Chapter 435 Death Curtain and [Mourning Mystery Box (Purple)]
Ted sent Professor Trelawney away with a solemn expression.
After Umbridge was kicked out, she resumed her position as professor.
Yesterday, the crystal ball beside her recorded that she inadvertently made a prophecy: the only person the Dark Lord feared finally died, and darkness will eventually envelope Britain.
The only person the Dark Lord fears, without much thought, is Dumbledore.
As an old man over a hundred years old, he was once Voldemort's professor, and he had been wary of him since he was a child... For Voldemort, Dumbledore was the person he hated and feared the most.
Without Dumbledore, he would have returned with great fanfare and taken control of the entire magical world.
So, Dumbledore is dying? !
According to Ted's observation, although Dumbledore is very old, he may still be quite far away from dying of old age.
So something unexpected happened.
What could have caused Dumbledore's death? Oh, no, it's a sacrifice!
He is not affected by the black magic on the resurrection stone Horcrux like in the original work, so he is not thinking about death.
In the original work, there is no other way, so I will resort to tricks. Things are looking great now, so why bother?
So what has Voldemort prepared?
Ted is a little stressed.
He found Snape. The underground office was still so dark, as if everything was shrouded in a thin black veil. Even the magic lights on the fireplace and walls couldn't illuminate this place.
Snape was sitting at his desk, writing experimental records in his notes, and the darkness would not affect him. Even in total darkness, he could see.
Snape is now a true legend, the ultimate potion master?
"Professor, there is something you need to know. Professor Trelawney just left my place..."
Hearing this, Snape finally put down the pen in his hand and looked up at Ted: "She made another prophecy?"
Trelawney's prophecy was really painful to Snape that he couldn't describe. Unexpectedly, more than ten years later, I would hear her prophecy again.
“What did she say?”
Ted sat across from him, "She said that the only person the Dark Lord feared has finally died, and darkness will eventually envelope Britain."
Snape closed the pen and leaned back in his chair: "Didn't the prophecy say anything about the Dark Lord's old enemy?"
Ted shook his head: "Maybe this prophecy is more about Dumbledore and not about Neville."
"Hmph, it doesn't matter. Who would expect a half-year-old child? Only a person like the Dark Lord who is afraid of death would choose to eradicate all hidden dangers, and in the end, the prophecy was fulfilled."
Snape did not expect Neville to defeat Voldemort. This was the difference between him and Dumbledore. Snape wanted to kill Voldemort himself!
The two discussed it and finally went to find Dumbledore.
Dumbledore has been staying at the school since the search for other Horcruxes failed. After all, the current atmosphere is very bad, Muggle society and the magical world are in turmoil, and the principal needs to be in charge.
Besides, the Horcrux thing has nothing to do with it.
Under Ted's control, four of Voldemort's weapons had been destroyed before Voldemort even gained momentum. With the addition of Neville's "supernumerary Horcrux", Voldemort was already at a disadvantage.
Dumbledore was quite surprised by the arrival of the two men. Since Nagini's condition stabilized, the two of them rarely came to the principal's office.
After all, both of them felt uncomfortable in Dumbledore's home court.
This is no ordinary place.
If Voldemort came here with a headache, he probably wouldn't have to use any other means, and his story would be over.
After listening calmly to Ted's prophecy about his life and death, Dumbledore nodded, very calmly.
Just like Snape gave up his endless pursuit of magic, Dumbledore also had no attachment to life long ago.
Family affection? love? Or something else?
The main reason why he is still alive and well now is that Voldemort is still alive. As the professor who introduced Voldemort into the magical world and taught him magic, he has the obligation to eliminate this hidden danger in the world.
Other than that, they don’t have much fun anymore.
Otherwise, why would he gorge on candy in search of that glimmer of false happiness?
Theoretically, wizards can live for a long time, but in fact there are very few wizards who can live to be two hundred years old.
On the one hand, it is a technical issue, which requires a very high level of magic, potions, and even alchemy.
On the other hand, it is about knowledge, three views, will and so on.
Humans are not an immortal species, and their thinking is not suitable for living too long.
If you live a meaningful life, have hobbies and goals, you can live to be more than a hundred years old. But no longer.
Nicolème and his wife tried to transform their thinking about immortality, but after a long six hundred years, they still chose to die.
They are too tired to live, and they are eager to start a new journey in the world after death.
Remember, the real fear is immortality.
"Ah, Sybil's predictions are always very accurate." Dumbledore said softly, "Maybe I should make some preparations?"
Sybill Trelawney is the full name, so the first name is naturally more familiar.
These professors in the school now all grew up under Dumbledore's watch.
Ted interrupted him: "Professor, I have to remind you that there are many ways for prophecies to be fulfilled. Professor Trelawney only 'saw' what will happen in the future. But eyes can be deceiving!"
When Dumbledore and Snape heard this, they both looked at Ted, and they suddenly thought of a possibility.
…
"Idiot, I told you, leave that guy alone, let alone interfere with his affairs!" Draco scolded his little brother Crabbe.
Now under Draco, there was only one Death Eater left who nominally obeyed his orders.
After all, many "actions", although with great results, have left the current British Ministry of Magic in a mess. Even the opinions on the forum are divided, and it seems that the results are good. But the price is not small!
There was only one Death Eater sent by Voldemort.
Draco still has to protect him now, don't let him die, otherwise it will easily arouse Voldemort's suspicion.
With such a watcher around him, Voldemort can rest assured that Draco can do things. However, Draco's own real small group is not allowed to have too much contact with this person.
It’s not because of anything else, but because I’m worried that if it gets too involved, it won’t be clear in the future.
Although Crabbe and Goyle are a bit naive, they are Draco's friends since childhood.
The two families, Goyle and Crabbe, also followed the Malfoy family several generations ago. The three families are closely related and form a small group. A bit like the Inokacho family of Konoha Village?
Hold together to enhance strength and status. This is a wise move.
“Next time, just say you don’t have time and find someone else to deliver the message to him. What if you are asked to contact the Death Eaters? Join them?!”
Draco was so angry, these two guys are just tall but not smart.
I don’t know what kind of feed they ate, but when they were seventeen years old, they both grew to over 1.9 meters tall! This isn't normal, is it?
Is this a wizard? The giant bloodline of our ancestors is about to awaken?
On the third day after Crabbe helped deliver the news, the Ministry of Magic was attacked!
More than forty wizards in total raided the Ministry of Magic.
Moreover, they directly raided the interior through the floo network, broke into the Department of Mysteries and carried out some damage. There must be something inside and outside cooperating!
Although the Ministry of Magic has been revised and enhanced after the goblin rebellion, it still allowed the opponent to succeed.
Before the elite Aurors arrived, the opponents had all left through a special teleportation device.
At present, it is only known that several warehouses of the Department of Mysteries have been destroyed, but the real purpose of the other party is still unknown.
But just four hours later, a simple arch carved from stone appeared in front of Voldemort in the Czech Republic.
This thing was previously kept in the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic, and has been there for hundreds of years!
Before the Ministry of Magic was officially established, this thing was "accommodated" by similar official loose organizations.
Over the past few hundred years, many wizards have studied this thing.
Finally gave it a name, called "curtain"!
As you approach this stone door, you can hear many people whispering, and the voices don't sound like living people.
Anything that passes through this door will disappear from this world.
This thing is considered to be one of the entrances to the afterlife. The so-called curtain is not only the curtain covering this thing, but also its name "death curtain". It symbolizes that there is only a thin curtain between life and death.
And Voldemort controlled the Death Eaters and "the newly acquired men" to raid the Department of Mysteries for this purpose.
Voldemort's image was different at this time. Although it was still the formalin-bleached color of three days after he died, and he still had no nose or eyebrows, there were strange dark purple patterns on his face and forehead.
After he mastered the soul magic of the alien warlock, he finally made up for the lack of his soul. Not only did he return to his peak, he even went to a higher level, breaking through the world's restrictions on dead souls and becoming a true legend. !
Dumbledore followed the path of transformation, Grindelwald followed the path of domination, Snape followed the path of potions, and Voldemort followed the path of the soul.
For example, those dark wizards who are very active and powerful recently but whose origins are unknown are actually long-dead dark wizards whom Voldemort tried to resurrect.
After obtaining the relics or remains of those dark wizards, Voldemort used ritual magic to "resurrection" them through his exclusive control of the souls.
In fact, those dark wizards from a hundred years ago, or even hundreds of years ago, were only half-living dead. The body is decayed and incomplete, and the mind is not very clear. Although the magic power is not low, it needs someone to direct it.
And Voldemort wanted this death curtain because he wanted to open the door to the afterlife and truly resurrect the dead!
In his opinion, those previous experiments could only be described as corpse puppets. It's of little use and can only be used as cannon fodder. Although in the sparsely populated magical world, cannon fodder is already very precious.
But Voldemort wanted more!
…
“Ding~The talent [Knowledge from Another World (gold)] was triggered, and the [Le Marchand’s Mystery of Mourning Structural Design (Purple)] was discovered.”
[Le Marchand’s Mystery: Mourning Structural Design (Purple)] The Mourning Mystery is a very peculiar structure created by a designer named Le Marchand. After being influenced by a mysterious power, he used human fat to Made of metal materials made from blood.
It is the key to Leviathan's **** and the great lock that closes hell. Activating the Mystery Box will lead to the pursuit of the Hell Monk. He will cause you as much pain as possible, and then drag you into the Leviathan Hell to become a nutrient.
Requires 3000 experience points to redeem.
“Oh, another wasted month.” Ted sighed.
He seems to know what this thing is, "The Ghost Hunters", right? At least that's how it's translated in China.
The whole head is cut into standard small squares with a knife, and then nails are driven into the intersection of the knife edges to transform the person into a **** monk.
Ted wants to give up on this exchange of knowledge. Apart from bringing pain to all creatures in the world, what is the use of this thing?
Make a giant version and open the gate to hell?
But with only 3000 experience, you can neither suffer losses nor be cheated. Buy it and take a look! In the current situation, you have to choose multiple roads, regardless of whether they are good roads or bad roads, as long as you can drive~
A burst of information appeared in Ted's mind. It was a very complicated design and a very **** and evil formula for an evil magic metal.
However, this design, which only had 3000 experience points, gave Ted a small surprise.
Originally, he thought that the thing designed by ordinary people couldn't be anything high-end, but just a combination of black magic and **** summoning.
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain!
This information contains a "World Structure Map"!
To be precise, it is "a method of constructing a cyclical small world with the original power of emotions"!
The mystery box is not important, the small world opened by the mystery box is important!
The Mystery Box is a key. Not only can it create a key to open the passage to Leviathan Hell, but it can also create a "small world" according to the key?
Eyah! There is an explanation for this! Do I create my own hell?
In any case, this method of using the original power of emotions to construct a small world is very special.
Like the Leviathan hell, it is a **** created by the painful emotions accumulated in the world for hundreds of thousands of years.
I feel like I can use it!
Just when Ted was planning to continue studying time magic, he always felt that there was something he had forgotten.
I had no choice but to put down the work at hand, sit cross-legged on the ground, close my eyes, and start retrieving the memories in my mind.
etc! found it!
A metal Rubik’s cube…
No wonder Ted felt a little familiar - when the goblins rebelled before, their superiors had a secret weapon in their hands, which was said to have the effect of reversing the situation of the war.
But because Ted was too mean, he chased after the signal and gave it to the whole family without having time to take it out.
Looking at the box now, it turns out to be a mystery box!
Has this thing already appeared in this world? !
No! To be precise, there are already too many weird things in this world.
Until now, Ted still hasn't figured out what the eyeball badge that mutated and activated the corpse of the former evil minister of magic Fudge was when he died? What origin!
well! I'm still here going back and forth with Voldemort, and I always feel like this world is a jujube pill!
happy New Year everyone!
Thank you to the book friend "Xiaoyao Daluo Immortal Chu Ritian" for the 500-point reward! Thanks!
