Hogwarts Melting Ice Journey

When Stephen put the pocket watch into the groove, there was a violent shaking in the hall, and the surrounding environment changed drastically, just like what he had experienced in the Room of Requirement before.

Stephen looked at the changing scene and took out his wand to face the danger that might arise later.

After almost half a minute, the change in the hall scene ended. Stephen looked around. The originally empty hall turned into a narrow path. The statue was still in front of him, and the pocket watch in the groove gave off a dim blue light.

"So is this a pass?" Stephen secretly guessed the situation he was facing now, "It seems I have to follow this trail."

He took off the pocket watch from the groove, then turned and walked forward along the path. The path was very dark, and Stephen had to use fluorescent flashes to illuminate his front.

"By the way, if there is news about this secret passage in the Marauder's Map, does it mean that the four of them have also been here?" Stephen thought that the Marauder's Map contained the thoughts of the creator, and maybe they could give him some information. .

He took out the Marauder's Map and said, "The prank is over."

"Okay." Stephen looked at the Marauder's Map that had been restored to its original state, ready to verify his conjecture. "I would like to ask the four Mr. Marauders, have you ever been to this place."

After he asked, writing appeared on the Marauder's Map: "Prongs thinks this place is completely different from the places we have been before."

"It seems that the magic here can only block some magic about space." Stephen guessed and continued to look at the writing on the Marauder's Map.

"Padfoot is very unfamiliar with this environment."

Stephen looked at the information provided by the other two people. They also knew nothing about this place.

"Perhaps it's because everyone arrives at a different location when they pass." Stephen put the Marauder's Map away and continued walking forward.

He walked for a few minutes and came to a wooden door. There were sounds of collapse behind him.

"Well, it seems I have no choice." Stephen frowned. If something happened inside, he probably wouldn't be able to get out. "Perhaps the students of Hogwarts will see a new one in the future." The ghost named Smart Stephen is pretty good, much better than my senior sister."

He tried pushing the door, but there was no response.

"Is there a lock on the door?" Stephen heard the collapse sound behind him seeming to be getting closer and closer, and couldn't help frowning, "Open the Alaho hole."

Also no response.

"It would be great if I knew how to use a blazing fire. Why would it be so troublesome?" Stephen thought for a moment and pointed the wand at the wooden door. "Wait, why does there have to be a wand?"

He took out the chalk from his pocket, quickly drew a chainsaw, and then controlled the chainsaw to cut open the wooden door while listening to the approaching collapse sound behind him.

Stephen put his foot on the wooden door and kicked the sawed part directly in. Then he leaned forward and entered through the hole. Not long after he entered, the place where he was just collapsed.

"Fortunately, it's still in time." Stephen relaxed slightly, and then observed where he entered.

"An office." He looked at the interior decoration. The room was not big, with a desk in the center, and behind the chair was a large bookshelf filled with books.

The light source of the entire room was a small chandelier on the ceiling. It seemed that the light it emitted was very weak. Stephen had no choice but to use a wand to illuminate the room so that he could observe everything here carefully.

The office was very tidy, and everything was placed in an orderly manner. Stephen didn't see any dust on the table, chairs, or bookcases. It seemed like someone was cleaning the place frequently.

He walked to the desk and looked at the things on it: a candlestick with three unused candles on it; a silver-white snake-shaped statue. The thing that attracted him most on the table was an open book. notebook.

"Slytherin's Office" Stephen felt that the only ones using snake statues in Hogwarts were Slytherin and the students of his college.

He walked around the desk and came to the bookshelf, looking at the books on it.

"This, the basilisk breeding manual looks quite interesting, and it contains the castle renovation design." Stephen took the book off the shelf, then opened it and looked at the contents.

"Headache." Stephen looked at the wild handwriting on it. The content was mixed with a lot of Latin and Old English, and combined with a large number of calculation formulas, it made him feel like he was reading a heavenly book. "What is written here. "

He flipped through it casually and felt that he really couldn't understand it, so he had to put the book back.

"Wait, so..." Stephen thought of something, "Doesn't it mean that the books here are basically written like this..."

Stephen randomly picked out a few books from the bookshelf. As expected, the contents were basically written in Latin and Old English, and some were even in other languages.

"Then how do I find a way out?" Stephen looked at the things in the room. Apart from the wooden door he just entered, there seemed to be no other exits here.

His eyes fell on the notebook on his desk. Maybe there would be some records in it.

"Is this a study of snake language?" Stephen flipped through the pages. The content before the page seemed to be about phonetic notation. "Do you need to know snake language before you can leave here?"

Stephen took out his pocket watch to check the time, but he discovered a magical thing. Time seemed to slow down. He felt that the second hand on the pocket watch seemed to be much slower than usual, but he was a little unsure. After all, he had no reference and could only rely on his own feeling.

"Interesting." Stephen put the pocket watch back into the lining of his robe, and then looked at the other two items on the table.

The candlestick seemed nothing special. He tried moving the candlestick and picked it up easily.

"There's something wrong. Logically speaking, this kind of candlestick should be very heavy." Stephen put the candlestick down. It felt like solid wood, but the weight seemed a bit too light.

He reached out to the statue again. The statue seemed to be made of silver, but otherwise there was nothing special about it.

"Slytherin must have never imagined how deceptive the room he left was. If you open one, someone will die." Stephen decided to study the snake language and find the word "open", which might save his little life. Life.

"Maybe it should be this one." Stephen found one in the notes based on his impression, "Haisi Hassa."

As he utters this serpentine phrase, the statuette snake on the table opens its mouth, and the bookshelf begins to shift, revealing the door that was previously hidden behind it.
