Chapter 129: Tom Appears!
Lockhart looked smug when he obtained a wand.
After Lucas slid out of the pipe, he pointed his wand at him right away.
"Don't move, Mr. Grindelwald, I know you are very powerful, but if you dare to act rashly, I can't guarantee that I will not hurt you."
"Now throw the wands in your hands at me!"
Lucas took a careful look at the wand in Lockhart's hand and discovered it was not the broken wand of Ron like in the original book.
He looked suspiciously at the two boys beside him and saw Harry lowering his head in annoyance and self-blame.
"Drop your wand quickly!"
Along with Lockhart's urging voice, Harry and Ron saw a wand being thrown.
Turning to look at Lucas, they saw that he seemed indifferent.
"Grindelwald, what do you mean, how are we going to save Ginny without a wand?"
Lucas didn't get a chance to answer because Lockhart started laughing and taunting them first.
"You don't have to worry about this, everyone will know when you get out of here that we came a step late and failed to save the girl."
"The three of you also lost your minds because of seeing her mangled dead body."
"And I! I successfully repelled the basilisk and rescued you from the Chamber of Secrets, so who should I start with now? Why not start with Mr. Harry Potter."
Seeing Lockhart raise his wand, Harry and Ron became very tense, thinking they were truly done for this time.
Ron even lowered his head in surrender.
At this moment, something unexpected happened in front of the two of them.
Lockhart suddenly bent over, clutching his stomach.
Under the surprised gaze of the two there was a lot of blood on his robes.
Lucas reached out and recalled his wand.
Then he rewarded Lockhart with an overpowered "flipendo". The huge force lifted the stupid peacock into the air, he did a triple flip and was slammed into the stone wall fiercely.
The subterranean cave that existed for thousands of years began to shake and stones began to fall from overhead.
Lucas summoned Harry's wand, stuffed it into his hand, and kicked him out.
Watching Lucas and Ron surrounded by stones, Harry shouted anxiously: "Ron, Lucas, are you all right?"
"We're fine Harry, but Lockhart's in a bad situation, you go save Ginny first, we'll be there later."
As soon as Ron finished speaking, he was knocked unconscious by a stone falling on his head.
Harry, who saw the situation from the cracks in the stone, was even more anxious.
At this time Lucas came to the opposite side of the stone crevice, he stared into Harry's eyes and said: "Weasley's words are correct, you should go to rescue Ginny Weasley now, leave this to me, don't worry!"
After saying that, Lucas turned and walked towards Ron.
Seeing that Ron has a friend who is taking good care of himself Harry felt relieved and walked towards the secret room.
But he didn't know that just after he left, Lucas immediately threw Ron aside, and even cast a Stunning Charm on him.
Seeing Lockhart's bleeding wound Lucas held up his wand mercifully: "vulnera sanentur"
This spell is a counter-curse specially created by Professor Snape for Sectumsempra.
The advantages of Sectumsempra have been mentioned many times, but it seems that it has never been said that it is a reversible spell with a counter-curse.
What is a counter-curse?
It can be understood as a spell specially used to restrain Sectumsempra.
So why is this an advantage?
Because except for the counter-curse, other spells cannot restrain the wound caused by it.
In other words, the wound caused by Sectumsempra, neither potions nor various healing spells will have any effect.
The only effective one is the "vulnera sanentur" spell created by Professor Snape.
The wound on Lockhart's stomach healed quickly, then Lucas pointed his wand at his head and said: "obliviate"
Lockhart's eyes went blank as Lucas directly cleared all his memories.
It is his punishment for deceiving the world, and he must admit that it also felt really good.
After doing the world a massive favor, he leisurely strolled towards the pile of rubble that blocked the way ahead.
With the Void Escape magic, Lucas passed through the stone pile with ease.
When he arrived at the Chamber of Secrets the young Voldemort was writing his name in the air with his wand.
Harry watched the letters reform in the air, forming a dramatic self-introduction in front of him.
"I am Lord Voldemort!"
"Voldemort?" Harry looked at the ghost-like boy in front of him in surprise.
"Yes, Voldemort is my past, present and future."
Riddle brushed Harry's hair aside with his wand.
"I'm curious, how can a baby without any magical talent repel the greatest wizard of all time?"
"You're not the greatest wizard, Dumbledore is!"
Just as Harry finished speaking, an ethereal melody sounded in the secret room.
It is rumored that the singing of the phoenix can give courage to those who are pure in heart, and it can also increase the fear in the hearts of evil people.
Lucas, who is hidden by the side, watched Fawkes appearing in mid-air with a playful look in his eyes.
'It's really such a big coincidence that this Phoenix came here!'
As Tom saw Fawkes flying toward them, his expression was full of vigilance.
Of course he wasn't afraid of the phoenix. It is the owner of the phoenix, Albus Dumbledore, who he is afraid of.
But seeing the Phoenix just threw down a battered sorting hat he had a mocking look on his face.
"Is this Dumbledore's gift to his champion? A singing bird and a dirty hat?"
After laughing, Riddle started walking towards the giant statue of Salazar Slytherin's face.
He also recounted how he manipulated Ginny to kill Hagrid's roosters, how he made her write on the wall with rooster blood.
In the end, he explained how he forced Ginny to release the basilisk.
"Unfortunately, little Ginny seemed to have noticed something unusual, and she no longer trusted her diary."
"Of course, I didn't want to listen to the stupid thoughts of an eleven-year-old girl every day."
"By the way, I haven't told you yet, this girl's heart is not about you, Harry Potter."
Hearing Tom's ridicule, Harry's expression became very ugly.
Of course he knew who Ginny liked and admired.
"Enough Voldemort, let Ginny go!"
"Oh~ That's not okay, not only will she die today, but you will never leave either!"
Tom opened his arms and spoke in Parseltongue facing the statue.
"Speak to me, Slytherin, the greatest of the Hogwarts Four."
The statue's mouth snapped open, revealing the basilisk coming from within.
Its huge body fell to the ground, and even made the entire room tremble.
Harry was running for the door long before the basilisk came out
Feeling the vibration under his feet he just wanted to find a place to hide quickly where the basilisk couldn't find him.
He didn't dare to turn his head, and was even more afraid of seeing the basilisk's eyes.
"Harry Potter, you should have discovered a long time ago that we are actually very similar, both half-bloods, both raised by those disgusting Muggles."
"We also share the gift of parseltongue."
"But you believed in the wrong person, let me see your skills next!"
"Kill him!" Riddle ordered the basilisk in Parseltongue.
The basilisk turned its head to look at Lucas who was hidden aside.
'Go, girl, play!'
Lucas' voice rang in Medusa's mind. She nodded and quickly chased in Harry's direction.
The pipes in the secret room extend in all directions. Driven consciously by the basilisk, it didn't take long for Harry to run back to the original place.
Lucas then drew his wand making the Sorting Hat fly towards Harry.
He was waiting for the Gryffindor sword to be drawn.
All his hope to find the last secret room is on that naughty sword.
Harry took the Sorting Hat, not sure what the hell Dumbledore wanted him to do with the battered, dirty hat he had given himself.
The moment he was in a daze a light flashed in front of his eyes.
Looking at the hilt of the sword slowly appearing in the sorting hat. As if grasping for a life-saving straw, Harry stretched out his hand and pulled it out.
The sword of Gryffindor returns to the world.
The phoenix song sounded again and Fawkes reappeared with firelight.
The sharp claws and beak were preparing for an attack, and its target was the behemoth entrenched below.
Medusa looked up into the sky, a bird and a snake looked at each other.
Seeing that a big war is about to break out, a sudden, low voice came from the quiet secret room.
"Avada Kedavra"
Green light hit the phoenix in mid-air and Fawkes turned into a flame without even realizing it.
Looking at the ashes on the ground, Lucas knew that in a short while the phoenix would rise from the ashes.
"who!"
Riddle looked towards the direction where the Killing Curse flew out from and the footsteps of a third person sounded in the secret room.
Watching Lucas slowly reveal his figure, Harry said in surprise: "Lucas? Where's Ron? Is he all right?"
Seeing that Harry meeting himself was actually showing such a reaction Lucas sighed.
"Harry, hand me the Gryffindor sword in your hand!"
Harry looked at the sword in his hand, then at Lucas who was walking towards him and finally noticed that something was wrong.
"Why did you attack Fawkes just now? And why did you use the killing curse?"
"Harry, I don't want to explain this to you now, give me the sword in your hand!"
Harry hastily hid the Gryffindor sword behind his back, it looked like he wasn't going to listen to Lucas.
"What a hassle."
Lucas' helpless voice rang in Harry's ear, then he was hit by a white light.
"Petrificus Totalus!"
"I guess you are no stranger to this spell!"
As soon as Lucas finished speaking, he appeared in front of Harry.
Reaching out, he took the Gryffindor sword and examined it carefully. This goblin-made sword has a crystal-clear ruby inlaid on the hilt while the blade of the sword is bright and shiny.
On one side of the sword body, the name of Godric Gryffindor is also engraved.
Lucas tried to infuse magic into the blade and found out that the sword of Gryffindor is the same as his goblin sword.
Both can contain magic power and make use of it.
"Hey, who are you? And why didn't the basilisk attack you?!"
At this time, Tom Riddle, who had been ignored for a long time, finally couldn't stand it anymore.
Along with his roar, Lucas finally looked at him.
