Hogwarts: more magic than magic

Chapter 38 The end of props

Soon, the three of them hurried back to school after learning from Hagrid that he had leaked the method of controlling Lu Wei.

They didn't say a word all the way, and they didn't stop until they ran into the hall.

In the evening, the weather was gloomy, and the hall looked very cold and dark.

"We have to go to Dumbledore," Harry said, "Hagrid told a stranger how to get through Fluffy, and the man in the cloak was either Snape or Voldemort!"

Just then a familiar voice sounded behind them, "What are you three doing here?"

It was Professor McGonagall, walking hurriedly, as if busy with something.

"We want to see Dumbledore." Hermione was the first to speak when she saw that the two were hesitating for a long time.

"Want to see Mr. Principal?" McGonagall was puzzled by their request, "Why?"

Harry swallowed—what should I say?

"It's a secret." As soon as the words came out, he immediately regretted it, because Professor McGonagall was angry, and her eyebrows frowned.

"Professor Dumbledore left 10 minutes ago." She said coldly, "He received an urgent letter from the Ministry of Magic from the owl, summoned several professors, and immediately flew to London in a hurry."

"He's gone? And how many professors?" Harry said anxiously, "At this time?"

"It happened suddenly! You have to know that he is usually required to rush to solve emergencies!"

They gave a quick account of their findings.

But Professor McGonagall didn't believe all the speculation they described about Snape stealing the Philosopher's Stone, and sternly drove them back to the common room.

But they didn't want to give up at this point, so the three-person team discussed and put on the invisibility cloak shortly after the lights were turned off at night, and went to the door where the Philosopher's Stone was hidden.

With the creaking sound of the door opening, the three of them finally got away from Filch and the troublemaker without any risk.

When they closed the door, following the sound, they immediately found the golden harp playing music.

"What's that?" Hermione asked quietly.

"Looks like a harp," said Ron. "Snape must have left it."

At this time, something bad happened. The mermaid who was singing softly on the golden harp seemed to be frightened, and immediately stopped singing, hugged the harp and remained motionless, and the harp also stopped playing.

The three of them hadn't realized what the stopped harp meant. Just as they were discussing what to do, six huge eyes shimmering in the darkness lit up.

A low whirring sound immediately sounded in their ears, and the giant beast expressed its unwelcome to them from its throat.Several strings of sticky saliva flowed from the mouth of the giant beast that slowly got up, and one of them just landed on Ron's head.

"It's disgusting!"

"Look, it's a door!" The sharp-eyed Hermione saw the trapdoor hidden under Lu Wei.

On the other side, Keiz led Kuhn through the dark secret passage to a wide underground space.

This place seems to be the hall of an underground palace, but the arches leading to other spaces around it are blocked by black flames, making it impossible to see the scene behind.

It was empty and dusty, and the black flames provided some gleam, but also the heat, which made it very stuffy, which made Keiz uncomfortable.

In the center of the hall, there is a huge mirror.

This is a very imposing mirror, reaching to the ceiling, in a gorgeous gold frame, supported by two claw-shaped feet.The top is engraved with a line of words: Erisstra ahruait Ubi Kafruait en Voges.

Kuhn scanned the entire hall, but did not find anything that looked like the Philosopher's Stone. He pressed his wand against Chizz's back forcefully, "Little brat, are you kidding me? Where is that thing?"

"Be safe, stay safe, stay safe!" Chiz waved his hand, raised his right hand and pointed to the mirror in the middle, "Have you heard of it? This is the Mirror of Erised, it can make your wishes come true!"

"I know, of course I know this mirror! But everything you see in the mirror is fake, fake, you know?"

"So even you know that what's inside is fake," Keiz chuckled jokingly, "who would have thought that the real Philosopher's Stone was hidden inside?"

The two of them came to the Mirror of Erised and looked at it.

Kuhn's complexion was reflected by the black flames around him. "Tell me, how do you get it? I've seen it in the mirror, and I'm holding it in the palm of my hand."

"Sorry sir, I don't know!" Chiz waved his hands innocently, "After all, I'm not a god, am I? It's impossible to know everything, and even hiding the Philosopher's Stone in the mirror came from a professor who participated in the arrangement."

At this time, Kuhn seemed to see something he liked in the mirror, and he didn't hear his words. He smiled foolishly for a while, and yelled happily for a while.

But the strong mental power still made him wake up quickly, and he began to repeatedly try to take out the magic stone, put it from his left hand to his right hand, and put it from his pocket into his mouth.

What Qiz on the side saw was that this man was stupid, like a clown in a circus performing pantomime, putting a ball of air in his pocket with his left hand and his right hand, and then put it in his mouth strangely.

"Hehe!" Seeing such a happy scene, Qiz couldn't help laughing out loud, which caught Kuhn's attention.

He gave up trying, turned his head, and faced Chiz, "You must know how to get it out, right? You must!"

Shouting hysterically, he rushed to Chiz, grabbed his neck, and lifted him high.Keiz grasped his iron-like right hand with both hands, trying to ensure that he could breathe smoothly.

At this moment, something happened to the arch facing the Mirror of Erised.

A determined little figure suddenly appeared there, making a surprised sound.

"Kiz!"

"Our savior is finally here!" Hearing the familiar voice, Qizi smiled unconsciously, "It's really time, just in time to sell a wave in front of the lead actor!"

Kuhn also immediately spotted the small figure, turned around, saw his face clearly, and smiled, "Look who is here, isn't this the famous Mr. Potter who wrote me a report letter at noon?"

"Let me guess, what are you doing here? It's also because of the Philosopher's Stone, isn't it?"

Harry had just recovered from the shock of going through the Black Flame, and immediately realized that there were already two people in there - not Snape, not even Voldemort.A tall figure was holding a small figure in the air, it was Kuhn and Keiz!

"You can come here, so you should know how to get the Philosopher's Stone out of the mirror, right?" Kuhn turned his mind and stared at Harry who had just entered.

"You!" Harry gasped in astonishment.

Kuhn smiled, now he had a new idea.

"It's me," he said calmly. "I was thinking just now that I'm leaving here soon. It seems that this mission will not be able to reach you, Potter."

"But I thought—Snape—"

"Snape?" Kuhn laughed. "Snape doesn't look like a nice guy, but he's just a wretch to laugh at!"

Harry murmured in disbelief, "It can't be true, it can't be."

There was a little smile on Kuwin's face, and he raised his wand with the other hand, pointed at Keez's head, and threatened Harry, "Go and get me that rock, I know that since you can come here, you must know what it is and how to get it!"

"Go and get it to me!"

Now Harry really panicked, he didn't want his friend to be hurt, and in the panic, he even forgot that this stone could revive a horrible existence.

Harry's mind was spinning rapidly, and now he just wanted to save Keez as soon as possible.

But I have no idea how to get the Philosopher's Stone from the mirror I've seen once!

Looking at the dim light on the tip of the stick, he had no choice but to slowly come to the mirror,
With a flick of Kuhn's wand, the rope fell onto Harry and wrapped around his neck.

He mustered up the courage to walk over!

When he saw himself in the mirror, he was pale and frightened at first, but after a while, he smiled.Harry in the mirror reached into his pocket, took out a bright red stone, blinked, and put the stone back into his pocket—at this moment, Harry felt that something heavy had really fallen into his pocket.

It's unbelievable - he actually got the Philosopher's Stone just like that.

"How?" Kuhn asked impatiently. "Did you see that stone? Can you take it out?"

"Yes, sir, I think I saw it, but I can't promise to take it out, can you put Keiz down first?" Harry's hands trembled slightly.

When Kuhn heard his words, his face brightened, and he lifted the Qiz in his hand high, and threw it to the pillar in the distance.After Keez hit the pillar and fell to the ground, he added a sleeping spell, "Don't worry, Mr. Potter, he's fine. I acted very carefully. He just fell asleep temporarily!"

Harry watched his movements, swallowed hard, and then thought quickly with difficulty, "Sir, I seem to be able to see that stone, but I may not be able to take it out. You have to make sure you don't hurt me and my classmates again."

Harry hesitated in his heart. This thing might bring Voldemort back, but compared with it, his friend's life was more important.

"Don't talk nonsense, take it out quickly, after I get the Philosopher's Stone, I will spare your lives, I keep my word!" Kuhn yelled at Harry, grinning heavily and panting heavily.

Then he flicked his wand and shot a spell in the direction where Chiz fell, hitting the wall, blasting a big hole in the earth and stone on the wall, "Take it out quickly, or you will all die!"

Startled by his sudden movement, Harry subconsciously took out his hand from his trouser pocket, and dropped the Philosopher's Stone on the ground.

Seeing the stone that suddenly fell out, Kuhn was overjoyed. He hurried over to take the stone in his hand, looked at it carefully, and started crying hysterically, "It's him, it's him, I finally got it! My master, you will see the light of day again soon!"

"Your appearance is really a surprise. Even if I don't get the Philosopher's Stone, it would be a great achievement for me to bring you back!" After venting, he gradually calmed down.

Grabbing the rope on Harry's body, dragging him to the front, pinching his chin, he began to look carefully, and used his wand to part Harry's bangs.Use the tip of the wand to carefully draw the scar on Harry's forehead, "It's you! You caused us to lose our great master, and you will be punished accordingly. After that master returns, I will dedicate your life to him!"

"As for this Mr. Keez, he will be the scapegoat. He stole the Philosopher's Stone hidden here by Dumbledore and pushed you into the flames. Do you think this is a good reason? My dear Mr. Savior!" He raised his wand before Harry could rebuke him angrily, and cast a sleeping spell on him, causing him to fall into a deep sleep.

Just when he was about to lift Harry on his shoulders and take him away.

A magic spell flew quickly from behind, interrupting his movements, forcing him to dodge to the side, and at the same time cast a magic spell behind him.

It's a pity that it didn't hit, and then there was a series of applause from that direction, "As expected of the investigator sent by the Ministry of Magic, the reaction speed of ordinary people is really not comparable to that of ordinary people! They can even fight back!"

"You're fine!" Kuhn, who turned around after rolling on the ground, looked at Qiz standing there in surprise. "I clearly"

"Except your weapons!"

"Smashed to pieces!"

"Thunderbolt explosion!"

But a series of sudden spells interrupted him, and he had to raise his wand and deal with it carefully.

"What a pity! Mr. Kuhn, congratulations on getting what you wanted, but unfortunately, the moment you stepped into Hogwarts, it seemed that Dumbledore had reserved a place for you in Azkaban."

Keiz took the wand seized by the dismemberer, and cast a series of spells, beating Kun so hard that he hid behind the pillar and dared not show his face.

Just as he stopped for a while, a blasting spell was shot from behind the pillar, hitting Chiz, who couldn't dodge in time, and blasting him far away.

"A bunch of stinky rats in the gutter, jumping up and down as soon as you get a chance!" Qiz quickly got up from the ground. Fortunately, the armor body he had secretly applied just now and the knight aura that had been attached to his body blocked all the damage for him.His spells shot towards the pillars more quickly and intensively, and the blasting spells quickly devoured the thick stone pillars one by one.

At the same time, he continued to taunt while casting spells, "Can't you Death Eaters who have been brainwashed by black magic not see it? This is a trap that Dumbledore set up for you, first to trap your boss to death, and then to trap you bloody bastards?"

Although he didn't understand what Erwuzi meant, Qiz's ridicule made him furious. His anger overcame his reason, and the moment he jumped out,

"Avada Kedavra!"

A green spell flew over and almost hit Kuhn in the head.

"The Unforgivable Curse? How do you know black magic?" He recognized the origin of the magic.

After not getting a response for a long time, Kuhn, who retracted back behind the pillar, was a little puzzled. He was about to check again when he suddenly felt a gust of wind behind him.

An attack that made him feel completely irresistible hit him and slapped him heavily on the pillar. The magic defense on his body flickered slightly before being disintegrated.

"Bang!!!" He instantly broke the stone pillar that had been opened by the blasting curse, and fell to the steps of the hall in a bloody mess.

The mechanical heart shut down automatically, and Qiz immediately exited the form of the Obscure. Looking at the blood man on the ground, he sighed in his heart, "The power is great, but the preparation time is too long, and the casting process is too complicated!"

He found a cleaner platform for the unconscious Harry to put down.

I went up to confirm Kuhn's situation. He didn't die immediately, but the situation was a bit miserable. One hand and two legs were gone, and he was covered in blood.

Keiz cautiously kicked away the wand in his hand, then gave him a healing spell to stop the bleeding, added two sleeping spells to him, bound him tightly with the rope, opened his hand that was blown away, retrieved the Philosopher's Stone, held it in the palm of his hand and communicated with the simulator.
