The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

The strong stench made the two visitors who had just landed frowned.

Even the phoenix Fox couldn't help flapping its wings and flew onto Jon's shoulder.

"Let's go!" Jon Hart pinched his nose and said pretending to be nonchalant.

Then, he raised the wand in his hand, so that the light emitted by the wand was enough to illuminate the way forward.

The road ahead was very dark, and they could only see a small area in front of them; the light of the wand cast their shadows on the wet wall, looking like monsters, slightly gloomy in the dark; It's wet, and it makes creaking and loud noises when you walk on it...

Jon lowered his wand to illuminate the ground, and he could see the remains of some small animals everywhere on the ground; it seemed as if they had been eaten by something, but these bones could be seen to be some years old.

Harry Potter on the side couldn't help shivering, because everything in front of him couldn't help but remind him of the terrible monster he encountered in the same position four years ago...

"Don't be afraid anymore, that monster is already dead..." Harry murmured to himself, and then he led the way forward, turning a dark bend in the tunnel.

And Jon Hart's movements seemed to be unhurried, walking forward while observing the surroundings with great interest——

More precisely, he was looking for traces of magic around him...

Even after thousands of years, the magic that created this secret room still has traces left behind everywhere. That is the trace of magic left by one of the founders of Hogwarts, Salazar Slytherin.

In this way, they continued to walk forward step by step, turning one turn after another along the tunnel.

For some reason, Harry felt a little uncomfortable, and now he just hoped to get to the end of the tunnel as soon as possible.

Finally, they turned around a bend, and they finally found a solid wall blocking their way. More precisely, it was actually a stone gate—two intertwined snakes were engraved on the stone gate. His eyes were set with large, shining emeralds.

Harry finally breathed a sigh of relief, he quickly approached, and then cleared his throat, the emerald eyes of the two intertwined snakes seemed to be twinkling.

Soon he was speaking in a low, hoarse hiss that Jon could not understand.

The two snakes parted, and the stone wall split in the middle, sliding slowly to the sides and disappearing.

...

What came into view was a huge auditorium——

"Is this the Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets?" Jon looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

After this not-so-pleasant journey, they were now at the outermost end of a long, dimly lit vast auditorium. There are many stone pillars engraved with coiled and entangled serpents all around, supporting the ceiling that dissolves in the darkness of the heights.

The whole room is filled with green and mysterious atmosphere, giving people a very strange sense.

They walked forward step by step until they reached the outermost side of the huge space. When they were parallel to the last pair of stone pillars, a huge statue as tall as the room itself suddenly appeared in front of them——

Jon tilted his neck so that he could see the huge face clearly: it was an old face, with a long sparse beard, and an extremely stern expression...

Salazar Slytherin!

One of the Big Four who created Hogwarts, one of the most famous wizards in British history, and one of the most mysterious wizards...

Although he was actually the first Headmaster of Hogwarts. Among the various records, there is actually very little about him...

Among these records, the more famous among them, for example, he is one of the earliest recorded Parseltongues, and he is also a quite accomplished master of Legilimency.

In addition, he firmly opposed the entry of Muggle-born wizards into Hogwarts. For thousands of years, wizards who held the view of "pure blood" have always regarded themselves as Slytherin inheritors.

And after ideological conflicts with several other friends, he finally chose to leave Hogwarts and go to the far side of the ocean...

This enigmatic wizard, even Jon, saw him now for the first time; for there was no portrait of him even on the wall of portraits in the headmaster's office at Hogwarts.

And Harry Potter didn't approach the statue, but looked around aimlessly, as if he felt something was wrong.

And Jon Hart gradually approached the huge statue, turning around it while looking up at some details around it.

Soon, he found some recorded text on the back of the statue's head——

"It's the summer of 998, and Godric and I had a big fight, so violent that he threw his white gloves in front of me, and he looked like he was going to break with me.

The content of the quarrel was still the decision for Muggle-born wizards. Godric had always harbored a naive illusion that Muggle-born wizards were an unrivaled talent, and that their presence could strengthen the wizarding bloodline. But there is no doubt that he was wrong!

He had forgotten the purpose of Hogwarts. The four of us founded Hogwarts to protect and teach defenseless young wizards, to keep them and the school itself safe from outsiders.

But once Hogwarts is fully opened to the outside world, greater dangers await us. Those agents of the church will mix in and make clear the secrets of Hogwarts; and those scum and traitors among wizards will also stare at us.

There is no doubt that Godric's recklessness and naivety will destroy everything at Hogwarts!

Helga tried to persuade him, but her efforts failed without incident; it was not her fault, Helga was too mild-mannered for such a thing. If Rowena was still alive, she might be able to stop all of this, but unfortunately, she has been away from this world for more than a year.

Parting ways seemed inevitable, and I had no choice but to—"

"Jon!" Harry Potter suddenly screamed from the sidelines, forcing Jon to turn his attention away from the engraving on the statue.

"What's the matter, Harry?" Jon asked, frowning.

"I know something's wrong..." Harry stammered.

At the same time Harry pointed to an open space on the floor: "It's... because... the corpse of the basilisk... was supposed to be here... but now... it's gone..."
