Hogwarts Card System - Chapter 476

c453 This child cannot be kept

The sky and the earth were so white that one could not even tell the difference between east, west and north.

Everything is a vast expanse of white, you can’t see anything from a distance, and you can’t see anything close, giving people a feeling of being extremely confused and unable to make a choice.

Neville looked around confusedly, wondering: “Am I not dead?”

He still remembered how Bella’s extremely vicious killing curse hit his chest. For a moment, his life force seemed to be drained, and his soul began to rise and leave the body.

The reason why Neville faced these people alone was to use the hands of Death Eaters to end his own life and take away Voldemort’s last Horcrux.

Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to take away Bella, a crazy woman with many sins and bloody hands.

But Bella was really cunning and ruthless. After discovering that Neville was unexpectedly strong and excellent in defense, she even chose to sacrifice one of her companions – while Neville was attacking a Death Eater, A two-shot curse first opened a big hole in his companion, and then a green light penetrated it and hit Neville.

Bella was forced to use this method because Neville had killed several others before.

“I shouldn’t be considered a loss, right?” He lowered his head and looked at his hands. The wand was not there, but he was wearing clothes, which turned out to be the basic Hogwarts school uniform robe.

“So, I am dead, right? Am I in a soul state now?” Neville was unclear about his current situation.

But a voice suddenly sounded: “Yes, Longbottom, you are dead. This should be a transit point for the soul of a newly deceased person.”

“Who?!” Neville was startled and looked around warily, but didn’t see anyone.

That voice was a female voice. It was very strange and I had never heard it before. Who was it?

At this time, Neville suddenly felt something on his chest. He quickly reached out and took it out, and found that it was a small bead.

This is the amulet Ted gave himself before to keep close to his body. How did you bring it here?

If Neville went to China, he would know that there is a custom there, which is to bring cover money and dog biscuits to the deceased!

“Is that you talking?” Neville asked.

The little bead suddenly trembled, and then turned into a very thin, curly green snake.

Neville was startled, but he resisted subconsciously throwing it away.

“Hello, Neville Longbottom.” The little snake spat out a letter and spoke, “I am sent by Ted to help you. My name is Nagini.”

Nagini? !

Neville knew the name, he had heard Hermione talk about this woman’s pitiful experience. It is said that she is now finding herself in the game. Why did he turn into a snake and appear here?

“You, are you dead too?” Neville asked.

Nagini coiled around one of his fingers, “I’m not dead, it should be considered an out-of-body experience. After all, my body has turned into a snake, and it’s not suitable for my soul to return yet. However, I have recovered it.” lose one’s own humanity and memory.”

Neville nodded, feeling confused. Although he was very good at breathing methods, holy light magic, herbal cultivation, and magic body fighting, he was still clueless in other areas.

For example, in the shadow field that Jerry studied, Ron’s magic mechanics, machine soul joy, etc. were completely incomprehensible.

The only thing that overlaps with my friend’s research field may be Harley’s magical condensation and manifestation magic.

This soul and human nature sounds very complicated at first glance. Like Ted’s field of study.

“You said Ted asked you to help me, what’s going on?” Neville asked.

“You are dead now.” Nagini emphasized again.

Neville nodded: I understand, can you say something else? Keep poking at my wounds?

There was no expression on Nagini’s snake face, but Neville always felt like she was smiling.

Nagini: “But don’t worry, although you are dead, you are not dead yet.”

“The amulet Ted gave you is a soul-protecting amulet. Although the killing curse caused your soul to leave the body, your soul was not harmed because of the protection of the amulet. As long as you find a way to leave here, You can be reborn!”

“Leave here? How to leave here?” Neville asked quickly.

Who wants to die if he can live?

My friends, my classmates, my Ginny are still waiting for me!

Nagini was slightly proud: “That’s why Ted asked me to help you, because I have been here before in the process of finding myself, so I have experience. So I’m here to help you!”

“What are we going to do?” Neville was impatient.

Nagini: “First, we have to take action.”

“Move?”

“Yes, let’s go.”

“Where to go?”

“Go in any direction. It’s definitely not possible to stay where you are. And there is no concept of direction here. As long as you start walking, you will always get there. Let’s go.”

“Okay!” Neville randomly picked a direction and began to stride forward. While observing, he communicated with Nagini and asked her about her last experience here.

…

Even as Neville was undergoing his final “trial”, the battle in reality did not stop.

It can even be said to be aggravated!

Because this time, although the Ministry of Magic’s hold on Hogsmeade was broken, the entire village was occupied. So now in the entire British wizarding world, Hogwarts is the only place that has not been captured.

However, the casualties this time were really huge.

And it was the kind where real Death Eaters suffered heavy casualties, something that had never happened in previous battles.

Those living dead wizards, monster cannon fodder, and even those magical races who took refuge will die. But the Death Eaters are Voldemort’s direct subordinates after all. Not to mention their weakening in strength, they can’t live with it in terms of face!

In particular, although the Ministry of Magic failed and retreated to the school, the losses were not significant, but they suffered huge casualties on their own side.

The Death Eaters feel a little guilty if they want to brag about their tragic victory.

Because of the defeat in this battle, even Bella was scolded several times by Voldemort.

In his opinion, with these few rotten garlics, you actually achieved such a battle-loss ratio? What a waste!

Even if I don’t have any expectations for you, you will all be disappointed, right? !

However, after Bella said that she had killed the golden boy Neville Longbottom, Voldemort’s attitude obviously improved a lot.

Although he still said something like: I should deal with that boy myself, you made me lose a lot of fun and so on.

But it’s just a matter of speaking out against the integrity of the body.

The death of such an old enemy still made him elated.

Therefore, the matter of casualties has passed.

However, the Dark Lord was still a little curious, how could he cause so many casualties?

After all, the traditional wizard magic system does not have particularly lethal power, or magic with a large range and wide impact. Why did those losers from the Ministry of Magic kill so many of my people?

Even 50,000 pigs could not be caught in three days!

So, he examined the memory of a surviving Death Eater.

At this glance, Ted was seen floating in the sky like a god and demon, with a bright ball of light behind him, and thunder and lightning flowing in his hands. Thunder and lightning fell from the sky like rain, killing Death Eaters and Death Eaters one after another. monster.

The whole scene was like divine punishment!

After watching this scene, Voldemort deeply felt the bone-deep fear of his Death Eaters and remained silent for a long time.

It was really a sight without saying a word.

Because of Ted’s behavior at that time, what should I say? Bluffing! How bluffing!

It’s a bit, a bit like Payne’s “a bag of rice carrying several buildings” that makes Konoha Village feel pain.

What a supermodel!

At that time, Voldemort had an impulse in his heart – kill him!

This boy is only 17 years old, but he has already reached the peak of being a wizard. In a few years, he will get a glimpse of the legendary realm. Then it will be Dumbledore again!

Without further ado, no more Grindelwald can come out to interfere with me!

Voldemort: This child is so terrifying that we must not keep him!

The Death Eaters and the peripheral dark wizards only knew that the crazy woman Bella was really crazy, and they just ignored her when she got mad.

But they didn’t expect that Bella would be nothing compared to Voldemort.

How could Bella compare to Voldemort when he went crazy?

In the battle just now, seven to eight hundred wizards passed by, but only more than a hundred and less than two hundred came back alive. Three thousand undead souls and six to seven thousand cannon fodder monsters were wiped out.

As a result, Voldemort only let everyone rest for one night, and the next day he notified all his subordinates in Britain and surrounding areas, and they all gathered together to complete the battle!

This time the Dark Lord will take action himself!

Good guy, I just managed to survive a battle, I had nightmares all night, and I have to go to the battlefield again the next day?

If I had known today, I might as well have been a savage in the mountains and forests!

I am here to enjoy the glory, wealth and wanton behavior. Didn’t he come here to die?

But it’s too late to say anything now. If you bear the Dark Mark, you will be the slave and servant of the Dark Lord.

If you disobey or make the Dark Lord angry, he will let you know that some things are worse than death.

In just a few hours, Voldemort had gathered almost all the available manpower here.

There are probably more than 400 to 500 wizards, only over a thousand monsters, only 200 above level 10, and only thirty or forty above level 14.

This has left Germany and several surrounding countries empty. Almost all the Death Eater forces gathered.

But if the Dark Lord takes action himself, it should be no big deal.

Just follow the flag and shout. Let’s mix~

So, on Christmas Eve, December 24, Voldemort personally led his troops north and settled in the somewhat damaged Hogsmeade village.

“Send an ultimatum to Hogwarts and ask them to hand over Bones, Epiphany and others. The Dark Lord will forget the blame and will be my good servant from now on. Otherwise, if the war starts tomorrow, the British wizarding world may be wiped out. !”

Voldemort’s ultimatum was delivered by Bella herself.

Before dinner in the afternoon, Bella’s sharp voice with a bit of nervousness resounded like rolling thunder throughout the area around Hogwarts, confessing Voldemort’s “mercy”.

He also added a lot of content to compliment Voldemort and humiliate the Ministry of Magic.

At this time, the school was already full of people.

Even the edge of the Black Lake and the Quidditch pitch were full of tents.

Everyone is busy preparing for the next battle.

Regarding the fall of Hogsmeade, some people feel pessimistic, while others feel that the fight was pretty good. After all, the opponent suffered heavy casualties, and their own side was much lighter in comparison.

Besides, Hogwarts is a thousand-year-old magic school, and its defense is definitely no worse than the temporarily reinforced Hogsmeade.

Can the Death Eaters accept such a loss?

But speaking of it, Ted’s look at mastering thunder and lightning is so cool!

After the night attack, Ted’s image in everyone’s minds is now different.

Now even the directors and supervisors of the Ministry of Magic are extremely polite when they see Ted.

The other party is already an existence that I can’t imagine!

However, everyone knows that there is a mysterious person on the other side who cannot be named. That is the real devil!

As soon as Bella’s voice sounded, everyone remembered the fear of being dominated by the Dark Lord again.

In a short period of time, people were panicked and their morale was -20!

There were also several undercover Death Eaters who retreated to the school with them. At this time, they felt that it was a God-given opportunity. It was time to show their loyalty to the Dark Lord and make meritorious deeds!

Just secretly tell this person, tell that person, how the battle is not optimistic, how terrifying and powerful the Dark Lord is, and that we will all be killed in the end!

Since You-Know-Who only demands the handing over of Ted and Secretary Bones, why don’t we…right?

It’s better to just die for the two of them than for us to die together, right?

Why should we be buried with them? !

Besides, the Dark Lord didn’t say he would kill them, so maybe he didn’t have to die? !

However, just over an hour later, a team of Aurors, led by Mad Eye Moody, began to arrest those who had shaken the morale of the military.

After all, during the battle in the previous two days, someone had destroyed the defensive formation internally, otherwise Hogsmeade might not have been lost.

There have been people investigating this matter for the past two days, and there are still people who dare to jump out!

Originally, Mad-Eye Moody was no longer the Auror instructor of the Ministry of Magic and should not have led the Aurors. However, the iron-blooded hawk Scrimgeour died heroically in the Battle of Hogsmeade. Now there is no one in the school better than Moody. Dee gained more authority among the Aurors.

At dawn the next day, Voldemort walked out of his temporary laboratory. He was barefoot and his skin was as white as if he had been dead for three days. He was simply dressed in a black robe, as if he was wearing nothing underneath, highlighting his ease. .

“It seems that the other party has not chosen to accept my kindness?” he asked.

A Death Eater on the side said: “Master, they caught a few of our undercover agents that we had arranged before.”

Bella raised the silver hand made by Voldemort for her, “Master, let me go! I will lead people to break up Hogwarts and capture those people to sacrifice to the master!”

Voldemort glanced at her: Stop bragging!

But at this moment, a Death Eater suddenly broke in: “No, it’s not good, Master. G-Gringotts was attacked…”

Gringotts is under attack!

…

Although there was a chaotic few days just after the Ministry of Magic was captured, many Death Eaters were trying to pry the treasure house in Gringotts, but not many succeeded.

Besides, Gringotts also has a long history and a profound foundation.

Just the savings and treasure troves of those dead wizards and families are a lot of money! It doesn’t matter if someone robs you a little bit.

After the foreign fairies settled in, it began to operate again.

These foreign goblins are even more daring and have begun to secretly speculate in gold in the British Muggle society!

After all, although running a bank is very profitable, wouldn’t it be even more profitable to cut leeks? It came quickly!

However, they fairies do understand economics and finance better than wizards, but they are far behind those financial giants like Muggles who specialize in cutting leeks and even make a career out of it.

The current situation is so chaotic. Regardless of the US dollar and the British pound, they have all depreciated sharply. Only gold and hard currency are soaring. I don’t know how many people were involved in this.

The goblins went in with Gringotts’ Galleons at the bottom, and they were buried within three days. They were immediately trapped.

Only then did these goblins realize how abominable Muggles are!

How damn abominable! You fairies are all lying, you are inhumane!

But this matter must be resolved quickly. This is not your own money, this is the Dark Lord’s money. The goblins just wanted to borrow money to make money, but they lost money.

If the Dark Lord discovers this, he will have to extract the soul directly and turn it into a zombie!

The goblins are working hard to maintain the economic operation of the magic world with limited funds. It can be said that they are sweating on their foreheads every day. My first reaction after getting off work is: Another day has passed!

This is no solution!

So, someone came up with a solution.

After much deliberation, we have arrived at the “Hogsmeade Village Victory”!

The Dark Lord is going to Hogwarts himself to capture the enemy’s last stronghold.

The goblins feel that the opportunity has come!

It just so happened that one of the goblins from Switzerland had some valuable news. The fairies hit it off immediately and took risks.

It turns out that Switzerland has bad feng shui or something, and there is always a risk of aliens coming in.

There have been two major events in the Orc cave and the Orc city before.

And this goblin from Switzerland happens to know a secret, a secret about the infiltration of other worlds.

It turned out that there was an alien entrance point that appeared very early, before the magic network was covered, but because there was nothing abnormal, it was not discovered.

But that goblin knew that he was a local after all!

He felt that this news would help the goblins settle their accounts. After thinking about it, the goblins realized that they were already at this stage and could give it a try.

So there was this attack on Gringotts!

Don’t tell me, it was really attacked, and it was not simple, it was actually a giant dragon attacking Gringotts!

After that, before leaving, they occupied all the treasure troves under Gringotts!

This is not a fire dragon from this world, but a giant dragon from another world!

A giant dragon with a body length of forty meters!

The goblins who woke up the giant dragon and provoked it were also dumbfounded: You didn’t tell them how big this dragon was!

This giant dragon sleeping in a golden nest under Gringotts is called Smaug!
