A ruined Hogwarts

Five days have passed since Harry was poisoned, and the little wizard has fully recovered and has been discharged from the hospital long ago.

This incident alarmed a large group of professors and made the young wizards in Hogwarts panic. No one knew whether there might be anything dangerous hidden in the castle.

To this end, all the professors, together with the prefects of all grades, searched almost every corner of the castle. To this end, they confiscated a poisonous frog that the Weasley twins had caught from nowhere, and brought it along with them. They have a bunch of weird and dangerous looking joke merchandise. It is said that at that time, the twins' wailing of injustice was so loud that the whole world was shaken by the snow falling in June.

Similarly, including Brace, many young wizards from various colleges who secretly carried prohibited items suffered disasters. Their items were taken away directly and people were imprisoned. In the past few days, there are often little wizards running around in the castle, hurriedly looking for places to hide their treasures.

By the time Harry was discharged from the hospital, the chaos in the castle had almost subsided. After discovering that Harry appeared in class safe and sound, some anxious little wizards were slightly relieved. Others didn't know much about the true circumstances of this incident, and thought that Harry had just been stung by a Billywig bug, or had been poisoned by a love potion or something.

The castle finally returned to apparent peace, but Owen knew that secretly Dumbledore and other professors must have taken strict precautions.

Professor McGonagall lets her kittens patrol the castle. Their cute, flexible and cute figures can be seen everywhere, staring directly at any suspicious guy, which directly leads to the students who dare to violate the school rules during this period. reduced to the highest level in history. This made many rebellious guys full of resentment. They all said that Hogwarts had them but not me. They threw themselves into the battle with the "evil forces" regardless of their own safety, and then were imprisoned by Professor McGonagall one after another.

Professor Snape seems to have become a bit more active and can be seen floating around the castle like a giant bat throughout the day. The most direct result is that the points deduction rate of other houses except Slytherin, especially Gryffindor, has skyrocketed, making the little wizards of Gryffindor watch the hourglass of House Cup scores getting lower and lower day by day. She was so desperate that even Hermione's extra points during class could not be saved.

After Harry was discharged from the hospital, he began to actively investigate the things he had always suspected, but so far, he had not found any clues, which made the originally ambitious little wizard even more discouraged.

In the space facing the wall, Owen stood in the area where he practiced spells, waving the wand in his hand, and muttered "Psychedelic Overlay" in a low voice. The air in front became hazy, and a phantom with the same appearance and clothing as Owen appeared, making stiff movements according to his wishes.

The movements started out as weird as a puppet's, and then became more and more skillful and natural, looking very similar to normal people. But as long as you take a careful look, you can easily find that the figure in front of you is fake because of the dull face and somewhat illusory body.

This is an illusion spell that Owen found in the spell book, which can create a lifelike phantom in front of others. But it only looks real, far from lifelike, and has many flaws. It is of little use unless it is under specific circumstances.

However, this illusion spell can always play a greater role in the hands of a magician.

With a satisfied expression, he waved his wand to dispel the phantom in front of him. Owen cleared his throat, then opened his mouth and made an "ah" sound. It started with his own clear voice, then gradually became deeper and hoarse, turned into a rich male voice, and then gradually became older. Immediately afterwards, his voice rose, and his voice gradually turned into a clear girl's voice, then transitioned to a mature female voice, and finally became as sharp as a house elf.

Switching between multiple voices is a skill that Owen has carefully considered and learned in his previous life. As a qualified magician, you must know a little bit of everything.

"Ahem." Owen pinched his throat and chuckled in a slightly hoarse female voice, "I haven't used it for such a long time. It seems that this skill has not been abandoned."

"Then, it's time for Harry to discover his 'power'." He said to himself playfully. Although there is a high probability that Harry will no longer need to face Voldemort and Quirrell in his plan, it is always good to have a backup plan. Once he gets out of control, he can also have Plan 2 as insurance.

Although it was a bit risky to do something in the secretly tense situation at Hogwarts, it wouldn't be a big deal even if he got caught. It could be used as a prank between friends, and there wouldn't be any problems even if he messed up.

Over the past few days, Owen had taken advantage of the study group to practice spells with each other and tried using some spells to check the possible protective spells cast on Harry. It is very hidden and difficult to activate. It should not have surveillance capabilities - if Dumbledore used magic to spy on a little wizard every day, then he would be as old as a dog.

"It's just a little prank anyway, please welcome it sincerely and with awe." Owen said jokingly, and the figure disappeared in the space facing the wall.

…

After the astronomy class ended, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening. The little wizards walked together through the dim corridor and headed towards the lounge.

As they entered the dungeon, they bumped into Professor Snape. He glanced blankly at everyone's faces, nodded slightly, and then hurriedly stepped onto the upward stairs, his dark cloak flying behind him.

Harry walked at the back of the crowd and turned his head to look with squinted eyes. It was late at night. What was Professor Snape doing in a hurry upstairs?

He thought about the words Professor Snape had overheard threatening Professor Quirrell that day, and the Dean's injured leg on Halloween. Although he still could not confirm what the dean was plotting under the trap door, there were various signs that the unpredictable dean did have another purpose.

Although he didn't want to doubt this professor who looked cold but actually had a good heart, the other person was indeed too suspicious. It was so suspicious that no matter how much Harry thought about it, it was difficult to pick out the other person's suspicions, and the more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became. He even couldn't help but wonder if it was the dean who had tampered with the sorting hat. After all, if he came to Slytherin, the person who could best observe and test him would definitely be the dean of this house!

For some things, once you have doubts in your heart, you are already guilty.

"Let's follow him, just to have a look. I hope I've mistaken the dean..." Harry thought eagerly in his heart, walking slower and slower, gradually getting further and further away from the crowd.

But what left him speechless was that Draco also slowed down with him, raised his eyebrows at him, and looked at him with gray eyes doubtfully. Owen also stopped with interest, a meaningful smile on his face.

"Okay, I just want to take a look. You guys..." Harry sighed, looking at Draco's restless eyes and Owen's expression that seemed to have seen through everything, he took out the invisible bag from his bag. Clothes.

Harry waved his wand and cast a breathless spell and a breath-obscuring spell on himself and Draco, then looked at Owen and found that Owen's figure was becoming transparent, and finally he was completely invisible. He was a little envious that Owen had learned the Disguise Charm early, a spell that he could never figure out, and then put the invisibility cloak on himself and Draco.

The three of them quickly chased in the direction where Professor Snape left. Because they were not afraid of their footsteps being heard, they moved quickly and quickly reached the second floor, where they lost track of Professor Snape.

Owen, who was in an invisible state, secretly recited the illusion spell toward the end of the corridor on the other side, and a black human figure flashed past the end of the corridor. The phantom body spell on his body fluctuated due to the interference of the spell, but fortunately, his body shape was not revealed.

Harry was about to continue going upstairs. He felt that Professor Snape must have gone to the restricted corridor on the fourth floor. But out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure passing deep in the corridor. He quickly turned his head and looked over, only to see a piece of black clothes quickly tucked into the corner.

"Over there!" Harry quickly dragged Draco to follow him. In the middle of the process, he turned around and looked around, wondering if Owen was following him, but he couldn't say anything now.

After turning the corner of the corridor, he found the piece of clothes that had been retracted in the corner ahead, and he quickly continued to follow, without even bothering to remind Owen.

In this way, guided by the vaguely visible hem of clothes, they walked deeper and deeper into the corridor.

Owen used illusions to guide the two of them, looking at the green fluorescent light that was fading away in front of them, with a mysterious smile on his lips. He couldn't see through the invisibility cloak, but it was very easy to secretly apply a little fluorescent powder to the corners of Harry's invisibility cloak due to his identity.

He followed the two of them silently, and at the same time pulled out a very strange black cloak from the bag obtained from the leader of the Black Spirit Organization. The ordinary black cloak is an adult style, with the silver logo of the Aether Society embroidered on the chest, which looks like a shining silver eye. There are wooden brackets supported under the shoulders of the cloak, and the lower end is connected to the shoulder rest.

Owen pulled the black cloak around him and put the shoulder braces on his shoulders. The stand held up the shoulders and hood of the cloak, making him look like an adult nearly 1.8 meters tall.

He finally controlled the illusion and flashed into an empty classroom, then accelerated his speed and entered the classroom before Harry and the others. After lifting the three-piece night travel spell on him, he quietly waited for the arrival of Harry and the others. .

Harry and Draco cautiously poked their heads in from outside the classroom door. The quiet moonlight illuminated the empty classroom through the window. A tall figure in a black cloak was standing quietly in the moonlight, projected on the floor. cast a large shadow. He seemed to be waiting for something silently.

The two young wizards looked at each other under the invisibility cloak. This didn't seem to be Professor Snape... Could it be that they were following the wrong person? But wearing a black cloak in the middle of the night is obviously more suspicious, okay?

Harry's expression became excited, feeling that he was about to find a key clue. Draco kept tugging on his sleeve, pulling him back hard, trying to get away from this suspicious guy.

"You're here." The figure in the classroom said leisurely. It was an unfamiliar rich male voice. It seemed that the person he was waiting for had finally arrived.

Harry and Draco shrank outside the classroom without making any sound.

"Eh? Since you're here, why don't you come in?" The man in black cloak turned around and asked in a doubtful tone. But after seeing the empty door, he suddenly let out a strange laugh, excited and high-spirited.

"Hahaha, it's not Lilith who's here, it turns out to be... Harry Potter." He said in a sinister voice, sounding a little crazy.

Harry and Draco's faces instantly turned pale. They looked at each other, and then ran away in the dark corridor in tacit agreement.

There were no portraits hanging on both sides of the complex and deep corridor, and even the candlelight on the walls was dimmer than other places, making the place extremely dark. The two of them ran wildly in the corridor, not even caring about their ankles being exposed from under the invisibility cloak.

Owen chased out of the classroom, looked at the two panicked ankles in front of the corridor, smiled and recited a curse: "There are many obstacles."

The speed of the two little wizards slowed down instantly, and the surrounding air seemed to be desperately blocking their progress.

Harry has always been quick to change in critical moments. He realized that running away would only expose his back to others, and hiding himself would be useless. That person could obviously see through the invisibility cloak. He suddenly tore off the invisibility cloak, pulled out his wand, pointed it at the person behind him, and loudly reminded Draco and Owen: "Run!" He began to regret taking the two of them with him tonight.

Harry had just missed the spell when he found that his wand fell out of his hands and rolled deep into the corridor. The man in the black cloak didn't seem to be moving at all, but he gave people a terrible pressure. Draco screamed, but it was completely covered up by the Silence Curse. The wand he had just drawn flew out of his hand, and he was tremblingly pulling Harry's hand back, looking like he was about to cry. .

"Harry Potter was so stupid that he sent himself in front of me, haha. Fortunately, that woman Lilith solemnly warned me to test and observe you for a while." The man in black cloak gradually approached with a great sense of oppression. The two little wizards were tripped by a spell and rolled into a ball on the ground.

An idea flashed in Harry's mind and he said loudly: "Did you do something to the Sorting Hat?"

"Sorting Hat? Haha..." The man in black cloak let out a noncommittal chuckle, neither admitting nor denying it, but Harry was convinced that it was their doing.

"What is your purpose? Is it for that thing in the restricted corridor on the fourth floor?" Harry continued to delay, controlling his eyes not to wander around. He didn't know if Irving had followed. If Irving saw this situation, he would definitely ask for help.

"Hey, you actually know about the Philosopher's Stone?" The man in the black cloak admitted in surprise, "Who doesn't want to get the Philosopher's Stone? No one can be indifferent to this kind of treasure."

Magic stone? Harry remembered the term in his mind, and then asked: "So, have you figured out how to get past that big three-headed dog?"

The man in the black cloak sneered: "The three-headed dog is indeed an obstacle... but we will soon find a way to deal with it."

They haven't been able to get it yet! Harry breathed a sigh of relief and said urgently: "So, it was you who released those magical animals during the Halloween party?"

"Haha, whatever you think." The man in black cloak said lazily.

He waved the wand suddenly, and Harry was horrified to see Owen's figure being pulled out of the void, falling hard into the shadows in the distance, struggling uncomfortably, and the wand flew aside. Perhaps because he had recited the Silence Charm on himself, Harry didn't hear any sound from Owen.

"It's over..." Harry gritted his teeth and stared at the silver eye mark on the chest of the man in black cloak, continuing to delay, "Is your target still there? Did you put the poisonous spider on me that day?"

"You are indeed among our targets, but the childish methods of the poisonous spider are not ours. The leader is very curious about what abilities you have, and asked me to observe and test you more." The man in the black cloak sneered, "But I think They are completely over-worried, you are just a foolhardy man, and you are pitifully weak."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the Ethereum Society is really becoming more and more degenerate. It has spent so much money on a stupid and fragile little wizard like you." The man in the black cloak declared with great satisfaction, "But my joining is destined to change this stagnant water. The current situation, inject new vitality and vitality into the ancient and powerful Ethereum Society, and lead it to an unprecedented peak!"

"Why don't we start by killing the Boy-Who-Lived!"
