Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Chapter 351 Sorcerer's Stone

"Although there are many differences, the successors of the Black family can enter Hogwarts, which proves that our decision to establish a wizarding school was completely successful." Gryffindor walked back to his long table and said complacently, "For nearly a thousand years, I have closely observed the changes in Hogwarts in the centaur tribe. I have seen many talented wizards graduate from the school and promote the development of the wizarding world. This is completely in line with our original vision. The Sorting Hat and The past generations of principals have done a good job, developing and growing in full accordance with the philosophy we left behind, and I believe the three of them will be satisfied seeing this."

"Are you talking about Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin?" Ivan asked, "They also kept their consciousness like you?"

"That's right, this is Helga's proposal. Let's keep a part of our consciousness in our own treasure keys, so as to observe the changes in Hogwarts with our own eyes." Gryffindor explained, "After leaving After discovering the secret treasure, we separated our respective consciousnesses, but I don’t know where the three of them hid the key, this matter is completely top secret, and you can only find it yourself.”

"I have some clues now." Ivan nodded. According to the previous analysis, Ravenclaw's treasure key should be kept by the mermaid.

He also had guesses about the location of the keys to the Slytherin and Hufflepuff treasures.

The question now is what exactly is the treasure key left by the Big Four and why it has such a powerful magic power. He raised this question.

"The treasure key is actually four Sorcerer's Stones, the treasures of our four families, the highest achievement of ancient alchemy."

Gryffindor waved his hand, and a red gem appeared out of thin air on the long table in front of him.

The whole body of this stone is bright red, with golden rays of light flashing through it from time to time.

"In our time, the pure-blood wizard families more or less had something inherited from the ancient warlocks." Gryffindor said, "The Sorcerer's Stone is a typical representative of it. With the current magic theory and materials, it is almost Impossible to craft, but not so difficult for the ancient alchemists."

Ivan froze for a moment, he didn't expect the treasure key to be the Sorcerer's Stone.

At present, the only surviving Philosopher's Stone recognized by the wizarding world is left by the famous alchemist Nicole Flamel. It can turn stones into gold and make elixirs of life.

Because of Voldemort, it was finally destroyed by Dumbledore and Nicole.

Unexpectedly, the Big Four would leave four Sorcerer's Stones as treasure keys.

It's really shocking, let's not talk about what is hidden in the secret treasure, the four magic stones alone are rare treasures beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Ivan held his breath and carefully observed the red gem in front of him. The magic power contained in it was shocking.

Needless to say, the Philosopher's Stone is a powerful magical item.

It is something that all wizards dream of. In addition to powerful magic power, it also has many fantastic functions, such as making elixir of life!

"Turn a stone into gold, live forever, and the Sorcerer's Stone can always attract people's imagination..." Gryffindor stared at Ivan, as if he could see what he was thinking, and said with a smile, "It's a pity that the magic left by the four of us The Philosopher's Stone does not have these. You know, the Philosopher's Stone has different uses according to the method of alchemy and the materials used."

"Then what is the use of this magic stone?" Ivan raised his head.

"It's just a keystone now, which can open the secret treasure we left behind, that's all." Gryffindor waved his hand again, and the magic stone on the table disappeared into smoke, "Obviously, under Rowena's design , The treasures left by the four of us need powerful magic power to open. Magic items that can provide such powerful power are very rare. After some selection, we have transformed the four magic stones, canceling their original purpose, Let the magic power contained in it become more pure, and can provide the necessary magic power for the opening of the treasure."

It is hard to imagine what the Big Four left in the treasure.

For this reason, they actually destroyed four magic stones, canceling their original dreamlike effect, and transformed them into energy stones with only powerful magic power.

In Ivan's view, this is pure prodigal behavior.

"Of course, because of its strong magic power, this Sorcerer's Stone can also help wizards improve their magic power." Gryffindor said with a smile, "What your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor and his three partners did is Very good, the map they made using the energy overflowing from the Sorcerer's Stone is very interesting."

"That's the Marauder's Map, it can show all the secret passages in Hogwarts and the names of the people on them." Ivan nodded.

"It's a very genius idea, and the knowledge about the location of magic and the magic power of names involved is of great practical value." Gryffindor said in admiration, "This is the progress of the wizarding world. In our era, there were very few wizards. We will study these, influenced by the ancient warlocks, we will only study those powerful spells or try to summon undead, demons, evil gods and the like."

They discussed the principle of making the Marauder's Map for a while, and it could be seen that Gryffindor was very interested in this knowledge, and he asked a lot.

Aiwen told everything he knew, and besides that, he was still thinking about what they left in the secret treasure.

"What did you leave in the treasure?" he asked curiously.

"It's definitely beyond your imagination. I think you should leave a little expectation instead of revealing all the mysteries."

Gryffindor blinked and made a naughty look at Ivan.

Then, before Ai Wen could react, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression became serious, "Okay, we have wasted too much time, now we should talk about the test I left, only by passing this test , you can get the Sorcerer's Stone."

"What do I need to do?" Ivan touched his wand, and he was ready.

"I originally planned to let you face the deepest fear hidden in your heart and test your fighting ability and courage." Gryffindor said, "But after you entered this illusion magic, I changed my mind. It doesn't make any sense that the descendants of Raitlin or a few fire dragons will stump you. Therefore, I specially prepared an extra test for you."

"An extra test?!" Ivan suddenly had a bad feeling.

"That's right, I'm going to let you see the horrors from the nightmare of the void, things you've never seen before, and these are things you'll have to face in the future," Gryffindor said.

Chapter 352 Gryffindor's Request

Ai Wen didn't understand what he meant about the enemy he would face in the future.

It was hard for him to imagine why he was facing a nightmare from the Void, his next enemy was Voldemort who was about to return, nothing more.

Seeing Ivan's doubts, Gryffindor waved his hand, and the blood-red Sorcerer's Stone reappeared.

It was not as complete as before, but split from the middle and broke into two halves.

The crack was not smooth, as if it had been bitten into pieces by something.

"You should already know that because of the civil strife among the centaurs, the treasure key I left behind was split into two parts, and only one of them is left here." Gryffindor picked up one of the Sorcerer's Stones and shook it at Ivan , "If you want to get it, you must be prepared to face the centaur who took the other half of the Philosopher's Stone and the evil existence hidden behind them."

"I've heard that they once believed in an evil god called the God of the Forest, who used power to separate the Philosopher's Stone you left behind." Ivan replied.

Could it be that the nightmare of the void that Gryffindor mentioned was the indescribable evil god?

"The so-called evil god is actually a monster summoned by the ancient warlocks inadvertently from the void. It is sealed in the swamp deep in the Forbidden Forest." Gryffindor said seriously, "In the dark age, the pursuit of the powerful The warlocks of power did many crazy things. They used countless human flesh and souls to summon undead, demons, and evil gods. Many ancient evils were summoned. But with the end of that crazy era, the ancient darkness Creatures returned to the void, or were sealed away and fell into a deep sleep."

Ivan looked at Gryffindor in surprise. After meeting the evil creature left by Slytherin in the underground ruins, he looked through many ancient magic books.

In it, Ivan found some clues, but they were not complete.

This forbidden history is rarely mentioned, if not completely forgotten, let alone recounted like this by a wizard who lived through it firsthand.

"In our time, these powerful dark creatures from the void called gods had become a part of the myth just like the ancient sorcerers. No wizard had ever seen them with their own eyes. I was the same. I don’t believe in the existence of these things.” Gryffindor was silent for a while, then sighed, “However, what happened later proved my ignorance and stupidity. Back then, when Salazar was researching this, I used to laugh at him It's a waste of time."

"It's not that no one knows that Slytherin left an underground ruin outside the Forbidden Forest, and there is a monster like the one you mentioned inside..."

Aiwen recounted what he saw in the underground ruins some time ago, as well as the deduction about the despicable Hai Erbo.

Gryffindor didn't speak, he was lost in thought, pacing back and forth in the room.

"The monster you mentioned is very similar to the evil god I met, but it is not the same." He said slowly, "Obviously, that thing was created artificially. Maybe just as you deduced, It is dastardly Helbo himself, a wicked dark wizard who, using dark and unknown magic, wants to transform himself into a god."

"God?!" Ivan took a breath, not knowing what to say.

He stared at Gryffindor, feeling himself trembling slightly.

If these are true, Hai Erbo's ambitions are far beyond everyone's imagination.

He doesn't just want to escape the fate of death, but wants to become the god who dominates everything!

Splitting souls to make horcruxes, this kind of top-level black magic that has surpassed the general sense today, is just an insignificant part of all his plans.

"Salazar didn't tell us about this. He has been conducting research secretly by himself. In fact, his state was very unstable later. I originally thought it was because of the differences on the admissions issue." Gran A trace of worry flashed across Fendo's face.

He walked quickly to the long Slytherin table, picked up the huge scepter surrounded by two snakes and looked at it carefully for a while, and then the expression on his face gradually became calm.

"Aiwen, I beg you, you must find all the keys and open the treasure we left behind." Gryffindor looked at Aiwen seriously, "If what I am worried about really happens, then stay in the treasure It's going to be our only chance."

Ivan didn't understand what the other party meant at all, what was Gryffindor worried about.

Even Voldemort, whom he had just called the evil little Slytherin, didn't seem to mind, but now...

Gryffindor's reaction cast a thick shadow over Ivan's heart.

Things didn't look as simple as he imagined. He originally wanted to ask carefully, but Gryffindor didn't intend to explain.

"All in all, my poor centaur friends found the evil god in the deepest part of the swamp. They broke the seal left by the ancient warlock, brought it back to worship, and awakened it from its deep sleep." Gryffindor waved In order to signal Ivan to keep quiet, he continued to talk about the story of the centaur, "They called him the god of the forest, and offered flesh and blood to him. As its power slowly recovered, this evil creature from the void used dark power to Transform the horsemen."

Aiwen thought of the horrible statues he saw in the room of the centaur temple, and imagined that they were created by that evil god.

"As we all know, the centaurs are naturally powerful warriors, and they don't have powerful magic power. They are only involved in stargazing and healing magic." Gryffindor continued, "But under the transformation of that evil god, they Gained the ability to cast spells. The horse people were ecstatic, and no one thought that they would pay such a high price for it later. They were addicted to the power of darkness and were gradually transformed into terrifying monsters."

"Fortunately, not all centaurs believe in that evil god." Gryffindor walked up to Ivan and said, "With my help, the sober centaurs launched an attack on that monster and its believers. War, will finally reseal it that has just awakened, and banish those fallen from the Horde."

Aiwen didn't speak, just thinking about the tragedy of the centaur civil war.

"Before being re-sealed, the evil god tore apart the Philosopher's Stone that I left behind. It didn't seem to sense my existence, but thought it was a powerful source of magic power. Because what I left behind was only a piece of conscious thinking, which cannot Using magic in reality, you can’t stop everything it does.” Gryffindor said, looking at Ivan seriously, “You have to be prepared, if you want to get the complete key, you have to face the evil god and Supporting his evil centaurs."

"I know." Ivan nodded, his heart beating violently.

He was still immersed in the stories told by Gryffindor, deeply shocked by these unknown secrets.

"As I said just now, I have prepared additional challenges for you." Gryffindor continued, "I will use this phantom magic to retransmit you to the centaur war 800 years ago, so that you can see it with your own eyes. Take a look at the enemies you are about to face..."

Chapter 353

"In the illusion, you will personally participate in the tragic civil war of the centaurs." Gryffindor looked at Ivan, and he could not see any waves in his calm eyes, "Help the centaurs re-seal the evil god, If you pass the test, you will get the key to the treasure I left behind. If you fail, then you will be disqualified."

"If I get that Philosopher's Stone, your consciousness..." Ivan thought suddenly.

"With the help of the Philosopher's Stone and the power of the stars, this consciousness of mine has existed for so long that even I'm getting tired of it!" Gryffindor said calmly, "In the past thousand years, I have witnessed too many vicissitudes. It was a special experience for me, but it was also a kind of torture. After you get the treasure key, I will disappear completely. Do you have any questions?"

Alvin shook his head, feeling a little sad.

Although the other party was only a part of Gryffindor's consciousness, he still gained a lot from the short exchange, and he was a bit reluctant to let the other party leave just like that.

In addition, more is the hesitation of the future.Ivan is confident to face Voldemort, but he is not sure whether he can defeat the evil god that even Gryffindor marveled at and the monster transformed by the evil Hai Erbo.

Facing these indescribable things, he felt that his strength was still too weak. He needed a mentor. If Gryffindor could stay and help him...

"I believe that you will be able to overcome all difficulties and open the treasures we left behind." Gryffindor said happily, "It was true 1000 years ago, and it is true now. To have a student like you enter Gryffindor College, It's my pleasure."

He made a standard noble farewell etiquette to Ivan, waved his hand with a smile on his face, and the next second, the world in front of Ivan's eyes began to shatter.

Everything shattered, like shattered glass.

The fragments shone with silver light, fell one by one and disappeared, even Ivan's body.

This is a very wonderful feeling, watching my body disappear.

When the eyes turned into darkness again, only Gryffindor's deep voice could be heard intermittently from far away.

"By the way, that little guy from the Slytherin family came here 50 years ago. He left a black spell on the Sorcerer's Stone. It's very clever. It may cause you a little trouble, but I believe you will overcome it." Difficult, as long as the cracked Philosopher's Stone is put back together..."

Wait a minute, the magic left by Voldemort in the past, Ivan instantly thought of Professor Trelawney's prophecy, the person who was about to be chosen by Voldemort in the dark temple.

He wanted to ask the other party what kind of magic it was, but he couldn't make a sound.

A strong sense of oppression came from all directions, and the surrounding air disappeared in an instant.

In the dark vacuum, Ivan felt that he could not breathe, as if he was about to die like this.

When he regained his senses, he found himself lying on the grass and panting violently.

"So, you are the aid that the elders said?!" A strange voice sounded beside Ai Wen, "It's ridiculous for a pony who is not yet an adult."

Ai Wen raised his head, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, he found himself lying on a small hillside.

He was surrounded by tall trees whose tops could not be seen, and a proud centaur stood beside him.

Unlike the centaur he had seen before, he was wearing a strange gray leather armor with a bow and arrow on his back, and his body was as strong as a hill.

The horseman spoke a language that Ivan had never heard, but he could understand it.

"Who are you?" Ivan asked, subconsciously touching his wand.

"Human, my name is Ugert, a warrior from the Centaur tribe." Ugert held a huge silver spear in his left hand, flashing a heart-pounding light in the sun.

Aiwen suddenly realized that it was him, no wonder he looked familiar, this centaur was the ghost he had just seen in the centaur temple.

According to Margery, he was the greatest warrior in the history of the Centaur tribe.

Ivan still remembers that this guy named Ugt killed an adult fire dragon and many other unimaginable monsters.

"Hello, my name is Ivan, I'm from Hogwarts, it's..." Ivan hesitated, and continued, "Gryffindor asked me to help you."

"I know, the elders have ordered, that's why I stayed here and waited for you, I hope this is not a waste of time." Ugert said gruffly, "Get up, we don't have time to lie on the ground, my clan People are launching an attack on the tribes occupied by the traitors, and we must rush there as soon as possible."

He came over and grabbed Ivan roughly from the grass.

Uggart rubbed his front hooves on the ground, staring at Ivan suspiciously.

Immediately, he pointed to the depths of the Forbidden Forest, motioned for Ai Wen to follow his footsteps, and whispered in his mouth that Ai Wen was too thin and not strong enough.

"We must hurry, human!" said Ugert.

Aiwen followed him and ran forward, but the centaur was advancing too fast, and soon disappeared into the woods, leaving only the echo of the horse's hooves falling on the ground.

"Damn it, wait for me, you bastard, how could I race against the centaur in the woods!"

Looking at Ugt's back, Aiwen was secretly anxious.

Who knows what might have happened if he hadn't made it to the centaurs in time.

He still remembered that his mission was to help the centaurs win the war and reseal that damned evil god. If he spent two or three hours rushing there at normal speed, and everything would be over by then, then his challenge would have failed.
