The Mysterious Black Cat at Hogwarts

Harry and Ron cast lighting spells and quickly caught up with the black cat. This was a small open space. The weak magic came from an inconspicuous mountain wall. Combined with the small stone platform next to it, people subconsciously thought of it. to the key to opening the mechanism.

Harry looked at the stone wall and drew out his long sword. If he used all his strength, maybe three swords could penetrate it.

Ron also clenched his fist eagerly. He was confident that he could break through the stone wall with the strength of his own body.

"This is a vicious trap. It seems that if we want to pass here, we have to pay a price. Voldemort wants to weaken us." Sirius, who finally arrived, relied on his experience and immediately discovered the problem.He cut his palm with his wand, sprinkled the blood on the stone platform, and said to Harry, "Our former group was called 'The Marauders', and this name is not for nothing."

Everyone looked at the blood on his hands, flowing out like it was free, but there was no movement on the stone wall.

"It seems that my guess is absolutely correct. The more blood you lose, the weaker you will be." Sirius didn't want Harry to worry about him, and continued, "However, losing this little blood is not a good thing for me, an adult wizard. It’s nothing. Wait another minute and the mechanism will open.”

There was a loud bang, and the ferocious black claws penetrated the stone wall like broken bamboo, and the black cat jumped in impatiently.

Ron followed closely behind, and Harry wanted to say something to Sirius who was stunned, but finally threw him a bottle of fresh juice and ducked into the cave.

"Don't young wizards these days play their cards according to common sense?" Sirius bandaged the wound, muttered, and quickly followed.

The cave is surrounded by jagged crystals. Under the illumination spell, it reflects a colorful halo, which is really beautiful.

This is a natural geode. The black cat slowed down so that the three people on its back could appreciate the miraculous craftsmanship of nature. It was also for safety reasons.Although these crystals are fascinating, they are also very dangerous. The sharp edges can easily cut the skin.

"Are these gems?" Ron held up his wand and approached a purple crystal. The crystal clear texture was extremely beautiful.

Harry turned to look at Ron in panic, and found that there was only curiosity and confusion on his face, and then he felt relieved.

"It's a crystal. This is a crystal cave. It's the first time I've seen it outside of books." Hermione explained excitedly. She took out her wand and used the levitating spell to collect the various crystals that had been uprooted by the black claws. Black cat hairpin, "What's even more amazing is that there are so many types of crystals in this geode, it's incredible."

"Bring some back, it would be nice to decorate the room." The black cat blinked, and a large number of ferocious black claws poured out of the void like a blanket. No grass grew wherever they went. After just a moment, this beautiful geode became Gloomy and a mess.

"···"

There was no obstacle of crystal in the cave, and everyone began to quicken their pace. Soon, a huge cave appeared in front of them. Water droplets fell from the stalactites on the top into the water, and dense ticking sounds were heard.

"This cave is full of water," Harry manipulated the lighting spell to approach the water. The clear water was still dark, "It seems to be very deep."

Seeing the large amount of water in front of him, Sirius couldn't wait to squat down, hold it up and drink it into his stomach. The large amount of blood loss made him thirsty. Even if the water vapor in the cave was abundant, it could not offset his physiological need for water. "This water is very clean, Macon, why are you looking at me like that?"

Harry and Ron looked at the black cat and found that he had stood far away at some point, and his tail had exploded into a feather duster.

"You drink the water here, is it hygienic?" Black Cat felt his stomach churn.

"Hygiene? You have to know that I have been imprisoned in Azkaban for 12 years without drinking any water." Sirius shook his head, took another two sips of water, "The water in this cave is different from those who don't know what it is." Compared with other liquids, it is clean and hygienic."

"Didn't I tell you before? Regulus was dragged into the water by the Inferi and became one of them." As soon as Black Cat finished speaking, everyone changed their expressions. Mihos and Bowen even covered their faces. After closing their mouths, Harry and Ron also moved away from Sirius.

"It, are there many of them?" Sirius froze in place, and he felt his stomach begin to churn.

"Tens of thousands..."

"Ugh!~~~"

A fire lit up in the dark cave, bursts of green smoke rose, and the firewood was burned by the flames, making a crackling sound.

The skinned rabbits were skewered together and placed on the fire. The black cat held the handle of the grill with both paws and shook it slowly. Sprinkling spices from time to time, emitting bursts of alluring fragrance.

Sirius' face was pale and his eyes were lifeless as he lay on a blanket. Blood loss and violent vomiting made him unable to lift any strength at this time.

"Sorry, Harry. Everyone came here obviously for me, but in the end I was holding back." Sirius said guiltily. Not only did he not play any role, he even lay down without seeing an enemy. .

"It's okay, it's lunch time now, Macon won't miss it," Harry covered him with the quilt, fearing that his weak body would be invaded by the cold and wet again, "Get some rest, we'll be waiting later Bring you food.”

"Is he okay?" Hermione asked in a low voice when she saw Harry coming over. Sirius had been vomiting violently just now. Even though his stomach had been emptied, he still retched for a long time.

"You should be fine after eating the food later." Harry nodded and looked at the water not far away. There were tens of thousands of Inferi below. How to find Regulus inside became a problem. No one could I don’t know if I can still tell the difference after being soaked for such a long time.

"Professor, what is the Inferi?" Bowen asked curiously. To this day, this is the first time he has heard of the Inferi, and there is no record of the Inferi in his textbooks.

"The walking corpses created by Voldemort using black magic have no life, souls or thoughts." The black cat pinched the rabbit meat, then put its grease-covered paws into the fire, and looked at the flaming paws and said, "I'm afraid. Fire and light, like dark and damp environments.”

"Is it powerful? There are so many of them down there, how are we going to deal with them?" Mihos also asked his doubts.The huge number is calculated in tens of thousands. Even the weakest enemy can only become the opponent's meal after the magic power is exhausted.

"Eat in peace, I have my own way." The black cat blew out the flames on its paws and rubbed Mihos' head to tell her not to worry.

Mihos found that the oil on the black cat's claws had completely burned out, but the cat's fur was still dark and shiny, and there was no abnormality in the temperature.If magic is a magical existence to her, then Professor Black Cat is a god-like existence.
