Chapter 135 Armor
Over time, the effects of the spell will wear off.
Only a very small amount of magic exists that can withstand the test of time.
The Deathly Hallows, the Curse in the Egyptian Tombs, the Pensieve, the Sorting Hat... and Hogwarts Castle.
But obviously, the first test in the giant snake statue is not included.
After the magic gradually failed, the female ghost successfully escaped from here, leaving only the dividing line that had lost its warning function, and the potion ingredients and utensils that were damaged and could no longer be used.
"Doesn't this mean that this potion preparation room has completely become a decoration?"
After being shocked, Snape said doubtfully: "After all, compared to the magic here, these ingredients will definitely not be preserved for too long."
"Because we can go back."
Karan had a matter-of-fact expression on his face. He smiled at Snape and said, "And even without these potion ingredients, the people here may not be able to successfully prepare the laughter potion. Then we can't stay here all the time." , you have to go back and make more preparations.”
"Whether it's Slytherin or Gryffindor, judging from the location they built, they never had any intention of preventing us from leaving."
"Uh." Snape suddenly had a choked expression on his face, and his thin, yellow face turned red with embarrassment.
Karan couldn't help but smile.
"Let's go. It seems that we are quite lucky. We have successfully passed the first level before discovering this place."
He took the lead towards another wooden door.
"Let's go and see what the second level is."
at the same time.
In the lion statue on the other side, James and Sirius also came to the first wooden door.
The wooden door was tightly closed. After James cast an unlocking spell, the wooden door was easily opened.
The room behind the door is not as cold as the one inside the giant snake, but has blazing flames floating in the air. This aspect looks no different from the hall.
The layout of the room is somewhat similar to a wide corridor, with a thick carpet on the floor that reaches to the other side of the room, but it is also covered with dust.
On the side near the entrance, there is a weapons rack with two thin long swords hanging on it. The sword blades are flashing with cold light and they still look sharp.
At the other end of the room, two sets of thin armors were lined up vertically, and the exit was just behind the two sets of armors.
"Is this a duel room?"
James looked around, and when he saw the two long swords, he couldn't help but be a little surprised and said: "There is no trace of dust. Could these be weapons made by goblins?"
"Could it be Gryffindor's sword?"
He couldn't wait to go over and check it out. Sirius asked with interest, "How is it? Is it genuine?"
James picked up the two rapiers and inspected them carefully, but in the end he was a little disappointed and shook his head.
"This can't be true. There is no ruby on it. It can only be regarded as a relic of Gryffindor."
"But it's not bad."
James raised one of the rapiers and turned it back and forth to admire it in the bright flames.
"After all, they are weapons made by goblins, so they still have a lot of collection value."
"Of course, the premise is that we can successfully take them out of Hogwarts without being discovered by others."
The expression on his face was a little excited, and he had already begun to think about a plan in his mind.
Sirius walked over and picked up the other sword. After observing it for a while, he said with interest: "If you like silverware, I have quite a few at home, also made by goblins. .”
"But I still have to remind you, don't forget why we came here, man."
"Oh, right." James immediately put the rapier back and looked at the door on the other side of the room.
"I have to win against that guy at least once!" he said angrily.
The two then walked to the other end of the room. Sirius looked up and down at the two sets of thin armor, and then at James' thin body.
"I guess this is not prepared for us," he said.
"It seems that Gryffindor's judgment was wrong. I didn't expect to find several first-year students here."
When he said this, he subconsciously rubbed the side of his face, where there was now a layer of shallow scars.
"Something seems wrong..."
James on the side found that after casting the unlocking spell several times, the wooden door was not opened so easily this time.
"Could it be that it's not locked at all?" Sirius said as he reached out to push the door open, but he was suddenly pushed open by James!
"careful!"
Following James's shouting, Sirius suddenly felt a gust of cool wind blowing in front of him.
A few of the hair on his forehead also broke off.
A pair of armor was standing in front of him, and the long sword in his hand cut deeply into the thick carpet.
The other armor also raised its weapon silently, apparently planning to attack.
They came alive.
"Are you kidding me?"
Sirius yelled and backed away, and he immediately pointed his wand at the armor in front of him.
"There are many obstacles!"
The movement of the armor suddenly stopped, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the armor took another difficult step forward, and the sword swung at him again.
Sirius quickly dodged and exclaimed: "Damn it, these tin cans can resist spells!"
James was also running back in panic.
"What is going on?" he shouted. "Does Gryffindor want to kill us? Kill one of his own students?"
The two of them cast obstacle spells from time to time, slowing down the progress of the two pieces of armor.
"Expelliarmus!"
James had an idea, and he suddenly cast a disarming spell, and the long sword in the armor's hand suddenly trembled.
"It works, use the disarming spell!" He said with surprise and joy.
Sirius quickly came to his senses. He and James pointed their wands at the armor closest to them and shouted: "Expelliarmus!"
"Expelliarmus!"
Luck seemed to be on their side at last, and the sword in the armor's hand flew out.It didn't take long before the other armored hand also had no weapons in it.
However, in the next process, the two pieces of armor resisted the obstacle and petrification spells they shot, and they slowly picked up the two long swords again.
The two were immediately dumbfounded.
"What should I do? The coma spell doesn't work on them."
James said with his eyes widened. He could not have imagined that they would encounter such a difficult test just in the first level. This was simply not something they could handle.
These armors also maintain special protective magic. Whether it is magic spells or transformation spells, they will not have much impact on them. They can only hinder them for a while.
Sirius anxiously and helplessly retreated to the entrance. He glanced at the wooden door and glanced at the weapon rack again from the corner of his eye.
"Raciler!"
He suddenly shouted: "Hurry up and pick up those two thin swords!"
