Chapter 445 Welcome your own king
"tick"
Water droplets dripped from the dark and damp ceiling, causing ripples in the puddles in the corner.
Ron twisted twice and let out a painful groan. He got up from the ground in confusion, his red hair wet and stuck to his forehead.
This is where?
He looked around at a room made of rough stones. The walls were inlaid with stones that emitted a dim light, providing some negligible light.
There was still water on the uneven ground, and the whole room was cold and dark. In the dim light, he saw his wand lying on the floor not far away.
Magic wand!
Ron hurriedly struggled forward, and just when he stood up, he felt a terrible pain in his ankle. He screamed in pain and fell to the cold ground again.
Slowly crawling forward two steps, holding the wand in his hand, feeling the intimacy of blood connection, Ron's panic calmed down a little.
【Fluorescent flash】
The tip of the wand lit up with a soft light, and Ron sat up. He looked at his ankle and took off his diving socks. Only then did he realize that the ankle was swollen.
Apparently it fell when it just fell.
how so?
One second they were cheering, everyone was shouting happily on the intercom, celebrating that they had found a way out, but the next second, the floor suddenly cracked.
The huge suction force caught everyone off guard and fell directly into the endless abyss.
The seawater hugged them, and Ron only remembered that he seemed to have hit something, and then his vision went dark and he fainted.
He smiled bitterly and touched his head. There was also a lump there, it must have been an impact.
Where is everyone? Where are the others?
By the way, the intercom. Ron felt a little lucky in his heart. Fortunately, he had the intercom. He pressed the intercom skillfully and asked eagerly:
"Harry! Hermione! Neville! Where are you?"
But apart from some strange noises, the intercom also made a rustling sound.
how so?
Ron felt as if his heart had fallen into a bottomless abyss. The surroundings were getting colder and colder, and he couldn't help but tremble.
After trying for a long time, he had to admit the frustrating fact that the intercom was broken.
This discovery plunged Ron's originally stable mood into endless panic again. He sat on the ground, his face pale and a little at a loss.
In the past few years at school, he had become accustomed to looking for friends when he needed to think. Once he lost his friends, Ron felt that he didn't even know what to do next.
After a while, the fear gradually subsided, and the courage of the Weasley family seeped out of their bones bit by bit.
He gritted his teeth and dragged his legs to stand up, raised his wand, and limped toward the door not far away.
There is always something to do.
Neville turned his body lightly, and passed the stone sword that was chopped down with just one step. His body swayed, and his arms were placed on the arms of the statue. Power surged with the huge forward force of the stone.
With a loud bang, the stone man's arms were forcefully twisted off. The red light in its eyes dimmed, and its entire body shook and hit the floor heavily.
Neville frowned. Behind him lay the broken bodies of several stone men. These bulky stone men who could only wield weapons did not pose any threat to Neville.
But where are my friends?
Who would have thought that the floor would suddenly break when they were happy. I'm afraid that was when everyone dispersed.
After pressing the button on the intercom, Neville cautiously did not speak, but gently tapped the intercom a few times with his index finger, making a clicking sound.
What answered him was the rustling noise of the intercom.
There was still no answer, and a trace of gloom flashed between Neville's brows, but it quickly dissipated. He had repeated this action many times.
Just another failure.
He looked at the room in front of him and felt that this was a real maze, with similar rooms and long corridors, and each room could lead to another corridor and room.
Rough stone slabs, a dark and humid environment, and monsters lurking everywhere.
Pursing his lips, Neville's mood gradually calmed down. The suffering in the first twelve years of his life was not without rewards. At least Neville felt that there were few things that he could no longer accept.
After leaving his direction and signature on the wall with his wand, Neville gathered his mood and once again embarked on an unknown journey.
[Burning flames]!
Hermione's wand spurted out bright, blazing fire, and the humanoid monster with pale skin and gray eyes in front of her was instantly ignited into a huge torch.
It screamed strangely and struggled to retreat, but the flames burned more and more vigorously.
Hermione's little face was illuminated by the firelight. She was panting and took this opportunity to take a breath. How could there be an Inferi here?
He took out the sealed parchment and charcoal from his pocket, and sketched his route map on it by the light of the fire.
Because of the movements of the Inferi, the fire kept flickering on and off. The irritable little witch impatiently pulled out her wand to immobilize the Inferi. The audience couldn't help but tremble.
No, there's no pattern, Hermione's delicate eyebrows knitted together.
She pressed the intercom again without giving up and tapped it gently with her index finger.
After a while, Hermione sighed. The Inferi was finally burned out, leaving only a pool of disgusting black ash. She left a mark on the wall with her wand and set off towards the unknown again.
"Ex~pecto—— Patronum"
Dazzling stars burst out from the tip of Harry's wand like morning light.
A deer with big antlers walked gracefully out of the silver light.
It lowered its head and nuzzled Harry's head affectionately.
Harry also pressed the deer's forehead and said softly:
"Go ahead and explore the road, look for my friends, and if you find them, bring them here."
The big-horned deer nodded and jumped lightly. Every time it jumped, little ripples of silver light were produced under its feet. In just a few leaps, it disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Harry let out a sigh of relief and used his wand to dry his clothes. After looking around for a while, he found a relatively dry place and tried to calm down the panic in his heart.
All that's left to do is wait.
"Ding"
Malfoy flicked up a gold galleons. The gold rolled through the air with a dazzling luster and landed on the ground with a crisp sound.
After bouncing a few times, he lay on the ground very eye-catching, and neatly left a direction mark with his wand next to Garen.
Hmm. Even if no one else noticed, Weasley would definitely see Garleon.
Malfoy looked back and saw that in every room and intersection he passed, there was a yellow-orange Gold Galleons lying on it.
There was a hint of disdain in the smile, and I couldn't believe it. How could the rooms and intersections here cost more than my Galleons?
As a team logistics manager and warehouse who carries a small satchel with him, he can even light a fire for himself when he is alone, put on a set of comfortable clothes, and take out a flashlight to illuminate himself The way forward.
There was still no response from the intercom, so it was probably broken.
Let’s find our teammates first and then talk about it.
Malfoy had a hunch that the ruins above were just a cover, the real second level.
It's here!
Cedric held a bubble spell on his head and walked cautiously in the dim aisle. Although there was no water here, he was the oldest and the most stable person in the team.
The wand has a faint light, which is not bright, because too bright a light may irritate something.
His left hand kept pressing on the intercom, tapping it gently with his index finger every once in a while.
Although the only response he received was a rustling sound, he was not discouraged.
He has always been patient.
Suddenly, a silver light seemed to light up at the corner of the distant passage. He immediately extinguished his wand, crouched on the ground, and watched carefully.
Then he saw a large-antlered deer made of silver light walking towards him with elegant steps. The light seemed to dispel fear and bring warmth.
Cedric breathed a long sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face. He stood up straight and strode forward.
"Harry!"
The crowd went crazy, and from the moment the Hogwarts Warriors woke up underground, everyone was doing an incredible job.
They did not sit still and wait for death. Even if they were in an absolute predicament, they were still trying to get out of trouble in their own ways.
Especially when Harry's patron saint appeared, the audience burst into warm applause and cheers.
Another physical guardian angel! And it seems that activation is not far away!
Ludo Bagman looked at the wonderful performance of the local players and narrowed his eyes with laughter:
"Amazing! Amazing Hogwarts Warriors! Their performance is beyond expectations.
This shows that the results in the first round are not luck, they have the strength! "
Only Da Silva felt that something was wrong with the world. The originally rare patron saint was now like a free potato.
Or maybe a thought suddenly popped up in his mind that made him a little frightened. Are the students at Hogwarts really so good?
Is the gap between Castrobsher and Hogwarts so big?
The performance of the Hogwarts Warriors has been outstanding from beginning to end, compared to their own students.
"It looks like Zhang is No. 1 again - he has come out."
Dumbledore's voice suddenly came to his ears. Da Silva restrained his emotions and looked at the curtain.
Sure enough, without Dumbledore's elaborate traps, the maze of ruins on the ground alone would not be an obstacle to Zhang Xiao.
The little wizard has arrived at the other end of the square, only one step away from the end.
Zhang Xiao looked at the scene in front of him. This place was completely different from the buildings he had seen. The huge square seemed to be some kind of dividing line.
In front of him stood a majestic and magnificent building complex. It was so high up that one had to step on one step after another to get close to it, as if it were a holy place where the gods lived in mythology.
A huge statue is at the front of the building. The statue is bare-chested, with almost perfect muscle lines. It holds a huge trident in its hand. Even after thousands of years, the gorgeous gems inlaid on the trident are still there. The dark sea floor shone with a dizzying and intoxicating light.
What caught Zhang Xiao's attention the most was the horse he was riding. This horse was also extremely expressive, like a living creature. It raised its front hooves while neighing, but its back half turned into something like water.
What's this?
Water horse?
At this moment, the golden egg in the Qiankun bag suddenly flew out on its own, the projection appeared, a red dot appeared on the ground, and the map on the projection also slowly rotated to adjust the perspective.
At the same time, something like a little man appeared on the edge of the map.
Zhang Xiao had a realization in his heart. It seemed that he had arrived at the place shown on the map, and the red dot was his goal.
I looked around at the buildings in front of me. Next to the gorgeous palace was a tall bell tower. Behind the palace was a tall lighthouse, as well as other buildings similar to temples.
This is the core of the city, and in front of the square is the living and commercial area. The warriors' goals are all here.
Zhang Xiao exerted a little force on his feet and swam up the stairs.
The closer you get, the more you can feel the prosperity and prosperity here.
The water flow trembled, and the aurora-like colored light above the palace shone on the golden roof of the palace, flashing with misty light, as if the entire palace was enveloped in a layer of mysterious brilliance.
Time seemed to be frozen in this gorgeous palace. What surprised Zhang Xiao was that the seaweed and silt that had previously covered the building no longer existed here.
It's brand new and looks like it's been cleaned every day.
He became slightly nervous, mainly because he didn't know what weird things Dumbledore would come up with as a test for the third level.
In short, there is nothing wrong with being careful. Walking into the palace with such a mood, your eyes suddenly opened up. It was obviously the dark seabed, but it was still bright here. What you saw was the spacious and bright hall.
The towering vaulted ceilings were painted with exquisite murals, depicting some incomprehensible things. Zhang Xiao looked at them and felt that they were a bit like myths.
The floor of the hall is covered with smooth marble, reflecting soft light.
Delicate sculptures and ornate tapestries are dotted throughout, demonstrating the extraordinary taste of the palace.
After crossing the front hall, he finally came to the main hall. At a glance, he saw the end of the main hall, the golden throne standing on a high platform.
It's just that his expression was a little bitter, because the empty main hall was densely packed with 'soldiers'. Just looking at their exquisite and complicated armors and the weapons in their hands, one could tell that they were completely different from the skeleton soldiers he had encountered before. They are not of the same level.
Praetorian Guards! Guard the king's royal guards!
More importantly, there was no movement at all from the lightning strike wooden wand.
Isn't it an evil thing similar to a skeleton soldier? How can we fight this!
In a daze, Zhang Xiao thought he had arrived at the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit No. 1!
Looking at it roughly, the number is definitely over a thousand.
His arrival seemed to trigger some mechanism, and the sculpture-like soldiers opened their eyes, revealing a scarlet light.
At this moment, Zhang Xiao felt that the back of his hand was frighteningly hot. The runes he had obtained by defeating the stone statue shined brightly, suddenly detached and floated in the water.
"Boom!"
The Imperial Guards suddenly took a step forward in order. They raised their heads and looked at Rune, then at Zhang Xiao.
He suddenly drew his weapon and knelt down on one knee with his sword in hand, as if to welcome his king.

I forgot to mention it yesterday. The person who rented the haunted house in Japan was a very close author friend. We were all in a small group, the one who wrote the Dragon Clan fanfic. Those were all told by him.
