Harry Potter and the Old Ones

Chapter 143: Golden cicada shells

Harry only felt that it was dark in front of him. If it weren't for Ron and Hermione next to him still supporting him, he would probably fall to the ground.

Dumbledore was bending over at this moment, putting his hand on Tiera's heart, as if he was checking something.

"Tiera!" Harry shouted and threw himself to the edge of the hospital bed, holding the edge of the bed with one hand, and the other hand carefully reaching out to Tiera, gently touching Tiera's hand—

As cold and stiff as a corpse.

A suffocating fear gripped Harry's throat, so repressed that he couldn't breathe.

"It's really Tiera?" Dumbledore sighed, straightened up, and stroked his beard in confusion.

"Don't be silly, Albus, can he still be a fake Tiera? The question we care about is why is Tiera injured?" Professor McGonagall asked rudely.

"Oh... I mean, he was petrified, but not just any ordinary, mischievous petrification, but... a very powerful curse of black magic," Dumbledore said, but saw Harry After the anxious expression, he sighed and said, "But please don't worry, Tiera is just petrified, and there is no danger to her life for the time being. If I remember correctly, Mrs. Sprout's mandrake is about to mature. Bar"

"Yes, Mr. Headmaster," said the chubby Professor Sprout.

"Great, once they mature, I have a petrified resurrection potion that can bring Tiera back to life—" Dumbledore said, and patted Harry again.

Harry only felt that his mood suddenly calmed down, as if there was a special magic in Dumbledore, which could calm his inner anxiety.

"So calm down first, Harry, even though what happened to Tierra is a sad accident, but more importantly, we need to figure out why this happened," Dumbledore said. Yella has always been inseparable with you, so can you tell me where Tiera has been today and any unusual behavior?"

"At breakfast today, Tiera suddenly made a prediction... In fact, I don't really understand what Tiera's prediction means... But after making this prediction, Tiera ran out of the auditorium hall... Then we never saw each other again..." Harry said.

"Prophecy? What prophecy?" Dumbledore's beard-stretching hand suddenly paused, and he looked at Professor McGonagall and Snape in surprise, "When will Tierra make a prophecy?"

"Mr. Principal, I personally think that Tierra's so-called prophecy is just Tierra's reasonable inference based on the existing information with his clever little brain and the luck of a blind cat meeting a dead mouse." Facing Dumbledore Snape replied calmly, then lowered his voice and said:

"Dumbledore, you and I have both seen the real prophecy, I'm sure..." Snape paused, "I'm sure it's just a child's prank, or his means to gain attention."

"But almost all of his predictions have come true, haven't they? So whether it's a prediction or a prediction, it shows that the information he gave is reliable." Dumbledore said, "Then, Mr. Potter, can you tell me that this time our What kind of prophecy did little Tiera make?"

"Actually... I'm not very sure what Tierra's prophecy says..." Harry said, then said to Hermione, "Hermione, that piece of paper."

"Here, Professor." Hermione took out the list Tiera had written at breakfast from her pocket and handed it to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore took Tiera's piece of paper, glanced at it, and handed it to Professor McGonagall with a dignified expression.

After Professor McGonagall took a few glances, he handed it over to Flitwick and Professor Sprout.

"The children on the list, protect them immediately." Dumbledore said solemnly, "Tiera may have been attacked, a very malicious attack, and the attack will happen again."

"What kind of attack?" Professor McGonagall asked worriedly. Suddenly, Professor McGonagall seemed to remember something, "Could it be with..."

"Yes, Minerva," said Dumbledore, "I'm afraid this time will be worse than before."

At the same time, when many professors were worried about the "attack" incident, on the platform plaza of the Slytherin chamber exposed to the water a few miles below Tiera's body, a dark red worm block that was close to human shape was tilted up. Erlang legs, sitting on a shabby sofa, with tentacles made of worms flipping through a large book, the cover of the book has a line written in Arabic—

Necronomicon

On the damp ground beside the sofa, more than twenty pale yellow worms were crawling out of a stiff spider one by one.

In front of the spider stood a huge mirror.

Through the reflection of the mirror, the eight-eyed giant spider saw a huge yellow eye.

"Okay, Salazar, you can eat it, I have enough cursed worms." The humanoid worm block sitting on the sofa closed the "Necronomicon" and stood up slowly. The worms that emerged from the giant spiders gathered towards the worm block as if they were being pulled by something—

finally merged in.

This makes the worm block more human-like.

But on the wet floor of the secret room, there were still twenty-five worms wriggling—

Corresponding to the Muggle-born wizards on the list other than Tiera, one per person.

It's an old trick, my prophecy is fulfilled by itself.

Because Tiera still needs Gilderoy Lockhart and Tom Riddle to help him summon Yoggsothoth, so Tiera can't have any operations that arouse their suspicion.

So in order to avoid Tom Riddle's inexplicable revenge, Tiera had to go back to her old business and eat her own worms.

The petrification caused by looking directly into the basilisk's eyes is a weakened version of the Curse of Instant Death.

Although it is not fatal, it will also make Tiera enter a petrified state on the verge of death.

And Gilderoy Lockhart's ritual must ensure that the human body is healthy and fresh—

In other words, after being hit by the petrification curse, Tiera is no longer useful.

But what does it matter if Tiera is useful or not? Anyway, the head on Gilderoy Lockhart can last for more than three months.

So Tiera simply took off her shell, left her unusable body in the school hospital, and transferred her consciousness to the "parasite". Without socializing, she could go to class, and she didn't even need to sleep. Tiera can finally have a lot of money. Time to study the magic of the Necronomicon in an open mind.

As for the other Muggle-born students—

Tierra believes that if Gilderoy Lockhart can't kill himself, he will definitely attack other students, and compared with those students who came from wizard families and have already occupied a place in the magic world, Gilderoy Lockhart is sure Prefer Muggle-born students—

Tiera also believed that Tom Riddle would not expose his own lies for a group of Muggle-born kiddies.

So Tiera had no choice but to jump on the Prophet and let the Hogwarts professors take care of those Muggle-born children—

And Gilderoy Lockhart, who couldn't find a chance to strike, would inevitably ask Tom Riddle for help again.

Tom Riddle continued to cover up the previous lie with another lie—
