Map Chamber?

Wizet glanced at the Moving Staircase and determined her location.

On the Marauder's Map, his name and the Weasley twins ' names appeared at the location of the Moving Staircase platform on the fifth floor.

Wizet pointed to the two parallel dotted lines and asked curiously, "George, do these dotted lines mark secret passages?"

"Yes!" George was pleased with Wizet's tone, raising his eyebrows and nodding. "We've learned a lot from this little darling!"

Fred, equally smug, added, "At least we can't learn as much from Lockhart and Trelawney!"

Wizet nodded. "I see! The secret passage you told me about last time was found on this map, right?"

George crossed his arms. "That's right! We have quite a few secret passages, all discovered from the map."

"Praise be to the Prongs and the Padfoot!" Fred exclaimed dramatically. "They're the ones who helped us!"

"Praise be to Moony and Wormtail!" George chimed in. "They are both incredibly noble people!"

"With their help, we were able to hold our own against Filch! That guy knows too many secret passages!"

"Oh, by the way, if you don't want to watch anymore, just take out your wand and tap it again..."

Following George's instructions, Wizet picked up her wand and tapped the Marauder's Map. "Mischief Managed!"

The Marauder's Map shrank visibly, the ink lines on it rapidly shrinking, and the once exquisite and complex map reverted to an old, square parchment.

He tried to return the Marauder's Map to George, but George pushed it back, saying, "Keep it! We've already memorized everything on the Marauder's Map!"

Wizet began, "But..."

Fred interrupted him, "No buts! Actually, we're giving it to you with a little something going on!"

"We still want to play with Filch! So... the task of finding the secret base is now in your hands!"

"Thank you!" Wizet said solemnly, deeply moved.

Whether from a practical or research perspective, the value of such a magic map is immeasurable.

The Weasley twins genuinely considered him a friend to be able to just hand him over like that.

"Your expression is great!" George made a photographic gesture. "It would be even better if you could add some tears!"

Fred chuckled, "Wizet, since you're willing to share your ' Magic Cube Theory ' with us, of course we'll give you our good stuff too. Don't be like that!"

Wizet nodded. "Alright! Leave the search for the secret base to me!"

He remembered that Fred and George had mentioned this when school started.

In fact, he happened to know that there was a place that was perfect for use as a secret base.

However, Serena told him about that place, so he would need to obtain Serena's permission to use it.

On the way back to the Common Room, Fred and George shared many of their past experiences.

It's all about how they, as freshmen, outwitted and outmaneuvered Filch.

Before they obtained the Marauder's Map, they were often at a disadvantage, frequently caught by Filch, who would drag them into his office for solitary confinement and call Professor McGonagall to deduct points.

They only gradually gained the upper hand after finding the Marauder's Map in a drawer marked "Confiscated Items, High Danger".

Back in the Common Room, Wizet didn't immediately return to her dormitory. Instead, she found a chair, sat down, and opened the notebook from Serena.

He still remembered the letter from back then, in which Serena had said they would "do their best to provide you with the appropriate assistance."

However, at the end of the Guardian Chamber, there is only this notebook.

Since the notebook possesses the magic of Portkey, it's possible that it could also conceal even more magic.

The notebook cover features a swirling crystal, much like the mechanism in the Guardian Chamber.

Wizet picked up her wand, pressed the tip against the crystal, and tried to infuse it with Ancient Magic Power.

After absorbing Ancient Magic Power, the crystal shard glowed with a silvery-blue light, and the vortex within it began to flow.

A message traveled along the tip of the wand to Wizet.

Just as he guessed, this notebook could not only be used as Portkey, but also as a communication tool to contact Serena and the others.

Wizet opened the notebook, used her wand as a pen and Ancient Magic Power as ink, and wrote a message on it:

[Hello, Ms. Pendragon. I would like to use that warehouse room, is that alright?]

Just as he was about to close the notebook, a series of words suddenly appeared on it:

[What a polite junior! I didn't expect you to get the laptop so quickly; you seem to be a man of action! That storage room? You mean the Mystic Corridor? Of course you can use it!]

Wizet replied: [Okay, thank you!]

[Just call me Serena next time. By the way... you're still up so late, are you enjoying the nightlife?]

Yes, I found quite a few interesting books in the Restricted Section.

[The Restricted Section... what a nostalgic time. Oh, right! The Portkey in the notebook isn't just for the Chamber of Secrets behind the Mystic Corridor; there's another place we can go.]

[Another place.]

That place is called the Map Chamber. I spent quite a bit of time searching for Map Chamber. If you're interested, you can go check it out sometime.

Considering the Ancient Magic Armor found in the Mystic Corridor, one might need to face similar challenges to enter the Map Chamber.

Wizet remembered that Dumbledore had told him at the end of the previous school year that he would teach him how to cast Armor Magic.

He planned to wait until he learned the Armor Magic before exploring the Map Chamber.

In this way, we should be able to better understand Armor Magic from another perspective by directly confronting Ancient Magic Armor.

On Sunday morning, he spent most of his time working on Potions, brewing a large crucible of Developing Potion, enough for a semester.

However, everything is going according to plan.

After preparing the Developing Potion, he still had time to borrow Colin Creevey's Polaroid camera and take many photos with Luna by the Black Lake.

Soaking photos in Developing Potion for a period of time will bring the scenes and people in them to life, preserving the emotions at the time of the photo shoot, which is quite interesting.

At 1:50 p. m., ten minutes early as usual, Wizet arrived at Professor Snape's office.

The office hadn't changed much, except for a cloth covering a corner, and a faint rustling sound could be heard, like the sounds of creatures feeding...
