My Classmate at Hogwarts is Voldemort

Chapter 97 Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets

"Isn't Slytherin a great wizard? How could his secret treasure be hidden in such a place?"

Tom raised his head and looked around. It was an ordinary women's bathroom. He couldn't help frowning and cursed secretly.

"What are you doing? Why put such an important thing in the women's bathroom?"

Tom cursed and took off his school uniform robe, wrapped it up and hid it in the cabinet under the sink next to him, then wove his trousers up twice, bouncing and moving his limbs in place.

"Fluorescent flashes." He raised his wand, followed the faint light on the tip of the wand and looked at the pipe under his feet. This pipe is very spacious, and it can be seen that the purpose of building it at the beginning was not for drainage, and the inner wall of the pipe emits a The pungent musty smell reminded Tom of the place where Nagini used to live.

"I don't know how she is now?" Tom shrugged, took a deep leap, and jumped into the dark hole, "I don't know where Gnar is now?"

The inside of the pipe was dark and filthy, and it hadn't been cleaned for a long time. Moss grew on the dead mold, and the mold parasitized the moss, making the whole pipe slippery, and the unpleasant smell was even more pungent.

Tom wanted to end this disgusting journey as soon as possible, but the pipeline seemed to be endless. He looked around at other pipelines that led from the huge pipeline, and they were separated from the main pipeline by a rusty iron grid. , but most of the nets were already brittle to the point of shattering, and Tom ignored those branches with a disgusted breath. He didn't want to die young from tetanus here.

Twisting, spinning, and sliding down steeply.

Tom didn't know how long he had been sliding in the pipe, but he knew that the depth here was far deeper than the deepest dungeon under Hogwarts. He could hear his own breathing echoing in the pipe, and it was silent here. There is no sound that belongs to this place.

Following the light of the wand, he quickly discovered that the wand seemed to illuminate something not far below, and it seemed to be the end.

"Fly quickly."

Tom's wrist suddenly retracted upwards, then tapped forward, and immediately stopped the momentum of falling, and fell to the ground lightly like a feather. After adapting to the gravity for a while, he stomped his feet, moved his joints, and his movements were smooth And elegant.

"Hey...that's disgusting." He turned around and saw some sticky things on the pipe wall on the back of his buttocks, and hurriedly took a wand to clean them off, then held up the firefly, and carefully looked at the surroundings environment.

"I should be far away from the school now," Tom thought about the direction of his fall, and noticed the water pipes criss-crossing like blood vessels above his head and the surrounding walls covered with moss due to damp, and said to himself, "This should be The outlet of the school's drainage system, so I think I should be under the Black Lake. There are many magical things living in the Black Lake. It makes sense that they have not been discovered for so many years... But opening the door with Parseltongue is really not a decent person A wizard's way."

"What am I thinking? Gnar said that you can't judge a person's good or bad by a certain quality." Tom laughed at himself, "Is he gone, and I'm going to reveal my true colors? Then I can't be laughed at by him." die?"

Tom held up his wand, and the light from the fluorescent spell could barely illuminate the darkness in front of him, making the darkness even more hazy. This underground secret room is really too big. Tom walked on the wet ground, so he had to wait a long time. It took a while to hear the light echo of his footsteps.

"I feel that I am really related to the sewer, and I can always find some strange things in the sewer." There was nothing in the secret room, and it looked like a real sewer. Tom felt a little cold, so he kept saying to himself These words are used to drive away the biting coldness, "But fortunately, this place is accessible from front to back, not a maze."

Tom passed a bend in the underground pipe, and suddenly, the sound in the pipe became louder, the sound of running water, the rattling of mice or other small animals, and Tom's own violent heartbeat.

He raised his head and stared at the behemoth that crossed his field of vision in front of him. The thing had a huge and undulating curve like a mountain range, and it was entrenched in front of him, blocking all the way, leaving no gap to pass through.

Its surface reflected a faint green cold light under the illumination of Tom's fluorescent spell, and the bright green made him feel kind:

This is a huge snake skin, at least 20 feet long, and the eye-catching bright green will make people who see it feel uncomfortable and even fearful immediately. The empty snake skin is curled up and piled up in the middle of the sewer, Tom noticed , there is some green slime flowing in the gap drilled by the giant snake, emitting fluorescence in the dark.

"No way." Tom jumped back like a trampled rabbit, and said with lingering fear, "This thing won't have radiation, will it?"

Tom remembered that when he wanted to go to London to experience the legendary "radium bath" that could cure all diseases, Nelson threatened him: "Everything that emits light by itself has radiation."

Although Tom still doesn't quite understand what radiation is, this doesn't prevent him from using the Levitation Charm to throw the snake skin into the branch of the pipe in the distance, and then quickly pass through here.

"I hope people are okay." Tom walked forward, even spinning his wand boredly. "Even if people are okay, there is something wrong with their knees now."

Tom found that the echo of his footsteps was getting louder and louder. He knew that he was near the end of the passage, and he was eagerly looking forward to finding something meaningful at the end of the pipe.

Finally, when he turned around another bend, a solid stone wall stood impressively in front of him. Two giant snakes entangled with each other were carved on the wall, and a few huge pure and gleaming green crystals were inlaid in the eyes of the giant snakes. gem.

In Tom's eyes, these giant stone snakes are no different from real snakes. They cling to the wall and look at their prey below, with dangerous green lights shining in their lifelike snake eyes.

"If there is nothing in it, these emeralds are mine." Tom distributed the wealth on the Slytherin door without awe, suddenly put away his playful expression, stared at the stone wall seriously, and said with a Parsel Cavity made a low voice:

"On."

The entire secret room began to vibrate violently, and the Parseltongue seemed to awaken the soul that had been dormant in this historic site for thousands of years. Tom heard bursts of aircraft roaring in his ears, and the top of his head began to shake off dust continuously. After a while, the secret room woke up completely, the rusty creaking sound subsided, a huge crystal lamp hung down from Tom's head, and a candle made of dragon fat that could not be extinguished for a thousand years was burning brightly, and the fire was cutting Under the refraction of excellent crystals, the secret room is dyed with a layer of mysterious brilliance.

"Very well, you are beautiful." Tom raised his head, staring at the precious crystal lamp above his head, "but when I come back, you will be mine."

As soon as the words fell, the two giant snakes entangled in front of them slid and separated. With the rotation of the magic mechanism on the wall, the one on the left raised its head and looked down at Tom, while the other bent down and looked at Tom coldly from below. Watching him——with the separation of the two snakes, the tall wall was split from the middle, and the two half walls were smoothly cut from the middle, disappearing without a trace.

Tom raised his head and saw a larger, darker, and more mysterious stone room in front of him.

"Mystery."

He smiled disdainfully, and stretched out his hand to pull out a silver pendant inlaid with emeralds from the sweater. The black amber at the bottom looked very bright in such a dim environment, and the runic letters engraved on the chain shone with warmth. In the bright light, Tom twisted his neck, shook the wand in his hand, and walked in without hesitation.

Different from the outside, the inside of this stone room that needs to be opened to enter is dry and warm. I don’t know what kind of magic and design can make the environment here comfortable even after thousands of years. Dozens of thick and tall stone pillars are placed in a row. Lined up to support the dome of the secret chamber, more giant pythons sculpted in stone were growing wildly on these pillars. They raised their heads upward, stretching their teeth and claws, until they disappeared into the dark dome.

"Although I like snakes very much, I still have to say," Tom walked straight to the deepest part of the secret room, until he passed the last pair of stone pillars, and a sculpture with the same height as the secret room jumped into his sight, " What a bad aesthetic."

He looked at the huge face of the sculpture: he looked very old, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, like a monkey, with a sparse but long goatee hanging straight to the floor-length robe, and standing on two gray legs On the smooth floor of the stone room, he slightly lowered his head and looked down at the tiny latecomer standing at his feet.

"You're just a stone statue." Tom raised his head to look at the stone statue without fear, and whispered his name, "Salazar Slytherin."

Tom took out a tattered book from his pocket. It was one of the two "Principles of Magic" given to Nelson by the owner of Lihen Bookstore in the first grade as a temporary out-of-stock replacement. Interestingly, in In the corners around the main text, there is no record of profound spells or powerful black magic, but the autobiography of an unknown adventurer who graduated from Hogwarts many years ago. These stories seem to be He wrote it when he was facing death in a dangerous adventure. At that time, he didn’t know why there was only such a textbook left by his dead wife, and this book was drifting to and fro in the pile of second-hand books in Lihen Bookstore. , until it was handed over to Nelson many years later.

"Exploring treasures is a difficult but enjoyable job. It not only requires explorers to have strong magic and skills, but also has historical knowledge no less than academics, because the whereabouts of many secret treasures are often hidden in places that people don't know. The hidden corner of the place." Tom slowly opened the book to the place he marked, and read the long paragraph, "Of course, the most important thing is luck..."

"...Salazar Slytherin was one of the founders of Hogwarts. Opinions vary as to why he left Hogwarts, but his contribution to the school is beyond doubt. He created the Defense Against the Dark Arts teaching system that is still in use today, and even the castle of Hogwarts belonged to him earlier, which makes people wonder whether he would be buried in this ancient castle that belonged to him Some purposeful foreshadowing..."

"...When I was studying at Hogwarts, there was a rumor about Slytherin's secret room in the school. It is said that before leaving Hogwarts, he left a room in the castle that only his heirs could open. The Chamber of Secrets, hoping to assist his heir to clean up the non-pure-blood wizards in the school in the future-this is of course nonsense, although Slytherin was born with pure blood, but "Who is the first pure-blood wizard in the world?" ?' was also uttered by himself, I am more inclined that he left Hogwarts for another reason, but he should have left something on campus..."

"...During the seven years I was studying at Hogwarts, I explored almost every corner of the castle. In fact, I found some interesting little things, such as the magical room in the corridor on the eighth floor, For example, the room behind the door knocker of the Ravenclaw Tower, or the ubiquitous but untraceable embossed snakes in the castle-I didn’t understand until I learned the manifest spell in the seventh grade. The legend about the secret room in the school It’s not groundless, each embossed snake needs to be triggered by language, and may trigger different mechanisms, but I haven’t been able to guess the password, but I have some guesses based on Slytherin’s personality and preferences, and compare them here with these Record the location of the relief, I hope someone will see it later..."

"You're right." Tom stepped forward, facing the huge sculpture of Slytherin, with a gleam of red light in his eyes, he turned the next page, and softly sang what the unknown senior said in Parseltongue. Guess all the "spells" to:

"Slytherin, the great legendary mage!"

"Master of Hogwarts, the great Salazar Slytherin, your heir is here to pay his respects!"

...

"Open your eyes and see, Slytherin, the Supreme of Hogwarts!"

Tom didn't know how many beautiful compliments he had read, and even he felt that he was too greasy, but he suppressed the discomfort and read it. I have to say that the old senior's guess about Slytherin was correct. He really is a person who "focuses on honor" and likes to listen to people's praise.

With a tooth-piercing clicking sound, the eyes of the Slytherin stone statue slowly looked straight ahead. When the pupil was in the middle of the eyes, it began to rotate and emit a faint green light, covering the entire secret room Among them, brighten up.

Tom turned around, and noticed that the originally dark and invisible dome became brighter, and Slytherin's eyes seemed to switch on and off the light source in the entire chamber of secrets. Only then did he realize that the structure of the chamber of secrets was exactly the same as the auditorium hall of Hogwarts Castle, And the dome above his head also has the same function as the hall of the auditorium. Huge squids are swimming among the thick aquatic plants, bright fish schools walk through it in groups, and starlight shines through the pure black lake. It turned into little stars and fell on the stone pillars in the secret room, and the giant snakes on them also came to life, forming letters one by one—each pillar represents a word.

Tom looked at those stone pillars, his pale face blushed instantly, and his body trembled violently. He saw that the words on each pillar represented a type of magic, and he only needed to look at the little snake at the bottom of the pillar. Say that word in Parseltongue, and Slytherin magic is at your fingertips...

"Oh, my God..." Tom glanced at those alluring stone pillars, and murmured towards one a little farther away from him, hissing softly from his throat, "Transformation."

The starlight sprinkled from the dome began to rotate violently, making people dizzy, and finally, on the blank wall at the side of the secret room, words written with starlight appeared on it, and the fonts appeared cold and smooth, like snakes.

"How about magic is another story, but it's too cool." Tom raised his head, saw that the starlight in the black lake had dimmed, realized that it was already late, and suppressed the desire to stay here and study, He turned and left without looking back.

The moment he stepped out of the secret room, the sculpture of Slytherin lowered his eyes, and the door of the secret room was closed behind him, shaking off a lot of dust. Tom turned around and looked at the two giant snakes on the restored wall. Glittering green eyes made the stone snake tremble with fright.

"Not at all," Tom whistled excitedly, and couldn't wait to go back and write a letter to tell Nelson the good news. In order to speed up, he raised his wand, and his whole body slowly floated into the air, black smoke billowing from his lower body, Quickly flew in the direction it came from.

"This magic is really useful." Tom drilled out of the hole, found the school uniform robe that he had hidden before and put it on his body, and the sink slowly returned to its original shape behind him, "If you don't poke the needle, you can use it to fly."

He raised his legs and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard the cry of "beep beep beep" from the bathroom next door. Tom couldn't help but glanced sideways, but he was looking at the red eyes under the myrtle glasses.

Myrtle raised her head and glanced timidly at the sign above her head, it was the women's bathroom.

Tom's head was half a circle big, and based on the principle of preemptive strikes, he frowned and said, "Mytel, why are you here?"

Because this chapter is a complete story, it is not easy to divide it into chapters. (In fact, there are a few good places where the chapters are broken, but because they are published together, so the breaks are the same as the breaks.) There is another big chapter.
