Chapter 140: Voldemort's Source of Strength

"It's a pity that my time is relatively limited, and this son of Lucius is not a very qualified person himself, so he can do this."

Tom Riddle said with regret, "If he had half the talent of my own, then I believe you would have gone to see Merlin, Dumbledore." ”

"I'm not interested in comparing which of your past and present depravities is more severe. But there is no doubt that everything you have done is beyond the bottom line of a wizard, or even a dark wizard. ”

Dumbledore said in a deep voice.

"You tell me the bottom line? Dumbledore, I'm already going to win anyway, so I might as well talk to you more, in fact, I've always wanted to talk to you, but you're always so wary of me, in fact, if you're willing to open up to me, I don't think there is a need to die so many wizards. ”

Tom Riddle said playfully.

"The bottom line is only used to bind mediocrities, and if I don't step out of those stupid boxes, how can I stand here and talk to you? Dumbledore, there are so many talented wizards, but why are there so few great wizards in the world now? You've been a teacher and headmaster at Hogwarts for so many years, and you've ever taught a great wizard other than me? Of course, I'm actually self-taught. ”

Luo Cheng not only pricked up his ears when he heard this, he was actually very curious, why wizards like Dumbledore and Voldemort were so much stronger than other wizards, and the other so-called elite wizards together were not enough for them to fight.

Harry and Ron obviously had the same idea, and for young wizards, Dumbledore and Voldemort were fascinated by the power they showed, and this was a real wizarding duel!

"It's not uncommon for wizards who are well-versed in spells, experienced, and wise, and have all three, but at best, they can become so-called 'elite wizards', and to become a great wizard, you need to have great magical powers. But unfortunately, magic is an innate talent, and it is difficult to break this ceiling no matter how hard you work the day after tomorrow. ”

Tom Riddle put it simply: "I think I'm talented, but my background limits my growth, because I have half of my dirty Muggle blood in my veins, and that's really distressing to me. I had to find a way to increase my magic limit, and luckily I found this solution in the banned books of Hogwarts, and that was magical transfiguration. ”

"So you become a no-man and a ghost."

Dumbledore said.

"It's just a small price to pay for gaining power, Dumbledore."

Tom Riddle said, "If you want me to say, this is the original intention of the Animagus, to allow wizards to gain the natural power of those naturally powerful magical creatures through transfiguration. ”

Luo Cheng suddenly realized when he heard this, of course he knew Animagus, this is a fairly advanced transformation technique, involving the change of life form, and the wizard who can transform into some kind of animal by himself, while retaining his own magical mana, is called Animagus.

However, Animagus transformations are usually limited to non-magical creatures, and magical creatures (such as phoenixes, fire dragons, Hippogriffs, etc.) can have unforeseen consequences.

Clearly, Voldemort turned himself into a magical creature, more than once. It was in such dangerous transformations that he gained amazing magical powers, transforming from Tom Riddle into a Dark Lord.
