Pandaren Professor at Hogwarts

Lanfeng followed Grindelwald into the room and sat down. Grindelwald thoughtfully enlarged the seat for Lanfeng.

"To be honest, I have known about you for a long time, and I have also checked your information. It is very rich, but it is not very positive." Lanfeng took the tea cup and said to Grindelwald.

"I think those are rewards for me, but why are you investigating me? I am just a loser from the old era. The only thing I am stronger than others is probably not attractive in your eyes. "Grindelwald has no regrets about his past and does not take other people's comments seriously.

"You know why, don't you?" Lan Feng took a sip of hot coffee and gritted his teeth in pain.

Grindelwald was very amused when he saw this. He took some sugar from the closet and handed it to Lan Feng: "I thought Albus wouldn't mention me in front of outsiders." He was in a very happy mood, which seemed to be because Dumbledore was with Lan Feng. Feng mentioned him before, which made him feel very happy.

Lanfeng shook his head: "No, he never mentioned you to me. He only mentioned your name for the first time just now."

Lan Feng paused for a moment, because he found the awkward look on the face of the first-generation Dark Lord in front of him very interesting. Seeing Grindelwald looking at him, Lan Feng continued: "Although he has never mentioned you, but there is such a thing as feelings. It can't be hidden. There are various signs that there is always someone in Dumbledore's heart, and it is not difficult to associate this person with you, isn't it?"

Grindelwald's face turned pale, and it was clear that what Lanfeng told him was not satisfactory to him.But what more could he ask for?

He didn't want to continue talking about Dumbledore, so he changed the topic: "Can you give me that piece of my soul? I'm a little distracted right now, and this feeling is not very good."

After hearing this, Lanfeng pulled out the branch, took out the soul stored in it, and threw it to Grindelwald: "You cut the soul very neatly, you can tell that you are an expert at first glance!" Lanfeng praised, although this compliment was a bit creepy.

Grindelwald, who stuffed his soul from his temple, replied: "You should know if you checked my information, I don't even have a diploma from a magic school, just because I did these things in school, but that's not right. I."

Not only for himself, but also for his classmates. It was really exciting to cut the souls of his classmates while he was in school. He could compete with his junior, Voldemort, who cut his own soul for fun.

"Have you discussed it with those who practice black magic? Do you have to do something at school?"

"What are you talking about?" After asking, Grindelwald suddenly realized, "Voldemort? That idiot who knows magic?"

Lanfeng thought Grindelwald's description was funny, but when he thought about it carefully, he thought there was something wrong: "After all, he is your junior, so you evaluate him like this?"

Grindelwald said with disdain: "Don't put him together with me, he doesn't deserve it! How can a tool used by others be compared with me?"

"Are you different?" Lan Feng asked.

If anyone else had asked this, Grindelwald might have already taken action, but this time, Grindelwald chose to explain: "What I pursue is revolution and bringing a better situation to the magical world!"

After hearing this, Lanfeng thought about it, and then repeated a passage recorded by Grindelwald: "That law makes us like rats surrendering to the sewer! That law requires us to hide our true selves! That law requires us to hide our true selves! Let the people under its jurisdiction cower in fear, lest our identities be exposed! Let me ask you, Mr. Chairman - let me ask you - who is this law intended to protect? Is it us? Or is it them? I refuse to succumb to it anymore Under it.”

Grindelwald obviously remembered saying this, and this was the idea he once insisted on: "The fact is that we wizards have been hiding in the world, being restrained, so-called protected, trying to avoid those Muggles, Is it fair?"

Lanfeng thought for a while, and it was indeed unfair, but he didn't want to talk to Grindelwald about this yet. He repeated some descriptions about Grindelwald: "Grindelwald has great power and hopes to use this power. Lead a revolution in the wizarding world to overthrow the International Statute of Secrecy and establish a benevolent new global order led by wise and powerful wizards and witches."

This is the description of Grindelwald's revolutionary direction in most records. To be honest, when Lanfeng saw these words, he even thought that Mr. Grindelwald lived in the Middle Ages, when all wizards became nobles and the ruling class, and all Ma The melon serves the wizard and becomes his vassal. The order of this world depends on the wizard's self-cultivation and his benevolence.

"You are reversing the course of history!"

He did not refute Lan Feng's criticism, because he himself had abandoned these idealistic ideas: "I am too idealistic, I admit it, but wizards should never be like this! As long as we exist in the world, we Not a medieval witch!”

Grindelwald's thoughts have changed, Lanfeng can tell, but there must be some reason for a person's change of thoughts, is it because of time?Or was it because he lost the battle with Dumbledore?Neither is possible.

This made Lan Feng suddenly think of something: "What happened in [-]?"

"I was defeated by Dumbledore!" Grindelwald smiled very happily.

"No!" Lan Feng immediately denied, "With the Elder Wand, you will not lose to Dumbledore. You did it on purpose. Although I had long thought you did it on purpose, I always thought it was because of love, but now that I think about it, , neither of you will put your feelings above your career, so your ideas changed before the duel with Dumbledore, why?!"

Grindelwald took a sip of coffee and did not answer the question immediately. Instead, he praised Lanfeng: "You are very wise. No one links this failure to factors other than strength. You are the first."

"I am the second one. Dumbledore naturally knows it, but he doesn't want to think about it deeply."

"Yes, he must be very reluctant to think of me." Grindelwald laughed at himself, and then began to talk about what happened that year:

"I have always believed that powerful wizards should become leaders, so I wanted to establish a new order. But what happened in the Muggle world that year made me change my mind."

What's going on in the muggle world?[-]?World War II?No!

"Atomic bomb?!"

"Yes, yes, but people at that time preferred to call them little boys and fat men. Maybe this would make them feel less guilty. No matter how powerful a wizard is, there is an upper limit. The upper limit of this era is me and Dumbledore. Lido." Grindelwald was very confident when he said these two names, "But none of us can destroy this world. We don't have this ability, but Muggles can. Without magic, they have more power than wizards. This was the first impact on my philosophy, and this time it was devastating.”

Lanfeng understood that when Grindelwald imagined that the ruled class had the power to resist the ruling class, his idealism lost its meaning.

"So you deliberately lost to Dumbledore just to stop your meaningless revolution?"

Grindelwald shrugged: "On the one hand, on the other hand, I want to bring Dumbledore's reputation to its peak through a world-famous battle to help him realize his ideals."

"His ideal? To change the entire wizarding world by educating the next generation? You should know that he did a very poor job and even cultivated a scourge, although it was not his intention."

Grindelwald sighed: "I figured it out later. He can't accomplish anything like this. He can't change anything by giving up his pursuit of power. It's all my fault!"

"Blame you?"

"Dumbledore had many extraordinary qualities, and he was also a very powerful man. He would appear to be very pragmatic, and would sometimes remain silent or even make up lies to keep secrets, even though some people around him had proven themselves to be worthy of his trust. of.

As a young boy, he spent a lot of energy discussing with me and jointly planning to rule the Muggles. During this period, he neglected his sick sister, Ariana. "

Speaking of Ariana, Grindelwald looked as pained as Dumbledore, but he quickly left the topic.

"As a result, he began to believe that his greatest flaw was his desire for power, and that those best suited to take over power were often those who did not pursue it. So Dumbledore abandoned the fantasy of changing the wizarding world. Let He refused any position that would have given him great power and insisted on remaining at Hogwarts as Headmaster."

After talking freely, Grindelwald concluded: "He was not a cruel person, but he was too far-sighted at the time and thought that he was doing it for the greater good and was a choice that was beneficial to more people, even though this choice had profound consequences. It deeply hurts those around me.”

After listening to Grindelwald's views on Dumbledore, Lanfeng felt that Grindelwald was very right. Dumbledore's character was like this: ruthlessly taking advantage of Severus Snape's influence on Lily Evans. Emotions; he also avoided contact with Harry Potter for a long time, fearing that Voldemort would learn about his relationship with Harry through his connection with Harry, and use this against himself.

Although Dumbledore didn't say it, Lanfeng could guess that ever since he learned that Harry had become Voldemort's Horcrux, he had been avoiding Harry and had thrown Harry to him.

but......

"Dumbledore is also changing, just like you." Lanfeng excused Dumbledore.

Grindelwald nodded in agreement: "He has changed. If it was him before, he would never come to me. But today he came to me, and I know he has changed. That's why I want to invite you." Reason for coming here.”

The conversation between the two took a long time to come back, but both sides understood a lot.

Lan Feng decided to get back to business: "How much do you know about Horcruxes? Let's talk about it."

Grindelwald also straightened up and said: "The very inferior method of immortality is something I don't want to study, so I can't say I know much about it, but I still know something about it in principle. This method of splitting souls through killing originated from The principle of the Cruciatus Curse is to sting the soul, and when the sting deepens, it can tear the soul apart, leading to death. The principle of the Horcrux is to separate the death of the body from the tear of the soul, and torture with the Cruciatus Curse Oneself, tear one's own soul apart, and then use some method to transfer the physical death to other people, so that one's own soul can be divided, and the number of souls divided in this way is limited, and eight parts is the upper limit. Therefore, if there are at most eight Horcruxes, they cannot be cut."

Seven Horcruxes, I would say, in addition to the notebook and Harry, there are up to five Horcruxes.

Lan Feng continued to ask: "What about the method of resurrection?"

"I don't know. If I know the method, you should know who is the first to be resurrected. However, I do have some ideas on how to find Horcruxes, but they still need to be confirmed."

Lan Feng stood up and patted himself: "Then let's go back to Hogwarts with me."

Grindelwald was a little stunned. He never expected that Lanfeng wanted to take him away: "I am a prisoner. Do you want to rob the prison?"

"If you don't want people to know you're gone, people won't know."

"Dumbledore won't accept me leaving here."

"He has been afraid to see you because you know the truth about Ariana's death, do you know that?"

"I don't know. The situation was very chaotic at the time, and I don't know whose spell hit him. But I am suspicious."

"But he came to see you today, didn't he? It means he has given up."

"cocoa..."

"Don't you want to take a look at another way for wizards and Muggles to get along?" Lan Feng decided to step up the game.

"Another model of getting along?" Grindelwald expressed confusion. "I have been to many places when I was young, including Europe, America, and Asia. No place can escape this pattern."

"What about since you lived in this tower? How much do you know about the changes in the world? Don't tell me you only read things related to Dumbledore!"

Grindelwald was speechless for a moment, because he was rightly told by Lan Feng. Although he had also been paying attention to things in the magical world in recent years, he mostly only looked at the parts about Dumbledore. Because he had lost his doctrine, he only watched the part about Dumbledore in his life. That left Dumbledore.

"I happen to be going there for Christmas, you come with me and take a look."

"There?"

"China!"

......

Grindelwald finally left with Lanfeng, but he didn't want to face Dumbledore now, and he wanted to see the new situation Lanfeng talked about, so Lanfeng placed him in Longbottom Castle, let him stay here for a few days, and then take him to China.

After that, Lanfeng returned to Hogwarts on his own.

At the professor's chair, Dumbledore found that Lan Feng had appeared at the treatment point in the audience, but did not sense anyone else entering the Hogwarts area. He was slightly disappointed, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to be looking forward to it. But also a little scared.
