Hogwarts 1991

Chapter 399 [Transferring Phantom]

[Soul-shifting Phantom] is McGuffin's original new magic spell based on some black magic information knowledge he learned from Voldemort's notes, plus the experience of ancient magic spells he had learned before, combined with some of his own thoughts on "Theseus Curse", plus the inspiration for the enslaved magic contract that evolved in the blood of the house elves, and the completion of the final system...

It is different from the rumored [Imperial Curse] of the African voodoo soul-destroyer, or the unforgivable type of [Imperial Curse] spread in Europe.

completely different.

If you have to compare, this new spell is more inclined to the legendary [Theseus spell], or it is similar to the magic contract in the blood of the house elves.

It is not the kind of magic spell that directly and strongly controls people's minds,

It will not confuse people like [Confusion Curse] and other spells that attack the mind, so that others can easily find out that something is wrong.

Compared with those tough controls, the [Imperius Curse] that forces the victim to submit.

This new spell is just an idea implanted in the brain.

One of the simplest and most direct ideas.

As described in the movie [Inception],
Just one thought and everything will be completely different.

When the ship of Theseus is replaced with a different material, even a single screw, the ship is strictly speaking different from the previous second.

McGuffin would plant a simple idea in Wormtail's brain——

write diary.

- Write a diary every day in a specific notebook.

Then keep strengthening, he himself will treat it as his own thoughts and decisions, just like obsessive-compulsive disorder, and then start to write down the details of the things he encounters every day in a certain diary.

Even Voldemort's [Installation] would not have noticed the poor hobby of this humble servant.

But McGuffin can get information through another notebook that is connected to that notebook (these notebooks are provided in Zuko’s joke shop, and they are often used by witches and witches from different colleges in Hogwarts to fall in love. McGuffin has seen it on Percy and Penello),
Through this method, McGuffin can easily and safely know Voldemort's lair, the people they have seen, and most importantly... where is [Nagia]?

Nobody cares about the petty hobby of a cowardly, timid, friend-beating guy.

What's more, McGuffin can roughly know from the plot, from his understanding of the Ministry of Magic and other wizards over the years, that the last two magical world wars were not that grand at all, and some just relied on their own magical strength to bully the weak.

There are no organized institutions of violence at all.

The legendary ancient Rome, the wizarding empire of ancient Egypt,
Those alien legions, magical secret societies, fire dragons, phoenixes, goblins in the medieval wizarding era... the wars that formed armies between various ethnic groups and countries to fight each other have long since disappeared.

The plot may change, but the level cannot be improved.

These Death Eaters are not even as good as village-level fighting or Muggle underworld fighting.

From the fact that Voldemort hid as soon as he lost his magical power, and the Death Eaters dispersed in a hurry, we know the urine nature of these guys.

It's all petty conspiracies and tricks.

It's just relying on one person's strength to go berserk.

Even if the Dark Lord Grindelwald launched a war that almost swept across the entire modern western magical world, it can only be said to be an ancient war with a fantasy color.

It can't be compared with the two life-and-death wars in the Muggle society at the same time, which almost ruled a certain country, or organized the society to a dead end.

What's more, who would believe that in the trial against Voldemort's Death Eaters 12 years ago, the Ministry of Magic actually let Lucius and the others go, but arrested at least twenty Death Eaters, and they were still locked up in Azkaban.

Is this the team for Voldemort's comeback?

And now that kind of pure-blood wizard supremacy is still an aboveboard doctrine in Slytherin.

No reckoning at all, or punitive measures.

Although the West, both Muggle and wizarding world, has this kind of piss...

But at least confirm the life and death of Voldemort, the leader of the dark wizard, right?

This group of people, especially the entire British wizarding world, seemed to be demented, unable to see the danger.

MacGuffin shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He refocused his attention on his current situation.

Originally, he wanted to go to the [House of Requirement] to create a room that no one could enter, to cast the spell of [Transfer Soul Phantom] on Wormtail. After all, it is best for him to perform this matter alone.

Trying a new spell for the first time, he'd better find a quiet place where no one would disturb him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went down to the common room, Ron, Harry, and Hermione who had just arrived pulled him up to the one-eyed witch statue on the fourth floor.

This guy Ron insisted on taking this opportunity to visit Hogsmeade.

"I saw the names of George and Fred disappear in it with my own eyes... They must have gone to Hogsmeade to stock up."

Ron said confidently, "Harry, you saw it too, didn't you?"

"Ok!"

"We should tell the professors that those Death Eaters and Sirius Black may come to Hogwarts through this passage!"

Hermione retorted softly.

Ron sneered, "I've never heard of these guys near Hogwarts recently, I guess they have fled England... Besides, Hermione, you don't want to think about how many Aurors are piled up here at Hogwarts because of Professor Lupine..."

"And Hermione, what are you doing here... Actually, you also want to go to Hogsmeade, don't you?"

"No!" Hermione blushed, as if she was trying to find some excuse, "I'm just curious...well, just to stop you from doing stupid things!"

"Ron, there is no little wizard among Hogsmeade demons at all. George and Fred will be found as soon as they appear in the magic village, and they will be told by the local residents to the professors."

"How could it be hidden?" Hermione tried her best to dispel Ron's thoughts.

But when it came to thoughts about Jin Gallon, Ron's intelligence would more than triple out of thin air. He said calmly as if he had seen through everything, "They must have signed a magic contract with some magic shops... I have already said that they have purchase channels."

"McGuffin, you must know something! Otherwise, they wouldn't have given you the [Marauder's Map] and asked you to make a large package that can be loaded..."

"And you... Hermione, you just heard that the twins went to Hogsmeade, so you followed... You don't want to catch those two guys... Threatening them."

"Yes, I see, you want them to join your 'house-elf' puke'!"

Ron suddenly realized, and pointed out all the truth.

Hermione became a little annoyed, "It's the House-Elf Rights Promotion Association, it's SPEW!"

Every word she said was extremely angry.

"No way! I thought you gave up this SPEW thing!" Harry said in surprise.

"I didn't give up, I just put my energies on the exam study for the time being.... Only when the house elves get decent wages and the working environment they want can I initially achieve my vision!"

Hermione didn't say much, she looked around angrily, and seeing no one, she simply took out her wand, followed the prompts of the [Marauder's Map], and knocked on the stone witch.

"Left and right separation!"

The statue's hunched back parted to reveal a passage, just about the size of a man, big enough for them to enter.

"Hermione you!" Everyone was surprised.

"Come in!" Hermione urged them unceremoniously.

Ron naturally didn't even think about it, he folded the map, put it under his arm, and got into the tunnel.

Harry hesitated and followed behind.

McGuffin thought about it, but actually going to Hogsmeade is fine too... There aren't so many young wizards at all, so it should be easy to find a place where they won't be disturbed after parting with them.

So he lowered his head and crawled forward into the secret passage.

Finally, Hermione poked her head and saw that no one was coming from the corridor, she backed into the corridor of the tunnel, and tapped the stone statue in the same way.

Soon, the statue immediately closed up.

The stone path was plunged into darkness.

"Luminescence!"

What appeared in front of me was a rather narrow, slightly sloping stone slide, leading all the way to the dark depths.

At this time, Harry finally asked his own doubts just now, "Hermione, are... what Ron said is true?"

"Hmph, he's right, go in quickly. I'll monitor you, and we won't go out until the end. Strictly speaking, we haven't left the scope of Hogwarts school."

"We just caught the twins, stopped their wrongdoing, and let them devote themselves to a greater cause." Hermione said angrily.

"Okay, okay...okay! You're right." Ron responded, as if he was happy with you, and then he raised his wand and clicked on the [Marauder's Map] contentedly, "I announce that the prank is over!"

The map turned into a blank, and it was automatically folded and rolled up.

"Let's go!" Ron shouted excitedly, put away the map, and rushed forward quickly.

Hermione understood that Ron didn't listen to her words at all, but she could only roll her eyes and followed him.

The stone path that sloped down was a little slippery, and they had to be careful not to slip down.

After walking for a long time, finally in the end,
The stone path was left behind, and below their feet was a cold and wet land.

Several people looked around through the fluorescent image.

It is a narrow and low dirt road, with uneven stones piled on the two walls. This tunnel is like an ancient maze, dark and deep, with twists and turns, and there are even some small forks not far away.

But these side roads can be seen at a glance, so they are not afraid of getting lost, and it is easy to know which road is the right one.

When McGuffin and the others raised their footsteps and walked forward in the underground secret passage.

The twin brothers who were one step ahead of them had already arrived at the foot of a dilapidated stone step. While talking, the two slowly climbed up as usual.

"How many Galleons have we earned all this time, Fred?"

"Well, about 100 or so?"

"So little?" George asked.

"The cost, as well as the dividends paid to Ron and Jordan...not to mention that we don't dare to increase the price by selling a little wizard, or someone will definitely inform us. We can only earn more pocket money with a small amount of money."

"What's more, now is the last time! Summer vacation is coming soon."

"Yeah, the last time, but we will be in Hogsmeade later, we can buy some magic props for the Quidditch match a few days later, it should make a lot of money..."

"..."

"Don't be caught by Percy in the end. Fortunately, he has been busy these two days revising some new laws about werewolves to prepare for the interview with the Ministry of Magic... Um, here we come."

The two stopped.

They held up their wands, and the faint blue fluorescent lights illuminated their eyes.

The bar in front of the two is a floor door.

Three palms wide, arm-length iron bars tightly bound a dilapidated wooden door that looked like it was made of oak, and there were many holes and insect holes scattered on the edge of it.

After the two of them panted and rested for a while, they were excitedly preparing to open the door.

——Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt!
The floor door vibrated vigorously, and the dust scattered from the edge of the door, which was very choking, as if someone had stepped on it.

"stop!"

George immediately stretched out his arm to stop Fred, "Something's wrong!"

Then a shrill, maniacal laugh came faintly from the basement above.

This frightened the two of them to quickly extinguish the light on the tip of the wand.

They slowed their breathing and began to listen quietly.

"No more? Voice!" Fred said in a low voice, as if exhaling softly, "What's going on? It doesn't feel like the Froomes...they never open or pass through this door..."

Before he finished speaking, the trap door began to move, as if someone was about to open it from the inside.

This made the two even more nervous and frightened.

The two of them thought they had set up an underground black market in Hogwarts to trade magic candies, but they were finally discovered.

The two were very afraid that a professor would open the door and see them from there.

"Use the invisibility spell!"

"Quickly stealth!"

"Get out of here quickly, quickly!"

"Turn off the lights, quick!"

The two whispered anxiously, waved their wands tremblingly, and after trying several times, they finally concealed their bodies and began to walk down the stone steps.

Since they dared not light up their wands, they could only walk slowly in the dark.

Fortunately, for some reason, the trap door seemed to be difficult to open from the inside.

The guy on the opposite side tried deadlifting several times, but couldn't open it.

However, suddenly,
--boom!

Just when the twins thought they would just pass by like this, there was a sudden loud noise from the top of the steps, and the oak door was blown to pieces.

After a loud bang,

Smoke, dirt, small stones, wooden fragments on the door, and large pieces of iron rolled down from above and were submerged. The two hurriedly avoided the side.

Not the professors at the school, the professors don't do that.

What happened immediately proved the conjecture in the twins' hearts at this time.

A shrill, piercing laugh came from up there,

It's so crazy and hysterical.

"Piercing to the bone!"

—Ah, ah, ah!

A man's screams followed, hoarse and hoarse.

"Please, Bellatrix...please..."

A woman was wailing, and her miserable scream passed down the stone steps, trembling continuously in this narrow corridor, forming a ringing sound with the stone steps, as if trembling slightly with an ending sound.

George and Fred almost fell straight down.
