Chapter 66: Solving Doubts (I)
"This is normal, Dumbledore was cheating on death, of course he would not appear at Hogwarts openly, otherwise it would have caused a lot of trouble. Silver looked around, "Do you see any new faces in the school? like new teachers, new teaching assistants, etc. β
"The only new teachers are Bulco and Skoll, both of whom teach Defence Against the Dark Arts, and Professor Snape is teaching Potions again. Michael Kona said.
"I'm the only assistant at Hogwarts this year. Qiu Zhang said.
"And where would Dumbledore hide?" Silver muttered. "Maybe I should go meet with Headmaster Slughorn. β
Hearing this, the crowd muttered quietly, Neville's brow furrowed.
"Jack, do you think Headmaster Slughorn is reliable?"
"Of course it's reliable, why do you ask?"
"Because Slughorn was very supportive of the two bastards Bulko and Skoll and made a mess of Hogwarts. "He once led a team to hunt down us oppositionists, and he almost caught me that time." β
"Trust me, Ernie. Don't look at Professor Slughorn's age, if he tries to arrest you, you can't escape. "Don't underestimate him, because without him, we wouldn't have been able to kill the Dark Lord." β
Silver's roommate, Terry Bout, suddenly raised his hand, "Jack, can you explain, we don't understand. β
"Well, while Dumbledore would definitely be against it, I think you have a right to know, too. Silver said. "We're on the same front, and I don't think we should keep it a secret from you. β
Everyone nodded yes, some with a fist, some with serious expressions, and two even got up from their chairs and expressed their desire to know what was going on.
"Then I'll try to make a long story short. "You should have heard from the radio that it is not Lucius Malfoy's gang who are really in charge of the Ministry of Magic now, but behind him there is a very mysterious young wizard - much like the Dark Lord when he was younger. β
"Isn't the Dark Lord dead, dead at Hogwarts?" said Neville. "Is it really as it says on the radio, that Voldemort's dangerous magic experiments have succeeded?"
"Of course the Dark Lord we know is dead, and this time it was a complete death. "But as you've heard before, one of those evil magical experiments he did when he was a student succeeded, and Voldemort died, but the young Voldemort was still alive." β
"Do you mean Horcruxes?" Ernie McMillan almost jumped, "is this absurdly evil really working?"
"Yes, I thought so. Silver said.
"Wait. Lavender Brown looked confused, "What is a Horcrux?"
"A very evil thing, the invention of a dark wizard who seeks eternal life. Without waiting for Silver to answer, Ernie McMillan said, his voice trembling a little, "The Dark Wizard will use a special method to split his soul and inject a part of his soul into an artifact, so that even if the Dark Wizard dies, there is still a part of his soul undamaged in the world, so that he does not really die, as long as the Dark Wizard with the Horcrux can be resurrected through some equally evil and ancient rituals." β
"But, but. Ernie McMillan's expression was very strange, "There shouldn't be a young Dark Lord." β
"It's normal. "After all, the Dark Lord is one of the most powerful Dark Wizards of all time, and each of his souls possesses extremely powerful magical powers. For other wizards, at most they will make a Horcrux, and the role of the Horcrux is only to serve as an anchor. Horcruxes exist in the world, and another part of the souls that should have gone to the underworld can also stay in the world through induction, and wait for the opportunity to be resurrected. Voldemort, on the other hand, made seven Horcruxes, and each of his soul fragments was so powerful that each of his Horcruxes had a chance to break free from the shackles of the artifacts and become an independent individual, just like the Devil Earthworm. β
Everyone gasped.
Neville muttered, "Seven?"
"Don't panic, everyone, there won't be seven dark lords. "There is some evidence that young Voldemort was resurrected a few years ago, and that he had some fights with the Dark Lord as we know him, and that the focus of their battles was on the Horcruxes, which I believe were destroyed by themselves, except for a few specific Horcruxes." And now all we have to deal with is the young Voldemort. β
Silver turned his head to Neville, "Pumpkin juice, I'm thirsty." β
"Yes, yes, yes. Neville said, "I still have a pot here." β
"Pour me a drink. Silver conjured a goblet. "Thank you, Neville. β
Taking a sip of pumpkin juice, Silver's dry mouth felt a little more comfortable, "I thought this was the case, but some recent discoveries have proved that I am still too naΓ―ve, and that young Voldemort may not be Voldemort." β
"What does that mean?" Qiu Zhang blinked, "I'm a little confused. β
"I mean, there's a part of him, probably Voldemort, but not all of Voldemort. Silver said inscrutablely. (To be continued.) )
