Hogwarts School of the Dark Arts

Under the high vaulted ceiling is a large group of keys with wings flying around, and there is a broomstick next to the wooden door opposite.

It is self-evident how to pass this level.

Xavier watched quietly as Harry mounted the broomstick to grab the key, and did not say that he could open the door violently.

Xavier didn't come here to be Harry's nanny, he came here to travel and relax.

Harry was worthy of being the youngest Seeker. He quickly found and grabbed the correct key, and several people successfully passed the level.

The next level is a huge chessboard, with chess pieces two people tall standing on the chessboard, giving people a huge sense of oppression.

You can see a gate on the opposite side of the chessboard, but it is blocked by the white chess pieces on the opposite side.

"It seems we have to replace the four black stones here and defeat the white stones to pass." Ron said.

"Why? Why can't we directly command the black chess piece to destroy the white chess piece, and then use it to pass?"

Xavier asked immediately, he did have this question.

"Because this is wizard chess, Xavier. If you have never played wizard chess, you may not know. If we are not on the chessboard, the captured chess pieces will be resurrected the next second after the game ends." Ron explained.

"Then there's no need to replace four chess pieces, right? Isn't it enough to replace one? Can't you pass them one by one? You can just direct them here."

Wizard's chess is not much different from chess and chess. They are both games that test strategy.

A very important point in the strategy is to change the pieces. Every time there is one more piece that cannot be replaced in a game, the difficulty will increase several times.

It would be embarrassing if four chess pieces were replaced at once and the player could not win.

Ron was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to say something, Harry suddenly shook his head: "No, it would be a waste of time to pass them one by one. We have no time."

"Harry, what is the purpose of our hurry?" Xavier asked.

"Of course, we need to get the Philosopher's Stone before Snape and protect the Philosopher's Stone to prevent Snape from getting the Philosopher's Stone!"

Xavier nodded: "Then, is Snape in front of or behind us now?"

"Front."

"Then how can we get the Philosopher's Stone before Snape?" Xavier asked.

"But we can catch up to Snape and stop him from getting the Philosopher's Stone!"

"There is only one road here. Even if he gets the magic stone, he can only go back the same way, from here. If we catch up and stop him from moving forward, is there any difference between us staying here to prevent him from leaving with the magic stone?"

Harry was stunned.

"We don't need to be too anxious. Being anxious will only cause chaos. Let's do this. I propose to pass in pairs. Hermione and I will replace the two chess pieces and go over first. I will use the levitating spell to lift Ron into the air and let him Overview the overall situation and command us, and wait until we pass before you pass. Hermione and I are both good at spells, and we can contain Snape even if he suddenly encounters him."

Xavier wanted to laugh when he said this. Among the three people except himself, only Hermione mastered more than three spells, and the other two were not even proficient in the most basic levitation spell.This lineup actually wanted to stop an adult wizard who dared to steal the Philosopher's Stone, and in their understanding, it was Snape, one of the four deans of Hogwarts.

Do they think the four deans of Hogwarts are all parallel imports?

"I agree with Xavier's plan." Hermione said after thinking for a moment.

"I don't have any problem with that," Ron said.

Seeing this, Harry could only nod.

Using the levitating spell to lift Ron into the air, Xavier and Hermione followed Ron's command to replace the bishop and the castle respectively.

Ron's chess skills are indeed very good, and Xavier and Hermione passed this level smoothly.

It took only 5 minutes for Ron to end the battle and appear in front of Xavier in the second game.

"Look, no time was wasted. It may even be faster because the amount of calculations is greatly reduced." Xavier said.

"Yes!" Ron nodded immediately: "Xavier, do you want to learn wizard chess? I think you will become a very good chess player!"

"Not at all interested."

"Forehead……"

After passing through the long passage and opening another door, the four of them came to a hall full of stench. Near a wooden door on the opposite side lay a huge giant monster.

It has been hit by Jiaqingsanjiaqing.

After bypassing the giant monster, the four of them quickly rushed into the opposite door.

But it's not that I'm worried about the troll waking up, but it's just that the smell here is too bad!

Entering the next door, this time it was a small room with a table in the center. On the table were seven bottles of different sizes and shapes, all containing unknown liquids.

Not long after entering, purple flames suddenly appeared on the door behind him, and black flames suddenly appeared on another door leading to an unknown direction on the left front. They sealed the two doors respectively.

"What?" Ron asked.

"Look, here's a piece of parchment."

Hermione was the first to reach the table and picked up a piece of parchment.

"Danger is ahead, safety is behind.

There are two of us who can help you.

Drink them, one will lead you forward, the other will send you back to where you came from.

Two contained nettle wine and three contained killers, waiting in line.

Take your pick, unless you want to be stuck here forever.

We also provide four clues to help you choose:

First, no matter how cunningly the poisons hide, they stand to the left of the nettle wine;

Second, the contents of the bottles at the left and right ends are insufficient.None of them will work for you if you want to move forward;

Third, you will find that the bottles vary in size, and there is no death hidden in giants and gnomes;

Fourth, although the second one on the left and the second one on the right look different, they taste the same. "

After reading it quickly, Hermione breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the same time.

"It's logical reasoning. Many adult wizards and even famous wizards are not good at logical reasoning... But I can solve this puzzle! Wait a moment..."

After hearing this, Xavier and the others waited quietly. No one made a sound, keeping quiet so as not to disturb Hermione who was reasoning quickly at the table.

After a while, Hermione took out two of the seven potions individually.

"It's solved. The smallest bottle can help us pass through the black flames, and the other bottle can help us leave." Hermione said.

"But this bottle only has one mouthful. It's only enough for one person." Ron said.

"Yes, the bottle I can take back is quite large... but it shouldn't be enough for three mouthfuls," Xavier said.

The four people fell into silence for a moment when faced with two bottles of magic potion. No one knew what to choose next.

After a while, Harry stepped forward and picked up the smallest bottle of potion and looked at Hermione: "Are you sure this bottle is the potion that can pass through the black flames and lead to the front?"

"Of course, I'm sure of it," Hermione said.

Bo~

Harry nodded, suddenly uncorked the bottle and drank it in one gulp.
