Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way

Harry quickly returned to the position where he turned out of the castle, and entered the castle with the help of the spider thread.

The previously released curse is still continuing to position Harley, guiding the direction of the unknown demigod.

Harry sneaked silently. It was past two o'clock in the morning, and even Filch, the administrator in charge of the night patrol, had already returned to his office.

The further Harry walked, the more he felt that the direction was wrong. The location of the demigod seems to be on the fourth floor.

If Harry remembers correctly, there seems to be a restricted area in that direction, a restricted area that Professor Dumbledore banned students from going to at the opening dinner.

Of course, this seems to have inspired a rebellious mentality among the students. Many students in Gryffindor once encouraged Harry to go on an adventure together.

Especially the twins of the Weasley family brought up this matter repeatedly. It seems that not breaking the school rules is not enough to prove their courage.

Even many students from other colleges are curious about what is in the restricted area.

Hannah once discussed with Harley whether there are precious spells hidden in the restricted area, and guessed that there is a mysterious magic recorded there, which can conjure a sumptuous meal when used.

Harry can only complain about this, as expected of a Hufflepuff whose bedroom is next to the kitchen.

But Harry wasn't much interested in the restricted area. She wasn't much of a rule breaker, and Harley would only break the rules when she was sure there would be a big enough gain.

And now, it's clear that the payoff could be huge, so Halle is willing to take the risk of non-compliance.

But Harry was also a little curious now. The seriously injured demigod was most likely parasitic on others and lurking in Hogwarts for the purpose of stealing something.

A treasure that even a demigod could spy on, Harley also felt a little bit moved.

But it was just a little bit of a heartbeat, because Harry would stay in Hogwarts for a long time until he regained his strength.

In this case, it is obviously irrational to take away the treasure hidden by the principal.

Harry quickly came out of the corridor on the fourth floor, and met Peeves on the way.

Speaking of it, this famous ghost who has tortured generations of young wizards seems to have never troubled Harley.

Not only that, but sometimes it would be very frightened when it saw Harley, and would run away quickly.

While this is clearly not normal, Peeves only seems to be afraid of the Slytherin house ghost, the Bloody Baron.

Harley obviously didn't know the bloody Barrow well, so it's unlikely that Barrow went to warn Peeves.

But Harley didn't have the desire to find out, anyway, Peeves wouldn't take the initiative to trouble her.

When I came to the outside of the corridor on the fourth floor, the door was already open.

Inside the door is a three-headed dog, which is holding its three heads, motionless, as if asleep.

But its sleeping position is very strange, tightly against the side of the wall. Under its body, there is a trap door, most of which are also exposed at this time.

Harry drew out his wand vigilantly, and his hair kept fluttering behind his head, always on guard against the attack of the three-headed dog.

But when she stepped forward to check carefully, she found that the three-headed dog was dead.

Quite a neat method. The three-headed dog shows no signs of struggling, so it should be a one-hit kill.

This three-headed dog has complete fur, unlike the unicorn with smooth cuts. Is it a soul attack or something?

Harry didn't rush to open the trapdoor, but carefully studied the death of the three-headed dog, collecting useful information,

That demigod has the means to kill with one blow? It's not easy. This three-headed dog has such thick fur, and I'm afraid it also has a strong defense against magic.

Harry secretly wrote down this information, reminding himself to beware of that demigod's instant death attack.

She didn't think she had as strong a defense as a three-headed dog. If hit by that kind of instant death attack, Harley can only consume the magic mirror or wand.

Harry glanced at the three-headed dog, resisting the urge to dissect. Such a powerful three-headed dog still has residual spirituality, so it must be able to be used to make good sealed items or magical items.

But this is the restricted area that Professor Dumbledore said, and this three-headed dog must also be his pet.

So it's better for Harley not to make extra troubles.

Harry cast a curse on the trapdoor, and black flames precisely burned the trapdoor, turning it into nothingness.

Then Harry looked at the deep hole and waved his hand casually.

The door of the room was directly closed by flexible silk threads, and the room was also covered with silk threads.

A magic mirror was glued to the silk thread as Harley's last line of defense.

Harry then slowly slid down the silk thread, and then relied on dark vision to look around.

There was a puddle of black dust on the ground, obviously the traces left by something being burned.

Harry found one or two curled up and trembling vines in the corner, which seemed to be the devil vines that Professor Sprout mentioned in class.

It seems that the mysterious demigod was so violent that he directly burned the devil vines to ashes, and even the remaining vines were quite frightened, probably leaving an eternal psychological shadow.

Harry didn't stop, and moved quickly along the only stone corridor.

The stone corridor was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of water dripping slowly along the walls and the rustling of wings flapping at the end of the corridor.

At the end of the corridor was a brightly lit room with a high, vaulted ceiling.

In the sky, there are many small birds that are as dazzling as jewels, flapping their wings and flying around. And there are a few brooms standing on the wall of the room.

It seems that this room probably hopes that the breaker can use the broom to catch some birds, and open the opposite door with the help of the magic on the birds.

But now, Harry doesn't need to be so troublesome. The door was cut in pieces, and the cut was extremely smooth.

So, enjoying the benefits left to him by the trailblazer, Harley continued to pass through one level after another——

Ruined wizard boards and lifeless trolls.

It wasn't until the last checkpoint that Harry was barely stopped for a few minutes.

I don't know who arranged that checkpoint. There is a table in the room, with various bottles on it, and a crossword puzzle.

The front and rear doors of the room were lit with flames of different colors.

According to the content of the crossword puzzle, the intruder probably needs to guess the potion that can pass through these flames after taking it, in order to continue the invasion.

Harry didn't spend that time speculating, though. After all, the black flames in front and the purple flames in the back are just color-distorted ordinary flames.

Essentially, they are just ordinary flames. Therefore, Harley, who has the favor of the black flame, only needs to cover the surface of the body with the black flame to pass.

The reason why Harry stopped was because she thought about the levels she had just gone through.

In addition to the first level, the three-headed giant dog looks a little deterrent, the second level is the devil's net that the first-year students have learned, the third level is about flying up to catch birds, and the fourth level is playing chess...

Why can these levels be cracked even by first-year students, or why do they leave obvious clues for the intruders to pass the level!

It's just outrageous one by one! Is this really a restricted area?

There was a vague guess in Harry's mind-Professor Dumbledore got a treasure and knew that someone wanted to steal it.

So he deliberately set a trap that even a first-year student could pass through, thus ensnaring that unknown demigod.

So this restricted area is just a demigod trap.

Thinking of this, Harry looked at the black flames, a little hesitant, and didn't want to go any further.

Although she has many outstanding features, all of them can be explained by genius. But if it shows too much strength, it is not easy to explain.

But after thinking about it, since he has already arrived here, it is very likely that Professor Dumbledore has already watched him.

So Harley decided to keep going, at least to get the benefits that can be reaped first.
