Chapter 113 Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets
"This matter dates back to the beginning of Hogwarts." Professor McGonagall kept walking in the classroom, and everyone's attention was focused on Professor McGonagall. Even the little wizard who hated classes the most couldn't help but sit up straight.
"About a thousand years ago, there were four extremely great and powerful wizards who founded Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and divided it into four magic schools in order to change the status quo of wizards."
Professor McGonagall paused. This was mentioned in a section of Hogwarts' school history.
"Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Roena Ravencla, and finally, Sakazar Slytherin!"
"They founded Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin respectively."
"At the beginning of the school, the relationship between the four people was very close, but later, due to some problems in the school, one person withdrew from Hogwarts, and that person was Salazar Slytherin."
"I knew it." Ron muttered quietly below, but no one paid attention to him. The differences between the founders were not written in the public version of the school history.
"Salazar Slytherin had a big quarrel with the other three founders over the issue of recruiting students. Salazar Slytherin believed that not everyone was worthy of learning magic, and only children from wizarding families of noble descent had the right to receive education. But the other three did not think so."
"The other three founders believed that they should expand the source of students, because the situation of wizards was not good at the time. Muggles and the clergy of the church classified wizards and dark creatures in the same category. In fact, they were just another existence of wizards, in the name of God."
"In any case, Salazar Slytherin They all couldn't agree with the other three's approach, so they left Hogwarts soon after its founding. "
"Legend has it that Salazar Slytherin was dissatisfied with the other three founders' approach, so when he established the school, he secretly built a chamber of secrets, and waited until his heir returned to Hogwarts to open his chamber of secrets, get his legacy, and then eliminate those who Salazar Slytherin thought were not qualified to learn magic, and rectify the purity of Hogwarts."
Professor McGonagall told the story about the chamber of secrets bit by bit. Except for Laura, the eyes of almost all Slytherins became brighter and brighter.
Salazar Slytherin's legacy, clearing all those with impure blood, this is exactly what many Slytherins dream of, as for fear?
What a joke, the most basic point to be able to enter Slytherin is that the blood must be pure, and being cleared by Salazar Slytherin's heir will certainly not happen to Slytherin.
"In other words, someone who clears out Muggle blood?" Hermione asked cautiously. In Hermione's opinion, this was no different from the dark wizard in the past.
"I think so, Miss Hermione Granger!" Professor McGonagall said quickly, but from Professor McGonagall's pale face, she was really worried about this matter.
"What is in the Chamber of Secrets?"
"I don't know the specific things," said Professor McGonagall, "Legend has it that only the heir of Slytherin can control the monster, a terrible beast from ancient times."
When Professor McGonagall finished the story, everyone took a breath of cold air. If this was true, then everyone present would be in danger. They didn't think that a weak descendant could control the monster left by Salazar Slytherin.
A faint feeling of uneasiness quickly climbed up everyone's heart, and everyone was looking forward to Professor McGonagall saying more about the Chamber of Secrets.
"In fact, don't worry." Professor McGonagall clapped her hands, as if she wanted to focus everyone's attention on her.
"Regarding the Chamber of Secrets, we think it is a legend. After all, for thousands of years, the school has stopped people from looking for the legendary Chamber of Secrets left by Salazar Slytherin countless times. Unfortunately, we searched all over Hogwarts and couldn't find it. I think this incident must be the result of someone being hostile to the school and wanting to maliciously attack the school."
"For this reason, I can only say that the school will find out the mastermind behind the scenes as soon as possible and give everyone a stable living environment."
...
"I always think Salazar Slytherin is a perverted fool." Ron said to Harry, Van Lin and Hermione. They were playing in the corridor as usual. "But I never thought that he was the ancestor of this pile of pure-blood trash. I would never stay in that college. To be honest, if the Sorting Hat put me in Slytherin, I would take the train home directly..."
Hermione nodded enthusiastically, but. Fanlin had some different opinions, "In fact, Laura was also sorted into Slytherin."
"She doesn't belong there. I think she should go to Ravenclaw or Gryffindor!" Ron nodded. The four of them had a very good impression of this Slytherin girl who had helped each other during their breakdown.
Harry said nothing, his stomach felt uncomfortable. Harry never told Ron, Verlin, or Hermione that the Sorting Hat was very serious about placing him in Slytherin.
He remembered it like it was yesterday, a year ago when he was putting the hat on his head, a voice whispered in his ear.
"You can become great, it's all in your head, and there is no doubt that Slytherin can help you succeed..."
But Harry thought very hard, because he had long heard about Slytherin's reputation becoming bad due to the appearance of the Dark Lord.
"Not in Slytherin?" said the hat, "Oh, well, if you're sure... it would be better in Gryffindor..."
That's probably it. Harry kept thinking about the Sorting Hat's words. This was not a good sign.
"What's wrong? Harry?"
Fanlin shook Harry's arm. The three of them kept talking about Laura and the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, but Harry didn't speak the whole way, and he didn't know what he was tired of. Soon, the three people were left far behind.
"I……"
"Perhaps our great savior, Potter! In the fantasy of becoming the heir of Slytherin..." (To be continued)
