The Land of Twilight, forever in the twilight, is surrounded by white Beyond flowers, which remain pale until the vampires who planted them die and blood is smeared on them, turning into blood-red Beyond Doomsday Flowers. In Muggle lore, the son of Adam is the ancestor of all vampires, and as time passes, the family of ancestors begins to slowly disappear, and the bloodline of vampires is as unstoppable as the decline of the wizarding world. Only Muggles, with their unimaginable numbers and passion, have slowly taken over the vast majority of the world.

Vampires once had the opportunity to take the place of humans and become masters of this land, and like all powerful aliens, they were defeated. Whether it is a werewolf, a fish-man, or a centaur, any other magical creature is slowly eroded and attacked by the terrifying ability of human beings, and finally becomes a loser and slowly withdraws from the world stage.

Strange Muggles, who had no special abilities, slowly established a dynasty of their own race with their hands. The richest lands, the warmest plains, and the verdant forests are now Muggle activity sites. Although almost all Muggles still believe that they were created by God, this god has no control over his creation, and Muggles are like a virus that infects the entire world.

Until the plains or hills, where the seasons are like spring and the environment are better, are not completely used, this small paradise between the valleys above the harsh snow line of the Alps has not yet been discovered. Although the Holy See is aware of the entrenchment of dark forces here, it has not yet raised troops to attack it.

The Church, as one of the largest Muggle powers, has maintained its strength until the last century, and with the birth of new technology, Muggles have gradually become alienated from the Church, which has weakened the power of the Church in the last hundred years. With the advent of the end of the Dharma era, the church will only become weaker and more broken, and its ability to sustain the world will become weaker and weaker. This is also true of the Daoist forces in the Far East: although they have controlled the power of the Far Eastern for more than a thousand years, in modern times, with the advent of the end of the Dharma era, the Daoist system has also begun to decline and shatter.

The power of forgiveness is rapidly weakening, killing and plundering are becoming outlets for resentment and anger, and the terrible impact of the end of the Dharma era is slowly changing the underlying consciousness of every life, and perhaps in a few hundred years, hell will come completely.

Voldemort's black mist figure landed in front of the Twilight Citadel Gate, the quaint bronze gate had existed for an unknown amount of time, and it was not known how long it would exist in the future. The gate is carved with intricate rattan silk patterns, and these flowers and vines are full of different flowers, some of these flowers look like human faces, some look like spider faces, and some are like sea octopuses, thousands of forms, all kinds of appearances --- tree of life!

The noble family of the Patriarchs is located closest to the root of this tree, where Yahweh had just created Adam, given Adam life, and bestowed Adam's companion Eve.

At the first fork, the family of the Ancestors occupies one of the two thickest branches. Voldemort looked at Cain, who was as handsome as a god's carving, and raised the stone with a hideous face, trying to smash the blur on the ground. In Voldemort's opinion, this is naturally complete nonsense, not to mention that before the destruction of the ancient demon gods, human beings have been manufactured on a large scale as a weapon or resource, and the so-called ancestral family alone makes Voldemort feel ridiculous. Salazar Slytherin's bloodline, the glory of the Slytherin Quetzalcoatl, would he care about the ancestors of these weak Muggles? If there was anything to be admired about Cain, it was probably his cruel nature: he killed his own brother with his own hands.

The Twilight Clan, although it has always existed, is now almost non-existent in the bloodline that truly originated from antiquity. Now, even in this twilight fortress, only a third of the vampires still retain their powerful bloodlines, and the rest are only imitations of humanoid weapons. Relative to eternity, any life that has not reached the realm of a demon god will decay.

Tom Riddle stood silently in front of the gate, which had stood in the cold winds of the Alps for thousands of years, and was about to witness the decline of the Twilight Clan. Powerful waves of magic emanated from Voldemort's body, causing ripples in the surrounding space, ripples rushing from one center to the surroundings, and the intricate patterns on those doors shone brightly, trying to block the fluctuations of this space. Tom naturally didn't use all his strength, this was just a reminder to those vampires in the castle who was the real powerhouse in this world.

Sure enough, the reminder of the Dark Lord, who was coldly received, made the entire Twilight Fortress realize that the situation was a little out of control, and two newly promoted viscounts immediately came to open the door. Voldemort ignored the angry vampires, and he walked into the Twilight Fortress with his head held slightly high.

At this time in the castle, Severus Snape and Professor Albus Dumbledore had already walked to Harry Potter's bed, Albus Dumbledore looked at the sleeping Potter, and whispered: "Severus, you see, in addition to his eyes, he also sleeps very much like Lily, I remember that time when we were at the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, I once saw Lily sleeping on the sofa tiredly, just like Potter, very peaceful." Lily is a great wizard, and she has done so much to fight against Voldemort..."

Professor Snape didn't look at him, his eyes became more confused and hollow, and years of occlusion had made his feelings like critters hidden in the deepest part of the cavern, never trying to reveal his secrets.

Albus Dumbledore took advantage of Severus Snape. Severus Snape foolishly told Voldemort about the prophecy he had only heard half of, and when he knew that the prophecy was directed to his beloved Lily, he regretted his stupidity, knowing that Voldemort would not spare Lily for his sake. Feeling so remorseful for his stupidity and recklessness, he asked Albus Dumbledore to redeem his mistakes.

But in the end, Lily Evans still died in the curse of fate, and she sacrificed herself in exchange for Harry Potter's survival. It was a heavy blow to Severus Snape. But at least, Severus Snape survived, as a spy for Albus Dumbledore.

"I can't wait any longer, you have to teach him Occlumency with all your might, now there is an enchantment at Hogwarts, Potter is safe for the time being, but Potter can't live within the enchantment for the rest of his life, Voldemort will not hesitate to control him once he finds an opportunity. Turn him into a terrible weapon. Voldemort changed, he became more powerful and cunning. Albus Dumbledore continued.

"Hmph, Lord Headmaster, Potter is not suitable for learning Occlumency at all, he is a showy little devil like his father, let alone suppressing those boring thoughts in his mind with Occlumency, even if Potter does not speak for a day, it will suffocate him to death. So if you really want me to help, I'd rather provide some Forgetting Potions so that Potter can forget all about the past. Severus Snape said indifferently and slowly.

"Of course I know Potter isn't a good fit for Occlumency, so I'm asking you to teach him. You're one of the strongest occlusionists, and even I can't compare to you in this regard. You fooled Voldemort, so I hope you can get Potter to copy your methods and fool Voldemort as well. Albus Dumbledore said.

"It takes two things to fool Voldemort: perseverance and perseverance, both of which I don't see in Potter. I must warn you, Headmaster, that you are hoping for the impossible. Potter could never compete with the Dark Lord, who never rested, let alone in the spirit world. Professor Severus Snape insisted.

"Severus, we have no choice, and the only way I can think of is, other than Occlumency, is to keep Potter in the cloak of invisibility, or to find the lost Ravenclaw's crown. The cloak insulates all detection, and the crown protects the soul. Potter was still a child, and he couldn't have grown up properly in such a situation. Albus Dumbledore said.

"Maybe a seal spell can solve this problem. You know, Headmaster, a proper seal...," Severus Snape said tentatively.

"No, Severus, the seal would directly hurt Potter's soul, and he couldn't afford that. Albus Dundon's half-moon glasses were only fixed on Severus Snape, as if he wanted to see what Severus Snape really thought. Although Albus Dumbledore insisted on his judgment that Severus Snape would continue to protect Potter and stand by his side, he was still not sure whether Severus Snape hated James Potter more or loved Lily Potter more.

Severus Snape obviously understood Albus Dumbledore's consideration, he looked at Potter on the bed with a blank face, and after a while said, "Okay, Albus Dumbledore, I'll try, but don't get your hopes up, you need to be prepared to fail." ”

"Of course, Severus, I know exactly what I'm doing, so when Potter wakes up, I'll start as soon as I do. I'll keep an eye on the progress during this time, and if there's a problem, I'll consider something else. Albus Dumbledore said.

Hermione's question brought Hagrid into reminiscence, and Ron was bored with his tea, he was disgusted by anything Voldemort, an attitude that a righteous wizard should have. After Hermione was deep in thought and Hagrid was in memory, there was silence for a while, and Ron suddenly remembered something.

"I've heard my dad say that Severus Snape is a Death Eater?, Hagrid, do you know about that?" Ron Weasley asked suddenly.

"Oh. Hagrid looked unnaturally at the rock cake on the table, this time he didn't think for long, "Albus Dumbledore believes in him, although many doubt him, but Albus Dumbledore believes in him. The Headmaster vouched for him, confirming that Severus Snape was a spy for the Order of the Phoenix, a Death Eater who had only joined for information. Hagrid scratched the back of his head, he was certainly not too sure, not to mention wizards in general, but also many members of the Order of the Phoenix who were hostile to Severus Snape.

"But others still don't believe me, don't they, Hagrid?" Ron Weasley leaned forward slightly, as if he had noticed something interesting, "Dad said that Severus Snape joined the Death Eaters from the beginning, and although he wasn't the first batch like Lucius Malfoy, he supported the Death Eaters from the bottom of his heart, and he was just turned against Albus Dumbledore, which is completely different from what Albus Dumbledore said about working for the Order of the Phoenix in the first place, isn't it?"

Hagrid was in a dilemma, but he quickly waved his hand, "It's not as hard as you think, just identify a problem." Hagrid smiled wryly, "That's whether Albus Dundedo can be trusted." If we believe in Albus Dumbledore, we should believe in Severus Snape, who he believes. ”

"Huh?" Ron obviously didn't expect Hagrid to say this, "but Albus Dumbledore can also make mistakes, he was..." Hagrid glared at him sternly, Ron didn't continue, Hermione was a little confused, to be honest, the current students of Hogwarts didn't know much about their headmaster, and they could almost say that they knew nothing about Albus Dundon except for those hearsay.

"Severus Snape is a professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he is your teacher, you should maintain a minimum of respect for him, and do not talk about him behind his back. You see, even Igor Karkaroff can change his ways and become the headmaster of Durmstrang, and there is absolutely no reason to suspect Professor Severus Snape, whom Albus Dumbledore trusts. Hagrid uttered his own warning. Ron was a little unconvinced, but he didn't insist on the debate, and Hermione asked, "Professor Snape was once a Death Eater, and Headmaster Igor Karkaroff was a Death Eater?"

Ron nodded hurriedly, hoping to get Hermione's support, and Hagrid said angrily, "Forget about the old things, the important thing now is to find out who attacked Potter." ”

"I can't think of anyone other than the Dark Lord who has such a skill. Ron was just as quick to say, "It's impossible for an average wizard to operate anything from outside the enchantment at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, let alone attack Harry. ”

"Hagrid, do you have any suspicions?" asked Hermione seriously.

"You don't know much about the enchantments at Hogwarts Castle. So it's not clear what the enchantment does. If you want to cheat the enchantment and attack Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it will require extremely powerful mana and the cost is extremely huge, so it will be too difficult to control Harry from outside the enchantment. In my opinion, there may be five schools where Death Eaters lurk, and they are waiting for an opportunity to control Harry. Hagrid said.
