Chapter 514 Voldemort’s Cave

When everyone and Kreacher's figure appeared again, they found themselves in a dark passage in a crack, surrounded by black rock walls.

In front of them was a staircase leading to a large cave.

Sirius took three steps at a time and arrived at the cave. He glanced at the wall of the cave with no way out, and asked doubtfully: "Kreacher, are you sure this is that place? There is obviously nothing here?" "

Linn gently waved the wand in his hand, receiving the feedback that the released magic brought to him.

"This is the cave, but this is just the entrance to the cave. This cave wall is the trap set up by Voldemort."

Linn said in a deep voice.

Dumbledore also walked over. He sensed the magic fluctuations around him, especially the breath of black magic.

Then he raised his wand and pointed it at the rock ahead.

The next moment, an arch-shaped outline appeared on the rock wall pointed by Dumbledore's wand. The arch emitted a dazzling white light, as if there was some strong light shining outward from behind the crack.

Dumbledore continued to wave his wand, exploring the magical mechanism from Voldemort.

At first, Dumbledore's expression was still very serious, but after a while, his expression became disappointed. He said softly: "Oh, this is too low-level..."

Sirius asked doubtfully: "What did you say?"

Dumbledore explained: "I think we need to pay a price to pass, that is, we need to give this door enough blood. This is a necessary condition for passing this door."

Even though he had heard about the method of passing this mechanism from Klee's incision, Sirius was still a little surprised: "Blood? Does it have to be the blood of a wizard?"

"So I said it was too low-level," Dumbledore said lightly, with contempt and even disappointment in his tone. It seemed that Voldemort failed to meet the standards expected by Dumbledore. "You should also be able to understand that this magical mechanism is Let your opponent weaken you before you can enter.”

Sirius frowned and said, "Then, maybe we can avoid it."

At this time, Irina shook her head and said, "No, I think it is inevitable."

When Voldemort arranged the various mechanisms of this cave, he was still a demon king-level wizard, and he was a demon king-level wizard at his peak.

This means that any magical mechanism deployed by Voldemort is unsolvable for any wizard below the level of the Demon King!

When Voldemort arranged his Horcruxes, which were the hiding places for his life-saving measures, he was definitely targeting his greatest threat, which was Dumbledore.

In other words, when Voldemort set up this magical mechanism, he must have made it impossible for even Dumbledore to break it!

Of course, Dumbledore used all his strength. If he wanted to break through with brute force, this was just a mechanism that stored part of Voldemort's power. Naturally, it was impossible to stop Dumbledore.

However, the power left by the mechanism will trigger the magic arranged by Voldemort in an instant, causing the Horcruxes on the island in the middle of the lake to be teleported away and the cave to self-destruct.

Even though Dumbledore had no way of knowing, he could roughly guess Voldemort's plan, which was why he did not choose to force a breakthrough.

After getting an explanation from Irina, Sirius suddenly understood. He took out a dagger from his pocket and said, "Since blood must be donated, then use mine."

With that said, Sirius was about to stab his arm with the dagger.

Seeing this, Lin En raised his hand to stop him.

"Don't stop me, Linn," Sirius said as he looked at Linn, "I have a certain responsibility for Regulus's death. If being buried here is his atonement for joining the Death Eaters, then experience it for yourself Bringing him home again is my atonement for the suffering he has experienced."

Hearing this, Lin En patted his shoulder and said: "Don't worry, Sirius, the place for you to atone for your sins is still behind! There is no need to let this magical mechanism that cannot be cracked by force, but the content is extremely simple. You’re wasting your energy here!”

"There are countless black magic and curses hidden behind this magic mechanism, which means that it cannot be cracked by force, but brute force cannot be cracked. We can use our brains! Since this magic mechanism wants blood, then we will give it to it, It doesn’t require our own blood anyway.”

Looking at Sirius who looked confused, Linn explained with a smile.

Linn said while turning his gaze to Irina.

Irina took out a blood bag wrapped in ice and containing about 1000cc of blood from her pocket.

"Remember the dark wizard we gave you last time?" Irina looked at Dumbledore and said with a smile, "We took a part of the blood sample from him in advance to prepare for emergencies. "

Dumbledore looked at her helplessly and said: "In case of emergency? I think there are not many magic institutions that you can encounter that require blood, right?"

Irina spread her hands and said innocently: "What if? Then we can't use our own blood, right? Anyway, it will be frozen by the ice, so it won't break."

At this time, Linn had already taken over the ice containing the blood bag from Irina.

A layer of flames wrapped around the ice, gradually melting it, revealing the blood bag inside.

Linn gently tore open the blood bag and poured it on the rock in front of him.

The next moment, the dazzling white outline of the arch appeared again on the cave wall. The rock covered in blood and located in the arch disappeared, revealing a doorway.

"The road is open, let's go in."

Lynn said with a smile.

Sirius stared blankly at the arch that was supposed to be filled with his own blood, but was easily opened by Lin En.

It took a while for Sirius to regain his composure, and he followed Linn's pace.

When everyone walked into the arch, they were greeted by a very strange sight.

Everyone stood on the shore of a large black lake. The lake was extremely wide and endless, and the other shore in the distance could not be seen.

The cave at the other end of the arch is so high that even if everyone looks up, they cannot see the top of the cave.

In the distance, as if in the middle of the lake, there seemed to be a hazy, green light shining, reflected in the dead lake below.

Except for the green light and the light emitted by the flame in Lin En's palm, everyone was surrounded by darkness that was so thick that they could not see their fingers.

Even the light emitted by the flame in Linn's palm was not as bright as he expected. The darkness here seemed denser and thicker than ordinary darkness.

"Let's move forward," Dumbledore said softly, "be careful not to step into the water."

The group of people walked forward around the lake shore, their feet making short echoes on the narrow rocks beside the lake.

However, even though they kept moving forward, the scene around them did not change at all.

On one side of them was the rough cave wall, and on the other side was the endless, smooth black lake surface, with the mysterious green light still shining in the center of the lake. (End of chapter)
