Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 162 What Voldemort is afraid of

"Professor, this boat can't accommodate so many people, right?"

Harry pointed at the small wooden boat that seemed to be only big enough for one person. His worry was not unreasonable. The entire wooden boat looked very small. Although it could barely fit the five of them plus Kreacher on it, the ferry was still there. Consider the weight and draft of the entire boat.

This kind of small wooden boat can only bear the weight of an adult wizard.

"Don't worry Harry, Voldemort doesn't care how much you weigh." Dumbledore chuckled, "What he cares about is magical power. I think there must be a magic restriction on this ship that can only allow one wizard to pass at a time."

"But, there are so many of us..." Harry looked around. Even if he calculated the magical energy, it was definitely more than that.

"Well, of course he won't take you two into consideration." Dumbledore pointed at Louis and Harry and said, "The magic power of two underage wizards is very small, and this is where Voldemort was negligent."

At this point, Louis had already experienced it at Gaunt's old house. Voldemort didn't care about the power of young people at all, because it was not worth mentioning to him.

"As for Nick and Sirius, I think they have their own ideas." Dumbledore looked at Nick Flamel. The old man nodded, while Sirius looked confused.

"Okay, Harry, Louis, you go up first this time, be careful not to touch the water."

Although Harry was full of doubts, he still took the first step and jumped onto the boat. The strange thing was that after Harry stood firm on it, the boat did not move at all, and even the draft did not occur.

"As expected, it seems that your guess is not wrong, Louis." Dumbledore made a gesture of invitation, and Louis jumped onto the boat with a quick stride.

The boat swayed and sank a little, but it still seemed to be within an acceptable range.

From this point of view, the magic power in Louis' body is indeed much higher than that of Harry. This is due to the previous experience with magic potions, pyramids and Gaunt's house, which makes the magic power in Louis' body show an unstable growth. , but it seems that there is still a certain distance between him and an adult wizard.

However, one thing made Louis feel strange. He had heard Professor Flitwick say that the determination of magic power in the human body also included the magic items carried with him.

Louis also has the rare Ten Thousand Life Stone on his body. The magic power of this stone is immeasurable. He was still worried that the boat would not be able to withstand such magic power, but now it seems that the power of the stone is not included in it.

Dumbledore started to move. When he stepped into it with one foot, the boat began to sink rapidly. Louis and Harry almost couldn't stand still. Fortunately, Dumbledore stepped in and pulled it in time.

When Lao Dengtou stood firmly on it, the boat gradually stabilized. Although the draft was nearly half of the depth, fortunately it did not roll over.

"I think this is the limit. I'm afraid Voldemort will not let a second adult wizard on board." Dumbledore looked at the draft of the ship and said.

"But, Sirius and the others..."

Before Harry could finish speaking, he saw Nicolas Flamel on the shore extending a hand to Sirius in a friendly manner. Although Sirius was strange, he still held the master of alchemy out of his trust in Dumbledore. hand.

A strange thing happened. Sirius felt that the magic power all over his body was instantly suppressed without a trace, but he did not feel any discomfort. He looked at Nicoléme in surprise, but the old man just smiled and didn't say anything.

He pulled Sirius and strode into the boat, but the boat didn't move at all as the two adult wizards entered.

"How could this happen?" Harry looked puzzled. If the combined strength of the two of them was not as powerful as Harry, then he would never believe it even to death.

"This is a secret. I'll explain it to you when we get to the shore." Nicolème smiled, pretending to be mysterious.

Kreacher was the last one to board the boat, because it was a magical creature, and the boat could detect the magical power of wizards and was deaf to magical creatures, so Kreacher's addition did not cause any changes to the boat.

Dumbledore pulled the chain, and the boat started to move. The five of them were crowded together. The small space on the wooden boat made no one dare to make any big movements. If they were not careful, they would risk falling into the water and being surrounded by the Inferi.

The boat did not require manpower to move at all, as if an invisible hand was pulling the boat toward the center. Soon they could no longer see the rock wall. Except for the absence of waves, the whole boat seemed to be sailing on the sea.

"Oh, God." Harry looked towards the lake, and the sight before him shocked him. He knew that the lake was full of Inferi, but he didn't expect that there would be such a huge number.

Louis followed Harry's gaze and saw that all the Inferi in the lake seemed to be asleep. It was deathly silent. Except for a few corpses floating on the water, the others were lying quietly in the lake.

But Louis believes that once they are touched, it will be an unprecedented hell on earth.

"There is nothing scary about corpses, besides they are in a sleeping state." Dumbledore said while standing on the bow of the ship, "It's just like darkness, but Voldemort doesn't know that the thing that scares him most is death. "

"But when we face death and darkness, everything is unknown, nothing more. I think Nick should have a deep understanding of this."

"It's just that you have lived for more than six hundred years and have experienced all the life you should experience, so death is no longer so scary." Nick Flamel continued. For him, death may be as simple as falling asleep.

"But one popped up before, when I tried to use the Flying Charm." Harry said.

"Yes, this is also Voldemort's mechanism. As long as you use a spell, no matter what you summon, whether the thing is inside or not, they will stop you." Dumbledore said, "But don't be afraid, the Inferi are afraid of light and warmth. , if necessary, we can protect ourselves with light and fire."

"I think we're almost there." Dumbledore pointed forward with his wand.

After a few minutes, the boat seemed to hit something and stopped. Louis raised his glowing wand, and he saw them arriving on the island of smooth rocks.

"Be careful with the lake." Dumbledore warned again. Everyone got off the boat one after another. Louis noticed that Nicolas Flamel and Sirius didn't let go of their hands until they got off the boat. At this moment, Sirius was holding hands for a long time. When I started, my hands were already covered with beads of sweat.

"What the hell is going on?"

Everyone gathered around the two of them, and Nicolème smiled mysteriously, then raised his right hand that was tightly clasped with Sirius.

Louis saw a golden fluid substance flowing freely in his hand, and then he pointed lightly with his other hand holding the wand, and the fluid substance began to gather, and finally a very beautiful golden ball appeared in his palm. A different kind of light shines in the dark cave.
