Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

“Da da da…”

Li Weide and Tom strode through the empty, deep tunnel.

After a series of puzzle-solving processes, this section of the road no longer presented any riddles.

Moreover, the maze had disappeared, replaced by a straight tunnel.

However, this tunnel did not seem as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Judging from the scattered debris around the tunnel, it must have been fraught with danger back then.

After the exploration of predecessors, many dangers had disappeared, so they were able to advance so steadily.

Tom looked at the scattered fragments beside him, feeling slightly dissatisfied.

“Why did Slytherin make this road so difficult to traverse? Puzzles and traps… Shouldn't only his descendants be able to enter? Why create obstacles for his own descendants?”

“I think this might be a 'trial' he left for his descendants. After all, even among descendants, talents vary. Only by passing the trial can they obtain his legacy… Isn't that reasonable?” Li Weide said with a smile.

Tom felt a sting in these words, piercing his heart!

Even his back, bruised by the stone bricks just now, didn't hurt as much…

“So, I'm the least talented one here…” Tom said sadly.

If Li Weide hadn't pulled him, he might have been done for just now…

So, strictly speaking, his trial this time was a failure!

How could Tom, who had always thought highly of himself, not feel a sense of frustration?

“Don't be sad, Tom. You're only twelve years old now! You're already stronger than many twelve-year-olds,” Li Weide comforted him.

Really… besides using age as an excuse, Li Weide didn't know how else to console him.

However, Tom felt a little better after hearing this.

At least he had another reason to comfort himself.

After all, the other Slytherin descendants who broke into this place, if not adult wizards, should at least be upperclassmen!

Just as Tom was comforting himself, Li Weide suddenly stopped.

“What's wrong?” Tom asked.

“Tom, it seems you still have a chance to prove yourself!” Li Weide said with a smile.

“Huh? Why do you say that?”

“Because there are still some 'dangers' that haven't been dealt with.” As soon as Li Weide finished speaking, two stone knight statues walked out of the recesses on both sides of the tunnel!

These two knight statues were about four meters tall, one holding a two-handed greatsword and the other holding a halberd. Their originally dim stone eyes were now emitting a sinister red light.

At this moment, the eyes of these two knight statues were fixed on Li Weide and Tom!

Tom nervously drew his wand.

However, before he could speak, he felt himself being pushed forward by Li Weide!

However, Li Weide, the strongest combatant on their side, stood behind him.

A bad feeling arose in Tom's heart, “What are you doing? Let's go together!”

“Tom, weren't you lacking confidence just now? So, you have to fight this battle yourself! You have to prove yourself! Regain your confidence! After all, this is a trial for you Slytherin descendants, isn't it?” Li Weide said as he pushed him forward!

“You freaking…” Tom didn't have time to curse.

Because the two knights, after locking onto their enemies, had already begun charging with heavy steps!

Moreover, because he was standing in the front, the two statues directly locked onto Tom as their first target!

This made it even more impossible for Tom to care about speaking!

However, Tom wasn't a simple-minded fool, having been with Li Weide for so long.

So, when the two statues rushed close and simultaneously raised their weapons to smash him, he directly used the Levitation Charm to fly up!

Then, the two statues relied on inertia and slammed heavily towards Tom's back!

Tom looked over with joy!

Didn't want to participate in the battle? Now they're directly crashing into me, I don't believe you Li Weide won't fight!

However, Tom's heart immediately sank, because Li Weide, who had retreated behind him just now, had disappeared without a trace!

“Bang!”

Tom suddenly felt his body, which was originally light and飘飘 under the effect of the Levitation Charm, suddenly sink downwards!

“Li Weide! You…”

“Bang!”

Before Tom could utter his curse, he quickly rolled to the side, just barely dodging the Halberd Knight statue's attack.

The halberd slammed into the ground with a loud noise, and then a deep pit appeared in the floor…

It seemed that the halberd was real! Not made of stone!

Tom didn't have time to be distracted and think carefully, and hurriedly lowered his head, then a greatsword grazed his head and chopped past!

“Bang!”

The greatsword missed and also smashed a deep pit in the wall of the tunnel!

Tom's heart turned cold when he saw this!

At the same time, he also felt a chill on his head…

Tom touched his head and then found that his originally flowing black hair had been shaved into a buzz cut again!

However, he no longer had the mind to think about his hair or criticize Li Weide.

Now… surviving is the most important thing!

“Protego!”

“Bang!”

Before Tom could get up, he used a complete Shield Charm.

Then, his Shield Charm was shattered by the Greatsword Knight with one sword!

And Tom also took this opportunity to quickly stand up and distance himself from the two statues!

Tom below was fighting for his life, while Li Weide was floating in the air watching the show.

And he was watching with great interest…

This is what it means to have stone golems in action!

This speed! This power! Only combat puppets with this kind of combat power can threaten wizards!

Those statues that slowly walked over and attacked in goose steps like in the movies… What's the difference between them and living targets for wizards with wands?

However… if that's the case, is this intensity a bit too much for Tom?

Thinking of this, Li Weide silently clenched his beech wood wand and carefully watched the battle below.

He had to keep an eye on it, Tom couldn't die here!

“Confringo!”

“Crack!”

“Boom!”

An Explosion Charm that Tom unleashed with all his strength.

Was actually blocked by the Greatsword Knight with one sword!

The blocked Explosion Charm directly exploded a huge pit next to the tunnel!

Obviously, these knights' weapons were also magically enhanced by Slytherin!

Tom was numb, this intensity is wrong!

It's okay if the weapons are enhanced, but this reaction, this speed… it doesn't seem like a clumsy puppet at all!

Tom's daze was only for a moment. Having been abused by Li Weide so many times, his reaction was still very fast.

“Expelliarmus!”

Although this Disarming Charm wasn't as powerful as the Explosion Charm, it seemed to be unexpectedly useful!

Under Tom's surprised gaze, the halberd of the knight statue beside him flew directly out of its grasp…

But the next second, the surprise in Tom's eyes turned to blankness again.

Because that halberd was flying straight towards him!

"What the heck…" Tom's face turned green.

Fortunately, he was still young and small.

The halberd grazed his scalp again and landed behind him…

"Clang!"

The metal halberd slammed into the ground, sparks flying! It emitted a crisp metallic clang!

"This isn't right! I can't beat them!" Tom raised his head and shouted loudly, "Vede, save me!"

The newest novel is first published on 6 9 book bar!

"Use your brain! Tom!" Vede shouted from above. "You are a shrewd Slytherin, not a brute with a sword in your left hand and a wand in your right!"

Vede's sentence was too long. By the time he finished speaking, Tom's Protego had shattered twice again…

Successfully casting Protego twice in such a short time, it could be said that Tom's potential had been completely forced out!

Therefore, in this critical moment, Tom's mind was clearer than ever before.

Right now, he had no other thoughts or emotions, only one idea, and that was to survive!

Therefore, after hearing Vede's words, he immediately had a new idea!

Think hard! Think fast! What would Vede do!

If it were Vede, then of course it would be… Avada Kedavra!

No! It's not right to use it here! So, I can't learn from Vede here!

Ah! That's it! Dumbledore! I should learn from Dumbledore!

Think about it, what would Dumbledore do now! I want to fight like Dumbledore!

At this time, Tom kept retreating, and the statue that had lost its halberd also picked up its weapon again!

The two statues rushed up and swung at Tom at the same time!

At this moment, Tom felt that his back had touched the wall!

This long passage had actually come to an end!

"Bang!"

Having no way to retreat, Tom's last Protego shattered again!

The two statues raised their weapons again!

The next second…

"Buzz!"

The blade of the halberd and the blade of the two-handed sword stopped one centimeter away from Tom's nose!

Looking at the blades close at hand, Tom broke out in a cold sweat, even though it was still the middle of winter.

Sweat dripped directly from the tip of his nose…

Just a little bit… and he would have lost his nose!

Several vines fell from the ceiling, firmly binding the weapons of the two statues! Preventing them from advancing an inch!

Tom took the opportunity to roll to the side quickly!

Then the vines were pulled apart and turned back into a few broken wind lamps…

It turned out that, at the critical moment, Tom had turned the wind lamps above into vines, temporarily stopping the weapons from continuing to fall.

However, the crisis had not passed!

Tom glanced at the countless stone fragments beside him, which should all be fragments of the statues that had been smashed by the people who had passed through before.

But now, they were just right to be used!

Tom waved his wand almost without hesitation.

In the face of the crisis, Tom's Transfiguration skills were brought into full play, and countless rubble turned directly into countless vines, wrapping around the two statues one by one!

If one was torn off, there was a second one…

Finally, the two statues were tightly entangled by countless vines and then tripped directly to the ground!

Just as the two statues were struggling on the ground, Tom raised his wand.

"Confringo!"

"Boom!"

After the explosion, the heads of the two statues lying side by side were blown off by this Blasting Curse!

As their heads were shattered, the two statues that had been struggling frantically finally lost their power!

However, Tom was too stimulated at this time and had no intention of stopping at all!

He kept waving his wand, and a series of explosions landed heavily on the two statues.

"Die! Just die!"

The agitated Tom didn't even notice that he hadn't chanted the incantation for the Blasting Curse he had just used…

Vede put away his wand and wiped the sweat from his hands on his robes.

It could only be said that, as expected of Tom Riddle, after forcing out his potential, he actually possessed such powerful strength…

Truly gifted!

Vede floated down and grabbed Tom's shoulder.

"Alright, Tom, now, it's time to calm down…"

"You die too!" Tom backhanded with a Blasting Curse.

However, the agitated Tom only felt a lightness in his hand, and then his wand, made of purple osier, somehow ended up in Vede's hand…

And that Blasting Curse naturally wasn't released.

After the wand left his hand, Tom's emotions finally calmed down.

Afterward, he collapsed weakly to the ground.

However, although Tom collapsed to the ground, his eyes still flickered with excitement when he saw the two statues that had been blown to pieces!

"I… I did it! Vede! Did you see that? I really did it just now! I took them down! These two disgusting piles of mud!" Tom said excitedly.

"Of course, I did see it, and…" Vede stuffed the wand back into Tom's hand, "You didn't use any black magic in the traditional sense just now, did you? Well… except for the Blasting Curse in this situation."

Hearing this, Tom became even more excited, "I was thinking just now, if it were Dumbledore, how would he fight, and then… then I thought of his Transfiguration! And then… I actually did it! It's unbelievable!"

Tom said excitedly, while savoring his amazing operation just now!

How handsome!

However, as soon as he thought about it, the smile on Tom's face suddenly froze…

He seemed to… seem to have attacked Vede just now?

And he raised his hand and used a Blasting Curse that was enough to be fatal?

Tom immediately felt his heart turn to ashes…

Crap! Vede was famous for being petty!

In fact, Tom had ambushed Vede more than once with various reasons not long after he first met Vede.

And every time Vede would grin and pull out his wand, saying something like… "So, you want to have a fair duel with me?"

Every time he said that, he would be beaten miserably…

And now…

"You fought wonderfully this time, Tom, I actually saw a bit of Professor Dumbledore's demeanor in you!" Vede said happily, "So, I won't hold your ambush against you just now."

"That's good…" Tom breathed a sigh of relief, but… he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Now" not holding it against me? Doesn't that mean that he will still hold it against me in the future?

"Why don't you just beat me up here… I'm scared that you're not doing it!"
