Chapter 688: Hogwarts Learning Panel Chapter 293

Now looking at it up close, the green light seemed much brighter.

They saw the green light coming from a stone basin similar to a Pensieve, with a base underneath.

Sean subconsciously walked close to the stone basin quickly, while Dumbledore followed behind.

They stood side by side, looking into the stone basin. It was filled with emerald-green liquid, emitting shimmering phosphorescence.

"It seems we need to do something?"

Dumbledore appeared relaxed.

At the same time, he moved his hand toward the liquid.

He quickly cast some magic around the liquid.

Sean recorded all these spells.

"Oh—a liquid. You can't reach into it, you can't separate it, scoop it dry, or drain it, nor can you use a Vanishing Spell to make it disappear, use magic to transform it, or change its nature in any other way."

Dumbledore seemed absent-mindedly to raise his wand again, rotating it in the air, and conjured a tall crystal wine glass in his hand.

"I can only reach this conclusion: this liquid needs to be drunk."

Sean stared at Dumbledore, as if the other party would suddenly drink all the liquid in one gulp.

Dumbledore stared at Sean, guessing that the other party already wanted to do so, but the liquid was in his hands now.

"No need for this, I think you already know.

Without a doubt, this potion will certainly prevent us from obtaining the Horcrux. It will probably paralyze the wizard, make the wizard forget the purpose of coming here, make the wizard feel extreme pain, unable to concentrate, or in other ways make the wizard lose the ability."

Dumbledore said gently.

Then he saw obvious refusal in Sean's eyes.

"I must emphasize to you, it is in my hands now, and you can't grab it."

After speaking, he blinked playfully.

"Why can't let..."

Sean asked.

"I am much older than you, Sean, and my value is much less than yours."

Dumbledore said without hesitation.

"Let some animals drink."

Sean finished the interrupted sentence.

Then Dumbledore saw some strong animals walk out of the Wizard's Book.

"Some potions are hallucinogenic; I think maybe they can cancel each other out?"

Sean shook the crystal bottle in his hand.

In fact, this wasn't his guess—Professor Sineipu always said some common potion knowledge when in the dungeon.

Dumbledore was stunned, his gaze then becoming deep:

"Firenze is right; your talent in prophecy is not a bit inferior to other aspects."

Immediately, he cleared the way, letting the group of animals, who had drunk the potion and were floating, drink the liquid in the cup.

Soon the liquid was drunk up, and the animals fell asleep on the ground, except for one warthog that seemed very thirsty, ignoring the water pool Butler Pukey had moved out with magic, and instead gulped down two mouthfuls of lake water.

This made the lake surface no longer smooth as a mirror, but churning violently.

Sean looked up and saw white heads and hands emerging from the pitch-black water everywhere, men's, women's, children's, all with sunken, sightless eyes, floating toward the rock side:

—A large patch of dead bodies appeared in the pitch-black lake water.

And Dumbledore was looking at Sean with great interest.

Sean pulled out his wand the next moment:

"Fire Dragon Wings—"

A huge fire dragon descended from the sky; with Dumbledore watching, Sean could release his magic power without reservation.

The fire dragon grew larger step by step, finally not much different from an ordinary fire dragon; it guarded the shore, spitting dragon flames.

Eliminating the dead bodies was as simple as Dumbledore eating cockroach clusters.

"A new spell?"

Dumbledore's eyes were deep.

"An insignificant modifi..."

Sean commanded the fire dragon.

"Alright alright."

Dumbledore interrupted him.

However, the dead bodies were endless, and Sean felt dizzy after holding on for five seconds.

He had been weakened after all.

"Oh, then I..."

Dumbledore appeared very relaxed.

"Hmm, Will, it's time."

Sean took out the locket, letting Butler Pukey hold his hand.

"Can I take you away?"

Sean asked.

Dumbledore knew that in September of last year, things began to be more and more unexpected.

But his answer was:

"Why not?"

So, after Pukey's Apparition, the cave became silent again.

Thus, after Puke the house-elf Apparated away, the cave fell silent once again.
