The Mightiest Wizard of Hogwarts

Chapter 264 Chapter 262

"Before he attacked me, he must have felt that the horcrux was destroyed, and he would definitely go to find other horcruxes that he had hidden before. After he found that they were all destroyed, he must make a backup for himself. However, seven The number is almost the limit, so it can only be one piece, and the snake following him is the most likely."

Neither Feeney nor Dumbledore directly said that the Horcrux was Harry. One reason was that they couldn't bear it. After all, Harry is also a living life, and they have been doing it for a long time. It is all about cultivating Harry's spirit of dedication and courage, and then making Harry willing to die.

Another reason is Sirius, Harry's godfather, maybe he doesn't have that deep affection for Harry, but after all, Harry is the child of his best friend James, and sometimes Sirius will even kiss Harry in a trance. Leigh thought it was James.It's just a godson, maybe Sirius doesn't care, but if it's James' child, he will definitely care, just like Snape would care about Lily's child. (So, Sirius and James were actually true love?)

Dumbledore also agreed with Finny's analysis of Horcruxes, and said,
"Now it seems that it is indeed the same as what you said, but I am very curious how he came back. You know, when I saw him in the Sorcerer's Stone this year, he was still a wandering spirit."

Feeney nods,

"I'm also curious about this point. Besides this, there is one more thing. I think maybe you need to know something,"

"you say,"

"During the raid in the alley not long ago, I saw one of the escaped attackers, and I'm pretty sure what I saw wasn't a hallucination,"

Feeney's tone was serious.
Dumbledore also became serious, and asked,
"who is it?"

"Peter Pettigrew!"

"This is impossible!"

Before Dumbledore could speak, Sirius spoke,
"Finny, you told me before that before handing it over to the Ministry of Magic, a dementor's kiss was performed. There is no way he can attack you again!"

Dumbledore sighed and said,

"In fact, he was sent behind the door of the Department of Mysteries after he was taken to the Ministry of Magic, so, in theory, he is dead."

Feeney nods,

"That's what I want to tell you. I'm pretty sure that person is Peter Pettigrew, and Lisa was injured because of him."

"Lisa? That female werewolf assistant of yours?"

Sirius asked suspiciously,
"Speaking of which, she is in a missing state just like you."

Feeney nodded and explained,

"She was seriously injured before, so I took her to hide together. I watched Pettigrew attack her, and then turned into a mouse to avoid my attack."

Nicole coughed twice and said,

"So, perhaps the answer to your two questions is one."

The three turned their heads to look at Nico, waiting for him to continue,

"Albus said that the mysterious man was still in a ghost state and was injured, and Finny also confirmed that the pettigret Peter you mentioned was sucked out of his soul, and then sent behind the veil leading to death , But now both of them are back, and they are planning an attack on Feeney. This reminds me of a hypothesis I made a long time ago."

No one spoke, they were all waiting for Nico to continue, but he stopped, looked at Dumbledore with a smile, blinked his eyes and asked,

"I said, Albus, shouldn't you let me, an old man who has lived for 500 years, sit down and prepare some food for me, and let me speak slowly."

As soon as these words came out, the tense atmosphere in the office suddenly disappeared, and it seemed a little funny instead.

Dumbledore waved helplessly, called the house elves of Hogwarts, brought some desserts and black tea, and then brought Nico, Finny and Sirius to his lounge upstairs in the office sat down on a set of sofas.

After eating a few pieces of pastries and drinking two sips of black tea, Nicole slowly expressed his guess,

"Maybe Finny doesn't know, but you do, Albus, I was in the Department of Mysteries for a while, too,"

Hearing this, Feeney asked very puzzled,

"Senior Nicole, aren't you French? Why do you work in the British Ministry of Magic?"

Nico laughed and said,

"Phinny, you don't think there is only one Department of Mysteries in the entire wizarding world, only one mysterious veil leading to death?"

Finny shook his head,

"Of course not. If that door is really so precious, will the elders be handed over to the Ministry of Magic for control?"

Nico nodded and said,
"It is indeed the case. There are many such doors in the magic world, and they are roughly the establishment locations of all the Ministry of Magic known today,"

Only then did Feeney understand why there are only a few ministries of magic in the UK, France, and Germany in the whole of Europe, and even in the entire magic world, there are only three in Europe, one in America, three in Asia, two in Africa, It turned out that the establishment of the Ministry of Magic depended on that door.

Nico continued,

"Although I said that, I was indeed in the Department of Mysteries in the United Kingdom. It was about 100 years ago. At that time, the British Ministry of Magic decided to study that door again, so they found me. I hope I can Get involved, offer some help, and since I'm also interested in the door that claims to be linked to death, I'll go,"

"After some of our research, we finally got some results. However, due to some special considerations, we did not tell the Ministry of Magic about these discoveries, but decided to hide them. Speaking of which, the silence of the Department of Mysteries in that area People are almost dead now, even if they become legends, it is estimated that they are almost the same today, "

"Okay, back to the topic, we found that the door is indeed the one that leads to death, or in other words, it is the only passage between the so-called underworld and the human world, through which the god of death travels between the human world and harvests souls,"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of those present, including Dumbledore, were all shocked. Even though Dumbledore and Finny had actually made some guesses, they were still the same, because what Nico said was very certain, as if, It was as if he had witnessed the appearance of the Grim Reaper.

"Yes, yes, we saw death."

Immediately after, Nicole uttered these scary words,

"Before the Department of Mysteries, there was a very magical magic item. It was a monocle eye, and the material was unknown. However, through that eye, you could see those souls who were going to die. We were also because of these souls. They all gathered at that door before they had a corresponding speculation, so they kept arranging people to wait there. Sure enough, on the day I was on duty, I saw him walk out of that door, and took away the soul of a legendary wizard. "

Dumbledore suddenly said at this moment,
"Sure enough, I was still wondering why the soul of not a single legendary wizard survived the thousands of years of existence in the magic world. I originally thought that perhaps all legendary wizards could die willingly, but Tom's Showing up made me realize that even legendary wizards don't want to die so easily,"

Nico nodded and said,
"That's right, after that, we saw the god of death appearing many times, and each time took away the soul of a legendary wizard. Later, we judged that if the souls below Chuang Qi were willing to die, they would be killed by that fan." The door attracts everyone to enter on their own, and after the legend, they have actually left the category of humans and are called demigods. Naturally, they will not be controlled by that door. This requires the god of death to act in person. Therefore, all demigods die The last souls will be taken to the underworld."

Finny suddenly interjected,

"However, as far as I know, a demigod is a state above legend, and that state needs to become a god within a certain period of time, otherwise it will die, or die unavoidably,"

Nico shook his head with a smile and said,

"What you said is a common saying after all, but in fact, according to my research, being able to control the soul of a person is actually out of the human level. Combined with the death of God, the legend is also a demigod." There is no problem, as for the realm you mentioned, it can actually be said to be a situation between legends and gods, and it also belongs to the realm of legends."

"Your so-called demigod is just a legend that ignited the fire. There are only two common ways. Establish a church, find believers, and let the beliefs of those believers become fuel for your own fire. This is the way the elders of the Presbyterian Church go. , the Presbyterian Church is actually their church, and all wizards are their believers. Another way is hard to see in today's magic world, and that is to go back to the source. According to legend, the earliest gods appeared in this way,"

Feeney's heart skipped a beat. This is the path he is taking now, and it is also the path taken by the three founders.

Nico went on.

"As for what you said about not becoming a god but only dying, there is actually a reason. The ignited divine fire consumes the accumulation of wizards. When the accumulation is exhausted, the magic power will be burned, followed by the spirit, and finally the soul, the divine fire. Once it is ignited, it cannot be extinguished. Therefore, the only ending to becoming a god is death. By the way, even if it is accumulated for thousands of years, it can only burn for a hundred years under the burning of divine fire. Those old guys in the Presbyterian Church generally survived It has been thousands of years, and their accumulation has been able to support the burning of the divine fire for thousands of years. This is also the reason why they cannot become gods without joining the Presbyterian Church, because they can completely ignite the divine fire at the end of the previous era. God's ladder. However, this is very risky, because no one can guarantee how many places will become gods in the next era, this is just the hole card of the old guys in the Presbyterian Church."

"Hey, I'm digressing again. The thing about that door is probably like this. In fact, it's not the important thing. The key point is the god of death. I don't know what the god of death looks like in your perception, but the truth about the god of death makes you I was amazed for a long time."

"The appearance of the god of death is almost the same as that of the dementor. The only difference is the gap in some details. It is also wearing a cloak, as if soaked in water, with scabbed palms, and the whole body is rotten. The same, except that he rotted more thoroughly, with almost no shreds of flesh visible on his body, full of bones, holding a huge sickle in his hand, with a huge chain wrapped around it, which will not suck away the happiness of the people around him, "

"This discovery made us also have some interest in the sudden appearance of magical creatures like dementors,"

"sudden appearance?"

It was still Finny who spoke, and he suddenly discovered that even though he had read many secret books in the Presbyterian Church, there were still many secrets he didn't know about the magic world.

This time it was Dumbledore who explained, Nico also took the opportunity to take a break, drank a few sips of black tea,

"Yes, dementors appeared suddenly. According to records, there were no such creatures as dementors in the world before that. Suddenly, one day, they appeared in Azkaban and lived there all the time. barely walks in the wizarding world,"

Nico nodded and added,

"Actually, there are still some gaps. After discovering that there may be some connection between the god of death and the dementors, we went to Azkaban. As a result, guess what we found in the bottom of Azkaban, in the bottom of the sea ?”

Hearing Nico's sudden naughtiness, the three of Feeney rolled their eyes and didn't talk to each other. Nico didn't care, and said the answer directly,
"Another door of death, yes, you heard it right, there is another door of death leading to the underworld in Azkaban, but that door collapsed because of unknown, so we speculate, The so-called dementors suddenly appeared, but because they walked out of that door, and then the door collapsed, and they couldn't go back. Even, because of the appearance of the god of death, we think that the god of death may also be a dementor before. , or that the dementors are actually the descendants of the god of death, or the race of the god of death."

Sirius opened his mouth and asked about the main purpose of Nicole's telling these past events.

"Although these things are amazing, does this have anything to do with the return of Peter and the mysterious man?"

Finny said solemnly,
"If the conjectures that Senior Nicole said are true, then it's relevant,"

He slowly expressed his thoughts,

"If the dementors and the gods of death are the same race, then the soul may not be food for them, but a necessary instinct, as if it is a job, and the kiss of the dementor is nothing but the door. Another way to take a soul to the underworld."

Nico nodded approvingly,
"Finny's conjecture is what I want to say. It is very possible, because only in this way can we explain why the Peter you mentioned can regain his soul after being given the dementor's kiss,"

"So, his body should also be pushed through that door, but what you didn't expect from the Ministry of Magic and Feeney is that his soul and body are in one place, plus he didn't die, so,"
