Chapter Seventy-Nine: Dumbledore (I)
Thank you for the monthly pass of Bundou 12 feeding*(ˊˋ*)*
——————————————————————
In that dazzling light, a silver phoenix flapped its wings and flew out, circling around Rossi at great speed.
The surrounding Dementors retreated, and as the Patronus approached, they could only reluctantly disappear into the darkness.
"Ding, the completion of forcing back the Dementors has increased."
I didn't have the heart to see how much the completion of the task had increased, and at this moment, Rosie, who was parked in mid-air on a broomstick, was looking at the person who suddenly appeared in front of him with a horrified expression.
"Dumbledore, how are you ...... You're ......"
She wanted to say something, but looking at the middle-aged man in front of her, she realized that she didn't know what to say at all.
Because the Dumbledore who was floating in the air in front of her was clearly the one on the main timeline of the game!
"Miss Rosie, is this what a copy is called?"
Dumbledore asked in a vague tone, obviously in the heavy rain, but his voice penetrated Rosie's ears word for word.
"Yes...... That's the copy ......"
Rosie's heart was in a mess, before this happened, she couldn't have imagined that Dumbledore would be able to follow her into the copy with an alchemy pocket watch.
You know, his AI has just been improved after the system has been upgraded, how did he bypass the system detection?
"You cracked the secret of the invitation?" Rosie looked at him quizzically.
Hearing this, Dumbledore, who was looking in the direction of Hogwarts, turned his gaze to Rosie again and said with a smile:
"It's not cracking, it's skipping."
"Actually, when I first got it, I didn't take it seriously. It wasn't until later, uh, after Uh...... "The Chamber of Secrets" that I started working on it. But in the end, I could only see that there was a rule attached to it, but there was a secret hidden in it that I couldn't understand at all. ”
"So, I thought of you."
"Thought of me?"
Rosie was stunned again, "Is it because of the disorderly, chaotic atmosphere you said?" ”
Dumbledore shook his head with a smile, "No, it's because of your name that was on the Secret Room leaderboard in the foyer. ”
How did he know? Wasn't he a low-intelligence NPC who only repeated conversations before the game was updated?
Thinking of this, Rosie asked nervously, "Professor Dumbledore, do you remember when we first met?" ”
Hearing her ask such a question, Dumbledore couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said slowly:
"Before Hogwarts decided to recruit Guardians, I was in the Great Hall of Hogwarts, and I was thinking about it, so I only had a few words to say to you."
After a pause, he looked into Rosie's eyes and asked, "I remember, I should be right, right?" ”
"That's right."
It seems that after the game is updated, it has also completed the memories of NPCs in a more reasonable way.
"So how exactly did you skip the tie...... Copy of the rules? ”
Rosie pressed again.
"It's an attempt."
Dumbledore said with some emotion, "I referred to the imaging principle of portraits and the principle of some kind of dark magic soul splitting, and at the same time asked Mr. Nick Lemay a lot of alchemy knowledge, and finally refined this alchemy pocket watch. ”
How some kind of dark magic splits souls? You're talking about Horcruxes, right? Absolutely!
Without waiting for Rossi to speak, Dumbledore continued: "Actually, what you see me is not the real me, you can think of me as a memory, a three-dimensional portrait with a little power......
A memory? A three-dimensional portrait with a little power?
Rosie glanced at the Patronus he had summoned that was still flying, was that a point? This is clearly 100 million points!
If, as he says, he is not a living person, then it seems reasonable that he can enter here through system detection.
"Then have you been in the alchemy pocket watch? Can you perceive what's going on in the outside world? Rosie asked her top concern.
"Yes, I've been in this pocket watch as part of the alchemy."
Dumbledore nodded, "It's only when you open your pocket watch that I can perceive the outside world. ”
Well, that's reassuring to me. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing to be monitored by a wise NPC!
Muttering silently, she thought a little uneasy: Wait, he won't deceive me, right?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Rosie closed his pocket watch with a "snap" without warning.
Suddenly, Dumbledore, who was standing out of thin air, looked at him in surprise, and in the next second, his body turned into countless silver particles, which dissipated in the wind and rain in an instant.
Well! It seems that he is right.
Rosie nodded in satisfaction.
As Dumbledore vanished, the silver Patronus hovered abruptly in front of Rossi and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the rain was getting more and more intense, and with a cold wind blowing, Rosie, who was already soaking wet, couldn't help but shiver.
You can't just stay in the sky and get drenched in the rain like this.
Rosie muttered to himself and flew down to the ground on his broomstick.
This is a mountain range located northeast of the Forbidden Forest, and a long way from Hogwarts Castle. Judging by the map, this place is a no-man's land.
"Stay warm!"
Flip the wand and tap lightly on yourself, and a warm current immediately circulates and flows through your body.
"Whew, it's finally warm!"
Rosie let out a long breath and lit up his wand as he put on his raincoat.
However, when the glow of the wand illuminated the darkness, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw two figures standing quietly under a tree not far away.
"Ahh
Rosie, who was startled, had a violent beating of his heart.
"Miss Rosie, in such a rainstorm, you don't stay in Hogwarts to study, what are you doing here?"
There was no trace of warmth in a cold voice, which was Snape's hallmark.
He stood under a tree with an umbrella, next to Dumbledore, who had silver-white hair.
"Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor Snape, why are you here?"
In fact, she wanted to know more about when they got here and if they saw anything.
O Merlin's beard! How do I explain it if they see it?
Accustomed to the special words used by other students to express their amazement, Rosie subconsciously said something in his heart.
Dumbledore smiled and paced towards Rosie:
"Can you explain to us what's going on here?"
I didn't see him cast any spells, but when the rain fell on him, it was all blocked by an invisible barrier.
"Explain ......"
What should I explain? No, where do I start explaining?
Rosie, who had been in a state of panic since seeing Dumbledore, had already begun to consider the feasibility of taking out the alchemy pocket watch and opening it for the two Dumbledores to explain by themselves.
It's too difficult, dog planning, this is a plot that a normal person can come up with?
Just when Rosie was at a loss for what to do and wanted to use a powerful device, Professor Snape, who was already very dissatisfied with her, spoke impatiently.
"Miss Rosie, I think you should explain why the Dementors are here? You summoned the Patronus Charm just now? Could it be that you're helping that Azkaban fugitive? ”
