"Resurrection Stone."

The man chuckled, "One of the three Deathly Hallows, it is said to have the ability to bring the dead back to life. ”

"I can see the pain and obsession in your heart, wizard, but the question is, how did you get him?"

Here it comes!

Snape's heart sank, and he had already guessed that both the soothsayer Professor Tang and the person in front of him must have some kind of purpose.

Knowing their purpose, he naturally knew the relationship between them, anyway, Snape would not believe that the mysterious person in front of him had no connection with Professor Tang. He was silent for a moment, and then followed the mysterious man's request and said, "What do you want me to do?" ”

The man shook his head and said, "What do I want you to do?" No, you're mistaken. ”

"You're not qualified to do anything for me, wizard, you're still standing in front of me, and you're not—"

He snapped his fingers, and the bodies of the two wizards burst into flames.

"And not like them, because you have some value in my opinion, and I am willing to give you a chance to follow me."

"Following you?" Snape's stiff face twitched, and he wanted to sneer and taunt with his best poisonous tongue, but given his current mission, he held back the thought and said, "Who would follow a stranger?" ”

"Pointless tentative tricks." The man commented, "Why waste my time? You can ask me who I am and what my purpose is. I never hide that, I'm happy to let everyone know about me and get to know me. ”

He opened his arms and made a strange salutation towards Snape, "Let me introduce myself, you can call me Mr. Red, of course, I prefer another one-"

"Magician."

I've never heard of this name.

Snape looked at the other man, thinking in his heart.

Magician? Weird name, shouldn't it be magician?

Without waiting for Snape to think further, Mr. Red continued: "As for my purpose. Let me start with a question for you, Mr. Wizard. ”

"What do you think of human beings?"

Snape was stunned for a moment: "Human? What do you mean? ”

He reacted for a moment before he said, "You mean Muggles?" ”

Mr. Red looked at him meaningfully and said, "Muggles. That's right, I don't usually use this kind of vocabulary. ”

"So, what about your answer?"

Snape frowned, not knowing what the other party's intention was in asking this question, he thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter what I think, Muggles have Muggle worlds, wizards have wizarding worlds, they don't interfere with each other, they are independent." ”

"Don't interfere with each other." Mr. Red laughed, and Snape heard the mockery, "The wizards I see, I mean, almost all wizards, seem to think so, that Muggles and wizarding worlds are separate, and that all wizards subtly believe that Muggles shouldn't know about wizards. ”

"In order not to affect the normal order of Muggle society, wizards should certainly not appear in front of Muggles." Snape followed the other party's topic and said as a matter of course, "Otherwise, a dark wizard would be able to completely paralyze Muggle society." ”

"International Wizarding Secrecy Law." Mr. Red said with some trepidation, "Let me tell you what I would say of your answer." ”

"Arrogant, stupid, sitting in the well and watching the sky."

"Let me tell you a joke." He tapped his staff and said, "There is a nest of poisonous snakes in the jungle, and no creature in the jungle can survive their venom, so they think that they are the most powerful beings in the jungle. ”

"They hide themselves in the canopy, under the dead leaves, restrain their aggression, restrain themselves from harming the creatures of the jungle and disturbing the order of the jungle."

Snape's face was gloomy, and he could hear the ridicule in the other man's words, but instead of anger, he was horrified.

As expected, the other party did not hide his purpose in the slightest, and that purpose—Snape, as a former Death Eater, as a first-hand witness to Voldemort's plunder, could have guessed it.

This mysterious man who calls himself a magician is dissatisfied with the order of the wizarding world and flouts the international wizarding secrecy law.

Such a person, if he has no strength, will only become a spurned madman, Azkaban is his final destination, but if there is strength, and it is extremely powerful, then it may be a disaster for the wizarding world.

Judging by Snape's current observations, the other side is probably the latter.

He didn't act rashly, in fact, Snape didn't have such a strong sense of justice, nor did he have a strong sense of belonging and honor to the wizarding world, so he spoke: "This metaphor is not appropriate, the viper is also dangerous in the face of predators, it also has natural enemies in the jungle, and wizards want to control humans, but all they need is a wave of their wands." ”

"You helped me finish the joke." Mr. Red looked at Snape and laughed, "You see, that's what Viper thinks. ”

"It sits in a well and thinks that the jungle is the whole world, but it doesn't know that the world is far bigger than it imagined, and it is much more fragile than it imagined."

"Mr. Wizard, why do you think the International Wizarding Secrecy Law exists? Is it because the wizards who made this rule wanted to protect ordinary people? Mr. Red's smile narrowed as he spoke, his eyes full of mockery.

"No, it's to protect yourself, to make the world forget the existence of wizards, to prevent wizards from being tied to the gallows, to keep yourself from being thrown into flames."

"Throughout the time, wizards were a minority, a vulnerable group, and wizards buried their heads in the sand for so long that they even forgot about it."

Snape said coldly, "So, your purpose is to break the International Wizarding Secrecy Law?" If that's the case, I'm afraid it's not wise for you to say it here. ”

Mr. Red glanced casually at the entrance of the alley, as the flames were burning in the alley, and several wizards had gathered at the entrance.

"Only the weak hide their minds." He said indifferently, "Since I'm here, I don't mind letting my name be spread on this land." ”

He raised his voice slightly: "I can see your eyes, see what is in your heart." ”

"It's really disappointing."

"You think I'm here to destroy, to bring disaster to wizards, to have some boring lusts."

"I don't blame you, the wizarding world has been ignorant for too long, you have been arrogant in the narrow and dark well for too long, you are so immersed in your playful games that you can't see the changes in the outside world."

"Someone needs to tell you all this, someone needs to wake you up, even if only some of them, out of the well of arrogance and ignorance."

His gaze swept over Snape, over the wizards watching at the entrance of the alley.

"My purpose is not to destroy, but to save."

"I will save you from the ultimate demise of the wizarding world because of arrogance and ignorance, and believe me, that day will not be too far away,"

"The days of ease are over, and war will come, in which no wizard will be left alone."

"I want to stop this from happening, to stop the eventual demise of the wizarding world due to arrogance and ignorance, and of course, I know that not everyone deserves to be saved, and there are ignorances that are hopelessly incurable."

"Those who approve of me will walk with me, and those who do not approve of me—"

He narrowed his eyes slightly:

"The scum of the old era, I'm afraid I am not qualified to board the ship of the new era."
