Head of Teaching at Hogwarts

"You seem very smart, so why don't you hurry up and pay homage to the great Slytherin?"

Let’s call the thing in front of him who claimed to be Slytherin himself the ghost of Slytherin. After he finished speaking, Russell immediately started the same verbal attack.

"Why don't you pay homage to the great Carl Russell, the living dead who should have been in his grave long ago?"

This was also his first reaction based on instinct after drinking the Felixir.

The two black beams of light that responded to Russell came from the eyes under the opponent's crown.

"Some magic similar to the basilisk." Russell made a judgment immediately, and then quickly retreated to avoid being hit.

He didn't get too entangled with the other party. This was just a data storage room. The place was too small, which was not conducive to Russell's dodge. The other party, as a seemingly incorporeal thing, did not have these weaknesses.

"Why, does the great Slytherin want to use the blood of a beast like the basilisk to improve himself and his descendants?" Russell continued to stimulate the ghost who called himself Slytherin.

When you hit someone, you want to slap someone in the face; when you curse someone, you want to expose their shortcomings.

Although Russell didn't know the specific reason why Slytherin became a bloodline theorist 1000 years ago when there were only a few wizarding families, this did not prevent him from starting to talk about this aspect. Cannon attack.

Of course, Russell was not idle either. He used this time to take out his wand, and without chanting a spell, a red light shot towards the crown on the head of the Slytherin ghost.

The green smoke around the Slytherin ghost gathered into a ball and blocked the front of the crown, preventing Russell from directly attacking the crown this time.

"Very good. It seems that Ravenclaw's crown should be the weakness of the Slytherin ghost. It is very likely that Slytherin himself has tampered with the treasures left by the other three founders. No wonder Voldemort is a Like those who have a collecting habit, they must use the treasures left behind by the Big Four to make Horcruxes. This is definitely related to the influence of Slytherin himself."

Russell made a quick judgment, and his mind was very clear at this moment.

"Ignorant latecomer, my greatness is beyond your imagination!" Slytherin's ghost seemed to be getting a little impatient.

Endless green and black smoke poured out, spreading into a human face screaming in pain, and rushed towards Russell.

"Thunderbolt explosion - molecular level!" Russell also waved his wand, and a ball of orange fireball and a grimace of smoke collided together, forming a huge shock wave, causing a choking feeling in the Room of Requirement, which had not been tidied up for many years. of dust.

Russell conjured a gas mask and put it on automatically, still observing Slytherin's ghost through the magic survey glasses, and found that he did not move.

"Slytherin's ghost probably can't leave that small room!" Russell quickly made a judgment.

"Then the safest way now is to leave the Room of Requirement immediately, and then find Dumbledore directly through Snape, and let Dumbledore help him. Anyway, what I did is not something shameful." Russell chose To be on the safe side.

Then he realized that he seemed to be lost in the Room of Requirement and could not find the door through which he entered the Room of Requirement.

In his mind, Russell quickly understood what was going on. After drinking the Elixir of Fortune, his thinking became extremely agile, just like a super-fast computer.

Three possibilities.

First, his initial words formed a magical agreement with Slytherin that was similar to a contractual relationship. Russell didn't know much about this aspect of magic. He only remembered that loyalty had an effect similar to a contractual relationship.

Second, theoretically speaking, Slytherin himself entered the Room of Requirement as early as 1000 years before Russell, so his original thought was probably - "Give me a room that I can only leave with my permission."

Third, Slytherin itself has access to the Room of Requirement. After all, according to "A History of Hogwarts", Hogwarts Castle was originally the castle of the Slytherin family. Although it was donated to run the school, It makes sense that Slytherin himself still holds some relevant authority.

But whatever the reason, it's not good news for Russell.

Being trapped alone in a secret room, facing an attack from Slytherin himself who may have lived for 1000 years, is definitely not good news.

The magic power of the Slytherin ghost seemed to be inexhaustible. Curses kept coming towards Russell, making him have no choice but to avoid them.

Occasionally, if you are unable to dodge, the protective magic released in advance out of stability will resist it and prevent Russell from being hit.

Even more difficult are the numerous black snakes on the ground that were summoned by Slytherin's ghost using a super powerful version of the Oolong Exit.

Not only is it highly resistant to spells, but it is also extremely difficult to entangle. Once it gets close to Russell, it will try to restrict Russell's movements by entangling him.

Russell tried to fly into the air to avoid these giant snakes, but it was of no use. The giant snakes seemed to keep spraying venom at him.

And Russell occasionally used some tricks to attack the Slytherin ghost. If he directly attacked the smoke that made up the ghost, the opponent would not care. If he attacked the opponent's crown, he would be blocked by a thick layer of smoke.

What makes Russell even more uncomfortable is that the other party is still using a strange magic to affect his soul, making him feel the discomfort of his soul being pulled out of the body every minute, and he has to maintain it all the time. He is under the Occlumency Curse, which greatly limits his performance.

Fortunately, there was a blessing elixir, which largely offset this negative effect. But even so, in less than 5 minutes, more than half of the dozens of layers of protective spells prepared by Russell in advance had been destroyed. .

"No, we absolutely cannot continue like this. We must find a breaking point!"

Russell pointed his wand at the ground beneath his feet, and a shock wave erupted from beneath his feet, temporarily sending all the snakes far away.

Then, Russell read: "Seawater is like a spring - electrolysis - decomposition." Balls of seawater began to gather from the tip of Russell's curse, and then were ionized into hydrogen, and then began to decompose into deuterium and tritium.

Russell began to constantly think about the several times he used nuclear fusion to cause explosions out of control. At the same time, he also temporarily lifted the brain sealing curse - of course, it was only for a moment.

At the same time, he roared: "Slytherin, I will make you an offer you cannot refuse!"
