Chapter 433: The Battle Is Approaching
ββ
[Big chapter, 2w4 recommended tickets plus more included]
ββ
The first forty Death Eaters began burning the souls of captured Muggles in anticipation to make Horcruxes. In order to increase the success rate, they even used a kind of magic that Voldemort invented himself when he was in school, and lowered the soul cohesion in advance to make it easier to split...... But only six people survived, and all of them left huge sequelae: Lockhart did not use this method, and after making Horcruxes, he still lost control of his emotions from time to time, and almost all of these resurrected people who reduced the cohesion of their souls were crazy people like Voldemort.
Then, all six of them were killed by Voldemort!
The rest of the people were terrified, but the entrance to the cave had been sealed, and there was nowhere to run, so they had to endure the fear and continue to stay here...... During this time, Voldemort continued to use his powerful magic power to generate souls for six Horcruxes.
After two weeks of birth, just a few days ago, the souls of the first Horcrux makers were finally reborn, and Voldemort personally watched Peter brew resurrection soup for these six people, and carved the Dark Mark mark on their internal organs and even skeletons in the process of resurrection...... Let these people have to obey their orders from now on.
ββ
It was foolish to leave the Dark Mark mark on their arms, the Malfoys had fled, Snape had defected, and the Dark Mark marks on all of them had lost contact - they had apparently cut off their own arms.
This time, Lord Voldemort will no longer be merciful, the Dark Mark must be engraved in a lethal position, as long as his mind moves, the resurrected person with a strange mind will die immediately!
ββ
Although the strength of the resurrected person did not surprise him, it was clearly up to the expected standard...... If it weren't for the incident a few days ago when the Dementors couldn't help but go down the mountain to attack Muggles, Voldemort would have been waiting for the birth of the second reborn at this moment......
Transfer?
No, if he had to run alone, no one in the world would be able to catch him, but the six resurrectants didn't have such strength at all. They now have a powerful magic, but they haven't even learned to fly, and they really miss those men who have followed them for many years......
Now the network of flyways outside has been cut off, and if you guessed correctly, the edge of the mountains has been covered with no-fly and alarm magic by the Ministry of Magic.
If it is forcibly transferred, it will inevitably be exposed. Attracted that Lockhart to pursue, the six resurrected people would never be able to escape.
The remaining dozens of old, weak, sick and disabled people can't even go down the mountain to catch Muggles for them to kill and make Horcruxes......
The most important thing is that the four cauldrons of resurrection potion have already begun to boil, if it is another week or even a few days. A second group of four resurrected people will also be born...... Although the production method of the resurrection potion is not complicated, the important thing is not to stop boiling halfway, otherwise a large amount of magic in the potion will escape, and the resurrected person may not even be as strong as before......
Don't go.
Voldemort reluctantly relented.
The six resurrectants joined forces, and even they could beat themselves, and the guy known as the White Devil King was not as strong as himself, if he could kill him while he was unprepared......
But the other party knows the power of resurrection magic, and must have made corresponding preparations. Now bet he wouldn't have guessed that there were already six resurrectors on his side!
Voldemort grinned fiercely at the sun, facing the sun, as if he were not smiling.
After a few seconds, the coldness returned to it for a moment. He turned around and walked back into the cave.
ββ
"I'm back. Lockhart went back to Grimaud Street as if nothing had happened.
It stands to reason that as the highest combat force of the Order of the Phoenix faction, it is naturally better for him to participate in the search on the front line at this moment. But he didn't want Hermione to be left alone at home to worry about himself. And with his current condition, it's better to use as little magic as possible, and if he's not careful, he'll curse a curse.
"My dear. You're back. Ginny ran up and put her arms around him, and the two kissed each other.
No, Lockhart pushed Ginny away, and after a day of hard work, his brain was not good, and he was actually paralyzed by Ginny's "dear" and regarded her as his wife!
"What's the matter!" Ginny walked over again aggrievedly, reached out for him to take off his coat and hang it on the hanger, his movements were natural and his demeanor was the same, and Lockhart was so made by her that for a moment he had the illusion that Ginny was his wife.
Luckily, Hermione's big yellow cat rubbed at his feet again, bringing him back to his senses.
"Where's Hermione?"
"Forcing Creeter to get dressed. β
β......β
Lockhart sat down on the couch, "Are you going to harass me like this every day?"
"How can you say harassment, it's your fiancΓ©e!"
"Don't use that word!"
"You said that you would marry me in three years, and you won't be my fiancΓ©!"
"You can't say that if you're not engaged. β
"When is the engagement?"
"I want to think about it......" Lockhart was almost wrapped around again, "What I said is, if you still want to marry me in three years, I will marry you, not engaged." β
"Then I said I'm your girlfriend, so I'm right. β
"Alas......" Lockhart tugged at his hair in annoyance: "Ginny, what do you like about me, can't I change it?" β
"I love that you're so nice to Hermione, so handsome, so powerful. Ginny grinned and said, "If you scold Hermione in front of me, and then disfigure yourself and deactivate yourself, I don't like you anymore." β
"Don't be vexatious!"
Ginny glared at him angrily: "Whoever is unreasonable, you can't tell me what's wrong with me, you just pretend not to accept me!"
"Don't talk nonsense with you, I'm going to eat. Lockhart was speechless and shouted upstairs, "Hermione, is dinner ready, if you don't want to do it, just let Clay cut it out and let him do it." β
ββ
Half a minute later, the old elf, with a nimble skill that was not at all commensurate with his appearance, ran down the stairs and into the kitchen with a smoke that seemed to be chasing him from behind.
Ginny reluctantly stood up, picked out a rag, and began to stick it on the table, her little ass facing Lockhart, swaying with the movement. The man took a few looks, and suddenly found that Ginny's figure was even better than he remembered.
"Where did you get the clothes on your body, I didn't see you wearing them?"
"I bought it when I was shopping with Hermione, the latest Muggle this year, does it look good. Ginny looked back at him, "Do you want to take it off yourself?" Look at the scenery under the clothes?"
"A lot of men would think, like Harry......"
"No way, a bad man!" said Ginny, annoyed.
"Where's Albert?"
"I don't like the Yankees!"
"Neville is not bad, he's pretty handsome now. β
"I don't like the way he looks silly. β
Lockhart frowned: "You're really demanding!"
"That's why I fell in love with you. β
ββ
"I'm exhausted," Hermione sweated down from the stairs, "I made clothes for Croixer with my own hands, but he didn't wear anything at all, and he usually looks like he falls when the wind blows, and he can run faster than Crookshank!"
"Creetche isn't Jim, you can't command him. Lockhart laughed and said, "He still refuses to accept the salary that Cyreth pays him." β
"It's better to be Dobby, I'm so happy to see the clothes I've made for himβ" Hermione sat down beside Lockhart. The two kissed each other affectionately, and Ginny next to him was on fire.
"The Ministry of Magic may have spotted the mysterious man and Grindelwald. Lockhart said solemnly, "It's likely that we will be able to catch him in these two days......
"The professor must be able to deal with him. Ginny asked.
"It should be no problem, I'm going to meet the old gentleman next door now, and I'll be back for dinner soon. β
ββ
"Mr. Grindelwald, how have you been these two days?"
"Yes, after a few comfortable days...... Now think about what a foolish idea it was to be bent on building an orderly world. The old fellow still looked lazy: "But beware, you're the only wizard who knows that Devardy Treg is Gellert Grindelwald." If you really want me to enjoy my old age, please change the name you call me. β
"It's my fault, Mr. Tregg. Lockhart humbly accepted the criticism: "Is the new wand any good?" β
"Much worse than the wand of death. Grindelwald said dissatisfiedly, "What, you want me to make a move?"
"It should have been these two days. Lohar nodded: "The Ministry of Magic has completely fenced off the area where the suspect is located and is searching, please be vigilant." β
"It's hard to say, I slept peacefully in prison for fifty years. It's hard for me to be woken up. The old man said in a matter-of-fact manner, "If something happens while I'm sleeping, I might have to trouble you to wake me up." β
"I'll drag you out of bed. Lockhart curled his lips slightly: "I'll go back to dinner, you feel free." β
"Been here for so many days. I also want to see what the White Lord's wife looks like. β
"That's not my house, and the secret isn't me, and I don't have the right to take you in. Lockhart said apologetically: "As for what my wife looks like, you can see it in the newspaper, doesn't Jim bring you the newspaper every day, and there are many opportunities to see real people after the war." β
"Hmph, forget it, you can go. Grindelwald looked unpleasant: "After you kill that Voldemort guy, you have to get me a settling-in fee, and I want to live in seclusion." β
"As long as you don't have the idea of getting a new vote in England and promoting your 'for the greater good,' I don't care where you want to go. Lohar nodded and agreed: "As for the settling-in fee, 100,000 Galleons, I will pay for it personally." β
ββ
I don't know if it was fifty years in prison or persuaded in the exchange of letters with Dumbledore, Grindelwald is now not interested in the pure-bloods of his own time, wizards ruled Muggles and other theories, and has no opinion on Lockhart's wanton persecution of the pure-blood family of pro-Death Eaters, just going out to the Muggle streets every day, and obediently returning to Grimaud Street in the evening.
But he was still a dangerous guy, and Lockhart had left a magical mark on him, which Grindelwald was clearly aware of, but didn't say anything.
Lockhart did not dare to let him enter 12 Glimemore Street, even though he was the new secret keeper of the Cruel Loyalty Curse...... He even subconsciously considered whether to kill Grindelwald or erase his memory after the fact, after all, he would be criticized and criticized by Germany and even the world when this incident was exposed......
But the former Dark Lord's easy-to-go attitude slowly dispelled these thoughts of Lockhart, what if this old guy could obediently help him kill Voldemort and set him free, threatening the highest-ranking war criminals? The Dark Wizard who caused the most wizard deaths? What does this have to do with himself!
ββ
After eating dinner as usual, Ginny consciously put on her apron and said that she would clean up the table and wash the dishes, looking at her diligent appearance, Lockhart was a little puzzled, did this girl think that she liked girls who love housework?
Hermione, on the other hand, began to use her brains again to make Crane switch from the rags on her body and put on decent clothes, which frightened the old elf into hiding in his cupboard again, and refused to come out.
Lockhart sat helplessly on the couch and began to contact the Ministry of Magic fighters who were on a search mission on the Welsh front, and they divided into several rounds to conduct a meticulous search of the Snowton Mountains day and night. As long as there is a trace of magic anomaly, it will be traced to the end, and this time even if Voldemort hides underground, he will have to be dug out.
Reports of contact with the Dementors are becoming more and more frequent, and the two sides have even begun to fight...... Lockhart realized that a battle was looming to determine whether the British wizarding world would continue to be chaotic and ignorant, or whether it would be peaceful and progressive.
ββ
I guess I won't be able to sleep comfortably tonight.
Lockhart has always been a man who doesn't like to think too much, except for the time when he was surrounded in the Cairngorms Forest, he didn't dare to sleep soundly every day, even during the time when he was wanted by the Death Eater government, he was able to sleep peacefully every night, and he slept until he woke up naturally.
But now he has too many things to be so free.
