.
This kid plunged into the pipe one by one, and it is estimated that his face hit the ground first.
He reached out and gestured at the side of Harry's nose, and he breathed.
Fortunately, the savior classmate did not stop there.
「SelvioHexia! (Peace)"
Unable to let Harry lie here on his own, Louis turned him over and protected him for a moment with the Peace Charm Charm.
Anyway, there is Lao Deng staring at it.
He continued to touch forward, the dark and silent tunnel was so scary that he couldn't help but think about the horror movies he had seen in his last life.
After walking a few steps, I was almost scared enough by my own brain supplement.
As we all know, the most terrifying thing in the world is always people who are scary, especially to scare themselves.
As he walked, there was a sudden sound of a jam on the ground, which frightened him and his hair went straight to the ceiling.
When I looked down, I saw the skulls of an unknown rodent critter, and if I looked closely, the ground in front of me was densely covered with animal bones.
Louis was sure that there were no bones in them, because they were so small that they looked like rats or something.
Walking onwards, turning the bend in front of him, he saw a large green snake coiling on the floor of the tunnel, as if it had just faded, in the light of the light floating behind him.
Obviously, the snake that had shed its skin was a little bit huge, and Louis saw that the snake could accommodate Harry to continue his stab.
This is an important alchemical material, and Louis did not hesitate to stuff this huge snakeskin into the system space.
"This little guy is so miniature that little one." Remonia's demonic voice rang in his ears.
Louis was stunned for a moment, then he looked back at Remonia, "You call that little one?"
Remonia's sword shook slightly, looking unconcerned. There was a hint of amusement in her voice, "The Blazing Blue Fairy Wild is much bigger than it, and the Winter Queen once gave two to His Majesty Denatius, and he later rewarded that traitor to Renathor."
Louis shrugged and walked on, and after passing one corner after another, there was no longer a turn in front of him, but a solid wall.
He walked over to take a closer look, and there were two entangled snakes carved into the wall, their eyes inlaid with large, shining emeralds, as if they were alive, and set off the already hideous coiled snake even more bewitching.
Without even thinking about it, Louis turned his staff into a sword and pulled off the emeralds and put them into the system.
*Congratulations on getting the perfect emerald*4.
After he finished picking it, he remembered that he should call Ha to use the snake to open the wall.
Sloppy.
"Alohora!"
Louis pointed his staff at the wall and shot an orange-red one
Enchantments.
There was a rumbling sound, and the wall was blasted open by his spell with a large hole, just enough for him to pass through.
Good guys, read Alajo Cave Open, write Thunderbolt Explosion, right?
Behind the wall was a long, dimly lit room, with towering stone pillars towering to support the dark ceiling, carved with coiled serpents. It should be said that it is really worthy of Slytherin's secret room, and even the Slytherin has achieved the ultimate in aesthetics.
"Who's coming, there's finally a visitor to this Slytherin chamber?"
A strange tone of yin and yang sounded, and Louis followed the voice to see a waterhole at the end. On the wall behind the waterhole, a huge face is carved. It was an old, skinny face, with a sparse beard that dragged almost all the way to the hem of a wizard's robe carved out of stone. Two large gray feet stood on the smooth floor, and on one of them sat Tifa, with an obscure expression.
"Assistant Teacher Tifa?" Louis asked tentatively.
"I can't imagine that half a year has passed, and you still remember me, mortal." Tifa's voice suddenly became odd, as if there were several people talking at the same time, and it was surprisingly decent.
Yes, it's a very decent feeling, and it's hard to make people hostile.
"I think you'd already notice something was wrong with me, Louis, and admit that it's hard for a creature of your age to reach where you are now."
Tifa finished speaking, his eyes closed slightly.
When I opened my eyes again, they were glowing blue.
"Blue-Eyed Demon?" Louis was stunned, he had thought of countless possibilities, from Hufflepuff's gold cup to Slytherin's pendant, or Schuzpaver's reappearance, but in any case, he didn't expect that there was a blue-eyed demon in front of him.
"Is it possible...... Did you admit that you were mistaken?" Tifa smiled, beautiful and charming.
Louis gripped his wand in one hand, and with the other he had reached the hilt of Remonia's sword.
"You can see, master, you're nervous." Remonia whispered, "Either your kidneys are weak, I think you should be a little more restrained."
"Nonsense, you're just kidney......-deficient," Louis retorted subconsciously, then realized that he might be too nervous, and his palms were sweating.
He looked up, stared at Tifa, and asked in a cold voice, "What about Professor Lockhart?"
"Oh, you say my brother who doesn't make it?" Tifa covered her mouth and chuckled, and then said slowly, "He...... He was reborn in the belly of the serpent......
Luis suddenly thought of a possibility.
"You won't...... Take him and the snake...... Together, right?" He asked hesitantly.
This kind of thing is not without precedent, in various legends, the demon always likes to combine people with some kind of ferocious animal to form a killing machine, and this "Tifa" in front of him is very suspicious of doing so.
"Oh, not really." Tifa's expression was somewhat disgusted: "A straw bale like his who likes to show off himself, no matter what he combines with anything, the result is only a waste ......
"Why?" Tifa raised his chin into the distance, and Louis looked in the direction and saw a gray-black puddle.
"It's a pity that this is a secret room, and I can't let him play the final role, I think that people like him can make the greatest contribution to the wizarding world by becoming fertilizer for your herbal class."
Tifa's voice was cold, as if she was talking about someone who had nothing to do with her.
"But this must have been a mistake I had done, and since I let that snake swallow Lockhart, this little girl has been resisting me."
"Really, it's hard to find such a skin that voluntarily possessed me." Tifa's tone was even a little resentful.
"Looks like you're ready to kill someone." Louis narrowed his eyes at Tifa.
"Oh no, Louis." Tifa shook her head and denied, "I think you're underestimating me, we're never bad for skins, even if they know our secrets."
Speaking of which
Tifa's smile bloomed, as warm as the spring sun.
"Whether you believe it or not, this is a rule given to us by our Father, and we must not hurt the ...... who truly accept us Skins, even if they are the most filthy human beings, ah, how ridiculous, father for you monkeys, how ......
Tifa's face distorted for a moment, and then returned to a warm smile, "Of course, I think there are many reasonable and compromise solutions, as if the eight-eyed giant spider in the depths of the Forbidden Forest can do it for you."
"I wish I could see that serpent devour you poor fellow, but I have other things to do, farewell."
After Tifa finished speaking, the whole person turned into a blue-white light, floating away from the top of the secret room.
At this moment, Harry also ran from behind.
"Louis, Louis...... Ha, you're not interesting enough!" Harry grumbled breathlessly.
"There's no time to explain, call Ron Hermione, you go to Hagrid and tell him that Assistant Coach Tifa is in danger in Aragog, quick!"
"But that monster ......" Harry still couldn't forget the purpose of this trip, and the sense of mission given by history came up slowly.
Louis said eagerly, "Leave your monster alone, Assistant Teacher Tifa's life is in danger! 100,000 urgent!"
"But how do I get up......" Harry asked hesitantly.
Louis was also stunned, yes, why did he go up......
A clear sigh interrupted the two of them, and Fawkes flew in from afar, clutching the dirty Sorting Hat at his feet.
"Just in time, Fawkes." Louis waited for Fawkes to fly closer, and hurriedly pulled Harry over, "Harry is handed over to you, you take him to the Gryffindor common room, hurry!"
Fawkes nodded, grabbed Harry, and lifted it in his paw like a cargo.
Also enjoyed the treatment of a sorting hat.
Harry endured the awkwardness without squeaking, Fawkes's claws were a little sharp, and he scratched at his flesh, but now that his life was at stake, he couldn't care about the pain.
Louis picked up the Sorting Hat on the floor, and the old hat greeted him when he saw him.
"Hi, Louis."
"Yo, isn't this an old hat?" Louis hiccuped, reached into his hat, and pulled out a long sword encrusted with gems.
"Looks like you're half a Gryffindor." "But Old Hat has a unique eye and has placed you in a more suitable Slytherin."
"Don't you say, I forgot about our holiday." As soon as Louis mentioned this, he remembered that the Sorting Ceremony was played by the Old Hat.
"You ought to think that if you don't go to Slytherin, can you still have everything you have now?"
The old hat's words were thought-provoking, and Louis thought about it, if he didn't go to Slytherin, it was unlikely that he would be so close to the senior sister.
"Then I really have to thank you, go back and buy you some books to read, I think you might be able to become a poet." Louis shrugged, ignored his objections, folded his old hat and slipped it into his pocket.
"What about snakes?" Louis asked with hindsight.
"If you're a little sharper, maybe you'll notice that something is wrong with us." Remonia said.
Only then did Louis notice the rippling energy shield.
He looked up, and the energy shield card rang.
What kind of eyes were they, like searchlights in this deep and dark environment.
The energy shield rang again.
*Energy Shield gained 100 proficiency and increased level to 17.
It seems that this eye attack does not hurt much, Louis thought to himself, not realizing that his shield level is too high.
When I looked closer, a lump of liquid smashed into the energy shield, sending ripples and flowing down the edges.
Oh, a gigantic serpent, the basilisk of the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, the culprit of the attack.
Looks a little bigger than in the movie and the original book, maybe Tifa gave him some catalytic hormone?
This look......
It's chic.
Seeing Louis's gaze, the basilisk seemed to wonder why the two-legged beast didn't die when he looked at him, and after a while, he roared with great virtue, as if announcing that I was about to attack.
Louis held down Remonia, who was poised to attack.
"Do you want to take it as a pet?" Remonia asked suspiciously, and then persuaded, "Master, such an ugly thing is really not worthy of your noble status as a pet, how can it be the kind of Yinsela to be your pet......
Louis could tell that Remonia was praising him simply out of wanting to absorb the basilisk's mental energy.
The mental energy produced by a twisted creature like the basilisk is best suited to Ravenders, especially Ravenders' most outstanding creation.
"I just think this basilisk is full of treasures, such a big thing, it's a pity for you to cut it." Louis looked at the basilisk in front of him, and felt that it was not a basilisk, but a moving, renewable treasure trove of potions alchemy.
"But I'm really hungry, master." Remonia's voice was as hungry as she was: "Please......
"It's not good to be greedy, it's natural to make the most of such a good thing, Remonia." Louis lifted Remonia and stroked her fingers along the ridge of Remonia's sword.
"Hmm...... Ha, no, no, I don't want to be hungry for my master......" Remonia's voice was strange, and the sword body buzzed and trembled at high speeds.
Louis let go of her, not caring about the basilisk that was still staring at him.
"Hah...... Hah......" Remonia gasped for a moment before asking, "Aren't you afraid that the basilisk will suddenly attack you?"
"Oh, this basilisk is special, it can't see anything that doesn't move." Louis shrugged, "He can't see even the slightest movement."
"Normally, snakes hunt by infrared heat, but I simulated their body temperature to the same as the environment, and now they are blind." Louis stared at the basilisk in front of him without worry...... Ah no, it's big baby.
