While Rosie and Grace were talking, Irene found Shadow Arrow's skill book from the bedside table in this dormitory.
This discovery immediately confirmed Jiang Jing's previous guess: the hidden items in the away copy were based on the experiences of the home players.
…
Ten minutes later, Rosie finally told Grace about the process of getting to know her in the other two dungeons. In order to increase her credibility, she even switched to snake language and said a few words.
Although her words sounded bizarre, Grace still chose to believe it.
After Grace told her, Rosie also got some shocking news.
Voldemort is resurrected!
Not the real person, but the student Tom Riddle in the diary.
As in the original plot, at the beginning of school, Lucius Malfoy mixed Voldemort's Horcrux diary into Ginny Weasley's books.
Bewitched by the diary, Ginny opened the secret room, used chicken blood to force Grace into a rage, and petrified the cat raised by the administrator of Hogwarts.
After this, Ginny was killed and the Horcrux Diary fell into the hands of the opposite player.
After Grace tried to save people twice but fell into a trap and ended up losing control and killing people, she had no choice but to hide temporarily.
These two deaths allowed Tom in the diary to draw nourishment and obtain a preliminary resurrection.
Later, he personally killed Colin, which allowed him to recover somewhat from his weakness.
After that, as all the students of Hogwarts were gathered in the auditorium, he had to set his goal outside the school and temporarily left Hogwarts in order to fully recover.
"Grace, I have a question."
Looking at Grace, Rossi asked in confusion, "I understand that Voldemort's resurrection requires death. But since he has helpers, why must he do everything possible to force you to kill someone?"
After hearing this, Grace hesitated for a moment, and finally whispered the reason:
"The soul of a person who dies because of looking at me will be drawn out of the body. To resurrect a Horcrux, it needs to absorb the soul as nourishment."
Well... these are truly soul-stirring eyes.
At this moment, Grace suddenly made a gesture of listening.
"Grace? What's wrong with you?"
Seeing her increasingly serious expression, Rossi asked in surprise.
The next moment, Grace said in a heavy voice: "He is back, in the auditorium."
"he?"
Rosie was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood who she was talking about, "Voldemort?"
Nodding slightly, Grace said: "Rosie, there are many students in the auditorium, I have to save them!"
"Aren't there still Hogwarts faculty members in the Great Hall? They can't stop Voldemort either?"
Seeing that she was about to leave, Rosie hurriedly took Grace's arm.
Feeling the warmth of his palm on his arm, Grace paused for a few seconds and said:
"Pomona has been killed and the others are trapped in the secret room."
Professor Pomona is dead?
Can Grace even hear this?
Is this hearing too outrageous?
Shaking away a series of subconscious thoughts in his mind, Rossi hurriedly advised:
"Don't be impulsive, Grace. Are you sure you can defeat Voldemort?"
"No, but Hogwarts is also Lord Slytherin's hard work. I can't turn a blind eye when the school is in danger."
Grace shook her head, but her tone was firm.
"But since you're not sure, what's the point of running up there? Giving Voldemort his head?"
Abo couldn't help but complain.
Although it was the first time he heard the expression "give someone's head", it did not affect Grace's understanding of its meaning:
"For me, dying to protect Lord Slytherin's efforts is very meaningful."
"Don't say that."
After pondering for a moment, Rossi said solemnly, "Grace, before it's time to fight to the death, there are still people in this world who can stop Voldemort."
"You mean Dumbledore?"
Grace asked with inquiring eyes, "Do you know where he went?"
"I don't know, but I should be able to find it."
Rossi turned his attention to Abo, "Do you have the tracking map with you?"
Hearing this, Abo nodded quickly, then took out a piece of parchment from the inventory and spread it on the desk.
"Albus Dumbledore!"
As Rossi clicked the wand, lines spread out on the parchment, forming a map in the blink of an eye.
"Little Hangleton."
Arbor immediately read out what was shown on the map, "Dumbledore is in this place called Gaunt's Old Mansion."
Gunter's old house?
Isn't that where Voldemort hid the Horcrux ring?
At this point in time, Dumbledore knew and went to find the Horcruxes?
Questions arose in Rossi's mind, but in the end he could only attribute the answers to these questions to the plot changes that took place in "The Philosopher's Stone".
Putting away her thoughts, she glanced across the crowd and stopped on Grace's face:
"Grace, is there another way to enter the secret room?"
"There is another way, the entrance and exit is in Slytherin's hidden dungeon."
As Grace said that, she walked to the fireplace in the bedroom and put her hand inside to tinker with it a few times.
Soon, the stone door in the fireplace slowly opened.
"Rosie, what are you going to do?" she asked confused.
"Well... the situation is urgent, we can only split into two groups!"
After opening the Floo Network map and swiping a few times, Rossi said seriously, "I'm going to find Dumbledore. You and Grace will go rescue McGonagall and the others. With their strength, they should be able to hold off Voldemort for a while."
As she spoke, she handed the wand to Erin beside her, then took out the lantern from her backpack and held it in her hand. Immediately afterwards, she walked into the stone door first.
Inside this stone door is the room she once visited, named Slytherin's Unknown Dungeon on the system map.
Erin and the other four quickly followed.
"You're going alone, without your wand?"
"Yes, it's enough for me alone. After leaving the Forbidden Forest, let Buckbeak fly me to Hogsmeade, and then teleport from there to Little Hangleton to find Dumbledore. This is not dangerous. Is there any need? To the wand.”
After saying this, Rossi asked Grace again, "Is the other way to the secret room inside?"
Grace nodded:
"Well, there is a secret mechanism on the wall at the end on the right, and the other entrance is right there."
Eh? There is actually a mechanism leading to the secret room over there?
After following her guidance, Rossi immediately remembered that he had searched there before and asked doubtfully:
"That cylindrical iron cage with human bones and skeletons inside?"
Seeing her nod again, Rossi suddenly felt astonished and said:
"You guys can go to the secret room later. There should be a wand in the spider cave. It's better to get it first in case you need it."
After a pause, she said again: "Follow me first!"
With the dim yellow light emitted from the lantern, Rossi quickly walked to the stone door at the end of the cell, switched to snake language and said "open the door".
The moment the words fell, the serpentine pattern carved on the stone door quickly twisted and shrank, and with a "click", the stone door opened on its own.
I'm so busy today, I posted late
