Chapter 753： Infernal Corpse

On Sunday morning, Fish did not go to Hogsmeade with the other students after having breakfast in the auditorium, but stayed at the school on the pretext of going to the Forbidden Forest with Hermione.

In fact, he changed into the form of a cat, and was led by Harry wearing an invisibility cloak to the stone monster on the third floor.

"Meow~"

After confirming that there was no one else around, Fisher let out a soft cry, and the stone monster standing in front of them immediately jumped aside, revealing the secret door behind him.

Harry walked into the secret door, took off his invisibility cloak, and went up the spiral staircase with Fish, then pushed open the glowing oak door and entered the headmaster's office.

Dumbledore was already waiting inside, and he had even put on a black travel cloak, the same one he wore when he and Fish went to the Dursleys to pick up Harry.

"You are here."

Dumbledore glanced at the two of them, and finally settled on Harry.

"Harry, I have to warn you in advance that this journey is very likely to encounter extraordinary dangers. Even so, do you want to go with me?"

"Of course!" Harry replied hurriedly before Dumbledore's words fell, for fear that he would go back and leave him behind.

"Very well, then listen."

Dumbledore straightened up and made his request to Harry: "I don't know if Fish told you in advance, but I'm taking you on one condition: you must obey any order I give immediately without question. Include commands like 'run,' 'hide,' or 'go back.' Will you agree?"

Harry glanced sideways at Fish, and found that the cat was pursing his mouth in annoyance.

Obviously, this condition is not for him, and Fish did say yesterday that Dumbledore needs him to be obedient, but Harry was too excited at the time and didn't take it too seriously.

"I promise." Harry replied solemnly.

"Very good." Dumbledore nodded. "Then let's go." He stretched out his hand and said, "Come, put your hand on my arm."

Harry and Fish grabbed his arms from left to right, and Fox flapped his wings and landed on Dumbledore's shoulders.

With the dazzling fire flashing, the three disappeared from the office together.

"That's it, meow? Where Voldemort hid the Horcrux?"

(°ω°≡°ω°)

Fixu turned his head, looked at the surrounding environment curiously, and then said doubtfully, "It's strange, why does Fixu think this place looks familiar?"

"Because this is just a small hillside outside Hogsmeade." Dumbledore explained to Mao Mao after letting Fox go back alone: ​​"Fox doesn't know that place, so he can't send us directly there, don't let go. ."

A whirlpool centered on Dumbledore suddenly appeared, and Harry and Fisch, who were holding his arms, were drawn into it, and the three disappeared again.

After a while, the three of them appeared at the bottom of the cliff, and the ice-cold flowers with the smell of the sea splashed on their faces from time to time.

"Albus, where is the boat, meow?"

Fish remembered that Dumbledore had said that getting to the Horcrux hideout required a boat ride, so he wasn't surprised that they showed up by the sea.

And Harry, who had recovered from his recovery, also found that they were standing on a rock, and couldn't help asking, "Where are we?"

"There is still a long way to go where the boat is, where Voldemort cast the anti-apparition spell, so we can't use the spell to go directly." Dumbledore answered the two people's questions in the order of questioning, "Also Remember what Mrs Cole at the orphanage once mentioned? When Voldemort was a boy, he took two poor children into a cave, and that's where we're going."

He pointed to the inconspicuous crack on the rock wall not far away, and said, "Did you see it? We need to swim through that crack now... Would you mind getting wet?"

"It's okay," said Harry.

Fei Xu, who knows the underwater breathing technique, naturally has no problem, but...

"Wait a minute, meow." He stopped Dumbledore who was about to go into the water, and then took out three small crystal bottles with golden light from his pocket, the same shape as the one in Harry's hand, "In the Before we go in, let's get some Fuling pills first!"

(??ΦωΦ??)つ

Cat Mao handed the Flux in his hand to Harry and Dumbledore, "This is what Fishter bought from Horace for several potion ingredients."

"Ha!" Dumbledore chuckled and shook his head, "I actually forgot the Flux..." He reached out and took a crystal bottle, and then drank all the golden liquid inside without hesitation.

"It's a good feeling," he said, smacking his lips, "I haven't had this stuff for many years."

Fish and Harry also drank the elixir, and Harry, who was still a little nervous, immediately became confident, and Fish immediately had a hunch...

Just let Dumbledore drink those potions.

"Let's go." Dumbledore, who was also in high spirits, said with a relaxed expression, then lit his wand and walked into the sea with it in his mouth.

Following Dumbledore's example, Harry slid lightly from the smooth pebbles into the sea with the glowing wand in his mouth.

And Fish changed back to cat form, and then jumped into the sea with a thud.

The two of them paddled through the dark and narrow channel, climbed the long steps at the end of the channel, and finally reached the cave that Dumbledore spoke of.

Dumbledore walked directly to the rock wall where the secret door was hidden, and then took out the silver knife again.

"What are you doing, Professor?" Harry asked in surprise.

"This is Voldemort's way of protecting the Horcruxes. Those who want to find the Horcruxes must weaken themselves to achieve their goals." Dumbledore explained contemptuously: "But he failed to understand that there are many things better than the flesh. The damage is far more horrific."

As he spoke, he waved the knife in his hand. A flash of silver light flashed, and a crimson spurted from Dumbledore's arm, and the surface of the rock was suddenly covered with shiny, dark red blood.

Feixu immediately went to take a rejuvenation technique for him.

"Thank you, Fish." Dumbledore moved his fully recovered arm and praised, "No matter how many times you read it, your healing spells are so amazing."

At the same time, the outline of a dazzlingly white arch appeared on the wall of the cave, and then the blood-splattered rock in the arch disappeared suddenly, revealing a doorway.

The three walked into the cave, and Dumbledore familiarly pulled the boat up from the bottom of the lake again, and then Fish turned back into a cat and landed on Dumbledore's shoulders, while Harry boarded with him. on the boat.

"What's in the lake?" Harry stared intently at the lake, and the Flux was keeping him away from the lake.

"Infernal corpse." Dumbledore replied in a deep voice: "Voldemort used black magic to refine the corpses of some of the people he killed into walking corpses to serve as his own army."

Following his explanation, Harry and Fish both saw white figures passing by under the lake. Even though the elixir had boosted his confidence, Harry still felt a chill in his body.

Crouching on Dumbledore's shoulder, Fisch also lowered his ears, arched his body, the hair all over his body exploded, and his faint green eyes stared at the lake.

"Don't worry," Dumbledore calmly taught them how to deal with the Inferi. "Like many creatures that live in the cold and the dark, the Inferi is afraid of light and warmth. If we need to, we can Turn to them—fire."

Harry secretly remembered this method in his heart, because he felt inexplicably that it was very likely that he would need to use this knowledge.
