Harry Potter's Bastard

"So...... Tom. Riddle has a self-aware Horcrux?"

Solim was as suspected, and after explaining the whole thing, the first thing his great-grandfather paid attention to was Riddle's special Horcrux.

"That's right. Solim nodded, "The soul connection between him and the Dark Lord himself is so strong that he can sense the state of the other party, and vice versa. "

"That's a good idea—" Levittheath squinted at something, and then asked, "How many Horcruxes did he absorb?" or how many are left?"

"Hufflepuff's Gold Cup, the Snake Called Nagini......"

"I'm not asking you about Voldemort's hands, I'm asking how many of the Horcruxes named Riddle have left in their hands unabsorbed. "

"I don't know. Solim said, "But the ring and the journal have been absorbed. "

"You said the Resurrection Stone is in El's hands?" Levittis shifted his attention again.

"Yes, I gave it to ~ grandpa. "

"This kid. Levits snorted, as if he was not very pleased with some of his son's practices.

"Your intelligence is useful. Levitsis seemed to finally remember the information provided by Solim, and praised it somewhat perfunctorily.

"Can I ask...... What's next for the family?" asked Solim cautiously.

"These things have nothing to do with you for the time being. Sure enough, Levitsis didn't mean to talk to Solim about these things at all, and Solim was still just a "child" even if he was taken seriously by Cadmus.

"Your grandfather is coming back today, and if you want to meet him, you can wait for him in the castle. As Solim was about to leave, Levitsis suddenly said, "If you want, go and see your eldest brother in the dungeon, I heard that he has been talking about you lately." "

Solim was kicked out.

Although the matter was done, Solim was still a little concerned about his great-grandfather's attitude. He seems to be more interested in Riddle's anomalous Horcrux, just like Ogle had in the beginning. It seems that in the eyes of wizards of their level, Riddle's presence is very valuable.

Solim wasn't going to meet with Elrond, he knew what his grandfather was doing when he came back, and he was going to strengthen the defenses of Fair Island.

After becoming a Grand Wizard, Elrond's means as a spell solver rose to a higher level. Even the Grand Wizard would have taken a long time to break through his defenses on Fair Island, and that would have been enough time for the people there to retreat. If he hadn't had enough faith, he wouldn't have allowed Solim to place Elena on Fair Island.

Solim had finally returned, he had planned to visit the family library, but Levitesis' last words made Solim a little concerned.

Dax, that gorilla muttering about himself?

Solim sneered inwardly. Of course, the idiot will remember himself, and presumably the situation of that day will always be replaying in the stupid orangutan's head, and regret why he said so much nonsense that he found a chance to fight back.

Solim, the dungeon of Selwyn Castle, hadn't been there, but he knew where. Even Selwyn is not allowed to enter the dungeon without permission, which is guarded by wizards all year round and has many magical defenses. If it weren't for Levitsis' approval, the wizard guarding the dungeon wouldn't have let Solim in.

The dungeon is different from what Solim had in mind. It's clean, and even dry to some extent. No unpleasant smell, no humid environment. The layout here is exactly the same as the hotel. If you put a thick carpet on the stone floor and replace the iron prison doors on both sides of the aisle with wooden ones, some people might really think that this is a medieval dungeon-themed hotel.

Although it was underground, it was well lit, and Solim could easily see some details: for example, before passing through a cell, Solim noticed that the lock on the door had rusted into an iron lump.

"This is where the prisoners live. "

Cell boss - let's call it that. The wizard who led the way didn't introduce himself to Solim.

"They will be locked up here after they are tortured. There is one exception - your big brother. "

The cell boss was very talkative, and for him, who didn't see many strangers, Solim would have been a good listener.

"The family has strict punishments, and if you make a mistake, you will receive whatever punishment you make. Unfortunately, the mistakes made by your eldest brother are unforgivable. "

colluding with outsiders to kill people. This is unacceptable in any pure-blood family, let alone the Richie family who Dax is colluding with. Solim had even wondered if Dax had fallen under some clever Imperius curse. Otherwise, no one with a brain capacity of more than the 12th crucible would do this, and Dax didn't just do it, he did it in the family castle.

Naturally, Dax paid a terrible price for this unwise behavior. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Wizards are human, but in some ways they are different from ordinary humans, so the wizards who torture them through torture are not very useful.

Of course, a proper Drill Spell is indispensable. But physical torture such as nail pulling, red-hot soldering irons, and interrogation chairs is almost non-existent. But even without torturing the prisoner's body, wizards still have many ways to pull out the information they want to know.

Perhaps a strong-willed person could survive the punishment of ordinary people and keep silent, but this set did not work very well for wizards - the elixir was so good that wizards did not develop a culture of cruel punishment.

"Your eldest brother hasn't spent a day in a cell since he came here. "[]

The cell leader led Solim to the staircase of a black hole.

"Go down by yourself, and I won't follow." "

Looking ahead in the dark, Solim didn't say anything, he just summoned his Patronus to provide the light.

The cell boss pouted at the sight of Solim's Phoenix Patronus, but said nothing as well.

As soon as he stepped up the stairs, Solim realized that this place was different from the top - there was wind here.

The sudden cold wind made Solim shiver. He knew that this was the underground of the castle, and that there would be no wind in an enclosed environment. But now it's not just windy, it's cold. This reminded Solim of December at Hogwarts.

"Magic. Solim felt that his assumptions were reasonable.

Above is the prisoner's cell, so this is naturally the place of torture, and the main function of this place is to make the prisoner suffer.

Solim's footsteps echoed in this enclosed place, and with the darkness of the environment, it was very felt. The area below is small, and the light is secured, so Solim can easily find Dax.

He was hung on the cold wall - naked.

"Who are you?"

After a long time, Dax's voice was not quite the same as Solim's impression.

Solim didn't say anything, he looked around, and then sat down on the small wooden bench opposite Dax.

"Can't you see?" Solim looked at Dax, who was chained to the wall, his hair hanging down so long that it was impossible to see his face. Obviously, the people here do not have the habit of cleaning up the prisoners.

"It's you!"

Hearing Solim's voice, Dax suddenly raised his head to look this way, but Solim noticed that Dax's eyes were gray.
