The Evil God of Hogwarts - Chapter 396 Encounter
After pronouncing the name, Ellie’s feet were crawling with various snakes. These snakes all had a white crescent pattern on their foreheads. They swarmed in and tried to engulf Ellie completely.
The eldest lady was surprised and tried her best to step back, but it had no effect at all. She was quickly swallowed up by the tumbling snakes. Just when she wants to use magic, a huge snake will pass through the snakes and lick the foreign guest.
Inexplicable panic arose in Ellie’s heart, whether it was the hissing sound in her ears, the cold touch on her exposed skin, or the huge snake letter, it all plunged her into fear.
This is not true! This is not true! Wake up, Ali Shafiq! Miss Wizard screamed at herself in her heart. She closed her eyes and shouted in her heart: Get out of my head.
The cold touch on her body began to disappear, and the hissing in her ears became lighter and softer. Ellie opened her eyes, and the snakes and the huge snake letter disappeared.
Cold sweat fell from her forehead, and the eldest lady took a few deep breaths to suppress the remaining fear in her heart. Now is not the time to be surprised.
At this moment, she heard some sounds coming from the other end of the room, and the restlessness made the eldest lady immediately alert. Due to the chameleon spell, she was almost integrated with her surroundings at this time, but she also understood that vision was not the strong point of these monsters living in the dark.
The noise got closer and closer, and soon several ape-like creatures emerged from the other end of the room. They looked hairy and stunted, with protruding foreheads, huge eyes, and spindly arms.
The unsettling creatures stumbled around the room, searching for something, but they soon gave up their search and started arguing instead.
As the quarrel became more intense, the apes began to attack each other. Infighting comes and goes quickly, with the victors eating the losers alive without ceremony.
While those creatures were enjoying their own kind, the eldest lady quietly walked to the other side. The smell of blood filled the room, and together with the humid air, the mixture of the two made people want to vomit.
After escaping from the room, she continued to move forward. Those snake-man murals must have cast a magic spell. Even if they were partially damaged, they would still cause hallucinations after looking at them for a long time.
As for the ape-like monsters, she didn’t have a clue yet, but judging from the violence and cannibalism they displayed, these creatures were definitely not good.
Ellie took the time to record what she found in her notes so that she could be fully prepared the next time she came. She checked the road ahead and made sure there was no danger before moving on.
After walking a short distance, there was a fork ahead. In addition to the main passage, there was an entrance on the left and right sides.
The eldest lady stopped and watched for a while. She knelt down and found two stones of the right size from the ground. She threw one to the right first.
The stone hit the rock wall and made a crisp sound, but nothing happened, and the surroundings fell silent again.
Then on the left, this time after the sound sounded, a burst of light footsteps came. If you don’t listen carefully, this footsteps will be easily ignored.
Through the light of the lichen, Ellie did not notice the visitor, but she did not think that she was hallucinating. She thought about whether to give herself an owl eye to see more clearly, but she was afraid that she would use magic. The sound will startle the visitor.
After weighing it, the eldest lady gave up the idea. She clutched her wand tightly and cautiously walked towards the entrance on the right. After passing through a narrower road, she found herself in a cave with no light, and she had to cast a night vision spell on herself.
This spell is safer than Owl Eyes. It can be cast without the need to recite a spell, and the sound produced by the spell is also lighter. However, the shortcomings are equally obvious. The night vision effect lasts only five minutes. about.
With the help of the magic spell, Ellie could see the entire cave clearly. It was quite spacious, with few stalagmites and stalactites. One of the rock walls inlaid with a large number of crystals caught her attention.
The extended rock wall has a weird shape and twisted structure, decorated with interlaced bronze tubes and inlaid with crystals of various sizes. Most of the copper pipes are pierced into the rock wall, while the rest eventually meet at the spire above.
There was something standing on top of those spikes. Ellie carefully looked closer and found that they were human heads. She counted a total of twenty human heads.
The eldest lady originally thought this was an execution chamber, or a display room for snake people. But in front of that desecrated rock wall, there is a piece of rock carved into the shape of a seat, although the backrest of the carved seat is probably extremely uncomfortable for humans.
A chair, why carve a solitary chair? Ellie was confused and looked around again. Apart from the blasphemous rock wall and chair, there was nothing else of note in the entire room.
Well, now is not the time to dwell on this. While Ellie was recording, she was planning to leave this hellish place. But at this moment, a familiar voice came from far away.
At first, she thought she was hallucinating again. The voice was vague and unreal, but it was indeed Xing Ze’s voice. Ellie couldn’t help but frown. She turned her head and glanced at the rock wall, feeling a little uncertain in her heart, but Xing Ze’s voice gradually became clearer.
“Where…are you taking me? If…I’m locked up…can I…please have a single cell? You know, I’m not a good roommate.”
The last sentence can be heard quite clearly. Ellie speculated that Xing Ze was moving and that he was coming along the main passage.
Thinking of this, Ellie hurriedly turned around to take a look – although it was probably caused by hallucination – she preferred to believe that Xing Ze was here.
But when she turned around, her sleeve accidentally brushed the seat, and a sound similar to the gentle wind sounded.
Goosebumps appeared on Ellie’s back. She stopped and turned her head to look at the twisted rock wall again in confusion. She immediately understood that the sound came from those heads.
They howled softly in a chorus of wailing. Their eyes are closed, but the muscles in their lips and throats still tremble as they sing. Some of the heads appear to belong to European men, while others appear to be those of men and women from Africa.
The whispering songs sung from these heads had a sense of beauty, but Ellie still felt a chill, and she headed towards the exit without looking back.
Now, she finally understood what it was. It was a pipe organ. This was not a showroom or an execution chamber, but a music room.
Snake Man’s music room.
