"What should we do now?" Ron asked hesitantly.
After seeing those nightmarish statues in the room, the unease in Ron's heart grew stronger and stronger.
His reasoning told him that if he continued deeper, there would be big trouble waiting for him.
He wanted to leave, but he couldn't bear to part with the magic items left behind by Gryffindor.
He looked at the ashen faced Sirius, then looked at the arrogant Margaret, and finally looked at Elwyn who was standing beside him thinking about something.
If everyone moved forward together, there shouldn't be any danger.
With Sirius and Elwyn, even if they encountered anything, they wouldn't have to worry.
"Sirius, we …" Harry said worriedly, he was also frightened by the terrifying statues in the room.
"Let's go back." Sirius said, glaring fiercely at Margaret.
"Wait, Sirius." Hermione suddenly interrupted, "Why do we have to go back, no matter what the monsters in this room were, they are only statues now, they can't possibly attack us."
"The last time I came, I didn't see them, the stone doors of these rooms were all closed." Sirius looked at Hermione and explained, "You must know, from the outside, the things inside are obviously evil and dangerous, it has already exceeded our capabilities, I don't wish for you to take the risk."
"We don't have any losses right now." Elwyn followed up, "I don't think this is a risk, but to find out the truth of the matter."
"That is the centaur's own matter, it has nothing to do with us." Sirius frowned.
"It's not just about the centaurs, Firenze just told us, the moon that represents the centaur's belief in the evil god and Mars that represents the sorcerer's war are intertwined, this is already a matter." Elwyn looked at Sirius and said, "You know very well what I'm talking about. We all know that the Lord Voldemort created the Soul Vessel. He's not dead. Sooner or later, he'll return. If he summons that Evil God again …"
"That has nothing to do with us. Dumbledore will take care of it," Sirius replied stiffly. "I just want to keep you guys safe."
The atmosphere suddenly became silent. Elwyn did not know what to say.
"I know."
Harry hesitated for a moment before going over and hugging Sirius tightly. He said softly, "Sirius, you are the best godfather and professor for Defense Against Dark Magic. But I think what Elwyn said is right. We should continue to move forward and pass the final test, obtain the item left behind by Gryffindor, and unlock all the secrets. "
Sirius did not answer. He looked at Harry in silence.
"If my father was here, he would definitely not back down."
Harry looked back at him and said firmly. "The reason why Gryffindor left behind that item is probably the same. He hopes that we can help the centaurs, and test if we have courage and other qualities. You guys came here before, and tried to challenge the magic he left behind. Now we … "
Hearing Harry's words, Elwyn fell into deep thought.
He suddenly thought, maybe everything was as Harry said. The current troubles they encountered were all challenges left behind by the four creators, and not a coincidence. uu2;
A thousand years ago, he told the four heads about the current situation of Hogwarts, Lord Voldemort and the Soul Vessel. Under Royna and Ravenclaw's suggestion, they prepared to leave behind a secret treasure to help their descendants protect Hogwarts from the invasion of the Dark Wizards.
But this was only one of the reasons. It was not the only reason they did it.
Everyone knew that ever since the establishment of Hogwarts, the four founders had been arguing about their own teaching philosophy and student recruitment standards. None of them could convince the other.
In the end, they came to a compromise and merged a part of their thoughts into the School Sorting Hat. They hoped that it could pass on their respective philosophies, no matter how much time passed.
And the main reason for leaving behind the secret treasure and setting up the test was to test whether the students of the later generations could meet their requirements and inherit the qualities they fancied.
Maybe it was because of this. All these troubles were left behind by the four creators.
But, with the strength of the four heads, their foresight and the average standard of the magic world a thousand years ago, it might not be too difficult of a test. But now, it was beyond the capabilities of the current young wizards.
Elwyn laughed bitterly. He had previously thought that the tests left behind by the four heads were too easy.
From the current situation, Slytherin's treasure key was related to the despicable Herbo and the evil dark creatures he created using countless human souls. Gryffindor's treasure key was related to the centaurs and the evil god they worshiped.
From this, it could be deduced that the tests left behind by Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff would not be simple.
But it was not completely unsolvable. The four heads should have left some tricks up their sleeves. Just like the powerful magic that Slytherin had set up in the underground ruins. As long as the method was right, it could be activated at the crucial moment to help the later generations overcome difficulties and even increase their magic power. uu3;
The condition that Slytherin had set up was that the person who entered the ruins must carry one of the four items he left behind. A ring, a locket, a wand and a scepter.
Only by fulfilling these conditions could the magic he left behind be activated.
From Slytherin's understanding, a young wizard who could possess the items he left behind, even if he was not his successor, he would definitely be a pure-blooded wizard.
Paying attention to bloodline and background, this was really in line with Slytherin's style.
Then what kind of magic did Gryffindor leave behind in this temple? Perhaps as long as one possessed unparalleled courage, they could break through all difficulties.
"Let's continue forward, those are the magic items and tests left behind by Gryffindor himself, the four of you have the qualifications to go and try."
After a long silence, Sirius slowly said, "You are right, Harry, I previously only considered your safety, but neglected your feelings. If Jaime was here, he would definitely not back down."
After he finished, he also stepped forward and tightly hugged Harry, his face filled with gratification.
The team continued forward, everyone circled around the spacious passageway upwards.
The unexpected interlude caused the atmosphere to become tense, everyone raised their vigilance. No one spoke, only the sound of footsteps echoed in the ancient temple.
"Sirius, before we entered, you warned us to be careful, part of the centaur's customs are very evil and dangerous." Hermione could not help but ask, "But you just said that you have never seen those statues before, then what danger are you referring to?"
