Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure
Page 184
Crunch, crunch, crunch...
Amidst the dry sound of the pulleys, the thick stone door slowly rose.
A turbid and damp smell gushes out from the secret passage, just as Ivan had expected, this secret passage extends deep underground.
With the rise of the stone gate, the manic magic power in the air was much denser than before.
Judging from the current situation, this secret path must lead to the location of the evil god.
On the thick dust on the ground, Aiwen also saw many footprints, which were the traces left by the vampires hiding in the dark from here.
At the end of the long, narrow passage was a large and frightening lovage plant.
Judging from its height and thickness, it has a history of at least several hundred years.
Lovage is a plant with strong characteristics, and it emits a special smell around it when it grows.
This smell can poison all the surrounding plants and make them wither slowly, even other lovage plants are no exception.
In the end, only one lovage plant can survive and enjoy all the nutrients in a certain area.
Seeing this big and scary lovage, Ivan finally knew where the vampires got the curse material cast on gold.
You know, lovage is mainly used to make the antidote, confusion potion and love potion of veritaserum. It will confuse human nerves and make them irritable and reckless.
Or let it gradually lose itself in the illusion constructed in the mind.
The sap ground from leaves of lovage is an essential ingredient in certain dark arts of bewitching the mind.
The growth rate of lovage is extremely slow. Ivan has seen a lovage in Professor Sprout's greenhouse before.
That one has been raised for more than 40 years, but it is still much smaller than the one in front of me, and the effect of confusion it can cause is also poor.
In addition, lovage generally lives in dark and humid places.
Beside it, Ivan saw a sloping downward channel, which was filled with red water.
The smell in the air was unpleasant and weird. Ivan remembered that Professor Sprout said that the smell of lovage would confuse people.
He held his breath and rushed into the pool, casting a head soaking spell on himself.
The water in the pool is very deep, and it goes down along the ancient channel, extending deep into the ground.
In the muddy water, Ivan couldn't tell the exact direction at all.
He could only dive by instinct. The red water gave people a sticky feeling, and Ivan soon knew what was going on.
Those vampires did not know what to do, mixed a lot of blood in it.
This was so bad, Ai Wen felt nauseous at the thought of being in blood.
Suppressing his nausea, he speeded up his dive.
But immediately, he felt something wrapped around his ankle.
He gripped the spell tightly and looked back over his shoulder.
Except for the red turbid matter, nothing can be seen clearly in the turbid blood water.
Aiwen groped successively, bent down full, and approached his ankle...
His heart was beating so hard that Ivan felt the approaching danger, and there seemed to be something in the blood.
He raised his vigilance and slowly explored forward...
In the next second, a ferocious, highly rotten face suddenly appeared in front of him!
Chapter 422 Vampires debut
With the faint fluorescence of the wand, Ivan saw a male corpse.
His face was swollen and deformed, and his mouth was wide open.
The tongue that had deteriorated and rotted into a dark brown sticks out long, and the complexion is pale and cold.
Almost instantly, Aiwen remembered the Yin Corpse he saw in the cave before.
He stepped back quickly, but his feet were firmly entangled by something.
Ai Wen struggled, and with a bang, he was pulled back violently.
He could feel that the corpse under his feet or something like a tentacle was not going to let him go, it was entangled him from bottom to top.
Because of nervousness, Aiwen's heart was beating hard.
Encountering this situation in the muddy blood, other people might have collapsed long ago.
The wand in his hand was aimed at the direction of the floating corpse under his feet, emitting several red lights in succession.
Bang, bang, bang...
In the bloody water, every spell of Aiwen aroused a strong impact of water flow forward.
Under the impact of magic, the already muddy blood became even more chaotic.
The male corpse was blown away by Aiwen's magic, but the tentacles on his legs entangled more tightly and shrank back.
The more Ivan struggled, the more entangled the things on his legs became.
Soon, he saw black vines wrapping around his legs to his upper body.
These rattans, Ivan suddenly...
It's the devil's net! ! !
He finally knew what he had encountered, a devil's net growing in the pool of blood.
This plant loves darkness and humidity, and can entangle alive creatures it catches to death.
This is the first time Ivan has seen a devil's net growing directly in the water. Perhaps due to the blood concentration in the pool water, the growth of this devil's net is gratifying.
This is a good research finding that blood has a stimulating effect on the growth of devil's net...
Aiwen shook his head, now is not the time to study these.
He swung his wand hastily, aiming straight ahead, and a blue bellflower-like flame shot out from the end of the wand.
The blue flames surrounded Aiwen with a fiery temperature.
They are harmless to the human body and can burn even in water.
In just a few seconds, the vines loosened their entanglement with Ivan.
It can be clearly felt that it is retreating to avoid the light and warmth brought by the flames.
The devil's net twisted and twitched, automatically loosening the tendrils wrapped around Ivan's body.
It took the corpse that was just blown out by Ivan, and shrank into a dark corner.
After getting rid of the devil's net, Aiwen continued to move forward quickly along the passage.
Worried about Sirius' condition, he kept picking up speed.
Fortunately, there was nothing stopping him in the blood water.
After passing through a winding passage, the descending slope began to slow down, and soon rose upward again, and Ivan heard the sound of gurgling from above.
At this point, the blood concentration in the water is already very thick.
It wasn't muddy and dusty as before, but completely blood red, with a higher degree of adhesion.
Aiwen even suspected for a while that the blood was real blood.
Gulp, gulp, gulp...
Like boiled water, the bloody water was constantly bubbling air bubbles.
Following these bubbles, Aiwen surfaced upwards.
Around him, there were all wizards who had just fallen, and they had become icy corpses, floating silently on the bright red water.
Red bubbles kept coming out from below, shattering and bursting beside them.
This blood pool is facing the huge gap above the temple, which is more than 1000 feet deep, and the top is so dark that nothing can be seen clearly, like a black hole that swallows everything.
Ivan didn't care about the surrounding situation, he was looking for the whereabouts of Sirius in the pool of blood.
"Good evening, human boy!" A deep male voice sounded from the front, "If you are looking for him, then you don't need to waste your energy inside."
Ivan raised his head and saw a dozen vampires in black robes standing on the ground outside the blood pool, and they were pointing at themselves with their wands.
In the center of these people was a middle-aged man with a stern face.
He has a handsome and tall appearance, wine-red eyes with deep and distant eyes, and an exquisite black cloak on his body, the skin exposed outside is extremely pale.
There was an evil spirit all over his body, and the light seemed to be deflected by him.
Aiwen could feel that a vortex purely composed of magic power was constantly rotating where his body was, devouring other magic power and light around him.
This vampire is too weird, Ivan has never seen such a wizard.
His eyes stayed on the other party for a short while, and immediately shifted to Sirius curled up in front of him.
He was bloodstained all over his body, and he had passed out, but he seemed to be breathing.
"Sirius!" Ivan shouted.
He just ran two steps forward, when more than a dozen spells of light struck his face.
Ivan stopped in a hurry, and the magic flew out of his body.
They weren't really attacking, they were just warning him not to move.
"Don't worry, this human being has a strong vitality and is not dead yet!" The middle-aged man said, "His life or death depends entirely on you. We have something to ask you."
"Let Sirius go, I'll tell you everything." Ivan said anxiously.
So it seems that these vampires are the ones planning everything behind the scenes. What do they want to know?
Could it be that they already knew that half of the Philosopher's Stone was on them? !
Ai Wen looked around, trying to find a solution to the immediate predicament.
He saw the pieces of meat and blood in the blood pool in front of him, being pulled by the magic, slowly upwards, forming a river in the sky, converging in the distance.
Other than that, there is nothing in the stone chamber.
At the same time, facing more than a dozen powerful vampire wizards and an unpredictable guy, no matter how you look at it, Ivan has no chance of winning.
"Don't worry, we still have time, we need to decipher the last magic left by the ancient centaur!" The vampire said slowly with an elegant smile on his face, "First of all, please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Carlyle Sith Slytherin, is..."
"I know Elaine, we are..." Ivan hesitated for a moment, then continued to shout, "We are friends!"
Hearing the surname Slytherin, he knew immediately who these vampires were.
"Elaine's friend?!" Keresis showed a little surprise on his face, "No, you shouldn't know her..."
"We met in Diagon Alley, just on Christmas Day." Ivan took out the locket on his chest and said in a hasty tone, "I know that prophecy and the trouble you are facing , I can help you, I have a Slytherin locket on me, and it is very likely that I am the one mentioned in the prophecy."
After Ivan finished speaking, there was a long silence.
Keresis didn't speak, and his wine-red eyes fell on the locket in front of Ivan.
His face was uncertain, as if he was thinking about what Ivan said.
Chapter 423 Distrustful ally
"Small human wizards, when faced with existence beyond your imagination, the only choice is to surrender, which will bring you unimaginable benefits!"
"Have you ever tasted the feeling of death?"
"Death is not the end of fear. In the long and strange time, death has its end. Only true power can be immortal. Do you want it?"
The whispers of the evil god continued to sound, speaking crazy words.
Under the torture of the other party, Ivan suffered from a severe headache.
Judging from the expressions of the vampires around him, it seemed that only he could hear the whispers of the evil god.
This evil god felt the magic stone on his body, and it was bewitching Ivan to fall.
Surrender to it and hand over the Philosopher's Stone to help it break the seal and come to the real world.
Unless he was really crazy, Ivan, who knew the true face of the evil god, would naturally not do that. He had to work hard to concentrate and wait for the decision of the vampires.
