Chapter 225
There was no movement, except that the light from the liquid seemed to be brighter.
The two girls silently watched Ye Ting experiment, and they didn't think they could talk again until he retracted his wand.
"Do you think the Horcrux is hidden here, Ting?" Hermione asked.
"Oh, yes." Ye Ting stared at the stone basin more intently. Hermione saw his face reflected in the smooth green liquid.
"But how do you get to it? This liquid, you can't reach it, you can't separate it, scoop it up, or drain it, you can't make it disappear with a vanishing spell, deform it with magic, or otherwise. Change its properties. I can only conclude that this liquid needs to be drunk."
"What?" the two girls said in unison, "No way!"
"I think it's this: Only by drinking it can I empty the stone basin and see what's hidden underneath."
"But what if—what if it poisoned you?" Hermione said worriedly, and Furong also grabbed Ye Ting's hand tightly.
"What? Poison me?" Ye Ting looked at the two girls in confusion, "I didn't say I would drink it myself. In fact, only a fool would drink this stuff."
"Then what did you mean just now..." Ye Ting's answer made them even more puzzled.
"Don't you remember?" Ye Ting smiled slightly, "There are more than three of us here."
"You mean...those...infernal corpses?" Furong reluctantly said the name that disgusted her.
"Yes, these are barely 'living people', but they need to be processed."
Ye Ting waved his wand, picked a random corpse in the lake, and grabbed it out.
The Yin corpse that came to the land found three people, and immediately staggered towards them.
However, the chains of Transfiguration flew towards its limbs and entangled it, holding it firmly in place.
"Well, it's you," Ye Ting looked at the male corpse and nodded with satisfaction, "Then please open your mouth, sir, I want to treat you to a drink."
Under the compulsion of the chains, the mouth of the corpse was opened, and the three of them seemed to be able to smell the stench from its rotting mouth.
Hermione and Furong involuntarily took a few steps back, feeling helpless at Ye Ting's bad taste.
On the other hand, Ye Ting cast a bubble head spell on himself, then put on gloves, walked forward excitedly, and poured a bottle of red potion into the mouth of the corpse.
The two girls recognized that it was the life-restoring potion in the labyrinth in the final of the Triwizard Tournament.
"The principle of the life recovery potion is to revive the vitality to restore the injury," Ye Ting explained, "Although the corpse is a corpse, the black magic forcefully restores part of the corpse's vitality, which makes the corpse active. , I have to say, this is quite amazing, the Dark Lord does have a hand, he actually thought of using the magic of death to bring life..."
"Speak the point!" Furong didn't want to hear Ye Ting discuss things like the Inferi seriously.
"Okay okay, let's talk about the main point." Ye Ting returned to the theme with some dissatisfaction, "My life recovery potion will not dispel the black magic of the corpse, but will further revive the life force of the corpse. Outside of the soul, the gap with the living is not too big, so it can take the responsibility of drinking the potion."
0311 The Horcrux That Was Dropped
Next, the task is simple.
Ye Ting found a cup at random, scooped out the emerald green liquid from the stone basin, and poured it into the mouth of the corpse.
When the first cup of liquid was entered, the state of the corpse changed.
It no longer focused on Ye Ting and the three, and was determined to attack the three living.
Because, at this moment, its own state is very bad.
As expected of the original Lieutenant General Dumbledore weeping bitterly, a poison that is greatly weakened, it has a very strong effect even on such an Infernal corpse.
Even though it was firmly entangled by the chains, at this moment, the Infernal Corps reacted violently to the emerald green liquid.
It began to tremble involuntarily and hissed from its parched throat.
This made the two girls looking at the corpse frown.
When Ye Ting poured the third cup of liquid, the effect of the medicine had completely spread to the whole body of the corpse whose digestive system had been restored under the action of the Life Restoration Potion.
The Infernal Corpse is already paralyzed, and the chains that were originally used to restrain it have now become a shelf to support it—the Inferi Corps today can almost be regarded as hanging on the chains.
After the fifth and sixth cups, the corpse no longer trembled. In other words, the corpse had completely lost its normal response at this time. It was now like a puppet, letting Ye Ting pour the liquid into his throat continuously. Only the occasional twitch proves that it is still alive.
Finally, after the eighth cup, the stone basin had bottomed out, and the three of them could see the locket placed in the center of the stone basin.
If the speculation is correct, this is another of Voldemort's Horcruxes, Salazar Slytherin's relic - Slytherin's locket.
However, none of the three hurried to get it. Ye Ting's attention was still on the corpse, while the two girls remembered the last Horcrux. They knew that touching the Horcrux rashly was quite dangerous. Act, who knows what magic Voldemort will put on Horcruxes.
Due to the existence of Soul Fragments, certain spells and curses placed on Horcruxes can become extremely powerful.
After Ye Ting scooped up the emerald green liquid, the chain was restored to its shape
, Immediately, this "satiated" Infernal corpse fell to the ground with a "click" like a puppet that lost its puppet line, and then remained motionless.
"Is it... is it dead?" Hermione leaned forward curiously, she imitated a blister spell, and then carefully observed the Infernal Corpse.
"It's not dead yet!" After observing, Hermione was a little puzzled by the result, "How could the Dark Lord's trap not kill it, could the Inferi be immune to some kind of poison?"
"No, you're wrong," Ye Ting shook his head. "This is not a truly deadly poison. The Dark Lord would not want to poison anyone who came to this island."
Both Hermione and Fleur thought this was absurd. Would Voldemort be the kind of person who would save a life?
For a while, they thought that the boy in front of them had changed, and they thought Voldemort in the best interest.
"Ting," Hermione said, trying to sound reasonable, "Honey, we're dealing with the Dark Lord—"
"I'm sorry, Hermione and Furong. I should say this: he wouldn't be willing to immediately kill the people who came to this island." Ye Ting corrected himself, "He will let them live for a while, to find out How can they get through his defenses, and most importantly, find out why they are so eager to empty the stone basin. Don't forget, the news of the Dark Lord's creation of the Horcrux has not leaked, and at this moment, he is still I thought my secrets were hidden."
This reason is in line with Voldemort's temperament.
Next, the attention of the three turned to the pendant.
Ye Ting looked at the pendant and then at Feiju, but Feiju didn't respond.
"There's no danger on this," he said. "There's no trace of black magic on it - I mean, it's not a Horcrux at all."
"how is this possible?"
"Then don't we just run for nothing?"
The two girls exclaimed.
In fact, Ye Ting has long been prepared for this matter. After all, he understands that this has been mentioned in the plot, and he also knows where the real locket is. Now he can find the real locket at any time.
However, it is also impossible for him to inexplicably "know" some information for convenience.
You must know that he defeated Voldemort is not an end, but a means. He hopes that by defeating Voldemort, he can cultivate the girls around him, and at the same time build reputation for himself and Burns, so that he can control the Ministry of Magic in the future.
He stretched out his hand, took out the locket from the stone basin, and turned it over and over in his hand. Hermione and Fleur also stepped forward, side by side with him, observing the locket.
