[Comprehensive] Road to Trench

Although Mr. Badman's proposal is quite convenient and reasonably avoids the risk of kidnapping a generation of Dark Lords, of course, it is impossible for a warrior to become a "rescued princess".

Therefore, the candidates for the "important person" of the Durmstrang Warriors have to be drawn again.

After experiencing "Ogden" (Dumbledore: "I remember this seems to be a saint?" Others: "...do it again."), "Antana" (Karkaroff: "...this I don’t know anyone! I can’t find it! Smoke it again!” Dumbledore and others: ... This performance fully shows that this is another saint.), “Hans” (Karkaroff directly took the sheepskin Put the paper back into the Goblet of Fire, and use practical actions to tell them that the owner of this name is probably also a saint) After a series of incidents that can almost be said to be the exposure of the list of saints, the Goblet of Fire was weak (God knows how they got from a The trophy (seeing this) spewed parchment with charred edges: "Viktor Krum."

Finally, the candidate was decided, and almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, okay, Miss Barnes is missing!" Ludo Badman relaxed at the dawn of victory that he could see: this little Muggle-born wizard will never make any trouble What a moth?

Facts have proved that fg cannot be established.

The first name spouted by the Goblet of Fire was James Barnes.

"I think in the next session, we should add a restriction to the Goblet of Fire, which is to put an end to Muggles—if the next session of the Goblet of Fire has such a level to save the important people of the warrior." I learned this from Dumbledore The Muggle uncle whose name belongs to the warrior, Ludo Badman sighed.

He still wants to go back to dancing!The dance party is at its peak!

"Miss Barnes and her uncle have a very good relationship, it's not surprising." Dumbledore smiled, and then took the parchment that was sprayed out again by the Goblet of Fire, "Uh... Agana Sifiasha Haye inside?"

Dumbledore showed a puzzled look on his face: "Maybe I'm old... Severus, do you remember who this is?"

"I only know that Miss Barnes's pet is Agana." The Potions professor replied with a cold face.

Dumbledore suddenly realized: "Oh, I remembered, it's Miss Barnes's pet, and it used to overwhelm Severus on the emoji download list for a long time!"

"..."

Professor Snape looked as if he really wanted to press the headmaster in front of him into his cauldron.

Dumbledore was still thinking about another thing that puzzled him: "But, did Miss Barnes give Agana a last and middle name?"

Who has the time to give middle and last names to their pets?Even if you really have a surname, you should put your own surname on it, right?

"Since it's not, let's go next." Ludo Badman said impatiently, his heart had already flown into the auditorium, and he could almost hear the singing of the weird sisters, "Come on, Goblet of Fire, this Forfeit it, and just choose Miss Barnes' candidate... Goblet of Fire?"

I saw that the flame burning in the goblet of fire placed in the center was slowly shrinking, as if a person was sluggish, but soon, it suddenly rose again, and the blue flame erupted like fireworks!

A dozen pieces of parchment were sprayed out in one breath, and fell like snowflakes, falling on the heads and shoulders of everyone in the room, sparking a little spark.

Crowd: "..."

After spraying this wave, the Goblet of Fire resumed its quiet burning appearance - no matter how badly Badman used the spell to drive it, he would not respond at all.

People also have a temper! ——by the Goblet of Fire who can't speak but can still lose his temper

Dumbledore waved his wand, gathered the parchments scattered in every corner of the room with sparks on the edges, and looked at them for a while. Very good, the list basically included Hogwarts, Hufflepuff and Gregory. Ranffindor first-year students, including a few familiar or unfamiliar names—probably people they met outside of school.

He picked up the top one—coincidentally, the top one was Hannah Abbott, Alex's roommate.

Glancing at the other people who were also a little helpless by the explosion of the Goblet of Fire, Dumbledore put the parchment in the list of candidates - no one had any objections.

The twists and turns of the candidate matter finally came to a successful conclusion...well, probably successfully.

Avoiding the lively auditorium, Mikhail took Alex's hand and walked in the garden outside the auditorium.

The cold moonlight poured down like mercury, covering the ground.Magic is miraculous, the rose that should not have appeared in such a cold night is blooming like a flame, and the dark blue leaves are quiet and peaceful, quietly supporting its queen of flowers.

There are also some people in the garden, probably out of breath, not everyone likes to be lively.

Unknowingly, the two walked into a secluded corner.

Along the road that was neatly formed by the bushes, at the end is the Black Lake, with a park-like rest bench next to it. When you get here, the hustle and bustle in the castle becomes far away, and you can only faintly hear some voices over there.

Suddenly, Mihail remembered the past.

At that time, when the illithid who was not called Alex took him away from the capital of the illithid, it seemed to be like this scene.

It's just that in the underground world without the sun and moon, it is the insignificant luminous moss that provides light.

His injury is still not healed, and he can only guarantee basic activities, but he can't delay any longer, and the illithids will find him—a living human being who is not a tadpole candidate, appearing on the illithids' side In the capital city, this is a major event that is enough to make the mastermind furious.

The illithid walking in front branched out a tentacles, wrapped around his wrist, and pulled him away from the capital.

He could feel that his body was covered with spiritual power belonging to the spirit sucker, which was used to hide him so that other spirit suckers could not find his whereabouts.

Why didn't the spirit sucker kill him, but save him instead?

He doesn't understand.

Now that his father, who should be closest to him, personally ordered him to be hunted down, and his subordinates who swore eternal allegiance pierced his body with the sword he gave him, and now he is feared and shunned by his old friends like the plague, he is ready to die in the underground world But at this moment, when he finally killed the pursuers and was about to die from serious injuries, a spirit sucker saved him.

The whole underworld and even the most notorious races of the surface world, the best of the ruthless race born of sin, whose veins flow not with blood but with intrigue and cunning - the elders of the illithids were never See who was elected with a kind face—such a spirit sucker, when he saw him, he didn't dig out his brain and eat it, but saved him?

He even thought that he had lost too much blood and had hallucinations.

How strange that those who were like him would have spent their lives killing him, to be saved by this monster with its frightening tentacles and appearance.

How terrible, he was betrayed, his last bit of trust was wiped out, and then when he was determined to give up everything from now on, he met a spirit sucker.

An illithid that is as sinister and cunning as the rumors say, and uses all means to achieve its goals. It can kill all life in sight without changing its face, but would rather die than eat a bite of the brains of intelligent creatures.

A human illithid more than he was born a human.

"Are you tired?" Even though part of his mind was immersed in the memories of the past, Mihaier was the first to notice the inconspicuous tiredness in Alex's eyes, "Let's take a rest here."

As he spoke, he took Alex's hand and sat down on the edge of the bench.

The location of this corner is very good, the wind in the cold night is blocked by the bushes, which adds a bit of warmth to the place. Alex is next to Mikhail, looking at the silvery lake under the moonlit night, feeling tired.

"Let me rest for a while, you haven't had a good rest these days..."

The soft whisper in her ear was low and gentle, urging her to close her eyes like a lullaby—so she closed them.

fell asleep.

"why do not you eat?"

In the long-lost dream, the illithid killed the pursuers—those humans who hadn’t appeared in the underground world for a long time came for the blond humans it saved.

The blood all over the ground seeped into the black soil, but there was still no way to dye the land even a little reddish brown.

For tens of thousands of years, there have been too many killings and blood on this land. The soil has long been entangled by the resentment and killing intent of the dead, turning it into permanent black.

【what? 】

The voice of the illithid sounded directly in the mind of the blond human, which was the most basic use of spiritual power of the illithid.

"Aren't these on your recipe?" The blond human was unable to move because of his injuries, but he still bent down and split the head of the priest's corpse at his feet with a dagger.

"Isn't this your food?" He used a dagger to gouge out part of the gray brain and asked.

【I will not eat. ] The illithid replied.

"why?"

[That's wrong—it's wrong to eat a body part of an intelligent creature. 】

The blond-haired human seemed overwhelmed by its answer, and didn't answer for a long time.

"...So, you, have never... eaten brains?" His disbelief was written on his face.

What answered him was the unbelievably soft voice that the spirit sucker sent into his head as always: 【Yes. 】

It wasn't until the night when he set up camp that he spoke again: "Do you have a name?"

Of course there was, but that was the name of the illithid, and it didn't like it at all.

【You only know me as a spirit sucker. 】

Therefore, there is no need to call the name, just call the spirit breath monster.

"Even if there is a name, it must be the name of the illithid. May I give you a name? A human name." The blond youth who said this seemed to have light in his eyes. The illithid had never seen that pair of eyes before. There was light in the eyes as dark as the sea on the eve of the storm, "Alexandra, how are you? My name is Alex, okay?"

The illithid nodded dispensably: [Just as long as you are happy. 】

But the blond young man obviously didn't think so. He even pushed his unhealed body with difficulty, moved to the side of the illithid, and grabbed one of its tentacles-this action frightened the illithid far more than others. , the tentacle was so obvious that it jumped in shock, if it wasn't for the blond young man with sharp eyesight and quick hands to grab it, it might have been out of his hand.

Because of this action, the young man's wound was involved, and he couldn't help coughing in a low voice, which stopped the spirit sucker who was about to walk away.

until he catches his breath.

"The name means 'the guardian of mankind'." The blond youth held on to its tentacles and said with a smile, "Alex, you are my guardian."

"It's not that you saved me, nor that you promised to protect me and send me back to the earth, but..."

"Alex, if I want to do something you think is wrong, then stop me—it doesn't matter if you kill me, you saved my life."

It finds it incredible: [You let a spirit sucker judge the moral bottom line of human beings? 】

"I also find it unbelievable." The blond young man said this, but the smile on his face was as real as the temperature in his palm, and there was a hot feeling, "But, the truth is like this."

Alex, you are a monster, but you have a human heart.

Brighter than diamonds, more precious than gold.

Soft and warm.

"Alex?"

When he opened his eyes, he saw Mikhail's worried eyes. It took Alex a second to get out of the dream.

Then she realized that she was pillowing Michael's leg.

"Why are you crying?" The blond boy's hand stopped at the corner of her eyes, and a tear was gently wiped away by him.

"...It's nothing." Alex sat up, raised his hand, and wiped away the tears hanging from the corner of his eyes, "I had a dream."

"What dream?" Makes you so sad?

Alex was silent for a moment, and said, "I dreamed of a first love that was impossible to be together."

The memory of the blond young man who told the illithid, "You have a human heart" is the only light in the gloomy dream.

It is the treasure that it waited for after hundreds of years of struggling in pain as a monster.
