Chapter 503: Black Lake and the corpse
"It\'s great, they retreat, it seems that this medicine is useful!" Lupin said in a hoarse voice looking at the lake with a stiff expression.
Ivan also looked over. In the faint fluorescence of the magic wand, the pale arm that stretched out on the lake slowly fell silent.
Soon, the black lake surface returned to its previous calm.
But whether it\'s Ivan, Sirius or Lupin, looking at the calm and waveless lake in front of them, they are a little bit shy.
Judging from the number of arms that emerged just now, there are probably hundreds of corpses in the fluorescent-covered area...
While the whole lake is too big to see, Ivan eagerly hopes that most of the corpses in the entire lake will be attracted here, otherwise, the number of corpses will be more terrifying than he thought...
hundreds...thousands...thousands?
or...
Ivan didn\'t dare to think about it any more, it was a number he couldn\'t accept.
calmed down for a while, Ivan remembered something, turned to Sirius and Lupin, and said apologetically.
"I\'m sorry, it seems that I was careless just now, and I rashly lit up the lake and disturbed them..."
"No, don\'t blame you! It\'s not a matter of light. We still maintain the effect of the lighting spell, but they haven\'t approached it. This shows that it\'s not the light that attracted their attention." Sirius shook his head stiffly, calmly. Analysis Road.
"We should have too many people coming in!"
Lupin\'s voice rang, and he took Sirius\' words and continued. "Kreacher told us that he had accompanied Voldemort and Regulus in, and the corpses at the bottom of the lake did not move."
"So two people are safe. This is the limit set by Voldemort. An intruder carries a victim!" Ivan said with a guess from his mind, mobilizing his memory.
Voldemort certainly does not want anyone to steal his Horcrux, but considering the possibility of transferring the Horcrux in the future, some restrictions must be relaxed, such as allowing two people to come in!
If the number of intruders breaks through this limit, the huge tide of corpses will overwhelm all the intruders.
But thanks to Kreacher, they knew the situation in advance, prepared the corresponding potion, shielded their own vitality, and made the underwater corpses sense that the number of living creatures on the shore was zero, and then they fell silent again.
"Yes, that\'s probably it!" Sirius nodded, but he hesitated again when he remembered what happened to Regulus.
"I think it’s not safe even if two people come in, because Regulus was dragged into the water. That means that once someone drinks the potion placed in the center, the corpses will become restless and attack all approaching. Water creatures, and overturn their ships!"
On an isolated island in the middle of the lake, with a drag of drinking potions, facing hundreds or even thousands of corpses, what a desperate sight, let alone normal intruders have to row out in a boat , Fight against the corpses on the lake!
Thinking of this, Ivan was not so thankful that he didn\'t have to do such a dangerous thing.
Although what they are doing now may be more dangerous than this...
Just as the three of them analyzed the various restrictions in the cave, Kreacher was also trying hard to recall how to raise the boat.
The old house elf went around, and finally stopped on the bank on the right side, looking around blankly.
"That ship should be near here, gentlemen! The chain may be invisible, Kreacher can’t see it!" Kreacher reached out and grabbed it in the void, but it might be that it was too short and it was enough. Less than.
"Aparecium~" Sirius lifted his wand and waved it. The wave of magic power spread from the tip of the wand to all directions. The water waves on the lake were slightly rippling, but nothing happened.
"The magic set by Voldemort himself must not be so easy to break! Let\'s look for it carefully!" Lupin shook his head, raised his hand and paddled in the air, looking for the chain hidden in the void.
Ivan also stepped forward to help, but he found nothing, which made him frown, wondering if the method they were thinking about was right.
What did Dumbledore do in the original time and space? Grab the chain in the void and pull it out?
How should I catch it?
After many years, Yifan\'s memory in this area has become a bit fragmented. If he hadn\'t practiced Occlumency, he could organize his memory by himself, I am afraid he would have forgotten about it.
And Dumbledore\'s magic level is very high, what he can do, he may not be able to do it.
No, it\'s wrong! How did Na Regulus raise the boat?
Ivan thought for a while, and felt that it shouldn\'t be that difficult. Regulus could not be stronger than them, it should be because he had neglected something.
Ivan\'s heart moved, tried to attach magic power to his hand, and continued to explore as before. After a while, his palm touched a cold, long, and very hard object.
"Found it!" Ivan called out Sirius and Lupin who were still looking for, and then pulled his hands vigorously.
Suddenly there was a dingling sound in the void. It was the sound of the chain crossing the surface and the last straightening, and then a thick green copper chain suddenly emerged from the depths of the lake and wrapped around Ivan’s arm like a snake. .
Ivan struggled to step back and prepared to pull the boat out. His expression was very difficult, his face changed, and he almost let go, because he sensed that his magic power was being swallowed quickly.
Sirius and Lupin hurriedly followed Ivan\'s appearance, attached magic to their hands, and tried to pull the chain to help, but they soon discovered that they couldn\'t pull it at all, and no matter how hard they were, it would not help.
"Don\'t waste your time, it will only absorb the magic of my own person!" Ivan sighed and guessed how the ship works.
Since he has lost so much magic power, he can\'t give up all his previous efforts. Ivan simply pulls the chain hard again, and a lot of magic power is poured into the rusty copper chain from the place where his palm touches.
When the magic power was nearly half consumed, the chain shook abruptly, pulling something up from the dark bottom of the lake.
It was a small boat. The bow suddenly appeared to the surface like a ghost, and the hull also floated out like a chain, glowing green light, floating towards them.
The strange thing is that the Black Lake is still calm, as if the ship doesn\'t exist, it\'s just an illusion.
