Chapter 270 The Third Horcrux: Ravenclaw's Diadem
Chapter 270 The Third Horcrux - Ravenclaw's Diadem
Although he had seen similar scenes in movies and games, Zhang Xiao still couldn't help but marvel at the sight before him.
He stood in a huge house, with no end in sight.
There were windows on the walls, and the beams of light cast by the high windows looked like a city with high walls.
It was made up of items lost from Hogwarts for who knows how many years.
The streets were filled with broken furniture that was about to fall apart. They might have been stuffed here to hide evidence of accidental magic, or hidden by the house elves who maintained the dignity of the castle.
There were thousands of books here, undoubtedly banned, scribbled, or stolen;
There were winged slingshots and fanged flying saucers, some of which were still hovering feebly above the piles of forbidden objects;
Some broken bottles contained solidified potions;
There were hats, jewelry, cloaks, and things that looked like dragon eggshells;
Several corked bottles were still flashing evil lights;
There were also several rusty swords and a bloodstained axe.
This is a treasure!
Zhang Xiao took a breath. There was no doubt that this was a treasure. No one knew how many valuable things were in it, but it was undeniable that there were definitely good things in it.
It seemed that Tom had hidden the Horcrux here. When he found Slytherin's research notes, he would take the crown by the way.
How could he not be interested in the crown that was said to enhance wisdom?
As long as it could increase learning efficiency a little bit, it would be good.
Then he picked up a few books. Because of the long time, the strange human face in the book had become a little dull. It looked at Zhang Xiao, opened and closed its mouth, and seemed to want to say something, but no sound came out.
It was probably tempting words like "open your own book".
Then he stuffed the book back and began to think about how to find the target.
This place is too big, as big as two football fields.
After thinking about it, he took out a bright red belt from the Qiankun bag. I don't know what material this belt is made of. It has a faint luster and is as red as fire.
This is the first time I returned to Longhu Mountain. The uncles gave me a gift. I can fly with it by passing it through my armpits, but the speed is relatively slow, and the turning is not so agile.
It is suitable for this kind of slow search.
Wrapping the belt clumsily around his body, Zhang Xiao only felt his body lighten, and with a slight force on his toes, the whole person floated towards the sky.
Slowly and leisurely, full of fairy spirit - but the speed is indeed a bit slow, a little faster than Professor Flitwick's children's version of Xiangyun.
Zhang Xiao floated above the treasure pile, looking around with his head down.
Well. Not far from the troll specimen, there was a very ugly bust of an old wizard. This was a mark made by Tom.
He walked around a pile of high debris, with an armchair on top. He didn't know who would sit on it.
After walking around for a while, he suddenly saw a troll specimen.
He immediately descended in height, looked at the ugly specimen, looked around, turned to the left, and finally stopped in front of a large cabinet with bubbling on the surface, as if it had been splashed with strong acid.
Next to the cabinet was a broken bust of an ugly old wizard.
Zhang Xiao's heart suddenly jumped, because next to the bust, a crown that looked rusty and covered with dust was lying quietly on a shelf, and next to it was a gray old wig.
It can't be such a coincidence
Some vague memories suddenly came to mind, as if this was the place where Harry hid books in the original book.
He opened the Dharma Eye directly, and sure enough, the crown changed immediately. Thick black air entangled it, and an illusory figure floated above the crown with a dull look.
If anyone wears this crown and wants to increase his wisdom, he will definitely receive a big surprise prepared by Voldemort.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xiao took out another sealed box and threw the crown into it, thus solving another Horcrux.
Now all that was left was the golden cup and the ring, as well as Nagini, the last Horcrux that Harry and Voldemort had not yet separated.
Horcrux (3/7)!
He looked around at the things around him, a dirty cabinet, the cabinet door creaking because of the action of taking things just now.
Zhang Xiao stood a little further away, pointed his finger at the cabinet door in the air, made a gesture of pulling back, and the cabinet door opened automatically.
There was a cage hidden inside, and the thing in the cage had long been dead, and from the skeleton it looked like it had five legs.
On the pile of debris next to it, there was a crate, and underneath this wooden box was a worn-out suitcase.
This was the thing that hid Slytherin's research notes.
But it couldn't be opened yet, because Tom cast a curse on it.
After moving the box to a slightly wider place with the wand, Zhang Xiao stretched it out from a distance and tied a thin fishing line to the lock.
After estimating that it was safe enough, he pulled the lock hard, and the suitcase suddenly opened by itself, and a black mist flowed out like liquid instantly.
A pile of debris about half a meter high was submerged in it, and it only took a moment. This pile of debris that had existed for who knows how many years quickly decayed and decomposed, leaving only a pool of ashes in the end.
Zhang Xiao smacked his lips and took a breath as if he had a toothache. Tom was really cruel. The range of the black fog was about half a basketball court. If it was used in a crowded place, it would be easy to kill dozens of people.
The black fog lasted for a while and slowly dissipated, but Zhang Xiao had no intention of going forward. Instead, he tapped his ears with his wand.
Another application of "closing ears and plugging hearing" is mainly to block one's hearing.
Not long after the black fog disappeared, the suitcase suddenly made an extremely piercing scream, which was filled with endless resentment and pain.
The sound of death!
But Zhang Xiao couldn't hear it. He stood there leisurely, waiting for the waves of sound to pass.
Or maybe Voldemort was really cunning before he pulled it. He set up three layers of this kind of thing!
After a lot of tossing, the box finally stopped moving.
Zhang Xiao then slowly stepped forward, and with a light flick of the wand, the lid of the suitcase was directly separated.
Revealing the rolls of parchment inside, and some pieces of paper scattered at the bottom, the number is not large.
He put on the dragon leather gloves skillfully, just in case, the necessary safety measures should be taken.
Until the parchment was in his hand, Zhang Xiao's eyes showed a hint of eagerness.
Slytherin's research notes, finally in hand!
