Hogwarts School of the Dark Arts

"You still remember what we asked about Nico Flamel and the Philosopher's Stone before, right?"

Xavier nodded.

"It's in Hogwarts! One hundred percent, Professor McGonagall admitted it. And we found out someone was trying to steal it! We wanted to tell Headmaster Dumbledore, but Headmaster Dumbledore was suddenly called to a meeting at the Ministry of Magic , Professor McGonagall doesn’t believe us that someone wants to steal the Philosopher’s Stone, because we have no evidence.”

"This is a conspiracy! Someone is deliberately trying to drive away Principal Dumbledore! They will definitely take action tonight! So we decided to steal the Sorcerer's Stone and protect it first."

"We already know that the Philosopher's Stone is protected by several professors, and we know that one of the links is Hagrid's three-headed dog, but we don't know what the other levels are. We only know that including Professor McGonagall The deans of the four colleges have taken action, so we need your help to increase our chances of winning.”

"Will you join us in protecting the Philosopher's Stone?"

Dudududu finished speaking quickly like a bamboo tube pouring beans, and Xavier couldn't help but rub his forehead.

Recently, he has been so busy with new magic that he almost forgot about this.

"If you are sure you want to do it, I will naturally accompany you... Anyway, the holiday is coming soon, so just relax."

"Great!"

I have to say that it was a bit crowded for four people to squeeze under an invisibility cloak.In order to avoid showing off their flaws, the four of them hugged each other almost tightly.

Under the leadership of Harry, the four of them went all the way to the utility room that Principal Dumbledore had specifically stated during the opening ceremony that entry was strictly prohibited.

This utility room is very old, full of dust and cobwebs, all on the corners, shelves, and weird statues.

But the floor was quite clean, as if someone had specially cleaned it.

Passing through the utility room, there is a door at the end, which is now open a crack.

"Oops! Snape must have passed Neville. We have to hurry up and speed up to stop him." Harry lowered his voice and said quickly: "Are you ready? If it's not too late to quit now, you can take him with you Leave the invisibility cloak, I don’t need it now.”

"Don't be silly."

"We are a team."

"I'm free~"

"Okay, everyone, be vigilant. Let's go in now."

After saying that, Harry took a deep breath and opened the door.

This was the first time Xavier saw a three-headed dog, and he thought it was... quite cute.

Three big round heads are squeezed together. It would be better if the corners of the mouth were not so clean.

"What do you need me to do? Defeat it?"

Xavier looked at the three-headed dog looking in the direction of the four people and asked softly, while drawing out his wand.

"Look over there, behind his left leg," Hermione said.

Xavier looked over and saw it was a harp.

"It likes music. According to Hagrid, it will fall asleep when it hears music. Now I... um..."

Before he finished speaking, Harry had just taken out a flute in his hand, and suddenly he heard familiar music playing in front of him, which was a lullaby.

After the music started, the three-headed dog suddenly began to shake, and the six eyes on its three big heads gradually closed.

"This effect is too exaggerated. Have you had special training?"

Xavier complained as he took back his wand.

"Great!" Ron exclaimed: "We can go through the trap door, so who will go down first?"

It was so dark under the trap door that nothing could be seen clearly, which made several people feel a little nervous, including Xavier.

Who knows if there will be any changes down there? Maybe Voldemort was down there right after he passed?

Jump down and eat a big melon on your face?

"Let's see what's going on down there first."

Following this, Xavier took out his wand again and pointed it downwards.

"Fluorescent flashes!"

A white light emerged from the tip of the wand and illuminated downwards, lasting about three seconds.

"What's down there? I can't see clearly at all." Harry pushed up his glasses with some annoyance.

"It seems to be a bunch of vines... It shouldn't hurt too much if you jump like this." Hermione said.

"It's devil's ivy. They are afraid of light. Some of them have moved just now. Let's wait for them to come back before going down, so as not to jump directly to the ground below them and break their legs." Xavier said.

"it is good."

"Ah."

"I'll listen to you."

After waiting for about 20 seconds, Xavier nodded to the other three people, indicating that the time was almost up.

"I'll take Hermione down first. I know the Featherfall Curse."

"Okay, Ron and I will join us later."

Xavier held out his hand to Hermione, and Hermione took a deep breath after holding it tightly, then looked at Xavier and nodded.

"3, 2, 1...ah?"

Xavier was suddenly pulled down and was stunned. Why did you jump before I even shouted?

He quickly adjusted his posture and took out his wand, then pulled Hermione to his side with a strong tug.

"Shock reduction and speed reduction!"

Xavier and Hermione, who were falling, stopped suddenly and then slowly fell down.

"ah!"

Hermione exclaimed as she suddenly felt herself being picked up.

"Let's move away a little before the Featherfall Curse expires, so as not to be hit by Harry and Ron."

"Ah."

Hermione hummed softly, burying her head on her shoulders and not daring to look at Xavier.

Under the influence of the Featherfall Curse, Xavier walked on the devil's vine without causing any reaction from the devil's vine. Now they were as light as feathers falling on it.

Less than two meters away from the original position, the sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground suddenly came.

"Use fluorescent light at your feet," Xavier said after putting Hermione down.

"Oh, okay, I know this spell!"

Hermione looked slightly panicked and took out her wand and waved it hard.

"Fluorescent flashes!"

The devil's vines under his feet moved away, and then there was the sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground.

When Xavier and Hermione slowly landed on the ground, Harry and Ron had already gotten up from the ground.

"I thought you would catch us down there." Ron said resentfully.

Xavier shrugged: "You came down too fast and didn't have time to recite the spell."

"Okay, don't waste time, we have to hurry up... go this way."

Harry looked around as he spoke, then waved for everyone to follow him.

However, even if he didn't tell anyone, they wouldn't leave separately from him, because there was only one passage ahead.

This passage seems to have been in disrepair for many years, and the sound of water dripping can be heard from time to time.

Xavier looked up and could see moss growing on the stone wall above his head.

It's like walking in a sewer.

It's a pity that this is a sewer in the country of China, not a sewer in Germany. Otherwise, Xavier would definitely have to look for an oil paper bag hidden somewhere. If you open it, you will get a brand new sewer!

While thinking wildly, they walked forward. After a while, everyone came to a brightly lit room.

Directly opposite, there is another door.
