Harry Potter Platinum Glory

Chapter 9 Under Lake

Slytherin's lounge is located in the innermost corridor of the basement. A stone door hidden in a stone wall is the entrance. A giant snake carved on the door makes a "hissing" sound: "Password."

The leading prefect replied, "Pure blood."

The door opened quickly, and he looked back at the freshmen behind him, "Remember it, or you'll have to sleep in the aisle outside."

Augustus entered with everyone, but his brows were slightly wrinkled, because he always felt that it was a bit strange for the restroom to be built in such a low-lying place.

After entering, the scene in front of him surprised him.

The Slytherin Common Room is a translucent lounge located at the bottom of the lake. The entrance is in the Hogwarts cellar, and it is the two marble doors hidden in a damp stone wall.

The walls of the lounge are made of black Gothic marble, and the ceiling is a transparent semi-circle carved in crystal, allowing you to see the sparkling waves overhead. From the ceiling, heavy chains hang from the ceiling with greenish chandeliers, and the whole room is green.

Although the cellar was dark and gloomy, there was a fireplace with a finely carved mantelpiece, finely carved ornaments hanging from the fiery flames, and beside it were carved chairs with huge backs that seemed to be comfortable to sit on.

Seeing this, Augustus's brows finally eased. He has high requirements for the quality of life, and the Slytherin lounge in front of him is obviously more satisfactory to him.

The decoration of the furniture is the second thing. What made him feel the most novel was the location of the lounge - it was built under the lake water, and when you looked up, you could see the sparkling lake water, and there were fish passing by from time to time, which was very beautiful.

Just as Augustus and the other freshmen were looking at the common room environment, the dean of Slytherin, Professor Snape, wrapped in an all-black robe, like a black cloud, strode in, the gloomy The appearance really stunned most of the students.

The little snakes all stood up and saluted him. Snape glanced at the freshmen who seemed very restrained under his icy gaze, and said slowly:

"First of all, welcome to Slytherin, the best house at Hogwarts. You'll spend a few unforgettable years here, making some useful friends and wielding great power. Of course, if you're not some of the ones I know Stupid words."

Augustus listened with a slight smile. Although this Snape was a little withdrawn and gloomy, he was still good in some aspects, such as protecting shortness, infatuation, etc. Of course, he also had good strength, whether it was black magic or potions.

"Now, before you go to bed, let me tell you some Slytherin traditions."

Snape went on to say that his voice had a convincing power of its own.

"Hogwarts officially has prefects from the fifth grade to help teachers manage their respective grades. Here, we in Slytherin are different from the other three houses. From the first grade, we will have each grade. A prefect. Of course, unlike school prefects, this is private. They will serve as my helpers, lest I have to spend my precious time with all of you messed up kids. It's an honor position, everyone else must obey the prefect unconditionally until you challenge and defeat him. Every three months, there will be an opportunity to publicly defeat a prefect of your age and you can replace him. Do you understand? "

It can be seen from the excitement that the freshmen are eager to try, everyone understands, after all, who doesn't want to be the leader, especially in a place like Slytherin where strength is paramount.

Most of the Slytherins came from pure-blood families, and a few mixed-bloods were strong enough to be recognized by the Sorting Hat. They generally have mastered a lot of magic long before entering Hogwarts, which is by no means imaginable by the children of ordinary wizarding families.

Capable, naturally unwilling to lag behind!

Of course, Augustus also wanted to be the hidden prefect. Of course, he didn't want to be in the limelight, but just now he heard a few senior Slytherins say that the hidden prefect has a separate bedroom.

That's what Augustus wanted, he didn't want to be roommates with those brats. Of course, there is another reason that he doesn't feel like he is being crushed. If he is not a prefect, doesn't it mean that he must obey the rule of "unconditional obedience to the prefect"? With Augustus' temper, don't even think about it. think.

So the hidden prefect or something, it's better for me to be the one.

Apparently, Augustus had already reserved the position of the Hidden Prefect.

As for whether anyone can compete with him, hehe, if he can't beat these little brats, Augustus thinks he can find a wall and kill him, so as not to be embarrassed here.

Snape waved the crowd to disperse, waved his wand, and all the furniture in the center of the lounge was moved to the position against the wall, leaving a large space in the center. A magic circle hidden on the ground lit up, and a winding long snake swam around the ground, forming a large circle.

"Freshmen are entering this circle. It's late, and I don't have time to watch your one-on-one challenges. After I leave, you can start, and the last person standing will be the prefect."

After speaking, Snape turned to leave.

Seeing this, Augustus pouted, and it seemed that Snape felt that the current battle was completely a child's play, and he was not even interested in watching it.

Yes, even if most of the new students here are children from pure blood families, but at the age of eleven, everyone's magic power has just stabilized, and how many more powerful magic spells can they learn?

Don't you see that even Snape's godson, Draco, in the first grade, would be able to use this kind of bluffing trick like an own dragon?

"I was underestimated..."

Seeing Snape leave without looking back, Augustus secretly said, it seems necessary to show some strength.

Just when the little snakes were hesitating, the senior prefect said: "The magic circle on the ground can ensure that you leave this circle when you are in mortal danger. Don't worry, no one will die."

In other words, the magic circle will not be triggered in the case of serious injury? This thought flashed through everyone's mind, and they became even more nervous. Several freshmen were even afraid to cry.

Seeing this, Augustus sighed helplessly. This was probably the weakest opponent he had ever met.

Most of the senior students stayed, wanting to see how these freshmen made a fool of themselves. Obviously, they came here back then.

Seeing that the little snakes were all hesitant, Augustus thought it would be better to get rid of them early, otherwise it would be too expensive, so under the awe-inspiring gaze of all the little snakes, he walked into the circle first.
