Hogwarts: The Savior's Strong Cousin

"Are you ready?" Harry turned to Hermione and Ron.

"Always ready," Hermione replied firmly.

"Let's face it together," Ron added, his eyes full of fighting fire.

The tall silhouette of the central tower looked particularly eerie in the moonlight. Harry, Hermione, and Ron approached cautiously, their inner tension growing stronger. Harry clenched his wand, his eyes full of vigilance and determination.

"We need to find the entrance," Hermione whispered, her eyes quickly scanning the surroundings, "Be careful, there may be a trap."

They walked slowly around the tower, looking for a possible entrance. Suddenly, Harry's eyes were attracted by a stone tablet with strange symbols engraved on it. He walked forward and looked at the symbols carefully, vaguely feeling that this might be a mechanism for a hidden entrance.

"Hermione, look at this," Harry motioned her over.

Hermione looked closely at the slate, her brows furrowed. "This is a symbol of ancient magic, probably a way to open a secret passage."

"Can you crack it?" Ron asked, with anticipation in his eyes.

"Let me try," Hermione took out her wand and whispered an ancient spell. The tip of the wand emitted a faint light, illuminating the symbols. Suddenly, the stone slab began to vibrate slightly and gradually moved to one side, revealing a dark passage.

"Well done, Hermione!" said Harry approvingly, leading the way down the passage.

There was a damp smell in the passage, the stone walls were covered with moss, and the air was full of the smell of decay. Harry felt uneasy, but he knew they had no choice but to move on.

They walked along the passage for a few minutes and finally came to a spacious basement. In the center of the basement was an ancient altar covered with complex magic arrays, emitting a strange blue light.

"This is their testing ground," Hermione whispered, "They conduct research on dark magic here."

"We have to destroy this magic circle," Harry said firmly. "We can't let them go on."

"But what are we going to do?" Ron asked, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

Harry took a deep breath and felt the power in his body gradually awakening. He knew that this time he had to rely on his inner strength. "We must work together and cast magic to break it."

They gathered around the altar. Harry, Hermione and Ron raised their wands at the same time, concentrated their energy and began to cast spells. Light burst out from the tips of their wands and gathered in the center of the magic circle. The magic circle began to vibrate violently, and the blue light became more and more dazzling, as if it would explode at any time.

"Hold on a little longer!" Harry gritted his teeth, feeling the power in his body surging out. His magic seemed to resonate with the power of the altar.

Just when they were about to succeed, footsteps suddenly sounded from the other end of the basement. A black-robed wizard rushed in with a group of followers, his eyes full of anger and hatred.

"Stop!" the black-robed wizard roared, then waved his wand and a strong beam of magic shot towards Harry.

Harry dodged quickly, and the magic beam hit the altar with a loud bang. The entire basement began to shake violently, stones kept falling from the ceiling, and the air was filled with dust.

"We have to get out of here!" Hermione shouted, her eyes full of anxiety.

Harry nodded and quickly rushed out of the basement with Hermione and Ron. The moment they left, the entire basement collapsed, dust flew, and a huge noise echoed in the night sky.

They stood outside the central tower, panting, looking back at the ruined basement. Harry's heart was filled with mixed emotions, and he knew that this battle was far from over.

"We succeeded, but this is just the beginning," Harry said, with a determined gleam in his eyes, "We must find their headquarters and completely destroy their plan."

Hermione nodded, her eyes also full of determination. "We need more information, maybe we can find some clues in the restricted section of the Hogwarts library."

"Yes, we can't stop," Ron said firmly, "No matter what we face, we will fight together."

They decided to return to Hogwarts immediately to continue their investigation and battle. Hogwarts under the cover of night seemed more mysterious and dangerous, but Harry knew that they had to face it all and protect everything they cherished.

Harry feels the power in his body gradually increasing. This power is both their hope and their challenge. He must learn to control and use this power. In order to break the conspiracy of the dark forces, they will at all costs.

Harry, Hermione and Ron's journey back to Hogwarts was filled with silence, as everyone was lost in their own thoughts. Harry walked in front, with mixed emotions surging in his heart. He knew that the battle just now was just the beginning, and greater challenges were still ahead. He felt a power awakening deep in his heart, a power that was both powerful and difficult to control, making him both excited and uneasy.

"Harry, are you okay?" Hermione walked forward and asked softly, her eyes full of worry.

"I'm fine," Harry replied, trying to sound calm, "It's just that something's bothering me."

"The power within you seems to be growing," Hermione analyzed, "perhaps we need to find a way to help you control it."

"Yeah," Ron interrupted, "you nearly blew up the whole basement just now!"

Harry smiled bitterly and nodded. "I know. I can feel the power growing. We must find out more about its source and how to control it."

After returning to Hogwarts, they went straight to the restricted section of the library. Hermione flipped through ancient books, trying to find any useful information. Harry sat aside, feeling the fluctuations of magic in his body. He closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down, but the power seemed to have its own consciousness and kept surging.

"Harry, do you want to take a break?" Hermione asked, looking up, her tone full of concern.

"No, I can go on," Harry shook his head, "We don't have time to waste."

At this moment, Harry suddenly felt a strong energy fluctuation, as if the power in his body suddenly got out of control. He stood up suddenly, holding the wand tightly with both hands, trying to suppress the power.

"Harry, what's wrong with you?" Ron asked in surprise, his eyes full of worry.

"I... can't control it..." Harry said with difficulty. He felt that the magic power in his body seemed to break through all restraints and burst out.
