Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

"Why do you always misunderstand me like this? I'm not some kind of violent maniac, why would I hit you?" Leifield said, displeased.

Tom suppressed the unease in his heart and said loudly, "You better not!"

Leifield took out a large bar of chocolate and stuffed it into Tom's hands. "You should recover first, and then we'll continue exploring! I have to say… this Slytherin's legacy has completely piqued my interest!"

While Tom silently munched on the chocolate to recover, Leifield squatted down to the side and began studying the two knight statues on the ground.

These combat golems could already be considered high-end goods!

At least, the combat golems disguised as stone statues outside Hogwarts were not as powerful as these.

And these stone statues… if descendants of Slytherin hadn't been entering this place throughout the ages and consuming these stone statues, who knows how many would have appeared just now!

However, it also shows how high the combat skills of the previous students were.

Tom risked his life to take down two statues, but the previous students probably had to face far more than two statues!

"It's a pity… If you hadn't blasted these two knight statues into smithereens just now, I might have been able to learn something from them…" Leifield said with some regret.

"Then what could I have done? If I didn't blow this kind of thing to bits, what if it wasn't completely dead and suddenly jumped up and stabbed me? This thing isn't human, it's not like blowing off its head will definitely kill it…" Tom said weakly. "Speaking of which, do you have any water… this chocolate is stuck in my throat…"

"Tom, you're a wizard… you can use the Aguamenti charm. I just praised you for using your brain!" Leifield said in annoyance.

Tom hummed and didn't dare to say anything else, because Leifield's mood didn't seem very good.

Suddenly, Leifield picked up a small piece of broken green gemstone from the ground, with strong magical traces attached to it.

Carefully sensing it, Leifield discovered that this was the unique magical fluctuation from the two combat golems just now.

Moreover, it seemed that something was slowly dissipating…

Leifield quickly used the power of Nightmare magic to explore.

What was dissipating was… the power of the soul?

"Uh, what's that?" Tom asked, while using the Transfiguration Charm to turn the chocolate wrapper into a simple cup.

"This should be the core of this kind of combat golem… well, it's a pity that only half of it is left," Leifield said regretfully.

"You know, you can't blame me for that," Tom said helplessly, "You didn't help, how could I hold back?"

"I didn't mean to blame you, but… it's still a pity. Even if we don't talk about the alchemy craftsmanship, just the materials are extremely precious," Leifield said with a sigh.

Having urgently studied some alchemy knowledge in the past few days, Leifield now had some knowledge of alchemy materials. He could tell at a glance that this was a special material synthesized from several extremely precious minerals using alchemy techniques.

"How precious?" Tom picked up the cup, took a sip of the water summoned by the Aguamenti charm, and then smacked his lips slightly in disgust… it had no taste…

"Well, if it were complete, the gold galleons obtained from selling it to those alchemy masters would be enough to buy a shop in Diagon Alley."

"What! ?" Tom looked at Leifield in shock, "Is it really that exaggerated!"

Diagon Alley is the most densely populated place for wizards in the British wizarding world!

It can be said that every inch of land is worth its weight in gold!

Being able to buy a shop in this kind of place, how many gold galleons would that require!

This is buying! Not renting!

"Maybe it wasn't that exaggerated in Slytherin's time, but thousands of years have passed, and many materials that used to be common have now become very scarce. This has made some materials and experiments that were not expensive thousands of years ago extremely expensive now…" Leifield wrapped the incomplete core in parchment and put it in his pocket.

"Then there are so many broken statues here! Hurry up and see if there are any complete ones!" Tom struggled to crawl up from the ground, stopped drinking the water, stopped eating the chocolate, and started digging hard in the pile of fragments next to him.

"Tom, why have you become so greedy? I haven't even said anything yet," Leifield said in surprise.

"No… it has nothing to do with money! I'm just… thinking for myself!" Tom's voice was trembling.

Damn it! The sky is falling!

In order to make the subsequent retaliation less intense, it would be best to quickly find an undamaged one and hand it over!

Tom felt like crying for a while.

"Sigh! Tom, it's not that bad… I'm not some kind of devil…" Tom's unusual behavior still made Leifield guess some of his thoughts.

Finished! This kid Tom has been given ptsd by me!

This made Leifield's remaining conscience faintly ache.

Alas, as expected, you still can't have a conscience… without a conscience, it naturally won't hurt.

"Ha! Found it!" Tom's surprised voice interrupted Levid's thoughts as he presented a complete core to Levid!

The Slytherin descendants who had cleared the level before also realized during the battle that they had to smash the heads of these combat puppets to kill them.

Therefore, almost all of these puppets had their heads blown off.

Because of this, almost no complete cores survived.

The fact that Tom could find a complete one at this time was surprising even to Levid.

"Could this be exchanged for a shop in Diagon Alley?" Tom asked sincerely.

"If it's for rent, it can be rented for a month," Levid assessed seriously.

"Ah? Why? Isn't this complete?" Tom said in surprise.

"Because something is missing inside."

"What's missing?"

"A mature and complete soul," Levid said calmly.

"Wh...what?" Tom looked at Levid in shock, "What soul?"

"A human soul... the soul of a powerful Muggle knight! That's why these combat puppets have such comprehensive combat skills! Moreover... when the core is exposed, the magic失效, the soul will quickly dissipate. Therefore, a core that could originally buy a shop is now only enough to rent one for a month, because it has lost its inherent spirituality!"

"Are you saying that Slytherin used human souls to refine combat puppets?! One soul for one puppet?!" Tom looked at the wreckage all over the ground, his voice trembling slightly.

Levid sighed, "What's so strange about that? This... is black magic..."

"Then... were these people whose souls were extracted guilty?" Tom asked.

"What are you thinking? Where would you find so many guilty knight souls?"

"Then... did Slytherin collect these on the Muggle battlefields?" Tom still had some wishful thinking in his heart.

"Tom... these souls were all extracted alive! How could they be collected on the battlefield? Moreover... this is just a few Muggle knights... If the rumors about Slytherin are true, would he really care about the lives of a few Muggle knights, as long as it allows him to complete his black magic?"

Tom sighed, helplessly accepting this cruel reality, and a trace of loss inexplicably appeared in his heart.

"It seems that the naive Gaunt must have been disappointed later..."

Judging from the current situation, how could the Slytherin who could do such a thing not be a stubborn and pure pure-blood supremacist?

He despised even Muggle-born wizards, let alone real Muggles.

Perhaps, in Slytherin's eyes, Muggles weren't even human...

As for advocating black magic, there was even less controversy, these combat puppets were solid proof!

"Tom, how do you feel knowing that your ancestor wasn't a good person?"

Tom shrugged, "No special feeling, I'm used to it."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"You see, before I met you, I was the only bad person around me. But after meeting you... where are the good people around me?" Tom looked at Levid meaningfully.

"That's slander!" Levid jumped up, "I can't do things like extracting the souls of living people and refining combat puppets! I... I'll just extract some from animals, or bad guys at most..."

"Ah, yes, yes, yes... Levid is the savior, the kindest person in the world! Everything he does is just to make the people of the world live better!" Tom said loudly.

"Hey! Tom! Keep a low profile! Just telling the truth, no need to use such an exaggerated tone!"

Tom: ...

"The thickness of your skin is also invincible!"

"You always have a lot of misunderstandings about me, Tom, I'm really a good person!"

Tom didn't speak, just sat back down to the side, eating chocolate to replenish his strength.

"Forget it..." Levid said helplessly, turning his head to look at the two weapons on the ground.

Just now, these two weapons were able to block spells!

It can be seen that these are also good things!

Levid bent down, grabbed the hilt of the two-handed greatsword, and tried to pick up the sword...

But, he was just a weak little wizard... he really didn't have that kind of strength!

So, no matter how hard he tried, the two-handed greatsword still seemed to be welded to the ground, motionless!

"Ha..." Tom couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I just remembered something happy... like, I'll be able to see the legacy left by my ancestor soon," Tom quickly explained.

"Is that so? That's indeed something to be happy about." Levid casually waved the magic wand in his hand.

The two-handed greatsword actually shrunk down immediately!

Seeing Levid easily shrink the two-handed greatsword proportionally, and then pick it up with one hand.

Tom's expression was as if he had seen a ghost.

"This sword... isn't it immune to magic? How is your Transfiguration working?" Tom said in surprise.

"Don't ask so much about high-end magic, you little brat!"
