Supreme, Supreme, Dark Lord!

The secret door in the toilet is absolutely clean nowhere to go.

Although I had such a cognition very early on, after the passage was opened, the two noble sons of Slytherin still frowned──

Secret rooms that have not been opened for a long time will generally have this smell. The smell is like history being locked in a dark room until it withers and rots. Now the festering smell is mixed with the unique excrement of the bathroom and the smell of detergent. The smell, wet, smelly and wet, made the two clean-loving teenagers feel sick for a while.

distortion.

Spin.

steep vertical descent

The distribution lines of the pipelines are intertwined like a spider web, and their distribution is also like the blood vessels under the skin of the castle rock.

The inside of the pipe was filthy and pitch black. After sliding in, Tom saw many other pipes leading sideways, but none of them was as huge as theirs. He could only vaguely know that the slide was far deeper than the school and The location of the dungeon, while sliding time still seems to have no end.

He could even hear the sound of breaking silk and low curses from Abraxas behind him because the cloth was torn by the protrusion of the pipe.

"...Damn it, this is my most normal dress!"

Hearing this sentence, Tom's originally nervous mood suddenly became much more relaxed.

The pipeline is very long, and Tom in it can't know how long time has passed. Feeling a little regretful, he can't help complaining in his heart why this secret passage can't be like a Floo network, but then the pipeline stretched out horizontally, and he also With a "bang" like a cannonball, it shot out from the end of the pipe and landed on the wet floor of the stone underground tunnel.

The greasy floor felt disgusting and dirty, and the paralyzed nose was so incapable of distinguishing a more special smell from it. Tom, who almost slipped on the floor, just stood firm with one step, and his slightly bent body immediately He was thrown down by Albraxas who swished out of the pipe.

The two of them staggered and fell on the muddy ground, their bodies covered in slime, and the surroundings were pitch black. Tom, who was pressed to the ground, let out a muffled grunt, but he could smell the very moist grass, trees, and soil... It felt like Voldemort's only The place where I took him on a trip was somewhat similar, was it at the bottom of the Hogwarts lake?

Tom pushed away Albraxas on his body, squinted his eyes and looked around while using the flame at the top of the wand as illumination, but when he glared at Albraxas who was still sitting on the ground with a dazed expression, Tom laughed, and pounded his belly against the wall, almost rolling his wand aside—

If anyone had the opportunity to see Malfoy, who had always been a little peacock, turn into a beggar chicken, he would hardly be better than Tom, not to mention how miserable Albraxus was now.

Originally disguised as the sun god Apollo, his clothes were in tatters, and the high-grade white gauze seemed to be dyed with ink. It was worn out and wet and hung on his thighs and knees, which made Abraxas The rest of the exposed skin is also black and white, well, this is without looking at his back.

Ridiculously laughing at his friend's funny appearance, Tom rubbed his stomach fiercely with laughter, and there were also dots of charming starlight in his dark eyes, but he didn't know that he was not much better for laughing at others.

Tom, who was crushed to the ground by Abraxas and fell into the mud, now only has his teeth and the whites of his eyes left on his white face. If he closed his eyes and closed his mouth, he might not be able to see it face to face without the lighting of his wand. It is actually the same as the little peacock with falling hair. The tortoise is laughing and the turtle has no tail, and it is inexplicable to laugh at Abraxas' trembling eyebrows and constantly twisting corners of his mouth.

The two boys then laughed at each other for a long time before barely stopping, each playing "clean up" for themselves, and then they continued to explore slowly by the light of their wands.

It was dark all around, and the dripping walls were also sticky. Although the underground tunnel under their feet was slippery, it felt soft to the touch. If they walked carefully, it was enough for people to stand up and walk, but the underground tunnel was really big and difficult to walk. It was very long, and the brilliance of the wand could only barely allow them to see a distance ahead. In the green fluorescent light of the wand, their shadows were reflected on the wall, looking like demons in the dark night.

Tom bared his teeth at Albraxas, but he was almost not intimidated by Albraxas's green skin. Malfoy, who was pretending not to care about his big blue eyes, looked very much like the skin of goblins and trolls. In the wrinkle-free fair version, the corners of Tom's mouth were raised a little, his chin was turned back, and he walked straight ahead with his head held high.

A large part of the so-called fear comes from the unknown, just like his fear of the dark in his youth.

In the past, he was afraid of knowing what was there, but later, he was afraid of knowing that there was nothing there.

It is useless to be full of fear before something happens. It will bring nothing but fear and cowardice. In this case, why not try to think about the way to deal with it after encountering the incident?

A crisis is an opportunity.

So Tom walked into the deep underground pipe without hesitation. It was a dark and empty space, as quiet as a lonely grave, but he was fearless, so he was fearless.

"Prove, I can..."

Mumbling, he said to himself.

"I deserve him, and he deserves me. 』

-

In this way, the two boys came all the way to the door. It was a solid wall, on which were carved two snakes intertwined with each other, and there were huge shining emeralds inlaid in the snake's eyes.

Tom and Abraxas looked at each other, with smiles on the corners of their mouths, then Tom cleared his throat, stared at the stone snake's beautiful eyes and said in a low and majestic voice: "Open. 』

He saw the green eyes of the two stone snakes flickering, perhaps because of the light on their wands, or perhaps because of ancient magic, and then the stone wall split in the middle, and the twin snakes that were originally intertwined were separated into two. Individual, the original obstacle disappeared without a trace after sliding away, leaving only two snakes standing upright like pillars.

The boys entered, and they found themselves standing at the end of a stone chamber, so large and dimly lit that they could not be seen clearly unless they went further inside.

Silently taking their own steps, the boys walked, looking at the flowers along the way, and admiring the lights that lit up like eyes when they walked in—well, they were really eyes.

They saw that there were many towering stone pillars in the stone room, and there were more stone-carved pythons wrapped around them than the doorway. The body of the giant python rose all the way up and disappeared into the dark ceiling, but the hanging head flickered well in the eyes. With endless emerald flames.

Abraxas gave a low sigh of admiration, as if he was surprised by the materials of the giant python and the cost of building this kind of underground secret room, but Tom just walked forward regardless.

Hard heel stepping on the stone ground, rattling, rattling, the sound of trampling footsteps seems to hit the wall every time, like hitting a ball, bouncing in the stone room one after another, and then emitting a somewhat empty echo.

The footsteps sounded ominous, especially when it was the only sound in the stone room, Abraxas felt his heart tremble slightly, but this kind of timid behavior was not Malfoy at all, even if he clenched the fish The wand kept up with the friend, one in front of the other, following each step.

Disappointingly, any possible attack-guard-organs didn't show up.

Thankfully none of this happened.

In this way, the two boys arrived at the bottom of the secret room smoothly. After the last pair of pillars, there was a sculpture with the same height as the stone room, and the statue stood close to the back wall.

They had to stretch their necks to see the huge face above. It was already quite old, and its appearance was not very handsome. It was even rude to say that it looked like a monkey, with sparse long beards hanging down to the bottom of the ground-reaching stone robe. , two gray legs standing on the smooth floor of the stone chamber... Except for this statue, there is nothing in the secret chamber.

Abraxas didn't show any disappointment when he saw this, he just silently cast his eyes on Tom, following it with very eager eyes.

Tom rubbed his nose, stepped forward and looked at the statue carefully. He said sentences such as "open" and "unlock" to the statue, but the statue didn't respond at all, so he smiled Concentrating a bit, breathing heavily, he walked around the statue calmly looking for clues.

The statue is just a statue, no matter whose symbol he is representing, Tom feels that it is just a stone statue with a long history and the material is not clear at a glance. It only changes when looking into the eyes of the Slytherin statue(?).

Salazar.Slytherin's eyes seemed to be green, but there was a sparkling red light in the depths. When Tom looked at those magnificent eyes, he seemed to see something in a daze.

It was a mysterious and wonderful state. Time was stretched very long and compressed like a thin line at this moment. When entering, it seemed that it only passed for a while, and it seemed to last for decades, and many phantoms appeared one after another. There are joys, sorrows, jokes, sarcasm, humbleness and hard work, but in the end, there is only one magnificent throne left.

A man in a long robe with curly black hair sat up. He leaned his hands on the armrest, supported his head, and looked at Tom lazily from a long distance away.

"Call me. ’ said the figure, ‘if you really want to seek my strength, you should know how to call my name. 』

That person's face was always buried in the shadows, blurry, but it gave people a very tall, majestic, dignified and inviolable feeling. When he was speaking, there seemed to be white light in the sky, and golden petals were falling. The famous female voice is singing hymn-like music.

Holy, Tom felt that this man was not at all like the huge statue in the stone chamber, but like...

"Voldy..." Tom sighed softly, in a trance, he recited that name with his heart, spirit, and god, with a longing and devout belief that he didn't understand, but the man The sacred light above his head suddenly dimmed, and the red carpet leading to the throne also became shattered and crumbled.

Tom felt the ground spinning under his feet, he had popped out of that phantom scene, and the monkey-like old statue in front of him also became angry, his huge face began to move, and his serious and tight mouth opened wider and wider, revealing a Huge black hole.

Tom's body was weak, because of the impact of the shattered illusion. Fortunately, Abraxas supported him from behind. They saw that there seemed to be something rolling in the statue's mouth, sliding straight up from the depths of the bottom, and at the same time From the dark hole came the sound of rough things rubbing against the rock wall: "The shameless intruder pretending to be a descendant, the guards of the secret room will give you the torture of eternal life!" 』

Tom almost instinctively released "split" at the big mouth, but he didn't even break a single beard of the statue, and a ball of green light flew out of the big flat mouth after Tom's magic light of the same color erupted. It grows when it sees the wind, and at first glance it is only seven or eight feet long, but after it hits the ground, even if it curls up and whispers, it feels like it is fifty or sixty feet long, or maybe it is actually Seventy, eighty feet? .

Tom saw a crown of bright red feathers on the snake's head, and behind him Abraxas cried out in a voice drained of all strength, "The basilisk... ...how could such a dangerous creature be at Hogwarts?"

The creature was completely foreign to Tom, and he was about to take a closer look, but his collar was ripped off by Albraxus, and his friend whispered in a flustered voice Tom had never heard before: " No... don't look into his eyes, the Basilisk's eyes are magical, and anything that looks directly into the Basilisk's eyes will die instantly."

Tom's eyes darkened, and since he had recovered from weakness he had pulled Abraxas into the shadowy cover of the pillar, a place where they could not see the eyes of the basilisk, but neither could they see the whole basilisk.

The two boys holding wands were on alert, leaning against the pillar and listening silently to the movement of the basilisk. They heard the basilisk sticking out its tongue, and the forked letter of the snake sounded like a whip twitching, and then the basilisk slipped in. In the shadow, everything seems to have quieted down, except...

"Kill, kill, kill, kill! 』

"Abraxas! Watch out for your backside!"

Sensing the movement behind, Tom grabbed Abraxas and rolled over on the spot, and the basilisk had already rolled up on the pillar, only to hear "Boom──", the huge and thick snake pillar that was surrounded by two people crashed It collapsed, and the originally dark lighting in the secret room seemed to be dimmed again.

Two Slytherin boys who were advanced learners took the opportunity to cast the strongest magic they knew on the basilisk. They saw two dark red rays of light were scattered by the rough surface and hit the dark stone wall just after they shot out. , leaving two inconspicuous scorch marks.

And the basilisk seemed to be even more enraged, it straightened its curled up body, bared its teeth and danced its tongue, and rushed towards the two boys...
