Cannon Fodder Collection [Comprehensive]

In "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", there is not much recorded about the rune snake, and most of the knowledge about the rune snake, according to the author Newt Scamman, comes from some Parseltongues, but Newt Scamman did not mention who the Parseltongues are. Furthermore, when he wrote this book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", "Knh" had not yet become the Dark Lord. At that time, even the original Dark Lord Grindelwald Not that famous yet.

Leaving aside the question that the Parseltongue was not exclusive to anyone at the time, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find It" did not mention how to hatch rune snake eggs, but it did mention how the basilisk came.It's just that Lin Ning didn't intend to hatch a basilisk, she didn't know what to think of, and she also looked deeply at the rune snake eggs, which were shining brightly with the pitcher plants.

White Queen: "??"

"Emil?"

Lin Ning pondered: "I just suddenly thought of the boss of the black organization. I don't know if Conan and the others pushed him down."

White Queen: "I'm afraid I can't answer your question."

Lin Ning didn't say anything, but just withdrew his deep gaze from the rune snake egg, and shrugged indifferently towards the White Queen.

Nepenthes still had deep eyes.

When "Greenwood Adventures" was released, Silent Publishing House was already publishing Lin Ning's second novel "My Duel with the Dark Wizard".This book is naturally based on her experience in Australia, and because of her glorious deeds of fighting against black wizards, she not only won the second class medal of the Order of Merlin, but also became an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Magic League, and her reputation was immediately raised. Big cut.

And it's great publicity.

There is no need for Lin Ning to advertise himself on "The Quibbler" like last time. At the same time, readers this time are not only uncomfortable because they can't see the serialization, but also buy books purely for their appearance. It was for her glorious deeds of fighting the black wizard bravely.If there are other reasons, Lin Ning also thought of the current environment. At this time, seven years have passed since the defeat of the dark lord whose name cannot be named, but the British magic world is still shrouded in the shadow of the dark lord. It won't be that he is still afraid to say his name. The wizards in the magic world still need some "stimulants". Then "My Duel with the Dark Wizard" may be scratching their itch.

All in all, "My Duel with the Dark Wizard" is still selling well in the wizarding world, and by the way, because this matter happened in Australia, the International Federation of Wizards also participated, which also made "My Duel with the Dark Wizard" able to cross the ocean , sold overseas.The uninformed wizards all relied on what was written in the book and believed that "Gilderoy Lockhart" was a young and promising wizard with superb magic and extraordinary courage and courage.

Many wizards think so.

"Albus, have you read Lockhart's novel? I've caught three students reading it recently before class begins." Professor McGonagall came to the principal's office, and Dumbledore behind the desk Lido said so.

"You mean "My Duel with the Dark Wizard"? Of course, I would be happy to have more conversations with the students." Dumbledore picked up the box containing the chocolate frog, "Would you like some?"

Professor McGonagall: "I don't think so."

With a regretful expression, Dumbledore grabbed a chocolate frog that wanted to jump out of the box and stuffed it into his mouth.Professor McGonagall sighed: "I didn't expect him to change so much. I think he didn't pay much attention to his studies when he was in school."

Professor McGonagall was quite euphemistic when he said this, knowing that Professor McGonagall was also on the list of faculty and staff that Lockhart graduated from school with a little relief.

Dumbledore said with a smile: "The child has probably grown up, and we should be proud of him."

Professor McGonagall thought for a while and felt that she probably misunderstood Lockhart back then: "Okay."

Professor McGonagall left soon. After she left, Dumbledore took out "I Duel the Dark Wizard" from the drawer, and Lihen Bookstore gave Gilderoy Lockhart card as a bookmark. Gilderoy Lockhart's eyes are extremely clear, bright and sharp, but will not make people feel offended, and at the same time, his smile is not exaggerated at all. Looking at it as a whole, it reveals a calm and firm temperament, very It can make people feel good when they see it.

Professor McGonagall has always been strict. Even the students of Gryffindor College will become honest when they take her Transfiguration class. Now there are students she thinks are too obsessed with this book, not just one or two, they can It is foreseeable that many more students will buy this book.

Dumbledore recalled that when Lockhart was still in school a few years ago, he felt that there was no way to let everyone in the school know him through repeated and eye-catching "great achievements", but let Quite a few people regarded Ravenclaw Lockhart, who regarded him as a clown, with this young and promising white wizard who had risen to fame and high-profile.

Can time really change the nature of a person?

this problem?

Lin Ning was expressionless: "What do you want to do, Nepenthes?"

Nepenthes: "Hmph."

Lin Ning: "...you just want to smash it into pieces, so you should be sneaky so I won't find out."

Nepenthes: "Wow?"

Lin Ning half hated iron for being weak and half couldn't laugh or cry: "You don't have another chance, I still have great use for this runic snake egg, but I can assure you that it will never become our new companion."

The pitcher plant was satisfied.

As soon as Lin Ning turned around, he saw the White Queen not far away looking towards this side.

The White Queen just turned her face away.

On the contrary, it made Lin Ning a little self-doubt, thinking that it was because she was too scumbag in the past.

Lin Ning: "..."

Fortunately, after she reiterated that once, neither the White Queen nor the pitcher plant "crowded" the rune snake eggs anymore. On the contrary, the White Queen helped Lin Ning find some information books, so that her once A male snake with two dicks was able to hatch that rune snake egg not out of thin air.It's just that the hatching of the rune snake eggs did not happen overnight, and Lin Ning was actually not that urgent, because there was no suitable opportunity for what she wanted to do with the hatched rune snake eggs.

And then again, the first adventure story of "Greenwood Adventures", "The Devil Says", has finally been published by Bloombury Press.Bloombury Publishing House did not have high hopes for it, only thought that it had the potential to sell well, but the publishing industry has not never encountered a situation where they were very optimistic about it, but readers did not buy it, so at the beginning At that time, they set the final sales very objectively. Of course, they did not miss the recommendations and advertisements that should be done. Everything is waiting for the market to test.

In the first few days, sales were tepid, but by the end of the first week, the publishing house began to call for additional printing.

The second week is not over yet, and they are already thinking about negotiating distribution rights with overseas publishers.

In the UK again, after word-of-mouth fermentation, coupled with the virtues of the British media that always boast about their own products, "The Adventures of Greenwood" sold [-] copies within the month after publication, and in the second month The sales volume of the book has also increased, and it has successfully entered the bestseller list of many newspapers such as "The Guardian" and "The Times", and it looks like it will occupy the list for a long time depending on the situation.

Barry MacMillan is flushed and almost walks with wind.

Bloombury Publishing House plans to hold a small internal celebration party when the sales volume exceeds [-] copies. Naturally, the author himself is indispensable for such a celebration party, and the task of inviting him has been transferred to Barry. Macmillan.Barry McMillan finally had other means of contact this time, but he called a few times, but no one answered, and if he wanted to visit again, he was afraid of disturbing his writing, so Barry McMillan wrote again I wrote a letter, anyway, it will be delivered the next day, and the celebration will take about a week, so there is plenty of time.

The next night, Barry McMillan was flipping through manuscripts in his apartment when he was awakened by a knock on glass.

When I looked up, there was an owl printed on the window.

Barry Macmillan: "!"

On another look, the owl was still holding a letter.

Barry Macmillan: 'What kind of operation is this? '

The more coquettish operation is yet to come. The letter brought by the owl reads:

"I'm concentrating on hatching snakes, don't disturb me for two months.

gr lockhart. "

Barry Macmillan: "???"

Barry McMillan suddenly realized: "Mr. Lockhart really has a sense of humor, ha ha ha ha."

Considering that he is a magician and can drive owls to deliver letters for him, it is quite understandable.As for humor or not?Barry McMillan thinks he has seen writers with all kinds of eccentricities. The kind of eccentricity immersed in his own world is actually nothing at all.

Well.

Then it's nothing.

In fact, Lin Ning wasn't concentrating on hatching the rune snake eggs, otherwise, two months had passed, and she should have hatched them long ago.During this period, Lin Ning was mainly researching spells and magic patterns, and also focused on the direction of solving spells.In the magic world, there is a profession called a spellbreaker, which is used to remove the protective spell or curse on the item, so that the item can be used safely by the owner.And Lin Ning wanted to delve into this reverse, mainly because the word "Parseltongue" gave her some inspiration and reminded her of the great villain Voldemort in this parallel world.

In the previous parallel world, Lin Ning clearly deduced who the boss of the black organization was, but no one mentioned it, and she was not interested in overthrowing the boss. The main reason was that she knew that the black organization would end sooner or later. There are friends on the righteous side, all of whom have online IQs, and the protagonist's aura protects them. Soon they will join forces to defeat the boss.And this parallel world derived from "Harry Potter" as the blueprint, Voldemort as the bottom boss, and the Death Eaters he leads, seem to have the same effect as the boss of the black organization and the black organization he leads. wonderful.

No, there's really no comparison between the two.

Voldemort and Death Eaters only counted as many as they could count, and their structure was far inferior to that of the Black Organization.The reason why Lin Ning makes such an analogy is because the two of them are generally evil that is destined to be defeated by justice, and there are not many death eaters who are the most loyal, and most of them are driven by interests. interests come first.

Oh, and a double agent.

Furthermore, the comprehensive strength of Voldemort, the bottom boss, cannot be compared with that of the black organization boss.It stands to reason that Lin Ning should be more prominent, but isn't she trying to do something to the wizarding world? Whether Voldemort or not, has something to do with her, so she is no longer irrelevant own.

Therefore, Lin Ning plans to start doing something.

Instead of having to wait until 12 years later, Harry Potter will completely defeat Voldemort according to the prophecy.

Is it better to strike first?

What's even more deceitful is that Lin Ning, who is a big loser, also has a strategy for clearing the level. She knows that Voldemort split herself and where his Horcrux is placed.Among so many horcruxes, after deliberation, Lin Ning first chose the second horcrux split by Voldemort.

"We're going out."

Lin Ning closed the "Practical Defense Magic and Its Restraint to Black Magic" in his hand, and said to the White Queen who was sitting in front of the computer.Nepenthes stood on the white queen's lap, grasping the edge of the table with its front paws, and followed its head to look at the computer screen. The two of them were so attentive that they didn't respond to Lin Ning immediately.

Lin Ning: "?"

She glanced at the screen calmly and found that the two of them were watching the surveillance video.After listening for a while, she realized that the White Queen had hacked into the venue of a book club and was listening to them publish their reflections on "The Adventures of Greenwood".

Lin Ning followed and listened for a while, until the White Queen found her.

Lin Ning said with a smile: "They all like what I created, that's really great."

In "Greenwood Adventures", the protagonist is Greenwood, a playboy who looks bohemian and acts a little frivolous when he appears on the stage, and he is then involved in a murder case, which is gradually being overshadowed. The proof is not as simple as 'human', and it also involves legendary creatures-Lin Ning said that she will write adventure stories as she writes, and she will write them as detective stories.

And the main character is also based on the White Queen. Her race was not revealed in the first story, but all signs indicate that she is not a 'human'.

By the way, Greenwood also has a dog named n (Nepenthes Latin scientific name nepenthessp.).In the first story, it is just a very ordinary dog.

Before the White Queen heard what she said, the pitcher plant gave a "woof".

Lin Ning didn't favor one another and said, "Actually, you are the big boss, and you will surely catch the attention of many readers."

Nepenthes: "Hmph."

The White Queen interjected: "Actually, you didn't understand what they were talking about, nepenthes."

Nepenthes: "..."

Lin Ning pretended to say: "Speaking of which, there is a magic spell called 'Translation Curse', which can be used to translate English to Chinese."

Nepenthes: "Wow!"

Lin Ning rascally said, "You haven't asked either?"

Seeing that the two of them were about to wrestle, the White Queen hugged the pitcher plant and let the pitcher plant wither silently, it was still a little timid about the White Queen.After the verbal battle like this, Lin Ning shared her thoughts, and everyone was ready to go to Greater Hangleton.There is a descendant of Salazar Slytherin, one of the four founders of Hogwarts, the Gaunt old house of the Gaunt family.Voldemort's second Horcrux, the ancestral ring of the Gaunt family, was hidden in Gaunt's old house by himself.

Lin Ning and his family of three directly used Apparition to go there and appeared directly in Great Hangleton.Great Hangleton is next to Little Hangleton, which is the hometown of Voldemort's father, Tom Riddle, but the Riddle family has long since disappeared. Until now, some old people in Little Hangleton still mention the Riddle family, thinking that The old Riddle house was scary. Of course, the Riddle house was far less scary than the Gaunt house.

Gaunt's old house has been around for many, many years, and it can scare children into tears.From the boundary between Great Hangleton and Little Hangleton to Gaunt's old house, you have to pass a narrow dirt road, which is winding, potholed, and full of rocks, leading to the dark forest, where the trees are generally tall and dense , cast a chilly dark dense shadow on the ground, just such a path is scary enough.

Not to mention that the old Gaunt house was hidden in a tangle of trees, blocking all light from the trees, with moss on the walls and many of the roof tiles missing, showing here and there the rafters inside.Nettles grew thickly all around the house, reaching up to the windows, which were very small and thick with old grime.

This is really deceptive.

No wonder no one else has been here for so many years.

Lin Ning couldn't help but said, "Who would have thought that the Resurrection Stone, one of the Three Hallows of Death, is hidden here."

The White Queen: "I thought you wanted to deal with Voldemort's Horcruxes, Emil."

Lin Ning smiled, his originally handsome face was covered by the gloomy light, leaving only a semi-dark brilliance, "Horcrux is just incidental, I actually thought of the legendary resurrection stone, use it Resurrect countless undead souls and make them my army of undead. From now on, wherever my arms point, they will surely be crushed for me. At that time, not to mention the small magic world, even the whole world will be under my influence. must."

The White Queen said in a calm tone, "Wow."

Lin Ning: "...Well, I'm more interested in the resurrection stone than the Horcrux."

The White Queen: "Then you have to get it first."

Lin Ning: "Yes."

The ring inlaid with the resurrection stone was placed in Gunter's old house in a big way. It's no wonder Lin Ning said so, mainly because Gunter's old house is so big.Gaunt, as a very old wizard family, is also said to be a descendant of Slytherin. At the same time, he still has the resurrection stone. It can be seen that it was once famous, but they are used to marrying close relatives, which amplifies the genetic difference in their genes. Restless and violent, but also like luxury, but not enterprising, resulting in poverty in recent generations, and now the old Gunter house has only three rooms, even if you want to hide the resurrection stone ring, there is no place to hide it. More importantly, Voldemort placed various spells around the resurrection stone ring, and those who violated it died.

Lin Ning took out the laptop powered by magic power from his pocket, put on the scanner she and the White Queen had recently developed, and began to use the resurrection stone ring as the center. Carry out all-round and three-dimensional scanning of the magic power fluctuations, and scientifically analyze what curses Voldemort has placed.

"Let me take a look—" Lin Ning looked at the screen. She had been studying various spells for a while, and she was almost dreaming of calling out some spells. One of the purposes was to ensure that she could take this spell safely. The resurrection stone is naturally well prepared.And the spell analyzed by the computer is not 100% certain, which requires Lin Ning to be more cautious in the next process of breaking the spell.

The White Queen stood by and waited.

Nepenthes, which originally wanted to be full of mountains and waves, also squatted aside with a serious face.

Fortunately, Lin Ning's process of breaking the curse went smoothly, but when the ring inlaid with an ordinary-looking, even ugly black gemstone was completely "naked", Lin Ning's expression changed slightly .

The change was too subtle, but the White Queen noticed it.

She looked at the pitcher plant and spoke to it.

Immediately, the pitcher plant flew towards Lin Ning.

"Snapped!"

Lin Ning: "...my face must be swollen."

"I'm fully awake now." Lin Ning then said to the White Queen who was worried about her. In fact, she was only a little bit tempted. She was not sure whether it was the temptation of the resurrection stone itself or "living" in it Her horcrux endowed this kind of temptation. Anyway, at that moment, her mind fluttered slightly, and she wanted to use the resurrection stone to revive her former relatives and friends, but her reason told her very clearly that this was just drinking poison to quench her thirst. No longer in this parallel world, how could it be possible to be resurrected, and what is resurrected by the resurrection stone is no longer a person at all, but a substance that is more real than the soul and more illusory than the entity.

Lin Ning's willpower is already strong enough. Even if there is no pitcher plant to slap her, she will be able to resist this temptation in the end, although she will not "act" so quickly.

Having said that, the White Queen gave her a refreshing buff, and the Resurrection Stone Ring was quarantined for future research.Lin Ning became more sober now, she held her chin and said thoughtfully: "I don't think the resurrection stone itself is tempting, most likely the soul fragments living in it want to make the thief wear the resurrection stone ring , so as to ignore the dangers around it. Also, since the Three Deathly Hallows really exist, where is the God of Death who gave these three Deathly Hallows back then?"

In "The Tales of Beedle the Poet", the three Peverell brothers got an invincible wand from the god of death, the Elder Wand; a stone that can bring the dead back to life, the Resurrection Stone; invisibility cloak.In the end, only the third child who got the invisibility cloak escaped the pursuit of death, and he was also the ancestor of Harry Potter.

Lin Ning joked: "Could it be that because of such a miss, you have no face to see 'people' and hide?" She meant that the existence of the god of death has not yet been confirmed. After all, the story of the three Peverell brothers It's just a legend, although the three holy artifacts really exist.

(grim Reaper:"……")

The White Queen was in charge of bringing the topic back: "Emile, do you mean to say that the Horcrux and the Resurrection Stone cannot exist at the same time?"

"I'm afraid it is." Lin Ning continued without hesitation: "If this is the case, then I will keep the resurrection stone. Anyway, the rune snake eggs have not been hatched yet."

Nepenthes: "Hmph."

Lin Ning paused and said, "Shouldn't it be a dead egg?"

The White Queen said slowly, "Even if the Rune snake hatches, it has only three heads, and Voldemort has six Horcruxes."

Lin Ning added: "Including Voldemort, and the piece of soul he cast on Harry Potter, there are eight soul fragments in total. Oh, now we can remove this soul fragment in the resurrection stone ring, The one in Harry Potter can also be eliminated first, and the diary is not easy to get, so I can also be excluded. There is another one that we have to keep for the main soul, so there will be a lot less choices in this way."

White Queen: "The main soul? We don't know where he is."

"This? We need Professor Quirrell." When Voldemort attacked Harry Potter that year, he suffered a rebound from the guardian spell. Not only did his soul split again, but he himself also suffered backlash and lost his body.The split soul fragments attached to Harry Potter, and Voldemort, who only had a broken soul, could only weakly possess animals until he met Quirrell in Albania.

It's just that in the original book, it didn't specify when and where Quirrell went to Albania, but judging from the present, Quirrell has not gotten up to Albania, so Lin Ning wants to track down the main soul of Voldemort who is wandering around. , just keep an eye on Quirrell, and cut off his beard before Voldemort possesses him.

But this will have to wait a few years. Quirrell traveled abroad before Harry Potter went to Hogwarts, but he did not say which age group he went to. It was nearly five years before Potter went to Hogwarts.

In five years, she will always successfully hatch a rune snake!

The White Queen reassured: "The emir seems to have a lot of fighting spirit."

Lin Ning: "...well."

The first part of "The Adventures of Greenwood" continued to sell well in the UK. Half a year after it was published, it had sold nearly 15 copies in the UK. The price won the distribution right of "The Adventures of Greenwood: The Devil Says" in the United States. After making differences in English and American grammar, wording and other differences, it was fully released by Scholars Publishing House in the United States, and quickly became one of the best-selling novels nowadays. one.

On Lin Ning's side, after "concentrating on hatching snakes, don't bother", "raising dragons in Romania, don't bother", "attending a vampire rally in the Black Forest, don't bother", she finally put the second "Vampire" together. The first draft was mailed to Barry McMillan, again by owl.

Barry Macmillan was used to it.

At that time, Mr. August Worm, the editor-in-chief of Moran Publishing House, also got the first draft of the third novel given by Lin Ning.

After reading it, he was stunned. "this--"

Lin Ning interrupted: "This story is purely fictional, and the publishing house does not have a rule not to publish fictional novels, right, Mr. Worm?"

August Worm: "It's not—"

Lin Ning once again stated his position after hearing this: "Then it's settled, if anything happens after publication, I will fully bear it."

She got so far on this point that August Worm said, "All right."

That's what August Worm said, but he still hasn't made up his mind.He is a pure-blood wizard. Although he is not the kind of extreme blood theory, he knows little about the Muggle world and has not been baptized by the Muggle world's opinions. Therefore, the novel written by Lin Ning this time makes him The three views of wizardism have been greatly impacted, even if Lin Ning told the story that it is purely fictitious, it has no effect.This caused him to be in a daze when he returned home.

Mrs Worm asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

Before August Worm said anything, Mrs. Worm said pleasantly: "Dear Mr. Lockhart, has he written a new book? I've been waiting for this day, let me read it first." She said Then he took the manuscript from Mr. Worm's hand.

August Worm: "..."

Mr. Worm thought for a second, it would be good to let Mrs. Worm take a look first, at least it would let him know his wife's attitude towards the novel, and he thought his wife would have the same reaction as him.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Worm burst into tears when she saw half of it, and finally just hugged the manuscript and sobbed, "It's so pitiful, Fenrir and Marilyn are so pitiful, why can't two people who love each other be together? Woolen cloth?"

August Worm: "???"

He seemed to read a fake manuscript.

"No, you know that Griffin is a werewolf and Marilyn is a vampire?"

Mrs. Worm burst into tears: "But they are in love!"

August Worm choked speechlessly: "Ma'am, you don't understand what I mean, think about the virtues of vampires in reality. And more importantly, what virtues are werewolves! Let alone vampires, just Werewolves, we all know that even if they are not marked with the Dark Mark, they are still your lackeys, his minions. And Fenrir? The name Fenrir, didn’t you think of something?”

Mrs. Worm calmed down a bit: "You mean Fenrir Greyback?"

August Worm said categorically: "Exactly! That notorious werewolf Fenrir Greyback."

Mrs. Worm thought of Greyback's past evil deeds, hesitated and said, "Could it be because of Marilyn's death that Fenrir became all-powerful?"

August Worm: "..."

Of course not!

August Worm still couldn't make up his mind, everyone said that "Knh" died that August, but no one dared to talk about the Dark Lord by name.Leaving this aside, the werewolf Griffin Greyback is the most notorious werewolf. , In fact, he took refuge in "desire knh", even without this point, he is also the object of hatred in the wizarding world, and in the novel Lockhart gave him, how does August Worm feel that he is beautifying werewolves and vampires , especially vampires, when did the vampires in their magic world look so good-looking and capable?

no……

The werewolf is the object that everyone fears and hates. How can there be any residual humanity?It's not worth glorifying them either.What's more outrageous is that werewolves and vampires are in love?That's no less than a wizard and a giant together!

(Hagrid: "???")

Mrs. Worm didn't quite understand Mr. Worm's entanglement, and she was still immersed in the plot of the novel, "Marilyn is so poor, maybe I can go and find out about this vampire. Black hair, red eyes, so beautiful, Such a vampire should be easy to inquire about."

August Worm: "...everyone says this story is pure fiction!!"

Mrs. Worm didn't know if she listened or not: "Then publish it quickly."

August Worm: "..."

In the end, August Worm couldn't stand Mrs. Worm's soft and hard ideas, and decided to publish it, but he didn't put the name of Obscure Publishing House on the cover, and he didn't go to the "Daily Prophet" Advertise and minimize the presence of Moran Publishing House as much as possible.

However, this did not affect the popularity of "Vampire and Werewolf". After all, the name "Gideroy Lockhart" is not only well known in the magic world, but it is also very loud.As long as Lihen Bookstore puts up a huge portrait of someone at the door of their bookstore, it is enough to attract a group of women and men to come in, and there are "I Duel with the Dark Wizard" and "My Night in the Black Forest Mountain" as background, Luoha Mr. Te still has accumulated a lot of popularity. This time, many wizards bought "Vampires and Werewolves" as soon as they saw the author's name.

The result can be imagined.

There are sentimentalists like Mrs Worm;

There are also people like August Worm who are reasonable but still suffer a lot of shocks;

There are also people who think that this is simply sensationalism;

What’s more, he was once attacked by werewolves or vampires, and this novel couldn’t be accepted at all, so he became angry and painful, and even the author himself was angry;

And werewolves.

The vampires in this world are relatively weak. Even if they read novels, they are powerless.But werewolves are different, not to mention other werewolves, even Fenrir Greyback, who has the same name, was outraged, "I'm going to bite him, suck his blood, and tear him apart!"
