My classmate at Hogwarts is Voldemort

Chapter 640 Lucky Gold Coin
"prophecy?!"

The voice from above the stairs was full of shock, and this was the first time that Haierbo showed other emotions besides indifference and arrogance.

"Yes."

Tom raised his leg and stepped towards the steps. The moment his left foot landed on the first step, countless snakes rushed out from the grass on both sides of the steps, filling the stairs densely, making people feel uncomfortable. The scalp is numb, and there is nowhere to go, "I am a prophet."

["Keep going," Nelson's voice rang in Tom's ear, "This is Herbo's usual trick, and those dementors hesitated at this step and ended up."]
Tom smiled and stepped heavily on the steps. The poisonous snake at his feet suddenly sprang up and opened its mouth to bite his ankle, but Tom ignored it and let the snake bite on his ankle. The sharp fangs crossed Tom's skin, and the poisonous snake burrowed into the grass on the other side. If his footsteps trembled at that step just now, the venom had already spread to the whole body along the blood vessels.

["Very well," Nelson sat across from Pythia, and under her worried eyes, said each word after a while, "If you have already retreated in Sicily, then the fate that awaits you is to be a slave." A puppet bound in the shell of the Yin Corpse, this is also the way Haierbo's huge army 'conscripts', he never cares about superficial awe and loyalty, because when you really meet him, you will definitely offer awe and loyalty, soul His fear and recognition are the loyalty he needs.”]
Tom stepped forward, picked up the steps, and quickly approached the terrifying temple on the top of the mountain.

"boom!"

A thunderbolt exploded above his head, turning everything around him pale, including the poisonous snakes lingering on the steps, like dead bones lying on the road.

Seeing that such harassment was not enough to shake Tom, the snakes retreated, leaving behind clean stone steps, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

Hai Erbo's voice sounded again: "Tell me, why did you come here, why did you choose to find me."

"I see that your brilliance will shine on the entire peninsula, and then radiate to the entire continent. It will cross the ocean and fly into the sky." Tom pressed his right hand to his chest, feeling the tremor of the gold coin, and repeated Nelson's eulogy emphatically, "It is a crazy giant tree that never stops growing. It embraces all the people under the sun. The ocean is only a smooth path for it. On the other side of the ocean, there are countless lambs waiting for their king. Build roads and bridges on the vast continental shelves and ice sheets, so that the mysterious country will no longer be mysterious, it will allow the world to use the same ruler, speak the same words, walk the same road, and worship the same god!"

Hai Erbo was stunned and did not respond for a long time. Obviously, even a person who loves being sought after like him has never felt such a boast. Tom's words even made this despicable black wizard start to feel intoxicated .

Yeah, why can't I be God?

He thought of Tom's rhetorical question in Sicily again. Amidst Tom's uninterrupted praise, he watched him climb up the stairs and walk into the mouth of the snake bone.

Nelson on the other side of the gold coin also fell silent. He knew that Tom was very good at inventing words and sentences, but he didn't expect to be so good at it. Stepping quickly into the temple, he always had a pilgrimage-like expression on his face, and his footsteps changed from heavy to joyful, which seemed extremely natural.

What he didn't expect was that the temple here was actually the same as the Temple of Apollo in Pythia, with a magnificent exterior, but there was no furniture inside, and even the placement of sundries was exactly the same.

Tom opened his eyes wide. The ever-burning candles in the hall made his eyes pale. He hadn't seen such a dazzling light for a long time. He greedily stared at these cherished light sources, but just when his eyes finally adapted to the strong light Finally, the candles were extinguished in unison, leaving only the same darkness as outside.

["Helbo has spent three full years on a powerful spell that can change the environment. This is also the beginning of the peninsula's transformation from symbolic darkness to literal meaning, according to the wizards who escaped under the protection of the Temple of Apollo. , the rest of the peninsula, except for some city-states under the protection of powerful wizards, has fallen into a long eternal night, especially at the southern end of the peninsula, south of the Temple of Apollo, where plants have stopped growing. Since Haierbo wants to rule , will definitely not rule the scorched earth, and the duration of this magic will not be particularly long, that is to say, it is getting closer and closer to success.”]
Tom closed his eyes and sank himself into the darkness.

["When I was trying to communicate with the Misty Illusion, I found some unresolved memories. His magic power is much stronger than I expected. It will be extremely difficult to confront him head-on, but fortunately, his use of magic is still immature," Nelson waved his wand, and under Pythia's surprised gaze, he called out a few thick notebooks, and said quickly: "You must be careful, I have collected some dark clouds on the edge for analysis, and its composition is a little foggy. He should have begun to explore death, and this should be the prototype for him to establish the foundation of black magic."

Pythia looked at Nelson's busy back in a daze. She didn't understand why Nelson could find so much information that she didn't understand in just one month. Maybe people in the future have three brains?What is the blurry illusion he was talking about?Pythia suddenly felt an unbearable stabbing pain deep in his head.

"You need to mislead him in the direction of researching and developing black magic as much as possible," Nelson said. "If you can't weaken him, don't make him stronger. I'm already trying to contact those who resist him."

"Keep the call open, Tom, if you encounter a situation where you must cut off the communication, you must not cut off the reception of the information on my side. Believe me, no one in this world can crack what I created," Nelson said. Shen Sheng said, "He has a kind of superstition and fear of fate, make good use of it, I will send you the detailed logic of his behavior after a while, since you have already gone, I believe you can gain his trust ,at last……"

Nelson was silent for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "Good luck, this is... my prophecy!"]
A smile appeared on Tom's face, and he thought, "Don't you believe in fate?"

There were rustling noises coming from the darkness. Tom lowered his head, and a poisonous snake with an apple in its mouth crawled out from under the pillar beside him. Its white fangs pierced deeply into the skin of the apple, aging and corrupting it almost instantly. , the bright red was replaced by crumpled black in the breath, and the fermented juice flowed out from the broken skin, and for a while, the whole temple was filled with the smell of rotten apples and alcohol.

Tom was almost drunk after just one sniff. He held his breath and tried to reduce the frequency of his breathing, but his body, which became hot from thinking, protested, but Tom still persisted until he saw the poisonous snake attacking the stone. The apple, which had been rotten, its juice drained dry, and turned into a shriveled black garbage was injected with poison, and in the blink of an eye, it became plump again, as if nothing had happened just now, only the smell of alcohol in the temple proved What Tom saw was no hallucination.

His pupils narrowed slightly, and he noticed a flash of green light at the junction where the fangs inserted into the pulp.

"What else did you see?"

Helbo's voice came from the snake's belly, getting closer and closer to Tom as he climbed, "I can tell you what I saw, I saw fear, I saw timidity, I saw repentance, I saw It's the miserable appearance of you crying bitterly and wanting to beg my forgiveness."

"I do not have."

Tom shook his head frankly, "Fate will not deceive me."

"You are very cunning, young, ambitious, and you have the same look in your eyes as when I was young... Looking at it so closely, you are somewhat similar to me."

The poisonous snake with an apple in its mouth climbed up Tom's trouser legs, its icy tail slapped on his chest, feeling the calm heartbeat that Tom tried to suppress, like a cold-blooded animal, it jumped onto Tom's shoulder, lapping round and round Wrapped around Tom's neck, it could easily bury him in suffocating despair with a little force, but it didn't do that, but raised its head high, swung it and moved it in front of Tom, using Those seaweed-rich green eyes met his.

The viper's vertical pupils slowly expanded and turned into two bottomless caves. Tom looked at them calmly, and there was no reflection of each other in the same deep black.

Time passed by, and the tail of the snake slowly reached out to Tom's arm, lifting the gold coin he was holding tightly. When the poisonous snake appeared, the delicate parts in the gold coin were silent for a moment, and Nelson and Tom's connection was also unilaterally cut off by Tom, and he fell into silence, which allowed him to only feel the cold touch of the metal of this "lucky coin" that was consistent with ordinary gold coins. The situation that Nelson mentioned not long ago happened soon.

The viper's lower abdomen was pressed against Tom's chest, and his heartbeat remained unchanged until it wrapped its tail around the gold coin and pulled it away from Tom's hand. Tom's heartbeat, which was as calm as stagnant water, finally stirred up a little ripple.

"I can't bear to turn a man as interesting as you into a pile of rotten meat," the poisonous snake opened its mandible at a terrifying angle. It was obviously not big, but it was enough to bite off Tom's head. The constantly decaying and constantly growing apple fell from its mouth, and fell into the folds of Tom's robe just right, and was pinned around his waist. The snake mouth opened and closed, showing the same expression as a real person, "Laurel pattern, you Have you seen my little sun?"

It was obvious that the one who opened his mouth was a poisonous snake, but Tom clearly heard the voice coming from behind him. He remained motionless, playing the role of a confident prophet with the greatest acting skills in his life.

"There is indeed good sunshine there that cannot be seen elsewhere."

"Really?" Haierpo's voice surrounded Tom, and the scene in the surrounding temple flickered from time to time, "Do you like her?"

"she?"

"Haha," Haierbo didn't respond to this question. He laughed twice and changed the topic abruptly. The icy cold wind immediately enveloped Tom and almost stopped his thinking. Tom's body began to tremble involuntarily. , Haierbo's voice suddenly thundered next to his ears, "If you have seen the priestess, you should know that there can only be one prophet in an era!"

After all, without waiting for Tom to react, he said softly in a soul-piercing voice: "I can give you a chance to admit your deception, and I don't care about it."

The snake tightened its body and strangled Tom's neck. Tom had countless opportunities to pull out his wand and tear the snake apart, but he finally held back, believing Nelson's prophecy.

"You are not a prophet, but your magic is enough for you to gain glory and power under my sway, young man," Hai Erbo's voice was full of bewitchment, and Tom saw a white hand stretched out from his right back to his front , holding the gold coin engraved with laurel patterns between his fingertips, Haierbo was standing behind him, "You don't have to pretend to be able to see through fate, we have similar looks, strengths and desires, tell me your purpose, Then use it for me."

The viper suddenly relaxed, and the bad apple-smelling air rushed into Tom's lungs. His near-fuzzy consciousness quickly returned to clarity. In the corner of his eye, the light of the gold coin became the only light in his darkened vision.

"Lucky gold coins, huh?"

"Are you a prophet?"

Tom stood motionless, and out of Harper's surprise, he asked a question.

He obviously saw that the hand holding the gold coin paused, and Hai Erbo's normal voice came from behind: "I'm not."

"But I am."

Tom didn't seem to answer anything, but he seemed to answer everything. Even a god would make a misjudgment because of things he didn't understand.

Tom could see the gnashing of teeth behind him as Harpo took hold of his lucky coin.

"Prove it to me!" Demeanor and gentleness are gone, and only bloody tyranny remains after the disguise is removed, "In order not to let you fool me with some prophecies heard from elsewhere, I want you to tell me that when you come What will happen on the island!"

"If you really think that the prophet can predict everything, then of course 'elsewhere' can tell me what questions you will ask, and prepare the answers in advance," Tom smiled, his face slightly tilted in the direction of the coin, he Feeling that the rhythm has returned to his own hands, it seems that he is in an unknown era, but he and Nelson are fully capable of creating Haierbo's unpredictable information gap. Before Haierbo was angered, he looked at the gold coin and said softly, "Soon there will be a volcano erupting."

"Soon after?"

Hai Erbo didn't seem to hold the gold coin firmly and let it slip from his hand, but what Tom saw was Nelson's anger, he grabbed the gold coin, felt the familiar tremor in his palm, and said with a smile: "It's now."

"now--"

"boom!"

Everything in the temple and even outside the temple, stone steps, snakes, and mist were shattered like a mirror, and there was a crisp explosion. Behind the explosion was natural fury. Tom opened his eyes, and his sight was covered by red Filled with light, he rubbed his eyes, turned around, and behind him was a gate of light that was slowly dissipating.

The ground under his feet trembled violently, and the walls of the ancient castle collapsed like building blocks in the rift. Through the cracks in the walls, he saw angry lava spewing from the hill behind the ancient castle, and a silver light flashed in the firelight. passed away.

The shouts in his ears should not belong to this silent island, Tom quickly came to his senses, the silence should not belong to this island.

He looked at the fireworks-like volcano in front of him. Floors and bricks fell from his head, but none of them hit him.

Tom opened his palm and artificially turned the coin to the obverse of the laurel.

"Lucky gold coins, huh?"
