Chapter 230
"That means he gave them a lot of gold," said Sirius contemptuously, throwing the precious medal into a corner.
Kreacher had sneaked into the room several times, trying to hide something under his loincloth, and every time he was caught, he would say a lot of really nasty words.
Kreacher burst into tears with rage when Sirius snatched a large gold ring with the Black family crest from his hand, and walked out of the room sobbing, cursing the boy with words they had never heard before. Sirius.
"It's my dad's stuff," Sirius said. "Kreacher isn't as loyal to him as he was to my mother, but I saw him kiss an old pair of my dad's pants last week."
Eventually, Fleur found the locket at the bottom of the collection.
The locket was the size of an egg, an ornate s, inlaid with small emeralds, gleaming dimly in the twilight that shone through the canopy of the canvas tent.
Surprisingly, though, this locket is a Horcrux, but it's not dangerous - at least compared to the diary and the ring, there's no dangerous magic on it.
Voldemort seemed to trust the defenses in the cave, otherwise he wouldn't cast dangerous magic on his Horcruxes.
However, this locket does give off an eerie feeling.
Although Furong struggled to find it, when she got the locket, she had a strong urge to throw it away immediately.
She restrained herself and tried to break the locket with her hands, then tried the Unlock Charm again, to no avail.
He handed the locket to Ye Ting and Hermione, and they each tried their best, but they were all as unsuccessful as her.
"But do you feel it?" Furong asked softly, holding it tightly in her hand.
"what?"
Furong handed the Horcrux to Ye Ting.
After a while, Ye Ting understood what Furong meant.
Was he feeling his own pulsation, or was something in the locket beating like a little metal heart.
All in all, after getting the locket, the three were finally satisfied.
Before leaving Sirius' house, they found Kreacher at Hermione's request.
The girl took out the fake Horcrux from her bag, the fake locket with the note from Regulus to Voldemort.
"Kreacher, I, uh, hope you'll take this," she shoved the locket into the elf's hand, "it's Regulus's, and I'm sure he'd be willing to give it to you to thank you— —"
As soon as the elf saw the locket, he let out a scream of surprise and pain, and collapsed to the ground again.
It took them nearly half an hour to calm Kreacher, and the elf was so excited that his knees went weak and he couldn't stand.
When he was finally able to stumble a few steps, he went to the cupboard and carefully hid the locket under the dirty blanket.
Surprisingly, before the three left No. 12 Grimmauld Place, the elf bowed low to Ye Ting and Hermione respectively, and even gave Fleur a comical twitch, perhaps trying to salute.
After returning home, Ye Ting took out the locket and prepared to destroy it.
When Ye Ting took out the Infinity Sword, Hermione was holding the locket, but the locket seemed to smell dangerous and began to change.
It kept shaking in Hermione's hand, and the chain began to dance in the air, as if trying to escape Hermione's palm.
Hermione cast a confinement spell on it, but it bounced off.
Sure enough, no Horcrux should be underestimated.
Unfortunately, no matter how much the locket struggles, it is just a locket.
Soon Hermione found a way to trap it, its chains tightly pressed to the ground by the gravity-enchanted book.
Then, Ye Ting swung his sword against the locket with force.
However, the Infinity Sword, which has always been unfavorable, only cut off the gold chain of the locket, but did not hurt its body in the slightest.
"Perhaps, we should open it to destroy it," Hermione analyzed. "The core of the locket is clearly hidden inside."
"But we can't open it," Fleur complained. "No magic can open this locket."
"It should work if it's Parseltongue," Hermione said after thinking about it. "After all, this is Slytherin's locket, and the way to open it may be Slytherin's forte."
0317 The whereabouts of the Hufflepuff relics
Although the Snake Whisperer is the symbol of Slytherin and his heirs, it does not mean that ordinary people cannot learn Snake language.
At least, in the original book, Dumbledore successfully learned the Snake language the day after tomorrow and became a Parseltongue—of course, such a Parseltongue would not be inherited.
Coincidentally, in terms of IQ and language talent, Ye Ting is not inferior to Dumbledore, but even surpasses him. Therefore, in addition to the languages of various human-like magical creatures such as Murloc, Centaurus, and Giant , and even the snake language he learned smoothly.
Now is the time for him to use this skill.
So, he started a second attempt.
He raised his sword again, looked at the locket, held his breath, ready to strike.
No one knows what the dangers of an open locket are, so the sooner the locket is destroyed, the safer they will be.
After getting ready, Ye Ting
Speaking from the locket.
"Open--"
It was a hissing growl in the ears of Hermione and Fleur.
The next moment, the small golden lid of the locket popped open with a click.
Behind the two little glass windows was a live eye blinking, bright and black, like before Tom Riddle's eyeballs turned red and pupils became a line.
The terrifying eyes immediately stared at Hermione who was holding it, startling her.
"I saw--"
Before he could finish his tempting words, a silver light flashed by.
Ye Ting looked at the locket with a cold face, completely ignoring its temptation and its spiritual magic.
The Infinity Sword fell instantly.
Although this sword could not hurt Hermione at all, the girl was still captured by the sword's edge, she involuntarily retreated, and then sat down on the ground.
There was a metallic clang, followed by a long scream.
Just like the scene where the first two Horcruxes were destroyed, a terrifying black spiritual body emerged from the locket, struggled painfully in the air, and finally vanished into ashes.
In the end, this precious Slytherin relic was completely tattered under the destruction of the Infinity Sword.
The glass of both small windows was punctured, Riddle's eye was gone, and the locket's colored silk lining was lined with light plumes of smoke. The thing that lived in the Horcrux disappeared.
