There was a corridor behind the door, and several people walked along the corridor.
After walking a few steps, Fred suddenly asked, "What treasure do you think Headmaster Dumbledore has hidden here?"
"Are you planning to take that treasure?" Albert stopped and turned to look at Fred who almost bumped into him, with his eyebrows slightly raised.
"Aren't you just curious about what treasure needs so many professors to set up mechanisms to protect it?" Fred didn't care about Albert's tone and said to himself, "The Devil's Snare should be Professor Sprout's mechanism, and the magic on those keys must be the work of Professor Flitwick. There is also Professor McGonagall's giant chessboard formation. The three deans are all involved, so..."
He didn't say the rest, but everyone understood what he meant.
What exactly is the thing that Headmaster Dumbledore is going to so much trouble to protect? If it isn't something extremely valuable, is it really necessary to go to such lengths
This incident really aroused everyone's curiosity.
"I'm curious, too."
"Just think about it, don't expect to get it." Albert reminded, "I think Headmaster Dumbledore will know we are here soon."
The three of them were stunned when they heard this.
"Very strange? After all, he is Headmaster Dumbledore. How could he not be able to monitor the situation here?" Albert pouted and said self-deprecatingly, "Do you think these mechanisms are difficult and can stop thieves who want to steal treasures? No, I prefer to believe that the headmaster intends to use this to catch the thief."
The three of them were silent because what Albert said made sense.
Are the mechanisms set up by the professors difficult
It doesn’t seem that difficult!
It is indeed not difficult, although they may suffer a setback if they are not careful.
Wait, thieves, are you referring to us
They were all very curious about who these mechanisms were prepared for
Albert might know something, but he certainly wouldn't tell them directly, so there was no point in asking.
"All three deans are involved, and Snape is probably no exception. We will most likely face a trap set up by Snape next." George changed the subject and talked about his own guess, which actually made sense.
As they were talking, they came to a door.
They looked at each other and Fred stepped forward to open the door.
The moment the door was opened, a disgusting stench hit their noses, and they almost subconsciously lifted their clothes to cover their noses.
The next moment, the sound of chains being pulled was heard from the door, and a deafening roar came from the room.
Albert almost instinctively reached out and closed the door again.
Oh my god!
That smell is horrible!
He felt like he was about to cry.
"It's a giant monster!"
Fred took several steps back, not because he was afraid of the troll, but to get as far away from the door and the terrible stench as possible and to breathe some fresh air.
"Are you sure this is a mechanism set by Snape?" Li Jordan obviously did not think that the troll in the room was a mechanism set by Snape.
"It should be a mechanism set up by Professor Quirrell. The trolls are mentioned in the Dark Force Self-Defense Guide." Albert and a few others moved away from the door. After they could no longer smell the terrible stench around them, they began to cast the Bubble Head Curse on everyone.
"That's much better now." Lee Jordan couldn't help but complain, "I have no doubt that the giant monster actually wants to suffocate anyone who enters the room."
Albert ignored Li Jordan's complaints and reminded him, "Don't kill the giant monster inside directly. I'll throw a glowing spell inside and you can use a stunning spell on it and try to stun it. Under normal circumstances, we shouldn't have to fight the giant monster directly. There must be some easy way to subdue it."
Several people nodded to show that they understood!
Facing the trolls, they did not feel the same anxiety as before. It was obvious that the trolls were even more dangerous than those chess statues, but they had the experience of killing two trolls before. When facing the trolls, the four of them did not feel much fear or anxiety at all.
"Three, two, one!"
When Fred reopened the door, Albert immediately threw a ball of light inside, and the dim room was completely illuminated.
The four raised their wands and fired stunning spells at the troll inside.
The troll, hit by four stunning spells, began to stagger as if it was drunk. Instead of falling down, the troll stood up again. It shook its head and looked at the four young wizards who broke into the room.
“It didn’t even get knocked down!”
Fred, George and Lee Jordan all had looks of shock on their faces. You have to know that these were four people using the Stunning Spell together. If an ordinary person was targeted like this, he would probably have to be sent to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Ailments and Injuries.
"Barrier spell!" Albert shouted.
The giant monster in front of him was much larger than the two he encountered last time.
“There are so many obstacles!”
Everyone shouted in unison, and spells shot out from the tips of their wands, hitting the troll's body, causing the troll, which was about to rush over, to stop abruptly, as if some huge force had restrained it.
"What should I do?" Fred shouted. "Use a few more Stunning Charms?"
The effect of the barrier spell would not last long, and the troll could break free and move at any time. They had to do something to subdue it completely.
"Destroy its weapons first." George was about to use the explosive spell to destroy the troll's stick, but was stopped by Albert.
"let me."
Albert just waved his wand, and the stick in the troll's hand flew into the air.
When the troll regained its ability to move, it was shocked to find that the weapon in its hand was gone. It looked at its palm and scratched its head in confusion. The wooden stick directed by Albert drew a graceful arc in the air and hit its original owner's back of the head hard.
An earth-shattering noise echoed in the room, and the troll swayed on the spot as if performing an exaggerated dance, staggered a few times, and fell face down on the floor.
With a loud "boom", the whole room shook.
"Just like that... we won?"
Li Jordan widened his eyes in disbelief. He had thought he would have to fight with this giant monster for a while, but he didn't expect to solve it so easily
"I have specialized in studying trolls. The only disgusting thing about these guys is the smell they carry." Albert carefully stepped over the troll's sturdy body and walked towards the door opposite.
"Is the weak spot the back of the head?" Fred asked, patting his head.
"Yes, one of the weak points is the back of the head. Attacking there can make the giant monster faint."
"Let's go. I don't want to stay here any longer." George muttered. He reached out, opened the wooden door, and walked in first.
"Next, it should be Snape's mechanism!"
