Chapter 364

~8 min read 1,402 words

Katie Bell disappeared again. Murphy took Lucas and walked toward the entrance of the Great Hall.

Sure enough, the gate was gone.

Walking a distance in the thick fog, before long, he would return to the podium or the dining table, or come to the stairs leading to various floors, but the gate that was clearly open when he came in just now didn't know where it went, no matter how he looked for it.

Hogwarts was blocked.

This could be considered within expectations.

Just now Professor Flitwick said this might be a ritual magic, there should be a source.

And that source, maybe it is the "Chamber of Secrets."

Murphy left the Great Hall with Lucas, preparing to find the girls' bathroom where the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets was located.

But the spatial position in the school became extremely strange. He was clearly preparing to go up, but for some reason, he ran to the underground classroom, and met Snape here.

Snape sat on an empty stool in the classroom, but his eyes kept staring at a thin red-haired figure standing beside a potion table in the classroom.

The girl was flipping through a book while dealing with the materials on the workbench. After a while, she stopped, looked at the potion in the cauldron, and then looked at the book, seemingly puzzled why what she made was different from the textbook.

But at this moment, Snape stood up. He came to the potion workbench, reached out, and fiddled with a material on the table.

"Ah, so that's it, I forgot to put in the mistletoe berries..."

The girl took the berry, threw it into the cauldron, stirred it, and soon a happy smile appeared on her face, then she looked around again. "Is anyone here?"

"I am here, Lily. Always have been."

However, this sentence seemed to be unheard by the other party. She didn't get a response, so she packed up the utensils, packed the potion in the cauldron, looked around again, and got up to leave.

Snape opened his arms slightly, but the phantom just passed through his body and disappeared.

Snape stood there for a long time without moving.

"Professor, have you been here all the time?" Murphy said. "Do you know what happened in the school?"

Snape turned around slowly. "Murphy, are you real?"

"Do you want me to punch you in the face so you can feel it?" Murphy said impatiently. "What happened here?"

"Thick fog," Snape said confusedly. "Just now the thick fog suddenly surged out, and then I saw Lily. I followed her. She disappeared and appeared from time to time, but finally she stopped here... I seem to be able to influence her, or the things around her, the latter is easier, but she can't see me..."

"Wait," Murphy frowned. "You said the thick fog surged out just now. What were you doing before?"

"I was making an antidote, nothing special."

"Do you know that three students are missing in the school?" Murphy asked.

"What?" Snape was stunned. "How is it possible? Why didn't anyone notify me?"

Murphy frowned. If it was suspicion just now, now he already had some clues.

Time and space in Hogwarts have had some problems. It seems to have become a place connected to the past, and the space has also become very chaotic and twisted.

But how was this done?

"Professor Snape, I suspect the Chamber of Secrets has been opened, we have to go and see. Are you coming?" Murphy asked.

"Chamber of Secrets?" Snape was shocked. "Who opened the Chamber of Secrets?"

"I would like to know too."

Originally thought there would be some traps arranged by the Virgin Mary in the school, but now it seems that this is not a phenomenon only aimed at himself.

Who is making trouble?

Due to the chaos of space, they spent a lot of effort to come to the third floor.

However, as soon as he stepped on the stairs, a spell hit them from the thick fog.

It was actually a Killing Curse.

The green light startled the three of Murphy, but a crow suddenly flew out from behind Murphy, and then it turned into a green lightning bolt, hitting the spell.

With a bang, the crow exploded into an electric light, but it restored to the appearance of a feather in mid-air and returned to his back.

After using the Crow Array antenna as an Avada cannon several times, some of the Lightning Crows seemed to be stained with Avada's spell energy, manifested in appearance, their wings were often burning with a green phosphorus fire, and their eyes also turned from pitch black to emerald green.

This part of the lightning turned into green, different from ordinary lightning, and had a certain instant-kill effect.

In the energy form, they can also be immune to Avada's damage, just right for blocking death spells.

The explosion pushed away part of the thick fog, and Murphy and the others saw the person behind the thick fog.

A young man wearing a Slytherin school uniform stood there, tall and thin, and the school uniform he was wearing looked a bit ill-fitting.

Seeing his face, Murphy was shocked. "It's you?"

Lucas was even more shocked than him. "How is it possible? Without the Sorcerer's Stone, who helped you resurrect..."

The young man also looked at Lucas. "You... who are you? Whose body did you use? No, it's not... then what happened to the resurrection?"

Standing in front of the three was Tom Riddle, an eighteen-year-old Tom.

He was tall and thin, with a handsome face, similar to the sixteen-year-old appearance Murphy had seen in the diary, but more mature.

"Come here, Tom." That eighteen-year-old Voldemort said to Lucas. "Although I don't know what happened to you, you should come to my side."

Murphy stepped forward and blocked in front of Lucas. "Sorry, she is my person now, can the predecessor disappear obediently?"

He didn't really understand what happened, but the other party was Voldemort, and he was blocking the way, so there was nothing to hesitate about what to do.

The next moment he pounced, and the moment the other party just supported the Shield Charm, he raised his wrist, and the area Levitation Charm floated the other party's body, making his magic power unstable for a moment.

Voldemort's Shield Charm was not broken, but Murphy seized the moment when his spell wavered, reached out a hand, and passed through the Shield Charm.

His hand speed was not fast when breaking through the Shield Charm, so it was not regarded as an attack, and the spell was almost unimpeded. His hand reached in directly, grabbed the other party's neck, and then squeezed hard.

Accompanied by a terrible sound of bone cracking and a clucking sound like a chicken being pinched by the neck, Voldemort's head hung to one side, and at the same time, countless electric lights shot out from Murphy's hand, some of which had emerald green colors.

But in an instant, the human body in his hand turned into a charred corpse emitting smoke.

This age of Voldemort is still too tender, his combat power is about the level of a Snape, and he is still some distance from Murphy's current level, and he might not even be able to beat the current Lucas.

Murphy then flipped through the charred corpse and did not find a Horcrux on him. This guy seems to be a cautious type, and the Horcrux will not be carried with him.

And this guy died so easily, which gave Murphy a premonition in his heart that this would probably not be the last Voldemort he saw today.

Sure enough, after letting Lucas open the girls' bathroom on the third floor with Parseltongue to enter the Chamber of Secrets, Murphy saw another figure standing by the pool.

"Voldemort."

The magic color on the other party that was almost the same as the previous Voldemort made it impossible for Murphy to recognize it wrong.

But when the other party turned around and revealed that face, Murphy was still shocked.

The fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy had rough black hair, wore a Gryffindor school uniform, and a pair of scarlet eyes looked at him behind the lenses.

"Oh, Professor Murphy." Harry Potter grinned, revealing a mocking smile.

"Long time no see."
