Chapter 30 Three Treasures
In Xielin's bedroom, Xielin laid out three items in front of him on the bed.
The first thing he studied was the suitcase. Xielin carefully opened the suitcase with his wand, but found that it was no different from an ordinary Muggle suitcase. It was empty and there was no trace of any magic inside.
After thinking for a while, Xielin tapped the suitcase with his wand and injected a little magic into it. Sure enough, the suitcase began to vibrate slightly, and a brass turntable appeared on the suitcase, with a small sign on it that said "Muggle Mode".
Xielin twisted the turntable, and the small sign was put into the turntable with a whoosh. Xielin opened the suitcase again, and just as Xielin leaned forward slightly to see the inside of the suitcase clearly, a strong suction force pulled Xielin into the suitcase without rejection.
In the suitcase, there is a vast and boundless small world. Looking into the distance, you can see endless mountains. In front of the mountains, there is a calm and clear light green lake like a mirror. On the edge of the lake stands a large tall and deep forest. Schelling is in a sea of colorful flowers. The middle of the sea of flowers is divided into two halves by a pedestrian path. Schelling walked along the path to the end of the path, where there is a simple cabin.
Schelling entered the cabin, which is a well-equipped laboratory. There is a long desk filled with various precision instruments. There are also a few scattered pages of parchment on the desk to explain the identity of the original owner of the suitcase.
Yes, this is the suitcase of Newt Scamander, the protagonist in the movie "Fantastic Creatures". When Scamander was young, he was a scholar studying magical animals. He traveled around the world with this suitcase and helped and saved all the magical creatures he met on the journey. The suitcase has been cast with an unprecedented traceless extension spell, and the space inside is large enough to accommodate a safari park in the Muggle world.
However, this huge space is only the most insignificant feature of this suitcase.
The real magic of the suitcase is that it uses the principles of alchemy to successfully create natural elements such as air, moisture, temperature, etc. in the space inside, and can maintain its own ecological cycle and be compatible with various different landforms. Different areas in the suitcase are engraved with different meteorological spells to simulate the habitats of different creatures. All known magical creatures in the magic world can find a suitable living environment here.
Scamander was a student of Hufflepuff in Hogwarts. In the fourth grade, he was expelled from school for helping his crush Leta Lestrange to take the blame. At that time, he took the suitcase belonging to the school to embark on his own adventure. It was not until many years later, when he reached retirement age and untied his knot in Hogwarts, that he asked his son to return the suitcase to the school. But he didn't expect that his son would return it by hiding it in the Room of Requirement. Thanks to this, Schelling was able to obtain this magical box.
This suitcase is of infinite use to Schelling. He can build and train his own army of magical creatures here. Just imagine how exciting it would be to have an army of dragons and thunderbirds (Selling has forgotten the difficulty of taming five-star creatures). Look at Voldemort, didn't he also build a dark creature army composed of eight-eyed spiders and dementors?
In addition, the space in the suitcase can also be used as a secret base for building one's own forces. Various secret experiments and research can also be carried out in the cabin, and even forbidden spells can be practiced.
As for the Room of Requirement? Forget it. Let's not talk about the possibility of running into the Dumbledore Army formed by Harry in the future. Even that useless Professor Trelawney and the house elves know about this place. Can it still be called a "secret base"? The Room of Requirement should be left to Harry and his scouts.
After a series of thoughts flowed through Xie Lin's mind, he returned to the room from the suitcase and began to study the second magic item.
This is a pure silver dagger, with difficult and incomprehensible ancient runes engraved on both sides of the dagger. These ancient runes are linked together with strange patterns to form a miniature magic circle. Xie Lin happened to be good at deciphering ancient magic words, and it took him several hours to successfully decipher the magic circle.
One side of the dagger is engraved with the ancient magic "Indestructible Spell". Unlike the modern magic spell of armor-breaking spell, the Indestructible Spell can attach physical properties to weapons that ignore all physical defenses. That is to say, once Xie Lin activates this magic circle with magic power, even the toughest dragon skin and diamond can be easily pierced. The other side of the dagger is the more evil "Corruption Soul Erosion Spell", which is a curse magic that can directly harm the soul.
Xie Ling was surprised and delighted by this discovery. This dagger came at the right time. One side of this dagger allowed him to pierce the snake skin of the basilisk, and the other side could be used to destroy Voldemort's Horcrux. He was speechless about his extraordinary luck. Could it be that he was the lucky child surrounded by the protagonist's halo in this plane world?
The third item, Ravenclaw's crown, contained Voldemort's soul fragments. Xie Ling believed that his current strength was not enough to face the various back-up plans that Voldemort might leave. He was cautious and did not think that this was a good time to study it. He had to put it aside for now and take it out for research when he was stronger in the future.
[Scamander's suitcase was obtained! ]
[Pure silver dagger was obtained! ]
[The crown of Ravenclaw is obtained! 】
After completing the adventure in the Room of Requirement, Xie Lin began to think about the next step. It seemed that his strength was enough to venture into the Forbidden Forest. The problem is that his knowledge of the Forbidden Forest is limited to what he has read in the original book. He needs more information, and even a map of the Forbidden Forest, in order to plan an adventurous route.
The person who knows the most about the Forbidden Forest is undoubtedly the gamekeeper Hagrid. Unfortunately, in this regard, unlike Harry and others, he had the advantage of having a close friendship with Hagrid. Even as a Slytherin of Malfoy descent, he estimated that it would be difficult for him to win Hagrid's favor, let alone any help.
As for stealing the map... Xie Lin is very dissatisfied with this. According to the description in the original work, this big boss does not look like a person who can plan routes and draw maps. He is more likely to rely on experience and intuition alone to find out what belongs to him. His own route to the Forbidden Forest.
The adventure plan in the Forbidden Forest can be put on hold for the time being. The Christmas holiday is coming soon anyway, and the family is very uneasy this year - Arthur Weasley has searched the Malfoy family twice since the beginning of the school year, and his parents have already written a letter to confess their relationship with Draco. Spend the Christmas holidays at Hogwarts.
A few days later, the news appeared on the student notice board in the common room that Hogwarts would be hosting a dueling club on December 17th.
This explosive news aroused great interest among the students. They rushed to tell each other and even enthusiastically guessed the true identity of the initiator. Most people guessed that it was Professor Flitwick or Principal Dumbledore. Only Xie Lin, who was familiar with the plot, curled his lips, innocent young people, you will be so disappointed when the time comes, because the real initiator is the superficial good-for-nothing Lockhart.
Although Schelling disliked Lockhart as the initiator, he was still very interested in the Duel Club. He decided to participate in it that day, hoping to find a combat partner with a similar level for him to practice with.
At eight o'clock on Wednesday evening, the students returned to the common room after dinner and took a short break before hurrying back to the auditorium. The long dining table disappeared, and a gilded stage appeared along one wall, lit by hundreds of candles floating above. Everyone was crowded together, everyone holding their own wands, their faces full of excitement, chattering and looking forward to Dumbledore's appearance.
Lockhart walked onto the stage, dazzling in a purple robe.
The lively atmosphere in the auditorium suddenly stagnated, and the chatter that had originally been heard completely disappeared. Everyone saw that the person appearing next to Lockhart was none other than Snape with a gloomy face, still wearing his usual black clothes.
The students who originally expected to learn some real skills were disappointed to find that the duel club had become a joke.
Lockhart originally planned to show everyone how to duel, but he chose the wrong opponent. Snape was definitely not the little wizard who was at his mercy in class.
After Lockhart counted down three times, Snape waved his wand slightly, and a dazzling red light flashed in front of everyone. Lockhart was knocked off his feet and flew backwards off the stage, crashing into the wall before sliding down and curling up on the floor.
Amid the girls' screams, Lockhart staggered to his feet, his hat falling off and his wavy curly hair standing on end.
He staggered back onto the stage and said: "I think you all saw that this was a disarming spell, and as you can see I lost my wand. Yes, Professor Snape , it's a great idea to show them this move, but don't mind what I say, your intention of doing this just now is too obvious, I don't think I have to try hard to stop you. , in order to increase their knowledge, you might as well let them take a look...""
Noticing the murderous look on Snape's face, Lockhart said hurriedly, "This is the end of the demonstration. Now I will come among you and divide you into groups of two. Professor Snape, if you are willing to help me..."
They walked through the crowd and paired people up. I don't know if it was out of malice, but Snape arranged Draco and Harry into a group, Sherrin and Ron into a group, Hermione and Millicent Burst, a thick and burly girl from Slytherin. Group……
Lockhart had just finished shouting three two one, when a green smoke filled the air over the entire venue. Harry and Draco were hit by each other's curses. Draco was rolling on the ground with laughter, and Harry was uncontrollable. They danced a strange dance until Snape walked over to untie them; Neville and Justin both lay on the floor, panting; Hermione and Millicent were still moving, Millicent clamped Hermione's Head, Hermione gave a small cry of pain, both of their wands forgotten on the floor.
As for Schelling? Ron had just raised his wand, and before he even uttered a single word of the incantation, Xie Lin easily took away Ron's wand. At this time, Ron didn't even react, and he stayed there at a loss. Xie Lin curled his lips, his opponent was too good and there was no challenge at all.
Snape glimpsed from afar, showing a thoughtful expression.
The collection has exceeded 200, I am so touched!
