Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Dumbledore just checked it quietly. Ivan's current magic power is extremely good among his peers, but it is impossible to reach a quarter of his own.

It's not its own magic power, which means that Ivan must be carrying a powerful magic item with him, what could it be? !

Dumbledore looked at Ivan carefully, his pale blue eyes full of curiosity.

Like Tom Riddle back then, this student brought too many surprises to himself.

Truth be told, Dumbledore didn't like the feeling of being out of his grasp.

But he didn't intend to take action. What happened to Tom Riddle had already taught him enough lessons.

Over the years, Dumbledore has been thinking that Riddle has gone further and further down the wrong path, and he has an inescapable responsibility for what he did back then.

Gellert Grindelwald, his former best friend, left a deep impression on him.

Dumbledore originally thought that he had forgotten those things, but many years later, when he saw young Tom Riddle for the first time in the orphanage, the appearance of that man reappeared in front of his eyes.

He knew he had to stop young Riddle, stop him from becoming a second Grindelwald, stop him from going astray and becoming a second Dark Lord.

But he failed himself, and the end result was even worse.

Dumbledore sighed, maybe when this idea came to his mind, it was already doomed to fail.

Perhaps, this is the source of all the unfortunate things that happened later.

Chapter 215 Finding Regulus

Dumbledore knew that he had to be careful. The temptation of power was infinite. On the road of magic, the more talented a wizard was, the easier it was to go astray.

For most wizards, magic is just waving a wand and saying a few spells.

Only a very few talented wizards clearly know what the essence of magic is and what powerful magic power will bring them.

Powerful power combined with unrestrained ambition brings only disaster and destruction.

Voldemort is the most obvious example. His excellent spellcasting talent and blood from Salazar Slytherin himself made him think he was unique.

He is superior to others, and his arrogance has been expanding, and he even thought he was a god in the end.

Everything he does is self-centered, and he doesn't consider other people's feelings. The dark growth trajectory makes him not understand what love is.

Look at the things he did back then, killing people wantonly, advocating the status of pure-blood wizards over mudbloods and Muggles, etc.

These things are not as noble as Voldemort and the Death Eaters preach.

From Dumbledore's point of view, the reason he did it was simply because he wanted to, and he wanted to prove to be different.

He therefore abused his magic powers and disregarded life.

In order to gain immortality, he even split his soul to make Horcruxes.

As early as 20 years ago, when Riddle, who had been missing for a long time, returned to Hogwarts with his new face and applied to himself for the position of professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Dumbledore keenly felt the insanity of his soul. Stablize.

Dumbledore suspected at the time that Riddle was conducting some kind of evil black magic research, and various signs later showed that he was making Horcruxes.

The most unexpected thing happened, Dumbledore didn't know how many times Voldemort had split his soul.

This evil black magic makes him an unkillable monster.

Dumbledore looked at Ivan again. So far, they have destroyed two Horcruxes.

And these things are all related to this child, is this a coincidence, or...

In addition to all these coincidences, what surprised Dumbledore even more was that Ivan had already touched the door of power, and what he was missing now was only time.

Ivan is as good as Tom Riddle in his student days, far beyond his peers.

The only good news is that he is different from Riddle. He has a complete family and friends, knows what love is, and understands the meaning of life.

Judging from the currently observed situation, it is impossible for Ivan to become the second Voldemort.

A smile appeared on the corner of Dumbledore's mouth. Although he didn't show up until the end, he knew everything about what happened at Hogwarts a few days ago.

What made him most gratified was Aiwen's final choice on the life and death of Peter Pettigrew.

Even in the face of the threat of those giant acromants, Ivan did not give up Peter Pettigrew and ran for his life, but insisted on running away with him.

Dumbledore was very satisfied with Ivan's performance that night.

He thought, maybe he should give this child more help.

He is already very old, and if he fails to find all of Voldemort's Horcruxes in the end, Ivan will become an indispensable help.

In the center of the island, Aiwen let go of his control on the stone giant while calculating his magic power consumption.With his current ability, he still can't turn this blue boulder into something more complicated, but being able to activate it is already quite a success.

He was going to try other magic. If not everyone was here, Ivan also interrupted to try the spell of summoning demons recorded in "Secrets of Advanced Black Magic". This was the first time he had seen this kind of magic.

On the small island, more and more corpses emerged from the lake in all directions.

Under their attack, everyone kept falling back and gathered around the stone basin.

Infernal corpses are difficult to destroy, their magic power has been exhausted, Sirius, Ivan, Harry, and Hermione use various spells to delay their steps as much as possible.

The pressure was still increasing, and just when everyone was about to be unable to hold on, Dumbledore made a move. The spell he used was exactly the same as Ivan just now.

He waved his magic wand, and four heavy black boulders floated up from the ground, and with a loud friction sound, they turned into four huge giant monsters in an instant.

It's not the unfinished state of Aiwen, they are exactly the same as the real trolls, and there is almost no trace of the transformation. The four trolls howled rudely, holding a thick big stick in their hands as arms.

Ivan looked at Dumbledore in surprise, and found that Dumbledore was looking at him calmly, and motioned Ivan to pay attention to his next actions.

The wand in his hand danced in a strange trajectory, as if he was directing an orchestra to play.

Under Dumbledore's control, the trolls rushed from the center of the island in four directions, rampaging among the corpses.

With a few loud bangs, they were so powerful that many Yin corpses were directly knocked back into the dark lake water.

The intense collision picture in front of them made everyone feel a joyful feeling from the bottom of their hearts.

The giant monsters were covered with corpses, but they didn't take a step back. They were using their bodies to fight head-to-head with the corpses.

Ivan looked at Dumbledore in astonishment, he couldn't imagine how much magic power this would consume.

After Dumbledore made a move, everyone felt much less stressed, and they focused on finding Regulus among the dense crowd of corpses.

Ai Wen's eyes swept across the dead bodies with pale faces and ferocious faces. Looking at them, he couldn't describe in words what kind of feeling it was.

If I had to say it, it was absolutely terrible.

At this moment, Kreacher suddenly shouted, "Master Regulus, Kreacher has found Master Regulus!"

Aiwen hurriedly looked in the direction pointed by the house-elf. He saw the corpse of a teenager about eighteen or nineteen years old just crawling out of the lake. He was wearing a black wizard robe different from the surrounding Muggles, and there was a particularly obvious scar on his chest The crest of the Black family.

The appearance of Regulus was very similar to that of Sirius in his youth. Under the influence of magic, he still maintained his appearance at the moment before he died, with little change. Compared with Sirius, he looked darker. But it also looks healthier and more energetic.

Because of soaking in the water for a long time, his body was already a little swollen.

Like other Yin corpses, he looked around blankly and walked towards the stone basin in the center of the island, without recognizing who the few people standing in front of him were.

Now he is not the hero who bravely resisted Voldemort, but a corpse guarding Voldemort's soul fragments under the control of magic.

"Regulus!!!" Sirius yelled sternly, the heart-piercing voice echoed in the dark cave.

Before the others could react, he had already rushed over, desperately rushing into the group of corpses, trying to drag Regulus out.

Chapter 216

Just a few seconds before Kreacher found Regulus, four huge monsters conjured by Dumbledore pushed countless infernal corpses into the dark lake, setting off waves of huge waves.

Dumbledore was victorious, and the troll he conjured defeated the Inferi.

But before everyone had time to rejoice, Ivan found that puffs of black smoke suddenly appeared from the body of the troll soaked in the lake water, and the expressionless face also showed fear.

It was the first time he saw the transformed fetish and he would be terrified. He didn't know what happened to them, but it must be the dark magic that Voldemort left in the lake.

In a blink of an eye, they all turned into smoke and disappeared.

As if nothing had happened, the dense and endless ghost corpses floated from the depths of the lake and crawled out continuously.

Dumbledore calmly looked at the Infernal corpse approaching again, not very surprised, as if he had expected this kind of thing to happen, he continued to wave the wand in his hand.

But before he successfully cast the spell, Kreacher's shout suddenly sounded, "Master Regulus, Kreacher has found Master Regulus!"

Hearing his shout, everyone froze and looked in the direction he was pointing.

Only Sirius didn't hesitate, rushed out the moment Kreacher's voice sounded, and rushed towards Regulus' direction.

"Be careful, Sirius, there are too many infernal corpses there, don't go there!" Harry screamed loudly, trying to stop Sirius.

But it didn't work, Sirius was going faster than expected.

"Regulus!!!" He rushed forward, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Regulus, I finally found you, I want to take you home, home..."

Sirius' shrill cry kept repeating, and tears flowed out of his red eyes uncontrollably.

He rushed into the group of corpses regardless, without any consideration for his own safety. The end of his wand emitted streaks of red light at an unimaginable speed, knocking away the corpses that blocked his progress.

Behind him was Kreacher who was also in a frenzy.

"Fight! Fight! For my master, for Master Sirius, for Master Regulus, Kreacher will fight!"

Even amidst the din, his bullfrog-like voice was still audible.

The old house elf burst out with all the vitality in his body, waving the stone he had just picked up from the ground in his hand, and followed Sirius into the corpse group.

Followed by Harry, then Dumbledore, Ivan, and Hermione, their line of defense was completely broken, and they were almost instantly swallowed by the rushing corpses.

Aiwen's heart was beating violently. Just standing on the high ground where the stone basin was placed in the center of the island, watching these hideous dead bodies from a distance was enough to make people shudder.

Now close contact makes him feel even more terrifying.

He couldn't help shivering. Around him, there were all corpses emitting cold air. They had just crawled out of the lake, and their loose, pale skin was covered with cold water droplets. It's uncomfortable and makes people feel sick.

There are so many dead bodies that Ivan can't see the direction of progress at all.

Except for the ghost corpses that are enough to make people have nightmares, Ivan can't see Dumbledore, Sirius, Harry, and Kreacher who are also trapped in the corpses.

The only good thing is that Hermione was always by his side. When he was just swallowed by the corpse, Ivan held her right hand tightly at the last moment and did not let go.

Hermione gasped heavily, and snuggled up to Ivan's side.

There was not even a trace of blood on her pale face, because of fear, her face was as pale as the corpses around her, and her beautiful brown eyes were also opened wide at this time, filled with panic and uneasiness.

Tears kept rolling in Hermione's eyes, but she resisted the flow.

Except for the scream that fell into the corpse group at the beginning, she has been trying not to make any other sounds. She knows that she is fighting now, crying and screaming are weak expressions, except for distracting herself and Ivan. Besides, it is of no use.

Although terrified, Hermione forced herself not to show it.

I don't know why, seeing Aiwen next to her, Hermione felt strangely relieved, no matter how many corpses there were, no matter what she faced, even death, as long as Aiwen was by her side, she would be able to calm down. In the face of it, she must be able to persevere until the end.

The two leaned together and cast various spells on the approaching corpses.

"Use fire, Hermione, use fire magic!" Ivan shouted, "Dumbledore just said that the corpses are afraid of light and warmth, we can attack them with fire!"

Hearing Ivan's reminder, Hermione suddenly remembered what Dumbledore said.

"Blazing flames!" she yelled hastily.

A faint red flame appeared in front of her, and not far away, several ghost corpses who were about to rush over visibly hesitated.

Seeing the flames, they instinctively wanted to run away.

But the flames that Hermione conjured up were too weak, and these ghouls were hesitating. They didn't feel a strong sense of threat, so they might try to make a breakthrough.

Hermione was panting heavily. After using this magic, all the magic power in her body had been exhausted. Seeing that the Infernal Corpse was about to pounce on her in all directions, she knew that she had no way to dodge or dodge.

She closed her eyes resignedly, and held Ivan tightly with her right hand.

But Hermione's eyes opened again immediately, and she was pleasantly surprised to see that Ivan also successfully cast the magic of "blazing flames". surround it.

The ghouls backed away, getting further and further away from the two of them.

"Ivan!" Hermione turned around and hugged Ivan tightly, tears could not help but flow out.

Ivan patted Hermione's shoulder lightly, comforting in a low voice.

At this moment, although in the strange cave, although surrounded by countless Yin corpses, the atmosphere in this circular fire circle has become extremely warm.

Outside the circle of fire, near the shore, Harry was not so leisurely. Just a few seconds ago, he followed Sirius and Kreacher into the horde of infernal corpses.

Seeing Regulus, these two guys went completely insane.

They were like Dumbledore's giant monsters, rampaging through the ghouls. Sirius broke out with incomparably powerful fighting power. Harry couldn't remember how many ghouls he had knocked away trying to stop them.
