"Level 1 alert!"

"Level 1 alert!"

"There is a large amount of unidentified dark energy in the Cairngorms, all the Aurors are on their way!"

"Get ready for battle!"

……

Amid the shrill sirens, the atmosphere at the British Ministry of Magic was extremely tense.

Many of the Aurors looked grim, and the teams used their portkeys to explore the Cairngorms Mountains, where a large amount of dark energy was gushing out.

Soon, all the Aurors entered the gloomy mountains and began to advance in a swift and orderly manner.

Among the Aurors, there was a young Auror with pink hair who accidentally lost his way with the group and got lost in a complex mountainous environment.

Nymphadora Tonks is a recent graduate trainee Auror, and this is her first time participating in a large-scale operation, and she accidentally disconnects from the team in a hurry.

She tries to find her teammates, but gets lost in the rising fog and goes deeper and deeper into the dark mountains.

After walking aimlessly in the fog for a long time, just when Tonks's mood was extremely low, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and its silhouette loomed in the fog.

The young trainee Auror immediately stood on guard as the instructor had instructed him to do, and raised his wand.

"Who are you? Why is it here?! Tonks exclaimed.

The figure heard her voice and turned slowly.

As he moved, the fog in front of Tonks' eyes strangely dispersed, as if to make way for the figure to open a wide passageway.

This magical sight made Tonks's extreme nervousness eased a little.

By the time the figure approached her, all the fog had dispersed to either side. Behind the mist were two tall peaks, a huge, bright moon quietly embedded in the middle of the two peaks.

Under the silver moonlight, a man with long silver hair and a bewitching face stood in front of the bright moon.

His face looks like he is only in his twenties, but his deep eyes are precipitated with epic vicissitudes.

He spoke slowly and jerkily, as if he hadn't spoken in a long time:

"Hello, can you tell me what time it is?"

His voice turned from deep to bright, as if it had spanned thousands of years and reached the ears of the young Aurors.

Tonks's pink hair instantly turned red, and he stammered, "You...... Hello, it's almost one o'clock in the morning. ”

"I mean, the exact time now."

"...... exact time?" Tonks was stunned for a moment.

"I mean, what year, month, and day is it?"

"July 31, 1991."

Tonks looked stunned, not realizing what he had said.

"I see, thanks." The corners of the man's mouth curled slightly, and he walked towards the exit of the mountain.

It was only then that the young Auror intern remembered who he was and what he was tasked with.

"Sir, the Cairngorms are dangerous right now, please don't walk around!" She hurriedly followed, and took out her ID card from the Ministry of Magic, "I'm an intern Auror at the British Ministry of Magic, and I can keep you safe!" ”

Hearing Tonks's confident words, the silver-haired man's mouth curled into a playful smile and turned his head to look at her.

"Oh?" He asked with interest, "What's at stake here?" ”

"According to the detection of our Ministry of Magic, there is a large amount of dark energy in the Cairngorms Mountains, and there must be some evil dark magic creature about to be born." Tonks swore by it, "So be careful!" ”

"I see?" He seemed to be a little smiling, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.

"I'm really serious, sir!" Tonks said disgruntled, and her hair turned black.

The silver-haired man finally put away his smile, pointed ahead, and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but the exit of the mountain range is ahead, am I safe?" ”

Tonks realized that at some point, the two had arrived at the location where the Aurors had first entered the mountains.

"Huh?" She looked back at the intricacies of the mountain road in confusion, her expression glazed over, "How did you find the right path?" ”

The man smiled slightly, and was about to say something.

But then his eyes moved slightly, and he changed his words: "It's almost time, it's a pleasure to meet you today, this enthusiastic lady." ”

With a casual wave of his hand, he stepped out of the valley and disappeared into the night.

Tonks stared at the night ahead in a daze, his expression dazed.

At that moment, a sturdy wizard with long gray hair and seemingly scarred every inch of skin walked over. One of his wooden legs stomped on the ground and made a "thump" and "thump" sound, interrupting Tonks' thoughts.

"Tonks, have you forgotten all about the Auror training!" As soon as he saw the lost trainee Auror, he first breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to lecture him with a face, "You didn't even meet the most basic requirement of keeping up with the team during the march!" ”

"I'm sorry, Instructor Moody......" Tonks said curtly, "you know, my 'stealth and tracking' subject has never been very good, and I accidentally lost a large number of troops......

"For the sake of this, this is your first time on a mission, and the handling of emergencies is quite reasonable, so let's forget it this time." Instructor Moody's said in a gruff voice, "It's a wise choice to get separated from the group and return to the safe entrance. ”

Instructor Moody's...... Actually, I got lost before. Tonks bowed his head and said very honestly, "But in the valley I met a handsome man, and he brought me back here. ”

Hearing Tonks' explanation, Moody frowned.

"The people who appeared in the valley at this time couldn't think right." He said solemnly, "Maybe this burst of dark energy has something to do with this person!" ”

"Tonks, which way he's going, let's chase!"

However, the mysterious figure had long since disappeared into the darkness of the night, and could not be found.

……

The Aurors of the Ministry of Magic were looking for someone who was wandering leisurely, looking at the current landscape and scenery of Scotland with curiosity on their faces.

His name is Brad Dracula and he is a vampire who has lived for over a thousand years. Now he had been asleep for a hundred years, and he had just woken up.

In fact, Moody's judgment was not wrong, and this explosion of dark energy did have a lot to do with him.

Dracula has spent a hundred years in a deep sleep, and the dark energy in his body has already accumulated to an extremely strong level, and when he first woke up, he didn't notice it for a while, allowing it to escape a lot.

Because of this, his awakening attracted the attention of the Ministry of Magic.

However, Dracula didn't pay much attention to this matter, he casually sorted out the black and red robes that showed no signs of decay even after a hundred years of sleep, and took out a simple bronze mirror from his pocket.

The back of the bronze mirror is carved with a gilded phoenix relief, and a breath of vicissitudes emerges from the relief.

Dracula smiled nostalgically and chuckled in the mirror and spoke:

"Not dead yet, old fellow?"

"It's good, at least I don't have to sleep in a coffin for a century like some old thing." An old voice came from the mirror, and responded with a smile without any politeness.

"Old fellow, I haven't seen you in a hundred years, I didn't expect you to be a lot articulate." Dracula smiled.

"I'll sit with you for a while."

"What interesting things have happened in the past 100 years, tell me about them carefully......"
