Chapter Thirty-Nine: A Man Worse Than Voldemort!
The exams in the lower grades of Hogwarts have always been relatively lenient, and everyone has done well.
But Hermione still cried, her grades in divination class were very bad, which Zhang Hao had expected a long time ago.
But he didn't count that Hermione would put the blame for the matter on him.
"Why didn't you persuade me to give up my divination class earlier?" Hermione said unreasonably, "If you had persuaded me earlier, I wouldn't have scored so low." You know what? Of all the people, I was the only one who got the lowest grade in divination!"
Zhang Hao cried and laughed and said, "Come on, people have to do what they can, you obviously don't like divination classes, but you still insist on taking them, can this be blamed on me?" Hermione cutie, although you are a girl, I can't get used to you!"
"Hmph!" Hermione stuck out her tongue and said proudly, "Straight man cancer!
Zhang Hao's face suddenly turned black like the bottom of a pot, he regretted that he led the trend and let words that should not appear in this era appear!
What a self-inflicted consequence!
......
It's another year's end-of-year party, and the Gryffindor children are especially happy.
This year, they have a good chance of winning the House Cup thanks to their excellent performance in Quidditch matches.
Although the professors have not yet appeared, and the House Cup has not yet been announced, judging from the scoring hourglass, Gryffindor is sure to win.
There haven't been many major events this year, and even if there are pluses, they can't make up for that big gap.
Although they knew that the Academy Cup was very watery this time, it did not prevent them from being happy.
In contrast to Gryffindor, this year's Slytherin House was a bit dead.
The two houses have been fighting to the death every year for the House Cup, and this year's defeat has made the Slytherin side particularly depressed.
Many people looked at Zhang Hao with resentment - this group of incompetent people blamed him for Slytherin's failure.
I have to say that some people are so brainstormed that no matter how much education they have, they can't get them enlightened.
Zhang Hao believes that it is pig's brains that blame him for the defeat of Slytherin.
They are hopeless!
It's a good thing his friends didn't-
Pansy heard some bad remarks and reprimanded him sharply, "We can't always rely on one person, most of you haven't made any effort in the fight for the House Cup, what right do you have to blame someone for inaction? If you weren't a waste, we could win the House Cup without anyone." It's a pity, you guys are really rubbish!!"
There was silence on the Slytherin table, and even the Gryffindor next door was affected.
Pansy, a little girl, usually doesn't talk much, and most of the time she does what she likes.
It will appear tsundere when communicating with people you don't know, but it won't be like you are now, and you won't berate others in public like you are now.
So her outburst today is really surprising, and many people didn't expect her to defend Zhang Hao like this.
Because of this, the scene was very embarrassing.
Fortunately, the professors showed up in the auditorium in time to break the atmosphere.
They spoke one by one, and at the end Dumbledore gave some summary.
Old Deng Tou added some points to the various houses as usual, and the House Cup fell to Gryffindor without accident.
Their cheers were even louder, a kind of heartfelt joy for the salted fish to turn over.
Zhang Hao smiled disdainfully, secretly mocking them for not seeing the world.
Isn't it just a House Cup?
"If I want it, none of you can take it away!"
Old Deng Tou is also eccentric, Zhang Hao has actually done a lot of great things this year, just creating the spell of a blizzard, it is not too much to add a hundred points to him - this is an act that benefits the entire magic world!
Well, if you look at it another way - from a peaceful point of view, it really doesn't seem like a good thing to add to a destructive spell.
Zhang Hao shook his head absently and began to plan for the new holiday.
There is no need to go back to Dongsheng Guguo for the time being, so continue to study the potion?
After a long period of research, he has shortened the production cycle of the elixir to two months.
This means that he can finally successfully prepare the elixir without affecting his studies.
There is no doubt that the elixir will also be the treasure of the Ritian Pharmacy.
"So be it! I hope the holidays are enjoyable and don't cause any more trouble. β
After a short farewell, everyone embarked on their own way home.
This holiday, Zhang Hao didn't invite anyone to the castle, because refining the elixir could not be lost.
Penelope is going to stay at Castle Collinsville this holiday, and the beautiful female secretary is pursued by Patsy, but after comparing Patcy with Zhang Hao for a long time, she finds that Patsy is really naΓ―ve and terrible, and they are not suitable for dating at all.
The couple who was supposed to fall in love blew it like this, it was really a lifetime mistake when I saw Zhang Hao!
Penelope also works in a pharmacy during the holidays, so it would be more convenient to stay at Castle in Collinsville.
Zhang Hao also needs a pair of eyes and ears, and it is impossible for him to ignore the magic world.
Because of the urgency of time, he began to boil the elixir on the first day he returned to the castle.
The materials are very complete, and in the past days, the elves have not stopped searching for medicinal herbs.
This is the task given to them by Zhang Hao, a long-term task.
Whenever the elves had free time, they would shout at them to do it together.
Zhang Hao felt that there was not enough manpower, so he went to the Ministry of Magic to claim a batch of house-elves.
He is very interested in this kind of small thing, they can be used to form a magic army at a critical moment, and it will definitely come in handy in the future.
After a few days, the preparation of the elixir entered a period of calm.
At this time, there was finally no need to focus on watching, Zhang Hao was leisurely drinking afternoon tea while cultivating a relationship with Lilith.
Actually, this is a difficult thing to do, because the beautiful witch doesn't have oil and salt, and there are really not many things they can communicate.
"I said, can you look at me more?" Zhang Hao complained, "We are a legal couple, can't you be more enthusiastic about me?"
"Huh...... Can you fulfill your husband's obligations?" Lilith glanced vaguely at a certain part of Zhang Hao's body, and said disdainfully, "Do you dare?"
"Ahem!" Zhang Hao swallowed his saliva and said, "Let's talk about the relationship first, and then talk about the obligation when the relationship is in place, okay?"
To be honest, there are some things he really doesn't dare to do.
This was a stunning beauty with half succubus blood, and once he started, he wasn't sure he could control himself.
It's really possible that X will die at that time!
Zhang Hao doesn't remember how many times he has returned, his emotional road is very bumpy!
......
July 31st, Harry Potter's birthday.
Zhang Hao thought about it for a while, and asked the owl Carl to send a large cake and a summoning altar.
This summoning altar is a magic item that he has carefully crafted, and as long as you recite the corresponding incantation, you can use this summoning altar to get in touch with other people who hold the altar.
If you can apparition, you can also locate it through the altar, so that everyone can gather much easier.
At present, Zhang Hao has only made one of this kind of altar, and he gave it to Harry as a gift for fear that he would be isolated in some trouble.
Now that the plot is completely out of control, Harry will be very dangerous if Voldemort encounters another Death Eater and still activates the resurrection plan.
Who knows if Voldemort will play tricks on the Goblet of Fire like in the original books?
As a friend, Zhang Hao couldn't sit back and watch Harry encounter danger, let alone watch Voldemort come back to life.
Therefore, it is necessary for him to come at a critical moment and deal a fatal blow to Voldemort's gang.
But his concern was, with Harry's stupidity, would he be able to summon him at a critical moment?
All right!
Everything that needs to be done has been done, and then it's up to providence.
If Harry couldn't remember the critical moment, he couldn't blame Zhang Hao.
After this incident, Zhang Hao became addicted to alchemy again.
Until one day, Penelope brought back a shocking news.
"Boss, there is a small town in Albania where there was a mass massacre. The female secretary said in horror, "There's a Muggle village, and everyone has been killed!" and a terrible altar was left with the blood of the villagers...... The blood of all the villagers has been drained - this must be some kind of terrible ritual!"
Zhang Hao was also taken aback when he heard the news, all the villagers in one village were killed - this is indeed shocking enough!
You must know that this is an era of peace, not an era of war, where human life is like a mustard!
Even in the war years, there were few such tragedies!
It's not enough to kill people, but to drain everyone's blood and pour it on the altar?
I've never heard of anything like this before, and no matter how mad a Muggle bandit is, there's no way he's going to do it, right?
Draining a person's blood is already difficult, and it's even harder to do without magic!
"Is the Ministry of Magic investigating this?" Zhang Hao asked solemnly, "What did they find?"
Albania is far from Ingrande, where magic is not very powerful, and since Penelope knows about it, it means that it has caused an uproar in the wizarding world.
Therefore, it was inevitable that the International Federation of Magic would participate in the investigation, and even the old-fashioned wizards would cooperate with the local Muggle authorities in the investigation.
After all, it was all Muggles who died, and it was impossible for the local Muggle government not to pay attention to so many strange deaths.
The Ministry of Magic of Ingrid dominates the Europa Wizarding world, so it is likely that this matter will be handled by the Ministry of Magic of Ingrande.
"Nothing has been found!" Penelope shook his head, "It's terrible! The Ministry of Magic has not had any clues so far, they only say that there are dark wizards who are causing trouble, and nothing else has been revealed. β
Zhang Hao touched his chin and thought suspiciously, "Voldemort is also in Albania, but he only has a wisp of remnant soul left, so he shouldn't be able to make such a big case, right?"
Voldemort in the original book was weak, and although he was called the Dark Lord, it is difficult to say whether there were a hundred people he killed.
Albania is sparsely populated, but the total population of a village must be more than a thousand, right?
This is the real world, without Aunt Luo's restrictions, with Voldemort's demon king mentality, it's hard to say that he won't do such a thing as slaughtering a village.
Now the question is, how can he take on such a big case, and who is around him to help him?
Peter Pettigrew has already been caught!
Without that rat, in Voldemort's state, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to hurt anyone.
Zhang Hao's skull hurts a little, it's really a gourd floating scoop!
He took out his Ravenclaw crown and took a hard breath.
A black, translucent phantom was torn out of Ravenclaw's crown by him and sucked into the soul realm.
This is Voldemort's soul fragment, and it won't be long before the soul realm will completely disintegrate.
"I'm not sure, but I don't believe there is such a coincidence. Zhang Hao muttered, "Whether you did it or not, I will treat it as if you did it." Now that you've already made the move, I don't need to keep the fragments of your soul. β
The Ravenclaw Crown is one of the easiest Horcruxes to destroy, and if it falls into the hands of someone else, it may have to be destroyed along with the Crown.
But Zhang Hao is now a master of playing with souls, and it is easy to deal with just one soul fragment.
He didn't hide it from Penelope, so the female secretary was very curious.
"Boss, what are you doing? Is this the Ravenclaw crown?" Penelope asked apprehensively, "I've seen it in a book, but why does it give me such a wicked feeling?"
Zhang Hao said casually, "This is indeed the crown of Ravenclaw, it has been defiled by the mysterious man." Do you know why the mystery man is so powerful?"
At this point, the more you hide something, the more likely it is to lead to unknown dangers.
Penelope is his own person, and Zhang Hao feels the need to let her know some inside information.
In this way, she can also be on guard when she encounters something weird.
"Something to do with defiling the Ravenclaw crown?" Penelope guessed, "Did he perform some special ritual?"
"You're right, it's not just this crown. Zhang Hao said in a deep voice, "As far as I guess, the Slytherin locket and the Hufflepuff gold cup were not spared. Voldemort crafted them into Horcruxes, a terrifying magical prop. β
Penelope couldn't help but shake when he heard Voldemort's name.
She said with palpitations, "You mean, the mysterious man is not dead yet?"
Zhang Hao shook his head, nodded again, and chuckled, "He's dead, but not completely." So there is hope of resurrection - as long as there is a Horcrux left, there is hope that he will be resurrected. β
"You just destroyed a Horcrux?" Penelope forced a smile, "which means you're already on him?"
"Hehe, what are you worried about?" Zhang Hao stared at Penelope and said playfully, "Afraid that you will be implicated?"
Penelope was silent, she never thought that the Dark Lord of decades ago would be so close to her.
After a long time, she smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I'm afraid of being implicated, it's just that it's a little difficult to accept for a while." I'm just an ordinary wizard after all, aren't I?"
Zhang Hao nodded in understanding and comforted, "Don't worry, Voldemort is not so scary." In terms of scary, he is not as good as me. To be scared doesn't have to be killed, is it?"
"It's true!" Penelope thought for a moment, feeling that some of the things Zhang Hao had done seemed even more terrifying.
For example, the acquisition of the Golden Galleon in the hands of wizards.
If this plan continues, it may not be able to control the entire wizarding world in the future.
From this point of view, the little man in front of him is much more powerful than Voldemort.
He is terrible and admirable at the same time!
