Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 51 Voldemort and the Ancient Stele
But what Maca didn't expect was that when he returned to the shore, he saw an unexpected scene.
At this moment, a group of people were standing on the shore of Lake Riqueni.Most of them were dressed as servants of nobles, and the head was an old housekeeper wearing a black suit vest and lined with a white long-sleeved shirt.
"Miss Blois? This is..." Maca lifted the curse on her body and asked.
"The servants at home are here, I have to go back."
Wei Li was still so calm, there was still no expression on her face, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
"Sir, thank you for taking care of our lady in these days. If you have time in the future, I hope you will come to Paris as a guest at Fort Blois. I believe the host will be very happy."
The old butler spoke kindly, and did not say anything to blame Maca. Instead, he made an invitation on behalf of his master, showing the skill and calmness of the noble butler.
Maca nodded, he glanced at Wei Li, and then said: "Mr. Butler must have been working hard all the way. When I have time, I will definitely visit. Miss Blois and I are classmates of Hogwarts. , Has also become a good friend. When the next semester starts, I will ask the Dean of Slytherin College, Professor Severus Snape to continue to take care of her."
Maca’s lip service has always been good.
He knew what Wei Li lacked, and her family naturally knew it too.Although looking at Wei Li's appearance, the situation at home does not seem to be very good, but as an unknowing outsider, there is always nothing wrong with expressing kindness in this way.
Sure enough, the old butler also nodded, thanked him for his words, and then turned and walked towards Wei Li.
"...Thank you." Wei Li said softly when she was leaving, "Thank you also for your Christmas present..."
She turned and walked a few steps forward, but then turned around to add.
"...See you at school."
Maca smiled at her, and stood by the lake watching the old butler taking Velie's Apparition and leaving here.
"It looks like he is still an extraordinary pure-blooded nobleman."
He stood on the shore and pondered for a while, and then he left his happy guesses, and dived into the lake again.
I came to the underwater cave with a familiar road, and went down the slightly steep stone steps step by step, and soon came to the bottom.
There is indeed a stone gate below, which looks very old, but it is not damaged.It's just that there is nothing on the stone gate.
"Alaho Cave is open!" Maca pulled out his wand and waved it lightly at Shimen.
This was a tentative move, and Maca didn't expect any effect, but to his surprise, the door opened slowly.
"what's the situation?"
Maca looked inside curiously, only to find that it was just an empty hall.
The space inside looks very big, and the friction between the stone gate and the ground echoes in the hall, making people feel a little uneasy.
On both sides of the hall, there is a row of supporting columns with rough carvings on them.In the deepest part of the hall, stands a throne with a high seat back, which is carved out of a rock as a whole.Although there are some defects, at first glance, there is still a primitive and rough beauty.
The floor of the hall is paved with large flat stone slabs, and there are vaguely carved imprints on it, but the weathering seems to be too serious, and the specific details are not clear.
"Weathering?" Maca wondered as he watched, and was suddenly taken aback, "Speaking of which, there is indeed wind in this hall, where did it come from?"
Here is the bottom of the lake. How could wind come in?
He waited quietly for a while and found nothing unusual, so he lifted his foot and walked in gently.
"Ok?"
As soon as Maca walked to the center of the hall, she immediately felt dizzy.
He hurriedly suppressed the discomfort in his heart and shook his head, only to find that everything around him had changed!To be precise, this hall suddenly became extremely new.
The carvings on the stone pillars have become clearer, the gaps on the rock throne have disappeared, and even the signs of weathering on the stone slabs under the feet have all recovered.
"what happened?"
Maca looked around and was about to speculate, but unexpectedly, the Shimen behind him made a heavy moving sound again.He hurriedly glanced behind him, but was surprised to find that Shimen was not closing, but opening!
He immediately ran a few steps to the left, using a stone pillar as a temporary hiding place.Just as he was hiding, a footstep came in from the door.
"Obviously it's been opened just now, how could it..." Marca thought with a frown, "Could it be that the dizziness just now was because I entered the illusion? This is not real?"
It's hard to say whether it is a fantasy, but right now, it seems that someone is coming to him, and the first thing to do is to solve this matter.
But when Maca waited for a while, only to find that the man seemed to have stopped.He turned sideways and looked there, but immediately froze.
That person was also looking at him. With this probe, his sight was just right.
It was a beautiful woman with black hair and black eyes. She was dressed in an old nobleman's suit. She had a nice face, but her expression was solemn and her eyes were extremely sharp.
"...Royna?" Since it had been discovered, Maca had to walk out and habitually asked.
"My name is Rowena Milla. Young candidates, welcome to the second test." The other party's tone is flat, the content is simple and direct, and there is a faint sense of reason.
Before Maca continued to ask anything, he saw that all the slates on the floor of the hall lit up with a dazzling blue light, covering him and Rowena.
Maca only had time to glance at the slate carvings on the ground, and found that they were all regular runes arranged regularly!
"This is a huge combination of rules and runes!" His thoughts flashed, and then the whole person disappeared directly into the hall.
The light gradually dimmed, and there were no more figures in the hall, and no one knew where Maca and the "Roina" had gone.
...
Just when Maca disappeared in that ancient hall, less than ten miles away, Voldemort was in an extremely unfavorable situation.
"Um...whoop...uhhhhh-"
Under that little ancient temple, there is a huge underground palace.And right in the deepest part of the underground palace, a huge stone stele was inserted diagonally on the ground, making the ground full of cracks.
And just in front of this stone tablet, a tiny figure was standing there with her back crouched, wailing in pain.
"Lord...Master, forgive me... Uh-"
That is Quirrell!
Behind him, a phantom made of black smoke was floating in the air, with a terrifying face.Suddenly, the part of the phantom's eyes instantly turned blood red, and a brutal and bloody aura suddenly spread. The powerful power contained in it caused Quirrell to shrink directly to the ground, trembling unceasingly.
It's just that this momentum comes and goes fast, and the phantom suddenly rises into the air, turning into black smoke and rushing toward Qi Luo.
After a while, Quirrell slowly stood up, his eyes opened, and his blood rose suddenly.
"……Or not"
At this moment Quirrell spoke, or rather, it was Voldemort.
"This ancient stone stele is really weird. It takes too much strength just to maintain one's own will not be affected." He muttered to himself in a low voice, suddenly his face changed, and his red eyes faintly appeared. Angered.
"If it weren't for that kid, why would I have come to find this stone tablet to draw strength. It's a pity...this thing is better if you don't touch it."
Voldemort loved and hated this weird ancient stone tablet.I love its evil and powerful, but hate it for being too evil and too powerful.
If not necessary, Voldemort would never come here casually, all because of the bizarre ability of the stele-bewitching.
Inside this huge stone tablet, there seems to be a devil hidden.
It can confuse any creature that arrives in front of it, allowing that creature to enter into a contract with it-while it can give the opponent strength, it also brings physical and mental torture to the opponent.
If it is supported, the power will become stronger, but the creature itself will gradually sink into the enchantment of the stone tablet as the power increases.
Whether it is the gradual loss of human nature, brutal anomalies, or other changes, it will bring great harm to the creature itself and eventually lose its life, and the soul of the creature will attach itself to this stone tablet after its death. .
At this moment, Quirrell and Voldemort are one body.And Voldemort's idea is that Quirrell will naturally take over the contract instead of him, and he will draw Quirrell's power.
It's just obvious that the results have not been good so far.
"...If this is the case, try until you succeed." Voldemort narrowed his eyes as if he had made some determination.
At the same time, Voldemort turned into black smoke again, separated from Quirrell, and floated behind his back again.
"carry on!"
"No, no...Master, I really can't hold on anymore..."
"carry on!"
"..." Quirrell knelt on the ground, shaking and hesitating, after all, he didn't dare to disobey the order of the Dark Lord.
He sobbed and cut his wrist, spilling blood on the surface of the stele.With a flash of light and shadow, Quirrell began to cry again, but his voice was much weaker than before.
The terrifying and gloomy cry of howling faintly echoed in this underground palace, adding a bit of horror to this place shrouded in darkness.
Behind Quirrell, the black smoky eyes grew more red, and the dark and powerful aura expanded again, filling the dark underground chamber...
