Chapter 287 A sure-fire situation!

Zhang Xiao raised his head in shock and looked at the starry sky. The light reflected by the door was still there.

Like a small sun, it stubbornly stopped in the sky of stars.

Several light spots suddenly appeared on the illusory light door.

Just as it reflected the light, the door also reflected the light onto the stars above.

These points of light are so dazzling that they even eclipse the stars.

Zhang Xiao stared at this dazzling scene in stunned silence, and suddenly couldn't help blurting out:

"Fairy Star Cluster!"

Along with Zhang Xiao's voice, Dumbledore's slightly surprised voice sounded:

"The Pleiades?"

Zhang Xiao immediately looked at the old principal and found that the principal's deep blue eyes, like the ocean, were also looking at him with a smile.

"Zhang, did you see it too?"

Zhang Xiao nodded. The Andromeda star cluster, also called the Pleiades star cluster, is one of the few star clusters visible to the naked eye.

This is the first thing I came across in astronomy class. How could I not remember it?

But why did Voldemort place the Pleiades star cluster in the starry sky?

At this moment, the sunlight projected by the illusory light gate and the Pleiades star cluster suddenly slowly began to move towards each other.

The moment it approached, the light spot of the sun suddenly shined brightly, while the light of the stars of the Pleiades cluster converged under this strong light.

Dumbledore was suddenly stunned. He seemed to have thought of something.

Zhang Xiao turned around and saw that the illusory light door slowly condensed into reality, turning from illusion into reality.

The door showed the same as on the ceiling, and then slowly opened.

Dumbledore came over and stood next to Zhang Xiao, vaguely blocking him behind him.

When the doors were all opened, even Dumbledore fell silent.

Inside the door is a large space, with blue sky and white clouds, gentle breeze, warm sunshine - and an endless sea of ​​dandelions!

"This is."

Dumbledore looked at this scene in shock. Not only him, but also Zhang Xiao had been stunned for a long time. In any case, the scene before them had never appeared in their imagination.

Dumbledore once again opened his hand and stretched forward. After sensing it carefully for a while, he whispered:

"It should be safe."

He was silent for a while, then suddenly strode forward, and Zhang Xiao hurriedly followed.

Until I walked into this room, I felt like I was on the grassland. Everything was so real. The endless dandelions were like a dream, swaying gently.

Along with their steps, wisps of wind came out of nowhere, and the wind blew the dandelions.

Those small, umbrella-like things cheered and detached from the round umbrella handle.

Rising with the wind.

Dance and drift with their steps.

An old man and a young man were walking like this. Looking down from a high place, it was a picturesque scenery.

No one spoke, as if any sound would ruin the dream.

Their goal is clear, because in the center of this dandelion sea, there is a high stone platform.

Not long after, the two came to the edge of the stone platform.

Once again, it exceeded Dumbledore and Zhang Xiao's expectations.

Lying on the rough stone platform was a woman who didn't look very old.

It was a girl wearing a gray coarse cloth dress. She looked very clean, with thin and dull hair.

She is not good-looking. On the contrary, she has an average appearance and a pale complexion.

She was barefoot, with her hands folded on her belly, but her expression looked like she was asleep.

The most eye-catching thing is the ring she wears on the ring finger of her left hand, which is inlaid with a black stone engraved with the Peverell crest.

Marvolo's Ring - the Resurrection Stone!

"Merope"

Dumbledore murmured softly, with a sigh in his voice.

Merope. Merope?

Zhang Xiao frowned, always feeling that this name was very familiar.

Suddenly, he remembered the scene on the door before, as well as the memories buried deep in his memory for a long time.

He repeated in shock:

"Merope?"

Dumbledore nodded and said extremely complicatedly:

"Melope Gaunt!"

Merope Gaunt, Voldemort's biological mother, was a poor woman who chose to give birth to Tom in a Muggle orphanage out of despair and died.

The origin of it all.

Apart from this

Zhang Xiao looked back at the door and the still dazzling pattern.

In addition, in Greek mythology, Merope was the daughter of the Titan Atlas. She was the only one of her sisters to marry a mortal, and was therefore ridiculed by the other gods.

More importantly, Merope is also a star in the Pleiades, the Andromeda star cluster.

But Merope's light was dimmer than the other stars.

I understood that the light spots of the sun and the six shining light spots on the door together constitute the complete Aldebara star cluster.

The spot of light where the sun is located is exactly where Merope is, but Merope, who should have been dim and invisible, is shining brightly at this moment!

Is this Voldemort's idea?

Zhang Xiao was almost stunned by what he discovered. He looked at the endless sea of ​​dandelions.

The flower language of dandelions is - unrealistic love that cannot last!

This obviously refers to Merope’s deformed love affair with old Tom Riddle who relied on love potions!

Voldemort. No, did Tom Riddle also long for maternal love?

"Zhang, I think you should take a look at this."

Dumbledore was obviously thinking more than himself. The emotional headmaster gently brushed the slate above Merope's head.

I saw a line of small words appearing where Dumbledore brushed his hand.

"It is said that turning the Resurrection Stone will resurrect the person you want. I turned it many times."

I wipe it!

Who said Voldemort didn't know about the Resurrection Stone? Who said that? he knows! He is not a fool, how could he not understand what the thing in his hand is.

Zhang Xiao recalled it carefully. Dumbledore did say that Voldemort might not know about the Resurrection Stone, but then said that he wouldn't care if he did.

Bah, he was obviously the young man who lied to Harry!

But Voldemort was Voldemort after all, and he was able to break free from the Resurrection Stone.

That kind of temptation is not something that ordinary people can resist, but it also illustrates Voldemort's lack of emotion.

The more emotional a person is, the harder it is to escape the influence of the Resurrection Stone.

Zhang Xiao smacked his lips, and then he couldn't help but tremble as if he was electrocuted.

Wait a minute, Dumbledore!

Sure enough, Dumbledore only had eyes for the Resurrection Stone, and he looked at that gem so eagerly and intently.

Just like Gollum saw the Lord of the Rings, it actually made people feel a little scared.

"Professor! Professor!"

Dumbledore did not look away, but said absently:

"What's wrong? Zhang?"

It’s over! The professor is trapped!

"Should we check to see if there is any evil spell set on the ring?"

When he said this, Zhang Xiao had already opened his eyes and stared hard at the ring, trying to find something unusual.

But it can only be said that the Deathly Hallows is indeed the Deathly Hallows. In the eyes of the Dharma, this black gem-like thing has been emitting a dark light!

Fortunately, Dumbledore seems to have some sense left.

He was silent for a while, muttering something Zhang Xiao couldn't hear, and streams of light flashed on the ring.

Dumbledore's voice was filled with joy:

"No, it's safe."

As he said this, he had already reached for the damn ring.

Time seems to be pulled away at this moment, and everything around you is slowing down.

No curse? How could it not be?

Am I wrong?

Zhang Xiao raised his head suddenly, as if a storm was gathering in his mind.

wrong! Something's wrong!

So far, all measures have been passive defense and blocking opponents.

This is not Voldemort's character, he will definitely kill him!

What if everything before was just foreshadowing?

How about creating a persona that still has a hint of warmth and love in your heart?

The kindness of good people is worthless, but the warmth of bad people is praised.

If a person as evil as Voldemort suddenly shows a trace of human warmth, the lethality of this move will be unparalleled!

Zhang Xiao felt a deep cold all over the place, and he suddenly realized that everything in front of him seemed to be the most lethal to Dumbledore.

In other words, Tom laid out a sure-fire situation step by step, step by step, in accordance with what Dumbledore most longed to see.

Tom must have investigated a lot of things, and his influence on the purebloods was enough for him to know a lot of things.

So he knew what Dumbledore's biggest regret was, and he also knew how tempting the Resurrection Stone was to Dumbledore. It was like an obsession!

If it is a game of skill in the cave, it is the pinnacle of Voldemort's magical skills and knowledge.

But this game is a game of human nature, a gentle knife that cuts straight into the heart.

This is Voldemort, the Dark Lord with unparalleled charisma, insight into people's hearts, and a huge wave in the wizarding world!

Dumbledore lost this round.

Just as Tom thought, the more powerful a wizard is, the less likely he is to be awakened when he is trapped in a demonic barrier.

Dumbledore is like this, he has rich emotions but is extremely calm.

It is difficult to fall into that kind of madness and obsession. From Zhang Xiao's knowledge, he has only fallen into it twice.

Once it was the potion of regret in the cave, and the other time it was the resurrection stone.

Everything around him was still slowing down. Dumbledore had picked up the ring and was slowly putting it on his finger.

Zhang Xiao found that he was surprisingly calm, and he had unknowingly entered the realm of emptiness.

The principal has just checked the ring and there is nothing wrong with it.

But if I were Tom, how would I set the curse in motion?

Yes, even though Dumbledore was possessed, his remaining sanity was enough for him to instinctively check the ring.

So if I were Voldemort, I would put the curse on the stone when I turned it.

When the deceased gradually returns, his mind is shaken and his defenses are at their lowest.

The ring slowly reached the first knuckle.

Having no other choice, Zhang Xiao stretched out his hand, and the lightning-struck wooden wand jumped into his hand with a buzzing sound.

The piercing chirping accompanied by the electric arc instantly spread to the surface of the wand.

Then come on!
