Chapter 42: A Cup for Freedom, a Cup for Death!

Corvinus Gaunt, a Slytherin descendant, William is no stranger to it, and it can even be said that he has been paying attention to it for a long time.

The first time he saw the name, it was related to Dumbledore.

In his first year, he wanted to make a Hogwarts map.

The Headmaster recommended the seven-volume Hogwarts Structural Atlas.

William was idle, but he did flip through it and saw it inside:

In the 18th century, Corvinus Gaunt led the construction of the Hogwarts pipeline system.

He didn't pay much attention to this information at the time, until little Tom in the diary began to stir up the storm.

William needed to find the location of the secret room.

And in the secret passage where there is the dungeon of the Big Four, there is the skin of the basilisk.

Following the direction of the peeling, William spotted the basilisk moving in the pipes.

Then he remembered Corvinus Gaunt.

Corvinus apparently discovered the Chamber of Secrets, and only then used a complex plumbing system to completely hide the basilisk from being found by others.

In other words, the contents of the Chamber of Secrets where Slytherin's notes were kept, and this old Gaunt discovered them before Tom Jr.

The strange thing is that he obviously found these things, and he also deliberately hid the secret room, but did not take the basilisk and notes with him.

Instead, he stayed in those two hundred years, and was finally discovered by Little Tom.

This man was strange at every turn, and William began to deliberately investigate Corvinus Gaunt.

In the book "The Glory of Historyβ€”(Pure-Blood Family)", he found Corvinus Gaunt's entry, which was only a few simple sentences:

Corvinus Gaunt disobeyed the family's orders, did not marry his cousin, and eloped with a girl named Barburin.

The two had a daughter, who died at an early age.

Corvinus Gaunt ended up missing in the "City of Seven Hills".

Now with Dumbledore's intelligence, this Gaunt followed Slytherin's footsteps earlier than Tom Jr.

He even released the octopus, so much so that from then on, there was a North Sea Monster.

William felt enveloped in a heavy fog, and he wondered, "Why did he do this?" ”

"Same purpose as Grindelwald." Dumbledore suddenly became sentimental and looked at the sky with his hands in his hands, "Find the Grim Reaper." ”

"But Nicol said that if you want to find death, you have to set out as the three brothers.

Either they are related by blood, or they are like brothers, and in the end, only one person will survive. ”

William frowned and said:

"But Gaunt and Grindelwald are both alone."

"The North Sea Monster was sent by the Grim Reaper, and with its power, you can also see the Grim Reaper if you swim against the current.

This process is extremely difficult and full of uncertainties. ”

Dumbledore looked a little gloomy.

Back then, when he and Grindelwald were together, he made a pilgrimage to find the Deathly Hallows on the one hand and the prehistoric mysteries on the other.

The two also made a plan on how to find the Grim Reaper.

Later, after the death of his sister Ariana, Dumbledore broke with Grindelwald and abandoned all previous plans.

But Dumbledore had always wanted to resurrect his sister, and while he was constantly searching for the Resurrection Stone, he also wanted to find the Grim Reaper.

He couldn't find the Grim Reaper like the three brothers, but he investigated the North Sea Monster.

Over the years, I have also searched in the North Sea, but I have never found the Kraken.

Unexpectedly, it suddenly appeared and began to attack the owner of the Deathly Hallows.

Grindelwald also took the opportunity to leave, choosing to use it to fulfill the promise of the year.

William looked into Dumbledore's eyes and said softly, "Professor, why do you know so much about Gaunt?" ”

Dumbledore's knowledge of Grindelwald was understandable, but Gaunt two hundred years ago, he shouldn't have been so sure.

Dumbledore had always been cautious in his choice of words, and what he had just guessed would definitely be very tactful.

"What others told me, I made an agreement with her, and no matter how much detail I had about her and her, I couldn't say anything." Dumbledore shook his head.

William, who was lost in thought, suddenly spoke up:

"Professor, what is the relationship between Corvinus Gunt and Professor Barbla?"

Barbura knew about the Ravenclaw Bronze Ring, and even after William entered the time loop, she still had memories.

The reason was the lapis lazuli amulet around her neck - the motif on it was a snake wrapped around a scepter.

Behind the amulet, there is also a gorgeous, serpentine S.

This was left by Slytherin and was dedicated to the Ravenclaw ring.

Professor Babling, an older baby and vampire, seems to be a descendant of Slytherin, so it is possible that he has something to do with Gaunt.

Hearing William's words, Dumbledore was surprised for the second time today, and he sighed slightly:

"William, you're really smart, but I still can't say. You can ask her yourself.

If it were you, she would definitely tell you. She also asked me the other day when she was going to let you go to the United States. ”

William quickly shook his head.

Go to the United States to fart, and when you meet, maybe you want him to kill people again.

Babuling, a woman with a bad personality, is still not good in this life.

Dumbledore walked slowly to the river, looked at the Danube, and sighed after a long silence.

Back then, the two wanted to find the Grim Reaper, but they weren't looking for the Deathly Hallows.

History is like a river, rolling and passing, but there is always the shadow of death behind it.

With a pair of invisible hands, he manipulated those powerful wizards.

Whether it's sending the Deathly Hallows, or killing the owner...... No one knows what the Grim Reaper wants to do.

Dumbledore and Grindelwald were adamant that death would be the last obstacle to their plans.

They are looking for death, but only for ...... It's just god-killing.

That's all.

After the split that summer, Dumbledore had completely extinguished the idea, but Grindelwald still remembered it.

The old man suddenly stretched out one hand to hold the cup, and between his five fingers there was a cup made of crystal clear river water, and he said aloud:

"A glass of freedom,

A toast to death!

Old friends go all the way! ”

……

……

A black battered boat, speeding down the river.

Both sides are full of snow-capped mountains, this beach is extremely turbulent, the high mountains on both sides of the river are facing each other, the cliffs are steep, the narrowest part of the water surface is only 50 meters, and the widest part is 100 meters.

Sirius was wrapped in a thick robe, and he felt very cold without autumn pants.

He stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the Durmstrang students who seemed to be so adapted, and wondered.

Don't these people freeze their feet?

No, there has always been this saying in the UK:

Great Britain is colder, even colder than Northern Europe.

Because England is wet and cold, and Northern Europe is dry and cold.

One is a magic attack and one is a physical attack.

Sirius had always thought that this sentence was true, and now that he came to the Alps at the end of the Rhine, feeling the high-altitude snow-capped mountains, he just wanted to say:

God, England is colder than Northern Europe!

Can minus two degrees be colder than minus twenty or thirty degrees?

Why don't you say that Britain is colder than the Arctic?

Why is Britain wet and cold, it just shows that it is not cold enough, and the moisture in the air has not condensed!

Fortunately, migratory birds do not read newspapers, otherwise they would not leave the north in winter.

It's so cold in the Alps, so how cold does Northern Europe have to be?

Just as Sirius was worried about his future life, the roar of a beast was suddenly heard in the distance.

It seems that someone is fighting.

"There's an avalanche!" Someone shouted in horror.

Sirius looked up, and a large amount of snow rolled down, and the river quickly froze, and the entire ship was frozen.
