Chapter 172: Human face

In the entire dark and depressing space, only the little fluorescent light from Alan's wand can be seen.
Suddenly, Allen stopped, stunned as if being cursed.
He saw a pair of eyes, reflecting light in the darkness, staring at himself.
The unknown is the most terrifying.
Alan doesn't know what temperament the owner of these eyes is, gentle or irritable? Is it harmful to humans? Is the attack power strong?
He stretched his wand forward, trying to see clearly with the help of the fluorescent spell.
Those eyes flashed to the side, and then a white thing ran past Allen.
In panic, this group of white shadows hit a piece of granite, staggered a few steps to the side, and in a blink of an eye they hid in another pile of black shadows in ruins.
Allen paused for a few seconds before deciding to follow.
At first, Alan couldn't find it, but after groping for a while in the ruins of the dark and unclear stone house, Alan found a round well, exactly the same as the wells he had found before.
However, the well was half-hidden by a fallen pillar.
Allen suddenly had a thought: Could the thing have been down the wall into the well?
Allen stuck his head out, looked down under the light of the fluorescent curse, and saw a white, fast-moving thing the size of a giant sea turtle.
As it crawled down, those big bright eyes stared straight at Alan, making Alan shudder!
It's like a big spider with an elderly face!
It was climbing down the wall of the well, when Allen noticed that along the wall of the well, there were many black protruding stones forming the ladder.
The humanoid spider crawled extremely fast, and soon disappeared into the darkness that the wand could not see.
"It seems that the ground under my feet must have been dug criss-cross. The tunnels in these round wells are the passages leading to the underground space." Allen secretly speculated.
In order to confirm his guess, Allen planned to go down to find out, but something caught his shirt.
Allen turned his head instantly, it was Tina and Sniff who had shrunk.
They were very anxious when they saw Alan's desire to go down.
Allen perceives that, relying on the natural instincts of animals, they perceive that there is something unfavorable to them in this well.
But Ellen had already aroused curiosity by the white human-faced spider, ignoring Tina and Sniff's obstacles, retracted them into the pet space and jumped over the well fence.
It must be admitted that Allen went down in a rush, because he was worried that in such a dark and unfamiliar and repressive environment, he would lose the courage to continue exploring in the next second.
After climbing down about two hundred meters, Allen felt very tired.
These raised stones were obviously prepared for human-faced spiders who were smaller and lighter than Alan. They were small and narrow, and Alan was not easy to get up. This awkward posture made him very uncomfortable to get up. If it was just falling like this, it would have been a loose stone step. The unbearable weight of Allen suddenly rolled into the deep well, almost throwing Allen into darkness. The bottom of the well.
Fortunately, the long exercise worked, and Allen held a raised stone in one hand and hung there.
After a false alarm, Allen endured the soreness of his arms and back and crawled down the well as quickly as possible.
I don't know how long I have been crawling, but Alan turned his mind several times and wanted to climb up, ignoring what was in the ground.
But after a few rounds of his mind, this idea was dispelled, because it might be harder and more tiring to go up-unfortunately, he has now entered the Hogwarts prohibition of apparition type area, otherwise it would be more convenient. Up.
Finally, Allen's feet reached the ground, and a small hole appeared in the well wall about a foot to his right.
Allen let out a long sigh of relief and got into the hole.
Inside the entrance is a narrow horizontal tunnel. Holding the magic wand, Allen carefully walked through the tunnel and came to a huge underground cave.
This is an arched cave that extends into the darkness beyond the wand.
A huge stone statue of a chicken snake beast cast a weird black shadow in this dim light.
The human-faced spider was hiding in the dark shadow, hiding from the light, looming.
There was a smell in the air. A little further away from the central clearing, the bones of small birds and beasts were scattered.
The strong smell of blood, the inexplicable stone statue, the human-faced spider lurking in the dark shadows all made people feel uncomfortable.
Alan thought he might have guessed wrong, how could Salazar Slytherin build a secret room in such a place!
He should have inadvertently broken into the lair of the human face spider. I just don’t know, there is only one such spider, or there is a group of them!
As if thinking that Alan could not pose a threat to it, the Human Face Spider actually crawled out of the shadows and quickly climbed towards Alan.
Allen used his magic wand to quickly launch an obstacle and knock it back, avoiding its hook-like feet.
At this moment, Allen saw clearly the spider-man's face that was neither human nor ghost—a pale face without a chin~EbookFREE.me~large, without eyelids, light red and slightly red. Grey eyes!
It looks disgusting!
The human-faced spider seemed to want to turn Alan into its food, opened his big mouth, and spit out a long spider silk, trying to entangle Alan.
"Flame raging!" The tongue of flame swiftly leaped towards the human face spider along the silk.
The human face spider quickly broke the silk and hid in the shadows.
The burning spider silk fell on the ground, and the fire gradually weakened. After the spider silk was burned out, it was extinguished.
Seems to see that Alan is not easy to mess with, and the Human Face Spider is going to escape.
The movement of it starting to retreat was caught by Allen.
Allen took advantage of the victory and pursued. The Human Face Spider tried his best to avoid Allen's attack, and was finally petrified in place.
Observing carefully in this cave, Allen found traces of chicken, snake, and beast venom.
The corpses of those birds and beasts were probably captured by chickens, snakes and beasts to feed human-faced spiders.
After carefully observing the life imprints of the chicken snake beast and the human face spider in the cave, Allen guessed that in return, the human face spider is likely to be the guardian of the chicken snake beast.
This proves that Allen's speculation may be correct, and there is indeed a way to the secret room!
Alan walked deep down the cave.
After walking for a while in the darkness, Allen came to a hall.
It seemed that the magic power from Alan's wand was detected, and the surrounding lights were bright.
The magic lights on the walls lit up one by one, and the bright light dispersed the darkness.
In the direction facing Ellen, a bronze gate stands in front of Ellen, on which is engraved an ancient magic text:
Only wizards of pure blood can enter this gate!
