Chapter 174: Collecting Horcruxes (2-in-1)

Diagon Alley, the headquarters of the Alchemy Foundation.

The white three-story building stands tall and surrounded by a steady stream of wizards excitedly picking out various types of decks.

These people are dressed in very different costumes and look like wizards from all over the world.

The much-anticipated second edition of the Wizarding World Phantom Card Fighting Tournament will be held in a month's time, and they hope to buy a powerful magic card to do well in the fighting match.

After all, the reward for the first place in the Phantom Card Fighting Tournament is a full 10,000 gold Galleons, plus an S-level Phantom Card customization.

Although every Alchemy Foundation in the wizarding world has magic cards for sale, legend has it that only the headquarters in Diagon Alley, England can buy S-class magic cards.

In the first Phantom Card Fighting Tournament, Dumbledore won the fighting tournament with an S Phantom Beast, the Xuanhuo Phoenix.

The combat power of the S-class magic card is self-evident.

"Oh shit, I've got all of them. A gorgeously-looking wizard sighed with a stack of freshly opened decks in his hand.

He has already made a lot of kryptonite, just to have a powerful phantom beast, but the phantom cards sold by the Alchemy Foundation are all random, and any kind of card will appear, and those precious cards are undoubtedly scarce and not easy to draw.

However, he has a big family and a big business, and he can't look down on this gold galleon.

"Bring me two more sets of magic cards!" he said arrogantly, throwing down a bag of gold galleons.

Such a phenomenon seems to be everywhere here.

......

In the conference room on the second floor, Canaan was listening to the Guvets report on the development of the Alchemy Foundation this year.

"After Dumbledore became Minister, we have been growing very well in the British wizarding community. However, our power has also caused resistance from the pure-blood families and the rest of the wizarding world. Guvett said slowly.

"Which pure-blood families?"

"Millicente, the former minister, and the Avery family, and the Malfoy family," Guvett said one by one.

Canaan plucked his ears and smiled: "It's really a lot, there are 28 pure-blood families in the UK, and a small half of them are here." ”

Guvet suddenly leaned over and whispered, "There are rumors that the mysterious man is coming back, so Millicent was able to win over these pure-blood families who support the mysterious man and want to unite against us. ”

Canaan nodded and asked, "What about Dumbledore, what is his attitude?"

"Dumbledore has been waiting for you to come back and make a decision, but he feels that dealing with these pure-blood families needs to be slow, after all, many of their families have deep roots, and if they are not handled well, they may cause a shock in the wizarding world. ”

Canaan thought for a while and said decisively: "Don't spare your hands, deal with them directly, this group of people is a cancer in the wizarding world, I will let Malekith and them help you." ”

Only then did Guvet relent, he knew that Malekith was an elven race that Canaan had brought from the other world not long ago, and their technology was advanced and powerful.

Coupled with Kangra's group of squibs, the elusive space opening technique makes it much easier to deal with these purebloods.

After coming out of the Alchemy Foundation, Canaan came to Hogwarts.

He wandered casually along the castle, and many students took the initiative to greet him along the way, and the news of Chairman Brian's return from suspension was no secret to Hogwarts.

Only a few first-year freshmen were very curious about the chairman, whom they had never met before, and some even came up to ask for autographs.

The alchemy laboratory on the edge of the Black Lake has been completed and put into use, and the students are very satisfied with the well-equipped laboratory.

It's the weekend, and most of the students have gathered in the magic card dueling arena outside the castle.

Team Rowenclaw is up against Team Gryffindor!

Team Matchups are different from individual tournaments in that each team consists of three people who need to help each other win the match.

The two teams chose a starry sky as their field card, and after Professor McGonagall blew the whistle, they released their phantom beasts.

"I'm sure to say that today's game must have been very exciting, I heard that Gryffindor's George got a very powerful magic card, maybe it will teach the Ravenclaw team a hard lesson..."

"Oh, is Fred living in a dream? ”

"Very well, Ravenclaw's Davis was eliminated first, it's really incredible that one of his most powerful magic cards actually appeared in the hands of his opponent George, is this some kind of PY deal?"

"Hey, he seemed to be talking to me, and he stretched out a finger, f... u.. c... Hell, this guy looks like he's scolding me? oh... Damn, if I were Professor McGonagall, I'd have to give him 10 points!"

“......”

The narrator is a black guy from Gryffindor, Lee Jordan. His exaggerated and humorous explanations occasionally drew bursts of laughter.

In the audience, Canaan sat down next to Alita and took Pikachu in her arms.

"Pika, Pika..." Pikachu opened his misty eyes, looked at Canaan, and called out weakly.

"Grandpa Scamander said that the energy in his body was very unstable and that he might need sleep to stabilize. Alita said with some distress.

Canaan nodded, feeling the irritable electricity coming from Pikachu's body before relieving himself.

He reckoned that this was a precursor to Pikachu's evolution, but it may have taken a long time to evolve because of the lack of lightning stones.

"Will you still go to Hogwarts?" Alita asked softly, pursing her rosy lips.

"How can you ask that?" Canaan looked at her with interest.

"I don't think the Hogwarts classes will help you anymore, and you don't need the professors anymore for your strength. Alita thought for a moment and said slowly.

Canaan smiled and said, "There's still a lot to learn from Hogwarts, and there are some spells that I still haven't learned yet, at least the books in the forbidden section haven't finished reading yet." ”

He paused, then continued, "However, I may have to stay at Hogwarts in a different way. ”

"Another way?" asked Alita, puzzled.

"You'll find out later. Canaan played a dumb riddle, then got up and left here with Pikachu in his arms, waved his hand and said, "Dumbledore is still waiting for me, so I'll go first." ”

Then Canaan came to the secret realm of the Dragon Valley, which is now built by Malekis.

A base made of silver metal is halfway completed, and there are many nanobots around it that are constantly laying the foundation.

Most of the dark elves that Canaan brought over this time are scientific research talents, who can help him develop the technology of this world.

More combative Dark Elves and Cursed Warriors were left to Thor by Canaan to guard Asgard and Earth.

Placing Pikachu in the bio-instrument, Canaan left the place.

These biological instruments can not only monitor Pikachu's physiology in real time, but also simulate the environment in which Pikachu evolved.

......

In the Headmaster's room, Dumbledore was already waiting for him at the door.

He smiled and said, "Need a glass of chilled lemonade before you go?"

Canaan shook his head: "No, looking at your impatience, I think we should collect all the things first." ”

He was going to take Dumbledore with him to collect all the remaining Horcruxes of Voldemort. Even if Voldemort did return, with these Horcruxes in hand, this white-faced man with no nose would not be able to play any tricks.

In the original plot, in addition to Harry Potter, Voldemort made a total of six Horcruxes, of which the sixth Horcrux, Nagini Serpent, was made after Voldemort's resurrection.

However, the diary has been taken to another world, and the Ravenclaw crown has been found by Canaan in advance.

So for now, they only need to find the remaining three Horcruxes.

Marvolo Gaunt's ring, Salazar Slytherin's locket, Helga Hufflepuff's cup.

Thinking of the original plot, Dumbledore was tempted by the resurrection stone and fell under the curse of dark magic on the ring.

Canaan repeatedly admonished, "You must listen to me this time, or I can't guarantee that there will be no accidents." ”

"Of course. Dumbledore replied cheerfully.

Gringotts, the underground vault, not only depicts the anti-phantom transformation magic circle, but also has the Alchemy Foundation's anti-space device, which is heavily guarded.

It is known as the safest place in the wizarding world.

Today, though, two uninvited visitors arrived.

"This is supposed to be the vault, it belongs to Bellatrix, Voldemort's loyal men. Canaan carved a golden portal in mirror space and led Dumbledore to the inside of the vault.

The vault was filled with a large amount of treasure, and the faces of both men were reflected in the light of the candles.

Looking at the golden cup on the pile of treasures, Canaan slowly removed it with a levitation charm and put it into the forbidden demon storage box that had been prepared in advance.

"There's a curse on it?" Dumbledore asked.

"Infinite Replication Spell. ”

Dumbledore nodded, then placed one of the cups in the vault to the top of the treasure pile by transforming it into a Hufflepuff Gold Cup.

Golden sparks flashed, and Canaan led Dumbledore to a dark cavern.

Ahead is a deadly pool, and in the center of the pool is a stone basin.

This place is very secretive, and if it weren't for the memories he had extracted from the Black family elf Kreacher before, he really wouldn't have been able to find it.

"The second Horcrux is here?"

Canaan shook his head and said, "There are no Horcruxes here, but there is a dead unsung hero. ”

Canaan then tells the story of Regulus' rebellion against Voldemort and the theft of the real Horcruxes.

"He was a brave boy. Dumbledore sighed.

In Dumbledore's memory, Regulus, as a pure-blooded defender, was one of the first to join the Death Eaters, but the child had done nothing bad.

Perhaps it was because he discovered Voldemort's cruel nature that he made up his mind to rebel against Voldemort.

Canaan came to the waterhole, and beneath the calm, clear water was a pale corpse.

At the slightest disturbance from above, these Yin Corpses will swarm out, tear apart any living creatures, and drag them to the bottom of the lake.

After searching in the water for a long time, Canaan found the body of Regulus, who was covered with pale wounds and apparently suffered a great deal before he died.

Canaan used a levitation charm to remove his corpse from the lake, an act that immediately startled the corpses below the surface of the water, and they climbed onto the surface of the pool.

"Mr. Headmaster, it's up to you. ”

Dumbledore waved his wand, and flames erupted from the tip of the wand, incinerating the corpses.

After cleaning up all the corpses, Canaan buried the body of Regulus on the spot and inscribed it on a stone tablet that reads:

"I'm willing to die for you, a mortal of flesh and blood when you meet your opponent.

- The bravest Regulus Black"

Canaan bowed to the tomb and said, "Let's go, Mr. Headmaster, let's go to the location of the last Horcrux." ”

"You've got the Horcrux?"

"The Horcrux was in the Black family's old mansion, and I took it out when I was looking for their family's elves, which saved us another trip. Canaan explained with a smile.

Dumbledore nodded, knowing Canaan's intention in bringing him here, "I'll spread the word about Regulus, he's a good boy." ”

"That's what you should do. Canaan smiled.

......

The Gaunt family lives in a house on the edge of Little Hangleston, which is about to collapse.

Surrounded by dense forests, it exudes an eerie and eerie atmosphere.

The last Horcrux, the ring with the Resurrection Stone, is here.

The dilapidated hut door is nailed to a dead snake in the shape of an S, symbolizing Slytherin purebloods.

"The last time I was here, it wasn't so run-down. Dumbledore sighed with emotion in his voice.

The two of them walked into the small room and found that it was very dirty, with thick dust piled up on the table, and it looked like no one had been here for a long time.

Looking at the empty cabin, Canaan frowned, not knowing where Voldemort would put the ring.

The film only says that Dumbledore found the Horcrux here, but it doesn't say where he found it.

He didn't dare to let Dumbledore find the Horcrux alone, otherwise he might be tempted by the Resurrection Stone.

Moreover, this Horcrux was put by Voldemort himself, and it may not be so easy to get it.

Thinking of this, Canaan took Dumbledore to the mirror space.

He put on the suspension ring and waved his arms, and the entire space in the room was flipped over by him.

Although there is no pseudo-Agamotto Eye at present, after Marvel's party, his ability to manipulate space has also improved a lot.

The contents of the room were folded up until the floor was flipped open, revealing the golden box inside.

The box was buried several meters deep, and the soil was covered with traps.

However, this is not a problem for Canaan, who has the Spatial Door Opening Technique.

After opening a spatial door under the golden box, Canaan successfully obtained the last Horcrux, the ring of Marvolo Gaunt.

Looking at the golden box that Canaan had put into the storage bag, Dumbledore couldn't help but say, "Can you show me?"

Canaan shook his head and refused directly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Headmaster, let's not look at it for any unpredictable situation." ”

After all, he didn't know how much the Resurrection Stone was alluring to Dumbledore, so it was better to be cautious.

Then Canaan came to a cyan marble wall, and when he flipped through the space, he found what seemed to be hidden.
