Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

The embodiment of Tom Riddle's soul dissipated with the shattering of the diary that held it.

Astoria, who was originally unconscious from being dominated, gradually turned rosy after Riddle's death. Then he gradually opened his eyes.

Louis held on to his weak body while the basilisk Lili hovered around him. He was mouthing a letter, looking like he was trying to please.

"you're awake."

Lewis smiled miserably, his current physical condition was in a bad state.

"Wiggins?"

Astoria lowered her head, feeling a little depressed.

"Sorry, Wiggins, I..."

"It's not your fault, Astoria." Louis touched her white hair, "No one can resist Riddle's temptation, even if it was me, the ending might be more tragic."

"But, I have harmed many people, including my sister." Astoria sobbed, "I will be expelled from school like this."

"No, Dumbledore wouldn't do that." Louis hugged Astoria, who was leaning against him. Her tears had already wet Louis' robe.

"Besides, you are my friend, and it has always been my belief that you will never abandon a friend."

"A friend? But if I treat you like this, you still treat me as a friend?"

"Of course." Louis reached out and wiped Astoria's red and swollen cheeks. "You've always been my friend."

The word friend is extremely luxurious for Astoria. She has been living under Daphne's halo since she was a child. No one in the circle of friends around her is sincere, and they all follow her sister's interests.

"Pfft!" Looking at Louis' sincere eyes, Astoria burst into tears and smiled. Her eyes that were already red from crying looked particularly charming now.

Just like Riddle said, Astoria is a poor person. She does not have a life of her own. Everything is arranged for her by her father and sister, not to mention that she will have the Bloodborne Curse in the future. distress.

It can be said that all this is the fate of the Greengrass family. But after meeting Louis, the arrogant woman has already launched a rebellion against her fate.

But when she heard that Louis called her a friend, her heart was really touched.

What is a friend? They will go through fire and water for you, save you even at the risk of their own lives, take care of each other, grow together, share blessings and share hardships. Maybe this is what friends are for.

"Louis, how are you?"

Harry threw the sword aside, and he and Astoria helped the weak Louis up from the ground.

"I'm fine. Let's go see Ginny and Lockhart."

Although Ginny Weasley was attacked by the basilisk, fortunately her injuries were not serious and she slowly woke up after a while.

But Gilderoy Lockhart was not so lucky. Louis' powerful magic poured into Lockhart's body, and his brain was violently impacted by the stone wall of the chamber. If you get a concussion, it's considered mild.

"Well..."

Ginny and Astoria supported Louis on the left and right, while Ginny stared at Astoria with unkind eyes, and she raised her lips towards Ginny, as if there was fire in her eyes. .

Women are such troublesome creatures.

"Roar!"

Just as everyone started, the basilisk stood up and blocked their way. Ginny and Astoria drew out their wands at the same time, while Harry dragged Lockhart and the sword with a wary look on his face.

"It's okay, but Lili, I can't take you out of the secret room with you like this." Lewis communicated in a snake accent.

Ginny and Harry were used to it, but Astoria's face was full of shock. She never expected that a Gryffindor house would actually be such a talker.

How many secrets does this guy have hiding?

The basilisk twisted its body after hearing this. It seemed to tell Louis to wait for him for a while, then turned around and crawled towards the statue cave.

After a while, it came back again, spitting out an emerald green stone with Slytherin's logo engraved on it lying on the ground shining.

"You want me to put you in a stone?"

The basilisk nodded excitedly and twisted its body happily like a child. Lewis looked at the green stone. In Slytherin's memory, it seemed that there was indeed such a magic stone used to hold magical creatures.

Since Louis touched the origin of his soul, some memories belonging to Slytherin were also opened. This is why the basilisk gave up attacking him. It saw the shadow of Slytherin in his eyes.

"But I'm running low on magic power now."

Just as Louis finished these words, the snake-shaped beauty suddenly flashed a fierce light. The basilisk slammed its head towards the stone.

With a snap, the entire body of the basilisk rushed straight into the stone, and then the light dimmed again, turning into an extremely ordinary stone.

This scene, like the magical biologist and Newt Scamander's small suitcase, actually uses relatively profound space magic.

"Let's get out of here, Fox, you're in trouble." Louis put the stone in his arms. It was indeed a very good thing to have a basilisk as his bodyguard.

Fox shouted with some dissatisfaction. The majestic phoenix turned into a tool bird to deliver hats and vehicles.

The other side of the secret room led to an abandoned cave on the edge of the school's forbidden forest. Everyone grabbed Fox's feet and looked down. Even with a shock-absorbing spell from such a height, he would be shattered to pieces.

Slytherin thought of everything when he built the Chamber of Secrets.

After Fox sent everyone back to the castle, he flew away.

They met Hermione and Ron who were waiting anxiously in front of the Fat Lady's portrait.

"You are so reckless. Dumbledore has received the news. I think he will come to you soon." Hermione scolded Louis and others.

"And you, Ginny, if dad finds out..."

"He will definitely praise me, Ron." Ginny made a face at Ron, "And haven't we already solved it?"

This is a fact, but Louis seems to have a headache when he thinks about Lao Deng coming to ask questions later.

"Professor Lockhart, what happened to him?" Hermione saw the unconscious Gilderoy Lockhart on Harry's back.

"After being controlled by Riddle, he suffered brain trauma. It's physical, so I'm afraid it's difficult to cure."

Lockhart is a master of the Forgetting Curse, and he can always use the "Forget All" skill to perfection. However, this time he was subjected to such a severe physical Forgetting Curse, even if he could wake up, he would forget his own memory. In this way, his lies will be exposed.

But Louis has slightly changed his mind about Lockhart, because he was more heroic in the chamber of secrets than a mid-level hero, and he somewhat hopes that Lockhart can recover.

To be fair, Lockhart's situation was also the result of Louis' own actions.
