Cannon Fodder Collection [Comprehensive]

For the Voldemort who brought disaster to the wizarding world, Dumbledore knew far more than other wizards.

Among them, Dumbledore knew that Voldemort was Tom Riddle who had studied at Hogwarts.

There are only a few people in the wizarding world today who know about this matter, which also made Dumbledore unexpectedly think of Horace Slughorn, one of the possible insiders.

Horace Slughorn was once a professor at Hogwarts, the former dean of Slytherin, who taught at Hogwarts for 50 years, and he taught Tom Riddle that year.

Not only that, Horace Slughorn may have shared some dark secrets with Tom Riddle.Dumbledore's first clear awareness of this came that summer, when Voldemort, as prophesied, was defeated by a baby.At that time, Horace Slughorn was extremely relaxed and almost out of control with joy. It was his reaction and his inadvertent few words that alerted Dumbledore. After that, Dumbledore asked several times cautiously , but all ended up being refused by him.

It was just a few days later that Horace Slughorn handed in his resignation and left Hogwarts.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is not the first time that Horace Slughorn has behaved abnormally. In previous years, when the war in the wizarding world started, that is, when the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters faced off, there were rumors flying all over the sky. Propaganda that Voldemort could somehow remain immortal.While it's not entirely clear where the rumor came from, when the rumor reached Hogwarts Horace Slughorn appeared to have fallen ill for no apparent reason.

Dumbledore had visited him, and he looked terrified, and seemed a little guilty.

It would later appear that Dumbledore realized why Horace Slughorn There will be guilt.

It was also true that Dumbledore did not let down his vigilance after the last battle that year.

It now appears that Tom Riddle did somehow escape death.

Dumbledore wasn't quite sure what Dark Arts he used, and the best way to know for sure was to ask the retired Horace Slughorn.After Horace Slughorn left Hogwarts, he returned to his home, enjoying his storage cellar and library, and visiting old members of the Slug Club he organized when he was teaching. They also occasionally hold reunion banquets at home, so if you want to see him, you only need to visit his home.

But the question is how to get him to speak?

When the situation at Hogwarts was so serious, Horace Slughorn kept silent. Now, with his evasive posture and Tom Riddle's lingering power no longer, the wizarding world generally believes that he has After being completely defeated, it would be even more difficult for him to talk about that past.

Dumbledore thought grimly.

At this time, the big black dog blocked outside the principal's office gave a "bark", which interrupted Dumbledore's thoughts.

Dumbledore: "?"

Sirius reacted later, he released the Animagus form, and knocked on the door of the principal's office again.

Dumbledore let him in.

Without waiting for Dumbledore to say anything, Sirius poured out what he knew like beans in a bamboo tube.

Not only that, but he also remembered the incident where Harry was hungry for no reason before, and the incident that Harry had dreamed of a rune snake.

Dumbledore didn't have any ideas about running snakes or something.

On the contrary, it is very likely that Harry spoke Parseltongue, and his inexplicable feelings seemed to have given Dumbledore some inspiration, about the dark secret that Horace Slughorn might have imparted to Tom Riddle. secret.Besides, Harry had such an abnormal reaction recently, and the Dark Mark on Severus Snape's arm was touched just before, which seemed to point to one thing, that was, Voldemort was only defeated , but did not really die. Now that he has gathered his strength, he has returned and returned to the British wizarding world.

But his situation should not allow him to be optimistic.

But even if this is indeed the case, once it is confirmed that he is still alive, it will inevitably bring countless panics to the wizarding world again.The peace that the wizarding world has maintained for nearly 11 years will inevitably be broken, and by then there will inevitably be another bloodbath.

Dumbledore thought he had to get ready early.

Dumbledore was right.

Voldemort's own devil is indeed in a miserable situation now. Not to mention that he has become a third of a rune snake, the five horcruxes he created, including the soul piece in Slytherin's locket, have also been obtained. He was treated exactly the same; the resurrection stone ring and the soul piece in the Hufflepuff gold cup were destroyed; the first Horcrux diary was still fine, but the Malfoy house where it was located was not as good as before. Now, which ex-Death Eater isn't tucking his tail between his legs?

Let's talk about others.

When he was so powerful back then, he gathered a large number of believers, but what about these believers now?The fanatical Death Eater wizards who were imprisoned in Azkaban were put to death, the werewolf leader Fenrir Greyback was on a dog leash, the giant was hiding in the mountains, etc. It can be said that even if Voldemort is resurrected again, he is almost naked Commander.

Is it miserable?

What was even worse was that after the soul piece in the Hufflepuff gold cup was wiped out by Lin Ning with Fierce Fire, Voldemort finally recovered from the pain and looked at his rune snake head all the way. I couldn't help but said, "You acted very realistically, but it's a pity that no audience applauded you." '

Voldemort himself: '...'

Voldemort Five kept silent.

Who would have thought that the snake head of the rune snake would not let him go: "What are you pretending to be?"I see that you just watched it intently, don't you really want to act along with it? '

Voldemort Five: '……'

Voldemort himself: 'Oh. '

Voldemort V: '...'

It was Bellatrix Lestrange's fault that it was Merlin's fault!

(Merlin: "...")

And Bellatrix Lestrange is actually innocent, 'Ghideroy Lockhart' has nothing to do with her, 'he' is now working on Hufflepuff's gold cup.As the name suggests, this gold cup belongs to Helga Hufflepuff, one of the four founders of Hogwarts. It has two finely processed pure gold handles, and the cup is carved with symbolic exquisite carvings.

It is said that it has magical and special magic, and it was the first container in Hogwarts to assist the house elves in transporting magic food. However, for the world, the magic ability of the golden cup is far inferior to it The symbolic meaning of Slytherin, like Slytherin's locket, Gryffindor's sword, and Ravenclaw's crown, they more symbolize the four founders.

The same is true for Lin Ning.

Cups and lockets were just cups and lockets to her.For the four founders and their related things, Lin Ning is more interested in the sorting hat, the pen of acceptance and the book of admission.Needless to say, the sorting hat is used to detect students' thoughts, and then judge which college they are more suitable for. Let alone whether it is too hasty to do so, but such a hat was made more than 1000 years ago. The principle particularly worth discussing;

As for the pen of acceptance and the book of admission?

They came as a set, stored in a nondescript locked tower at Hogwarts that was never visited by students.The Book of Access is a book of parchment with a black dragonskin cover, its pages untouched by human fingers since the Four Founders deposited it at the Citadel at its completion.Next to it stood a small silver inkwell with a long faded quill in it, the Pen of Acceptance.

When a child first displays a gift for magic, the pen of acceptance flies out of the inkwell, trying to put the child's name in the book of admission; was written until it received sufficiently exciting evidence that the child possessed magical powers.Children whose parents are wizards but not magical, occasionally have a faint remnant of magic around them because of their parents.But once the magic of their parents ceased to envelop them, there was no doubt that they had no ability to cast spells.

It can be said that the sensitivity of the pen of acceptance, coupled with the strictness of the book of admission, has made it possible that so far there has been no student admitted to Hogwarts whose name has not been recorded on the yellowed pages of the book of admission.

What's more interesting is that the Book of Access records the name and date of birth of every wizard child, and even records the birthplace of the wizard child. This is simply a very spiritual record of wizard births. Up to now, the Ministry of Magic has no way to detect where wizards are born. Who told the magic world that there is no so-called household registration at all.

It is also said that the pen of acceptance is made of the feather of the divination bird, but it is well known that the feather of the divination bird cannot be used as a pen because of its water repellency, and the ink bottle of the pen of acceptance is empty, but so far no one has paid attention to it. After analyzing how the cursed quill nib slowly leaked out a silvery liquid, no one knew the composition of the liquid.

The most important thing is how did they perceive the new wizarding children all over the UK?The magic power of each wizard is different, just like everyone's genes are unique, but as magic items, how does the Pen of Acceptance and the Book of Access work?

This is an unsolved mystery for Lin Ning, and it is worth exploring.

At the same time, it is also worth referring to.

Just like Lin Ning lamented that the Book of Access is like a complete record of the birth of wizards. She wants to register the wizards in the magic world. If she wants to have complete information and also have magical features, the Book of Access is very informative.It's a pity that Lin Ning can go to watch them, but she can't take them directly for in-depth research, so she can only do "comparing with gourds and drawing ladles" by herself when she has a prototype.

Speaking of forging and alchemy, the leader of the former is the goblin, and the most representative figure of the latter is naturally Nicole Flamel.In other parallel worlds, there is also a person like Nicole Flamel, who often equates alchemy with him, and in the original book of "Harry Potter", Nicole Flamel is set as The only known maker of the Philosopher's Stone, which not only turns any metal into gold, but also creates the elixir of life.

In this parallel universe, this is true, as Nicole Flamel, born around 1330, is still alive and living a reclusive life in Devon with his wife.But they are almost isolated from the world. Only Dumbledore can be their friend and can visit them. Lin Ning has learned about alchemy through other books, but she is not obsessed with it. She is unique, and she is neither short of money nor thought of immortality.

Therefore, Lin Ning didn't want to visit Nicole Flamel in the past, but now she has to deal with the goblin who is good at forging.

The goblins of Gringotts are still in the dungeons of the Ministry of Magic. Lin Ning is now free. After putting Hufflepuff's gold cup on the shelf, she talked to the White Queen and went to the magic department.

The goblins have been locked in the dungeon for more than half a month.

During this period, the only people they could see were the Aurors in charge of the dungeon. First, the Aurors did not beat or scold them, nor torture them with spells, and second, they did not make them hungry or thirsty. It's not very delicious, but it can definitely be called a normal meal.It can be said that the goblins are doing well in the dungeon, but instead of reassuring them, it makes them walk on thin ice even more, for fear that they will be disembowelled at any time.

Lin Ning's arrival made them almost scream.

Lin Ning smiled slightly.

The goblins trembled.

Lin Ning knew what they were thinking, and deliberately said slowly: "It seems that you have a full understanding of your future fate."

"You devil!"

"You goblin." After Lin Ning replied, she felt that something was wrong, but she didn't feel embarrassed. After all, she was speaking English at the moment. The goblins in Gringotts are strictly called "gblin", but She cleared her throat anyway, "So why are you rebelling this time?"

Fairies: "???"

"It would be absurd to think that the Ministry of Magic would attack all goblins because they heard that the Ministry of Magic wanted to eliminate the goblins who had surrendered to Voldemort at that time. Wait, you don't think so, do you?" Lin Ning understood. When you are confused, your conscience is flattered.

Fairies: "..."

"Isn't that so?"

"No," Lin Ning said confidently, "If the Ministry of Magic and I want to do this, why do we still provide you with good food and drink?"

Goblins: "Of course it's because of Gringotts."

Lin Ning spread his hands and said, "That's really embarrassing. Now Gringotts has been refurbished and taken over by the Ministry of Magic. We have also redesigned the new security system and hired a Hungarian tree from the Romanian Fire Dragon Sanctuary. Bee, the former users of Gringotts are also very satisfied with the refurbished Gringotts."

"Although it is not kind to say so, the reality is that you have been laid off."

Fairies: "!!"

"Isn't this forcing us to be homeless and thus downcast to death?"

Lin Ning was a little speechless: "If I remember correctly, there are many wizards who owe you a lot of debts. You can come to collect the debts. Besides, your craftsmanship is still there, so you can rely on it for food everywhere. How can you not end up in the miserable situation you think?"

Fairies: "You speak lightly."

Lin Ning cut in and said, "Well, I admit this point, sometimes you goblins really don't know how to adapt, and easily choose to go on strike because of a small conflict, which has caused many businesses who value your superb craftsmanship to complain."

The goblins were furious: "That's not a small contradiction at all! You wizards shamelessly take the handicrafts you borrowed from us as your own, and you don't know how to return them before you die. And those wizard merchants, they know Earn a few more Galleons, but don't know how to cherish the handicrafts we made, and sell them to more buyers, we can't agree with this at all!"

Lin Ning followed their words and said, "So you are going on strike?"

Fairies: "That's right."

Lin Ning: "Is it useful?"

Goblins: "...we didn't let them try to make more money with it."

Lin Ning suddenly realized: "Then you yourself have no jobs."

Fairies: "..."

Lin Ning said slowly: "In my opinion, you didn't really take the initiative, that is, you failed to do it. Because of your strike, the merchants and more wizards suffered heavy losses, and had to come back and beg you to continue to work. In other words, you failed to affect their fundamental interests."

The goblins said unconvinced: "Gringotts."

Lin Ning still has something to say: "There is this, but you can't be replaced if you fail."

"If I were you, I'd aim for Quidditch."

Fairies: "??"

Lin Ning earnestly said: "Quidditch is the most popular sport in the entire magic world. Even in Asia, Quidditch has a lot of audiences. Basically every country has a Quidditch national team. And whenever the Quidditch World Cup is held, it can be said that all wizarding families are out in force to participate in this sport. In addition to talented and hardworking players, Quidditch has one thing that is indispensable. "

Fairies: "You mean broomsticks?"

Lin Ning nodded: "That's right, Nimbus Racing Broomstick Company has dominated the broomstick market share because of the broomsticks they produced, and quickly became the No. Choice. Not to mention the Quidditch school team, but the Quidditch national team. If they want to achieve better results in the Quidditch game, they will naturally choose the best broomsticks. To a large extent, it affects the mood of wizards and other supporters in their country. There are also Quidditch star players who are very popular today. Each of them has supporters all over the world. I think for their Supporters, for their own good or bad, will go crazy for the best broomsticks on the market."

Nimbus Racing Broom Company is a flying broom company established by Devlin Whitehorn in 1967. The establishment of this company brought a great sensation to the racing broom market. Its first product Nimbus 1000 Using a revolutionary design, it has won the love of the entire European professional Quidditch team, and its subsequent various models of light wheel brooms have also been the best in the broom industry.

The goblins were thoughtful: "But as you said, we are going to make flying broomsticks. After they buy them, don't they also use them as their own things?" What they value most is this!

Lin Ning spread his hands and said, "Isn't the broomstick renewable? At that time, you can trade in the old one for the new one, that is, when they buy a new generation of broomsticks, they can return the old one to you to make up the price difference."

This immediately tickled the goblins' itch: "This is good!"

"Okay?" Lin Ning said with a smile, thinking in his heart that since they like this "sweet date" so much, then they can get a big stick next.She didn't expect to just use a gentle policy towards the goblins like this, and there must be something tough, so that they can learn a lot from a fall, and they can work for her and the Ministry of Magic willingly, no matter what Gringotts The goblins are still needed to produce Galleons, and Lin Ning doesn't want to attack the currency system so soon.

In addition, the flying broom is just an introduction. The forging skills of the goblins are so superb, it would be too wasteful just to let them make flying brooms.

When Lin Ning was thinking this way, the goblins were already discussing what to call the broomstick they designed.

Lin Ning thought it would be fine to call it Firebolt.

Anyway, Lin Ning successfully reached a consensus with the goblins.

Then some of them continued to work at Gringotts, and the other part was extradited by Lin Ning to the "agi&dragns store" to start designing broomsticks.During this period, Lin Ning also stole some teachers from them, and when she returned home from this busy period, she even brought back a divination bird.

As mentioned earlier, the pen of acceptance is made of Bu Toba. The classification level of this magical animal is xx. It is native to Britain and Ireland. It is a sad and thin bird.Its whole body is green and shiny, and its shape is a bit like a malnourished little vulture. It is also very shy. It will build nests in thorn bushes and eat large insects and fairies. It only comes out to fly when it rains heavily, and usually hides there. In a pear-shaped nest.

The deep, trembling call of the Boo bird is unique. People once believed that the sound heralded death. Many wizards who believed in it heard the sound of the Boo bird, even though they did not see it. However, they all suffered from heart disease. However, through the study of patients, it was found that the Bu bird only calls when the heavy rain comes. Howling was unbearable.

It is worth mentioning that the Xiaohongshu Publishing House owned by Lin Ning had previously published a book written by the wizard Griffo Pokebi, "Why Didn't I Die When the Bud Bird Howled?" ", sold well for a while.

When Lin Ning brought the Bu bird home, she first revealed her intention for bringing it back.

The White Queen asked, "Can you understand what it's calling?"

Lin Ning shook his head.

The White Queen asked again: "Then Emil, why can you understand what the pitcher plants are calling?"

Nepenthes didn't even think about this question. When the White Queen said this, it looked over with burning eyes.

Lin Ning thought for a while and said: "Fate, it's all fate." She was still a snake at that time, so she would be able to understand the supernatural powers of dog language, as for later?That's probably a gift from the system.

The White Queen said no more.

Nepenthes just took one more look at the Bu bird, seeing that there was nothing unique about it, so it withdrew its gaze, and once the Bu bird was let go by Lin Ning, it flew away quickly.It couldn't fly out of the yard, so it had to choose a place it thought was relatively safe to build its nest, avoiding the Nepenthes that put it under a lot of pressure as much as possible, and after confirming that the Nepenthes would not come to eat it, it also It didn't come out of the newly built nest, and after waiting for a long time, it made a low, trembling, heartbreaking cry, which was still the one that didn't stop.

Considering the time of day, this bodes well for heavy rain.

Lin Ning didn't pay much attention to it, just plucked out one of its feathers for research. On the contrary, when the snake's head heard the bird's cry, it froze for a moment and then hissed: "What kind of bird is this?" '

Voldemort Five said: 'The Divination Bird. '

Rune Snake Ben Snakehead: 'We haven't eaten this bird before, have we?want to eat. '

Before Voldemort Five had time to say anything, Voldemort himself said: "The Bu bird is not tasty at all, it is full of bones, and it is very thin, not enough to fit between the teeth." '

Voldemort Five: '...Have you eaten? '

Voldemort: '... Nagini ate it!Where did you go? 'The Albanian forests he's hiding in won't have any boobies, will they?

Rune snake head: "Although I know you are both crazy, but I still want to ask who is Nagini?"Is it a snake?If yes, male and female?Alas, forget it, I still don't want to know, with our current appearance, we will have to harm other females by then. ' As it said that, it became depressed, and even Bu Niao didn't want to eat any more.

Voldemort Five: '……'

Voldemort himself: '...'

It took Voldemort Five a long time before he spoke again: 'Where's Nagini? '

Voldemort was silent for a while before he said: "I'm not very clear, since that incident happened, I have been separated from Nagini. 'He originally wanted to get back Nagini, who had been with him since he was a child, after he regained his body.But let alone regaining his physical body now, he can still get out of this runic snake.

And that Nagini is indeed a snake, or a female snake.

Voldemort Five also understood what he meant, and he himself was powerless.He was just a split soul piece, and his abilities were completely inferior to Voldemort's own demon.It is even more difficult for them to change the status quo now, besides, can they place their hopes on another Horcrux?That's impossible to predict. Does anyone know if 'Lockhart' is also waiting to destroy other Horcruxes?So they can't hope that the other horcruxes will make a difference, they can only find a way to open a breakthrough from 'Lockhart'.

Voldemort Fifth thought again, didn't Dumbledore have great love in his heart, why didn't he find out about Lockhart's ambition?Obviously everyone is equally ambitious!

Suddenly, Voldemort Five and Voldemort looked at each other, and they spoke almost at the same time.

Lord Voldemort: 'I activated the Dark Mark. '

Voldemort Five: 'Lockhart has a Time-Turner. '

Voldemort Five froze for a moment, then quickly hissed: "Why didn't you think of the Time-Turner before?"You can use the time-turner to switch to that Pote before he was born, kill his parents, and see how he was born again! '

Voldemort himself: '...' He had nothing to say, he really didn't expect to be able to do this at the time.But he can't blame him, he was the greatest wizard at that time, he was fearless, he never thought that he would be defeated by the so-called prophesied savior.

Rune Snake Ben Snakehead interjected suddenly: 'You never remember that I can hear you and that Lockhart can understand Parseltongue, do you?If I were Lockhart, I'd be on my guard against you since the last time I knew you two were trying to kill him.Looking at your stupid looks, I can tell that you have thought of this at all, but you are really stupid. '

Voldemort himself: '...'

Voldemort Five: '……'

Lin Ning said that she was very insightful in keeping the consciousness of the snake head of the rune snake, and it must have come true, and Lin Ning could indeed hear the plot of Voldemort No. [-] and Voldemort himself. Yes, even if she's not here, she's not around here, she just has a surveillance camera 'bug' that's not easy to detect.That is to say, the conversation between the two of them was clearly heard by Lin Ning. Leaving aside the consequences of activating the Dark Mark, Lin Ning does have one of the time converters mentioned by Voldemort No. [-]. She got it back from the Department of Mysteries, but she never used it.

The minimum time that the Time-Turner can currently reverse is one hour, which is limited by hundreds of regulations.

In the original book, in the third year, Professor McGonagall applied to the Ministry of Magic for a time-turner in order to allow Hermione to take all the courses.

As far as Hermione is concerned, she reverses through the time converter, so that she can have an extra hour to read another course that coincides with the previous class.

When she uses the time converter, the memory in the reversal time can be preserved, and according to the setting of the time converter, her body will experience one hour more, that is to say, every time she reverses an additional hour, her body It will be "old" for an hour. It can be said that fortunately she only used it for three months. Otherwise, if she has been using it until she graduates from Hogwarts, her biological age will not be, but eighteen plus five years old.

What's more, in Lin Ning's view, when using the time converter, he has already arrived in another parallel world, and the Hermione who came back is also the Hermione of another parallel world.However, in the setting of the original author, there is no such setting, but they are all the same person, but Lin Ning does not want to verify it himself, because although there is no parallel world in the setting, this cannot be determined, and there is Reversing time will cause a butterfly effect, but this one is beyond doubt, and it is also the original setting.

Lin Ning's determination is based on the records of the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic.

It turned out that in 1, a silent man of the Department of Mysteries (the Department of Mysteries is the top secret organization of the Ministry of Magic, no one has ever known what they are doing, their mission is top secret, and the staff is called the silent man) Heloise Mintenberg, who was experimented with using a time-turner to travel back in time, was trapped in 99 for five days, and when she finally returned to the beginning, her body age was increased by five centuries , the damage was irreparable, leading to her death at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Wounds before the Department of Mysteries could find a way to save her.

To make matters worse, because of her stay in the distant past, there was a serious disturbance in the life trajectory of the people she knew, the change was so great that more than 25 of their descendants disappeared from modern times, becoming " was never born".

Besides, the week of Héloise Mintenberg's reappearance lasted two and a half days on Tuesday and only four hours on Thursday.

Since then, the Ministry of Magic has adopted the strictest laws and penalties to regulate these researches on time travel, and only the Ministry of Magic has time converters.

Lin Ning has carefully studied the records of the Department of Mysteries, and before 1, time travel has actually been studied by many people, and even personally verified, those materials are enough.In addition, it is not the first time that Lin Ning has come across time-related inventions. She has traveled through time more than once in the ib world, so let's study the wizard's birth record manual.

As for Voldemort No. [-], who had the idea of ​​a time-turner, he didn't mention it again, and Voldemort himself remained silent. adapt.

Ugh.

Lin Ning was not idle. After the "Marriage Law", the Ministry of Magic issued several decrees one after another. Before the end of the Hogwarts school year, all wizards living in the wizarding world now have a legal status.Of course, this is only registered with the Ministry of Magic, and then the Ministry of Magic will introduce a corresponding welfare system, first allowing them to enjoy the rights of legal wizards, and then gradually map out the corresponding obligations they should pay.

Lin Ning's plan is to popularize and legalize taxation alone within this year.

As far as the current wizarding world is concerned, they are still immersed in the "honey" given by the Ministry of Magic, and they haven't realized that this is a sugar-coated cannonball.In addition, they couldn't hide their excitement, because the savior will come to Hogwarts to study in the second half of the year!

Welcome welcome, warm welcome.
