Elwyn followed Dumbledore's instructions and tried to sense the traces left behind by magic.
But he felt nothing. He blinked his eyes.
Looking at the expressions of Sirius, Harry, and Hermione, they probably had no idea what Dumbledore was talking about, either.
It was obvious that there was a huge gap between their abilities and Dumbledore's.
"You don't mind getting wet, do you?"
"It's okay, we don't mind!" Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione quickly shook their heads.
"Good. The tide is rising, and the water will get deeper and deeper. We have to hurry. Let's take the risk." Dumbledore turned his head and continued to instruct, "I'll go first. You three follow behind me, and Sirius brings up the rear. As for Kreacher, you wait for us in the cave. "
After some preparation, they started to move.
Dumbledore suddenly became as agile as a young man. He slid gently from the pebble into the water and swam toward the dark crack below.
He held the wand in his mouth and swam in the perfect breaststroke position.
Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione hurried to follow him, with Sirius behind them.
The winter water was bone-chilling, and everyone felt terrible.
Elwyn, in particular, had too many magic books in his arms. After his clothes were soaked in the water, they became bulky and heavy, dragging him down.
He took a few deep breaths and smelled the pungent smell of salt and seaweed.
Then, he sank to the bottom of the water and struggled to find Dumbledore in front of him, as well as the narrow crack in the depths of the cliff.
But he saw nothing, not even Harry and Hermione, who should have been next to him. There seemed to be a strong suction in the depths of the sea, like a bottomless black whirlpool, dragging him deeper.
In the dark, cold water, Elwyn was lonely and helpless. He couldn't even breathe.
Just when he was about to give up, someone grabbed him.
It was Sirius. He was very strong, and he pulled Elwyn in another direction.
Soon, they entered the crack in the depths of the cliff, which turned into a dark passage. They quickly swam up in the passage, and Elwyn could breathe again. The water did not fill the entire passage, only up to his chest.
The tide was rising, and if they delayed any longer, the passage would definitely be filled.
"Are you okay, Elwyn?" Sirius patted Ivan's shoulder and said worriedly, "Don't push yourself too hard. I saw you falling behind from behind."
"I-I'm fine!"
Elwyn panted. Harry and Hermione hurried over. Because it was too cold, the three of them were pale and shivering in the chest-high water.
Not far ahead, the tip of Dumbledore's wand was glowing with a bright golden light. He was looking around. The muddy walls on both sides of the passage were only three feet apart, glistening like wet asphalt. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net w

Dumbledore did not say anything. He just waved his hand and motioned for them to follow.
A little further in, a fork appeared. Kreacher wasn't here. They didn't know which way to go, but Dumbledore turned left without hesitation.
They continued to follow Dumbledore. The temperature in the cave was much lower than outside. Because there was no sunlight, the already bone-chilling seawater was even colder. Their numb fingers brushed against the rough, wet rocks as they staggered forward in the seawater.
At the end of the passage, Dumbledore had already stood up in the water. His silver hair and black robe were shimmering with water.
They swam there and found that there were steps leading to a large cave.
Elwyn climbed the steps with difficulty. Water flowed freely through his soaked clothes.
He finally walked out of the seawater. The air around him was silent and cold. He couldn't help but shiver.
He saw that Kreacher was already standing in the middle of the cave, talking to Dumbledore beside him.
Dumbledore held his wand high in his hand. He spoke in a low voice as he slowly turned in a circle, carefully examining the rock walls and ceiling.
"Without a doubt, this is the place," Dumbledore said briefly. "These walls are enchanted. It's a trace left behind by Riddle."
Elwyn saw that Dumbledore continued to turn slowly in the same place. Obviously, he was focused on studying something that he couldn't see. He was studying the traces left behind by the Lord Voldemort.
"That's right, Kreacher! I know this is only the front hall. It's the entrance hall! " Dumbledore said in a low voice. "We need to go inside. What's stopping us now is a trap set by the Lord Voldemort, not an obstacle set by nature."
Dumbledore walked closer to the cave wall and gently touched it with his fingers.
The wand in his hand swayed slightly. He muttered a strange language that Elwyn had never heard before. It sounded like a spell, but it didn't seem like it at the same time.
Because nothing happened, Dumbledore walked around the cave twice from the left. As he walked, he tried to touch the rough walls as much as possible. Occasionally, he would stop and feel up and down with his fingers.
"Prof?"
Elwyn took a few steps forward. Dumbledore was trying to identify the traces of magic left behind by the Lord Voldemort. He really wanted to know how Dumbledore did it. Before today, he had never seen a wizard solve a difficult problem like this. He only used his eyes to see, his hands to touch, and his mind to feel.
It was completely the work of an expert, unlike the common low-level wizards who used spells to make a lot of noise and smoke.
Elwyn wanted to go over and learn from Dumbledore how to identify the traces of magic left on objects, but he immediately realized that he didn't have the energy to do that.
Because the cold had invaded his bones, he was trembling all over.
Beside him, Sirius, Harry, and Hermione weren't any better. They were trembling uncontrollably from head to toe.
Elwyn saw Sirius pull out his wand. He wanted to use magic to warm them up, but it didn't work. His teeth were chattering because of the cold. His magic was ineffective.
"Oh, sorry, I'm so sorry, I forgot!" Dumbledore noticed them and pointed his wand at the four of them in turn.
Following Dumbledore's action, Elwyn felt his body immediately become dry and warm. There wasn't even a trace of seawater on his clothes. It was as if he had been hung in front of a roaring fire to dry.
"Thank you!" Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione hurriedly said gratefully. They saw that Dumbledore had turned his attention to the solid cave wall again.
He didn't try any other spells. He just stood there and stared at the wall, as if there was something very interesting written on it.
"Where is Regulus?" Sirius suddenly shouted. "Kreacher, tell us how we should go in."
There was a hint of impatience in his tone. They had already wasted too much time, and this dark, strange cave in front of them was even more confusing.
