My slow journey to infinity

The so-called Slytherin Chamber of Secrets is a huge stone hall.

But except for the three- or four-story-high dome and the huge snake head sculptures on both sides of the water platform, this place is no different from the sewer hall.

"Ginny! It's Ginny!" Harry saw Ginny lying unconscious at the end of the platform and rushed over while shouting.

Even when he squatted down to check, he dropped the wand on the ground, making Wang Shui shake his head.

"Geralt! Ginny, she's alive, she passed out, Ginny! Wake up!"

"She won't wake up."

Along with the gloomy atmosphere, from a fork in the road that could not be seen clearly, the student Voldemort - "Tom Riddle" came out.

"Tom? Is it you? What do you mean you won't wake up? Are you a ghost?"

"I am a memory, a memory that has been kept in a notebook for fifty years."

Harry's bombardment of questions only made Tom smile, and he slowly approached Harry, distracting Harry with conversation, and actually trying to pick up Harry's wand from the ground.

However, just when he was about to succeed, the wand on the ground suddenly flew towards the entrance.

Aqua regia grabbed the flying wand and at the same time pulled Harry and Ginny with his left hand.

Harry screamed as he was flying in the air, and when he landed, the familiar soft air ball caught him.

Aqua regia threw the water-soaked wand to Harry and said helplessly:

"The ground over there is full of water. If you want to save her, take her to the school hospital to find Madam Pomfrey. Also, did the wand in your hand affect your crouching down? Why did the wizard throw away his? A magic wand?”

"Senior Geralt, I..."

Harry couldn't explain his impulse for a moment, but Aqua Regia had already turned his attention to Tom Riddle, who was in a daze.

"What? An unexpected person came here, causing your thinking to be insufficient? This kind of soul form is really rare. Generally, split souls will not retain personality and memory, but are just pure energy fragments.

Split memory will double the weakening of the body's power, and may even induce mental illnesses such as split personality, and the process is quite painful.

The tutorial for making Horcruxes is not very detailed, but there is also a special length warning. So, are you forced to do it? Is it to prevent Dumbledore's Legilimency? "

"Who are you?!"

"Geralt, a lover of magical animals. Now that I have introduced myself, is it time to end tonight?"

Wang Shui raised his finger, took the notebook in Ginny's arms, and then said helplessly:

"After all, it's just a memory from the fifth grade. It's not much better than Harry. Why didn't you hide your original notebook after you left him here for so long?

Even if you can't take it away, you can at least let the basilisk swallow it, right? Or do you still naively believe that Horcruxes cannot be destroyed? "

"You! You are not a Ravenclaw student!"

"Infuriated? Sure enough, it's not just a memory. There should be a connection between you and Voldemort. There are things after the fifth grade in your memory. Many details can't be known by controlling Ginny.

Okay, if you don't call out the basilisk, we'll leave. "

Tom couldn't stop what Aqua Regia said, but the next moment, his expression became decisive and fierce.

"Since you are seeking death yourself, go die with them! Sethae-He-This."

Tom used snake language to open the hole under the huge stone sculpture, and the huge basilisk that had been prepared for a long time came out of it.

While Tom was talking, Aqua Regia had already thrown forward a small spherical glass bottle, which contained a transparent liquid that shimmered with golden light.

As the basilisk emerged from the hole, the spherical bottle in mid-air exploded instantly.

The strong light and fire instantly dried up the damp water stains on the platform, and also burned the basilisk until it roared in pain, and the snake's head hit the statue next to it heavily.

Tom suddenly felt something bad, but he himself was not harmed by the bright light in the sky and the falling flames.

"Geralt! Geralt?!" Harry's head was tilted by the aqua regia, so he did not look directly at the bright light immediately.

When he saw the basilisk's eyes burned white, his first reaction was to notify Wang Shui in surprise.

However, when Harry looked around, Aqua Regia had already put on the wide goggles, took off the dark silver sword behind him, and rushed towards the basilisk.

The basilisk's death gaze is a curse, and Aqua Regia cannot guarantee that without vision, the opponent will not be able to activate the curse.

Moreover, this kind of blinding is a spell effect, not physical damage, and the blinding is only temporary.

The basilisk was temporarily blinded, and its head fell on the stone statue. Now it was dizzy.

Wang Shui took the opportunity to jump up cleanly and quickly penetrated the basilisk's skull with a strong and sharp special silver sword.

The basilisk shook its head violently in pain, sending the aqua regia flying into the air.

But even without using magic to fly, Aqua Regia is protected by the [Super Mobility] module.

Without wearing mobile armor, various modules can also play some roles. For example, the [Energy Shield] module can provide quite good protection.

The [Super Mobility] module allows Aqua Regia to maintain low-intensity free mobility.

The basilisk's brain was injured and it soon became a little weak. Wang Shui found the opportunity to rush forward and add a few more swords, and finally killed the huge basilisk within a minute.

Tom, the special memory soul body next to him, was stunned, and Harry leaned against the exit with his mouth wide open, but he somehow thought that a basilisk was indeed much easier to deal with than hundreds of giant spiders.

"Methods, courage, skills, and targeted methods are the basic qualities of a magical animal lover."

Aqua regia's summary restored the attention of the two stunned people. Harry's eyes were full of admiration, while Tom just gave aqua regia a vicious look before turning into a glow and disappearing.

It is true that villains who neither declare defeat nor speak cruel words are rare, but hiding in a notebook cannot escape the clutches of aqua regia.

"Since you don't cooperate, then I will do it myself."

There are actually many ways to destroy Horcruxes, such as the very rare basilisk next to Wang Shui. The poison of this big guy can destroy Horcruxes.

In addition, [Fire], which is not difficult to master in black magic, can also burn Horcruxes.

This flame will continue to grow in size and consume all combustible materials around it.

The fierce fire is difficult to extinguish and has the effect of burning the soul.

In the final analysis, Horcruxes are props that focus more on resurrection after death. They are just difficult to destroy, otherwise Voldemort would not have hidden Horcruxes everywhere.

"Okay, leave quickly and take the two outside with you."

Aqua regia refers to Ron and idiot Lockhart, but the Phoenix Fox in the original plot did not appear. I wonder if it is because Harry was not in danger and never thought of asking Dumbledore for help.

There was a lot of movement in the secret room, but no one outside noticed their adventure.

Aqua regia took the three little guys to the Gryffindor lounge and told them to explain things to Professor McGonagall early tomorrow morning, but to rest today.

The lounge was spacious enough for three guys to sleep. After the examination and treatment of aqua regia, Ginny also woke up.

You have to take action, especially Ginny. She knows that Tom controls everything she does, so her mood is very unstable.

Aqua Regia used powerful sleep aids to put the three of them into a deep sleep, and then they returned to the secret room with peace of mind.

He had three purposes for this trip. First, he wanted to see if there had been any changes in the plot. Second, he wanted to find the Awakened teammate who had died without a body.

Third, it's this huge basilisk.

Just as Aqua Regia imagined, this basilisk's energy response averages to level four. If the ability to instant death is taken into account, the danger rating may be very high, but its physical strength is not particularly terrifying.

In terms of wisdom, it can be called very average.

An extraordinary creature of this level is considered to be full of treasures, so Wang Shui specially set aside one night to break it down and put it into storage.

The most precious ones are the snake eyes and poison sacs. As for the snake teeth, snake bones and snake skin, they are also quite good. The snake meat also has many uses.

But, this basilisk is so dirty.

Aqua regia spent a lot of time cleaning it, and in the end only a lot of internal organs were left. Except for the snake gallbladder, aqua regia found nothing of value.

But in the basilisk's digestive tract, Aqua Regia felt an inexplicably familiar energy fluctuation among a pile of dregs.

After rinsing, a brass-colored badge with [B·M] engraved on the body caught Wang Shui's attention.

"It's the badge of the Michel Brotherhood. The guy named [Purple Magic Book] was eaten by the basilisk."

Sylvia's reminder gave Wang Shui an epiphany. He had seen this thing before, and it was on the chest of the hunting team leader [Shield Barbot].

"In other words, he did not die at the hands of Dumbledore, but was eaten by a basilisk? But why is there no news of student death in the school?"

While Wang Shui asked himself in a low voice, he found some seriously damaged equipment among the garbage, but did not find the remains of the mobile armor.

It seems that the awakened person did not have time to put on the armor when he was killed by the attack.

"Even if he doesn't know the detailed plot, as a battle-hardened awakened person, he will definitely be very careful when encountering such an incident with an immediate death plot.

Is it possible for an awakened person to be attacked completely unconsciously? Just this stupid basilisk and Tom the Soul? "

There are many doubts and many questions.

Wang Shui wanted to ask Tom Riddle, but the note showed no response. Tom could sense the surrounding environment, but now, he could only pretend to be dead.

Wang Shui's eyes were cold, there was no threat or inquiry, he just activated the alchemy skill cleanly.

Black and white lines instantly filled the notebook.

As a special remnant soul, Tom Riddle no longer has consciousness for a second.

The notebook with a black leather cover was decomposed and reconstructed by aqua regia. While keeping the energy inside intact, the notebook was reconstructed into a two-layered wooden disc.

To be precise, it is a wooden disc in the style of a pocket watch, wrapped in black leather.

The transformation is not complete yet, Wang Shui still needs to imprint additional alchemical arrays to complete this [Horcrux Radar].

Crushing the remnant soul Tom into soul fragments that retain his characteristics is the best way Aoi can think of to deal with it. He can legilimnize, but his target is limited to living bodies.

The remnant soul does not have a visual system in the physical sense, and its thinking is incomplete, and it is basically impossible to read information.

Wang Shui did not choose to destroy the Horcrux, but used alchemy to make it into a special state.

Now, Voldemort can no longer contact this Horcrux, but the Horcrux transformed into a radar can still unilaterally sense the location of other Horcruxes and even Voldemort himself.

Afterwards, aqua regia decomposes and destroys the dregs on the ground.

As for the badge that belonged to the dead awakened person, he put it away in a box with strong shielding properties.

As a result, Slytherin's secret room became quiet and empty again, as if nothing had happened.

…

…

Dumbledore returned to the school, the Chamber of Secrets was found, the basilisk was killed, and the school regained its vitality.

"That's what happened. With Geralt's protection, we rescued Ginny, but then we couldn't find the notebook. They seemed to be talking about [Horcruxes] or something like that."

After Dumbledore heard what happened, he sent Ron away, and Harry told what Ron didn't know.

"Horcruxes, this is why Voldemort is able to survive. Yes, Harry, I have suspected it for a long time, but now I am sure.

Harry, I need your loyalty and help, but this also requires you to study hard. When you master powerful power, we can end this mess, okay? "

"Of course, Headmaster Dumbledore."

After that, Lucius Malfoy came to question aggressively. It was similar to the plot. Dumbledore directly said that Voldemort was back.

Lucius was scolded and could only leave, but Harry suddenly became smarter. He borrowed a similar notebook with a black cover from Dumbledore, and then caught up with Lucius Malfoy.

Afterwards, Harry deceived Lucius just like in the original plot, using socks to trick him into giving Dobby (the house elf) his freedom.

Dumbledore saw Harry's wisdom and courage on the bridge through the small window of his office, and he nodded with a smile.

But then, his expression became calm and serious again.

Dumbledore returned to his comfortable seat and looked at Aqua Regia on the guest sofa opposite, while Aqua Regia was studying the motionless portraits of past principals.

"You didn't destroy the Horcrux?"

Dumbledore got straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I thought Headmaster Dumbledore would ask me if I was a student at Hogwarts."

Wang Shui said and pointed to his Ravenclaw College badge and scarf.

"I remember almost all the students, and you are not in the student list I have. Mr. Geralt, Ravenclaw students are very good, but I don't think they can kill the basilisk easily."

Dumbledore has always been very gentle and amiable. He loves the school and cares for the students.

But he himself is the most powerful wizard in this century. He is thoughtful and has extremely rich methods and connections.

Voldemort, who was talked about in the wizarding world, was also very afraid of Dumbledore. Although the old man was very old, his magical power had already begun to decline.

Dumbledore showed his due intimidation, but to Aqua Regia, Dumbledore was not considered an enemy.

"I respect you very much, Principal Dumbledore, but are you really sure that your memory is okay? You can carefully look through the student roster. In the third year of Ravenclaw, is there a person named [Demon A student of Dian], do you have any impression of him?"

Dumbledore did as he was told. He knew that Aqua Regia was not here to cause trouble, and Legilimency gave him friendly emotional feedback.

After carefully checking the roster, Dumbledore stood up suddenly. He took out a few small crystal bottles from the relatively hidden shelves in the office, and then used the Pensieve directly without shying away from aqua regia.

After Dumbledore recovered, he immediately looked at Wang Shui:

"Voldemort did it?"

"It seems that your memory has indeed been affected. I think Voldemort's lingering condition should not affect you, Principal Dumbledore."

Wang Shui did not continue because he did not know who was targeting the awakened ones.

I'm not going to talk nonsense...I'll faint first. If you have any questions, you can start a group chat and torture me...
