The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 108 Entering the Chamber of Secrets
At the end of the Christmas dinner, Ryan had to admit that although his mother's cooking was delicious, house elves were better at craftsmanship than humans.At least the food at such an important banquet is better than what I once went to a Michelin-starred restaurant with my parents.

After leaving the hall, Ryan quickly returned to his dormitory, read a book for half an hour, went to bed, and set the alarm clock for two o'clock in the morning.Fortunately, the roommates are all home for the holidays, and the alarm clock will not disturb others.

After going to bed, Ryan couldn't fall asleep due to excitement, but fortunately, he is now habitually running the Maoshan Shangqingxin method before going to bed.After a week of running, he finally fell into a deep sleep.

At two o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang on time.Ryan got up from the bed and put on the set of assassin equipment on his body. After checking that everything was in place, he left the bedroom in his school uniform robe.

After leaving the common room, Ryan found that Hogwarts at Christmas was exceptionally quiet.It may be that most of the students are not in school, and the students who stay in school are very tired from playing.It was quiet in the corridor, and there was no one there.

After successfully arriving at Myrtle's bathroom, Ryan found that Myrtle was not here, probably because she went somewhere to play on Christmas.At Nick's last Halloween party, he'd learned that ghosts have their own entertainment, too.

Ryan walked to the sink and confirmed that there was indeed a faucet that wouldn't flow, with a snake embossed on the side.

This is it. In the previous life, I read the official website and said that the transformation of Hogwarts in the Victorian era was participated by members of the Gaunt family. He changed the entrance to the chamber of secrets to the current location and used the sink as a cover.Now it seems that this should be true. After all, it is impossible for flush toilets and faucets to exist when the school was first established, and even if Slytherin is a dark wizard, he would not be so perverted as to set up a secret room entrance in the women's toilet.This can only be modified by later generations.

Fortunately, in the world of "Mr. Zombie", he obtained the inheritance of snake language, and Ryan told the sink to open it in snake language.The faucet emitted a dazzling white light and began to spin rapidly.Then, the pool moved.

Eventually the pool disappeared from view, revealing a length of pipe thick enough for a grown man to slip through.

After casting himself a shock-absorbing charm, Lane burrowed into the tube.The shock absorbing spell is one of Ryan's most proficient spells. After all, if you use it well, you can make a leap of faith.

After jumping off the pipe, Lane felt as if he had rushed into a dirty, dark and endless pipe.He could see many pipes branching out in all directions, but none as wide as the one he was in now.This pipe is twists and turns, with seven windings and eight windings, and the slope is very steep all the way down.

And these twists and turns made Ryan bump into corners from time to time, and he felt that he might have gone deep underground.

Finally, the pipeline became horizontal again, and with the help of the shock-absorbing spell, Ryan stood firmly at the exit of the pipeline.Here is a huge stone tunnel, the floor is covered with silt.Feeling the damp environment around him, he felt that he might be under the black lake now.

In the silence of the tunnel, Ryan took out a lantern plant to illuminate his way.There is no other sound at all in this place, except for the occasional clicking sound when you step on something under your feet.

Ryan brought the lantern plant close to the ground and found that the ground was full of small animal bones.But this should not be left over from the basilisk.After all, considering the size of the basilisk, the energy gained from eating this small animal is not as large as the energy consumed when hunting it down.

After turning a corner, Ryan found a long strip object six or seven meters long on the ground, which stopped there motionless.After slowly getting closer, he found that it was a pair of very bright green snake skin.It was obvious at a glance that it should be a venomous snake.

The snake's skin was coiled on the ground, and it looked like the snake had been shedding its skin for some time.In such a humid and stagnant environment, there was actually a thin layer of ash on the snake's skin.

Naturally, such good things cannot be let go. Ryan opened the door of the Wanjie grocery store and put the snake skin in.Fortunately, this thing is not heavy.

After collecting the snake skin, Ryan continued to move forward.The road ahead was winding, and he could only follow the road and turn one after another.I have to say that the designer of this tunnel is a master of psychology, because the tortuous tunnel in this dark environment will make people walking here always worry that there will be monsters waiting for you when you turn the corner.

After turning another corner, the front is finally no longer the same black tunnel.A wall stood at the end of the tunnel, carved with two intertwined snakes.Their eyes are made of huge, shiny emeralds.

Ryan went to the wall to observe carefully, and finally found with regret that these emeralds were part of the magic mechanism of this place.So he had to give up his plan to pry gems.

"Open." Ryan said in snake language again.The two snakes separated, and a gaping hole opened in the wall, which grew wider and wider.Finally the wall slowly slid sideways and disappeared.Ryan tidied up his clothes again, threw the robe that hindered his movement into the space bag, and then walked in carefully.

After entering the secret room, Ryan found that it was a long room.After casting a magic detection to confirm that the basilisk hadn't come out, Ryan opened the space door of the Wanjie grocery store and took out the caged rooster kept there.

After getting ready, Ryan began to look at the room.The room has a high ceiling, supported by many stone pillars carved with coiled and entangled serpents, casting shadows on the ground.

This room is not completely dark as imagined, but glowing with a faint green light.Looking along the light source, the top of the secret room is inlaid with many transparent crystals, through which Ryan can see the bottom of the Black Lake.Some underwater fluorescent plants at the bottom of the lake brought light to the secret room through the crystal.

It is a good thing that there is a light source in the secret room. After all, the basilisk can judge the opponent's position through smell and sound, but it is difficult for Ryan to fight with detection methods other than vision.

After walking to the end of the room, Ryan saw a statue as tall as the room itself standing against the wall in front of him.

Looking up, you can see that the statue has an old face, with a sparse beard hanging from the chin to the feet.

Ryan could see the aging and exhaustion of the old Slytherin from this sculpture. It seems that the legend that Slytherin was at odds with the other three founders and ran away angrily after many quarrels was true.At least from this statue, it can be seen that Slytherin was indeed in a bad state in his later years.

But sympathy is all sympathy, Slytherin's little pets have indeed begun to threaten the students of the school.Even killed a student 50 years ago.

As we all know, magical creatures are an indispensable part of the magic world and have an important position in the magic world.Indiscriminate hunting of magical creatures is bad practice.But the cultured creature kills people and crosses that line, which is the main reason why Ryan came here to hunt the basilisk
