Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

Chapter 191 Unveiling the Secret Chamber

So fast? !

Snape looked at Sebastian's smug face in surprise.

It took less than three minutes and the basilisk was dealt with?

Are you kidding? I just heard the roar of that giant snake.

With a suspicious look, Snape followed Sebastian into the Chamber of Secrets.

Sebastian had installed a large number of magic lights on the ceiling of the secret room, so every detail could be seen clearly.

As soon as he entered the Chamber of Secrets, Snape's eyes were attracted by the frozen basilisk.

So big? !

It looks even bigger than the snake skin just now.

He looked at the frozen giant with a look of surprise and doubt.

There is a strong smell of life and death water in the air.

So the basilisk is asleep now.

Snape silently calculated in his mind how long it would take him to capture the giant python.

Soon, his face turned gloomy.

He found that unless he used all his strength and killed the snake monster directly, he would not be able to defeat the giant snake in such a short time.

However, it is impossible for him to capture the basilisk alive in such a short time with his current level.

Damn it, why is there such a huge gap between my strength and that of the stinky swan!

"Severus, what are you daydreaming about?" Sebastian interrupted Snape's contemplation. "Come on, collect some basilisk venom first."

He waved his wand and collected two bottles of venom from the basilisk's mouth, and finally pulled out several of the basilisk's fangs.

Seeing that Snape was about to say something again, Sebastian directly took out a bottle of venom and handed it to Snape, successfully interrupting his spell.

"This is your share, brother. I think I am being nice."

Snape opened his mouth and swallowed back all the words he was about to say.

Forget it, for the sake of the basilisk's venom, I won't argue any more with this stinky swan.

It just so happens that with this bottle of venom, I can figure out the formula of potion related to snake venom when I go back.

After thinking for a moment, he also came to the basilisk and collected two full bottles of its blood.

After finishing everything, Snape raised his head and carefully observed the secret chamber that had been sealed for centuries.

There were stone pillars on both sides, and on each pillar was a carving of a coiled and entangled giant snake. The snake carvings were lifelike, as if they would slide down from the pillars at any time and approach them with their tongues spitting out.

On the far wall was a massive statue, almost as tall as the chamber itself.

The statue has an old, ape-like face with deep wrinkles on its forehead, revealing the ruthless erosion of time.

The sparse long beard hangs from the statue's chin to the hem of the wizard's robe carved from stone, adding a sense of mystery and majesty to the statue.

The statue's eyes were lowered, as if examining the intruder in the secret room.

"Salazar Slytherin." Snape came under the statue, looked at the statue's face, and muttered softly.

"It seems that the rumors are correct. Slytherin did focus on blood magic before leaving Hogwarts."

"He sought to enable wizards to master the powers of magical animals, and in order to do so he experimented on himself, changing his appearance to that of an ape."

"What a pure and great man."

Looking at the statue of Slytherin, Snape's eyes were filled with emotion.

He felt a resonance with Slytherin, a resonance with fellow magic researchers.

Even if it is not understood by the world, we will continue to pursue the ultimate secret of magic.

Even if it means using myself as an experiment, it doesn't matter.

Besides, who says Slytherin is evil? He clearly has the ability to use other wizards for experiments.

"Why are you daydreaming again, Severus?" Sebastian urged, "Hurry up and find a more secret room."

"I just don't believe that Slytherin went to so much trouble to create the Chamber of Secrets just to give his little pet more space to move around."

Hearing this, Snape glanced at Sebastian unhappily.

This stinky swan is such a spoilsport.

The guy who only cares about interests has no feelings at all in this special environment.

However, what the stinky swan said makes sense. Slytherin should keep a secret office in the Chamber of Secrets.

After all, there is no better research environment in the entire Hogwarts.

Thinking of this, he drew out his wand and looked around.

Unlike Snape, Sebastian stood still.

He closed his eyes and turned into a radar. With his powerful magical perception, he sensed every inch of the secret room.

After a long while, Sebastian opened his eyes and came to a blank wall to the right of the statue.

In the entire secret room, there are only three places where there are traces of magic.

The entrance door, the statue's mouth, and this blank wall.

Among them, there is no need to explain much about the gate. The mouth of the statue should be where the basilisk enters and exits. The only thing left is the wall.

Slytherin's secret office should be behind this wall.

Sebastian kept thinking in his mind.

In the original book, the snake language that Voldemort used to summon the basilisk in the notebook was "Speak to me, Slytherin - the greatest of the four giants of Hogwarts."

What is the password to this door?

After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and tentatively said to the wall in snake language: "Open!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two invisible snake carvings appeared on the wall. As soon as they appeared, they separated to both sides.

Then, the stone wall split in the middle and slowly disappeared on both sides.

So simple? !

I thought I would have to take Harry down and try different passwords in Parseltongue a few more times.

It turned out that I was just thinking too much.

That's right, only Slytherin himself knows about this secret room, so there is no reason for him to set the password for the office too complicated.

Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to read a lot of fancy words every time you enter the office.

"Severus," Sebastian shouted, "I found it, come!"

Restraining his excitement, he walked into the secret office.

Unlike the secret room outside, the entire office was extremely dry, without a trace of moisture.

The decoration of the office is simple yet solemn. A large number of magic books and notebooks are neatly arranged on the bookshelf in the corner.

The covers of some of the books have turned yellow, showing their age.

However, the strong magical fluctuations showed that these magic books had all withstood the test of time and were still able to support people's reading.

In the center of the office stood a large laboratory table with some ancient alchemical equipment placed on it. It looked like no one had used it for a long time.

On the other side of the lab bench, there is a simple wooden table.

There were some old parchments scattered randomly on the table. The words on the parchments were slightly yellowed, but still clearly legible.

Sebastian slowly walked to the table and carefully read the handwriting on it.

He found that the handwriting was very familiar, exactly the same as the handwriting in the Horcrux notebook.

It seems that Voldemort also discovered this room and spent a happy time studying here.

He glanced at Snape beside him, grinned, and pointed at the parchment on the table.

"Severus, guess who was the last person to visit here?"

......
