HP's Platinum Temptation

Dumbledore stared blankly at the closed cover of the Book of Time, and asked after a while, "So, this time, you want to capture the main soul of the Dark Lord?"

"Of course not, I just want to confirm the location of the Dark Lord. If the Horcruxes are not destroyed, the Dark Lord will not really die. We still have no way to solve the soul piece on Harry's forehead, so we can't rush to deal with the Dark Lord. Otherwise, if he resurrects through Harry, it will probably break everyone's heart." Clarence said innocently: "By the way, if you can see the Dark Lord himself, you will probably be able to believe what I said That's part of the information."

"Oh? Does the trust of an old man have any special meaning to you?" Dumbledore smiled again.

"This is natural. Our knowledge is far behind yours, so we naturally hope to get your help. To be honest, the ring of the Gunter family makes me feel very tricky. If possible, after this trip is over, I want to I invite you to go there together during the summer vacation." Clarence was of course a big flatterer.The purely magical difficulties were the hardest he could confidently solve on his own.And in the original book, the problem of the ring was solved by Dumbledore alone.For the process, there is not too much description.Only the headmaster's withered arm can truly prove the power of the ring.

When it comes to eliminating Horcruxes, obviously everyone can stand on the same side, and cooperation is of course more advantageous.

"Why do you know that the Dark Lord is in Albania and not in other countries?" Dumbledore asked a very direct question, and it was crucial.

"The Dark Lord is weak, and he needs help from others to regain his strength." Clarence lied naturally: "If you were the Dark Lord, when you needed help from others, you would hide in the A place where no one can find it? Or hide in a place where your friends or subordinates can find it?" Clarence's eyes naturally turned to Lucius at this time.

Dumbledore showed a surprised expression at the answer, and looked at Lucius at the same time.

"The Horcrux matter involves his own safety. Naturally, the Dark Lord will not tell the Death Eaters. But if he asks for help, it doesn't matter. Even if the Death Eaters don't plan to help him, they won't have the guts to come and hurt him." Carat Lance spoke again, drawing Dumbledore's attention back: "But the Dark Lord himself probably didn't realize that it's not just his enemies who don't want him back."

This is a typical misleading language. Clarence used a rhetorical question and then added a false premise to create the feeling that some Death Eaters headed by Lucius are not really loyal.Although this is still not enough to wash away Lucius' history, it is not impossible to shake the original image of Lucius in Dumbledore's mind.

"Then do you have any plans?" Dumbledore still wouldn't respond positively: "The area of ​​this forest is not small."

"I don't think he will hide deep in the forest, because he needs to stay where people will appear. Originally, I planned that three people would disguise themselves and enter the forest to find potion materials as a cover. But I suddenly remembered a Question." Clarence looked down from Dumbledore's eyes, showing a clear look: "Your magic power fluctuations don't seem to be completely restrained. Is it possible that the Dark Lord recognizes your breath?"

Dumbledore froze again.

The convergence of magic fluctuations is not a big problem for this old man who is over a hundred years old.Clarence's question clearly falls into the category of knowingly asking.Normal people can tell that Clarence's next step is to come up with a strategy for dividing troops.Naturally, Dumbledore and Lucius would not fail to understand.However, the division of troops was not Clarence's ultimate goal.

"If you will be recognized by the Dark Lord, we can go in two ways. But if we go separately, contact will be a big problem. I heard that you have created a high-level Patronus Charm, which can be passed through the Patronus News. I wonder if you can teach us?" Clarence continued without waiting for Dumbledore's answer.

"Advanced Patronus Charm?" Dumbledore's surprised eyes shifted from Clarence's smiling face to Lucius' stunned face.

"What's the matter, can't it?" Clarence's innocent eyes flicked back and forth between the other two.

"Death Eaters don't have a patron saint." Lucius put away his astonishment, and his tone became low: "Don't you know?"

"But Mr. Snape has a Patronus?" Clarence continued his innocence with a smile.

"Severus, he is..." Lucius' voice stopped abruptly, and he looked at Clarence again, only to feel that the innocent look in his eyes was actually more like a slow calculation.

"Oh, Henry is right." Dumbledore also came to his senses, stroked his beard with a smile, and stopped talking.

Clarence had asked Snape curiously what Lucius' Patronus was like.

As a result, the answer he got was a pair of blank eyes.

The Patronus Charm is said to be the embodiment of justice, although this reason sounds a bit high-sounding.However, it is true that Death Eaters have no choice but to use the Patronus Charm.And the ability to communicate through the Patronus is derived from Dumbledore's original advanced Patronus Charm.Snape didn't have a patron saint from the beginning, but after he took refuge in Dumbledore.The appearance of the patron saint of the doe was also one of the factors that prompted Dumbledore to believe in Snape.

Emotions and emotions are also important factors affecting the change of a wizard's magic power, and there is no need for artificial judgment standards.

If Snape was able to summon the Patronus for Lily, then Lucius, who changed his position, would naturally be able to join the ranks.

If Lucius could indeed summon the Patronus, it would be the most favorable proof of what Clarence had done before.Knowing this, Lucius looked at Clarence with complicated eyes.

This is one of the reasons why Clarence insisted on dragging the awkward Lucius on this trip.

After understanding Clarence's intention, the subsequent discussion was temporarily put on hold.

The Patronus Charm is still somewhat difficult for senior Hogwarts students, but it is not a difficult problem that needs to be spent several months to ponder for Lucius' magic level that is fully in line with the combat effectiveness of an adult wizard.

"Henry, you seem to have a good relationship with Mr. Malfoy." While Lucius was practicing the Patronus Charm, Dumbledore, who was sitting next to him and guiding him, asked slowly while holding the lemon candy jar from Clarence road.

"Of course, we are partners." Clarence replied affirmatively.

"Is it just a partner, huh?" Dumbledore let out the kind of meaningful laughter that old people often have.As if to say, no need to explain, I understand.

"It's just a very good partner at the moment." Clarence then added.

"Oh, ha ha." Compared to asking questions, Dumbledore obviously preferred to figure out the truth of the matter by himself.

"In fact, I personally prefer to find the position of the Dark Lord by dividing into two sides. The goal of three people is too obvious." Clarence consciously started another topic, and handed over a sub-phone of the water mirror: "This can be done without When it is discovered, it will make a lot of noise. Therefore, if it is to transmit information in an emergency, the advanced Patronus Charm is more effective."

"Mr. Malfoy should have the Dark Mark on him, right? Tom should be able to sense it." Dumbledore shook his head, as if to express that it was an incorrect decision to let Lucius come over.

"The crown can help him isolate the induction for a short period of time, if it is supported by my magic power." Clarence obviously did not think about this issue: "So don't worry about it."

"Are there any other clues besides the edge of the forest?" Dumbledore asked.

"The Dark Lord did not leave any more information, but we speculate that he should be possessed by snakes. Ordinary snakes and possessed snakes should still be able to be distinguished. The Dark Lord has a pet snake Her name is Nagini, and her size is definitely not within the limit of normal snakes. This target is more obvious. But her attack power should be stronger than the current Dark Lord." Clarence shared the information truthfully: "If in the end There is really no gain, and it doesn't matter much, after all, we already know that he is here, and he will eventually return to England. In comparison, finding a way to control all the Horcruxes is a more urgent matter."

Dumbledore nodded in agreement, and didn't bring up any more topics after that.

Lucius' Patronus Charm was a complete success on the third day.

"What kind of animal is this?" Dumbledore looked curiously at the not-so-big bar-shaped biological soul body between the three of them.

"It's a bit like a snake, but it has feet." Lucius couldn't figure out what his patron saint was, with a confused look on his face: "Lizard?"

"Lizards aren't that long, are they?" Dumbledore pushed his glasses with an inquiring expression, "The distance between the front and back paws is larger than that of a lizard."

"What's that? Snakes don't have feet, right?" Obviously, Lucius and Dumbledore's guesses were between snakes and lizards.

"Snakes and lizards don't have horns, do they?" Clarence pointed out another awkwardness.

"Although patron saints can fly, generally speaking, their movements are still the same as actual animals." Dumbledore pushed his glasses again: "But he doesn't seem to be crawling?"

The patron saint, whose identity had been guessed, fought back and forth between the three of them a few times. When the time came, he raised his head and flew upwards, and then turned into mist and dissipated again.

"What is your happy memory of using this spell?" Dumbledore asked finally.

Lucius frowned, casting a vague glance at Clarence.

It was this look that made Clarence's scalp tingle instantly.Damn it, he knows what species that Patronus is!

The author has something to say: Well, you already know what it is without mentioning Yuanyuan, right...

The patron saint of horses, actually feels a little bit of cheating, but in fact it is just to write it out for a refreshment

Originally, Yuanyuan wanted Daddy L's patron saint to be a polar bear.

Don't you think polar bears and snow foxes are a perfect match?

PS: Regarding the issue of the Patronus Charm, Yuanyuan is from Baidu. It says that all Death Eaters do not have a Patronus, and only the professor has a Patronus because he took refuge in Dumbledore.And the spell that uses the patron saint to convey the message is called the advanced patron saint spell. Baidu Encyclopedia said that it was invented by Dumbledore...
