[HP] Immortality

After Grindelwald successfully escaped from the conspiracy of the Magical Congress of America, he and his followers established a prison named Nurmengard in Austria to detain those who opposed him, but it obviously belonged to them. base camp.

The real destination of this trip was Nurmengard, and the trip to Paris was nothing more than a plan discussed in advance by Dumbledore and Colein to wipe out that terrorist organization.

It was almost noon when I arrived in Nurmengard, so naturally I used the Portkey to teleport again. Although I had experienced it once, Qingyao still had a hard time getting used to it. Hungry, she has no appetite even after being tormented by this.

Although this kind of reaction is normal and has happened once, Dumbledore specially brought some water to the girl, and it can be somewhat relieved. This place is not like Paris, and there are no bustling commercial streets nearby.

Riddle probably guessed that she would feel unwell, but he didn't expect the reaction to be so serious. He took the pot of water and fed her some while giving the little person some comfort. You Qi saw that she was still full of energy this morning. However, within a few seconds, this ugly expression appeared, and he couldn't help feeling even more displeased with the owner of the building not far away.

After resting for a while, she didn't continue to set off until Qingyao recovered.

To accurately describe that building, it should be a tower. According to Dumbledore's explanation, Nurmengard has anti-apparition spells and many defensive spells to resist some offensive magic. Of course, there are also guards. The "criminals" were held.

But along the way, none of Grindelwald's followers came to intercept them. There were neither open guns nor hidden arrows, and there was not even a little trouble. This tower far away from people seemed to be abandoned.

Until arriving at the entrance of Nurmengard, Qing Yao, who was able to see this solid fortress from a close distance, only felt uncomfortable. Fortunately, today's weather is good, and the sun is still there, and the place is still so cold and gloomy, which is unreasonably life-threatening. fear.

Especially the "For The Greater Good" engraved on the top (for the greater good), she remembered that this was the goal that Dumbledore once said they had reached a consensus on. Great by these men.

But the next moment, the closed door opened automatically as if consciously, as if to welcome their arrival, and needless to say, the inside was pitch black, like another world.

This scene gradually overlapped with the escaped room in the dream. Even though it was a dream, the pain was real. Qing Yao couldn't help leaning towards the person next to her, but she happened to be pulled into his arms, and then heard a whisper.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

This can be regarded as completely pacifying her negative emotions and this restless heart. She said "um" softly before sticking to him, but at the same time she was very glad that he came this time.

But after only a few seconds, a deep male voice came from inside the door, "Letting guests wait at the door is not Nurmengard's way of hospitality. Come in, everyone."

Qing Yao immediately recognized the voice from the man in the dream who claimed to be Grindelwald, but compared to her, Dumbledore, who was silent for a long time at the far end, seemed to be more abnormal. He didn't move as if he hesitated until another reminder .

"Professor Dumbledore, are you afraid, or it should be too late for us to leave now, even if the other party is a notorious international wanted criminal, but I believe no one will blame you, after all... other people can't arrest Isn't this criminal?"

And Dumbledore seemed to have finished thinking about it, and immediately put on a smile and said, "Thank you for your concern, Tom. You reminded me of the essence of this trip. Let's go, Miss Qing still looks a little uncomfortable. She sat down and rested."

After finishing speaking, Dumbledore walked in first, and as he walked a short distance, lights on both sides would light up to illuminate the way forward.

Only then did Riddle wait for his little girlfriend to follow, but the door closed quickly, like a trap, in order to tell them that they had come in so they couldn't get out.

The space inside is obviously very large, and it is not completely dark. At least after passing through the hall, everything suddenly becomes clear. On the soft-looking sofas on the right side, there is already a well-dressed man pouring black tea.

Even though the man looks a little old, he is still full of energy. Even if the appearance is getting old, he can still see the absolute handsomeness of his youth, and the simple gesture of pouring tea also reveals an elegant and unique charm from the bottom of his bones , and these small details, she didn't pay attention to them in her dream.

No one spoke for a while, and the sound of pouring water seemed particularly abrupt in the silence.

Until, Grindelwald put down the teapot and pointed to the empty sofa, "Miss Qing and this Mr. Riddle might as well sit down and rest first, the feeling of apparating is really not very good, isn't it?"

"Thank you, Mr. Grindelwald."

After responding at the right time, Riddle took the villain beside him to the empty seat and sat down, but he didn't intend to move the teacup on the table. He just hugged his little girlfriend, and then whispered something in her ear.

Seeing this, Grindelwald didn't care about the young couple who seemed to be getting bored, but turned to the man who was still standing and quickly got up, smiling generously, "Long time no see... Albus, Hogg Woz's career as a professor doesn't seem to be very good, I hope you haven't forgotten how many great plans we have discussed together day and night."

As if reminiscing, Dumbledore immediately retorted, "Of course, I haven't forgotten, Gellert, but it was a mistake, we all know the nature of that plan is disgraceful, and even after all these years, you still have nothing Change, I thought you would at least feel guilty and regretful, but unfortunately, I was wrong."

But Grindelwald was extremely calm, "If you mean your poor sister, I'm sorry, but we were all there that day, weren't we, and your brother, it seems too bad to attribute the cause of her unfortunate death to me." Fair enough to know who started it, who started it, we were all involved, Albus, we all had blood on our hands, none of the three of us were innocent."

Although the other party expressed regret, Dumbledore certainly understood that he didn't care about a human life, especially if the dead person was still a mentally ill patient.

"I have never denied my fault, Gellert, and even now I am confessing every night. I regret that I didn't see your true purpose clearly at first, and became the murderer who indirectly killed Ariana."

But Grindelwald was obviously a little impatient. He suddenly took out a wand and didn't mean to use it, "Albus, that little girl has been dead for decades. I said earlier that your younger brother and sister will become our wand." Obstacles to succeeding in great goals, you didn't deny that at the time, did you? You even showed the same annoyance didn't you? To your poor psychotic sister!

Look, Albus, I have been following the plan we made to realize it step by step, to find the Deathly Hallows, to gain the power of the Lord of Death, to overthrow the unfair "Secrecy Act", and to lead the powerful wizards in a benevolent way To rule the world, including those weak No-Majs, if you had chosen to leave with me, maybe your poor sister is still alive now, and you don't even have to hide. "

This seemed to annoy Dumbledore thoroughly, and he immediately interrupted, "But your goal is not what you described, is it? You expose the wizarding world through terrorist attacks, and you don't care about the life and death of Muggles and ordinary wizards at all!

The operation of the "Secrecy Act" allows wizards to live in peace, and your idea is nothing more than to rule the world, and use the most extreme methods to force them to submit by threatening violence.

You don't choose mercy, Gellert, these are just your excuses for the unforgivable atrocities you have committed!You are doomed, none of this should have happened! "

Compared with the tense situation here, Riddle, who was watching the show on the other side, had a thorough understanding of the cause and effect. Although he could guess that there was a high probability that these two people had a close relationship, he didn't want to have such a history in it, so he watched it again. Looking at this not-so-simple professor of transfiguration, interest surged in his dark eyes.

After staying for a while, he turned to the villain beside him and whispered, "Honey, it's time to interrupt them, if it continues, it may turn into a duel."

But then he posted it closer, "Use your identity."

After being reminded like this, Qing Yao nodded obediently, then silently recited the mantra and only raised her hand, the magic wand in Grindelwald's hand came to her at once, and her move also successfully attracted the attention of the two opposite people.

"Sorry to bother you, it's just that I promised Professor Dumbledore to help him, and I also have some things to ask you, sir, but as you said, if the world should be ruled by the strong, should the wise give me Woolen cloth?"

With Riddle around, Qingyao was not afraid. She got up and slowly came to the two of them to play with the extra wand in her hand, then lowered her head and stroked the wand and continued unhurriedly.

"I heard that the Muggles here believe in God. I don't know God but only God. According to what my sisters said, mortals will feel awe and worship God when they see God, because their weakness is not enough to support them to fight against God. Then , I wonder what will happen to Mr. Grindelwald? When facing a more powerful god?"

These words obviously aroused his interest. He was not in a hurry to get back his wand but instead taunted, "So Miss Qing wants to say that she is a god? Does this strange attire also represent the attire of a god?"

However, Qing Yao suddenly said, "This is... Fairy, there are so many kinds of wood used to make wands."

After sighing, she continued, "Grandpa Xuandu told me not to lie, what I said is naturally true, and besides, there's no need to admit it, I am a god."

As soon as her voice fell, Riddle followed up, "Mr. Grindelwald believes that the world should be ruled by powerful wizards and witches. It is undeniable that there is a certain truth, but Yao is above us. According to this logic, whether It should be her instead."

Unexpectedly, this little guy immediately changed his cold appearance just now, turned around and got into his arms coquettishly, "I don't want it! I don't like war."

Riddle naturally embraced her, and seeing her childish appearance, he continued to reason seriously, "But judging from the results of Mr. Grindelwald's plan, Yao must be that person, right, they are not as strong as you .”

"But...but... I think Mr. Grindelwald doesn't want others to interfere at all. He looks so fierce. Is it because I took his wand? Then I'll just go back."

As she said that, the wand in her hand flew to Grindelwald and automatically stuffed it into his hand before finishing.

Although this seems to be very simple, only Qingyao knows how strong the other party is. She has used more than half of her mana to break through the protection spells on him and successfully get the magic wand. She would not have been in her prime She is afraid, but now she has to think about trying not to anger him.

Unexpectedly, Grindelwald suddenly applauded. He didn't seem to care about the ironic episode of singing a double reed just now, but was very happy.

"Very good, Miss Qing's power is indeed stronger than I expected. This is an "Old Wand" that I copied. If Miss is interested in this, I very much welcome you to stay here and study with me. Of course Regarding your proposal, as long as Miss Qing is willing to join my team, I am willing to share the position of leader with you."

But Qingyao was a little puzzled, "Isn't the magic wand a kind of carrier for wizards to use magic? It also unconsciously and automatically uses magic spells, so what's there to study?"

Among the four people present, this little guy was the only one who didn't understand anything. Riddle pinched her little face full of doubts helplessly before explaining, "It is said that the Elder Wand is a stick that can make its master invincible in battle. An invincible wand, the wielder can easily cast powerful spells."

The result made her even more puzzled, "Is this magic wand so magical? Could it be that Tom can use the magic that the current wand can't use, and replace it with the old wand? Whether the magic that can be cast is powerful or not should not depend on the caster." Is it itself? Besides, it doesn’t mean that the wand chooses its owner, only the one that suits you is the best?”

Riddle, who wanted to continue explaining, was snatched by Grindelwald, "Yes, this is the magic of the Elder Wand, if Miss Qing is interested, why not stay and study with me, I believe we will have a good time Small results."

However, Riddle was very annoyed by the abduction between the lines, but he just smiled politely, "Professor Dumbledore, it seems that our trip does not come here to study wands."

Dumbledore, who had calmed down, nodded, "Indeed, Gellert, maybe you still won't believe it, but as Miss Qing said, she does not belong to this world, and what she uses is not magic, but a kind of magic. More advanced and mysterious spells.

I brought her here not to threaten you, nor to join forces to defeat you. I just gave you an advice from the standpoint of our former friends, just to make my advice more convincing.

Your plan will not succeed, even if one day you rule the world with this, there will be rebels, your nature cannot convince everyone, wizards and muggles should live in their own societies, even if you do , and no one would be happy to be ruled and oppressed. It seems that only violence and intimidation are the fastest at this time.

It is not the last century now, it will only make Muggles or ordinary wizards think it is a kind of exploitation, which will create greater hidden dangers, and the violence will only intensify. The chapters of human history are originally forged by blood, the so-called greater Your interests are nothing more than an excuse you make for your own selfish desires.

Maybe you don't understand and continue to go your own way, then the next time we meet may be the time to completely break up. "

After finishing speaking, Dumbledore signaled to Riddle and Qing Yao to leave, but the three were stopped when they came to the door.

"Albus, you have changed a lot. You have become the same group of people we once hated, but you reminded me that only the strong can be convincing. If I can't, then just change to another one."

As his words fell, a ray of light suddenly struck, pointing directly at Qingyao, but Dumbledore defended him in time and immediately said "Go away".

Qingyao realized the seriousness of the matter, and wanted to get close to Dumbledore but couldn't get close, so she had to use spells and Riddle to teleport out of Nurmengard, but the outside was surrounded by wizards holding wands , the number is at least twenty or thirty.

It seems that this is really a grand banquet.
