The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

It can be seen that Alice is still afraid of that glass of wine.

Alice had been shaking ever since the glass of wine appeared.

But even so, she still took the glass of wine.

Then he slowly handed it to the Countess.

"Drink."

Alice said in a trembling voice, "You should have drank this glass of wine three years ago."

"No—I don't want it!"

The Countess screamed, shaking her head and moving back to get further away from the glass of wine.

But the next moment, Alice opened her mouth and poured all the red wine in.

As bright red wine dripped from the corner of her mouth, the countess's violent struggling movements suddenly stopped.

Blood-red flames began to gush out from his body.

This flame is extremely strange.

John obviously couldn't feel any heat.

But the Countess remained silent and stiff, being constantly burned and hurt by the flames.

"Little monster! You little monster!"

The white parrot started screaming again.

It hovered over the hall.

He seemed to be angrily scolding Alice, but also seemed to be wailing for the countess.

Alice looked at it like this, her expression complex but calm.

Finally, the white parrot also flew into the blood flames.

This person and one bird were quickly burned to the ground.

"Puff-"

Alice seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed to the ground.

She slowly turned her head and caught John's gaze.

"That's how my parents died."

Alice said in a sleepy voice.

John put the Lopez gem into his deformed lizard skin wallet, then breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"So, this countess killed them?"

"No, that bitch just killed my father." Alice smiled miserably. "As for my mother, it was my father who did it."

John pursed his lips, not knowing how to evaluate it.

Alice slowly crawled to the pile of charcoal and rummaged through it to find an oval crystal.

"Smashed to pieces!"

"Snapped--"

The crystal shattered under the influence of magic.

Alice blew hard to blow away the remaining powder of the crystal, and then said:

"You know why they call me little monster?"

Before John could ask further questions, Alice continued:

"Because I'm really mentally unstable, an extreme monster, a lunatic.

Of course, I am a little monster, my father and mother are big monsters, and my grandparents are old monsters.

We all have the same problem. "

John nodded and said:

"Is this why your father killed your mother? Was he sick at the time?"

"I hope so. After all, it would have been tragic if he had been sober at the time."

Alice said in a daze, "But it doesn't matter. I don't think he is my father. He is just a madman, a villain, and an uncle."

"uncle?"

John frowned tightly.

The amount of information revealed by this title is quite large.

If Alice's father is also her uncle, doesn't that mean her parents are actually siblings?

"Don't be too surprised."

Michael's voice sounded from behind John.

He was holding three traceless stretching spell bags in his hands, and it seemed that he had just returned after ransacking the Lopez Manor.

This kind of thing is not too difficult for Michael.

After several days of investigation, John had already figured out the details of the entire Lopez Manor and informed Michael of this information.

Facing John's slightly shocked gaze, Michael continued:

"This behavior was common hundreds of years ago, and many pure-blood wizards at that time went crazy. They believed that maintaining a pure bloodline would allow future generations to have better magical talents. This concept led them astray.

For example, the Gaunt family, they tortured themselves to death like this.

If you really want to talk about it, the Lopez family is actually quite strong.

In this abnormal way, it can still last for so many generations without dying. "

Michael's words made John feel sick to his stomach.

He had read a lot of information in his previous life.

We are fully aware of the horrific consequences of this model.

"However, when the Lopez family reaches your generation, it is almost over, right?"

Michael continued, "After all, the long-term abnormal reproduction method has caused irreversible damage to you, which is really sad."

I don't know if it's an illusion.

John always felt that when Michael said this, his expression also revealed a sadness.

This is extremely rare for Michael.

After hearing this, Alice became completely silent like a stone statue.

This state is almost exactly the same as after she experienced the Boggart test before.

"This is a special method she uses to prevent herself from losing control." Michael sighed, "Let her take some time to rest."

John nodded and left the hall after finishing handling the body.

Before leaving, the two also placed a traceless stretching spell bag next to Alice.

What was inside was 30.00% of the cash hidden in the Lopez family.

As for the remaining 70.00%, it belongs to John and Michael.

It seemed like Alice was at a disadvantage.

But John and Michael were prepared to leave something like the Lopez Estate to Alice that could not be easily cashed out.

So to be honest, no one can say that he suffered a loss.

But John actually didn't think much of those tens of thousands of galleons.

What he valued more was the 'Lopez Gem'.

As soon as he returned to the room, John quickly got into the magic suitcase.

The blue gem was already in his hand.

With almost no hesitation, John simply followed his instinct and took a bite.

"crunch-"

The gem that was supposed to be extremely hard suddenly became brittle the moment it came into contact with John's teeth.

With a crisp sound.

A large chunk of the gem was chewed off by John like an apple.

Immediately, a strange magic power poured into John's body.

But it did not flow directly into the second magic pool like the normal 'chewing' ability.

Instead, it began to wander out of John's body.

John didn't stop and continued to chew the apple.

By the time he finished eating the entire gem, the strange magic power had filled his body and slowly gathered, condensing into another swirling magic pool near his heart.

This is John's third magic pool.

Its appearance made the cells in John's body finally stop.

John breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair.

This feeling of having every cell in your body being satisfied is really wonderful.

John could also clearly feel that the emergence of this third magic pool not only almost doubled the total magic power and magic talent in his body.

And it also greatly strengthened John's 'chewing' ability.

In the past, there was an upper limit for John's ability to 'chew' magic power by drinking it. He would be 'stretched' after drinking it for a few hours every day.

But now, unless John can find a more efficient way to absorb magic power, it will be difficult to reach the new absorption limit just by drinking magic potion.

Not only that, John's magic absorption efficiency and absorption range have also been greatly enhanced.

This was a huge surprise for John!

In addition, the strange shape of the third magic pool also gave John a premonition.

This magic pool may be able to develop more abilities in the future.

If this is the case, wouldn't he be more efficient in dealing with goblins in the future?

While John was thinking, Dobby came over holding a two-way mirror.

"Master, this mirror has... been flickering for a long time."

Listening to Dobby's description, John cast his gaze on the mirror.

I saw that the light above was indeed shining regularly.

This is a sign that someone is trying to contact him.

The other mirror connected to this mirror is in Michelle's hand.

"Snapped--"

John raised his wand slightly, and the double-sided mirror automatically flew into his hand.

At the same time, magic power was input, and Michelle's face full of surprise appeared from above.

"Finally connected! What a magical mirror!"

Michelle exclaimed, then seemed to remember something, and said quickly, "Oh! I have business! John, Mr. Minister wants to invite us to watch the Quidditch World Cup!

He couldn't find you, so he had to send the invitation letter to me.

John, can you take us with you? "
