Chapter 15: Horcruxes

The meeting was over, and Dumbledore kept Sirius and Lupin.

Then, Sirius briefly introduced the so-called "Voldemort" weakness that he had not just mentioned.

"Horcruxes?" Sirius frowned in confusion.

Dumbledore nodded, "Yes, Horcruxes, this is what Voldemort relied on to survive, and it is precisely because of the protection of Horcruxes that he has been able to survive after losing his body back then. ”

"If you want to defeat Voldemort, you need to destroy his Horcruxes completely!" Ning Yuan said.

"But what does this have to do with Sirius?" Lupin asked, puzzled.

Dumbledore wiped his glasses and said, "Voldemort has a Horcrux that is in Black's mansion at this time!" ”

Sirius' face was full of disgust at the mention of Black's house, "I wouldn't be surprised if there were Voldemort's Horcruxes in that dark place, my family would love to kiss Voldemort's feet." ”

Ning Yuan shook his head, he still knew about Sirius's ambivalence towards his family after reading the novel, Sirius didn't know his younger brother until he died in the novel, and the little Death Eater in his eyes was also a hero who was not inferior to him.

Subsequently, Dumbledore used the story in the novel as an excuse to tell Sirius about prophecy.

"No, it can't be true!" Sirius, who had been stunned since hearing the news of his brother's death, yelled and stumbled out of the bar, Lupin called Sirius, then said sorry to Dumbledore and Ning Yuan, and ran after Sirius.

Ning Yuan could see that Sirius was more sad about his brother's death.

"Professor, now that Peter Pettigrew has been imprisoned in Azkaban, what to do in the fourth year, no one will find him and help him resurrect, it's not good for us!" Ning Yuan actually didn't agree to release Sirius right now, but hoped to let Voldemort act according to the original trajectory and maintain the advantage of familiarity with the plot like he did in the first year.

But Dumbledore finally decided to overturn the case for Sirius, which was a little unacceptable in Ning Yuan's opinion, so is it still meaningful to act in front of Voldemort in the past year?

"I know Voldemort, and Peter is not the only one who can bring Voldemort back to life, and since we all know that Voldemort will flee to Albania after losing Quirrell's flesh, it will not be difficult for another faithful servant to find him." These were Dumbledore's words at the time.

During this time, Ning Yuan also had a lot of speculation, "So Professor, is your choice Professor Snape or Little Crouch, who is now locked up at home by his father?" ”

"However, I think the most suitable one should be Crouch Jr.!"

Dumbledore nodded, confirming his thoughts.

……

The next day, Sirius and Lupin visited Dumbledore and Ning Yuan.

"That's it!" The golden locket, held in a piece of cloth, was tossed by Sirius to the table between them.

Sirius looked even more haggard than when he was released from prison, his gray eyes were covered with bright red bloodshots, and even Lupin's face was tired.

"Professor, we learned yesterday from a house-elf at 12 Grimmauld Place, Sirius is very sad!" Lupin explained. "If I hadn't stopped him at the time, he'd probably gone to the seaside cave where Voldemort hid his Horcruxes by now."

"Sirius, we're not going to let the corpse of our hero stay there forever." Dumbledore didn't look at the Horcruxes on the table, comforting.

"I know, I'm an unqualified brother, if I had cared for him in the first place, Regulus wouldn't have died!" Sirius's voice was low, without his usual flying.

"It's not your fault, Sirius!" Lupin persuaded.

Sirius let out a forced smile, "You don't have to comfort me, Remus!" All my bastard brother wants to do now is bring back Regulus's body, and then drive the Voldemort who killed my brother to hell once and for all. ”

"Sirius......" Remus sighed, not knowing what to say.

"Rest assured, we will get justice for Regulus, for Jaime, for Lily, and for many others who died because of Voldemort's misdeeds." Ning Yuan patted Sirius on the shoulder.

"So, now the Horcruxes we have found have a crown and a locket Professor!" Looking at the delicate locket on the table, Ning Yuan said thoughtfully, "I wonder if there is good news about Nick's crown there?" ”

Dumbledore shook his head, "Nick doesn't have a good way to deal with the soul tablets inside without harming Ravenclaw's crown itself, so if you can't find a solution in the end, you can only follow the original method." ”

Ning Yuan nodded knowingly, he knew what Dumbledore meant, if even the soul pieces in the items could not destroy the soul pieces without harming the items, then let alone Harry, a big living person.

If he really can't find a way, then the soul piece on Harry's head can only be solved by Voldemort himself according to the method of the original book.

Sirius and Lupin didn't know about the dumb riddle that Dumbledore and Ning Yuan were playing, but the Ravenclaw crown still surprised the two of them a little, "Ravenclaw's crown?" ”

"Yes, another Horcrux hidden by Voldemort in a secret room at Hogwarts is the crown of infinite wisdom in Ravenclaw legend!" Dumbledore explained.

"And what is this?" Sirius pointed to the Slytherin-style locket on the table.

"That's right, the same Slytherin relic, as I know now, the relics of the Big Four, the gold cup was also made into a Horcrux and hidden somewhere, except for the Gryffindor's sword Voldemort did not get it." Dumbledore looked at the locket with regret.

As the four great wizards who founded Hogwarts, even if Slytherin himself did not have a good reputation, it could not erase his contribution to Hogwarts, and their relics were a precious treasure for every house.

Dumbledore then diverted the topic of Horcruxes, and the group began to discuss the next exploration of Voldemort's secret caves.

"Snape is going too?" When it comes to the entourage, Sirius is very unhappy with Snape's appearance.

Remus could only persuade in the end: "Sirius, this is not the time to be rash, none of us know what evil is there, Snape is a master of potions, very helpful for our actions." ”

In order for his brother's body and soul to rest in peace, Sirius finally agreed to go with Snape.

However, before that, everyone also needs to be fully prepared, and the place that can be used by Voldemort to hide Horcruxes must be the place he values the most, so Sirius is asked to rest for a day, otherwise something may happen to him in his current state.

Even the house-elves, in addition to Sasha, Dumbledore brought a few more, so that they could hide in the shadows at any time.

In addition to helping Sirius find Regulus's body, Dumbledore and Ning Yuan also wanted to remove the army of Yin corpses inside, this magical version of the zombie was too much of a threat to ordinary wizards.

Therefore, Dumbledore and Ning Yuan also needed to make more preparations, hoping to solve that demon cave at once and leave no traces.

On the other hand, Kingsley, Mr. Weasley also began to woo enlightened colleagues in the Ministry of Magic who were worthy of being wooed, and fully prepared for the inevitable war in the future.

At least the Ministry of Magic can't be allowed to drag its feet in this war.

Some of the other members of the Order of the Phoenix did not want Voldemort to succeed, and began to do what they could according to Dumbledore's plan.

The entire Order of the Phoenix organization began to run high without being known to outsiders.
