Chapter 199 Re-entering the maze

Winning the Quidditch trophy made Harry extremely popular at school, and this celebrity treatment lasted for at least a week.

As the excitement of the Quidditch final faded, time quietly came to June, when all students were preparing for their final exams.

Wright, who had made all the preparations, came to the courtyard of the castle under the cover of night.

In the open space in front of the maze entrance, after he set up the concealing magic, he looked at the weak points in the space that had been detected.

After checking the arrangement again, Wright directly changed into a gorgeous robe, and was immediately enveloped by a heavy castle-like glow.

Protected by the thick light, Light directly summoned the light bird.

"Wow!"

The silver bird of light chirped and flew directly from his body into the air. The silver light turned into pure white.

I saw the bird of light flying into the air, spreading its wings high and chirping again.

A huge amount of magic power condensed in the light bird in the air, transforming into a pure white beam of light that blasted towards the weak point that had been detected long ago.

An extremely condensed beam of light hit the space barrier, continuously creating ripples like a stone thrown into the water.

As the beams of light continued to bombard, Wright could clearly feel that the barrier of the maze space was constantly weakening.

The space barrier that was originally so tough that it was indestructible began to show fine cracks as the light bird continued to output magic power.

However, even if cracks appeared in the barrier of space, the attacks of the light birds could not break through it.

It seems like it’s just a little bit away, but it’s always just that little bit away.

Wright was not surprised by this, and he took out the magic wand engraved with mysterious magic runes as prepared.

With the same magical power surging in his body, he aimed his magic wand at the collision point between the light column and the barrier and stabbed it in accurately.

In an instant, countless cracks appeared from where the magic wand was inserted.

"Wow!"

The wings in the air vibrated, and the emitted light beam was condensed, turning into a light cannon to bombard.

Like the crisp sound of glass breaking, pieces of illusory space fragments scattered everywhere...

In the darkness, Wright carefully watched the constantly twisting void, and the invisible ripples in the air kept rotating towards the center.

It turned into a pitch-black hole, just like a flat painting with a hole torn in it, appearing empty and weird.

Looking at the space channel that had been successfully opened in front of him, Wright called the light bird in the sky back into his body.

Facing the vortex-shaped entrance that was about two meters wide and high, he did not hesitate and stepped directly into the space channel.

Not long after Wright entered, this space channel that was forcibly opened up slowly closed.

Unlike "Apparition" and Fox's spatial movement, he came back to his senses after just a moment of trance.

The long-lost vast and gloomy maze appeared before his eyes again.

However, it is different from the previous bush maze that was several meters high and exuded a dark atmosphere and strange power at all times.

In this maze, the shrubs are only two meters high, and there is nothing strange about it. It is just like an ordinary garden maze.

"It seems that the previous battle has destroyed this maze!"

“If we want to return to the previous scale, it will be impossible without the sacrifice of tens of thousands of people.”

Just as Wright was looking at the maze and considering whether to push it directly to the center of the maze with force.

The surrounding bushes and walls made rustling sounds, as if they were constantly moving.

Soon, a wide road leading directly to the center of the maze appeared in front of Wright.

"It seems that the owner of the maze already knows that I'm here! Is he afraid that I'll continue to mess around?"

"And instead of expelling me, they let me in directly. That's really courageous of them."

"But! Even if you can expel me this time, there will be next time, and the next time... If you can come once, I can come countless times."

……

Looking at the open space at the deepest part of the passage, Wright's mind was full of thoughts.

But he did not stop, but walked forward directly along the passage opened by the owner of the maze.

Walking quickly to the end of the passage, Wright frowned and looked at the empty space in the center of the maze, muttering:

"Empty City Strategy? Or do you want me to step onto the open space in the center?"

After thinking for a moment, he immediately activated his robe, and the light surrounding Wright shot out towards the open space, continuously scanning.

"I didn't find any traps. It looks like a space node. They want me to go straight there."

After receiving the feedback from the robe, Wright narrowed his eyes and said to himself: "Then let's give it a try!"

He tightly grasped the glowing wand in his hand, without any hesitation, he stepped directly onto the open space.

The moment he stepped onto the open space, Wright seemed to have entered a different space.

When he came to his senses, he was already in an unfamiliar place.

The space here is wider than imagined. Looking around, it is a magnificent castle hall.

The surrounding walls were inlaid with densely packed gems, illuminating the dim castle hall.

The tall stone pillars on both sides extend to the end of the hall, appearing extremely solemn and grand.

On the high platform at the end of the hall, there was a gorgeous high-backed chair made entirely of gold and inlaid with gems.

A wide blood-red carpet stretched from the end of the hall to the castle gate.

At this moment, a figure wearing a pure black wizard robe with a hood appeared out of thin air on the chair.

The black-robed figure looked at Wright standing in the middle of the carpet and said in an aria tone with great indifference:

"Tell me your name, you fool who wants to destroy the Philosopher's Stone!"

Hearing such a strange tone, Wright tilted his head and did not answer his question.

Instead, he looked at it with the eyes of a thespian, and said slowly, "Are you Union Blackwood?"

"Blay (Darkness) is my middle name!"

The black-robed figure sitting on the high-back chair did not deny Wright's address, nor did he show any panic about his identity being revealed.

Instead, he cared a lot about his name and corrected it very seriously.

In response to Yuning's sincere answer, Wright suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and continued to speak loudly:

"It seems that I was right. The Black family used to have the surname Bligh (Darkness) before the 16th century."

"Until the witch hunt initiated by the pure-bloods got out of control, and in order to avoid that disaster, I changed my surname."

"Thus, you are cut off from what you did before, and it seems that you are part of what is cut off."

"This maze was created by all the purebloods who wanted to make the Philosopher's Stone as a place for experiments!"

"After all! Such a huge project cannot be accomplished by two wizards."

However, Youning, who was sitting on the high-back chair, did not show any intention of answering Wright.

He simply raised his right hand and tapped the air a few times. Sticky black shadows continued to emerge from the area around the castle and transformed into ferocious beasts.
