Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 519 The mysterious old man

"So, you want me to rediscover my heritage?"

"It's Dumbledore who wants you to find it again." Rackham added, "This is a part of the power to deal with the evil god. He also successfully convinced me that the red rune on his arm is part of the power of the legacy. ”

"But without a complete legacy, it is a disaster for the user. Moreover, Dumbledore's physique is not fully compatible with ancient magic. Therefore, the current situation is that the legacy is gradually eroding his body."

"Part of it?"

Louis suddenly realized that the royal goblin he went looking for with Dracula a few days ago happened to have part of the power of the inheritance.

"But, professor, aren't you a guardian? Don't you know where the inheritance is now?"

There was a moment of silence, the atmosphere was a bit awkward, and Professor Rackham shook his head helplessly.

"Of course not. That power is now sealed in the secret map room under Hogwarts. A hundred years ago, after the Randlock incident, in order to prevent it from being used by evil people, the new guardians divided the power into Second, part of it was given to me outside the secret room and is now kept in Dumbledore's body. The other part is in the map secret room and needs the book in your hand to open it. "

Louis carefully observed the pages of the book. This book had been there for several years. When he turned to the middle page that day, he suddenly found that two pieces of paper had been torn out of it.

"Professor, is this the way it is?

"

"This is the key to unlocking the secret room on the map." Rackham reminded, "The hidden pages have been taken away, and the key to unlocking them is in the information inside the book."

Therefore, he still had to look for the lost pages. Louis was a little helpless. The pages inside were obviously torn out deliberately, and after hundreds of years, even if this thing was still in Hogwarts, it would still be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"You can start looking for it from where this book is stored. Salazars comes to Trin's study." Rackham said, "Maybe you can find clues there."

Slytherin's study? Louis was stunned. He seemed to have never known that there was such a thing in Hogwarts Castle. Even though he had inherited three memories of Slytherin, he never knew it.

"On the third floor of the castle, light the three braziers." Rackham looked up at the clock on the wall, "You still have time now.

"

When things got to this point, Louis had to leave, but he was also curious about what was in Slytherin's study.

As the night grew darker, Louis avoided Filch and some Aurors who were patrolling the castle. Due to Voldemort's return, security at Hogwarts Castle was also strengthened at night. The Aurors who were originally only responsible for the security around the castle now Now part of it has been arranged inside the castle.

The Sirius incident three years ago made Dumbledore more vigilant and control security more carefully.

After avoiding the sight of the Aurors, Louis came to the three braziers on the third floor of the castle that Rackham said. At first glance, they seemed to be three ordinary braziers.

"Why does Slytherin always like to do this kind of decryption stuff?"

Louis complained in his heart, wondering what Slytherin himself who existed in his soul would think when he heard this sentence.

He waved his wand quickly, and the silent flame blazing spell was instantly formed, and the three braziers were ignited at the same time without any pressure.

"Then what?"

Just when Louis was confused, the surroundings suddenly shook like an earthquake, and a simple door appeared out of thin air on the wall next to him.

"Fluorescence."

It was dark behind the door. Louis used his wand to light a lamp and went in. He walked all the way down to the front hall, which was similar to a study.

"Why is there a door here?"

The entire front hall is a room made of the same stone as the castle. There is a complete stone painting hanging on the wall, which depicts a man facing a big snake. The second door does not seem to be locked. It opened with a push.

It looked like someone had climbed in first. Behind the second door was a maze set up by Slytherin, but many of the mechanisms had already been opened. Several snake-shaped mechanisms were emitting a dim light, as if they had just been opened by someone. Cracked.

Louis walked forward along several opened iron doors, turning east and west, and reached the deepest part of the maze.

"A door again? How much does Slytherin like doors?"

Lewis was a little unhappy, but the door in front of him was very different from the previous two. The pattern on that door seemed to be flowing.

There was no handle on the door, and a spell was written with magic underneath. Next to the door lay a pair of bones that had long been dried.

"Heart-breaking.

carpal bones.

"

He looked at the spell carefully, and suddenly there was a scream in his mind, and he suddenly realized the way to open the door.

This is a stone door that requires pain to open, and the Cruciatus Curse happens to be a spell that can inspire pain in people's hearts.

But now that he is alone, it is impossible for him to recite the Cruciatus Curse to himself.

Just as he was thinking this, there was a burst of staggering footsteps behind him. Louis, who had inherited the legacy of the four founders, reacted quickly. Almost in an instant, he instinctively flashed to the side, and a red light fell on the person just now. Where Louis stood.

"Who's there?"

"The little guy reacts very quickly. Being able to find this place shows that you also have certain strength."

In the shadows, an old man walked out slowly. He was holding a wand. He looked very old, even older than Dumbledore.

But there was a trace of viciousness in his eyes, and there was no light in them, as if the edges had been smoothed away by the years.

Louis could feel the hostility coming from the old man in front of him. From the sneak attack of the Cruciatus Curse from behind, this guy was definitely not a good person.

Although he can guarantee that he will not lose in the battle with the old man, and even use time magic to defeat him completely, he will definitely have to pay a huge price.

In the wizarding world, the older you get, the stronger your magic power is. This is not only a reflection of personal experience, but also a form of magic tempering. Like Dumbledore, Grindelwald and even Nick Flamel whom Louis has met, they They have extremely unfathomable power within their bodies, which is what allows them to stand at the top of the magical world.

The old man in front of him has a magic power that is no less than that of Dumbledore and Grindelwald. Since Louis' soul became transparent, he can sense the strength of the magic power in the other person's body. The feeling he brings to Louis is, It was like Dumbledore was standing in front of him.

"You should also have guessed how this door opens." The old man said slowly, "Slytherin hopes that those black magics can be passed down, so he set up such a barrier in front of his study."

Louis didn't say anything. He knew the intention of the old man's words. Someone had to bear the pain of the Cruciatus Curse to open this door, but why did it have to be him.

He also knew the Cruciatus Curse, and with his current level of magic power, he could still cast the Cruciatus Curse to make the old man in front of him endure the pain.

Two people cannot live at the same time. Louis suddenly thought of the words in Harry's prophecy ball, one of them must make a sacrifice.

The atmosphere was at a stalemate. Just when Louis was about to take action, the smell of blood fluctuated from the space on the side, and then a space wormhole seemed to be opened, and a man wearing a blood-red robe walked out of it.

"Okay, Sebastian, don't scare him. This is the hope of Hogwarts. If he is ruined, I can't explain to those four guys."
