Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Peter

Chapter 173 The Dark Lord Cannot Return

Peter and Andonova moved forward all the way, and Andonova discovered some black magic curses stored in the granite. Due to the existence of too long, the power contained in them has dissipated, leaving only the residual evil breath.

At last they stopped before another plain stone door with a bronze knocker.

Peter used the magic space to investigate carefully and pondered for a long time in front of the stone gate. Andonova quietly observed the magic disc, but the disc did not respond.

"Did you find any signs of black magic?" Andonova asked in a low voice.

Peter shook his head lightly, "No, but this makes the stone gate even more suspicious. How could Haierbo give up the opportunity to absorb souls for nothing?"

"Total protection, safe guarding, armor protection..." He began to cast a series of protective magic on the stone gate, "Stand back a little bit." He said to Andonova, and then he created a stone gate near the stone gate. A barrier composed of yellow mantras.

After finishing all this, he summoned a statue of a knight and manipulated it to pull the bronze door knocker. After a few seconds, the entire secret passage vibrated, the dust kept shaking off, and dense luminous green lines started from the door knocker and quickly spread to the entire secret passage , forming a dazzling spider web shape.

Andonova's face became paler, her chest heaved violently, but her expression remained calm. Peter raised the poplar wand with one hand and the chestnut wand with the other, and lowered it to her ear. He said in a loud voice: "A fatal attack is coming soon, Iron Armor Curse, Deflection Curse...you can use any spell, in short, do your best to defend, okay?"

Andonova pursed her lips and looked up at the ceiling covered with green spell nets. In the magic space, Peter felt that countless invisible beings had already aimed at them.

"I'll count to three..." Peter said calmly, predicting the moment of the attack, "one...two...

"three!"

Peter and Andonova waved their wands at the same time, and they were surrounded by a thick spherical magic barrier. The three knights with shields turned their backs to each other and raised their shields with a clatter. Outside, a purple-black bat transformed from magic power surrounded the fire shield with a pair of fleshy wings.

With a loud noise, the stone door opened, and a dazzling green beam of light shot out from the stone door. The beam of light broke through the layers of protective magic in front of the stone door, and smashed the statue of the knight who knocked on the door. It penetrated the room and shone on the statue. On the mechanism behind, the green spell net on the wall is full of magic power.

"At least some energy is used up," Peter said. "Gabriella, get ready..."

Every node of the spell net released green light spots, and thousands of spells pierced the air, attacking Peter and Andonova. The spells instantly evaporated the magic bat summoned by Andonova. The shield only lasted for a few seconds before it dwindled, and the three knights holding the shield were also pulverized into powder.

"Here we come." Peter said calmly. He raised two wands and poured all his magic power into the magic barrier. Andonova stood back to back with him, making the same effort.

Haierbo's green spell confronted the magic barrier supported by Peter and Andonova, and the place where the spell directly touched the outer layer of the barrier was burned red within a few seconds.

Both sides are rapidly consuming energy, the outermost layer of the magic barrier is continuously vaporized, and the inner layer is constantly pouring new energy into it, forming a precarious dynamic balance, even as thin as a cicada's wing at the most dangerous time.

Peter's two wands buzzed and vibrated in his hands, and the handle of the "Dragon's Breath" became hot. Andonova gritted her teeth, grasped the wand with both hands, and the magic power poured out.

The green spell on the stone wall gradually faded, and Peter and Andonova gained the upper hand. Finally, with a few buzzing sounds, the green spell exhausted its last strength. At this time, Peter's chestnut wand was as hot as it was going to be. Burned to ashes, Andonova was exhausted and leaned on Peter's shoulder.

Regardless of his own fatigue, Peter hurriedly supported Andonova, and she suddenly lifted her body and pushed him away, reminding: "Behind!"

More than a dozen statues of basilisks slid into the room. The leading basilisk bared its fangs and rushed towards Peter. Peter barely moved, and burned its head into ashes with the "dragon's breath" backhand. Andorno Wa waved her wand, and a crescent spell flew across the room, chopping off the rest of the shapeless figurines.

"Isn't it? The famous Haierbo only has this kind of defense?" Peter said in a low voice as he watched the statue of the basilisk crashing down.

"boom!"

Before Peter could finish his sentence, a black shadow fell to the ground from behind the stone door. Andonova raised her wand and tried to turn around to defend herself, but Peter held her in his arms and stopped her.

"Don't look back!" cried Peter.

It turned out that the black shadow was a basilisk. Its scales were much darker than that of a snake, and its body was larger. Its fangs were as long as an adult man's arm, but many places on its head were rotten, revealing Thick bones.

"Close your eyes!" Peter ordered in Parseltongue through Haierbo's Parseltongue dictionary, but the basilisk was still winding forward, making some strange hissing sounds that the dictionary could not identify.

"Go away!" Peter ordered again, and the basilisk finally made several recognizable sounds: "...pain...pain..."

With a plop, it fell belly up and writhed wildly on the floor. Peter pulled Andonova aside to avoid being corroded by the venom sprayed everywhere.After dozens of seconds, the basilisk remained motionless, its cloudy yellow eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.

"It's dead." Andonova leaned forward with interest, and lightly touched the basilisk's pupils with her wand.

"Poor thing, it has been imprisoned in such a small space for nearly 3000 years." Peter carefully stepped over the basilisk, and gestured to the inside of the stone gate. A statue of Haierbo stood in it, holding a It is a regular quadrangular pyramid, and the top of the pyramid emits a constantly rotating white light.

Andonova's magic disc vibrated quickly, and she asked in amazement: "There are so many black magic behind the stone gate, why can't we detect it through the stone gate?"

"I'm afraid it's a kind of shielding magic," Peter explained absently while observing the regular pyramid, "There is no magic that leaves no trace, but it is feasible to use the traces of shielding magic to cover up the traces of black magic under certain circumstances... ..."

"Pharaoh's regular pyramid." Andonova's brown eyes glowed, "This is... a priceless treasure... The energy of the star that exploded 6000 years ago has disappeared, and we will never have another chance to create another The same magical creation."

"Yes, my dear," Peter raised his wand sadly, "but it has been turned into Herbo's Horcrux, protected by evil black magic, so there is nothing else we can do..."

Fiercefire sprayed out from the tip of his staff, and the white light at the top of the rectangular pyramid disappeared. At the same time, a shrill scream echoed in the room, and the smile on the Haierbo statue turned into panic. After just 30 seconds, the statue disappeared. It turned into a pinch of dust.

"Peter Peddy...you..." Haierpo's remnant soul whispered angrily for the last time.

Peter shrugged his shoulders contemptuously, "Every Dark Lord says he will return eventually, but unfortunately, even if you take away the treasures guarding the tomb of the pharaoh, the wings of death will descend on your head."
