Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures-Chapter 1221: Entering the Abyss
Even in the modern world, the strong were always respected in the Wizarding community. After experiencing it firsthand, the wizards became increasingly aware of how powerful Evan truly was.
At this moment, the clarity with which they understood the nature of power, the deep yearning they felt for life, was matched only by the profound respect they had for Evan.
The issue of being too young had been automatically ignored by everyone!
In the eyes of the thousands of wizards watching, Evan was now the most powerful wizard in the world, a wizard who could fight gods and demons.
It was conceivable that when the news of this battle spread, wizards all over the world would know of Evan and how powerful he was.
This was a world-class battle, fraught with extreme danger, and one that wizards would speak of with awe for ages to come.
The longer some legends are brewing, the more classic they become!
Some legends only become more iconic with time, and this battle was one such legend — worthy of being recorded in history.
But who could have thought that Evan, who was fighting a life-and-death battle in the eyes of everyone, was actually very relaxed now? He just needed to create some light to cooperate with the demon. However, what dissatisfied him was that this scorpion had just mercilessly killed more than two hundred people.
Had he not intervened in time, Rawya, who rushed to help, might have been killed too.
When Evan asked, the scorpion replied that it was hungry and needed blood…
Demons were really dangerous. This fight was just for show; it shouldn’t be dragged out too long.
Otherwise, it was unknown what might happen.
Evan could now command it, but obviously such an order was not binding.
If the scorpion decided to act out, there wouldn’t be much Evan could do about it.
Evan looked around. The rubble and dust had completely shrouded the two of them, and he could not see clearly what was happening outside.
“That’s enough!” he said. “Move them out.”
“As you wish, honorable guest!” the demon replied in a cold voice.
The people who had been watching saw that the giant scorpion, unable to kill Evan, suddenly went berserk.
It stopped and let out a strange, ear-piercing sound, and the pressure that accompanied it was almost tangible.
A dazzling light came on and the space began to shake violently.
As the shaking continued, everyone felt their heads becoming heavier and heavier, their vision went dark, and they fainted and fell to the ground.
Then, their bodies glowed white and vanished from the Ruins of Amun Ra.
Inside the room, only Evan and the giant scorpion remained, staring at each other.
“Where did you send them?”
“Out in the desert,” the scorpion replied in a cold voice, shaking its giant claws, “honorable guest.”
“Alright, time to get down to business!” Evan breathed a sigh of relief and put his wand back. “What’s the situation with the prisoners?”
“I can sense that they are very weak now, but the magic left by the master has also developed significant flaws, and there is not much power left,” the scorpion said. “Especially after summoning me, the remaining magic power has been exhausted. Honorable guest, you should hurry to complete the master’s orders; you don’t have much time left.”
“I know,” Evan took a deep breath. “I want to end this quickly too. Summon the door to the prison.”
“As you wish!” The scorpion slowly retreated, and the ground shook again.
The magic altar rose high up, revealing a golden stone door with spells carved on the door frame.
In the center of the gate was a circular groove.
As long as Evan placed the Eye of Horus into the slot, the folding door would open, allowing him to enter the prison of the gods.
From the messages received from Ramses II, he understood that the challenge awaiting him beyond the door would not be one of magic but a test of physical endurance. The remaining gods imprisoned there possessed formidable powers of mental corruption. Even with the help of Occlumency, the longer he stayed inside, the weaker his resistance would become.
Therefore, he had to be fast enough and have enough physical strength to support him to run to the weapon left by Ramses II.
Evan placed the Eye of Horus into the groove. With creaking sounds, the stone door slowly opened, revealing the stone stairs behind it. He observed carefully. In the dim light, he couldn’t see clearly and didn’t know what was underneath. There was only a smell of decay.
The air below seemed to have not flowed for a long time. He waited and tried to let as much fresh air as possible flow in.
Taking advantage of this time, Evan stretched his body and took out a bottle of Invigoration Draught and drank it.
The scorching liquid slid down his throat, coursing through his bloodstream, filling his entire body with boundless energy.
This was not a sports competition, and taking this potion wasn’t against the rules.
The physical strength that Evan had just consumed gradually recovered. He felt a wave of comfort, almost craving more.
To be extra cautious, he took out another vial and drank it in one swift gulp.
Two bottles of Invigoration Draught were enough to give him endless strength, but soon, as the effect of the potion took effect, more and more energy poured in, exceeding the limit that the human body could withstand. He now needed to vent and get rid of all the energy through movement.
He couldn’t delay any longer. If he didn’t act quickly, the overwhelming energy trapped within him would drive him mad.
With the overwhelming energy coursing through him, he felt a wave of heat spread throughout his body.
“Honorable guest, are you ready?” the scorpion said in a cold voice. “I can sense the breath of the prisoners. They are ready to move. If you fail in a moment, I will destroy this prison in my own way.”
“Yeah,” Evan nodded, his face flushed with an unusual redness. He was ready.
However, before entering, he suddenly thought of a question.
“By the way, if I destroy this place, what will happen to you?”
“I will go find my master, honorable guest,” the scorpion replied slowly. “I have been waiting for this day for too long!”
“Find your master, is Ramses II still alive?”
“He is on a great journey. When my mission here is complete, I will return to my master’s side.”

Evan didn’t quite understand the meaning of this answer. What was this Great Journey?
But the scorpion didn’t seem to want to explain too much. Its terrifying eyes stared at Evan silently.
Evan took a deep breath, his head was in a mess, and he felt that he was almost reaching his limit.
Without further delay, he stepped into the prison.
Evan was moving very fast. The stairs went down and down, and it seemed like there would never be an end.
‘Did Ramses II intend to build his prison in the core of the Earth?’
The slope of the glowing staircase was steep and hollow on both sides. Evan had a feeling that he was entering an abyss.
Many buildings he had visited before had similar designs, but none could compare to the one before him.
Fortunately, it was so dark around him, otherwise his fear of heights would definitely make him dizzy and he would fall from the top.
Just as this thought crossed his mind, a faintly glowing green orb began to drift toward him from the distance…
