Wow! As soon as Godric Gryffindor vanished into thin air, the space in the altar that was distorted by his powerful magic returned to normal, as if nothing had happened. When the light and shadow settled down again, the altar floor was covered with a thick layer of dust that had accumulated over the centuries.

The time barrier that isolated the altar from the outside world still existed, and the woman Cliodna still stood at the magnificent gate of the temple, looking at the direction of the swamp with a hopeful expression, unaware that Bryan had quietly entered the altar and was only one step away from the Twin Serpent Staff that the Druids had coveted for so long.

Bryan stared at the silver sword that was deeply inserted in the ground, his expression dull and confused. The sentence left by Gryffindor before he disappeared was always echoing in his mind.

"The Chamber of Secrets of Salazar Slytherin. All the answers to your doubts are there."

Bryan's breathing unconsciously became heavy and fast. Since he saw that fragment of memory that he had sealed in his subconscious, he knew that one day he would have to face the challenge of opening the Chamber of Secrets, but he didn't expect that the reason for having to open it turned out to be a revelation left by Gryffindor, one of the legendary founders of Hogwarts.

"All your doubts"

How many puzzles were there in Bryan's heart? If he counted them carefully, there were too many to list!

Before entering this secret realm, he just wanted to figure out why the Druid prophecy involved him, and what was the 'place where Merlin sleeps forever' that Cliodna mentioned.

But after entering the secret realm until now, he not only failed to solve the previous problems, but also encountered more mysteries and secrets.

The four founders planned to destroy the Twin Serpent Staff, which was unquestionable. They had left clues and hints throughout history for this purpose.

Salazar Slytherin created the Chamber of Secrets and cultivated a real snake monster, a Basilisk, for this purpose. He also hid his own secrets and legacy in that dark and hidden place.

Godric Gryffindor may have known Bryan's existence through some means, perhaps prophecy or divination, before entering this secret realm, and after entering the secret realm, he helped Bryan approach the Twin Serpent Staff with unheard-of methods and ways. He even used his own sword as a key to unlock the seal of the staff.

"Why do both the four founders and the Druid prophecy think I can pick up the Twin Serpent Staff?"

'The indestructible Twin Serpent Staff only obeys its own master.', Bryan did not forget Gryffindor's words, nor did he forget the scene when Gryffindor tried to pick up the Twin Serpent Staff and this staff burst out with a dazzling light and a terrifying force. That power was so strong that even Gryffindor, one of the greatest wizards of all time, could not resist it and was thrown back by it.

When no one was there, Cliodna's emerald eyes showed some confusion, and her slender and delicate figure revealed a sense of desolation and helplessness. She looked like a lonely fairy who had lost her way in the mortal world.

Bryan stared at the female priest who was probably at the age of just being graduated from Hogwarts in the wizarding world behind the barrier. He sighed heavily and felt some pity in his heart. He didn't know whether the Druid sect knew or not what was on the altar behind the barrier.

He didn't know what they expected to find there, or what they hoped to achieve with it. He didn't know where they got the revelation that the Twin Serpent Staff could help them get rid of the predicament of being hunted.

After seeing the battle on the mural and the strength shown by Gryffindor, he was not doubting the power of the Twin Serpent Staff, but everything existed. The clues all showed that everything was not so simple. He and the Druid sect are probably being used as pawns to achieve some mysterious and sinister goals.

Is it escape or face it now?

Bryan looked around this magnificent temple expressionlessly, weighing and hesitating in his heart. He knew very well that this was a decision that concerned his future destiny. Different choices would lead him to two completely different paths in life. After hesitating for a while, suddenly, Bryan shook his head slightly and showed a mysterious smile.

Actually, there was no need to hesitate, wasn't it? He had already made a choice–

Standing in front of the strange staff, Bryan's heart beat unconsciously faster, and his breathing became rapid. He felt a strange attraction from the Twin Serpent Staff, as if it was calling him to touch it, to claim it as his own.

In these years, he has traveled in the wizarding world and has seen many rare and precious magical items that have left a name in history, but he has always been indifferent to those things. Even the crown of Ravenclaw, one of the four founders' relics, was handed over to Dumbledore without any hesitation.

The real reason for doing this was actually that Bryan has always believed that the power in his own hands was the real power, and the strength obtained by relying on external objects would eventually be stripped away by someone or something stronger.

But this staff gave Bryan a very different feeling. It seemed to contain an ancient and mysterious power that transcended time and space, life and death, light and darkness. It seemed to be able to grant him any wish he desired, as long as he could master it. If he could really use the power in the Twin Serpent Staff, then he would almost immediately become an invincible existence in the contemporary wizarding world!

Whether it was Albus Dumbledore, the greatest white wizard of the present day, or Voldemort, who was lurking in the dark and peeping at the wizarding world, waiting for an opportunity to rise again with his army of Death Eaters; or Gellert Grindelwald, who was bound in Nurmengard and had lost his faith after being defeated by Dumbledore; they would all be nothing to fear!

If he could use the power of the Twin Serpent Staff, Bryan could even integrate all the magical civilizations of all countries on earth, establish a great and magnificent magical dynasty that would rule over all wizards and witches, and march into the Muggle world with his loyal followers.

In the end, he would become a veritable 'earth monarch', the supreme ruler of all living beings! In the contemporary wizarding world where the power of wizards has declined to this point, if Bryan was determined to do so, with his wisdom and the power of the Twin Serpent Staff, no one was qualified to be his stumbling block!
