Destruction is new life.

"What the hell is going on!"

Miranda rubbed her chest and looked at the young man not far away, her face full of incomprehension.

She could see the snake scales looming, but she didn't understand what they were. She couldn't figure out what was going on with this magic that could be synonymous with horror.

"Because the snake wood is awakened."

A somewhat chilly voice rang in Miranda's ears.

Both Miranda and Rove looked in that direction. There was some wariness on Rove's face. And the look on Miranda's face when she saw each other was even more embarrassed.

"Mr. Stewart."

Miranda bowed to the somewhat gloomy-looking young man.

The young man ignored Miranda, he glanced at Rove on the side, and then said, "I told you before that if you call the people of the Gaunt family, nothing will necessarily happen. You can wait a little while I find out if it will help the snake wood recover. As a result, you still didn't wait for my reply to act. ”

Miranda's expression was somewhat embarrassed, not to mention anything else, judging from the current situation, what Stewart said at that time may really have some truth.

But that doesn't mean Stewart didn't have anything else in mind. After all, Luke's arrival, as long as he really wants it, then that right is Luke's.

Of course, Stewart can stop it, but it depends on whether he has the heart to stop it.

From the current point of view, Stewart's attitude is quite ambiguous, neither Eggelbert nor Luke can see what kind of position the young man in front of him is.

"Snake wood will be activated when facing the true descendants of the Gaunt family, and then a test will be activated."

Stewart's tone was still as gloomy. Rove guessed that it might be his calmness.

"Once you pass this test, you'll be able to get your hands on that Slytherin's wand. Of course, this also means that the snake wood ......"

He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood the meaning of the unfinished business.

Miranda's eyes were a little desperate at first, but somehow she felt that something was wrong.

Rove, on the other hand, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looking quite embarrassed.

Now the question arises, if the reward is taken away in advance, then ......

………………

"Hello, little guy of the Gaunt family, I'm Yinso Sayr, and my mother is a member of the Gaunt family."

A gentle-looking, less aggressive-looking gentle lady sat on a branch of a serpentine tree and looked at Luke below.

"It's clear to me that Slytherin's wand has always been one of the Gaunt's treasures. So in the second half of my life, I always felt guilty about the choices I made back then. ”

Regret was written all over her face.

"But I can't just hand my wand back to the Gaunts. Because I need it. And I can't go back to the UK either. Because the Gaunt family is still wanted by me, and is even ready to kill me at any time. ”

"So I'm not going to just give them back the wand. So I created this test, and if you can pass my test, you will be able to get this ...... back."

Luke listened to the gentle voice of Yinso Thur and politely pulled Slytherin's wand out of his sleeve.

As a result, the expression on Yin Suo Sell's face became extremely exciting, and the words he was about to say were blocked in his throat.

This......

Yin Suo...... Ancestors? Forget it, let's call it first. Luke struggled with this title for a while, and then said firmly: "You have to understand that if we don't get this thing back, we just don't want to get it back for the time being." ”

Luke sounded crazy, and the arrogance of such a light description reminded Yin Suo of his aunt. This goes some way to suggesting that Luke is indeed a member of the Gaunt family. After all, such arrogance is too distinctive.

But when such arrogance is paired with convincing evidence, it is extraordinarily confident. It also makes people not have the courage to refute and confront.

"You ...... Can you always get this wand back? ”

Yin Suo Sayr still said in disbelief. Because it doesn't make sense at all, if it can really be taken back so easily, then why did it back then......

"It can be said that it is us, or it can be said that it is not us. This is a special summoning technique that this one has mastered. The other one doesn't know, but it's normal. ”

Luke casually told another lie. How could Slytherin's wand be so easily planted with a summoning spell?

But if the facts are in front of you, even if you have doubts, you can't say anything.

"So...... There's no need for me to take your test. ”

Luke didn't look at Yinso Cell's body either, but at Serpentwood, which was close to decay.

"I ask, is the snake wood itself a conglomeration of the free magic absorbed by the Slytherin wand?"

Luke actually cares. After all, he had already felt that his snake transformation was all the energy he had absorbed from this snake tree. But it also led him to another question. After all, the magic released by the snake wood now is really the difference between the sea and the well compared to the magic he used at that time.

How could the magic power that the snake wood had accumulated for hundreds of years be depleted because of Luke's several uses, and even affect its own vitality?

"Yes, most of this magic power is stored in the wand in your hand."

Yin Suo Ther's memory looked at the active wand in front of him, and said in a somewhat complicated tone, "I didn't let this wand awaken to such an extent back then. ”

"Maybe we're more compatible." Luke smiled and put away his wand, then asked Yinso Thor with a serious face, "Is there anything I can do to keep the snakewood?" It has been adopted as a symbol of Yinfermorny. I don't really care about it, mainly because if it withers after I come, maybe I'll face some unnecessary trouble. ”

Hearing this, Yin Suo Sail shook his head helplessly: "It really has the demeanor of the Gaunt family." This attitude of only speaking from my own perspective is really familiar and annoying to me. ”

Luke didn't respond, and it didn't make any sense to respond to this kind of topic. After all, it doesn't make sense for him to hate Yin Suo Sayre or not. Today, I came over to absorb all the remaining magic power of the snake wood, reducing the loss caused by the ocean, and I have already made a lot of money. Even if it really hurts the group of people who are really evil, it doesn't matter.

His basic plate is not here, even if his crossing dragon starts to make waves, as long as he is sure that he can return safely, then there is no problem at all. Unfortunately, with Dumbledore by his side, Luke really didn't worry about whether he would die in the United States.

"If you want them to be less serious, then the absorption of magic is here."

Yin Suo Sail glanced at the almost shrunken snake magic barrier and said, "I condensed the rest of the magic into a living snake wood branch that can continue to grow. ”

"A new snake tree will grow on the withered body of the old snake tree. And will become another towering tree, becoming the representative of Yin Famorny. ”

Yinso Sayr looked at Luke, "Take it as my request." ”

Luke bowed his head, bowed, and said politely to Yinso Sayr, "As you wish." ”

Inso Sayll stood up on the branch, and bowed to Luke in a rather quaint manner.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Gilbert had a cloudy look on his face.

In the eyes of others, this is full of poetry and even epic pictures, but it makes him feel tired in his heart, accompanied by bursts of coldness.

The withering of the snake wood is a foregone conclusion, he is destined to be besieged, and this is not yet the position of the hot headmaster Yin Famorny, so he will be handed over.

He didn't know what the two men in the serpentine barrier were talking about, but he knew that now, if he didn't think about it, he might really be a target.

"I think, Professor Dumbledore, your teaching makes a lot of sense."

Gilbert said in a calm tone, "Maybe I really shouldn't just focus on the snake wood. ”

Dumbledore nodded, but didn't look relieved. Instead, he glanced at Gilbert meaningfully. He always felt that what Gilbert said did not match his original intention.

It's just that he doesn't know what Gilbert means now, so he can't tell him anything more.

"Very wise, Professor Gilbert."

Dumbledore said.

………………

The snake wood gradually withered, and Miranda's heart gradually became desperate. I knew they really shouldn't have believed Morian's words. If Luke Gaunt hadn't been brought in, Snake might have lasted longer, giving them some chance to find a solution. But now......

Without. Nothing.

"And a green branch."

Rove looked at the scene in front of him and said with some confusion. Miranda hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, in the lower position, there was a thicker branch, which was still verdant and green, even more verdant than before, and looked full of upgrades.

After Miranda's shocked expression, Stewart raised an eyebrow, a hatred in his eyes, but he was quickly restrained.

"Obviously, they left the 'seeds'. In a sense, Luke Gaunt has fulfilled his promise to you. He saved the snake wood. Although this is a snake tree that takes a long time to grow. ”

But apparently, such an ending is enough to satisfy some people.

At the very least, it won't put Gilbert under the most pressure.

And that's a good thing. Although it can only be said that it is a good thing that is not satisfactory.

……………………

"Thank you for your efforts, Mr. Gaunt, you have left a spark for our Serpentine, that is, a future worth looking forward to."

Gilbert shook Luke's hand sincerely. He was genuinely relieved. Again, in the current situation, he at least has some room to turn around, rather than being really forced into a dead end. But even then, he had to face a daunting storm.

But at least it's not hopeless, and it's not necessarily the worst-case option.

"You don't have to feel anything about me, Headmaster Eggerbert." Luke looked incredibly honest with a frank face, "I've taken back what belongs to me, and the snake tree that will grow even bigger on its original body is what I should make to compensate." ”

He didn't say exactly what he got back, but everyone knew what he was talking about.

After backing down with Agierbert, Luke looked at Stewart, who was standing quietly on the side, not knowing what to think.

"Mr. Stewart, what are you here for?"

Stewart heard Luke call his name, raised his head, and said with a smile: "Just call me Pat, Luke, no matter what others say, it can't change the blood connection between the two of us." ”

Luke's eyes narrowed, not responding to the remark. After all, this pit is cleverly dug. Whether he admits it or not, it means choosing sides, so it's better not to say anything.

"I guess Lord Tripcard asked you to invite me to a banquet as a representative."

Luke said with a smile on his face.

Pat Stewart didn't say anything more, he nodded and said, "Lord Tripcard should come by himself." After all, yesterday his subordinates were really very rude. However, he has to coordinate tonight's banquet, and he has prepared a grand dinner for you as an apology, and it just so happens that I have come to see Principal Gilbert today, and I will be the mouthpiece when I know that you are also coming to visit Falmorny today. ”

He laughed, like he was joking, but Luke really felt that Stuart was just feeling humiliated.

"No problem, I have no reason to refuse such a banquet. And it wasn't just Lord Tripcard's subordinates who were rude yesterday, I also lost the proper etiquette, and I will sincerely apologize to Lord Tripcard tonight. ”

With a polite smile on his face, Luke looks sincere but distant.

Newt frowned as he watched the exchange between the two, he poked Dumbledore on the shoulder, and then asked, "Will I also have such social pressure when I go back to England?" ”

He is a social phobia, if he wants to go to some social occasions, I am afraid that it will be more uncomfortable than death. But there are some invitations that are simply impossible to refuse.

Dumbledore shook his head, raised his hand and patted Newt's arm to comfort him:

"Don't worry, you won't have such a top nobleman invited."

Newt didn't feel like a good thing to say.

This means that there are not so many rules and constraints, and it is not so unacceptable. If you come back to the UK, you will be invited by academics. I don't think you're too uncomfortable with this environment. ”

Newt nodded with a sigh of relief.

"And this banquet tonight, are you going?"

"Of course, even if I don't want to go, Luke will definitely pull me along. After all, without me, he can't cause trouble recklessly. Not to mention...... I'm also very similar to looking at the luxury of the 'nouveau riche' in the mouths of the British aristocracy. ”

He still remembers that when those guys talk about the word luxury, they still have a little sour smell after all.
