Hogwarts Crawler.

The palm on the ground was almost as tall as Adam. This Sphinx was not much smaller than the statue next to the pyramid, and it was much more in line with Adam's fantasy of Anubis than the previous ball of hair.

Thinking of Uther's fur ball, Adam's lips curled up slightly. He held the Staff of Darkness in one hand and summoned a Clow Card with a fish on the face with the other hand.

"Answer my question, what..."

"The seal is lifted—"

The tall Sphinx was frozen into a lump of ice in the blink of an eye, and then shattered into ice crystals all over the sky the next moment.

This Sphinx is not a real magical animal, but a golem created by ancient magic. Its weakness is low temperature. Even if it is killed, it will reappear after a few days, so Adam did not feel sorry for Uther at all when he killed it.

"Step 4: Avoid the magical animals on the road and find the passage."

Pushing open the huge door and continuing forward, the passage on the map left by Uther was in the southwest corner. He might encounter magical animals such as the Nephilim and the Scorpion Tailed Beast along the way, but Adam was not worried about this at all.

"Raise a snake for a thousand days, use it for a moment."

Adam unscrewed the glass bottle, released the basilisk, and lifted the magic that made it shrink.

"Modu, go ahead and clear the way."

"hiss……"

The basilisk moved its body, opened its eyes and looked at Adam, and after spitting out its tongue and barking meaninglessly, it obediently went in the direction Adam pointed.

Don't ask, the only thing you know is that it also had a bite of the basilisk soup that Adam cooked, and it was also watching when the basilisk's eyeball was roasted.

On one side, there is meat for every meal, and on the other side, there are snake meat stews and grilled eyeballs. The basilisk, now named Medu, can still tell the difference, and it also believes in the law of the jungle.

The basilisk's scales rubbed against the gravel on the ground, making a rustling sound, which caused similar sounds to be heard around it, but they were all moving away from Adam. It was obvious that the power of the snake king could at least scare away the runes.

The group of scorpion-tailed beasts that were crawling towards Adam died instantly after just one encounter with the basilisk because of their eye structure similar to that of spiders. The ground was covered with the corpses of the scorpion-tailed beasts.

The road was smooth and Adam walked on the road crushed by the basilisk, and the scorpion-tailed beast's shell creaked under his feet.

If it were normal times, he might think about how to eat this thing, or get a few to raise, but he was obviously not in the mood for that now.

Finally arriving at the passage on the map, Adam looked at the hieroglyphic writing on the wall in front of him:

"The last step is the Eye of Horus that Uther marked on the map, but there's no instructions on how to trigger it..."

Adam looked at the three Eyes of Horus on the wall, didn't see anything wrong, so he reached out and touched them one by one.

"Ok?"

There's a bulge on the last Eye of Horus? But it looks normal...

Adam tried to button it, but it didn't work, so he pressed harder.

"Rumble--"

The wall suddenly split along the lines of the sacred text, slowly sinking into the wall to the left and right, revealing a dim passage.

The ball of light floated into the passage, and Adam could see the entrance to the passage with new hieroglyphic writing on the wall.

The general meaning is that the underworld is ahead, and any living person who enters will never be able to return to the world again.

"Underworld..."

Putting away the Medusa, Adam ran his fingers across the holy book that symbolized the underworld, then stepped resolutely into the passage holding the Staff of Darkness.

"boom--"

As soon as he stepped into the passage, he heard the sound of a mechanism behind him. The walls that had been retracted on both sides were about to close again. Adam quickly took out a candy cane and pushed it forward.

“Ka-ka…”

The candy with protective magic was indestructible and stuck firmly between the walls that were about to close. Then, under the magic of the big name, it pushed the walls on both sides back.

Leaving a way out, Adam stepped forward and found a piece of linen hanging from above at the end of the road.

Adam remembered that when he came to Egypt last time, Uther seemed to have mentioned this mechanism, behind the false door of the pyramid. Except for the descendants of the pharaoh, anyone who passed through this thing would fall into the underworld and never come back.

It feels a bit like the veil in the Hall of Death in the Department of Mysteries in the British Ministry of Magic?

Adam picked up the linen with the Dark Staff and walked straight over.

The protective magic around his body was triggered in an instant, and Adam could clearly feel the changes in the surrounding environment.

"Is this the underworld?"

"Strictly speaking, this is not the underworld, but the place of judgment, the border between life and death, and the country ruled by the god Anubis."

The sudden voice did not scare Adam. He nodded in realization:

"Fengdu City, the Mysterious Land, Erebus..."

In an instant, the border between life and death seemed to have changed directly from the kingdom of God ruled by Anubis to a shared apartment where a group of gods lived together.

The voice in the dark was silent for a moment, and then continued as if nothing had happened:

"Come forward, creatures who have entered the underworld, and accept the test of judgment..."

Adam's eyes turned slightly cold, he tightly gripped the Staff of Darkness and continued forward.

This time, I really reached the end of the passage. After walking out of the door, the road ahead led to a circular platform, surrounded by an extremely vast space with no visible boundaries. In the center of the circular platform was a golden scale, with both ends of the scale balanced at this time - there was nothing on the left side of the scale, and an ostrich feather stood on the right side of the scale.

"The living who have entered the underworld..."

A huge jackal head poked out from the endless darkness, and He spoke slowly:

"I am Anubis. Hand over your heart and I will judge whether you can move on..."

As the jackal head who called himself Anubis finished speaking, the protective magic on Adam was triggered, and nothing else happened.

The scene was a bit awkward for a while...

"Did you take out the heart of someone else and put them on trial in the past few days?"

Adam looked at Anubis and said loudly.

"Ah... the one who broke the rules."

Anubis frowned slightly as he looked at Adam whose heart had not been taken out, but he did not refuse to answer:

"Geb's protection cannot protect him forever. His soul will eventually fall into the lake of fire and be devoured by Amit, just like another person who broke the rules... His death is near."

It's hard, the fist is hard.

"How can I get his heart and soul back?"

"Blasters will be damned forever in hell!"

Taking a deep breath, Adam slowly raised the Dark Staff...

Chapter 90 Loopholes in the Rules

Big brand! Powerful brand! Fighting brand!

After using the Clow Cards to buff himself a few layers, Adam swung the Staff of Darkness and rushed forward.

"You...what do you want to do? I am Anubis! Ah - my face!"

"Anubis, huh?"

"Stop, stop, stop - stop hitting me! You blasphemer! You will surely be damned - my eyes!"

"Blasphemer, huh? Going to hell forever, huh?"

"Ouch! Wait a minute - wait for me to get ready first! I'm going to bite you!"

"Bite me, right?"

“What is that? No, no—Ah! Ah!!!”

……

"You're playing tricks on me... You think if you change your voice I won't recognize you as the one that told me to move forward? You have to be beaten before you can communicate normally, right?"

Adam moved his wrist:

"Can you tell me now? Or should I help you remember how to communicate with others?"

"Wow... This is the artifact left here by the god Anubis. I am just responsible for following the procedures. They broke the rules, and there is nothing I can do. QAQ"

The jackal head that was transformed by the small card into the same size as Adam covered its swollen face and body, huddled in the corner of the circular platform and cried as it spoke. Most of its teeth were knocked out, causing its voice to sound a little strange, and tears slid down the corners of its eyes with difficulty from between its swollen eyelids.

"Rules? What rules?"

Adam frowned and glanced at the Libra:

"Are you trying to say that Uther can't pass Anubis's trial? How is that possible!"

Anubis's scales judge whether a person has done more good or bad things in his life, not whether a person has only done good things. It's okay for Uther's father, but how could Uther, a Hufflepuff, fail to pass the judgment of the scales?

"How should I know? He just didn't pass... Then another person used Geb's amulet to block the punishment for the person being judged and teleported them away, so the rules deprived him of his soul."

Adam replayed the situation in his mind based on what the guy said:

Uther and his son came here and decided to let Uther come forward for trial. However, Uther failed, so Uther's father replaced Uther's heart with the scarab and activated the door key. He disrupted the trial and his soul was taken away...

According to the judgment rules of Anubis in mythology, Uther was indeed the most likely person to pass the judgment among the people at that time. Although there were still a few questions, such as where the priests had gone, that was not the key point now.

"Where is that heart and soul now?"

"Uh, the two souls are in the cage of the lake of fire below, and the heart is protected by Geb's amulet. It's with me now."

The Jackal Head answered truthfully.

Uther's soul is here too?

"Give me that heart!"

"Forehead……"

"Ok?"

Seeing Adam pick up the Dark Staff again, the Jackal Head felt a pain all over his body that he couldn't tell whether it was residual pain or phantom pain. He quickly handed over the heart that sealed his soul and explained:

"This heart is still bound by the rules of the god Anubis. It's useless even if you take it back. When Geb's amulet loses its effect, his soul will still be doomed forever... ahem, he will still die."

Adam took the heart from the jackal head and felt it beating in his hand. He felt his own heart twitch as well.

"How do I untie Anubis's bonds?"

"The trial is over, unless you can find the god Olysias or the god Ra... Oh! I remember! The trial was actually interrupted! It's not over yet! I'll think of a way! I'll think of another way!"

The Jackal Head quickly changed his words while holding the calf that was stepping on his chest.

Looking at the Dark Staff that was pressed against his eyes and the look in the kid's eyes, the Jackal had no doubt that if his answer did not satisfy the other party, the spike would probably pierce into his own eyeballs.

The Jackal's mind had never worked so fast in the past few thousand years:

"Got it! There is a way!"

"Say!"

"Anubis left a set of rules for the operation of the scales, but Anubis did not strictly regulate every step of the scales trial! There are loopholes in the rules!"

Originally, Anubis personally conducted every trial, so of course there was no need to set any rules for himself. However, Anubis suddenly left the rules and disappeared with it. It had never even seen the god Anubis in person, and the rules had not been tested in practice, so it was normal for there to be loopholes.

The jackal felt as if the god Thoth had blessed it at this moment, and a brilliant idea formed in its mind:

"Only the heart or the Feather of Truth of Goddess Maat can be placed on the scale. Only when both ends of the scale are of equal weight or the heart is lighter than the Feather of Truth of Goddess Maat can it pass the judgment - so if both ends of the scale are hearts and are of equal weight, both hearts can pass the judgment!"

Thank you, Thoth! Thank you, Anubis!

Before the Jackal could congratulate himself on his wisdom for long, he found that the little devil's eyes had fallen on the position of his heart in his chest.

Jackal Head: “???”

"Wait a minute! There's no way my heart weighs as much as that guy's heart!"

"It's okay, just cut off the extra part."

Jackal Head: “!!!”

The Jackal Head really wanted to say stop, wait a minute, maybe there is other way.

But there are only three hearts here right now. Apart from the one that needs to be freed, one belongs to the kid in front of him and the other belongs to him. There is no need to think about which one to use to balance the scale.

His brain was working rapidly, and the Jackal felt that he could still save the situation:
