Chapter 072
After listening to the two explanations, Avis fell into deep thought.
He finally knew why Voldemort chose today to steal the Sorcerer’s Stone. As long as he knew some of the secret passages in Hogwarts Castle, he would definitely be able to sneak in smoothly when Dumbledore was away from the castle.
Judging from the fact that Voldemort hid his Horcrux in the Room of Requirement and found the secret room left by Slytherin, he must have explored the castle very deeply, and it is normal for him to know some secret passages.
What’s more, since today is the last Quidditch match of the school year, almost all students and staff will choose to go to the stadium to watch the game.
In this case, Voldemort had nothing to fear.
But he didn’t expect that today’s game would end so quickly, as if Merlin was consciously working against him.
Avis looked around and wanted to ask Fox to send them away.
But looking left and right, he didn’t see the phoenix with bright red feathers.
Only then did he realize that Fox had already left after sending him here.
Ives was a little confused. He didn’t know what Professor Dumbledore was thinking. Was he planning to take this opportunity to train Harry, or was he planning to train him.
To be honest, Ives wanted to leave now, but he was afraid that Voldemort would regain his original strength after getting the Sorcerer’s Stone.
Voldemort’s strength is by no means weak, and the two encounters in the Forbidden Forest gave Ives a first-hand understanding of his strength.
The non-stop, surging magic power, and the unstoppable life-killing curse that remains unabated after shattering layers of entities. That night, the weak Voldemort was able to overwhelm Professor McGonagall, which shows that his strength is far beyond what the original work shows.
If Voldemort really succeeds in obtaining the Philosopher’s Stone, Ives doesn’t think he can handle it. He might be able to save a small life with his magic shield, but what about the others?
After Voldemort regains his strength, he will inevitably restart the Wizarding War. When the entire magical world is plunged into war, no one can survive alone, including Ivis.
And those Returners hiding in the shadows.
It stands to reason that after Voldemort left Quirrell, he should have returned to the state of a wandering soul, but now he can actually return to Hogwarts to snatch the Sorcerer’s Stone. Ives’ intuition told him that this had something to do with the Returner.
After all, Voldemort’s philosophy is very similar to the Returner’s purpose, so maybe they have already united.
The voice of the system suddenly sounded in Avis’ mind

【Issued a mission: to prevent Voldemort from obtaining the Philosopher’s Stone】
【Mission reward: Add one to your Charms talent, and add one to your Black Magic talent.】
“Huh,” Ives let out a deep breath, his eyes became firm, and he decided to stop Voldemort.
His strength is different from before, not
to mention that this operation may be under the control of Dumbledore. The worst In this case, he could also use the tail feathers given by Fox to shake Dumbledore over.
“Let’s go,” Ivis said to Harry and Ron, and the three of them walked deeper along the dark corridor.
There was a long silence along the way, and they could only hear their own footsteps, and the water flowing along them. The sound of slowly dripping from the wall. They walked down the slope along this corridor.
They didn’t stop until a little light came from ahead. At the end of the corridor was a brightly lit room with a high vault above. Across the room was a heavy wooden door.
Through the light, Ives could clearly see that a large hole had been blown out of the keyhole of the wooden door, and key-shaped objects were scattered in the center of the room..
Ives knelt down and inspected the keys. There were traces of fire on them. It seemed that Voldemort had used a magic similar to the fire spell to solve them.
“Snape must be in front of us,” Harry said confidently, but he did not impulsively go to the next room. It was undoubtedly a stupid decision to separate from his companions.
Ivis did not refute, he did not expect him to say a few nice words. It can change Snape’s image of a villain in their minds. I just hope that when they finally know the truth, they can realize their mistake.
Since the wooden door has been destroyed, they did not have to ride a broom to find the key in the original book. Link can directly lead to the next level.
Entering the next room, Ives thought it was just a small challenge to play wizard chess. Unexpectedly, when he got closer, he found that it was more like a tragic battlefield.
The battlefield looked huge. On the chessboard, huge black chess pieces and white chess pieces are scattered all over the place, with parts dismembered from them everywhere. There are a dozen still intact chess pieces in the distance. Under the influence of magic, the missing parts of their bodies have been removed. Slowly repairing it.
After the three of them stepped into the room, the chess pieces turned their heads and looked over.
None of their faces had facial features, but it gave Ives a feeling of being locked. It was obvious that these chess pieces They don’t rely on their eyes to lock on to the target.
This strange scene made Harry and Ron a little scared, and Harry subconsciously asked:”What should we do now?”
“Maybe we want to play a game of wizard chess?”
Looking at the giant chess pieces two or three meters high in front of him, Ron swallowed and made some gestures. Although he played wizard chess very well, these chess pieces were too big!
Ron had no doubt that they could attack at will. In one fell swoop, the three of them had to lie down at Madam Pomfrey’s place for ten days and a half.
While they were talking, the chess pieces began to attack.
A black knight flicked his whip, and the horse under his feet He rushed straight over. Behind the black knight, there were also white soldiers and bishops.
Obviously, because of Voldemort’s intrusion, the rules here have completely changed. I am afraid that the only way to pass is to knock down all the chess pieces that are still standing. Go to the next level.
Ives raised his wand and blasted the leading knight’s horse to pieces with an explosive spell. The knight sitting on it fell out immediately, with half of his head broken.
But before Harry and Ron could Happy, it stood up again, and the broken half of its head was still absorbing the stones scattered around, repairing the injury visibly to the naked eye.
