Alchemy Black Technology at Hogwarts

Chapter 91 Countermeasures
Draco Malfoy.

"It must have been the Chamber of Secrets that Voldemort himself opened."

This thought flashed through William's mind in an instant.

Unlike the original plot, where Voldemort's soul resides in the diary, which controls Ginny to open the secret room, Voldemort must still be in the castle right now.

This may seem unreasonable, but when you think about it carefully, it is extremely logical-nothing can bring chaos to Hogwarts than opening the Chamber of Secrets again, and it can also attract Dumbledore's attention.

That student, if Voldemort hadn't been on the number himself, might have only the level of magic of an ordinary senior.Naturally, he is not qualified to make a comeback, but the basilisk in the secret room can.

Voldemort opened the Chamber of Secrets half a century ago.

Although he has only heard Jimmy describe the whole thing, William, as a complete picture, dares to say that he can roughly restore the whole process.

"With unknown means, Voldemort has already transferred his soul or consciousness from Quirrell to that student in advance.

But Quirrell's miss, and Dumbledore's quick reaction, made him realize that he had to do something, or it would only be a matter of time before he was discovered. "

William wondered what he would do if he were Voldemort.

"I need to lure Malfoy into the classroom—it's not too difficult, I just need to say that I have some secrets or a powerful spell that I want to share with him, and Malfoy will naturally think that he is trying to curry favor with him.

Choosing Malfoy was indeed a very Voldemort-esque choice, choosing from the holy 28 instead of the ordinary Gryffindors, which was enough to make everyone panic.

And Voldemort certainly hated the Malfoys for deserting their master, and killing such a traitor would serve as a fitting warning.

That fool Montague has more brains than Cheese has eyes, and it's so easy to Confound or Imperius on him. "

It's just that William couldn't be sure whether Voldemort was trying to give the Malfoys a chance to regret it, or if it was really an accident.

——Just before Malfoy saw the basilisk and was about to die, the ghost blood man Baro broke in, blocking his sight and the basilisk. This story sounds a bit too coincidental.

Meanwhile, the castle is underground.

"I checked that Montague's memory myself.

But nothing is seen. "

Dumbledore shook his head and said.

He meant seeing nothing in the literal sense—that poor boy, all recent memories had been brutally cleansed by the spell, leaving not a single trace of it.

This watertight method made Dumbledore feel a strong sense of familiarity, but it was more tricky and deadly than Tom was when he was a student decades ago.

"But it's impossible!"

Snape said loudly.

He himself is a master of manipulating memory and Occlumency, but he can't imagine how to do such a thing—not long ago, Montague was talking to him normally, even accusing him.

But when Dumbledore checked Montague's memory, it suddenly became blank again.

"I entrusted Barrow to keep an eye on any Slytherin students. He must have noticed something unusual. We must restore him and the Malfoy boy as soon as possible.

But this petrification... I've never seen such a sticky state, I don't intend to appear arrogant, but even I can't untangle it at the moment. "

Dumbledore looked up suddenly.

"It's not so much caused by deep black magic as it is... a curse, Pomona told me, and perhaps only a potion made from a fully grown mandrake can undo it.

I'll write to St. Mungo's and the merchants in Diagon Alley to see if I can find some, but Severus, I want you to act first.

I don't think we have the leisurely time to wait for the mandrake to mature, he will definitely find an opportunity to hurt more students. "

Mandrake is a very rare herb, and only a handful of herbal masters can safely cultivate them. It is very dangerous to raise and transfer mature mandrakes.

Few sane people would stockpile.

"I'll try."

Snape nodded and replied, "But what should we do?" He raised his head, looked at Dumbledore with a hint of expectation, and asked slowly.

"We have no choice but to wait.

I'll find a way to find the Chamber of Secrets.

But when it comes to potions that dispel petrification, maybe you can ask Buffalo for help.I can't tell you why, but his assistance will be of great benefit to you. "

Dumbledore's long and slender fingers crossed in front of him - obviously, he could pull out all the hidden dangers and get the castle back on track, but after a while, reality dealt him another heavy blow .

And besides the Chamber of Secrets, Dumbledore has another imminent danger to deal with - this matter will surely be known to the school board soon.

The victimized student was the son of the Malfoy family, and he could already imagine how crazy Lucius Malfoy's reaction would be after dawn.

But now he couldn't leave Hogwarts no matter what.

Dumbledore also thought of a new question:
"If it wasn't Voldemort's soul that escaped after Quirrell died that day, who would it be?"

"Is Quirrell really dead?"

William also thought of this question.

He sat on the sofa in the common room, in front of him was a burning fireplace.Gable was lying on William's lap, his little furry head bouncing, as if he might suddenly fall asleep in the next second.

When Professor Flitwick returned, he informed them that starting today, Hogwarts would be under the strictest curfew - and no one would be allowed to go alone, day or night.

"Some preparations have to be made."

William made his decision.

He regretted not being in the castle at that time, otherwise, if he knew to check the Marauder's map, it would be of great help to find Voldemort in the castle.

Confronting the Basilisk directly, beating Voldemort violently, are not suitable for him to do.

But as a time traveler, although the current plot has become messy and out of shape, William can still find some opportunities to use "Dumbledore Flying" to fill in the old Futou's obstacles and stumbling blocks.

"This is not a chance."

William suddenly thought.

Facing the danger of the secret room, no one would easily refuse the opportunity to add a little more protection to himself - there is absolutely no time more suitable for him to launch a brand of magic protection products than this time.

"You can start with simple ones."

William remembered that in the original book, the Weasley brothers once invented a wizard hat that could automatically bounce relatively simple curses back to opponents.

Through the configuration and enchantment of the rune language, he is sure to do better than the mischievous hat-the reason why William has not put it into action is only because the timing is not mature enough.

Ever since Quirrell's turban flying curse was used, William has completely lost the possibility of peaceful coexistence with Voldemort-although William was not originally prepared to deal with a guy who was extremely unstable.

"Notify Lalo to install mirrors at every corner of the castle, and find an opportunity to bring the Chamber of Secrets and the Basilisk in advance."

William added his thoughts little by little.

The basilisk is a very dangerous magical creature, but Dumbledore's flying is also very powerful white magic-not to mention that almost every part of the basilisk is a treasure.

　　The plot of the Chamber of Secrets is too weak to be a volume alone, not to mention that there are spoilers and it is not enough to play.
