Chapter 176: The Philosopher's Stone
Black mud is a monster created by ancient creations, and it has strong adaptability.
The black mud that Arthur saw at first was not able to resist the attack of the spell. However, as these black mud came into contact with more and more magic, their body's resistance to magic grew from nothing, until now the wizards of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry can only destroy them with the "Filth Retreat" created by Dumbledore.
"Don't you have a super powerful magic, use it quickly?"
After repelling a Death Eater, Lilith pulled Arthur into a no-man's corner, looking no longer concerned with her previous appearance, and now urging in a hurried tone.
The Death Eaters were so cunning that they would turn around and flee as soon as the black mud possessed by the wizards of Hogwarts was destroyed, and after a few minutes, the Death Eaters would attack them with a black mud monster.
This caused Lilith and the others to be tired of fighting each other all the time, and they were attacked by each other in turn.
And the house-elves guarding the gates of Hogwarts Castle have also been defeated by the black mud monsters outside the castle because of the number of people, and the gate that has been guarded by them is about to be lost.
"I can only deal with that monster. These monsters are not qualified enough. ”
Arthur said abruptly. His words have the meaning of a pretending comparison, but it is true that "the mercy of the saint of mercy" cannot drive away these black mud.
This skill was given to him by the will of the Harry Potter world to deal with ancient creations.
In the eyes of the will of the world, the existence of a monster like black mud can be completely solved by a wizard, and there is no need for him to send down a gift.
"You were in a hurry to get rid of the black mud and kill these Death Eaters. Why do you look so determined now? ”
Lilith said dissatisfied.
Obviously, the person who should be the most sure should be himself, but now he has become the one who worries the most.
Thundered!
Suddenly, the entire Hogwarts castle shook, and Lilith's face changed, and she took Arthur's hand and tried to escape to safety.
Winter! Winter! Winter!
The rhythmic jolt made Arthur smile, and he grabbed Lilith and made him look out.
"What is this?"
Lilith looked at the stone statue more than ten meters tall as it was slapping a Death Eater into the air in an invincible posture and began to sweep away the black mud monsters that wanted to attack the castle.
"These are the boulder soldiers awakened by Professor McGonagall, didn't you notice that they are the same as the stone statues standing in the castle halls?"
With the addition of the Boulder Soldiers, the pressure on the house-elves guarding the castle gates was instantly reduced.
In the garden outside Hogwarts Castle, which had previously been turned into the Black Sea by the black rain, countless tentacles full of red eyes appeared, trying to climb onto the body of the boulder soldier to control it.
It's a pity that the Boulder Soldiers are magical creatures, not flesh creatures, and after these tentacles crawl on their bodies, they are easily thrown out by the Boulder Soldiers.
Like harvesters in a wheat field, the six boulder soldiers flew the black mud monsters that rushed in front of them. Due to the fact that these black mud monsters are possessed by domestic elves.
Professor McGonagall did not kill the boulders, but only incapacitated them, and then ordered the castle's house-elves to use magic to pull their monster-possessed compatriots back to the castle.
Professor Sprout uses the "Filth Retreat" to destroy the black mud monsters on their bodies, and then has the house-elves bring their unconscious compatriots back to safety.
"But that's not enough, as long as the black cloud doesn't get rid of it. We will surely be consumed to death by the Death Eaters. ”
Lilith leaned against the window, looking at the black cloud overhead, frowning.
"Arthur, I'll take you out of here. Take you to Master Grindelwald! ”
"No, I'm fine at Hogwarts." Arthur shook his head.
"But these Death Eaters are clearly coming at you. Headmaster Dumbledore has been pestered by the Death Eaters outside. Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, and the others were tired of dealing with the Death Eaters in the castle. You're here alone, and if you're caught by a Death Eater, no one can save you. ”
Seeing that Arthur disagreed with her idea, Lilith turned around and stared at Arthur angrily, her tone very stern.
"Isn't there still you? I believe that a saint who is valued by Grindelwald can't solve a few Death Eaters, right? Impossible, right? ”
Arthur was still very determined, but seeing Lilith's anxious face, his words suddenly became a little yin and yang.
"Merlin's beard! Who gave you the courage in the end, it's all at this time, and you're still pretending! ”
Lilith knew that Arthur was very strong and had reached the level of an adult wizard, but these Death Eaters were busy with their lives, and most of them were dark wizards wanted by the Ministry of Magic.
She could defeat the Death Eaters head-on, but what if the Death Eaters took advantage of her inattention and attacked Arthur?
She, Lilith Stiencana, a saint, came to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to protect Arthur.
In her mind, Arthur's safety always comes first.
And the ending of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has nothing to do with her.
"If Grindelwald sees you like this, his trust in you will disappear in an instant."
William waved his hand and quickly unleashed a spell towards the end of the corridor beside him.
"Filth retreats!"
At the same time, Lilith casts a "Broken Bone".
With the tacit cooperation of the two, a Death Eater who had just arrived here ended his life of sin.
"Tell me, what the hell are your plans?!"
The appearance of the Death Eater calmed Lilith's anxious mind a little, and she put away her wand and asked Arthur.
"The reason why the Death Eaters attacked Hogwarts Castle so brazenly was because the Black Cloud had been providing them with a steady stream of black mud monsters."
Arthur looked out the window at the black clouds and said slowly.
"That huge black cloud, even Professor Dumbledore can't dispel it. What the hell do you want to do, don't play dumb riddles with me. I hate Riddler! ”
Lilith clenched her teeth and said angrily.
"Don't you understand such a simple truth? As long as the dark clouds are resolved, the Death Eaters will retreat. ”
"Then you can tell me a way! If you don't, I'll turn you into a pig right now and take you out of Hogwarts Castle! ”
Lilith raised her wand and threatened Arthur.
"Alright, well, since you want to get an answer so much, let's go find the Philosopher's Stone!"
Seeing Lilith's serious appearance, Arthur withdrew his hands from the window and walked down the hallway towards the magic staircase.
"Philosopher's Stone? What do you want to do? ”
When Lilith heard this, her brain instantly became bigger. She didn't understand why Arthur was looking for the Philosopher's Stone now when he was talking about Black Clouds.
It's not that she's not smart enough, it's that there's really no connection between the two.
The Riddlers are all dead to me!
Looking at Arthur's back, Lilith raised her wand, but in the end reason prevailed over impulse.
"I've observed that these black mud monsters are monsters made up of negative magic. And that black cloud, which has always been able to create black mud, must contain a huge amount of negative magic. The Philosopher's Stone can extend the life of a wizard and contains powerful life magic. ”
"All we have to do is throw the Philosopher's Stone into the clouds. The black cloud full of negative magic and the magic stone full of life magic will cancel each other out, knowing that the negative magic inside is completely neutralized. ”
Sensing that Lilith was following, Arthur patiently explained.
"But how can you be sure that the power in the Philosopher's Stone is enough to destroy that black cloud? What if it is not eliminated? ”
After walking down the magic staircase, Lilith asked suspiciously.
"It's okay, I'll shoot when the time comes!"
When Arthur said this, his back was very handsome. But if you look at it from the front, there is a clear expression of pain on his face.
That's right, this black cloud, he can indeed solve. But that costs a lot of money.
He finally paid off a large wave of foreign debts, and every cell in his body refused to let him take on a huge amount of foreign debts again.
Therefore, Arthur could only test it with the Philosopher's Stone first. If the Philosopher's Stone really destroys the black clouds, then he doesn't have to make a move.
If the power of the Philosopher's Stone is not enough to deal with the black clouds, Arthur will have a lot less foreign debt when the time comes.
Soon, after fighting off the two Death Eaters, Arthur and Lilith arrived at the door of the first level where the Philosopher's Stone was kept.
"The door is open? It seems that the Death Eaters were not just me. ”
Looking at the hidden wooden door in front of him, Arthur said suddenly.
"Damn! My little cutie! ”
Seeing this, Lilith's face changed, and she hurriedly pushed the door and rushed in. Seeing that Lilith was in such a hurry, Arthur was also curious about what the monster in the first level she provided to Dumbledore was, so he followed him in.
In the silence of the room, the corpse of a Death Eater lay in front of the two of them. Lilith ignored the corpse and quickly ran towards the "hill" behind him, crying out the monster's name.
"Pig-headed people? Didn't this race go extinct a long time ago? ”
Arthur looked at the pig-headed man who had passed out and said in surprise.
The pig-headed man, the magical threat level xxxx, was a very common magical creature in the Middle Ages, but because of their participation in the war between the elves and the wizards, they were completely wiped out by the wizards. Since then, no pig-headed man has been seen in the wizarding world for hundreds of years.
Arthur wondered how Lilith had found the pig-headed man.
"No, there is actually a tribe of pig-headed people who have fled to Australia. They live in a magical secret place in southern Australia. Little Beechcraft was met by me in New Zealand, she came out to practice, and was accidentally discovered by the dark wizard, and it was I who saved her. ”
"Later, she said that she wanted to come to England for training and to learn about ancient history, so I asked her to come to Hogwarts."
Lilith uses her magic wand to stop Beechcraft's bleeding wounds while explaining how she and Beechcraft met.
"Don't worry, she won't die. Rather than you stop her bleeding, you should wipe out the black mud on her tail. ”
Arthur walked up to Beechcraft's massive body, felt her heart still beating, and looked around again, only to find a small cloud of black mud wriggling on the tail that was pressed under Beechcraft's body.
While curious as to why Beechcraft wasn't possessed by the black mud and became a monster, they can't afford to waste too much time here right now. Beech, the gatekeeper of the first level of the Philosopher's Stone, is defeated by the Death Eaters.
Then it means that there are already Death Eaters who have entered the second level, no! It's possible that you've already made it to the fifth level.
Professor Sprout's Devil's Net, Professor Feliwick's Flying Key, and Professor McGonagall's Wizarding Chess are all too simple for adult wizards.
Install the latest version. 】
Only the Potions level that Arthur helped Professor Snape improve could stop the Death Eaters.
"Let's go, let's go in! I'm going to have to cut the guy who hurt my little cutie to pieces! ”
After Lilith's wand shot a white light that wiped out the black mud attached to Beech's tail, she opened the entrance to the second level and said in a cold voice.
Beechcraft is a very peace-loving pig-headed man, and she is not willing to kill even a ghoul.
What a good pig-headed man, who was badly wounded by the Death Eaters, and Lilith would never forgive the murderer.
In the second level, the devil's net is passed by a motionless method. Lilith and Arthur soon made it to the third level, the Flying Key.
Under Lilith's keen perception, this level was successfully passed in less than thirty seconds.
"This... It's up to you. I don't know how to play wizard chess. ”
Looking at the huge wizard chess piece in front of him, Arthur spread his hands and expressed very honestly that he had no way to pass this level.
"There are things you don't know."
Lilith chuckled, raised her wand and flew to the top of the board, and began to direct her own pieces to fight against the enemy pieces......
And at this moment, in the fifth level where Arthur and Lilith went, Ron and Harry stared at the bottles of potions in front of them at a loss, not knowing what to do?
The two of them had gone looking for the professor after entering Hogwarts Castle through the secret passages of the school hospital half an hour earlier. But on the way, I happened to meet two sneaky Death Eaters.
Because of the invisibility cloak that obscured the two of them, the Death Eaters were unaware of their presence.
Ron and Harry overheard the words of "stealing the Philosopher's Stone" and decided to stop the two Death Eaters.
The pig-headed man in the first level was defeated by the Death Eaters, and Harry and Ron made it to the second level without any problems.
It stands to reason that the second level should have caused some trouble for the two scumbags, but Harry and Ron had both watched Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and knew that the plant that haunted them was the Devil's Web.
So the two of them passed the second level very easily according to the strategy in the book.
When the two came to the third level, they found that it was actually the Flying Key level. In the middle, Harry caught the flying key, so the two didn't think too much about it, and Harry rode the flying broomstick to find the key.
After gaining experience in the second and third levels, Ron volunteered to be the commander of the fourth level of the wizarding chess level, probably motivated by his own heroic performance, and he also won a good duel in this level.
But when they came to the fourth level, they were dumbfounded.
"Harry... Are you sure you're not mistaken? ”
After a long silence, Ron pointed to the riddle on the stone platform, with a bitter melon face, and confirmed Harry repeatedly.
