Aini has passed the age of a naughty child and has no interest in things like pipe slides.
Even if I had some interest before, after seeing the sticky wall of the tube, I instantly lost the intention to try it.
After clicking on the girl, Aini's body, which was already over 180, suddenly collapsed and transformed into a palm-sized bird, which entered the pipe in a flash.
The pipe was winding and turned dark after a few turns. Fortunately, Ani opened the Eye of True Seeing in time, otherwise he would have hit the dirty pipe wall.
Even though the smell inside is not very strong, the sewer is just a sewer. Don't expect it to be very clean. At least he doesn't want to touch those messy things.
Following the green magic veins all the way down, Aini flew carefully for more than ten minutes. The twisting pipes in front became smooth, and there was a faint whine of air flowing through the holes.
"Fluorescence!"
The little bird still hovering in the air uttered a spell. Even though Ani can see in the dark, he still prefers the perspective of the light.
Under the luminous spell that was fully activated, a light that was not strong but had a very wide range lit up, dispelling the darkness that had lingered in the underground space for an unknown length of time.
"Clean up!"
Aini cleared a clean ground under his feet, then recovered his body and landed firmly on the ground.
What you can see is a long corridor made of granite, which is very common in the Scottish Highlands. There is no trace of artificial carving on the smooth and thick surface. It can be seen that the layout is upright and the pores are arranged in an orderly manner at the top.
But it also shows that it is not natural, which makes people sigh at the power of magic.
Aini swung his wand as he moved forward. Thanks to the ingeniously constructed air holes, even if there have been few visitors for thousands of years, this underground corridor does not seem stuffy, but it is inevitably a bit mouldy.
However, as he walked along, all the moss marks and debris in the corridor disappeared, restoring its original appearance when it was first built.
Although you have to go through the sewer pipe to enter, there is no sewage here. When you came here, Aini found that the pipe had been rising several times. Now I think it is to prevent sewage from flowing down.
Therefore, most of the stains on the ground are composed of dust, moss and a small amount of animal feces. Others are just the bones of small animals. They have been cleaned and the smell is not very strong.
By the time Aini turned a few corners and reached the stone wall at the end, the corridor had been swept clean. In his sight, various magic patterns surrounded the magic veins, emitting a green light, bringing
An unspeakable temptation.
I really want to see it...
Ani looked back with nostalgia. If Hermione hadn't been waiting up there, he would have almost given up on exploring and stayed here to analyze the runes.
The stone walls are carved with exquisite patterns, and the style is completely different from that of the corridor. Two lifelike little snakes are intertwined, and their eyes made of emeralds are vividly looking at the way they came, as if they are waiting for their owners.
"What a delicate puppet."
Aini sighed in admiration, and suddenly the image of Harry standing in front of the door appeared in his mind.
If you are not careful, great wizards like Minerva and Filius may fall into the trap of these two little snakes. Harry actually just regarded them as decorations, but he didn't know that if there was an error in the verification,
Any one of them being activated is enough to take him away.
They are also alchemical creations, and the runes appearing on the two little snakes are enough to make those big Minerva babies on the ground cry!
Ani reaches out to the rune that represents "switch" and will force the door open like in the bathroom.
But when his fingers touched the halo emanating from the runes, he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart, and unconsciously cast his gaze on a blurry field in the second row.
Although due to his insufficient rank, his current Eye of True Seeing is not enough to reveal the deeper runes, but his usually low sense of presence was frantically warning him, immediately giving up Aini's idea of testing. p>
Just kidding, he is not an iron-headed boy and has no habit of spinning himself to death.
But Aini doesn't have a headache, but he has a headache.
Without him, the supply of magic power swallowed up behind the stone wall is too much.
You must know that Hogwarts occupies the largest magic node in the UK, and Slytherin has the largest share, almost two-fifths.
According to the observation of the Eye of True Sight, the magic flowing into the stone wall accounts for at least half of Slytherin's share.
Even though Aini's magic power far exceeds that of his peers, and is even considered the top batch among adult wizards, it is still far from being comparable to 10% of the total amount of large magic nodes.
Now he probably knows why his spiritual sense made a crazy warning just now - if the protective barrier on the stone wall does not exist independently, but is just part of the large barrier in the secret room, it would require too much magic power to change the way it operates. p>
I'm afraid that as soon as Aini plucked his finger down, the magic power in his body would be completely drained, and then his life and soul would be consumed.
Thinking of this, a layer of fine beads of sweat broke out on his forehead. During this period of time, his potential has been advanced, and things have been smooth sailing, and he feels a little drifting.
This experience is undoubtedly a lesson. With his current situation, he doesn't need to be too strict, but he can't be too wasteful.
Ani looked at the stone wall in front of him and the corridor behind him. No matter in terms of material, architectural style or arrangement of magic patterns, there was a huge difference between the two. It was obvious that they were not made by one person.
Although the layout of the corridor is sophisticated, it is still lacking in the depiction of magic patterns, and the decoration of the walls and ceiling also reveals a strong Tudor style.
According to school history, there was once a descendant of the Gaunt family who repaired the sewer system of Hogwarts. It seems that the entrance to the bathroom, the long water pipe and the corridor connecting the secret room were all his work. Whether it is the arrangement of magic patterns on the stone wall, the alchemy techniques or the surface decoration, it is all perfect in Aini's opinion, at least with his current level of magic, he cannot think of a way to optimize it.
If the level of the Gaunt family is considered to be at the higher level among amateurs, then the author of Stonewall is at the top level among professionals. Considering the age of the exquisite decorations on the walls, Aini believes that these were written by Slytherin himself.
.
That was one of the greatest wizards at that time!
And the place in front of us is probably the place of inheritance he left behind. It’s very distressing if you can see it but can’t get in!
But...
Aini turned around and walked back, carefully observing the magic veins in the corridor along the way.
It is difficult for him to change Slytherin's design, but this Gaunt family...
Although Slytherin's reserved handwriting almost made Aini miserable, who made him a tolerant and kind-hearted person?
I almost suffered a loss, so I'd better not let little Tom come here, and let him help design a less dangerous secret room. I hope that when a certain remnant soul walks out of the notebook, he will like my gift.
I look forward to meeting you this time, Mr. Tom Marvolo Riddle.
