Hogwarts Collector, I cast a spell with the Eye of God - Chapter 116
“You idiot!” Voldemort was getting angrier,”Didn’t you say there was a Devil’s Snare down there?”
This injury could have been avoided.
If Quirrell hadn’t been so confident, he could have used the [Floating Spell] to slow down his descent.
Quirrell was in so much pain that he could hardly speak. He could only sob and beg,”Master… shall we go back? Please………”
But Voldemort obviously had no mercy. He sternly ordered:”Don’t talk nonsense! We have come this far. The Philosopher’s Stone is right in front of us! If you get the Philosopher’s Stone, I will grant you eternal life!”
“But…but my left leg is broken……”Qi Luo’s wailing was full of helplessness and despair.
“”Use the restorative potion quickly!” Voldemort urged impatiently.
Just as Quirrell was fumbling in his pocket, suddenly, a strange rustling sound broke the silence around him.
“”Fluorescent light flashing!” He hurriedly chanted a spell to illuminate the way ahead.
However, the scene in front of him made his heart tighten.
A large area of densely packed Chinese kale came like a tide, jumping and jumping, as if celebrating the upcoming feast.
The”mouths” like piranhas opened and closed, and the sharp”teeth” flashed cold light, which made people shudder.
“Damn it, when did Professor Sprout change to this kind of thing?” Quirrell cursed in his heart
“”The fire is blazing!”
He waved his wand decisively, and a wall of fire rose up in an instant, trying to block the attack of the biting cabbages.
But these tenacious little creatures are not soft persimmons like the devil’s snare that are afraid of light and fire.
They exist just to bite people!
The biting cabbages are fearless in the face of the wall of fire, and they rush forward one after another.
Although the flames burned a lot of cabbages, more cabbages still managed to break through the wall of fire and bite Quirrell fiercely in the flames.
Soon, Quirrell was bitten seven or eight times, and his painful wails began to echo in the passage again.
“What an idiot!” Voldemort finally couldn’t bear it anymore. If he continued like this, this body would be damaged by the cabbage, and he couldn’t tolerate that. 18
The next moment, his will seemed to descend upon Quirrell, and the flame in the wand instantly turned into a strange black color.
This time, no biting cabbage could break through the defense of this black flame.
All the biting cabbages were burned to ashes by the fierce fire.
However, Voldemort, who had overused his magic power, also felt tired, and he fell asleep again.
Quirrell regained control of his scarred body, and in the flickering light of the fire, he suddenly found two lines of words engraved on the wall.
One line provocatively read”Guess who I am?”
The other line arrogantly declared”Snape was here!” There was a Slytherin badge painted on the back.
“”Damn Snape!”
Quirrell cursed with gritted teeth,”He must have secretly replaced the Devil’s Snare. I’ve heard from Professor Sprout that this old fox is always thinking about moving all the good stuff into his medicine storage room. Damn this bastard!”
While cursing, he hurriedly took out the potion from his pocket and carefully applied it to the wound.
The wound from biting Cabbage was relatively easy to deal with, but the tooth marks with poison on Lu Wei were a headache. Ordinary recovery agents were of no help at all, and even the serious injury of a broken leg was difficult to heal in a short time.
After an unknown amount of time, Quirrell dragged one leg and limped towards the next room with difficulty.
When he finally stepped into the room, his eyes suddenly opened. This huge room was brightly lit, and countless dazzling keys, shining like gems, danced and flew freely in the room.
Quirrell found a few shabby brooms in the corner of the room, which turned out to be meteor brooms discarded by the school.
He couldn’t help rolling his eyes and complained,”Is this thing for people to ride?”
But on second thought, it’s better to have something than nothing, especially in his current situation. For him with a broken leg, it’s safer to fly slower.
So, Quirrell resolutely stepped on the broom, kicked the ground with his right foot, and flew into the dense array of keys.
When he was a student, although he was not a member of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, he also had a dream of being a player.
Quirrell shamelessly thought that if he was not strong enough, he would have become a star in the academy like Ye Ting now.
It’s time to show real skills.
He secretly swore in his heart that he could find the real key in one minute!
Quirrell plunged into the dense group of keys.
Within a second, he let out a scream.
“Ah!”
It turned out that when my finger collided with a key, it was burned and blistered instantly.
“This damn key is burning me to death!” Quirrell groaned in pain, stroking his injured finger and glaring at the key angrily.
Voldemort was also furious:”Who is so bold as to cast the [Fire Curse] on these keys ?】？”
“”It must be the work of that damn dwarf Flitwick!” Quirrell cursed with gnashing teeth, feeling desperate.
However, at this moment of rage, he suddenly discovered something even more bizarre.
The key that had just touched him was split into two in the air, and then into four, instantly turning into a group of keys.
What’s worse is that the group of keys that were originally flying in the air in an orderly manner became chaotic because of this sudden new member.
These new keys kept squeezing and colliding with the original keys, and each touch would trigger a new copy.
It was like triggering a chain reaction, and soon all the keys began to copy.
“This also adds the [Copy Spell】？”Quirrell exclaimed, the scene before him made him completely despair.
He couldn’t help but send a warm and cordial greeting to Professor Flitwick’s family in his heart.
In a blink of an eye, the whole space was filled with densely packed keys, like a metal storm.
Quirrell was trapped in it and couldn’t tell which one was the key to the next room.
Quirrell soon realized that the weirdness of these keys was far beyond his imagination.
Not only were they imposed with the [Fire Curse], but they also concealed more deadly traps.
In fact, only a small number of keys were imposed with the [Fire Curse].
Others were piercingly cold, and Quirrell’s fingers were firmly stuck as soon as they touched them. When he tore them off, he actually tore off a piece of flesh, which made him grimace in pain. There were also some keys that made people feel numb and unbearable as soon as they approached, as if they had touched a high-voltage switch.
Quirrell accidentally touched one of them, and suddenly felt that his whole body was electrified, as if he had become a human-shaped light bulb, and the current raged in his body, making him suffer.
What’s more, some keys have hard and heavy crystals, and no one knows how they fly up. When such a key hits him, Quirrell feels like he’s hit by a boulder, and the pain makes him almost unable to breathe.
There are also some keys that are splashed with water when touched – of course, a little splash of water is no big deal, but if he encounters an ice key at this time, he will turn into an ice sculpture. The wind key is even more bizarre. Once it approaches, it will blow an eight-level gale, blowing Quirrell to the point of being shaky, and he almost fell off the broom several times.
The most incredible thing is that grass grows on some keys!
These grasses seem to have life and will actively attack people. When Quirrell gets wet, vines grow wildly, tightly wrap around him, and almost strangle him to death.
In this ordeal of fire burning, freezing, lightning hitting rocks, and wind blowing vines, Voldemort howled in pain and kept urging Quirrell to leave this ghost place quickly.
He even threatened:”If you don’t hurry up, I will really kill you!”
After an hour of hard struggle, Quirrell finally passed Professor Flitwick’s dangerous level.
His body was covered with various scars, burns, frostbite, electric injuries and marks caused by vines intertwined, it was simply horrible.
However, he still stubbornly came to Professor McGonagall’s level.
As a result, he was blocked by the huge chessboard in front of him. (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
On both sides of the chessboard, black and white chess pieces are majestically arranged, like two armies facing each other, full of fighting spirit.
Each chess piece is large in size and painted in bright colors.
“Is this level… playing wizard chess?” Quirrell breathed a sigh of relief,”Finally, it’s a somewhat simple level.”
However, when he looked at the chess pieces carefully, he found that they were very different from the traditional wizard chess pieces – these chess pieces were actually clockwork robots, which was very different from Professor McGonagall’s style.
Quirrell couldn’t help but frowned, there must be something fishy here.
Moreover, each of these clockwork machines looked big and strong, and the weapons in their hands were shining coldly, as if warning Quirrell: they are not easy to mess with.
Quirrell didn’t know that both the biting cabbage and these mechanical chess pieces were the work of Ye Ting.
The biting cabbage was cultivated by Ye Ting with mysterious flower buds.
And these mechanical chess pieces were all made by him with reference to the Fontaine standard clockwork machinery.
For example, the robot holding a sword and shield acts as a soldier [Specialized for attacking Type Organ].
The chariot is a huge machine [Specialized Construction Type Organ], which has a spherical wheel and two huge mechanical arms similar to engineering vehicles. The sharp gears on one of the mechanical arms flash with cold light, and the claws of the other seem to be able to destroy all obstacles.
As for the role of the bishop, it is played by the [Specialized Suppression Type Organ]. They also have a humanoid appearance, but are equipped with long-range weapons—a focused energy cannon in one hand and a miniature machine gun in the other, capable of launching fierce firepower at any time. The
[Specialized Annihilation Type Organ] that plays the role of a knight is similar to a centaur, with four strong legs on the horse’s body.
The knight swords in their hands are extremely sharp, and the four legs with blades add a bit of fierceness.[]
However, what makes Quirrell most uneasy are the two chess pieces that seem to be the most delicate and harmless – the king and the queen.
The king’s chess piece looks like a male robot wearing a single shawl, while the queen is a female robot wearing a gorgeous long dress.
They both wear special crowns, symbolizing a key position.
However, Quirrell’s intuition tells him that these two chess pieces are far more dangerous than all the other clockwork machines combined.
Just by glancing at the configuration of this level, Quirrell knows the rules well. He will play the role of the black chess piece and play against the white chess piece, trying to control the black chess piece to victory.
If he breaks in forcefully, he will probably be trapped in the siege of chess pieces 273 on both sides, which is undoubtedly a dead end.
“Fortunately, wizard chess is my strong point.”Quirrell was secretly glad in his heart.
As a wizard born in Ravenclaw, Quirrell’s intelligence is not low. He used to like playing puzzle games like wizard chess. In the common room at that time, few people could beat him.
He was very confident that this level was just a piece of cake for him.
This is not to say that he thought Professor McGonagall would let him go – after going through the hardships of the first three levels, if he still believed that the professors of Hogwarts were good people, then he was simply a big fool!
His basis came from his understanding of magic.
The characteristics of magic props are there. The higher the intelligence of the creation, the more difficult it is to make.
Otherwise, things like the Sorting Hat would not be so precious.
Therefore, In Quirrell’s expectation, these chess pieces could not have too high an IQ, which was determined by the nature of magic.
But soon, Quirrell found that he was too happy too early.
But reality gave him a loud slap in the face.
The intelligence of these chess pieces was obviously higher than he thought.
After only five moves, he felt the strong oppression from the white side.
When he reached the tenth move, Quirrell was already sweating profusely, and every move required a long consideration.
The chess strength of the white chess was unfathomable. He, the former little prince of wizard chess, had no power to fight back in front of the white chess!
By the twelfth move, half of his chess pieces had been eaten, and he himself, as the black king, was firmly killed, with no chance of a comeback.
“There must be a master behind this white chess!” Quirrell couldn’t help cursing.
Otherwise, he couldn’t explain why the white chess was so strong.
Quirrell didn’t know that it was not ordinary magic that controlled the white chess, but the first version of the [Intelligent Core] made by Ye Ting and Nicolas Flamel.
Although this first version of the [Intelligent Core] did not have the powerful computing power and independent mind of the real [Intelligent Core], it was also a very smart core.
On this basis, when Ye Ting wrote intelligence into the core, he referred to the supercomputer [Deep Blue] under development, so he named this core [Light Blue].
The future [Deep Blue] defeated the Muggle chess champion and announced the arrival of the era of artificial intelligence.
And this simplified version of [Light Blue], it’s not too much to abuse Quirrell.
Facing the step-by-step pressure of the chess pieces, Quirrell gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try and force a breakthrough!
Just when he was about to be knocked off the chessboard by the white chess, he turned into a wisp of black smoke, soared into the sky, and took the crown of the white chess.
