439 Another world about to be destroyed
Lily flew in the dark tunnel, following the light group not far ahead. She firmly grasped Meadows' arm with both hands, and was still thinking about the identity of the previous "ghost"——
Merlin...could that really be Merlin?
Everything that just happened was like a dream. Lily never thought that she would be able to see this legendary wizard with her own eyes, let alone that he could survive to this day - but that is wrong. Lily could not be sure whether Merlin Still alive, after all, according to Merlin's story, Lily only relied on her "bravery" to activate a mark left by him - that is, the words "Do Not Disturb the Sleeping Dragon" left by the school motivator in the Colossus's head.
"It's a pity that you didn't get to see this with your own eyes, Professor."
Lily murmured to the unconscious Meadows: "And Karan, when he hears this, I don't know how envious he will be of me."
In Lily's eyes, these two people were both extreme about magic, and they definitely wanted to see Merlin in person more than she did.
Lily shook her head, throwing away the weird thoughts in her mind, and quickly focused all her thoughts on the current situation.
According to Merlin, Lily was in the world on the other side of the altar - an illusory world that was generated by the divination of Sybil's third eye sealed by the centaurs.
Moreover, Merlin also said that this is a world that is about to be destroyed.
Lily hasn't been able to see the scene outside the secret room yet, but she is still a little worried that this will be the last time in the world of black sun.
In addition, she was even more worried about how she would leave the secret room.
Although there was a light group in front of her to guide her, Lily didn't know where it would lead her - after all, the entrance to the secret room in the Forbidden Forest had been blocked by the Prewett brothers, and she didn't have a wand, even if she could pull her out of thin air. Flying cannot penetrate thick soil...
Should she still be asked to dig it out bit by bit with her own hands?
She flew over the spot where the basilisk's great molted skin once stood, now empty.Because this was a world divined based on the third eye, Lily knew that the shed skin had long been taken away by the former Karan and Gespad.
Then the light ball led Lily around a corner and came to a water pipe that could accommodate a person's height, and got in at once.
Lily hesitated for a moment, and after realizing that she had no choice, she had no choice but to take Meadows with her and get into the water pipe.
The road ahead is twists and turns, with seven twists and turns, and the slope is very steep all the way up.
With the light emitted by the light group, Lily could always find other pipe openings from time to time. She also noticed that the light group was always flying upward.
Where is this taking her?
Are there other entrances to the secret room?
After flying for an unknown amount of time, the light ball stopped in front of a thick wall.
Lily stepped forward and knocked lightly on the stone wall, but found that she couldn't penetrate it by herself.
She had no choice but to turn her head and look at the light group.
It happened that at this moment, Guan Tuan suddenly passed through the wall in Lily's sight and disappeared.
Lily panicked for a second, but then she noticed that the wall in front of her bloomed with a dazzling light, and then disappeared, revealing a slightly familiar...bathroom?
Lily flew to the bathroom with a puzzled face. She couldn't figure out how Merlin did this, and how he carved such an exit in the bathroom——
It wasn't until Lily flew quietly outside the bathroom that she discovered that it turned out to be the abandoned bathroom on the second floor. She turned around and looked at the place where she had just come out. She remembered that there was a wall there that was constantly broken and kept coming back. The restored wall - the strangeness here is said to be related to Meadows' late-blooming talent.
"If you don't understand it, just don't think about it."
Lily soon realized with joy that she was back at Hogwarts Castle. Even though the world was in ruins, Hogwarts always gave her a sense of security.
I just don’t know what destruction Merlin is referring to?
The corridor was quiet and empty.
According to the divination of the third eye, this place is unknown how many years after her time, that is, it can only happen in the future.
Lily found that this didn't seem to be a dark world - because there was light, not darkness.
However, the light reflected from the window was red, and Lily felt that the air around her was a little hot. After a while, the clothes on her body gradually dried and were soaked with sweat.
Lily carefully flew towards the window closest to her, wanting to see what it looked like outside——
But when she saw what was happening outside the window with her own eyes——
"How could...oh my god..."
-------------
After entering the altar, Karan soon discovered that he seemed to be thinking too much. The invisibility cloak was of no use and no one was waiting for them on the other side of the altar.
The magic bicycle suddenly rushed into a lake. Karan didn't even know where the lake came from, and he didn't have time to remind the other two people. Fortunately, his reaction was quick enough, and Remus was choked. He kept casting head-soaking spells on him, which prevented several people from suffocating to death as soon as they entered the altar.
The heads of the three people became comically wider under the bubbles, and they were unable to talk underwater.
Karan originally wanted to ride his magic bicycle directly upstream to the lake, and then think about why the Forbidden Forest was flooded - but Gespard suddenly pointed directly in front of them, signaling Karan to ride directly that way.
It was also at this time that Karan realized that this world no longer seemed to be the world of the Black Sun - the entire illusion had been turned upside down, and it was unknown what kind of destruction it was in.
Moreover, where Gespard pointed, there was a large red light flashing, which was completely different from the dimness of the black sun world.
Karan breathed a sigh of relief, finally no longer having to face that large group of terrifying taboos.Then he didn't hesitate for long before he listened to Gaspard's suggestion and rode slowly at the bottom of the lake.
But Gespard suddenly turned around, and he twisted the right handlebar with his palm - this magic bicycle seemed to have some unknown air power. Karan saw that the wheels under him suddenly turned into leaves. shape, the backrest behind Remus also transformed into a small propeller.
good guy...
Although he didn’t understand why Gaspard wanted to add an underwater riding function to the magic bicycle, Karan silently extended his thumb, and Gaspard calmly pushed up his glasses.
In this way, the three of them were much faster, and they swam towards the red light on the other side of the lake bottom.At the same time, the three of them were silently observing the sudden appearance of the lake - Karan finally understood why there was water on the altar in the original world. I am afraid it all seeped out from here.
But the strange thing is that they were unable to find any swimming fish at the bottom of the lake. There were no aquatic plants growing on the bottom of the lake. Instead, they saw a few low shrubs that were about to decay.
Karan carefully identified these shrubs and found that they were not the elder trees in the Black Sun World, but just ordinary trees.
This made him feel relieved but also confused - where did this lake come from?Forbidden lake?Or Black Lake?
Gradually, the magic bicycle was almost swimming to the place where the red light was. It seemed to be close at hand, but also vaguely far away... It was like it was too far away to exceed the capacity of the lake - how could this be?
With a "pop" sound, the three people suddenly swam out of the water. They took a big breath, but all they breathed in was the air with a burning smell, which simply made their lungs burn——
fire.
In front of them was a fire that the three of them had never seen before. The entire Forbidden Forest was burning wantonly. The fire reflected the entire sky, and everything turned into a bright and terrifying red!
There are no taboos here, but there are a large group of beasts made of fire - salamanders, chimera beasts, and fire dragons. They rise, fall, and rise again - this is more terrifying than the fire rising into the sky. Looking from a distance, I don't know how many such beasts are being born.
"Li Huo..."
Karan murmured in disbelief. He never thought that one day the prophecy of death would come true - the fire would burn throughout the world, purifying everything.
This is a world in the midst of destruction.
"And rain."
Gaspard said suddenly, pointing to the sky, where it was raining lightly.
This seems to be just ordinary rain, but it is enough to slow down the burning of the fierce fire. It seems to have some special magical ability - and it seems that it is fortunately because of this rain that the beast in the fierce fire is not targeted. The three people who suddenly appeared were all roaring towards the sky, and from time to time they would rush directly into the blood-red clouds, one after another, causing the sky to burst out with brief flashes of light, but never flew out again.
This is a battle between fire and rain.
But several people could see that the rain was not enough to extinguish all the fires, but even just slowing it down was enough to render them speechless - what kind of powerful wizard could do this.
"Look at this again!"
Remus suddenly pointed behind several people and said.
They finally intuitively saw the so-called "lake". It was more like a condensed magical rainwater, or like the bottom of a drop of water. There was no edge surrounded by earth and rocks, but it gathered together and never dispersed.
"The rain protected the altar from being completely destroyed by the fire."
Karan's heart moved and he expressed this guess.
Gaspard nodded in agreement. He turned the handle of the bicycle again and turned the magic bicycle into its original shape. Then he asked, "But in this case, can you successfully find Lily?"
Rescue became a problem.Surrounded by the fierce fire, the wet footprints around them had long been evaporated. They could not find Bock's footprints, and they had no way of knowing where the other party was...
"Look at it!"
Just when his heart became more and more anxious, Karan suddenly pointed to the sky in the distance: "There...it seems like someone is fighting!"
On the other side of the sky, there were also beasts transformed from fierce fire soaring into the sky, but they were always shot down inexplicably in mid-air. Moreover, they also saw some special flashes - there was no mistaking them, they were magic spells. The light!
In this world that is about to be destroyed, there are survivors!
"Come on!"
Karan immediately rode his magic bicycle and flew into the air to avoid the fiery beast on the ground: "Bock might be there too!"
"As long as we find him, we can find Lily!"
--------------
In Hogwarts Castle, after witnessing the hell-like scene outside the window, Lily was stunned for a while. She watched helplessly as a ferocious fire dragon transformed from Li Huo flew into the sky, got into the thick clouds, and then It exploded into a fading flash of light.
"This world...this world..."
Lily finally came to her senses, and she immediately took Meadows and flew towards the stairs - this was completely her subconscious reaction. In front of countless beasts on the earth, there was no way she could take Meadows through. Forbidden Forest, back near the altar, not to mention she didn't even have a wand in her hand.
This was really too risky, and the only thing Lily could think of was to stand higher up so that she could be further away from Li Huo.
Fortunately, Hogwarts Castle was not affected by the fire, allowing Lily to fly to the eighth floor unharmed. Above that are places like the Owlery, which may not be as safe as this corridor——
Until an inadvertent glance, Lily suddenly noticed something strange in the empty corridor - the stone beast in front of the principal's office turned into fragments.
She flew over quietly and found that the door in front of the spiral staircase was open.As she flew into the stairs and gradually approached the principal's office at the end, she suddenly heard a burst of anxious self-talk——
"Damn it! Where is the mechanism? Why can't it be opened?!"
It's Bock's voice!
Lily heard it immediately.
She suppressed her panic and retreated quietly. Without a wand, there was no way she could subdue Bock, otherwise she would not be caught by Bock.
But after a while, Lily suddenly thought of an idea.
At the same time, in the principal's office, Bock was standing in front of the cabinet behind the desk and chair. He kept pressing his palms everywhere, as if looking for something.
The box bearing the name Peverell lay at his feet, never leaving it.
"time is limited......."
Bock said to himself with an ugly face. He pressed hard on a certain location in the cabinet and cursed angrily in a low voice: "How could it fail? Isn't it right here? Why can't it be opened?!"
At this moment, he suddenly turned his head and hid, as if there were eyes behind his back.
"who?!"
It's Lily.
She flew back, still holding a lot of open bottles of medicine in her hand. The bottle of living hell potion she just threw out with her own hands.
"It's actually you!"
Shocked with a hint of anger, Burke immediately picked up his wand and began to fight back.Lily used her ability to fly to avoid them all. Without saying a word, she just threw various negative potions at Bock——
These potions were all made by Lily herself and placed in the potion preparation room behind the mirror on the fifth floor. They were originally prepared for Karan's previous plans and also had Lily's intention of writing a book on potions in the future.
Lily didn't expect that she would actually discover these potions. Logically speaking, they couldn't be stored for too long, only a little more than a year at most.
This also gave Lily a sudden terrible thought——
The destruction in this illusory world, the sheets of fierce fire, and the terrifying flame beasts...
Perhaps, it should have happened soon.
This is just the near future in the original world.
It’s just a prediction that may be less than a year away!
