Chapter 869 Dumbledore: I’m Waiting for Someone Here!

"What happened? Did Voldemort want to kill Professor Snape?" Harry asked.

He had been inexplicably brought to Voldemort by Snape before, and "died" under the Dark Lord's killing curse without saying a few words, so he had no idea of ​​the current situation in the outside world.

"I can't see anything more specific, but I think it should be related to the Horcrux..." At this point, Dumbledore paused, and then he told Snape to kill the big snake Nagini. The matter was told.

"Then what should I do to destroy that Horcrux? Use the Fire Curse? But I have never learned that spell." Harry seemed a little at a loss. How difficult the Horcrux was to deal with him, but after listening to Ivan and Xiao As Sirius and others had mentioned, ordinary magic could not even leave the slightest trace on the Horcrux.

"No, using dark magic to counter dark magic is not a wise move." Dumbledore shook his head and then asked with a smile. "Remember how your mother fought against the Killing Curse?"

"With... love?" Harry said uncertainly.

"Or maybe it's the power of faith!" Dumbledore said slowly. "In order to protect you from bad luck, Lily was willing to sacrifice herself and burst out with unspeakable courage. She used an ancient magic to transform this extremely firm belief into power and hide it in your body."

"If necessary, you can also try to use similar power to fight against Horcruxes..." Dumbledore added.

"I'm afraid I can't do this, sir..." Harry's face turned red and he couldn't help but retort. Now he didn't even have a wand in his hand, let alone one that could transform his beliefs into A powerful spell of strength.

It's impossible that as long as he thinks about killing Nagini, the other party will explode on his own, right?

This is too outrageous...

"I believe you can do it, as long as you want it and your will is strong enough..." Dumbledore said mysteriously, and then urged Harry without waiting for an answer.

"Okay, you should go back now, Harry, go back!"

The surrounding scene shook violently, and the towering hall cracked countless fine gaps, as if it was about to collapse in the next moment.

Harry couldn't care less about the questions in his head and shouted loudly. "What about you, Professor Dumbledore? Won't you go back with me?"

"We are different. You are still alive and there is still hope, but I am dead. I am going to take another path and experience a new and unknown adventure." Dumbledore said with a smile.

Harry hesitated to speak. If going forward is leading to the world of the dead, and going backward is returning to the paradise of the living, does that mean that Dumbledore who is staying here is like himself, between life and death, and has not done anything? no choice.

"I stay here because I still need to wait for someone here..." Dumbledore's figure is becoming more and more transparent, as if shrouded in white mist, but his voice is accurately conveyed. Harry's ear. "If he is willing to keep his promise, he will probably come soon..."

Waiting for someone...waiting for whom? Before Harry could ask any more questions, the supporting pillars on both sides collapsed, and Dumbledore's figure completely disappeared in front of him. Everything around him seemed to be collapsing, and even cracks appeared on the ground.

Harry could only turn around quickly and run away.

After running for a long time, Harry found that there was nothing but white mist ahead of him, with no end in sight.

What worried him even more was that the ground was collapsing faster and faster, even faster than his running speed. The ground on the front, back, left and right were collapsing. In endless despair, he just fell into the bottomless bottom. In the abyss of...

I don't know how long it took, but Harry suddenly felt his body being twitched by something, and he hit the wall behind him hard.

The severe pain made Harry wake up quickly, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a large winding snake spitting out a message, as if it was about to bite him.

Such an exciting scene startled Harry, but his groggy body made it impossible for him to avoid it.

In the midst of the lightning and flint, the sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the air came over. The big snake that wandered to him was instantly chopped into two pieces. The smelly snake blood splashed out and stained his robe and face.

The disgusting smell kept drifting into Harry's nose, but he was in no mood to pay attention to it. The experience of escaping from death again made him feel lucky.

Harry propped up his body and looked around, all he saw was blood.

The vast basement was filled with corpses of snakes of various sizes, with scarlet blood and minced meat strewn all over the floor. Harry even saw a large snake with only half of its body left, twisting its body ferociously.

Snape, who had saved his life, was half leaning against him at the moment, with his body pressed against the wall, and his face looked horribly ugly. He must have been bitten by a venomous snake during the battle, and there was a man lying beside his feet. Empty bottles.

Although Harry didn't know the cause and effect, he could still guess a little bit after seeing this scene. Voldemort must have hidden Nagini in the basement, mixed in with countless big snakes.

Relying on his familiarity with Nagini, he searched in this spacious, dark basement and quickly located the location of the other party.

Of course, this is not to say that Snape has bad eyesight, but that he can only find Nagini when he is half-lying like this - this cunning snake is hovering on the towering bracket on the right, moving bit by bit. Climbed along the beam to the top of Snape's head.

Harry felt a chill in his heart, and he didn't know where the strength came from. He ignored the pain in his body and jumped up from the ground, shouting loudly. "Professor, be careful up there!"

Snape reacted instantly, raised his head suddenly, and waved the wand vigorously. The invisible magic blade flew out and hit Nagini's body, making a crisp sound of iron and stone clashing. .

Nagini's painful screams also came over, and the snake body as thick as a child's waist rolled and fell from the air. However, due to the special nature of the Horcrux, even if it was forced to eat a divine blade without a trace, that Not a single scratch could be seen on the huge snake's body.

"Use fierce fire!" Harry reminded.

"Do you think I don't know? There's no way to use fire here!" Snape replied angrily, and then his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. The hole-shaped dots on his right leg were constantly seeping out. Black blood - he didn't know this information before, so he was bitten by Nagini who was mixed in the snake pile.

Fortunately, in order to deal with this big snake, he specially prepared a powerful antidote, which neutralized part of the poison, and he was able to persist until now.
