Retirement from Hogwarts

"Hmm~ Gryffindor is indeed the legendary master of space. After walking so far, I didn't feel any trace of space magic." Jack carefully recalled every detail in the passage, trying to find out from inside There are hints of Gryffindor magic.

"Never mind the magic, what should we do now? Go back directly?" Hermione said as she walked towards the archway connecting to the main castle.

"Don't go out, I think I know. Let's keep moving forward." Jack grabbed Hermione who was about to enter the main castle and said. "Gryffindor must have set up a clever space jump in the corridor just now. We are no longer on the surface of space. If we walk back to the main castle now, I am afraid we will completely miss Gryffindor's chamber of secrets. ”

"I didn't expect you to know this." Athena on Hermione's shoulder said in surprise. "Jack is right. As long as you keep walking forward, you can enter the correct passage."

"Space Jumping Technique?" Hermione carefully recalled the records about Space Jumping Technique that she had read in the book and frowned and said, "Didn't the light and shadow effects of that magic be very strong? Why didn't I see it? "

"You have actually seen it, but you just think of it as other magic." Athena inside the egg said.

"You mean the scan of the statue?" Jack reacted immediately after hearing Athena's prompt.

"Yes, that's it. Now I feel more and more that it was the right choice to follow you out of the black and white world. The future adventure life of such a smart little devil must be very exciting." Athena listened. Jack said in an old-fashioned way after his judgment.

"Then let me borrow your good advice, the great goddess Athena." Jack couldn't help but shook his head after hearing Athena's words.

Then, he took Hermione's hand and walked towards the entrance of Gryffindor Castle.

"This is Gryffindor's Chamber of Secrets?!" Hermione exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the room in front of her that was no smaller than the Great Hall of the main castle.

Jack glanced at the magic books and various collections placed on the shelves around the room and said faintly: "Maybe it's a treasure house. I didn't expect that at least three of the four founders of Hogwarts were What about the rich people? Did they create Hogwarts because of the tacit understanding between the rich people?"

"You're wrong. It's not that three of the four founders are rich. It's that all of them are rich." Hermione corrected seriously. "Not just any family can produce a magic Death Star like Hogwarts."

"Magical Death Star? Hogwarts is also a magical Death Star?!" Jack couldn't help but asked in surprise after hearing Hermione's words. "When Hogwarts was founded, wasn't it prohibited by the order of the Presbyterian Council?"

"Presbyterian? You think he is the Ministry of Magic. No one cared about that kind of thing in the pioneering era when Hogwarts was founded." Hermione curled her lips and said. "Okay, don't talk about this, let's start looking for the mirror you need. But how should we find so many things?"

"Let's split up. I'll start from the left and you start from the right. But don't touch the things here until we find the mirror." Jack said.

"Don't touch anything here?" Hermione asked doubtfully. "You mean..."

  Jack nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I meant. This is probably not the real secret room. In other words, this is probably just a part of the secret room, a part used for testing."

After Jack finished speaking, the two started searching in this huge treasure house.They quickly shuttled between the rows of tall shelves. The various kinds of treasures on the shelves were almost dazzling.If Jack didn't have a clear purpose for coming here, he would have wanted to borrow the King's Treasure exchanged from the Lord God's Space to move the entire treasure house directly.

"How's it going? Did you get anything there?" A full hour later, Jack saw Hermione panting at the end of the treasure house.

"No. I suspect this is not a real treasure house at all." Hermione shook her head tiredly and said. "I have seen many of the magic books here in Darien, but their magic fluctuations are not consistent with the magic books in Darien."

After Hermione finished speaking, she sent a spectrum analysis chart to Jack's personal terminal.

"There is indeed something wrong with the things here," Jack said after carefully studying the magic wave spectrum of the treasures here. "What is attached to them is actually a kind of spell. If you look at these places, their magic power fluctuations are actually exactly the same. The different places are actually artificially inserted to confuse the view."

"So, this is actually not Gryffindor's secret room at all."

"You can't say that, Hermione. To be precise, this is the door to the Gryffindor Chamber of Secrets." Jack said as he led Hermione towards the entrance of the treasure house.

"Sure enough, it's this trick again. Can't Gryffindor play it differently?" Jack shook his head and said, feeling the unfamiliar space fluctuations coming from the other side of the arch. "This door is no longer connected to the previous sky corridor."

"Wait a minute," Hermione grabbed Jack, who was about to walk into the arch, "we're not going to go back to the school directly, are we?"

"Don't worry, of course not." Jack shook his head and said. “The space opposite the arch is unlike any other space we’ve ever been to.”

After Jack finished speaking, he took Hermione's hand and walked in.

. . . . . .

"Bang~"

"Bang~"

Two heavy muffled sounds were particularly harsh in the dark and silent corridor.As the sound rang out, the entire corridor seemed to come alive.Dim torches burning with purple flames burned on both sides of the corridor.However, because of the long distance between the torches, these flickering purple torches made the dark corridor look even more eerie.

"Where...is this?" Hermione's weak voice sounded in the corridor.

"Ugh...God knows where this is." Jack retched and rubbed his head, which was slightly dizzy from the space teleportation. "This is the worst space teleportation system I've ever used."

"Floating light." Hermione stood up with difficulty holding on to the wall. She waved her wand and summoned a ball of light floating above their heads to illuminate the corridor around them.

"Where's Athena?" When Jack got up from the ground, he noticed that Athena, who had been on Hermione's shoulder, disappeared at some point.
