The Rise of Malfoy at Hogwarts

Chapter 14: End of the Chamber

   On May 29th, Professor Sprout announced at breakfast time that the mandela grass could finally be harvested and that all the petrified victims could be cured that night. Sitting in the corner of the dining table, Schelling silently observed Gryffindor’s long table, and found that Ginny was close to Harry’s eloquent appearance. When she was about to muster up the courage to tell the truth, she was interrupted by Percy Wesley. , Ginny ran away in a hurry, and Xie Lin quietly followed without disturbing anyone.

With the last tracking experience, Xie Lin easily released the invisible phantom curse on himself, followed Ginny to the girls bathroom at the end of the third floor, and saw Ginny hesitate in it for a long time and then opened the diary. A cloud of smoke rose from the book and slowly turned into a human form. Although it looks vague, Schelling can still be sure that it is the remnant of Tom Riddle when he was young. Ginny cried bitterly and accused Tom who had summoned the basilisk to hurt people, and tried to cast a completely ineffective spell on Tom’s remnant soul. Then Tom forced his attachment to Ginny who was struggling desperately in a sneer. When Tom wanted to control Ginny to write on the stone wall outside according to the plot of the original story, he suddenly felt an inexplicable alertness. He looked in the direction of Schelling, raised his wand and shouted, "Who is there!"

   Obviously Tom did not see through Schelling's invisible magic, but his keen intuition can still detect the existence of something wrong. The opponent was Voldemort when he was young, and Xie Lin didn't dare to underestimate the enemy. Xie Lin took advantage of his invisibility and took the first shot. With the silent casting technique and the one-shot two-shot technique, he continuously issued a disarming curse and a knockback curse. The Taoist curses hurriedly fired at Tom one after the other. A good Tom could manipulate Ginny’s body to avoid the disarming curse at such a close distance, and when he tried to avoid the knockback curse, he was coldly repelling the curse. After an abrupt turn, he was knocked into the air. Tom couldn't make a clear fall. In a hurry, he opened the entrance to the secret room in a snake language and hurriedly fled in. There was no time to close the entrance.

   Schelling took out the night star cloak and put it on, holding the wand in his hand, and then rushed into the secret room entrance.

Xie Lin followed the twists and turns of the water pipe, winding all the way down with a steep slope, before reaching the faintly bright water pipe exit. Xie Lin cast a shock absorption charm on himself, leaped forward and stood upright in the wet. On the ground, there was a dark stone tunnel in front of him, big enough for people to stand in it, and Tom was nowhere to be seen. Schelling cast a fluorescent spell and chased along the tunnel all the way forward. At the end of the tunnel is a long, dimly lit room. There are many thick stone pillars on which are carved all kinds of coiled and entangled snakes, towering and supporting the ceiling that melts in the darkness at high places, filled with mystery. Long and strange shadows were cast in his room.

   Xie Lin half-raised his wand, without a word, slowly advancing among the stone pillars coiled by the giant snake. When he reached the position between the last pair of stone pillars, a huge statue as high as the room itself suddenly appeared in front of him. It clung to the dark wall behind. The slightly greenish stone gave it a gloomy atmosphere. He raised his neck to see the face of the statue clearly-it was an old, monkey-like face, a long sparse beard, dragged almost all the way to the hem of the wizard's robe carved out of stone, with two big feet steady. Standing on the smooth floor of the room. Between the two feet of the statue, lying face down is the little figure of Ginny Wesley.

Tom’s vaguely contoured remnant soul leaned on the nearest stone pillar, intersected with the oncoming Schelling, and looked at each other vigilantly, "I thought that everything I did to control this stupid girl was very secret. Thinking of being discovered long ago, who are you? Did Dumbledore send you?"

   Schelling sneered, "I know who you are, Tom, there is more than Dumbledore who can deal with you!"

   Tom showed a curious expression, "Do you really know who I am?"

   Schelling said contemptuously: "Aren't you the remnant soul left by Voldemort's horcrux creation through murder when he was young?"

  What? Voldemort? kill? Horcrux?

Tom has seen information about Schelling in Ginny's memory—the first place in academic performance, published articles in major academic journals, and was regarded as a proud student by two professors...Compared with himself at that time, he was not inferior. , But he is only a second-grade student. Tom never thought that his biggest secret would be seen through by the little wizard in front of him. He showed an expression of unbelievable surprise. Xie Lin has no bad habit of talking nonsense with his enemies. , All the words just said are for the moment when Tom is distracted!

Schelling knew that the curse he knew had no effect on Tom in the remnant state. At this moment, he used the summoning curse to summon the diary into his hand at lightning speed, and at the same time, the pure silver dagger that had been hidden in the pocket of the sleeve slipped into another. In his hand, within that thousandth of a second, Xie Lin poured magic power into the dagger and pierced the diary in one shot! Tom let out a terrible, long-lasting scream that pierced through the eardrums, twisted, struggling, waving his arms, staring with hatred at Schelling after making the last hissing snake language, and then melted. Make the smoke dissipate.

   Schelling did not relax his vigilance at this point. Tom's last little snake talk was most likely a spell to summon the basilisk. Sure enough, the huge stone face of Slytherin moved, and its mouth opened, expanding and opening, finally forming a huge black hole. The basilisk slowly slid out of the statue. It was green all over, glowing with the glamorous light peculiar to a poisonous snake. Its body was as thick as the trunk of an oak tree, and its upper body stretched out into the air.

   Since the first day of school, Schelling has not thought about the tactics and spells of dealing with the basilisk. At this moment, although he was nervous in his heart, he was not very afraid. Just as the basilisk slipped out of the statue, Xie Lin had seized this fleeting opportunity to release the flash spell he had prepared for a long time! The flash curse was the inspiration he got from the flash bomb in the Muggle world, and it took him a lot of thought to research it out.

   Basilisk was blinded by the bright light, and Schelling seized this opportunity to resort to the next combo in the tactics-Eye Curse! Xie Lin quickly cast the spell with two shots. The shooting accuracy he has trained since the age of 4 did not disappoint him. Even though the basilisk kept swinging its huge body from side to side, both eye spells accurately hit the basilisk's eyes. Put the basilisk into a blind state and successfully disarm the basilisk's most threatening weapon. The blind basilisk did not lose its target because of this. The basilisk’s tongue has a very keen sense of smell, and there are two thermal pits between the eyes and nostrils that can sense thermal infrared rays. Having lost the ability of its eyes to kill, it keeps rampaging. The tail swept left and right in a wide range, intending to crush Xie Lin with his huge physical advantage, but Xie Lin, who was exhaustive, would be unprepared for the situation before him.

   Schelling released another original spell-the sonic boom. Like the flashing spell before, this sonic boom is also inspired by the sonic boom in the Muggle world. When reading the original work in his previous life, Xie Lin had long discovered that the attack methods of modern wizards were too simple and monotonous. The vast majority of wizards were nothing more than competing against the destructive power of the spell and their own dodge rate, without tactics. In terms of use and strategic layout, only a few masters like Dumbledore and Voldemort would use various transformation spells to attack.

   Schelling, who has an understanding of the Muggle world, imitated the combat methods of special forces and devised a series of tactical spells. He first used the fluorescent spell as the basis, and through the idea of ​​enhancing the instantaneous brightness, he modified the fluorescent spell used for lighting into a flashing spell to blind opponents. Then, based on the sound reinforcement spell, he modified the sound reinforcement spell used for sound reinforcement to a sonic boom spell that produced loud noises and stunned opponents through the idea of ​​increasing the volume and audio to the limit. Schelling believes that through the use of various tactical combinations of spells and flexibly responding to various complex situations, it is true wizard combat. Wizards who can only shoot spells and dodge spells are too trivial.

As the sonic boom curse exploded in mid-air with a high-frequency loud noise, the basilisk was shocked into an immobile state of dizziness. The sterling silver dagger in Schelling's hand transformed into a gleaming silver sword. Angrily shouted "Flying Sword Wadi Vasi" and projected the Flying Sword in the posture of a javelin. Under the increase of the "Wadi Vasi" curse, the Flying Sword drew out an afterimage in mid-air like a meteor. Unmistakably shot the snake's brain across the two snake eyes, the basilisk twisted in pain, and then turned still on the ground on the side for a few times.

   After so much preparation, and risking his life to fight, it was finally time to harvest the spoils.

   Schelling snapped his fingers and summoned Dobby, and then one person and one spirit dismantled the basilisk's body. Snake skin, snake eyes, snake gall, snake blood, snake venom, snake horns, and snake teeth are all precious materials. Needless to say, even the dozens of kilograms of snake meat Schelling will not let go. The raw materials are stored in New York. In the special suitcase space, most of the raw materials can be stored directly in the laboratory, and a small part of the raw materials that need to be refrigerated are stored in a specially opened snow cave.

   (Note: Basilisk has horns. "Where are the Fantastic Beasts" deliberately omitted this detail. Slytherin’s wand core is the basilisk horn, which can only be manipulated by people who can speak snake language)

   (Note: The principle of the eye disease curse is a curse that forces the eyelids to close, so the snake eyes are not damaged in any way)

   Basilisk corpse materials are obtained!

   Before leaving, Schelling did not forget to pick up Tom Riddle's diary from the ground, soak it in snake venom for a while, and put it in a special container to take it away.

   Schelling asked Dobby to take himself and Ginny to leave the secret room and return to the bathroom on the third floor.

   At this time, the entrance to the secret room has already been closed. From the outside, it seems that there is no problem at all. It seems that the entrance to the secret room will automatically close after a period of time after opening. Xie Lin waved his hand, with a bang, and Dobby left the two Apparition first. Just as Xie Lin was holding Ginny and stepped out of the bathroom door, he unexpectedly met Harry and Ron who happened to be there. They looked at Xie Lin, who was holding Ginny, and each pulled out their wands. Quietly confronted with Xie Lin.

Although the two did not know that there was a basilisk hidden in the secret room, Harry still managed to speculate that the student who died because of the secret room was Myrtle. The entrance to the secret room was probably in this bathroom, and at this moment Schelling was unconscious. Ginny stands here...

   Schelling looked at the expressions on the faces of the two of them. I don't know where the two little kids are thinking. They must be regarded as the descendants of Slytherin.

   Facing Schelling who had crushed him twice, Harry mustered up the courage and asked with difficulty, "What's going on? Why are you and Ginny here?"

   Before Schelling could answer, Ron, who was worried about Ginny's safety and uneasy, suddenly found Schelling's hands holding Ginny—he didn't have a magic wand in his hand! The humiliation scenes that Schelling brought to Ron flashed in his mind over the past year. He groaned at him, let out a roar, and cast a slug vomiting curse on Schelling! However, Ron seemed to forget that there was a problem with his wand, and instead of finishing the spell, Ron's wand suddenly exploded after making a series of strange crackling noises!

The explosion was so big that it blasted Ron into the bathroom wall and fell into a coma; Harry was also knocked to the ground by the aftermath of the explosion, embarrassed; Ginny was lucky, she quickly displayed the armor in Schelling Under the protection of the curse, Xie Lin and Ginny were both unharmed. At this time, a soft moan faintly sounded—Ginny had already woke up. She looked blankly at the left and right, and then at Xie Lin, who had been holding herself. Xie Lin put Ginny down gently without embarrassment, but Ginny seemed to have misunderstood that she was in "a miserable situation" in front of her. The culprit, panicked and burst into tears.

The sound of the explosion also attracted Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape. The two professors said nothing. Professor Snape spontaneously took Ron to the school hospital, and Professor McGonagall took them back to him. Ginny’s office—not long after Schelling entered the secret room, Ginny’s roommate informed the professors of Ginny’s disappearance. After the professors searched every corner of the castle and still had no results, they had no choice but to inform the school board and Ginny's parents, and then Dumbledore returned. Professor McGonagall obviously thought that since Dumbledore had returned, it was obviously more appropriate to let him deal with it.

   As they left, there was a dull roar and collapse in the secret room, and the whole ground shook slightly.
