v2 Chapter 1815: god of nightmares

Above the cloister, the building protrudes toward the lake, where is the second floor of the building, located between the lake and the giant tree.

There is a staircase leading to the second floor on the right side of the corridor. From below, you can see that at the end of the staircase is a stone door, blocking the room on the second floor. On it was written a line in crooked text: Only free elves are allowed to enter their homes. These words are all written in English, with silver light shining on the stone gate.

"This is the door!" said Sirius, pointing his wand at the stone door above the stairs. "I tried several spells and couldn't open it. It had house-elf magic on it."

"What does that mean?" Harry asked suspiciously, occasionally turning his head to look at the lake outside the cloister, where the magic felt too obvious.

"Probably literally," said Hermione, frowning. "Remember what the house-elf demon said? Ancient house-elves resented losing to wizards and becoming an affiliated race. If the door was their home, Then they only allow free house-elves in. That is, only house-elves who don't have an owner are recognized."

"A elf without a master..."

"Hermione thought the same as I did, and Dobby just met the conditions. As far as I know, he may be the only free house-elf in the wizarding world. If the house-elves left on this door to verify Magic, so much more than in the past, the magic above will definitely work." Sirius said.

"Dobby is willing to help, sir, but Dobby doesn't know what to do."

"You stand in front of the door and try it first," Sirius continued. "Or just touch the stone door with your finger, just like when you were outside, and it might open."

"Dobby doesn't feel that way!" said Dobby, shaking his head. "Only the house-elves above are talking to Dobby. Dobby can hear a little more clearly. They are expressing kindness. There is something that makes Dobby feel Very comfortable strength." Although still holding onto Hermione tightly, his ears weren't as tight as they were just now, and he began to look around cautiously.

"Good intentions? That's good news."

"Did you notice?" Hermione found something, she pointed to the stone door above and said, "The text on the door is in English, not ancient Rune, which means that these words were left by later house-elves. Later, another house-elf came here to seal the stone gate, and that elf may have lived with the wizards for a while, so he used English."

"It is indeed possible."

"Could it be Hufflepuff's house-elves that left this line of text?"

"When you open the stone gate, everything is clear, and there is no point in continuing to speculate." Sirius said impatiently, "Dobby, you go and try it, you are a free house elf, if there is really a left on this door. The magic of verification, your past tense will definitely work.

Under the gaze of the three, Dobby slowly climbed the stairs and came to the stone gate, trembling.

Nothing happens!

He touched the stone gate with his hand, but there was still no response. Dobby turned his head to look at the three uncertainly, his big eyes filled with overwhelm and panic.

"Only free house-elves can pass, you have to prove that you are a free elf, Dobby, you can try shouting 'I am a free elf', maybe it will work." Hermione suggested road.

"Okay, Miss Granger, Dobby is a free house elf." Dobby took a deep breath and said loudly, "Dobby is a free elf."

As soon as his voice fell, Shimen shuddered and fell backward, making a violent noise.

With Dobby's screams, Harry, Hermione, and Sirius quickly ran up the stairs.

Behind the stone door is a small room. The most striking thing is a vertical pipe in the middle. One end of it is connected to the platform in the center of the room, and the other end leads straight up to the inside of the giant tree. A heavy magic book was placed on the raised platform in front of the platform.

"This is the house-elf home?"

"What happened to that pipe?"

"There may be some information in this book!" Hermione said, stepping forward to carefully identify the words on the book, "It's an ancient rune, and the title of the book is 'The Tree of Death: Eternal Dreams'."

She tried to turn the pages, and this time, the book didn't rot and dissipate.

"This is an alchemy book!" Hermione flipped through the pages, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, Harry, Sirius, and Dobby come to the platform's pipes.

"This pipe seems to be used to send something up, or to send something down." Sirius said uncertainly, he leaned out and looked inside, "It's empty, and there are a lot of spell runes drawn..."

"Could the tree above be the home of the house-elves," Harry said, pulling on Sirius' robe nervously, lest something happen to him, "the house-elves we saw wrapped in chrysalis The elves, are they sent through here?"

"It's possible!"

"This place is really weird, who is it, what's the point of hanging house-elves on trees?!"

"I seem to understand what's going on." Hermione said suddenly, she was still flipping through the magic book in front of her, "The giant tree above is indeed the home of the house-elves. It's an ancient magician left behind. alchemical item, which Hufflepuff once modified."

"What are you talking about, Hermione, what's in the book?"

"This book systematically introduces this alchemy, that is, the giant tree and the lake below, they are all constructed with ancient alchemy." Hermione said excitedly, "The lake is the source of magic, The purpose of this tree is to create a new world!"

"Create a new world?"

"Yes, an eternal dream world... not only that!" Hermione said, her tone also full of unprecedented surprise, "This is an unimaginable magic, and it also involves the method of becoming a evil god."

"Cthulhu?!" Harry and Sirius both looked at her in shock. They couldn't believe how they had something to do with the evil god.

"It's not the God of Devouring and the God of Death that I've seen before, this is a new evil god, and the accurate word should be the God of Nightmare." Hermione turned the book to a certain page, pointed to the text on it and said, "You guys Look here, an ancient warlock created this giant tree, which is a different space connected to the dream, he has eternal life in it, and he can gain power by devouring other people's dreams and creating nightmares. He is the master of dreams !"

This is incredible!
