Chapter 37 The End of the Chamber of Secrets
On May 5th, Professor Sprout announced at breakfast time that the mandrakes were finally ready to be harvested, and all petrified victims could be healed that night.
Schelling, who was sitting in the corner of the dining table, silently observed the long Gryffindor table, and found that Ginny approached Harry hesitantly, and was about to muster up the courage to tell the truth, but was interrupted by Percy Weasley. Ginny fled in a hurry, and Schelling followed quietly without disturbing anyone.
With the previous tracking experience, Xie Lin released the invisible phantom spell on himself with ease, and followed Ginny to the girls' bathroom at the end of the third floor. After seeing Ginny hesitated for a long time, she still opened the diary, and immediately A puff of smoke rose from the book, slowly turning into a human form.
Although it looked blurry, Schelling was certain that it was the remnant of a young Tom Riddle.
Ginny cried bitterly and accused Tom of summoning the basilisk to hurt people, and tried to cast a completely ineffective spell on Tom's remnant soul. Then Tom sneered and forcibly attached to Ginny who was struggling desperately. Just when Tom was about to control Ginny to write on the stone wall outside according to the original plot, he suddenly felt an inexplicable vigilance, looked in the direction of Schelling, raised his wand and shouted: "Who is there!"
Obviously Tom didn't see through Schelling's invisibility magic, but his keen intuition could still detect something wrong.The opponent was Voldemort when he was young, and Schelling dared not underestimate the enemy against him. Taking advantage of his invisibility, Schelling shot first, using the silent spellcasting technique combined with the instant double-strike technique, continuously cast a disarming spell and a repelling spell, and the two spells quickly shot at Tom one after the other.
What a Tom, he was able to manipulate Ginny's body to avoid the Disarming Curse at such a close distance, and when he was trying to dodge the Repelling Curse, he was accidentally knocked into the air by the sudden turn of the Repelling Curse.
Xie Lin took out the Yexing cloak from his pocket and put it on, clenched his wand tightly in his hand, and rushed into the entrance of the secret room.
Xie Lin followed the water pipe zigzagging, twisting and turning, all the way down with a very steep slope, before reaching the faintly bright water pipe exit, Xie Lin cast a shock-absorbing spell on himself, leaped, and stood straight on the wet ground.
There was a dark stone tunnel in front of him, big enough for a person to stand in, and Tom had disappeared.
Schelling cast a Luminous Charm and chased him down the tunnel.At the end of the tunnel is a long, dimly lit room. There are many thick stone pillars carved with various coiled and entangled serpents, towering and supporting the ceiling that melts in the high darkness, casting long and treacherous shadows on the room filled with mystery.
Schelling half-raised his wand, and walked slowly between the stone pillars coiled by the giant snake without saying a word.
When he reached his position between the last pair of stone pillars, there loomed before him a huge statue as tall as the room itself, clinging to the darkened wall behind.The slightly greenish stone gave it an eerie aura.
He tilted his neck back to see the statue's face—a decrepit, monkey-like face, with a long, sparse beard that trailed almost to the hem of the stone-carved wizard's robes, and two large feet that stood firmly on the ground. Stand firmly on the smooth floor of the room.Between the statue's feet lay face down the tiny figure of Ginny Weasley.
Tom's indistinct remnant soul leaned on the nearest stone pillar, met the eyes of Schelling who was walking towards him, and looked at each other warily, "I thought everything I did to control this silly girl was secret. Thinking of being discovered by someone a long time ago, who are you? Did Dumbledore send you here?"
Schelling sneered, "I know who you are, Tom, Dumbledore is not the only one who can deal with you!"
Tom showed a curious expression, "Do you really know who I am?"
Schelling said contemptuously: "Aren't you the remnant soul left by Voldemort when he was young to create Horcruxes by killing people?"
What?Voldemort?kill?Horcrux?
Tom has seen information about Schelling in Ginny's memory - No. 1 in academic performance, published articles in various academic journals, and was regarded as a favorite student by two professors... he is not inferior to himself back then, but he is only a second-year student. Tom never thought that his biggest secret would be seen through by the little wizard in front of him, showing an expression of disbelief. Schelling has no bad habit of talking nonsense to the enemy.
Schelling knew that the spell he knew was ineffective against Tom in the remnant state. At this moment, he summoned the diary with a summoning spell at lightning speed, and at the same time slipped the sterling silver dagger that had been hidden in the cuff pocket into the other hand. In that one-thousandth of a second, Schelling resolutely injected magic power into the dagger, and pierced the diary in one stroke!
Tom let out a terrible, long-lasting, ear-piercing scream, twisted, struggled, and kept flailing his arms, staring hatefully at Schelling's last hissing Parseltongue before dissipating in smoke.
Schelling did not let down his vigilance. Tom's last snark was most likely a spell to summon the basilisk.
Sure enough, the huge stone face of Slytherin moved, and its mouth opened, growing wider and wider until it formed a huge black hole.The basilisk slowly slid out of the statue. It was green all over and glowed with the unique radiance of poisonous snakes. Its body was as thick as the trunk of an oak tree, and its upper half stretched high into the air.
Since the first day of school, Schelling had been pondering tactics and spells for dealing with the basilisk.At this moment, although he was nervous, he was not very afraid.Just as the basilisk slipped out of the statue, Schelling had seized this fleeting opportunity to release his long-prepared Flashing Curse!
The Flash Curse was inspired by the flash bombs in the Muggle world, and it took him a lot of thought to research it.
The basilisk was blinded by the strong light, and Xie Lin seized this opportunity to use the next combo in the tactic-the Eye Sickness Curse!Schelling quickly cast spells in one flash and two shots. The shooting accuracy he had practiced since he was 4 years old did not disappoint him. Even though the basilisk was constantly swinging its huge body from side to side, the two eye sickness spells accurately hit the basilisk's eyes, blinding the basilisk and successfully disarming the basilisk's most threatening weapon.
The blind basilisk did not lose its target because of this. The basilisk's tongue has an extremely keen sense of smell, and there are two thermal pits between the eyes and nostrils that can sense thermal infrared rays. It has lost its eyes and killing ability, and it keeps rampaging. Its tail sweeps around in a wide range, intending to crush Schelling with its huge physical advantage.
Schelling released another spell of his own creation - the Sonic Boom Curse. Like the previous Flash Curse, this Sonic Boom Curse was also inspired by the sonic bombs in the Muggle world.
When he read the original book in his previous life, Schelling had already discovered that the attack methods of modern wizards were too simple and monotonous. Most wizards competed in the destructive power of spells and their own dodge rate in the process of fighting.
Schelling, who has an understanding of the Muggle world, imitated the combat methods of special forces and designed a series of tactical spells.
First, based on the fluorescent spell, he improved the fluorescent spell used for lighting into a flash spell that blinds the opponent by enhancing the instant brightness.Then, based on the sound expansion spell, by raising the volume and audio to the limit, he improved the sound expansion spell used for sound amplification into a sonic boom spell that stuns opponents with loud noises.
Schelling believes that the use of various tactical combinations of spells and the flexibility to deal with various complex situations are the real wizards fighting, and wizards who can only shoot and dodge spells are too childish.
As the sonic boom spell exploded with high-frequency loud noises in mid-air, the basilisk was stunned into a stunned state. Sheering transformed the sterling silver dagger in his hand into a gleaming silver sword, shouted "Flying Sword Wadi Vasi", and threw the flying sword out in the form of a javelin. Under the amplification of the "Wadi Vasi" spell, the flying sword drew an afterimage in mid-air as quickly as a meteor, and accurately shot the snake's brain from between the two snake eyes. The basilisk twisted in pain, rolled a few times on the ground beside it, and then stood still.
After so much preparation and risking our lives to fight, it was finally time to reap the spoils.
Schelling snapped his fingers to summon Dobby, and then one person and one elf dismembered the basilisk's corpse.Snake skin, snake eyes, snake gall, snake blood, snake venom, snake horns, and snake teeth are all precious materials. Needless to say, even the tens of kilograms of snake meat Schelling will not let go of. The raw materials are stored in Newt’s suitcase.
(Note: The basilisk has horns. "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" intentionally left out this detail. The core of Slytherin's wand is the basilisk horn, and that wand can only be manipulated by someone who can speak Parseltongue.)
(Note: The principle of the Eye Disease Curse is to forcibly close the eyelids, so the snake's eyes have not been damaged in any way)
[Basilisk corpse material obtained! 】
Before leaving, Schelling did not forget to pick up Tom Riddle's diary from the ground, soak it in the snake venom for a while, and take it away in a special container.
Schelling asked Dobby to apparate himself and Ginny out of the Chamber of Secrets and back to the bathroom on the third floor.
At this time, the entrance to the secret room has already been closed, and there is no problem at all from the outside. It seems that the entrance to the secret room will automatically close after a period of time after it is opened.
Schelling waved his hand, and with a bang, Dobby left the two of them to Apparate away first.
Just when Schelling stepped out of the bathroom door with Ginny in his arms, they ran into Harry and Ron who happened to come. The two looked at Schelling who was hugging Ginny, each drew their wands, and confronted Schelling quietly with a look of wariness.
Although the two didn't know that there was a basilisk hidden in the Chamber of Secrets, Harry still successfully deduced that the student who died because of the Chamber of Secrets 50 years ago was Myrtle.
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the two, Xie Lin didn't know what the two little brats were thinking. They must have regarded themselves as the heirs of Slytherin.
Facing Schelling who had crushed him twice, Harry summoned up his courage and asked with difficulty, "What's going on here? Why are you and Ginny here?"
Before Schelling could answer, Ron, who was worried about Ginny's safety and was irritable, suddenly noticed that Schelling's hands were holding Ginny - he didn't have a wand in his hand!
Scenes of the humiliation Schelling brought to Ron in the past two years flashed in his mind. He grew so vicious that he let out a roar and cast the Slug Vomiting Curse on Schelling!However, Ron seemed to have forgotten that there was a problem with his wand. As a result, instead of finishing casting the spell, Ron's wand suddenly exploded after making strange crackling noises!
The explosion was no small matter, sending Ron flying against the bathroom wall and falling into a coma; Harry was also rolled to the ground by the aftermath of the explosion, terrified; Ginny was lucky, under the protection of Schelling's hastily cast Iron Armor Charm, both Schelling and Ginny were unharmed.
At this time, a soft moan sounded faintly - Ginny had already woken up.She looked blankly to the left and right, and then looked at Xie Lin who had been holding her all the time. Xie Lin put Ginny down gently without embarrassment, but Ginny seemed to have misunderstood that she was the culprit of the "tragedy situation" in front of her, and she burst into tears in panic.
The sound of the explosion also attracted Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape. The two professors didn't say anything. Professor Snape spontaneously took the unconscious Ron to the school hospital, and Professor McGonagall took them back to his office. Not long after Schelling entered the secret room, Ginny's roommate informed the professors about Ginny's disappearance.
After the professors searched every corner of the castle to no avail, they had no choice but to inform the school board and Ginny's parents, and then Dumbledore came back.Professor McGonagall obviously thought that since Dumbledore was back, it was obviously more appropriate for him to handle it.
As they left, there was a dull roar and collapse in the secret room, and the whole ground shook slightly.
