Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

Annie stared at the silver ball, completely stunned.

No… you guys actually found something!?

No! It must be something unrelated to that magical power!

Leifeld picked up the small ball and looked at it, then handed it to Tom.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be goblin metal! I saw this peculiar metal produced by goblins in a book about alchemy," Leifeld said slowly. "They used to use this metal to make weapons to resist wizards…"

"Goblin metal… is it impossible to use magic on this thing?" Tom suddenly asked.

"You can try," Leifeld said with a smile.

Tom had just taken out his wand when Annie couldn't wait any longer and walked over.

"Swish!"

Annie used the Levitation Charm on the small ball.

However, the small ball didn't move at all, making Annie's spellcasting look a little silly.

"No wonder I couldn't use magic on this slate just now. It turns out it's because of the goblin metal," Leifeld said with a look of realization. "I heard that goblin metal is insulated against magic and can isolate magic…"

Leifeld's casual remark struck Annie like a bolt of lightning.

If the small ball contained that magical power…

Then, even with the goblins' own instruments, it would be impossible to detect!

Because goblin metal can effectively isolate magic!

"How to open this small ball… cough, I think we shouldn't be too happy too soon. What if it's not in there?" Annie said somewhat excitedly.

If the goblin metal ball really contained that magical power… then she, Annie, would have made a great contribution today!

"Oh, there's a small button here," Leifeld said, placing the small ball in a small hole on the ground and then retreating far away.

Leifeld used Transfiguration to turn a leaf on the ground into a small vine, and then controlled the vine to press the button.

However, when the vine approached the goblin metal, it suddenly trembled violently.

This was the goblin metal's ability to insulate magic interfering with the magic.

However, Leifeld's Transfiguration skills were still very good.

The vine managed to press the button on the small ball before disintegrating.

"Ding!"

With a crisp metallic sound, the small ball opened like a flower petal.

Then, a cloud of blackish-red, reddish-gray mist slowly floated out of the small ball.

When Tom saw this cloud of mist, his eyes couldn't help but widen.

If Leifeld hadn't told him that this thing was fake, he would have been unable to restrain himself and would have rushed up to take this magical power for himself!

It must be said that this guy Leifeld is still very capable!

It's one thing to make a goblin metal ball, but he even made this legendary magical power so realistic…

It's exactly as described in the manuscript!

This shows that this guy has indeed been secretly doing a lot of work during his frequent disappearances!

On the other side, Annie was now directly silent.

The magical power that they had spent so much effort to find was actually found by Leifeld and Tom just like that?!

For a moment, Annie began to doubt her so-called "rich" outdoor exploration experience.

But that's not the most important thing. The important thing is… she really found this magic!

Leifeld and Tom naturally saw Annie's expression completely.

"Very good, it's finally not in vain for my efforts these days," Leifeld said with a smile.

This sentence meant different things to Tom and Annie.

Tom felt that Leifeld was lamenting that his "fake" efforts during this period had not been in vain.

And Annie felt that Leifeld was lamenting that his efforts to find information and deduce the location during this period had not been in vain.

"Then… what should we do with this magical power?" Tom looked at the magical power with a very greedy gaze.

On this point, he didn't even need to act… he really longed to obtain this power.

But unfortunately, Leifeld had told him that this was a fake he had created…

Leifeld said with a smile: "Ladies first, Annie, this magical power is yours."

"Me? This… this isn't good, right?!" Annie was taken aback.

In fact, she felt that this magical power should belong to Leifeld.

After all, if she put aside her Death Eater identity and only looked at the contributions of the three people on the surface.

Then Leifeld's contribution was the greatest. No matter what, Leifeld should take it.

Leifeld smiled and said: "If you hadn't led the way tonight, we might have gotten lost in the Forbidden Forest. We wouldn't have been able to find this place at all. So, this magical power should belong to you. Don't worry, there are still many locations, and those locations should also have this magical power. When the time comes, we will still need you to continue to lead us."

Tom looked at Leifeld in surprise. It turned out that Leifeld suddenly pretended not to understand the map tonight and even pulled him to act together, all for the sake of this moment?

Terrible! Too terrible!

After hearing Leifeld say this, Annie didn't decline anymore.

After all, without her leading the way, Leifeld and Tom might indeed get lost.

In addition, she was originally quite eager for this power…

"Since you've said so… then this magical power is mine." Annie stepped forward, stretched out her wand, and gently touched the magical power.

Then, according to what was recorded in the manuscript, she used her wand to put the magical power in front of her nose.

Then, the magical power automatically turned into strands of black mist and was sucked into Annie's nose…

After a moment, Annie suddenly opened her eyes, and a red light flashed in the depths of her pupils!

Tom asked somewhat nervously: "How is it? Is it effective?"

No wonder he was nervous. If Annie saw through this fake, then all their performances along the way would have been in vain.

However, what Tom didn't know was… that there was actually no fake!

That magical power was completely genuine remnants!

It's just that Leifeld didn't want to tell Tom now.

Still that sentence, people won't cherish things that are obtained too easily.

Leifeld didn't want Tom to obtain this power so easily.

There is no error in the first, the first hair, the first content, one is in one look!

In this way, when Tom goes through all kinds of hardships and finally obtains this power from Leifeld's hands…

He will be more likely to be grateful to Leifeld.

Since ancient times, deep affection cannot be retained, only routines can win people's hearts…

It's just that in this way, among all the people who know this magical power… only Tom himself foolishly believes that these powers are fake…

Poor Tom is being played with and doesn't even know it…

"I now… feel great!" Annie excitedly felt the changes in herself!

The "remnants" that Leifeld put in the goblin ball were not much, just enough for Annie to clearly feel that she was becoming stronger.

"Lightning Explosion!"

Annie raised her wand and pointed it at a big tree next to her!

"Boom!"

The poor big tree was instantly blown to pieces.

"Great! This is a spell that I couldn't use at all before! I didn't expect that not only can I use it now, but the effect is also surprisingly good!" Annie said excitedly.

Tom didn't doubt it either. On the contrary, he was glad that Annie didn't doubt it!

There was no way, Leifeld had given him a preventive shot from the beginning.

This is a potion that can strengthen the body and spirit! If the spirit and physical strength are improved, it's not surprising that the combat power is temporarily improved!

"Very good! It just so happens that it's not early now. Let's find time to look for other places!" Leifeld suggested.

"Okay…" Annie was very excited now, so she didn't notice at all that Leifeld had quietly picked up the goblin metal ball when he left.

There was no way… he didn't have much goblin metal on hand either. He only extracted this little bit from the giant's collar after digging out the giant that attacked him back then after confirming the plan…

Now, thinking about the refreshing taste at that time still makes Leifeld feel nauseous…

On the way back, Annie was still constantly trying out Transfiguration, turning a leaf in her hand into various shapes.

This made Annie even more excited.

Because before tonight, she couldn't do such delicate Transfiguration at all!

Overnight, Annie not only found the right way to find this magic, but also became more powerful than before!

Annie decided to report this matter back to Nurmengard tonight!

"It's best if only the three of us know about the existence of this power," Leifeld suddenly said: "This magic has endless potential. The more you absorb, the stronger you become… Even if the truth can't be hidden in the end, we have to collect enough before that!"

Leifeld's sudden words made Annie's heart flutter.

Anyway, everyone can't find this magic now, or else… after I absorb enough, I'll tell Nurmengard?

In that case, I can become stronger and make contributions to Nurmengard…

Wait! Wouldn't it be even better if I didn't tell Nurmengard at all?

At this moment, Annie's original ambition, also because of Leifeld's intentional or unintentional reminder, slowly grew a sprout…

It can be said that in the face of the temptation of absolute power, no one's loyalty can be trusted!

Especially a Slytherin!

When the rebellious heart arises, you suddenly feel that the world is wide!

It's decided! Anyway, they can't find it themselves! They don't know that we've already found it!

Fortunately… I still remember many of the contents recorded in that notebook! As long as I quietly…

Thinking of this, Annie's palms were a little sweaty!

I don't know if it's because of excitement, or because she's nervous about betraying Grindelwald…

Leifeld glanced at Annie's expression, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up.

Tom shuddered when he saw it from the side…

He easily led Annie into the abyss…

This guy is too scary!
