Chapter 148: Slytherin's Inheritance
Chapter 148: Slytherin's Inheritance
"There's no one inside.
"That's maybe I heard it wrong, let's go and don't get discovered."
Harry reminded.
But what you are afraid of is easy to come.
"What are you doing here?
This is the girls' bathroom!"
Percy came over from a distance and asked in a low voice.
"You know, look for clues.
Ronald let out a long breath.
It scared him to death just now.
"Don't tell me that!"
Percy pursed his lips.
The Prefect Medal shone before him.
"Hurry up - leave!
Go to the auditorium for dinner.
Be honest, otherwise I will write to my mother.
Learn from Ginny Ronald and don't always worry about your mom.
Ronald looked at Percy's expression, and the anger in his heart was ignited at once, and he said in a huff:
"Why can't I look for clues?
I told you! I haven't touched that cat!
That cat petrified has nothing to do with me!35"
Gryffindor was deducted five points! Now you're satisfied! Okay, now go back to the auditorium to eat!"
After speaking, he left without looking back.
An angry Ronald was pulled by Hermione and Harry.
Walk in the other direction.
"Finally they all left..."
The women's bathroom, which everyone was not paying attention to, was opened at this moment.
An abrupt voice came from inside the door.
After a moment, it seems to confirm that there is really no one.
Braun just closed the door.
05 walked to a drain faucet and carefully observed.
"It's not this, it's not this..."
"Nothing? No way. Or do you need to use snake language?"
Braun said with a frown.
He searched but found no serpentine mark.
Try using Parseltongue: "Open—door—"
With the hissing of snakes.
One side of the central faucet lit up.
Then a bottomless staircase was revealed.
I don't know if it hasn't been opened for a long time, and a fishy and rotten smell poured up from the ground.
It took a few moments for Braun to decide to go on.
"Fluorescent flashing!"
Braun held up his wand and walked down warily.
"Tread! Trample!
The crisp sound of leather shoes falling on the stairs can be clearly heard in this empty and dark space.
If it were to change to another person, it might have long been a little unbearable of that psychological pressure.
But Braun was different, he was not affected in the slightest.
On the contrary, I observed with interest.
"It seems that the person who snatched the diary last time also came in from here. 99
Looking at the footprints on the ground, Braun thought.
Then he carefully eliminated the footprints he had stepped on the ground.
But then the speed has dropped somewhat.
But fortunately, the stairs are not long.
After hearing the sound of ticking water, Braun finally came to the ground.
"Brush!35
With Braun's feet on the ground for a moment.
A torch placed on the wall suddenly lit up.
Braun, who was used to the dark, couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
In front of Braun is a not too long road.
Under the light of torches.
Braun could clearly see the stone door opposite.
With some wariness, Braun walked over.
A distorted font on the door.
Braun felt weird:
"Snake language?"
Although he is able to speak some basic snake language with the help of the doppelganger.
But for words, he can't help it.
I had to summon the doppelganger again.
"Hiss (open)
The doppelganger's hoarse throat made a sound.
I saw it with a hissing sound.
The stone door opened slowly.
The room inside is revealed.
I saw that there was a huge space inside.
The size of three auditoriums is the size of a hall.
The ground is filled with the bones of various animals.
Fishmen, mice. There are also strange creatures whose names cannot be named.
It looks like it should have been stacked for a long time.
The surface of some bones is already covered with moss.
The meandering marks on the ground and the huge snakeskin in the corner of the wall swear that there is a powerful predator here.
Looking up, a huge stone statue stands in the very center of the space.
The statue is of an old man wearing a wide wizard's robe.
The skin is shriveled against the bone, and the long beard drags to the ground.
The hand holding the wand is like a chicken's claw.
Eyes made of rubies look down at the ground.
Flickering slightly against the backdrop of the firelight, with the distorted shadow, it seems to come to life.
"The basilisk is not here?
Braun searched around for a while but found no trace of the basilisk.
This couldn't help but make him feel a little disappointed.
"Are you looking for a basilisk? Child? 35
"Who is it?
Braun clenched his wand warily.
"Don't be nervous. 99
The stone statue in the center opened and closed its mouth.
"What did you say? You are...... Slytherin?35
Braun still hasn't let his guard down.
But the other party obviously didn't care much about Braun's vigilance.
"That's not very accurate.
I am an alchemical item made by Slytherin. The real him would have died a long time ago.
"Alchemy items?"
This made Braun think of the headmaster's talking stone statue outside.
"I'm about the same as that stone statue. 35
The Slytherin stone statue intimately explained.
"Can you see my thoughts?"
Braun was shocked and ran the brain sealing technique with all his might, while taking a few steps back.
"Don't be afraid.
I don't see your thoughts, but an alchemical item for a powerful wizard.
While inheriting some of his memories, I also learned some of his knowledge and experience.
And there were only gargoyles in this school who were similar to me.
The stone statue shrugged.
Braun steadied:
"Can you tell me who else has come in?"
"I'm sorry, but no, you all have the same identity after entering here.
That's Slytherin's heir, and you're competitors so I can't tell you who that person is.
"Okay then, what do I need to do? Control the basilisk to purify the school?"
"Of course not, why do you always want to do that?
Or is the rumor circulating from the body too deeply rooted in people's hearts?"
The stone statue seemed to be a little distressed by Braun's words.
"So, what should I do?"
"Give me eternal life... 35
The stone statue said in a low voice.
"Eternal life?"
Braun's mind couldn't help but think of Voldemort's Horcruxes.
So why didn't another competitor succeed? Doesn't he have a Horcrux? Isn't this eternal life?99
Braun's words surprised the statue a bit:
"Do you know the other person?"
"Part of the know, in fact, I was able to get in here thanks to his help.
Say and summon his doppelganger.
The stone statue leaned over and looked at it, and couldn't help but marvel:
"Very interesting magic. There is some shadow of Helbo.
"I got part of Helpo's heritage.
Braun said without changing his face.
"Oh? Is it? That's a bit unusual.
Looks like you're very good." 35
The stone statue said in surprise.
"You haven't answered my question yet.
"Although Horcruxes can also be immortal, they are not immortal. And I think since you have obtained the inheritance of Helbo, you should not be unaware of its shortcomings. "5
"Cons? You mean split souls?
"yes. Isn't that a disadvantage?"
The stone statue asked rhetorically.
"You're right." 5
Braun said with his head down.
It's just that I don't think so in my heart:
917
"So even Slytherin doesn't know what a real Horcrux looks like?
It seems that a lot did happen after Helpo's death.
The stone statue sighed:
"Helpo is indeed a great wizard.
And also a powerful dark wizard.
It's a pity that in the end, he died because of the split of the Horcruxes!
What a shame. ”
"Helbo died because of a Horcrux split?"
"ABAJ......"
The stone statue is slightly emotional:
"Maybe your heritage doesn't say that, but it's true. At that time, wizards were still priests of the gods.
But then I don't know why the gods disappeared.
Wizards can only rely on constantly digging the blood of the gods in their bodies to use magic.
"Gods? There are still gods in this world?
So we are all descendants of God?"
"There were in ancient times, but then they gradually disappeared.
And we wizards are their priests. ”
Looking at the pious look of the stone statue, Braun always felt a little weird.
It's completely different from the Sims he's ever experienced.
In the simulation, the wizard is never a believer who relies on the gods.
Even the black snake witch is mutually beneficial to the gods behind it.
Instead of surrendering to the other person.
"So, after Helpo's death, history was tampered with? Or are we really the descendants of those who are divinely dependent?
"Are you speechless in shock? The original body actually reacted similarly to you when he knew the news!
The stone statue reminded kindly.
"Yes, there is a point. So that means that if you want to inherit the Slytherin inheritance, you need to have an elixir?"
Braun asked.
He did not intend to reveal the difference between the Horcruxes he knew and Voldemort.
"It should be, but if you have any other way, you can try."
The stone statue said indifferently.
