Chapter 125: The Deathly Hallows
In the dark corridors, countless corpses are piled up.
Illuminated by the wand's bright light, hundreds of unfocused eyes reflected strange colors, as if they were staring straight in one direction.
In fact, they're really staring in one direction.
The cold wind in the distance was whistling, like the wailing of evil spirits, and the ground was full of ghosts, and the shadows were twisted and overlapped, bringing a cold atmosphere to the surroundings all the time.
As long as you stand here, it is as if you are surrounded by an army of corpses, with cold and dry corpses on the left, and cold and dry corpses on the right, even above your head......
Ranko was amazed and pointed his wand in the direction above his head.
The ceiling of corpses stacked on top of each other was like an arhat, and each corpse, each with its eyes, stared straight down.
Ranko tried to walk forward, and found that the eyes of the corpses were indeed aimed at him, and they would immediately look at them wherever they went.
Obviously, there has been no movement until now, just like a sculpture, but this atmosphere alone can give people great psychological pressure.
It's not Durmstrong, but it's magically blocked, and it can't be used to teleport.
There is no way to escape, and under the gaze of those eyes, any wizard who has almost the ability to bear it will probably be scared to death if he touches it.
Ranko felt good, he had seen a scene more terrifying than this, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
He was even in the mood to walk over to one of the rather well-preserved corpses that looked like a witch and reached out and touched its face.
It feels slightly cool to the touch, but the elasticity is still the same.
The craftsmanship of manufacturing can be described as quite sophisticated. Professor Malfoy silently lamented Grindelwald's talent.
Although this talent is really cruel.
Finding no magic in the corridor other than the Yin Corpses, Ranko picked up the ring in his hand and put it away when he saw that the Yin Corpses were unmoved.
After waiting for a moment, the Yin corpses around him remained motionless after he put away the ring as the 'key', and Ranko nodded and walked forward towards what seemed to be an endless end.
"Once you've found the right place through the ring, you'll come across a door that requires the correct code to open, enter it, or crack the code, and you'll end up in this hallway full of corpses."
As he walked, Ranko pulled out a palm-sized book from his pocket.
He flipped through the book at random, and threw out a giant rat that screamed, like a groundhog, but with a tail as long as his arm, and the surrounding corpses instantly moved.
Before they could do anything, Ranko cast a spell on the marmot-like thing he had pulled out, throwing it back without hesitation.
Sure enough, those yin corpses no longer stared at him alone, and their countless hands in the depths tore them to shreds in a matter of seconds at the screams of the 'groundhogs'.
The corridor fell silent again, and Ranko reached out, and the ring returned to his hand intact.
"The Yin Corps actively attacks living creatures and is not so sensitive to others. The ring does not serve as a protective body, and its effectiveness is currently limited to access to the third floor of the library. β
Grindelwald didn't plan to give the things here to anyone at that time, and even if the saints wanted to get them now, the Yin corpses here would not show the slightest mercy because they were Grindelwald's men.
Ranco ignored his gaze, his steps were even, and he walked forward as if he were taking a leisurely stroll.
The Yin Corps did not see him as a living creature, which was to be expected.
Ranko looked at his hand, his pale, bloodless skin was the kind of skin that didn't see the sun all year round.
However, who would have thought that the skin of his whole body was essentially the kind of Egyptian shroud used to wrap the mummy.
Grindelwald did 'kill' him, but unfortunately, the killing was not complete, and he 'lived' again.
And his body, only wrapped in layers of shrouds soaked in the terrible curses of the ancient Egyptian pyramids, could this suppress the power of the spell that was terrifying to the extreme, and after penetrating the eagle, it 'cursed' him to death.
Even after all this time, the spell was still working, but now that his magic had forcibly intervened, and after a long run-in, he had finally formed the current state of equilibrium, and he had benefited from it.
Now, for example, the Yin Corpse sees him as 'one of his kind'.
Only dead things, dead corpses, are not the target of their attacks, and many dark magic creatures in this state do not see him as an enemy or a target. It's also an unexpected bonus.
But this account will have to be paid back one day. Walking slowly, Ranko thought calmly in his heart.
He wasn't polite to the Dark Lord, and he always had to collect the interest he had been collecting all these years before settling the ledger.
When he came across a well-preserved and well-finished Yin corpse, he would pull it directly into the weird book, and later show the students what the real Yin corpse looked like.
It's good to use this theme to teach you another lesson.
Adhering to the Malfoy policy of 'leaving no regrets when you walk', along the way, there are many fresh corpses entrenched in a page of the weird book waiting to be disposed of.
The corridor is very long.
All the way down, it seems that there is no border, straight forward.
I don't know how long it took for Ranko to see a blue-black stone door appear in front of him.
"The number of Yin corpses can be said to be very exaggerated, how many people did Grindelwald kill? Oh, and of course, it's possible that Muggle corpses have been transformed into Yin corpses, and the number of people who have died in Norway alone, either naturally, or accidentally, is much more than that in a few years. β
He looked behind him, and the unlit corridor was eerie, with teeth and claws of the corpses quietly lined up on both sides of the corridor.
I don't know how much effort it will take to go all the way through.
Ranko shook his head and walked over to the door to observe the magic on it.
Just like the stone door at the beginning, it is also the type that opens after entering the 'password', and if the password is incorrect three times, it will be cursed.
Without thinking too much about it, he used the same password as the first time, and it turned out to be a mistake.
Without much thought, after making sure that the only password he knew was incorrect, Ranko began to forcibly break the spell.
To speed things up, after determining the weight of the spell, he raised a handful of unfortunate black sand from Vic Beach, Iceland, to the blue-black stone gate.
Mutually exclusive high-weight curses naturally override low-weight curses.
There are a lot of things that contain curse powers, Ranko, no matter how evil Grindelwald is, he can't be proficient in everything, playing curses, he is an expert in this area.
The wand tapped the blue-black stone door, and a light flashed from the stone door, and a small amount of light flashed in Ranko's other eye, which was not wearing monocles.
Ten seconds later, the original curse was covered by a new one, and Ranko put away the black sand on the ground.
Black Sand, which has exhausted the power of the curse, no longer has the ability to bring misfortune to people, and sometimes it can be miraculous when used well.
He pushed forward, and it didn't take much effort for him to open the heavy door.
'Library on the third floor. β
The voice of the school's will sounded.
Ranko nodded.
The corridor where the Yin corpse is located is just a passage to the third floor, and the next thing is to get to business.
So the question is, what surprises are hidden in the third floor of the library where the entrance is hidden by the curse, the Yin corpse handle, and the entrance?
On the monocle, the human body is fishtailed, and the banshee with wings on her back splashes curiously on the surface of the magic mirror. Ranko took a porcelain vase out of his pocket and held it in the palm of his hand that wasn't holding his wand, and then stepped through the door.
As soon as he stepped through the door, the cold, damp feeling disappeared in an instant.
The bright light of the torches around him made Ranko's eyes squint subconsciously, and before he could get used to the brightness, a devastating sound came from behind him.
[Ultimate Blast].
It was an advanced version of the Demolition Charm, and it was thrown out when he sensed the strangeness behind him.
The huge explosion sent flesh flying, but the sound seemed to flip a switch, and the strange sound came from the front left.
Ranco had adjusted to the light and could see in the direction a woman in shabby clothes, a body like a clothes pole as if devoid of internal organs and moisture, and her ugly face was full of fangs and whites of her eyes, and she was rushing towards him at an alarming speed.
"Yin corpse?"
No, it's not.
Ranko Tong shrank his hole.
- He was so ugly by the sudden appearance of the humanoid monster.
Corpse ...... It's not that ugly, is it?
Aren't the ones in the corridor good?
The three floors of the huge library are cylindrical, with a low middle and high staircase on all sides, and the floor is littered with scattered books and notes, and not far from the window, there are many glass bottles upside down, the potions inside have long since disappeared.
In the center of the third floor of the entire library, there is a thing made of silver stone, similar to a meditation basin, even after a long time, the translucent silver-white liquid in it is still full, and it is impossible to see what is inside.
The place where Ranko stepped out happened to be in a position that was neither high nor low, and the monster behind him took a [Ultimate Blast] and only broke one arm, just like the woman in front of him, leaving only a clothes pole-like body that seemed to be full of power, still roaring in the direction of Ranko.
At the same time, there are movements directly in front of and above, and the same monsters are hidden there.
In an instant, the wand in Ranko's hand moved slightly, and a spell had already taken shape, flying towards the woman who was rushing towards him.
At the same time, he crushed the porcelain vase in his hand.
The blackness of the eyes spread to the whites of the eyes, engulfing them all in an instant, leaving only a bottomless darkness.
The spell that rushed at the woman petrified the woman, and Ranko didn't care about it, and opened his hand, and the powder in his hand was blown up by a gust of wind, and the porcelain-white powder like ashes spread out in all directions at a faster speed than these monsters.
With him as the center, the porcelain-white powder quickly 'diluted' into the air, seamlessly blending into the surrounding space.
The blackness in Professor Malfoy's eyes seemed to be an abyss without a bottom, and it was so strange that it seemed that as long as he looked at it, he would fall into a never-ending deep pool, from which he could never escape.
Don't dare to look, can't look.
In Ranko's eyes, the figures hidden above his head and directly in front of him, they were quickly broken by the penetrating power that broke the hidden spell and was captured by his eyes.
The figure behind him had already been marked.
The curse was activated, and the porcelain-white powder mixed with the air gathered and burrowed into their bodies.
In addition to the petrified woman at the scene, the figure that rushed to him from behind, and the figure hidden above his head, directly in front of him, did not have time to react, their bodies seemed to have gone through thousands of years, and they also turned into the same porcelain white powder at an inconceivable, unresponsive and irresistible speed.
Three seconds later, the dust settled.
There was silence.
The blackness in his eyes faded, and after rediscovering the whites of his eyes, Ranko blinked a little tiredly, took out the potion from his pocket and put a few drops on his eyes.
Phew, this broken body will be blind sooner or later.
"So, this is the third floor of the library?"
Without taking the roster, the school will suddenly appeared by Ranko's side.
She looked at it for a long time before she said with certainty, 'Yes. β
Ranko used the power of the magic mirror to strengthen the piercing effect of his eye's ability, and swept around with some overused throbbing, and only after finding no more traps did he walk up to the petrified woman, and casually picked up his wand and made up a few spells for this strange guy to keep it honest, and then looked at the school will.
"It seems that Grindelwald has been here all along, secretly doing his dark magic experiments."
'Yes. β
Ranko already had some guesses about which Deathly Hallows Grindelwald was studying.
The fifth and final chapter of The Tales of the Three Brothers mentions the existence of the Deathly Hallows, which are immortal creations created by the Grim Reaper.
- The most powerful Elder Wand.
- A resurrection stone that can bring the dead back to life.
- An invisibility cloak that hides itself and cannot be found even by death.
It is said that the one who collects all the Deathly Hallows can become the master of death, above and even beyond death.
But this is only a legend after all, and the Deathly Hallows represents an unattainable craftsmanship, an unsurpassed ancient magic, but it is still made by man after all.
Having a finished product means that it is reproducible.
Grindelwald, he's probably made the Resurrection Stone.
The resurrection stone ...... The Corpse Army......
Ranko looked at the stone basin in the middle, which looked like a meditation basin, which was probably Grindelwald's masterpiece.
"Resurrection Stone, ......."
What a rare treasure, no wonder those saints wanted to come in like crazy.
But why didn't Grindelwald take it back then?
Blinking, Ranko wore his monocle even though he was sure there was no risk around.
He glanced at the quiet and restrained school will, and the wand in his hand swung up and down for a while.
What to do, if the school wants to rob him, what should he do?
Tie up the school will and put it in Xiao Hei, ah no, in the book?
Although this place is on the territory of Durmstrong, under the magic of Grindelwald, this place is beyond the scope of Durmstrang [School], and the school's will cannot exert its maximum strength.
Magical Life, Resurrection Stone...... It's all rare and hard to buy.
It's worth cherishing.
Ah, what a rare opportunity.
So what exactly to do?
Ranko's mind is wild.
The school's will is definitely not easy to grasp, and the chance of winning the resurrection stone is quite large.
Suddenly, Professor Malfoy remembered something he had heard.
Only children do multiple-choice questions.
He wanted them all.
