As soon as Link said this, the entire principal's office was silent, and only the portraits on the walls made a nervous sound of breathing.

After a long time, Snape on the sofa frowned and said:

"Why didn't you say it last night?"

"Because I was afraid that you would kill my Arkham at the time."

Link replied.

This answer is half true and half false. Link is indeed a little afraid that Dumbledore will directly kill after catching Arkham for Hogwarts' stability.

After all, judging from the performance in the original work, Dumbledore is completely the kind of "saint" who will do anything for world peace.

In the eyes of such people, Hogwarts and even the world's stability is the first priority, and other things such as personal emotions are not worth mentioning at all.

But what really made Link choose to temporarily hide the information in the secret room was his inertial thinking as a time traveler.

As a time traveler, he has a habit of hiding key information in his bones to protect himself, especially when facing Dumbledore, an existence that can easily destroy everything.

However, after thinking about the Response Room last night, Link quickly understood one thing.

That is, his situation is different from that of ordinary time travelers.

Dumbledore had long known Du Ming about the existence of the basilisk. He and Dumbledore were actually in the same group in strict terms.

Since that's the case, he can completely use Dumbledore's ability to fight against the heir hidden in the dark.

This is also why Link arrived early in the morning.

In the principal's office, Snape was silent after hearing the reasons that Link said.

He also knew what kind of person Dumbledore was.

He and Link looked at each other, and then they all turned their eyes to Dumbledore behind the eagle-footed table.

"Ahem~" Dumbledore coughed inexplicably and said, "Link, since you know where the secret room is, then say it out. I will arrange for someone to go in and look for it."

"The entrance to the secret room is in the bathroom on the second floor, but I have to go there together because opening the secret room requires a snake accent."

Link said quickly.

"Is this so? Although it is more dangerous, it can only let you go with Professor Snape." Dumbledore said after pondering for a while, "You can set off immediately without further ado."

"Now? And there are only two of us?" Link frowned, "Aren't you coming with us?"

"Yes, we have not yet grasped the identity of the heir yet, so he is hiding by our side. If your team grows larger or I appear as a key figure, he will likely have the information in advance, so this operation can only be done by the two of you." Dumbledore said with a smile, "Link, don't worry, Professor Snape is also an excellent master of black magic defense, and he is fully capable of protecting you. Not only that, I will also let Fox follow you."

In his words, Dumbledore deliberately emphasized the tone of the words "Master of Dark Magic Defense" and even glanced at Snape.

This made Snape curl his lips unhappy.

It’s a pity that Link didn’t care about the little interaction between them, he frowned and said:

"Fox?"

"That's it."

Dumbledore smiled and stretched out his hand, and in the direction he pointed, Link saw the beautiful fiery red phoenix sing towards the sky, then rose into the air and landed on Link's shoulder.

"Yeah!~"

"Oh! Oh! He looks like you very much!"

Dumbledore shouted excitedly, which made Link feel a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Snape, who was standing by, seemed unable to bear Dumbledore's nagging, and shouted directly:

"Don't waste time! Dumbledore!"

"Okay, okay." Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Then I wish you all the best."

A hint of surprise flashed across Link's face, and he opened his hand and said:

"Wait, will you leave now? I haven't eaten yet..."

Before he could finish his words, Snape stepped forward and grabbed his arm directly.

At the same time, a dazzling red light burst out from the Phoenix Fox on Link's shoulder.

"Boom!"

The familiar dizziness of the space teleportation made Link unable to help but close his eyes, but when he opened his eyes again, he suddenly realized that he and Snape had appeared in the bathroom.

"The Phoenix itself has the ability to teleport people, and this ability can ignore the anti-phantom appearance curse. But Dumbledore is right. This Phoenix seems to really like you. Ordinary people will not teleport casually."

Snape looked at Phoenix Fox, who was still combing his hair on Link's shoulder, and explained in a complicated expression.

However, this expression only appeared on his face for a moment, and soon he returned to normal, pulled Link and said:

"Okay, we don't have much time, so open the door to the secret room soon."

Upon hearing this, Link did not refuse, but just glanced at Phoenix Fox on his shoulder and came to the bathroom.

"Shit...(Open)"

A creepy snake speech was read out.

Listening to the strange snake speech, a hint of disgust flashed across Snape's face.

But he hid it very well and did not let Link discover it.

Soon, the toilet table began to deform and eventually disappeared, leaving only a very thick water pipe.

Link pointed to the bottomless water pipe and said:

"The secret room is below, but I don't know the specific location. In addition, the pipeline below is very complicated, so we still need to explore."

Snape frowned, but instead of complaining, he said:

"Then let's go."

After saying that, Snape jumped into the pipeline very simply.

Link followed quickly.

"Yeah ~"

Phoenix Fox sang and raised his wings, dragging Link to prevent him from sliding down quickly.

Snape, who was ahead of Link, also used some unknown spell to float in the air.

In order to prevent the sudden danger, Link started the brain closure technique and the super-sensory curse early.

But this made his journey painful.

Because this pipe is actually the underground drainage pipe of Hogwarts, which is not only humid and dark, but also full of all kinds of undescribable odors.

This odor becomes even more terrifying after the sensory amplification of the super-sensory mantra.

As a last resort, Link could only reach out and pinch his nose to slightly block the terrifying smell.

As the two continued to go down, the slope of the pipeline became steeper and steeper, and the most serious place even reached a terrifying 90% angle, which was almost no different from the cliff.

In addition, they found many other forks.

These forks broke in all directions, some were so narrow that they could not pass at all, while others were almost as thick as the tube they were in now.

Snape, who was flying in front of him, seemed not concerned about it, and he continued to fly forward along the main pipe.

After flying for nearly twenty minutes, the pipe suddenly became horizontal, and then a glimmering exit appeared in front of him.
