Chapter 267: Black Lake Crisis (6)

The gloomy altar, the vicious fish-man guards, and the ill-intentioned brothers and sisters all made the sirens feel ominous. After following the two mermaids to the altar www.biquge.info, the powerful figures of several tribes, including the father-in-law, were there, and even the only female elder who rarely appeared was sitting not far away.

"Siren, are you back, where have you been today?" asked the father-in-law with a blank face, and the siren didn't know how to answer.

"I'm going to hunt down three escaped Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry students today?"

"Did you catch it?"

"No, they're too cunning. ”

"I don't think they're too cunning, it's someone who helps them so they can escape!" The mermaid elders didn't give the sirens a chance to continue lying and quibble, Morten glanced at the sirens coldly, and a gray spell hit the sirens, and the sirens felt as if they were in a dream, and a sense of happiness of unknown origin defended them, making them feel like they were in a hot spring.

Mom and Dad, who he had missed for a long time, were about to hug him, but their faces were a little blurry and they couldn't see clearly, but the sirens could feel their friendliness. They smiled at the sirens, talked to them, and asked the sirens how they were doing during this time and if there were any interesting things. The sirens told their parents all their little secrets, the evil intentions of their stepfather, the ugly jealousy of their brothers and sisters, the unhappiness of the mermaid tribe, the longing for their parents, and the occasional encounter with a wizard in the castle.

"Did the wizard tell you to let the three Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry students go?" Dad asked kindly, seemingly angry at what had happened to the Sirens.

"Well, Headmaster Dunledore has promised me that when I finish this, I will become a student of Hogwarts, and I can learn magic openly in the future, and I will no longer have to be afraid of being bullied by those merfolk. The siren smiled happily.

"It's a beautiful dream, but it's a pity that it will never come true!" Before the siren could understand what was going on, her parents seemed to have disappeared, and then she felt a chill in her chest, as if a pocket had been pierced into a steel needle, and when the siren woke up from the dream, everything in front of her made her completely desperate.

"It turns out that everything was a dream just now?!" The siren looked at the cold-eyed father-in-law, the brother-in-law and sister with a sarcastic look on his face, and some of them looked at their Moteng cruelly, feeling extremely cold.

I've never seen my parents before, just now in my dream, their appearance is so vague, my father looks like Lord Dumbledore of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, maybe not so old, not full of gray hair, maybe...

The cold and darkness consumed the siren's consciousness, her body began to stiffen and cold, and life inexorably disappeared from the wound in her chest.

"Send someone to the nursery immediately and arrest the three wizards. Also, inform all the warriors of the tribe that they are ready to fight at any time. From the siren's words, knowing that at this time Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was ready to rescue the students, and the form had changed from a sneak attack to a head-on confrontation, Moteng did not show the slightest sign of fear, but said to the tribal elders more fiercely.

At this time, Cedric Diggory, who had left the nursery along the waterway, was cautiously walking between the tribes, and the exit of the entire tribe was blocked, and if Victor Krum and Rose came out of the nursery, the only consequence would be to be found and caught immediately.

Rose was right to be worried, if the trio ventured out of their hideout, they would be greeted only by the Fishman Warrior's harpoon.

Cedric Diggory is now in a dilemma, he wants to go back and report the situation, but he is afraid that Victor Krum and the two will not be able to hold on, so he will run out on his own, and he should have made an agreement between the two of them if he knew that this would happen.

It's a pity that there is no way back at this time. The invisibility spell generally doesn't last long, and it looks like a shark, even if it's stealth, but when you act in the water, there will inevitably be fluctuations in water lines, in this case, Cedric Diggory can only cautiously want to go back to the nursery room and tell the two of them about the situation outside.

As Cedric Diggory was about to turn back, there was a strange sound from the entire Fish-Man tribe, which was very harsh, and Cedric Diggory did not know that it was the merfolk siren, but he saw that the merfolk were coming out of their houses, and most of the male merfolk still had harpoons in their hands.

Immediately realizing that something was wrong, Cedric Diggory could only hide behind a tribal house for the time being. A group of merfolk warriors swam swiftly through the streets, and they swam in the same direction that Cedric Diggory had come from: the nursery had been discovered!

The merfolk tribe was on full alert, and if they returned at this time, the only result would be that they would be caught as well, and Cedric Diggory did not dare to make the slightest move, watching the merfolk rush into the nursery, and after more than ten minutes, they brought Victor Klum and Rose out.

Both seemed to faint, and Cedric Diggory tried not to let himself think they were dead. The merfolk dragged the two of them away.

Seeing that things are irreparable, and without the magic of Rose and Victor Klum, the shark's voice change and invisibility spell could disappear at any moment. Cedric Diggory could only cautiously follow the undercurrent slowly out of the tribe's warning range, and when he was far enough away, he swam frantically to the shore.

By the time he reached the surface, the invisibility spell and the shark spell were gone.

"Over there, there's a wizard over there!" an Animagus osprey spotted Cedric Diggory as he flew back to shore and turned back into a wizard, pointing out Cedric Diggory's location to the other Aurors.

Cedric Diggory was not far from the shore, and soon the wizards drove the magic ship out of the water.

"Headmaster, Headmaster, quick! Victor Krum and Rose Kossaczi have been captured by merfolk, their magic is gone, I don't know if they are still or not!" Cedric Diggory said hurriedly as he saw the familiar Dumbledore Headmaster.

"Don't worry, Cedric, how did you escape, did the mermaid siren get you out?" asked Dumbledore.

"Siren, she did help us, but then she hid us and left, and we never saw her again. Victor Krum used the Transfiguration Charm on me, and Rose used the Invisibility Charm on me to give me a chance to escape from the Horde, but both of them were captured, as I saw with my own eyes. Cedric Diggory gasped for breath as if he were still in the water, and the cold water was still suffocating him.

Hearing that the sirens did not save the three students as agreed, Dumbledore knew that something was wrong.

"Albus, there is no choice, now we have to act. Bones listened to Cedric Diggory and looked at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore seems to be in some kind of painful struggle, but at this time, two students are still trapped at the bottom of the Black Lake, and their lives are in danger at any time, and if they die for their own reasons, then Dumbledore will feel guilty for the rest of his life.

"Amelia, tell the Aurors to get ready, and in five minutes, we'll dive into the lake. ”

――――――――――――

Voldemort looked at the horror in Nick Lemay's icy eyes, and for the first time was not happy. Voldemort loved fear, which he believed would help him rule the world.

Constant killing, constant intimidation, and finally getting these wizards accustomed to their invincible authority, this is what Voldemort once wanted to achieve. The biggest goal an ordinary wizard could think of, he almost almost achieved it.

But Voldemort failed, and after he was hurt by a protective spell unleashed by a poor mother's life, his power fell apart like a bubble, and Voldemort did not see any decent struggle among his so-called Death Eaters, who did not even secretly continue to know the whereabouts of their former masters, and completely failed.

When he was first imprisoned in the Black Forest, Voldemort once thought that this might be a matter of fate, a prophet predicted all this, and he was sometimes like a marionette, doing what he had to do according to the instructions of fate.

Voldemort had only heard half of the prophecy, and in the dark forest, he knew that he was too impatient, and he should find the full prophecy, and then study it carefully, calmly find out the traps, and then act.

But at that time he was too smooth, wizarding England was completely enveloped by his own reign of terror, what could stop him? a newborn baby? Joke! What Voldemort was really afraid of was not a babbling child, but the malice of fate itself.

He still failed, and the price of losing to fate was the pain of more than ten years of loneliness and loneliness in the Black Forest.

When Voldemort was confronted by Quirrell, he felt that it was simply the arrangement of the god of magic, and he successfully persuaded the stupid child to agree to share his body with him, which allowed Voldemort to take the first step towards revival.

Sometimes Voldemort would think that he would fight it to the end, regardless of whether fate had ill will towards him or not.

Nick Lemay had fear in his eyes at this time, Voldemort had never seen it, and the gifted Voldemort could even see some fragments from Nick's momentary distraction.

"How about it, seeing those scenes of hell coming, do you still want to open the Ancient Seal?" The memory of the Black Death, the Angel of Death, was only for a moment, and it still made Nick feel extremely uncomfortable, Voldemort took advantage of his distraction and saw some scenes of death, and I don't know how he feels now.

"That's all true? Corpse Mountain, the whole city seems to be dead!" Voldemort said as he looked at Nick's somewhat pale face.

"Of course it's true! Open a Muggle history book and you'll know that history, almost all Muggles died in that plague, wizards were not spared, one-third of wizards were brought back to the underworld by the Angel of Death, many wizarding sects died overnight, and until now, the vitality of the wizarding world has not recovered. Nick said coldly.

"But what does this have to do with the Ancient Seal, it's just a plague!" Voldemort said after calming his mind and thinking for a moment. Not so long ago, Voldemort would have feared and resisted death, but at this time, after completely getting rid of the naturally defective body of his close relatives, Voldemort had a faint sense of excitement while fearing death, as if he could master the power of death and master a higher secret.

"Voldemort, you didn't listen to me. Those plagues didn't come out of nowhere overnight, but broke into our world from the ancient seals. Our world is like a very pure lake, we live in this lake every day, and the outside world cannot hurt us because of the protection of the lake. Opening the Ancient Seal is like dripping poison into a lake, and maybe with just one or two Destruction Angels, we ordinary wizards will be completely wiped out!" Lemay said.

"No, Lemay, these are unfounded legends, and I won't believe any of your stories without evidence. ”

"It doesn't matter, Lord Voldemort, it's your freedom to believe what I say, but I also ask you not to believe the legend that the Ancient Seal is a source of great magical power, no matter where you hear it. Now you can investigate, you can find the truth, but you have to promise me that you will never try to open the Elder Seal until you understand what you are doing. ”

Voldemort smiled coldly, "Lemay, you have successfully piqued my curiosity, I will investigate, but before that, I must warn you." ”

"What?"

"An organization called 'Don' is trying to invade the European continent, it seems to have established itself on the continent, and at this time it is preparing to cross the channel and invade the United Kingdom, you have to be careful, they are not good!"

"'Don'? I've never heard of it, what kind of organization is this?" asked Lemay, puzzled. The Death Eaters represented by Voldemort are definitely not small, although the influence in the whole of Europe is limited, but in Britain alone, the Death Eater organization is definitely the second largest organization after the Ministry of Magic. Even Voldemort found the organization tricky, and it was an alien organization, which surprised Lemay.

"An organization with great ambitions, it seems to be from East Asia, and it doesn't seem to be, anyway, you are so good, Gellert Grindelwald's wizarding army is probably no match for this organization!" After saying this, Voldemort turned into a cloud of black smoke and disappeared.

"The Wizarding Army is already the only hope for continental union in Europe, and now that even the Death Eaters have noticed Don, it seems that they are no longer ready to hide, ready to deal with us blatantly. Is the war, which has lasted for nearly a thousand years, about to begin again after a short period of peace?" Nick Lemay turned to look at the crucifix, and the image of a man from the Far East with a high jade crown with a blank face and a black and purple silk robe came to mind.

"Don! After all these hundred years, what are you going to bring to the world?!"
