Chapter 439: The Funeral Meets the Celestial Stars

For half a month after Dumbledore closed the door, everything seemed to be business as usual, but this world was indeed missing an old wizard. Most people are still deceiving themselves and not thinking about whether the old wizard is still alive or not.

At 3:40 p.m. on January 15, Ted, who was revising the design of the all-round magic net, was suddenly stunned, stopped what he was doing, stood up and walked to the school auditorium.

As soon as I got to the door, I saw a junior student running out in a hurry, almost hitting Ted headbutt. Seeing Ted in front of him, the little wizard was about to speak, but Ted stretched out his hand to stop him: "I know." ”

Ted walked into the auditorium, where several students were already gathered at the end of the auditorium, the professor at the table surrounded by the crystal that was enclosed in magic.

Just now, the crystal, which was still emitting a faint glow, went out.

There was no miracle, and after holding out for half a month, Dumbledore behind the door still walked into death.

This life crystal was made to determine his life status before.

As long as he was alive, the crystal would not be extinguished, but now it is extinguished after all.

In the world of death, if the door is closed and you can't get out, you will eventually end up with death. Even the legendary wizard only lasted half a month.

Ted looked at the dim crystal a little distracted, but was awakened by the system prompt: "You have witnessed a great death, and you have a deep feeling and understanding. Gain the talent [Know Death (Red)]: When facing undead and instant death-type magic, +5 magic resistance. ”

Ted turned around and took a deep breath, "Send a message, Dumbledore, sacrificed!" ”

……

Later that evening, the Daily Prophet and other mainstream newspapers urgently printed a special issue with the headline "Dumbledore Died".

There was a brief silence in the wizarding world, as if it didn't know what to say, and then a discussion erupted in the evening.

In the past half a month, there have been fewer and fewer things such as the deception of corpses and the resurrection of the dead, and they have almost declined visibly.

Shows that Dumbledore's closing of the Dead's Gate was a success.

But now that they have exactly got the news of his sacrifice, everyone is a little embarrassed.

A lot of wizards are a little confused right now - we sacrificed Dumbledore this time, but what about next time? What about next time? Who else do we have to sacrifice?

Is there really hope for the future? Or is there really a future?

The next day, the teachers and students of Hogwarts held a funeral for Dumbledore in the clearing between the school's Black Lagoon and the Forbidden Forest.

Although Dumbledore didn't even leave a corpse......

The sky was a little dark and hazy, as if it was going to rain.

All of them were dressed in dark clothes, and many of the ladies wore black veils, including the whole school of teachers and students and many wizards, probably a few hundred of them.

Ted stood in front of the sarcophagus with only one dress inside, and gave a eulogy to the crowd.

It's not too long, it's even short, it's not painful, it's something Dumbledore had written for himself before.

Like he said, he's ready.

Ted put down the eulogy that Dumbledore had written for himself in his hand, and said to everyone: "Today, we are here to bid farewell to Dumbledore, he has done too much for us, now is the time to rest." There will be more difficulties in the days to come, as he said - be brave, and there is hope! ”

Ted raised his wand, and a spell shot into the air, dispersing large clouds and letting the sun fall.

Everyone put away their cries and raised their wands, letting them glow, as if trying to light the way for Dumbledore.

After the funeral, Ted met Grindelwald in the distance by the Forbidden Forest, he didn't say anything, just watched Hogwarts for a moment, then shook his head and left.

Ted also saw another person, Aberforth, Dumbledore's own brother and owner of the Hogsmeade Pig's Head Tavern.

Previously, Aberforth had more affection for Dumbledore, mother, father, sister, son...... He felt that his brother was responsible for the loss of these loved ones.

Now, the last loved one has finally passed away. He was alone.

Ted didn't know what he thought, but the tall and old figure like Dumbledore seemed so lonely.

At dinner that night, everyone in the auditorium was silent, and even when they spoke, they tried their best to keep their voices low, as if they were worried about alarming something.

Seeing this, Ted put on a song called "Nocturne":

Let the day slip away now,

So that the night will come to protect you.

Velvet, blue night,

So silent and real,

It embraces your heart and soul,

Nocturne is playing.

Don't weep, don't sigh,

You don't have to wonder why.

The night is always there, see you forever.

Sleepwalk with me that night.

The nocturne is playing......

Life is like a journey from which there is no turning back, and for better or worse, someone will eventually leave. And the rest of us need to move on.

However, what people didn't expect was that at midnight on the day of Dumbledore's funeral, there was a meeting of the stars.

Ted floated on the tower of the main tower, watching as huge stars in the sky, several times larger than the moon, emitting a dim glow, moved across the horizon, from small to large, then from large to smaller, and finally disappeared.

The whole process lasted about fifty minutes!

This is not only visible to the wizarding world, but also to the ordinary world.

You don't need any astronomical telescopes, as long as you are not severely myopic and do not wear glasses, you can see clearly.

However, this is not the first time that the strange "astronomical phenomenon" of the conjunctions of the stars has appeared.

It should be said that it has been several times, and at first the Muggle country officials would find an excuse, comets, light and shadow reflections, and so on. But now, I don't bother to explain.

The appearance of the intersection of the stars shows that the situation of the other world has deepened again.

……

Ted opened his eyes and looked out the window at the sky, it was probably only four o'clock in the morning, the sun had not yet risen, and the sky and earth were dark. But I had to get out of bed.

Ted carefully pulled Hermione's arm out and quietly got up.

It's only been a few days since Dumbledore's funeral, and now Professor McGonagall has become the headmaster of Hogwarts, but many international and Ministry of Magic matters need to be handled by Ted, and no matter how bad it is, he has to come forward on behalf of Dumbledore to make up the numbers.

I still have to maintain the existence of the Order of the Phoenix, but fortunately, many members have a good relationship with me.

After Ted left the bedroom, Hermione opened her eyes and looked out the window, feeling a little heavy.

Dumbledore was gone, and the burden fell on Ted. Ted, who hadn't graduated yet, had to deal with a lot of organizations and wizards. It was really busy during this time, and I didn't have any free time at all.

Ted even wondered if he had fallen for Dumbledore's tricks, and now he had inherited Dumbledore's mission - to start standing up for others!

Oh, retribution! Entrepreneurs really need to take on their due social obligations.

The seventh-year wizard is about to graduate, except for a few who are graduating ... Outside of the S exam curriculum, there is not much to study.

In fact, normally speaking, many seventh-graders this year will leave school and go to their own "internship units" to intern, and adapt to the life of the wizarding world away from the campus in advance.

Those who have connections and ambitions will go to the Ministry of Magic, or those institutions under the Ministry of Magic.

Those who love freedom more, some go to shops, some go to caravans, and there are also options such as archaeological pavilions.

But this year, Ted had a meeting with all the seventh and sixth graders.

Ted: The world has changed so much right now, and you know that both Muggles and us wizards are going to face a tough test right now.

I have an idea, and I hope that everyone can organize and actively deal with the difficulties that may arise, even disasters!

For example, the Ideal Township Working Group, the Magic Net Laying Group, and various development groups have concentrated their efforts. Clench five fingers into a fist! Give full play to our due strength and make some contribution to the world!

In the end, most of the sixth and seventh year students participated in the "Hogwarts Career Placement Help Group" organized by Ted. Except for a few Slytherins who chose not to get involved - they even had Death Eaters in their family, who had been imprisoned in Azkaban and later escaped from prison and lived with Voldemort in Eastern Europe. They can't mess with Ted anyway, and they feel awkward themselves.

The Minister of Magic, Ms. Bones, is very troubled and dissatisfied with this, isn't this weakening the influence of the Ministry of Magic? Do? Engage in double-talking?!

Although Ms. Bones is jealous and hateful, and she resolutely resists Voldemort and the Death Eaters to the end, it is really difficult to say about the benefits.

But Ted didn't care about their opinions, the world was changing so fast, there was no time to take their feelings into account.

Besides, the "Employment Internship Support Group" organized by a group of students who didn't graduate has affected your Ministry of Magic, right? That can only say that you are too incompetent!

Ted began to organize various projects to accelerate the work, mainly the laying of all-round magic nets, and now most of Northern Europe, Western Europe, and the Mediterranean Sea have basically completed all-round magic net coverage.

It's the kind of deep coverage that can unfold the mirror world at any time and carry out the kind of ideal country advent.

But in Eastern Europe, the countries that are now occupied by the Death Eaters, there is no way to do their job.

So, now Ted is tasked with Africa, the Americas, and Australia...... Either way, there's always something wrong with empowering yourself.

As for the enemy's movements, see the moves!

In the past two days, Ted got the news that in his mental world, the Newts who had been trapped for more than a year were hanging!

"It's really going to hold on!" Ted had to sigh.

To be honest, this Newt man is really jumping, if he doesn't meet him, stabilize the waves and develop for another two years, his strength can be multiplied several times.

It's a pity that I was caught and sucked dry by myself.

He gave Ted a total of 6 Strength, 8 Constitution, 7 Agility, and 3 Perception!

It can be seen that his own attributes are definitely not low! The three items of force and body sensitivity are definitely between 20 and 30, and the perception attribute must also have more than a dozen.

It's a pity that his intelligence is not high, and his mental attributes are average, so he has not been able to contribute attributes to Ted.

And he belongs to the ability to take drugs, transform, and mutate, which came too suddenly, and it is difficult for him to fully exert himself.

And although the attribute is very important, the talent of doubling the attribute effect is even more important.

This kid has developed the defensive talent [Iron Body (Red)], and has also created a [Anti-Gravity Flight (Red)], and has also created a [Laser Eye (Red)...... It's only been more than half a year since he became a superpower!

If this continues to be developed, there will definitely be greater potential, but it's a pity~

This son is so terrifying, there is a way to die, and he must not stay!

The corpse of this thing has to be kept, study it carefully, genes, bloodlines, etc., it really can't be made into high-grade materials, isn't it!

Ted soon receives a notice from the International Confederation of Wizards inviting him to a meeting.

But at the meeting, Ted just listened, not spoke.

The old wizards didn't bother to let him say anything.

Although Dumbledore basically gave those connections or anything to Ted at the last time. It's like determining the heir.

But these old wizards naturally don't think that a 17-year-old young wizard can have any constructive opinions.

Although Ted's strength is stronger than everyone here, and his achievements are not small, in their view, Ted's development has not been twenty or thirty years, and there is no way to face Voldemort directly.

And now the biggest problem is Voldemort and his Death Eaters.

Just after Dumbledore closed the door to the dead, the Death Eaters became a little restless. But it was pressed down by Voldemort.

When it was confirmed that Dumbledore was dead a few days ago, they finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to infiltrate the surrounding countries, and even directly provoked the local Ministry of Magic.

The Ministries of Magic in Britain, France and Germany are considered to be strong, and the Ministries of Magic in other countries may not even have fifty people, so it is difficult to resist.

In the air of some wizards' gathering places, the Death Eaters proudly sat on magic brooms and swept by, leaving behind a message: "This place is under the Dark Lord's rule!" ”

The Death Eaters are encroaching on the countries of Eastern and Central Europe, and many wizards are afraid and do not want to be ruled by the Death Eaters, and now a large number of wizards are even choosing to take refuge overseas.

And a new round of reactions brought about by the intersection of the stars has also begun to appear.

In the Far East, it was Dongying who reacted the most, and directly started the night walk of the hundred ghosts.

At night, except for a few guarded areas, curfew is approaching.

You can't wander the streets after 10 p.m. Because you will really encounter "ghosts"!

If only you just broke into the monster's market, drank a few glasses in a daze, and woke up to find that you were sleeping in wasteland, ruins, and unfinished buildings.

If you're really unlucky, you might end up with a youkai's appetizer.

It depends on which youkai's "community" manages the area you live in.

Some are more friendly and intimate with humans, but some are really cannibalistic!

Although around the emperor, there are also many onmyoji, priests, monks, exorcists, etc., trying their best to maintain balance.

But it's too hard! The number of youkai may grow faster than the population of Toei!

can maintain the order of the day, and the Dongying monster has long been accustomed to this mode of "people dominate the day, and demons control the night". But in the countryside, many vernacular beliefs are also revived.

All kinds of small shrines are full of incense. After all, the emperor is far away, and it is better to count on the protection of the emperor than to count on the land god!

Nanbang's side is also quite able to survive, and they originally believed in those messy things. Now it's even more powerful, after all, it's all come true.

Those civil society groups have sprung up like mushrooms, often with large members, large amounts of financial resources, and in many places even more influential than the official ones.

What's more, they are evil!

What evil law cultivation, demon sacrifices, etc., are very bloody.

The wizard over there even revealed on the Ideal Township forum that a high-ranking official had recently secretly organized a sacrifice and sank a ship on the sea, with graduating students on it, hundreds of them......

Although the wizard tried his best to call for help, thousands of miles away, it was a foreign country, and no one else could do it!

All Ted can do is update Wizarding World again, and now the time in the game is 1.5 times longer than in reality.

That is, 1.5 hours have passed in the game, and only 1 hour has passed in reality, which is 1.5 times longer!

Give players more time to research, fight, and practice magic.

This is the result of Ted's research into the magic of time.

It is said that this world like a hornet's nest is really not suitable for time-based magic, and it has caused turmoil before, causing the magic world to destroy all time-related magic props.

But the current situation is that the situation will become more and more serious if you use it or not, so it is better to use it and fight it!

Europe was not idle, and ordinary people began to circulate a lot of specious magical knowledge, and even methods of magical practice.

What is the Black Scripture, the Rune Skull Society, and the Saturnalia Faith......

These things come from unknown origins, but they all have something.

Scary is scary in that there are some things, they work, but the side effects are huge.

There was even a Muggle who started a mass epidemic psychosis in the whole city!

People in entire cities can get mentally ill because they see or hear about it.

This mass hysteria first spread among school students, and within a few days, it caused problems for more than 100,000 people in a city.

This incident caused wizards from all over the world to dispatch three or four hundred people to cooperate with the official to wipe their butts.

I haven't been done for more than a week!
