Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

"What did you say?" Quirrell didn't hear Dean's words clearly.

"You have all misunderstood. I just don't want you to fall completely. In that case, even your soul may not be saved." Dean showed a devilish smile, "I think your master has received enough this time. Lesson, so what if you already have a careful plan?"

"Oh~ I still don't know how you broke the situation." Quirrell blinked at Dean crazily again.

"It's very simple. The person who appeared in front of you from the beginning was not me, but a puppet disguised as me - you should have seen it just now." Dean shrugged, "You have been looking for me from the beginning. If you set the wrong goal, failure is the inevitable result.”

After he arrived in the Forbidden Forest invisibly, he discovered something was wrong through the Marauder's Map: next to the little black dot labeled Quirrell (Voldemort) there was an interesting name that should never appear at this time.

After appeasing the centaurs, Dean had the idea to become invisible, then took out a statue of Anubis, enlarged it to the size of a normal person, used "Stone Attack" on the statue, and then gave the statue to life again. Putting on the costume of the Mysterious Walker, he appeared in front of Voldemort on his behalf.

This set is a stand-in method that Dean came up with after piecing together the fragments of statues he collected in the pyramid last time into a complete statue.

After Shidun is deployed and cooperates with the phantom spell, sustenance casting, and solidification magic, he can completely let this statue appear in front of others pretending to be the Mysterious Walker instead of him.

The only flaw is that the statue cannot use the inherited skills of the Mysterious Walker and enters a state of mist. Fortunately, neither Voldemort nor Quirrell seems to have noticed this detail.

The mysterious walker disguised as the statue lived up to expectations and fished out Nagini, Voldemort's back-up man.

After Voldemort persisted in removing the last mask from the statue's face, Dean finally released his invisibility, knocked him down from behind, and scared Nagini away.

The situation was under Dean's control from beginning to end. Although Voldemort ambushed Nagini, a secret that Dean did not expect, Dean finally successfully cracked it.

Therefore, whether it was Voldemort's Avada Kedavra or Nagini's subsequent attack, Dean was not worried at all. Anyway, the worst result would be that the statue would be broken into pieces. At worst, he would just spend a little more time putting it back together.

However, Nagini's appearance surprised him. It seemed that Quirrell had not taken action after knowing about Lu Wei's method. He must be thinking of ways to help Voldemort find Nagini.

Sure enough, Voldemort is not that simple. He still does not fully trust Quirrell. He will only really start to take action after he finds a new right-hand man.

"You are too cautious!" Quirrell admired sincerely.

"Actually, you have exposed too many flaws." Dean said, "You haven't taken action against the Philosopher's Stone yet, which is a big flaw."

"I know that the master has never trusted me and thinks that I am not capable." Quirrell said helplessly with a wry smile.

"So you have been trying to find Nagini recently?" Dean confirmed.

"Yes. Although the master was basically dormant some time ago, he gave me some clues to find Nagini. It took me a lot of time to find it." Quirrell said fearfully.

He did not inform the Mystic Walker of this matter, and the other party could use this as a reason to refuse to continue to help him.

"I guess your rate of decline improved after Nagini appeared?" Dean asked.

"Yes, in fact, after I decided to follow your advice and not drink the blood of unicorns, the master told me that only by finding Nagini would I have a chance of survival." Quirrell said.

Dean wasn't angry at Quirrell's attempt to have both sides.

He knew that even if Quirrell's memory isolation spell was perfect, it would be impossible for their secret agreement to completely deceive Voldemort.

In this situation, even if it were Dean, he could only choose to hide the idea of ​​trying to escape Voldemort's control as a top secret, and all other information could be thrown out to dispel Voldemort's vigilance in order to keep this secret.

"Let me guess again, is your master no longer possessing you?" Dean asked.

Quirrell's eyes widened in disbelief: "How do you know?"

"It's very simple. Your master's performance just now was really poor. If he only had that level, how could he become the new generation of Dark Lord?" Dean curled his lips. The "Voldemort" just now was like a clown.

Another reason is that Voldemort and Nagini have already reached the level of empathy, and he doesn't need to shout out when he orders Nagini to act.

So from the beginning, Dean concluded that it was not the real Voldemort, but Quirrell who was controlled by the Imperius Curse.

"I've warned the master a long time ago, but he doesn't trust me..." Quirrell's expression was very complicated, and he couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or happy.

"So he transferred his soul to Nagini?" Dean asked softly.

"Nagini is stronger..." Quirrell said emotionally. No matter what, he could not change the fact that he was Voldemort's abandoned son.

"Maybe you should celebrate. After he left on his own initiative, you were free~" Dean said half-jokingly.

"It's not that simple at all." Quirrell said desperately, "I can feel that he must have done something to me when he left. He can control me again at any time, and my weakness is still continuing."

"That's right. After all, he won't give up easily before he gets the Philosopher's Stone." Dean said thoughtfully.

Giving up easily before trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone is definitely not Voldemort's style. Now he has transferred his soul to Nagini. Not only is Nagini stronger and safer to possess, but also to stay away from Dumbledore. eyes, looking for opportunities to steal the magic stone.

With Voldemort's shrewdness, he must have noticed that Dumbledore was suspicious of Quirrell.

Quirrell has not completely lost his use value, but as he said himself, the sequelae of Voldemort's possession still exist, and he continues to weaken.

Voldemort's departure may have allowed Quirrell to hold on for a few more days. Once there was an opportunity to steal the Sorcerer's Stone, Voldemort would immediately re-attach him and start taking action.

On the one hand, this opportunity depends on whether Voldemort can use other men to create it, and on the other hand, it depends on when Dumbledore is prepared to give him this opportunity.

If everything goes according to the original work, in order to give Harry as much time as possible to grow up, Dumbledore chose the end of the semester...

Dean is really torn. If he wants to save Quirrell, now is the best chance, but that will definitely destroy Dumbledore's savior plan. How should he choose?
