Chapter 204 May have to escape

Spells flew into the Crucible of Death, their melodies strange and strange, like ancient spells from the abyss.

The red mist rising from the pot entangled and swirled in the air, intertwining with each other.

Immediately afterwards, the rolling hot liquid gradually became thicker. It was like a ball of black-red glue, exuding a disgusting fishy smell.

Even with the transparent stone wall and the bubble seal, Roger and Jessica still smelled the stench.

This stench is invisible and colorless and acts on the soul. Anyone who sees it cannot escape the stench.

A low-pitched prayer came from the gurgling bubbles in the cauldron: "I, Corvis Lestrange VI. Use my bones as a boat and my soul as a sail; sneak across the River Styx and resurrect my sins."

As the words fell, a human skeleton slowly condensed from the slurry.

"I use flesh and blood as ink and bones as paper."

Immediately afterwards, countless bloodshot eyes adhered to it. The serum slowly became clear and translucent, and a smooth male body gradually took shape.

The darkness around him slowly gathered around him, and the cold wind howled from the depths of the earth.

Jessica suddenly felt bad. If the ceremony ended successfully, Corvis would kill them to protect the secret.

She kept casting spells to attack the obstacles in front of her, but no matter what magic, she couldn't get through it.

"Get out of here first!" Jessica looked at the sleeping Barbara and said helplessly.

"No, the old crow is scaring us!" Rogge shook his head, "Now is definitely when he is at his weakest."

He had understood the logic of Corvais VI's evil plans and bloody rituals.

Old Crow first spread the news that he was going to die, and called the family descendants back to Lestrange Manor through his inheritance.

Then, he used the key to lure everyone into the catacombs, and then staged a fake death in front of everyone.

In this way, the lit corpse wax will confuse people's consciousness, and they will enter the prepared stone chamber. The old crow uses the maid to perform black magic rituals for himself.

He used the crucible as a mother body and injected the offspring's blood as a medium. The flesh and blood of Bell's mother and son, and the bones of Corvis's ancestors are all the raw materials for the new body.

From beginning to end, Lao Crow's goal was very clear.

He believed that the decaying and aging body was the root cause of the wizard's death. If you want to be reborn, you need to reinject your soul into a young, strong body.

Rogge understood that if he chose to leave at this moment, the consequences would be disastrous.

The catacombs have intricate passages, and wizards can Apparate their way out of them. But without the guidance of corpse wax, it would be a fantasy to find this place. Moreover, Bara and Fleur were in the stone room, and leaving would mean that they would die.

"But we can't get through!" Jessica took two steps forward, destroying the transparent wall in front of her.

The walls seem to have been specially reinforced by Corvis VI and are very hard. No matter how much she tried, she couldn't destroy it.

Jessica clenched her fist angrily and hit it hard. A low muffled sound came from the wall, echoing in the passage.

Boom... boom... boom...

The echo was very far away, and it was not until the third sound that the old witch raised her head. She sneered at the two of them, seeming to mock their overestimation of their abilities.

"How did Barbara and Fleur get in?"

"Perhaps Corvis blocked the passage after they entered?"

"But how does the old crow know who comes first?"

"Is there a possibility that they are not behind the wall?"

…

The two looked at each other and kept coming up with various guesses. Suddenly, the man in the crucible moved.

His bald head had beard and hair sprouting out, and his two slender arms pressed against the edge of the crucible, struggling to stand up.

It's a pity that he is still a blurry mass below his chest, and it still needs time to slowly shape up.

The old witch stood nearby and comforted Covis VI: "Master, you have to wait a little longer, otherwise your body may become deformed."

Kovis VI looked at her with wide eyes, understanding that waiting was the only option. But he felt a little uneasy because the discussion between Jessica and Rogge was approaching the truth.

"Mom, he's in a hurry!" Rogge's eyes lit up and he muttered in his mind: "Start the simulation!"

【1】You used fireball to melt the wall in front of you, but got nothing;

[2] King Corvis VI disappeared, and the Lestrange Manor was destroyed by fire;

【3】A few years later, you find the bodies of Barbara and Fleur in the catacombs.

"They are not on the opposite side!" Rogge was shocked, "Is this a magic projection?"

Rogge began to recall bits and pieces of what had just happened, and soon discovered something fishy.

There was a delay between the knocking on the wall and the old witch raising her head, as well as a delay between their questions and the old crow's response.

In other words, Old Covis prepared a pair of projection walls. Both sides are talking to the wall, and we may be thousands of miles apart.

It turns out that this was the wrong place from the beginning. Roger couldn't help but marvel, what a cunning old crow.

Rogge looked at Jessica and whispered: "Our guess is correct, the other party is not behind the wall. This should be a magic projection."

"Then where will they be?" Jessica frowned and looked around at the darkness.

If they didn't know the exact location of Corvis, how could they track it?

"Is the French Ministry of Magic strong?" Rogge suddenly asked.

Jessica looked at her son and reminded: "The strength of the French Magic Senate cannot be underestimated. If Dumbledore is not included, it may still be higher than the British Ministry of Magic."

"Hiss..." Rogge took a breath of cold air, these old magic circles really hide their secrets.

Jessica looked at her son suspiciously. She didn't think Rogge wanted to ask the Magic Senate for help. Otherwise, you wouldn’t ask the other person whether he is strong or not.

There is only one possibility to ask such a question. Rogge's next actions may lead to pursuit by the Magic Senate.

"What do you want to do?"

"Save people!" Rogge said firmly, "We may have to escape from France later."

Rogge unleashed fierce fire in his mother's surprised eyes. The raging flames used the bones as firewood and spread violently and quickly.

It turned into a huge fire crow, roaring like a prehistoric beast. It opened its huge mouth and burned everything around it.

The air was instantly filled with a strong smell of flames, and the silver-white light reflected every inch of the tomb passage and licked every inch of the land.

The raging flames rolled in like a torrent, driving away all the darkness and coldness, and coating everything in sight with light.

Rogge glanced at the panel. After a school year of practice, Li Huo had reached level 5. If not here, Old Crow's secret chamber is still in the catacombs. As long as you operate it properly, you will definitely find Old Crow's secret room very quickly.

"Crack!" He waved his magic wand skillfully, and the fierce fire instantly turned into countless exquisite fire crows.

They shuttle between the tomb passages, devouring any bones that stand in their way.

"This..." Jessica's expression changed and she looked at her son worriedly.

The countless skeletons in the catacombs are the best nourishment for Li Huo. If the fierce fire escapes Rogge's control, it will become the most terrifying flame in history, and it will definitely burn the Muggle city above into nothingness.

At the same time, the temperature of the upper tomb passage began to rise rapidly, and countless strong heat streams poured into it. The manhole covers in District 14 began to shake, and snakes, insects, rats, and ants emerged from their nests and fled frantically through the city.

"Found it!" Roger shouted.
