The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts
Chapter 389: Gift from the Gatekeeper Grindelwald
In the original book, Grindelwald was killed by Voldemort after he broke into Nurmengard Prison and asked for the elder wand to no avail.
At that time, Grindelwald had been imprisoned in Nurmengard Prison for decades.
The strength of a wizard's magic power mainly depends on his physical fitness and mental strength.
The Ministry of Magic stipulates that wizards become adults at the age of 17, because 17 is the stage when human mental and physical development reaches its peak, which naturally brings powerful magic power.
As time goes by, some wizards, like Dumbledore, work hard physically and mentally with the blessing of talent, and their strength will remain at this peak period for longer and become stronger.
As for Grindelwald, a wizard who lacks food and clothing and lives in an extremely harsh environment, no matter how strong he is at his peak, he will be like other ordinary old wizards, and his strength will be swallowed up by time.
It makes perfect sense that he was killed by Voldemort, who was almost in his prime, without a wand.
Even so, Link had been extremely wary of Grindelwald before.
After all, the name Grindelwald has almost become a legend of an era!
But now after actual observation, Link unexpectedly discovered that Grindelwald was far weaker than he expected.
Time seems to have completely taken away his spellcasting ability, turning him into an ordinary old homeless man.
A ferocious smile spread across Link's face. He walked slowly and did not answer Grindelwald's questions, just looking at the legend from different angles.
Arkham, who has followed Link for the longest time, has already understood Link's thoughts.
The sealing array on its forehead shone slightly, and its cowering body expanded, turning into a giant python and squatting on the ground, spitting out snake letters, and looked at Grindelwald coldly with its golden vertical pupils, extremely He showed a humane sneer that looked exactly like Link's.
"Hisss!~"
A terrifying hissing sound came from Arkham's mouth accompanied by the rapid swallowing of the snake letter.
Link stopped, fumbled with his wand and translated:
"Do you have any last words?"
Grindelwald seemed to have taken life and death lightly for a long time. Hearing this, his expression did not change at all. He just shook his head and said:
"You can't kill me."
"Why do you feel this way?" Link asked, "Is it because Dumbledore won't kill you, and you happen to think that I was sent by Dumbledore?"
Grindelwald didn't answer, he just looked at Link calmly with his exposed cloudy eye.
Link didn't take it seriously and continued:
"You know? Before I came here, an old woman told me that the reason why I appeared here was entirely the result of Dumbledore's guidance, not my own will. In fact, I have always been in Dumbledore's place. within the control.
Although the old woman was most likely pretending to be the Riddler and talking nonsense just to stay alive, I have to admit that I was a little uneasy or a little panicked by what she said.
Because Dumbledore does seem to have the ability to do this.
You and I are probably the people who know him best in the world, so you should also know it, right?
Dumbledore's wits are so perverted.
do you know?Dumbledore's current enemy is a guy who has just emerged in recent decades and calls himself the Second Dark Lord.
He made many Horcruxes and placed them all over the country, making it difficult for us to kill him completely.
In order to deal with this guy, Dumbledore specially designed a set of interlocking plans that were extremely complex and ingenious.
According to my estimation, there is a high probability that the second generation of the Dark Lord will be tricked to death.
The problem now is that it would be terrible if I was controlled by Dumbledore and became a less important part of that plan.
You should understand what I want to say, right? "
Grindelwald nodded and smiled with a rare smile:
"Then your current situation is really bad. Albus has always been a bastard. If you stand with him, there is a possibility of being sacrificed by him at any time, no matter how good your relationship with him is. "
"That's it!" Link snapped his fingers and said, "That old woman gave me a wake-up call and made me understand that my current strength has grown enough to be worthy of being exploited by Dumbledore. So that I don't get too carried away. It's a pity that I have fallen a little deep. If I want to break free from the control that may not exist, I will use some more extreme methods.
For example, didn't Dumbledore want to kill you?
Then I will kill you and show him. "
Grindelwald curled his lips and said:
"The method is a bit childish, but it's excusable. After all, by the way, you might be able to take some inheritance from me and use it to improve your strength, right?"
Hearing this, Link's brows suddenly raised.
Grindelwald's words spoke to his heart.
As an epic wizard who could compete with Dumbledore at the same time, Grindelwald is also an absolute boss in the plot. Link can almost be sure that killing Grindelwald will earn at least one gold skill point.
This is another important reason that prompted Link to murder Grindelwald.
Of course.
If you have friendly contact with Grindelwald and develop gradually, you may be able to develop more skill points from him.
But in this current form, Link has no time to linger.
In this magical world dominated by wizards, power is the most eternal topic.
Link must increase his personal strength and the power of the Foley family as soon as possible, so that he can break free from the seemingly absent control in the next battle, and even become a chess player like Dumbledore and Voldemort.
But the question is, how did Grindelwald know what Link was thinking?
You must know that during the entire meeting, Link's Occlumency was always operating at full power!
"I know more than you think."
Seeing Link's reaction, Grindelwald stood up from the ground as he spoke.
Only then did Link discover that there was actually a wooden trap door underneath Grindelwald. There were two iron rings on the door and on the ground, but there was no door lock on it.
"I said, child, you can't kill me." Grindelwald pointed to the trap door and said, "Because the reason why I am still alive here is because I have to guard this door. This There is a very terrifying power hidden inside. If you kill me, then you will either stay here instead of me, or the power inside will come out and cause a huge disaster.
Of course, it will go to you first, after all, you are the closest living creature to it. "
Link stared straight at the trap door.
He actually believed Grindelwald's words in his heart, because ever since the trap door appeared in his field of vision, there were constant stabbing pains in the center of his eyebrows.
This is his 'Informed Haki (weakened)' warning him.
What really shocked Link was that the strength of the warning this time was so frightening.
If it weren't for the strong pressure of Occlumency, he would even have the urge to run away now!
But it does prove that what Grindelwald said is true, and that there is indeed some extremely dangerous power hidden in that trap door.
and many more!
If this is true, then why was it okay when Voldemort killed Grindelwald in the original book?
Did Voldemort seal the thing in this door or solve it?
This is unlikely. If this thing could be solved by Voldemort without any damage, then Dumbledore would have taken action long ago given his temper, long before Voldemort could deal with it.
Has the International Federation of Wizards taken remedial measures?
This is possible. Maybe in the original book, the International Federation of Wizards turned a blind eye to Voldemort's raging in the country because they suffered heavy losses from dealing with this gadget.
Or is Grindelwald bluffing?
Link shook his head quickly again.
The trap door gave him a very strong sense of crisis.
If Grindelwald really had the ability to create such an illusion, then Grindelwald could kill him directly.
……
Just as Link was thinking quickly, Grindelwald smiled and said:
"Stop thinking nonsense, I didn't lie to you, and I won't hurt you.
At the same time, I can tell you clearly that that old woman is just trying to scare you!
Although that guy Albus is a bastard, he is far from being as scary as you said, and he cannot control someone unconsciously.
For someone like you who is already wary of him and is extremely smart, the most he can do is to predict to a certain extent.
The pendant around the neck of the curled-winged demon is the best proof.
By the way, can you give it to me? "
Yo-Yo has been following Link for so long that it can respond to some basic words and actions.
Seeing Grindelwald pointing at it, Yo-Yo opened its mouth pretending to be fierce, revealing its razor-sharp fangs.
Along with its movements, the diamond-shaped pendant on its neck also shook.
This pendant was given to Link by Dumbledore along with the magic scroll.
After testing it, Link couldn't find anything special about it, so he gave it to Yo-Yo, but he didn't expect Grindelwald to want it.
"Is there anything special about this?"
As Link spoke, he took off the pendant and rubbed it in his hand, but he had no intention of giving it to Grindelwald.
Seeing this, Grindelwald sighed and said:
"This is the blood pact between Dumbledore and I. You should know what the blood pact is, right?"
Link was stunned for a moment and nodded.
He had indeed read about the blood pact from the Foley family's collection of books.
It is said that this is a quite ancient covenant, which means that the person who makes the covenant cannot harm the other party in any way.
The key is that to achieve this kind of covenant, both parties need to unconditionally trust each other and be willing to give everything they have to each other.
The blood pact born under such harsh conditions can almost be said to be a token of love between Dumbledore and Grindelwald.
For a moment, Link's expression was a little strange, and he looked at the blood alliance pendant and Grindelwald with a little disgust.
"The reason why I said Dumbledore asked you to come is because you carry the Blood Pact with you. I guess Dumbledore has given you this thing for some time, right? This proves my suspicion. He is not controlling I'm not aware of your behavior, but I believe that you will definitely come to me one day."
Grindelwald seemed to be getting better and better. He shook his head and said, "Okay, don't look at me with that look. In short, there is nothing to worry about. You can't and you don't have to kill me. After all, you want to Even if you don’t kill me, I can still give it to you.”
After saying this, Grindelwald stamped the trap door hard.
Immediately, a terrifying roar came from behind the door, and a huge force suddenly opened the trap door, revealing the darkness inside that was far richer than the darkness.
hum-
Link didn't even have time to react before a tyrannical force swept over him instantly.
He could clearly feel the power rushing through every blood vessel in his body, and he could also feel that Mike, who was trapped in his mind, was roaring crazily. This loss of control over his body made him almost Crazy.
Fortunately, this power soon receded like a tide.
Because Grindelwald quickly pressed his entire body against the trap door.
Although the power (or should we say monster?) imprisoned under the door struggled desperately to come out, it was still suppressed by Grindelwald's body, which was so thin that he probably weighed less than a hundred pounds.
Finally, Grindelwald took out a wand from somewhere and inserted it into the latch between the trap door and the floor, completely locking the trap door.
Link was confused by all this.
He really wanted to ask Grindelwald what that was just now, but before he could speak, his data panel that was usually put away suddenly jumped out and began to twist and deform in front of his eyes, like a signal. Not as good as the black and white TV that is flashing snowflakes!
After a while, the panel finally returned to normal, and a string of golden barrage appeared in front of Link:
[Gold skill point*1 has been obtained! 】
[Free skill point*1 has been obtained! 】
Ah this...
There is no reason, just give skill points?
Are you giving me a bug here?
Link was complaining crazily in his heart, with shock written all over his face.
Because the invasion and departure of that powerful force not only brought him skill points, but also seemed to take away some things in his body, making his mind suddenly clear, even the dark thoughts and cruel murderous intentions in his heart It has also faded a lot.
Link was not disgusted with this feeling, because this power was not some kind of brainwashing, but seemed to cleanse his entire soul.
Only now did he finally realize that the terrifying thoughts in his heart had been growing ever since he set foot on German soil.
But now, his mentality has finally returned to its original state.
"Darkness is eroding your heart," Grindelwald said calmly, "This subtle erosion cannot be stopped by relying on Occlumency and mental power, because you subjectively do not resist this change.
Do more things that you should do at your age.
For example, find a few good friends and have a big drink.Or go back to school and play a few games of Quidditch.If that doesn't work, I might as well find a woman to sleep with.
Vent more and vent more, only in this way can this erosion be delayed.
Remember, keep to yourself! "
At that time, Grindelwald had been imprisoned in Nurmengard Prison for decades.
The strength of a wizard's magic power mainly depends on his physical fitness and mental strength.
