"It should have been a long time since any creature opened the door of the showroom." Allen looked around the showroom and came to this conclusion.
The several inches of dust in the room and the smell of decay in the air were proof of this.
The three of them focused their gaze on the only crystal ball that was emitting blue light.
The shadows of the mysterious runes were unpredictable, strongly attracting their attention.
Allen was not in a hurry to go in, he cautiously probed at the door.
"This room is the same as Hogwarts, it forbids Phantom Transfiguration." Allen could not help but feel strange.
After confirming that there were no traps on the ground, he stepped in.
"You two wait outside the door, I will scout the way." Hermione and Luna wanted to follow behind him but were stopped by Allen.
However, when he was about five feet away from the glowing crystal ball, the crystal ball suddenly made a loud noise.
The ancient and heavy sound vibrated and instantly filled the entire room, causing the air around it to churn violently as if it was swallowing the mortal world at all costs.
Merlin's gem automatically appeared between Allen's eyebrows, his mind was clear and was not affected by the sound at all.
However, the sound spread outside the door and affected Hermione and Luna. They were in a daze and could not help but turn around and run.
Allen hurriedly followed behind them but no matter if he cursed or closed his ears to listen, it was useless.
While they were running, they did not hesitate to destroy anything that stood in their way, whether it was a stone pillar, a large wooden barrel, or any kind of decoration.
It was only until they ran to the front courtyard that they covered their ears with a dazed look.
Allen concluded that their minds were no longer affected and first sent them to the tower to hide and rest.
Then, he immediately transformed into a phoenix and entered the showroom.
Although he could feel the vibration of the air, Allen who was not affected at all went straight to the crystal ball and kept it in the storage compartment.
After a few echoes, the sound came to an abrupt end.
Allen used Phantom Transfiguration again and returned to Hermione and Luna.
"What is the use of this crystal ball? After leaving the showroom, it stopped making any noise. How strange! "
Hermione was very curious. Ever since she saw Professor Trelawney's prophecy in the divination class, she became interested in this aspect.
Luna also stared at the crystal ball that Allen had placed on the table with great interest.
"Perhaps, as we obtain more information, we will be able to figure it out." Allen felt that it was better to continue exploring and obtain more information before making a decision.
The three of them continued forward, and a passage about twenty feet long appeared in front of them.
The tunnel was filled with the smell of decay, and there was another stone door at the end of the tunnel.
The three of them carefully walked over to the stone door. Allen once again listened for any movement behind the door before pushing it open.
A dusty room appeared in front of them. Dust covered the entire room like snow.
On the north wall, white marble with a slight red pattern was carved into a giant dragon. It was about ten feet tall and quietly looked at Allen and the others.
"How shocking!" Hermione exclaimed.
"Asadron …" Luna's ethereal voice was heard.
"Hello, please answer the question: No summoning, no driving. We appear at night and dissipate during the day. "
A powerful voice suddenly exploded in the secret room.
"It can talk!" Hermione exclaimed.
"Magic Mouth!" Allen said.
"This makes it look like it can really talk." After being surprised, Hermione also remembered this magic.
"Stars." Luna said.
"What?" Allen and Hermione looked at Luna, but Luna looked at the right side of the dragon. A stone door suddenly appeared in front of them.
Allen and Hermione then realized that Luna was talking about the answer to the dragon's riddle.
After listening for the sound behind the door again, Allen pushed the door open. This process was almost instinctive to him.
The room about twenty feet wide was also covered with dust.
There were three inward-facing depressions in the south and north walls, five of which were placed with white marble statues with slight red lines, and the depression in the southwest had nothing.
The statue looked like a tall warrior wearing steel armor.
Through the arch on the west wall of the hall, they could see a wider hall, where the green light of the fire flickered.
On the ground not far from the west arch, they found a deep pit across the entire room, blocking their way.
"Huh? Look. "Hermione suddenly pointed to a dusty ground," There are paw prints here. "
The paw prints were probably left many years ago, and the prints were very deep. Even if it was covered with dust again, they could still see the previous traces.
"The creature that left these marks should be barefoot. The shape of the feet is similar to that of humans, and the toes have sharp claws." Hermione touched her chin and speculated based on the marks on the ground.
These marks started from the depressions in the wall and eventually disappeared into the deep pit.
The deep pit in front of them was about ten feet high and had sharp spikes at the bottom. The walls of the pit were rough.
But there was a narrow bridge over the pit, just wide enough for one person to pass through.
Allen took the lead and stepped on the bridge. Luna and Hermione followed closely behind.
Just as Allen reached the middle of the bridge, he was pushed off the bridge by a pair of sharp claws that suddenly appeared.
Immediately, Allen heard a burst of crazy laughter from the bridge and the sound of wings flapping.
"Quasit." Luna immediately recognized the culprit who pushed him off the bridge, and Hermione immediately associated it with the information she read in the book.
Quasits looked like a miniature human, but had small horns on their forehead and bat-like wings on their back. Their skin was green and bumpy.
Quasits had slender limbs and sharp claws at the tips of their fingers. It was these claws that pushed Allen off the bridge.
Not only that, but it also activated the Fear spell, making Hermione and Luna, who were about to cast a spell, palpitate and cower under the effect of the spell.
Luna's heart was filled with waves of fear, like waves constantly hitting a rock.
Hermione's face was pale as she looked at the monster that suddenly appeared, motionless.
But soon, Hermione was the first to wake up from the fear. She activated the Brain Seal spell and successfully resisted the Fear spell.
Her progress in learning the Brain Seal spell was faster than Luna's. After a while, Luna also got rid of the attack of the Fear spell.
Hermione attacked the Quasit with a petrification spell. The Quasit was small and extremely agile, successfully dodging Hermione's attack.
