The Mightiest Wizard of Hogwarts

Chapter 228 Helga Hufflepuff



Chapter 228 Helga Hufflepuff

Of course, it is impossible to leave in vain. Feeney saw a groove on the stone wall at the end of the tunnel, which was in the shape of an upright golden cup. Obviously, Hufflepuff's golden cup still needs to be placed on it.
Finny was very puzzled. Hufflepuff's golden cup was just a tableware she used to put food on, and the magic on it was just to make the food more delicious.

Such an item, why should Hufflepuff use it as a key many times, and value it so much?
Feeney's brain was spinning rapidly, a large amount of information flashed in his mind,
Although he had already thought about a lot of things, but in reality it was only a few seconds.
After inserting Hufflepuff's gold cup into the stone wall, the stele in front of him opened directly,
There is no vibration, no special effects, not even magic. This stone wall is the simplest Muggle mechanism, the one from 1000 years ago.

In other words, in fact, even if it is not Hufflepuff's gold cup that is inserted into the stone wall, the stone wall will open normally.

In this way, Finny had to suspect that Hufflepuff made the key in the shape of the gold cup because he couldn't think of other keys.

Although he also knew that this idea was just a joke, in fact the golden cup as a key must have its truth.

After the stone wall opened peacefully without any change, Finny finally saw the true face of Hufflepuff's Chamber of Secrets.

After stepping over the stone wall, the entire Hufflepuff's secret room came into Finny's eyes, and he had a panoramic view at a glance.

Rather than saying that this is a secret room that treasures Hufflepuff's heritage, it is more like a lounge,

Finney never found the opportunity to enter Hufflepuff's common room in Hogwarts, but he saw Hufflepuff in the control center of Hogwarts castle above Dumbledore's office. A model of the Chippucci Common Room.

At this time, the secret room in front of him was not exactly the same as Hufflepuff's common room, it could be said that it was exactly the same.

Of course, there are no two passages leading to the male and female bedrooms. There is a double four-poster bed in a corner of the secret room.

This kind of four-poster bed is generally used in castles. All the bedrooms in Hogwarts use this style of bed. The only difference is that Slytherin's bed is the most luxurious and the most luxurious. comfortable.

After all, there is a high probability that the little wizard of Slytherin is not suitable for the son of the school manager, that is, the nephew of the school manager, or other relatives,

In other words, Slytherin is a place where the rich second generation gathers. Not only the bed is the best here, but the decoration, sofa, fireplace, everything is the best in Hogwarts.

But the four-poster bed in this secret room made Finny a little bit surprised.

It is not surprising that there is a bed in Hufflepuff's Chamber of Secrets. After all, Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets was built in her office, and it is not surprising that Hufflepuff chose the Chamber of Secrets as his bedroom.

What makes Feeney feel strange is that there is a set of luggage on this bed at this time, and Feeney has observed that there is no dust on the quilt.

In other words, there were people living here not long ago!
This discovery is horrifying.

After Finney discovered this, he didn't bother to check the arrangement of other furniture in the secret room and search for inheritance. Instead, he searched in the secret room now, and after confirming that there was no other entrance here, the creepy feeling It feels even worse.

The reason for this feeling is that Finny has already determined that there is only one intersection where he came from, and Hufflepuff's gold cup is needed to get in.

What matters is that Hufflepuff's cup has been in Lestrange's vault for at least 11 years,

And he has confirmed that once the two stone walls that enter the secret room are opened, there is no way to close them.

In other words, the people living in this secret room came in thousands of years ago when Hufflepuff built the secret room!

You know, this has lived for a thousand years,
Although he had also guessed that the four founders might still be alive, that was just a conjecture, never a reality.

It is not that there is no immortality in the magic world, Nicole lived for 500 years,
The Hai Erbo who created the Horcrux is still alive, but he was sealed by the Council of Elders.

However, the high probability of being able to enter Hufflepuff's secret room is Hufflepuff himself,

As the founder of Hogwarts, she lived for thousands of years but hid in this one place, and it was still the kind of place where she couldn't get out, which made Finny puzzled.

It couldn't be Hufflepuff who sealed himself in this place.

"Why is there only one person this time?"

Suddenly, in the secret room where you could hear a needle drop so quietly, there was such a voice,
The voice was very hoarse and gloomy, as if it came from the Nine Netherworld.

Feeney trembled subconsciously, and walked around in large numbers, looking for the source of the sound,
Puff and Egg Roll immediately stood by Feeney's side one after the other, looking around vigilantly, ready to deal with emergencies at any time, and working hard for it.

The most important thing in the secret room is that it has been extinguished long ago, and there is a sound of footsteps in the fireplace that has not been burned for a long time.

Tap, tap, tap, tap,
The footsteps were getting closer and stronger.

As the footsteps approached, Feeney, Puff and Egg Roll became more and more nervous.

It is the tension of the unknown, of the irresistible.

Feeney knows very well that regardless of whether the person living in the secret room is Hufflepuff or not, he is an old monster who has lived for a thousand years. He will never be a match for such an old monster, even with puffs and egg rolls. of.

Finally, footsteps were heard, and a figure appeared in the fireplace,
A short, somewhat plump lady in a khaki robe came out of the fireplace,
He walked out like that. At this moment, Finny realized that the fireplace turned out to be fake. Like Platform [-] and Three Quarters at King's Cross Station, it was a magical building.

It wasn't until the lady walked from the fireplace to the light in the secret room that Finny could see her face clearly.

A head of light golden hair looks more like white hair in this dim environment.

The eyebrows are very light, and although the nose is tall and straight, it is much wider and thicker than ordinary people. With the slightly pointed chin and the rich figure, it gives people a very gentle and kind feeling.
Of course, the premise was that Finny didn't see her terrifying pair of red and yellow eyes full of killing intent and carnage, her sharp ears, and the sharp and bloody teeth protruding from the corners of her mouth.

Seeing her appearance and clothes, Feeney had already identified her,
She is indeed Ms. Helga Hufflepuff, one of the four founders of Hogwarts, because she is almost identical to the portrait of Ms. Hufflepuff in Hogwarts.

But there are also some differences, that is her eyes, ears and the teeth at the corners of her mouth.

Regarding the characteristics of these three places, three creatures, werewolves, vampires, and elves, popped up directly in Feeney's brain.

Hufflepuff's appearance at this time put a lot of pressure on Finny, and gave him an urge to turn around and run away immediately.
The faint smell of blood that filled the air because of Hufflepuff's appearance made Finny think of some horrible things, and made his urge to escape even more obvious.

But his body didn't obey his brain's instructions at all. No matter how much he wanted to turn around and take steps to escape, his body didn't move at all.
It was as if the whole body was not his own.

"Let me ask you, why are you the only one here this time?"

Hufflepuff's voice sounded again, different from before, this time her voice was full of chill,

"Which branch are you of? Prowse? Prince? Smith?"

Hufflepuff's voice continued to ring in Finny's ears, and all the people who appeared in this question were descendants of Hufflepuff's family.

"I remember that I clearly left a request at the beginning. Every 20 years, there must be two people. How come you are the only one this time? Moreover, this time is less than 20 years. Do the math, this generation should It's Smith. So, what happened?"

Hufflepuff didn't wait for Finny's answer, and continued to ask,
And her question also told Finny a lot of information. First of all, the three families should know that Hufflepuff is still alive.
No, there was only one member of the Prince family in the previous generation, and that was Irene Prince, a witch. She married a Muggle, Tobias Snape, and left behind a child, who is now Huo Gewartz's potions professor, Severus Snape, so the Prince family may not know that Hufflepuff is alive, maybe they knew it before, but they definitely didn't know it after Irene that's it.Even, they didn't even know that they were descendants of Hufflepuff. If Finny wasn't born in the superstructure of the Presbyterian Church, he wouldn't know about it.

As for the Prowse family, it is even more pitiful. There is only a five-year-old little witch in their family, and the rest of them have died because of some things. Now the little witch is being raised in an orphanage established by the Presbyterian Church. Will go directly to Si Gule to study, and eventually become one of the thugs of the Presbyterian Church,

Before meeting Hufflepuff, he didn't pay much attention to the Prowse family, Finey. Now, he suddenly felt that there might be some other things behind the disappearance of this family.

Because like Prince and the Prowse family, the Smith family seems to have only two descendants now, one in Gryffindor College and one in Hufflepuff College,

In other words, all the descendants of Hufflepuff are only four or five scattered people left. Thinking about it this way, there must be the handwriting of the Presbyterians.

The more dangerous the time, the faster Finny's head turns,
"No answer? So you are not actually my descendant?"

Seeing that Finny didn't answer her question, Hufflepuff said,
"So where did you get your golden cup? Answer me, and I will spare your life!"

The last sentence Hufflepuff can already be said to be roaring,
Seeing this, Feeney didn't have any room to resist, and said,
"I am indeed not your descendant, ma'am. I am a student of Hogwarts. The reason why I came here is to find the legacy you left behind. In Hogwarts, there have always been four founders who left behind before their death. Inherited sayings,"

Feeney was honest, at least on some things,
"As for the gold cup, it was indeed in the hands of the Smith family more than ten years ago. However, your descendant, Hepziba Smith, the patriarch of the Smith family at the time, showed it to another person in the magic world as a talking point. , she was killed after that, and the golden cup was taken away by that person."

"As for why the gold cup is in my hands now, it starts with the identity of that person. That person's original name was Tom Riddle, a dark lord in the magic world, but he was defeated and died 11 years ago. , we were not sure until a while ago that he made Horcruxes while he was alive,"

"The Horcrux?"

Hufflepuff suddenly raised his voice a lot, and asked,
"You mean, he made my golden cup into a Horcrux?"

As he said that, Finny felt that the golden cup in his hand seemed to be pulled up by something, and it floated towards Hufflepuff.

"Sure enough, it smells like the foul-smelling soul that makes Horcruxes. Also, is this smell a basilisk? Are you destroying a Horcrux with the venom of a basilisk?"

Feeney nods,

Hufflepuff said appreciatively,
"It's a good idea to clear the soul without destroying the item itself, but unfortunately, this method cannot completely clear the soul,"

As she said this, Finny saw that the golden cup began to shrink in her hand, and finally turned into a metal ball, which could not be destroyed any more.

"Tom Riddle?"

Feeney nodded, indicating that it was the name,
"Very good, I remembered, because of him, I lost a tool, well, boy, you can continue to talk about why my juniors didn't look for my golden cup, but let you find it."

Feeney then told Hufflepuff about the formation of Prince, Prowse, and Smith in the wizarding world.

After Hufflepuff listened quietly, his eyes became much more terrifying,

"Very good, very good, Council of Elders, if you don't choose this path, you won't allow others to choose? Since you have broken my path, I will also break your path!"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Finny and asked again,
"You said you came to find my heritage?"

Finny nodded, and was about to speak when he was interrupted by Hufflepuff's next words,
"Huh? You smell like Salazar. Are you his descendant? If that's the case, I won't take action against you. After all, he is one of my rare friends. Otherwise, if he finds out later, It's time to play his young lady's temper with me again, well, since you told me these things, I don't want you to come for nothing, so I'll give you this."
