A certain Hogwarts magical cat

Chapter 135 Choice! (three more)

"Great, it looks like we don't have to fight trolls anymore!"

Ron held his nose and carefully walked around a pile of giant monster's feces, with a look of gratitude.

"I'd rather fight the troll, this smell is going to kill me!"

Harry straddled the troll's calf, whining under his breath.

And Alice and Hermione held their breath, without saying anything, and rushed to the door of the fourth room at their fastest speed. They didn't want to inhale the stench in this room.
It was precisely because of this that when they entered the room, their little faces were already flushed.

"Wow!"

After Harry and Ron crossed the threshold, a flame rose suddenly, sealing the door of the room,

The rising flame is not an ordinary flame, but a purple magic flame with extremely high temperature.

At the same time, the door leading to the front exit also raised a wall of fire, which was also a magical flame, but it was black.

Now, the four of them and one cat were completely trapped in the fourth room by the two walls of fire.

……

"Look there!"

Alice pointed to the center of the room, where there was a long table with a roll of parchment and seven bottles of various shapes.

Charlie looked at the roll of parchment speechlessly, and complained in his heart:
"This intention seems a little too obvious!"

If the previous levels can be said to be passable, then this level is really too much.

The first level is the devil's net. If the intruder does not know the weakness of the devil's net, he will be strangled to death. This is no problem. Maybe the Death Eater who broke in was also a master who did not study hard when he was in school. It is also possible that he does not know the devil's net.
In the second level, you can use the broomstick to grab the key to open the door. After all, it is troublesome to undo and cast spells on the door every time you enter and exit.

In the third round of Wizard Chess, only the Death Eaters who are stronger than Professor McGonagall in Wizard Chess can pass. This can indeed wipe out some Death Eaters.
The fourth level is the giant monster, which is the real hard power. If you can't beat the giant monster, you will be killed by the giant monster, which is very reasonable.

As for the fifth level now, it's a bit outrageous.
It’s okay for you to block the road with flame magic, and it’s okay to get seven bottles of potions. After all, you need potions to pass through the flame wall.
But you still leave a riddle, and after solving it, you can know which bottle can move forward and which bottle can go backward, then it is too unreasonable!

If Dumbledore sent his own people to fetch the Sorcerer's Stone, then he must have known from Dumbledore which potion can go in and which potion can come out.

And if it's a Death Eater, then it's fine to just trap him here,
He also gave a reminder, do you want him to have the opportunity to go in to get the Philosopher's Stone, and then leave calmly?

"What does it mean?"

Harry stepped forward to pick up the parchment, opened it and looked at the riddle inside, obviously he didn't have any clue.

"Killer, poison, nettle wine, what does that have to do with how to get through the flames?"

Standing next to Harry, Ron looked at a large list of contents on the parchment, thought for a while, but had no clue.

"let me see!"

Hermione snatched the parchment from Harry's hand, and looked at it carefully.

After a while, the corner of Hermione's mouth twitched, and then she showed a big smile:

"That's wonderful! It's not magic, it's logic, and it's a fun riddle!"

"Riddle? Can we get out of this room if we solve it?"

Harry's eyes lit up.

Hermione nodded:

"Yes, the riddle above is trying to tell us that of the seven bottles on the table, three are poison, two are wine, and one will take us safely through the black flame, and the last one will send us back through the purple flame."

"Then did you say which bottle can let us pass through this black flame?"

Ron interjected.

"Give me 1 minutes!"

Hermione read the paper several times, then checked the seven bottles with Alice, and then pointed to the smallest bottle and said:

"The potion in this bottle can help us pass through the black flame and enter the place where the Sorcerer's Stone was placed at the end."

Harry picked up the smallest bottle, opened it, and frowned immediately:
"But there is less than one sip of the potion left in this bottle, which is enough for one person at most!"

Hearing Harry's words, Alice, Hermione, and Ron were taken aback for a moment. They didn't expect that everyone would come here with such difficulty, and there would be such a moth.

Only one person can pass through the black flame, so who will go?
Originally, they considered that with the cooperation of four people, four wands, and Charlie, a very powerful phantom cat, Snape still had some chances of winning if he was tough head-on.

But if there was only one, it would definitely not be Snape's opponent.

Unless Charlie, who is the most combative, is allowed to pass by, there may still be a slight possibility,
But in the eyes of Harry, Hermione and Ron, although Charlie is powerful, it is only because of his physical strength, and Snape is a professor at Hogwarts.
Without the magical assistance of the four of them, as long as Snape cast a spell on Charlie, Charlie might be doomed,

And although Charlie was smart, he was just a cat after all. It would be very unreliable for him to go inside alone to snatch the Philosopher's Stone from the big devil, Snape.

In fact, only Alice knows that Charlie is not only physically strong, but also proficient in various spells, and his wisdom is no worse than that of humans. If he really goes in, it is really possible to snatch the Philosopher's Stone back from Snape's hands.

But she didn't open her mouth to say it.

As long as you are human, you will inevitably have some selfishness. Although the three of Harry are her best friends now, Charlie is her family.

Alice felt it was too dangerous to let Charlie go in alone to fight Snape, or even the mysterious man.

After all, in Alice's heart, Charlie is more important than Harry, Hermione, and Ron combined. She doesn't want Charlie to take such a risk,

So after Harry finished speaking, she remained silent for a while.

"Hermione, which bottle contains the potion that can return through the purple flame?"

Harry just paused, then asked Hermione directly.

Hermione pointed to the big round bottle on the far right:
"Just take a sip of the potion in that bottle, and you will be able to walk through the purple flames and return to the troll's room!"

"Okay, listen to me now, I will drink the potion in this bottle and go to the next room, and you will drink the potion in that bottle and go back!"

After Harry finished speaking, he saw how many people wanted to object, and immediately said:

"Don't interrupt, listen to me, I will find a way to restrain Snape after I go in, and after you go out, quickly find a way to find other professors in the school to help!"

"But what if the mysterious man is with Snape?"

The smart Hermione actually knew that it was so late now, when they went out to the staff lounge to find the school professors, and then persuaded the professors to believe their words and went back to the fourth floor, it might be too late.

"It's okay, I got away with it once before, remember? Maybe this time, too!"

Harry pointed to the scar on his forehead, and smiled big at the three of Hermione.
