Chapter 304 Sacrifice
Harry knelt down in front of Ron, calling out.Ron seemed to be having an epileptic seizure, convulsing his whole body and foaming at the mouth.
No, if this continues, sooner or later he will bite his tongue and stuff something hard into Ron's mouth... Harry still knows this bit of first aid knowledge!
Instinctively, he reached out, intending to stuff it into Ron's mouth, but assessed the force of his teeth's bite, and picked up his wand wisely.
Harry had another mental exercise... After all, this is his own wand, which is very useful, and it is Fox's tail feather... I am reluctant!
So Harry took Ron's wand and stuffed it into his mouth.
Twelve and a quarter inches...of eurbanite...hard...just average.
Anyway, in Ron's mouth, the hardness was quite average, and with just a click, the product made by Cedric's small workshop left a row of terrible cracks.
After the slender basilisk emerged from Ron's chest, it swam out.
It is no more than one meter long, covered in green, with a bright red feather on its head, like a rooster's red crown.
I don't know, I thought it was a chicken-snake hybrid.
Taking advantage of the time when Harry was focusing on Ron, it secretly took Harry's wand on the ground, held it in its mouth, and then suddenly swam across the ground.
It crawled along Riddle's thighs to his shoulders, raised its little head, and wagged its tail at the boy as if taking credit.
Riddle took Harry's wand, he played with it lightly, and said with a smile: "Potter, you see, this is how I control Ron.
A very useful magic that, by placing a snake inside a wizard, can use Parseltongue to control them from afar. "
"That's why, those who were attacked all identified you."
Harry looked up, staring at Riddle intently.
"Don't look at me like that." Riddle said with a playful smile, "You think I attacked so many wizards just to frame you?
In addition to Ron, I also put five juvenile basilisks in the bodies of other victims. "
"Harry." Riddle whispered softly, enjoying every second of the other party's panic.
"Believe me, not only Ron's life or death is your immediate concern, but also your classmates...five lives.
And me, one thought can destroy them... unless you help me. "
Harry was tense, almost out of control.
"Please," he raised his eyelids and said inarticulately, "I promise whatever you ask..."
"Very good." Riddle's face showed ecstasy.
He put the diary on the table and gently spread it out. Each page was covered with intricate patterns of ancient magic words and spells.
Riddle pinched the juvenile basilisk, quietly placed it on the diary, and began to prepare for the resurrection ceremony.
On the way of chasing immortality, Voldemort has gone farther than anyone else.
When he made his first Horcrux, he was only 16 years old, but he had already found several resurrection magics.
But unlike the main body, the Riddle living in the diary is just a piece of soul.
Since it was the first split, his soul fragments were indeed relatively large, but they still couldn't be compared with the main body.
Only by constantly communicating with Ron, luring Ron to share his soul and absorbing vitality, can he appear from the diary.
This is just the first step!
In order to transform himself from a soul state into an independent form, Riddle absorbed the souls and vitality of six people at the same time.
The six people who were attacked were all breeding grounds for his growth.
This is also the reason why Dumbledore has been afraid to act rashly, he has to wait for Riddle to take the basilisk back on his own initiative.
Otherwise, these people will all die!
Now is the time to reclaim those energies.
Riddle swung his wand, pointed it at the basilisk, and said a spell in his mouth.
Almost instantly, the basilisk shriveled up, and invisible vitality flowed into the diary.
At the same time, the five basilisks living in other people's bodies also shriveled up quickly.
All the soul power they absorbed flowed into the diary.
Riddle's body emitted a rich green light, and his shoulders, neck, face, and head were also covered with intricate patterns of ancient runes and spells.
Exactly the same as in the diary.
On Riddle's head, there are six strange Ouroboros patterns.
"Shards of innocent souls make me whole!" Riddle muttered.
In his current state, his soul has been transformed into a form.
"Come on, Harry, make magic with me, as you said, it's completely voluntary!" Riddle said softly.
Harry stood up blankly, letting Riddle play with him.
Riddle paced around the room, waving his wand, and softly chanted the ancient rune to himself.
Thick white smoke, accompanied by his singing, rose in circles.
The life force absorbed by the basilisk was not enough to revive the 16-year-old Riddle.
He wants to be resurrected,
A powerful sacrifice is needed!
The more people who hated him, the closer the connection, the more powerful the sacrifice.
So Harry is very important, and Riddle chose him to complete the final sacrifice.
After completing the magic preparations, Riddle asked loudly:
"Harry Potter, is Tom Riddle your enemy?"
"Yes!"
The white smoke wrapped around Harry and Riddle.
"Are you willing to break the cage of your soul for your enemies?" Riddle asked again.
"willing!"
The white smoke completely entangled the two of them together, and then merged into their bodies.
"I granted your request," Harry said loudly, "let Ron go, let those innocents go."
Riddle opened his eyes and smiled.
"The business between you and me is not over yet, there is still one last step left, Potter."
"You may have noticed that my state is different from ordinary people.
I am attached to the diary, and to be fully resurrected, a sacrifice needs to be made to release the soul from the diary. "
"You arrested me as a sacrifice?" Harry's voice trembled. "Is this the mission you said?"
Riddle laughed dumbfounded, "You really don't understand, do you?"
At this moment, the sound of music floated from nowhere.
Riddle turned away sharply, and the music grew louder.This voice is illusory, ethereal and mysterious, and it is exciting to listen to.
A second later, a large bird flew straight at Harry.It dropped the tattered thing in its paws at Harry's feet, then perched heavily on Harry's shoulder.
When it folded its two huge wings, Harry looked up and saw that it had a long, sharp golden beak and two shining black eyes.
The big bird stopped singing.It sat quietly on Harry's shoulder, pressing warmly against Harry's cheek, and fixed its gaze on Riddle.
"Phoenix." Riddle laughed. "I just drained the power of the basilisk, and Dumbledore came and interrupted our sacrifice. Unfortunately... he came late."
"That thing——" Riddle turned his gaze to the tattered thing that Fox dropped just now, "is that broken sorting hat from the school?"
Harry grabbed the hat, which he slammed onto his head carelessly.
"Help me - save me -" thought Harry, eyes pressed tightly under the hat, "please help me."
But the Sorting Hat didn't answer him.
On the contrary, the hat is getting tighter and tighter, as if an invisible hand is clenching it desperately.
Clang!Something hard and heavy fell on top of Harry's head, nearly knocking him unconscious.
He grabbed the top of the hat and tried to take it off, but felt a long, hard thing under it.
A gleaming silver sword appeared in the hat, and the hilt was studded with a dazzling ruby the size of an egg.
"Aha, the sword of Gryffindor." Riddle narrowed his eyes.
"I said why I couldn't find it after searching for so long. It turned out to be hidden by Dumbledore."
Fawkes suddenly spread its wings and took flight. It flapped its wings quickly and circled above the two of them. Then, something fell on Harry's lap—the diary.
Without thinking or hesitating, Harry grabbed the Gryffindor sword and raised it high, ready to pierce the diary!
Riddle watched quietly, with a smile on his lips.
I had waited too long for this night, and the great new life was finally about to happen.
