Hogwarts Card System

Chapter 348 The hero returns home, the endless tower

It was cold and gloomy in the cave.

Ted casually threw a ball of light and it floated on the top of the cave.

There is a small lake in front of you, and there is a wooden boat, but you can't sit on the boat.

You clearly knew that you were here to steal Voldemort's things, how could you possibly take the boat he prepared?

Ted directly reached out and took out a handkerchief from the small bag. He shook it and turned it into a huge carpet of two meters by three meters.

The carpet was floating in mid-air, with the front side tilted up, and the tassels were gently swaying, making it feel like it was alive.

Flying Carpet: Uncle, come and play~

Great Britain banned flying carpets last year, but it was clear no one here wanted to pursue the issue.

Besides, this wasn't imported from the Middle East, it was made by Ted himself. Haven’t you seen something so enchanting and anthropomorphic!

Ted got on the magic carpet and called the others.

Dumbledore and others sat on the flying carpet, and Sirius was supported by his elf.

The flying carpet flew slowly over the water, and one meter below was the dark water.

According to Kreacher, the house elf of the Black family, when he finally disapparated and escaped, his little master, who had been deeply poisoned, had been dragged into the water by a large group of inferi.

This cave is equipped with anti-Apparition spells and many other defensive magics. Almost most movement magics don't work. Including door keys and the like.

Not only is there no way to escape, you can't even get to the locket.

The strange potion in the stone basin, if you reach in, you won't be able to touch the locket close at hand.

You just have to find a way to get the potion away.

But you can't pour the potion away even if you want to, because if you pour it this way or that, it will magically return to the stone basin.

Unless someone drinks it, this is the only way to reduce the potion in a short time.

It was only after several failed attempts that Regulus finally decided to sacrifice his life to take away something that Voldemort valued very much.

Because of the flying carpet, everyone arrived at the "island" at the end of the cave without any danger.

This is actually an irregular pile of stones about three or four meters in size.

In the middle, there is a stone platform that is only half a person tall and carved with mysterious reliefs. It looks a bit like a bathroom sink.

Don't tell me, there is a small pool in the middle of the stone platform, and in it is a potion that emits a light blue light.

Although Keqieli had already explained the whole process, Ted and the others still gave it a try.

Sure enough, none of the five or six methods I thought of before could get this magic medicine out of the stone basin.

While the potion is in the basin, no one can touch the locket in that basin.

If Snape were here, he might still be able to try to crack the potion.

In fact, he had already obtained the real locket. Keechley had placed the locket in Regulus's bedroom for more than ten years.

This thing was left by Slytherin in the Gaunt family. Later, Voldemort's mother Merop was abandoned by Voldemort's father and became starved and lived on the streets. In order to survive, his mother Merop sold the locket for 10 Galleons gold coins. Sold at a low price to Mr. Borgin, the owner of the Borkin-Bock store...

Voldemort should have discovered this heirloom in the Borgin-Bock store just after graduation.

Originally, Regulus' last order was to have Kreacher destroy this thing, but he overestimated the house elves.

Horcruxes are extremely high-end dark magic creations. Let alone a house elf like him, even a wizard of Professor McGonagall's level might not be able to do anything about it.

Unless it falls into Snape's hands, Ted believes that he will definitely be able to find a way to destroy the Horcrux - invent a magic potion like Magic King Water and turn it into slag!

Ted took out a half-red and white "Poké Ball" and threw it on the ground.

"Bang~" An ugly fish-man appeared, chirping. Although he had no weapons in his hands, he still rushed towards Kechili, who was closest to it and looked the easiest to bully.

Then Keqili pointed his hand and knocked the fishman down.

Ted grabbed the fishman and walked to the stone platform, took out a big spoon, and started pouring it!

The murloc's little arms and legs struggled at first, but after drinking a few tablespoons of Voldemort's special tonic soup, he calmed down. Even the squeaking stopped, leaving only moans.

When Sirius and Keechley saw the fish-man trembling in pain, and the expression of pain on the ugly fish's face, they both thought of Regulus who had suffered this pain in the first place, and burst into tears.

There is another reason for Keechley's crying - I never thought there was such a way!

Regulus had tried pouring potion on the goat, but it didn't work.

When setting up this thing, Voldemort set the condition that it only counts if people drink it.

In the end, Regulus, who couldn't bear to hurt others, chose to hurt himself.

But now, there is nothing left in the potion in the stone basin, which shows that Ted's relatively damaging trick is effective.

Murlocs are considered humans too!

Moreover, this potion will actually only cause severe mental pain and will not poison people.

What really killed Regulus was the severe pain after drinking the potion and the dissipation of magic power in a short period of time.

At that time, a large number of Inferi under the water were activated and rushed up.

But Regulus lost all his magic power and could not stand firmly.

In the end, the only option was to give the locket to Keechley and let him run away with it - house elves' apparation was different from that of wizards and was not the same system at all. They work even at Hogwarts.

Voldemort was so arrogant that he never thought about this kind of servant race. So a loophole was left, allowing Keechley to escape with the locket.

But because of the spell that resists displacement magic, Kechli cannot bring Regulus, who is a human, with him...

Sirius tremblingly picked up the imitation locket. I opened it tremblingly, and there was a note inside, with the handwriting clearly visible.

To the Dark Lord:

I will be dead before you read this, but I want you to know that I discovered your secret.

I stole the real Horcrux and planned to destroy it as quickly as possible.

I am willing to die in the hope that you will be killed when you meet your opponent.

R.A.B.

"Regulus, my brother..." Sirius held the note and burst into tears, speechless.

Lupine pulled him, afraid that he would fall.

Ted took out a small test tube from his arms, used magic power to form a bubble, wrapped the note inside and poured it out without being contaminated by any other scent, then put it into the locket, and then threw it into the stone basin.

The potion here is still in effect, and it will appear slowly in at most ten minutes. Until then everything will remain the same.

Sirius came here just to retrieve his brother's relics - the note, which could also be regarded as a token of Regulus' noble sacrifice, and his body.

Now, the note has been returned. Ted even put a new one in, hoping Mr. Voldemort would like it later.

Now, the operation to recover the bodies is about to begin.

In fact, there is no need to salvage them, because they will climb up by themselves.

When the potion in the stone basin was gone, the group of Inferi at the bottom of the lake had already been alarmed. It's just that they are slow and not good at swimming. They climb up from the bottom of the water one on top of the other.

Now, Regulus's body had to be found among the more than three hundred Inferi.

The Inferi is a zombie monster that is awakened and controlled through black magic. It is a monster that has no life, soul and mind.

They are afraid of fire and light, and like darkness and dampness. They are the walking dead.

Not only human corpses can be used to create inferi, but also animal corpses. But the human one is stronger!

Death magic like the Inferi is also a black magic that has been passed down for thousands of years. After all, for humans, death is an eternal terror.

Wizards must have studied magic in this area.

And Voldemort couldn't let him go. He was most afraid of death, and he had studied all the magic of death.

For example, the Inferi here are improved varieties.

Not only is it stronger, but it can also enter a standby state and exist for a longer time. It also has a very powerful ability called "infectiousness". The corpses of people killed by these Inferi will also turn into new Inferi.

In order to protect his Horcrux, Voldemort directly slaughtered all the nearby villages of ordinary people, and all the corpses were piled here.

Ted released the little soft...

There is basically no better way to eliminate monsters like the Inferi than burning them.

Falling apart? The body of this thing is as tough as that old wooden gada. A cut with a knife will only leave a trace of one centimeter. Even if it is torn into pieces, it is very powerful, and it is difficult to dismember it directly.

In fact, even if the body is dismembered, the hands and feet can still move!

It would be better to smash the body to pieces, just blow it into pieces.

The problem is that this consumes too much and cannot kill a few.

It's easier to burn it with fire. Efficiency and hassle-free.

Moreover, the Inferi are afraid of light, and the light of fire can prevent them from attacking together.

Dumbledore didn't even use his wand. He just waved his hand and summoned a ring of fire, surrounding the "island". There was only a large gap that allowed one or two Inferi to come in.

Ted released the little softie, and Kreacher and Sirius carefully identified it. If it wasn't Regulus, they would let the little softie eat and digest the inferi.

Even if the Inferi's body is tough, it won't be a problem for Xiao Ruan.

Even the "poisonous" magic power is just a dish to Xiaoruan.

Just like that, one by one was identified and destroyed one by one, until about twenty minutes later, an Inferi with different clothes was finally recognized...

When I returned to school, it was already a day later.

Hermione found Ted and wondered where he had been in the past two days.

Ted said to do something with Dumbledore.

Hermione did not continue to ask. After all, she had been watching Fleur and Ellie for two days and found nothing unusual. What Ted said must be true!

The sixth level of the competition was coming soon, and Ted and his friends gathered for a meal and had some fun.

After all, we have come this far, and the road ahead will definitely be difficult.

The chances of the friends being eliminated are too high, so I should give them a heads up so as not to be too disappointed.

However, he found that he looked down on his friends a little - after experiencing so many things, his friends had become very mature.

And their attitude towards the Seven Powers Tournament is relatively calm.

In Ron's words: "I never thought I could get to the sixth level. You don't know how disgusting my mother's praise of me was! Enough! Enough! Even if I am eliminated in the next level, I admit it too!”

Jerry also nodded. His mother and Sydney had both seen his performance through Utopia. My fellow villagers also praised him vigorously, saying that he had given face to Asians.

"That's good! We are happy to win, and we are happy to lose. This is just a small landscape on our long journey of life. We will eventually pass by it and move on. Whether we win or fail, it is our precious experience. Let us Just try your best and leave no regrets!”

After all, Ted got some information from the starting mission and had some guesses about the content of the next level.

Sure enough, two days later, the judging panel announced the content of the competition.

"The sixth level of the competition is called - Endless Tower!"

As Dumbledore finished speaking, the little wizards in the audience all stirred up. After all, the name of this level is very cool!

Endless! High tower! It’s exciting to hear!

Then Dumbledore explained the specific content and rules.

This time it is a complete "single competition", because this time everyone's assessment is the same, but independent. There was no contact at all with each other.

But in the end it depends on who has better results.

And the assessment is simple - climb the tower!

Everyone will keep climbing on an endless tower.

Each floor of the tower is full of monsters, and their number, strength and type will become stronger and stronger.

And all warriors must keep climbing, defeating layers of monsters, climbing higher and toward endless towers.

This will be a big competition of fighting strength, endurance and will.

Not only must you defeat monsters, but you must also defeat them with the least amount of effort.

Then another layer of monsters will appear, and the battle will continue.

Keep fighting, keep fighting...

Because you don’t know the status and results of other players, you can only fight with all your strength until you fall.

The little wizard and the audience watching the live broadcast became excited after hearing the explanation!

Each of them felt more excited than the warriors who were about to participate in the competition.

This kind of challenge sounds so exciting!

This is a challenge that true warriors should face!

In three days, the competition will begin.

Ted took his friends to discuss countermeasures.

In order to ensure "absolute fairness", the warriors are not allowed to bring any potions, herbs, pets, magic props, etc. except for a wand.

Therefore, magic power recovery, physical recovery, and even injury recovery magic are all necessary.

Ted is really not too afraid of this. His total magic power is probably comparable to that of Snape. If you add cards and other means, you can consume energy and kill two Snapes by yourself.

As for my friends, in these three days, I have to do some magic learning.

There are many magic spells in white magic that can heal injuries and restore physical strength. The friends lit up the lamps and stayed up late to practice.

As for magic power, we can only rely on using the magic spells we are best at to reduce consumption and strive to recover.

In fact, the wizard's magic power recovers very quickly. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to encounter a situation where the magic power is exhausted and there is no winner.

But this time climbing the tower is a special situation.

It depends on their own destiny!

There are only 14 warriors now, and each one is the best among the best.

People like Krum and Fleur are the No. 1 students in the school.

Moreover, they are two years older, so they are considered complete! In terms of magic power, it is even more advantageous.

But the final result depends on will.

Magic power is the embodiment of the wizard's will. If the will wavers, the magic power will soon fall.

Even Ted couldn't help but appreciate the content of this level.
