Chapter 130 Crack

In the deep passage, screams rang out one after another. Ron sat astride Lockhart and kept smashing down with his hands.

Seeing Lockhart with a bruised face, Harry and Hermione quickly stepped forward to hold Ron back to prevent him from beating the man to death.

Ron, who was being pulled, struggled to free himself from Harry and Hermione's hands, lifted Lockhart's collar with both hands, and shouted:

"Tell me, why did you want to harm George and Fred?"

Lockhart, who was beaten black and blue, said vaguely:

"I didn't want to do that. They often teased me and found out that I was hanging out with the basilisk at night..."

Before he could finish, the angry Ron punched him again.

As for Goyle and others who were attacked later, Ron said he was not familiar with them and did not know them.

After Ron had vented his anger, Wright stepped forward and pulled him away.

Looking at Lockhart who was still groaning, Wright cast a sleeping spell on him, making him lie down.

Looking at the door of the Chamber of Secrets in front of him, Wright thought for a moment and decided to leave the sleeping Lockhart to the care of Harry and the other two.

"But……"

"No buts. There's a basilisk on the other side, and numbers won't make any difference."

"It is equally important to keep an eye on Lockhart. Whether Hagrid can get away with it depends on you!" After saying that, Wright walked straight into the secret room.

Harry, Hermione, and Ron looked at each other and wanted to follow, but they also understood that facing the basilisk, more people would be a burden.

After turning a corner, Wright saw the end of his journey, but there was a wall blocking the way.

Waving the magic wand in his hand, the raging fire turned into a giant beast, instantly smashing the obstacles in front of him.

Feeling an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart, Wright walked quickly into the secret room with an expressionless face.

In the huge and empty room, what caught the eye was a huge statue. It was the first head of Slytherin: "Salazar Slytherin!"

At this time, Ginny and Fred were suspended on both sides of the huge statue.

A giant snake was coiled on the ground, seemingly asleep, with thick black mist surrounding it.

Before Wright could make a move, the black mist on the giant snake surged and turned into an illusory human figure.

"I didn't expect you to come so soon. I'm still missing a sacrifice!"

Looking at the familiar yet strange figure in front of him, Wright did not respond, but asked with a smile:

"What should I call you, Tom Riddle? Or... Voldemort?"

The magnetic voice just now disappeared, and was replaced by a snake-like hissing sound:

"Call me Tom! After all, Voldemort has already failed, and I don't want him to be my future."

"The Divine Edge is Shadowless!"

Too lazy to chat with him, Wright simply waved his wand, and the invisible wave directly chopped at the giant snake coiled on the ground.

Unexpectedly, Tom actually sensed this invisible fluctuation and just waved his black mist arm.

It directly bounced away the 'God of Shadowless Sword' and cut a huge crack on the statue behind him.

"It's really urgent! But it's not of much use." Tom said nonchalantly.

Before Wright could continue his attack, he spoke again: "If you continue to attack, the two sacrifices next to you will die!"

Seeing the light on the tip of Light's wand dim, Tom showed a satisfied expression.

At the same time, he told the truth about the basilisk as if giving alms:

"Did you know? The basilisk is hatched from a rooster's egg! It is a creature that does not belong to the common sense."

Looking at Tom, who was full of confidence and seemed to have everything under control, Wright wanted to get angry and hit him directly.

When Wright was hesitant, a silver light suddenly flashed in his eyes, as if he was connected to some kind of power.

At this moment, the whole world seemed different in Wright's eyes.

"It's done! The Horcrux has merged with Legilimency. The next step is to call it to help me."

Feeling the wonderful connection, Wright immediately gave an order, and a loud voice rang out in his mind.

Tom, floating above the basilisk, was still passionately asking and answering questions to himself, feeling that the situation was in his hands.

"Then do you know why it can live so long? Even after thousands of years, it still remains immortal?"

"Because it has never lived, it cannot die."

Hearing this, Wright's eyes suddenly turned completely black, with countless silver lights flashing in them, like a bright starry sky.

At the same time, Wright, who was connected to the Horcrux and knew everything, shouted out all the secrets of the basilisk:

"Because it doesn't exist, but it has a body. So the basilisk is constantly cycling between life and death."

"And the crowing of the rooster will tell it that it exists and is alive. Then the basilisk will become a real life."

"Then the cycle that has been maintaining the basilisk will collapse, and at that time, all the time and life it has stolen will be returned."

After listening to Wright's explanation, Tom looked puzzled, as if wondering how he knew it so clearly.

Ignoring Tom's doubts, Wright continued:

"The basilisk is like a snake biting its own tail, in an eternal cycle, constantly growing and becoming stronger in life and death."

At this time, Tom stared at Wright, whose aura and magic were completely different from before, and his voice suddenly became heavy: "What else do you know?"

But Wright chuckled, his eyes like the stars seemed to see through all the secrets, and said to Tom lightly:

"I don't know much, but not too little either. For example, your current condition is not very good!"

"You figured out how to sacrifice three lives related to you so that you can be reborn in the body of a basilisk, right?"

Looking at the constantly changing black fog, Wright grinned and knew he was right, so he continued firing:

"Originally, you wanted to devour memories and implant your spirit into other people's minds, thus taking over theirs."

"But, I failed every time. Although Lockhart is a idiot, he has extraordinary attainments in mental memory."

"He discovered your plan and he's wary of you, so you need to find someone else to control you."

"Ginny was stopped by me, as was Fred. It was not until you lost the Horcrux that you lost your support, and you dared not try this again."

Then, Wright looked around and said with a smile: "But you still seem to be a step behind!"

"That's enough! You..."

"What are you waiting for? I'm waiting for support. What exactly are you waiting for?" Before he could curse, Wright interrupted him coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a clear and long cry was heard, and a bird with silver spots of light scattered around flew out from the dark passage.

Like a silver meteor, it flew towards Ginny and Fred who were floating in the air.

Looking at the light bird rushing towards them like lightning, the black mist on Tom's body dissipated instantly, wrapping up the two of them.

"It's useless. I have enough protective measures..."

Before Tom could finish his arrogant words, he discovered that his black fog was easily broken through by the silver light bird.

The moment the light bird touches people, it wraps them in its silver light and protects them.
