Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 454 Incomprehensible
453 Incomprehensible
Based on Toby's experience with Dumbledore for many years, he judged a result - Dumbledore will definitely try to contact Morgana, so as to reduce the possibility of Toby's success.

This is the only way the two can avoid direct conflict.

But for some reason, Dumbledore was in no rush to do so.Maybe it's because he also guessed what Toby was thinking, so he planned to wait until he was sure of everything before doing it?
No matter what, Toby didn't intend to wait any longer.

Coincidentally, Snape finally wrote a reply letter to Toby, mentioning in his heart the curse of the professorship of Defense Against the Dark Arts.
-
On the way back to the office, Morgana silently listened to Toby's account of what happened. She didn't make any comments on Toby's plan to build an army. Instead, she asked calmly: " If Dumbledore is really as powerful as you say, why should I help you?"

Toby glanced back at her.

"Because I connected you with Angela's soul. Without my help, you would never be able to escape the threat from Hai Erbo. Although this incident has not happened yet, I don't think you should either." Will it hurt so much that you want to smash your head out?"

Morgana silently put her hands on her head.

"Horcrux." She whispered: "You are right. I should listen to you now. Hai Erbo is not that easy to deal with. And it is even more difficult to deal with you."

Toby understood what Morgana said.

"It seems that we are going to go together." Toby said indifferently: "Yes, as long as you can control me, not only will you no longer have to face this kind of problem, but you may be able to completely regain your freedom. This is indeed the most direct There is a way, but I still want to advise you, even if you really plan to do this, it is best to wait until the full moon when I become weak, that is your most likely chance to succeed."

Morgana nodded silently—I don't know if it was because she was saying that she understood, or if she really had a plan in her heart.

The weird dialogue content ends here.

Office of Ancient Magic.

Angela was not here, and she ran away early after hearing that Morgana would come over in a while, so as not to be scrutinized by the other party.

Al was the only one in the office.

It is constantly taking out a lot of instruments from its belly pocket, repeatedly checking a letter on the table to see if there is any problem with it.

Toby explained, "I have a somewhat—how should I say this with this old friend?"

"There is no need to explain." Morgana interrupted: "I can see clearly, I used to treat the packages sent by Merlin in the same way."

"Oh?" Toby was a little surprised, but quickly returned to normal.

Because Al has raised his paw to indicate that the letter is okay.

Toby walked over and opened the envelope, then took out the letter paper inside and unfolded it in front of his eyes.

【You plan to use curses against Albus Dumbledore?It's a pity that you wrote this letter too late. Dumbledore found me before you. He probably guessed that you would do this long ago. 】

[Also, before you plan to implement some crazy plan next time, don't involve me in it again, otherwise you will send you more than just a letter with good words - remember to me! 】

Toby put the letter down expressionlessly.

He finally knew why Dumbledore had been so indifferent.

The Minister of Magic was actually able to figure out his own mind during his spare time of teaching, and was the first to find Snape.

Judging from Snape's description, it is estimated that Dumbledore did not have a good life after finding him, and he may have suffered a lot, so he warned Toby repeatedly to avoid being dragged into trouble again.

Morgana also finished reading the letter on her feet.

"I'd better think about my previous decision." She said after reading, "No matter how you look at it, compared with you, Dumbledore has a better chance of winning this round."
-
Toby felt targeted.

He couldn't figure out if Dumbledore had used all his brains on himself, which was why he hadn't been able to deal with Grindelwald, nor had he been able to defeat Voldemort with his own hands during the First Wizarding War.

The more Toby thought about it, the more likely it was.

He was so angry that he didn't want to talk, and there were no other thoughts in his mind.

It now appears that the method of using the position curse to deal with Dumbledore is prematurely invalid.No matter what he got from Snape and Voldemort, it would be of no use to him.

After briefly regaining his composure, Toby asked the sarcastic Morgana to "walk" out of the office in a "gentle" tone.

Just as he silently accepted Al's comfort and was sulking alone behind his desk, the door of the office was pushed open from the outside.

Angela walked in with a look of apprehension, followed by a natural person behind her - Dumbledore.

But unlike Toby's imagination, there was no relaxed expression on Dumbledore's face, but it became more dignified than ever.

"Voldemort's memory has been tampered with."

Dumbledore said seriously as soon as he came up: "I tried to see through the thoughts in his mind, but every time it was critical, it would turn into a cloud of fog—someone had tampered with his memory, the memory related to the curse of the position."

Toby understood immediately.

"No wonder Severus said that in his letter, you think he did it?"

"I've checked." Dumbledore shook his head and said, "It's not Severus, but someone else, I think you should have guessed it-Helpo, it can only be him. Maybe from his staring From the beginning of the Del couple, this result was already doomed-Voldemort will always be influenced by him, whether he knows it or not."

This discovery revealed a result that could not have been worse-no one knows what kind of curse Voldemort has set, and perhaps even whether the curse was cast by Voldemort.

But if Hai Erbo really did this, what was his purpose?
How could he have guessed the particularity of this course and the impact it would have on Hogwarts.

Or, this is what Hai Erbo wanted - a course that often leads to accidents.

Toby and Dumbledore stared at each other for a moment.

"Maybe he is also for today."

Toby said: "In order to give you the opportunity to go back to the day when you served at Hogwarts. Don't forget that the reason why Haier Po destroyed the Resurrection Stone was to stir up conflicts between the two of us. He seems to be keen For doing this, and this discovery is no exception, he is creating an opportunity to bring us back together, only then may it end up causing friction."

"You have to go, Minister."

Toby stared closely at Dumbledore: "Don't fall into Helbo's trap, this is what you have been admonishing me last semester, telling me not to investigate Angela's true identity."

"Now it's your turn, it's up to you to make a choice. My suggestion is to leave as soon as possible, so as not to be tricked by Hai Erbo again—you should also know that there must be no more unexpected situations between us gone."

Whether it's the difference in ideas between the two at the beginning, Angela's true identity, or the attitude of the two towards the students recently, all of them may ignite the conflict between the two.

But fortunately, there are still enemies at large, which prevents them from completely breaking up and maintaining a close cooperative relationship for the time being.

But this time is different.

Hai Erbo obviously intends to continue to disintegrate the cooperation between the two from within, otherwise he would not have to set such a curse on this course.

Dumbledore didn't respond to Toby immediately, instead he continued the previous topic and said: "Not only did it stir up conflicts between you and me, but also the curse itself. Although most of the former Defense Against the Dark Arts professors have safely resigned, But there are some people who are different - like Quirrell, who unfortunately died."

"This shows that this curse is likely to be more dangerous than we imagined, and I may die because of Hai Erbo's curse. If this is what he wants to do."

After listening to Toby, he questioned incomprehension: "Then what are you waiting for? Do you have to let Hai Erbo succeed?"

"No, Toby, no." There seemed to be some kind of power in Dumbledore's calm tone, which could keep Toby calm for a moment.

He seemed to know why Dumbledore was here.

"From today onwards, I will try my best to avoid conflicts with you. Even if you plan to use the students, you can ignore them for the time being. After all, it will have to wait until the mason tree is mature."

"In addition, I also want to give you something."

Dumbledore took out his wand and held it out to Toby.

"If I had to say that I would die after seeing the auto-casting wand, I think this should be the most likely reason. I can also be a devil, and I have the most powerful Elder Wand in my hand."

"Keep it safe, don't use it, don't use this death-related power—you've heard the real point. If when those black feathers are combined with this wand, with the power of death, What exactly will happen?"

"I think at least one of us will die."

"Fortunately, you have already made an auto-casting wand. I can't think of anyone other than you who is the most suitable person to keep this wand."

Toby took the Elder Wand silently, and Al and Angela's eyes were also fixed on the Elder Wand.

"actually."

Toby raised his head in embarrassment: "I thought you were going to give me other things—such as a suicide note. It seems that I was thinking too much. But that's okay, I just want to drive you out of Hoag It's just Watts, and I didn't intend to let you die, well, that's it."

Before Dumbledore's eyes became sharper, Toby stopped the conversation in time.

Dumbledore stared at Toby closely for a while, his tone not very friendly.

"Then I really want to thank you for your candor."
-
This matter ended temporarily with Toby's misunderstanding.

One thing Dumbledore was right about was that Toby couldn't make a second self-casting wand - not just because he didn't have a second black feather now, but also because he didn't have as many devils, It's just that I have become half, and it has already been used.

Perhaps the day Toby becomes a full-fledged devil will give him a chance to make a second autocasting wand?
But even Toby himself is not sure about this matter. Many things that happened to him are unprecedented, no one knows the exact answer, and there has never been such a special situation as half a devil. Toby had come across it himself.

Maybe even Hai Erbo himself didn't know what was going to happen.

In short, the Elder Wand fell into Toby's pocket so easily, and it was an honor to become one of Toby's many collections.

This wand was prayed by Antioch from the god of death, and to some extent, it contains the power of the god of death.

In fact, Dumbledore was not wrong about this matter-that is, no one can predict what will happen when making an automatic magic wand. be punished
Not only this, maybe even call Merlin out.

Toby thought about many messy guesses for this, but no matter what it was, it was destined to be a bad result.

The unknown is inherently bad, but it's even worse when it's connected to death.
-
After this incident passed, the school was quiet for a while.

Toby continued to teach the students as usual, and Dumbledore kept telling the students about real examples of duels, and then tried to let the students learn the experience.

But in these peaceful days, only one thing caught Toby's attention.

"Morgana is gone again, didn't she go to class?"

This is the news that Al secretly sent him.

Toby knew that it was impossible for Morgana to stay at Hogwarts honestly, and he had also seen Morgana communicate with other people—especially Pandora. heart.

But Morgana shouldn't be so blatantly skipping class anyway, she should have heard how much she hates students who don't love learning.

And this kind of students will be severely punished by Principal Haimo.

The earliest way of confinement has long been abandoned by Toby, and now he has new ways to deal with students - such as helping Antioch to clean every bone, helping the armor to apply maintenance lubricants (in the process The devil in Andros will continue to scare the students), and there is the more common homework punishment-after all, Toby is also for the students to study well.

But he didn't expect that Morgana couldn't wait to piss him off so soon.

"let me see."

Toby frowned tightly, staring at the branches extending from the cracks in the floor under his feet - this is the root of the mason tree, although it did not spread to the entire castle, it was more or less useful for detecting the location.

"Why are you there?"

Toby murmured to himself suspiciously.

Al looked over curiously.

"It's the abandoned bathroom on the second floor." Toby rubbed his chin and said, "Could it be that she's going to the Chamber of Secrets? But why is she chatting so happily with Myrtle?"
