Falling, falling silently.

As if entering an endless abyss, Louis closed his eyes and allowed his body to fall freely.

At the bottom of the bottomless pyramid, he felt only loneliness. Then, after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly stopped just one meter above the ground.

Immediately, he landed slowly.

The magic power that exists inside the pyramid may hurt people invisible, but may also help people.

Lewis slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a space so dark that he couldn't look directly.

"Lumos!"

Louis was about to light the wand, but after a while, the light was instantly swallowed up by the darkness, and it only shone brightly before hastily ending its appearance.

Louis condensed slightly. He tried to use the flashing spell again, but the result was still the same.

This space actually swallows light.

"Don't waste your efforts, it's useless."

An old voice came from behind. Louis turned his head warily and shook his wand towards the source of the sound, but made no sound.

"Hehe, the little guy is quite vigilant. But, do you really think you will be my opponent?"

It is impossible to identify the direction of the opponent in the darkness. What you need to rely on most at this time is your own hearing, so once someone makes a sound, your position is exposed.

Seeing that Louis still didn't respond, the voice snorted again, and then several branches flew over from Louis' right.

"If you believe me, just grab a few of these." The voice became lazy.

Lewis still didn't take action. He didn't know whether the voice was friend or foe.

"You still don't believe me, okay, then you can fend for yourself here, I don't care." The voice gradually became silent, and he was about to take back a few branches.

Lewis grabbed a few branches, and with a "swish", his whole body was caught and flew over.

After flying in the darkness for nearly ten minutes, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

The darkness gradually dissipated, and the scene in front of Louis changed instantly, with a bang and sliding on the ground.

It took about ten seconds for his vision to slowly recover. Suddenly, he entered a bright space from darkness, and a strong sense of stimulation hit his eyeballs.

"Oh? You dare to break into the pyramid at such a young age?"

Lewis stood up with his hands on the ground, and he finally saw the appearance of the voice clearly.

He was an old man, but he looked full of energy, his vicissitudes of eyes were full of traces of time, and his capable white hair seemed to have gone through thousands of layers of training.

"Who are you?"

Louis was surprised by the old man who suddenly appeared in the pyramid. There were actually living people in the pharaoh's tomb.

"Who am I? It's been so long and I almost forgot."

The old man raised his head, as if his thoughts were lost in memories, but he couldn't think of anything. His eyes looked slightly painful.

"All I remember is that I am the Sphinx's servant."

Lewis saw a red mark slowly flashing on the old man's head. The dazzling red mark seemed to control the old man's thoughts.

"ah!"

The old man had a splitting headache, and a strong stinging sensation engulfed his brain. The extreme pain caused his whole body to twitch.

Lewis frowned, but before he could react, the old man changed in vain.

Woohoo~

A black mist-like wind formed in the air, the old man's figure twisted, and the black substance seemed to burst out from his body.

Depend on!

Lewis couldn't help but curse. The substance in front of him was what made most wizards change their minds, let alone just a student.

Obscurus, a dark magical substance created by extreme circumstances.

Because the wizards it parasitizes usually experienced some kind of spiritual trauma as children, and because the Obscurus is too powerful, even the Obscurial as the host cannot fully control it.

Before he had time to think about it, the Obscurus had already aimed at the target and rushed down. Louis only had time to cast an iron armor spell to protect himself, and he was instantly attacked by the Obscurus.

The speed of that thing was beyond Louis' imagination.

"Old man, wake up!" Against the great pressure of Obscurus, Louis shouted at the black fog.

However, the momentum of the Obscurus did not diminish, and it retreated a little and blew its horn again to attack.

Louis' iron armor spell was not enough to withstand the attack of Obscurus. The armor protection was broken layer by layer, and Obscurus completely enveloped Louis.

The powerful force was wreaking havoc around his body, and he seemed helpless in the face of Mogu Ran.

A mouthful of blood came out of his mouth, and Louis was silently thrown to the ground. The black substance still refused to give up, turned into a sharp sword, and went directly towards Louis' chest.

Louis, whose clothes were torn to pieces, looked particularly embarrassed, his eyes staring at the angry silence from beginning to end.

At this moment, the wand in his hand actually moved on its own without being controlled by Louis. The whole wand flashed a green light, and a spell that even Louis had never seen struck the Obscurus. .

Silently let out a howl, then gradually shrank into a small black ball, and then exploded in all directions with a bang.

Lewis saw that the old man was breathing heavily, his eyes gradually returned to clarity, and the red mark on his head slowly disappeared.

Although this does not mean that he has escaped the control of the so-called Sphinx, at least he will not lose control again for a while.

Louis poured a bottle of the fountain of life into his mouth, and the magic potion was slowly repairing the wounds in his body.

"Are you the Obscurus?"

The old man was still confused. He didn't know what Louis meant by being silent, so he could only shake his head.

"Then can you tell me what the Sphinx is in your mouth?"

"The Sphinx, that is a terrible creature, but he is noble and powerful."

"In the eyes of Muggles, he is just a creature that exists in mythology, but in the wizarding world, the Sphinx is an ancient demon species that all wizards fear."

The old man pointed to the ground, "It exists here, guarding the Pharaoh's treasure."

With a human face and an animal body, this is the impression of the Sphinx in Louis' mind.

As for the old man, it is possible that he also came to look for Mourinho's treasure, but was conquered by the power of the Sphinx and was forced to suffer the control and sealed memory.

"I think that since you are the servant of the Sphinx, you should know where he is, so I am ready to accept his challenge. Take me there."

The old man squinted his eyes. He looked at Lewis and couldn't help but smile with relief:

"You are the most arrogant child I have ever seen, but you are also the first person in decades to be able to break into the dark latitudes by your own strength."

"Perhaps you can really conquer the Sphinx."
