Chapter 272 Disaster
My descendants who saw the message
Yes, I saw something very scary in the ruins.
I can't describe what I saw in words. Those things are like whispers, more like a warning.
Those things went directly into my mind, and I couldn't even write them down.
A great disaster, an unprecedented disaster.
Order will always become disorder.
To fight against disasters, we must turn disorder into order.
You have the blood of Salazar Slytherin in your body.
You will become an important figure in the wizarding world.
As a descendant of Slytherin, I believe you will make a difference in the wizarding world.
There is something I need you to do here.
Limit the number of wizards, and make sure that the abstract things that cannot be accurately described in ancient magic disappear completely!
I will buy you time-my descendants, this is Slytherin's mission.
The message is very short. It can be seen that Slytherin wants to say something very much, but doesn't know how to describe it.
Especially those that are ordered and disordered, very abstract, Zhang Xiao's first reaction was whether Slytherin had realized the "increase of entropy".
The world will indeed be destroyed because of the increase of entropy, but the time of this destruction needs to be discussed.
Maybe the earth will explode, and this process is only halfway through.
Worrying about this is like worrying about nothing.
And speaking of disasters and the like.
A wooden box was found in the Qiankun bag, which contained the gift given by Dumbledore on the first Christmas, a letter from Slytherin to Gryffindor.
"Godric, no!
Absolutely not! Hogwarts can no longer recruit Muggles!
I don't agree!
Remember the ruins I told you about?
It's the ancient ruins I found last time. We agreed to explore together, but now you are obsessed with teaching the little wizards.
I went there by myself! The curses and mechanisms inside took me a lot of effort!
But I gained a lot!
I found a terrible thing inside, so terrible that until now, my body is still shaking, as if I was fished out of ice!
If my guess is correct, continuing to recruit Muggle wizards will bring us big trouble!
After comparing, if I guessed correctly, the ruins that Slytherin found in the murals are the ruins mentioned in this letter?
Zhang Xiao pinched his chin, put the letter and parchment together, and was a little entangled in the letter. mentioned.
An unreliable idea came up.
Voldemort. Could it be that he thought about purifying the wizarding world every day after reading this note?
After thinking it over again and again, Zhang Xiao still felt that it was not possible. If Voldemort really had this idea, he would have publicized it with great fanfare.
How could he come up with a Death Eater that was more like a rogue organization than a meaningless one?
Well. He should be simply bad.
Zhang Xiao took back his divergent thoughts.
The research notes improved order and disorder, in addition to the number of wizards, and also made ancient magic disappear.
This is very interesting. Ancient magic is abstract, just like what Slytherin said before.
The simplest floating spell has four different readings.
Not to mention the way everyone releases magic. At that time, everyone still firmly believed that their own magic was not good enough. The blood of trolls and the like are the best media.
Although there are various shortcomings, ancient magic also has advantages that modern spells cannot match.
That is, the power is far greater than modern magic, and the effects that can be achieved are relatively complex.
But why did Slytherin emphasize that ancient magic must be completely eliminated?
What is the connection between ancient magic and the number of wizards?
The letter Slytherin wrote to Gryffindor was not so detailed, only saying that no more Muggle wizards could be recruited
Dumbledore said————
Wait a minute, Zhang Xiao was stunned, his eyes staring back and forth on the letter.
There was also a note from Dumbledore,
Suddenly he slapped his thigh, and grabbed the teapot in annoyance to fill himself with water.
He made a self-examination with great pain: Zhang Xiao, Zhang Xiao, even if you are talented and have a good status, you have no feet Stepping on the East and the West, with a little insignificant strength.
Destined to be a peerless genius who dominates the East and the West in the future.
But who do you think you are? Have you considered this problem of the destruction of the world?
When the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. Are you tall? Are you tall? You are tall ass!
Dumbledore is not taller than you?
So what are you worrying about here? Isn't it enough to just throw it to Dumbledore and let him worry?
Having made up his mind, Zhang Xiao immediately packed up his things and rushed straight to the principal's office.
Only those who have experienced this can understand how good it feels to find a thigh to hold when encountering a problem.
Not to mention that he has two such thighs, one in the East and one in the West.
For the West, Dumbledore is Optimus Prime, so after he died in his previous life, Harry and others, even the Ministry of Magic, Scrimgeour seemed confused and at a loss.
The password of the principal's office must be asked to Professor McGonagall. Only the principal and the vice-principal know every time the password changes.
Professor McGonagall gave the password to himself without even asking.
It was this password 'Drunken Peanuts'. Could it be that the principal was hinting at something?
Zhang Xiao squeezed the peanuts in his bag and decided that it would be best to give some to Dumbledore.
If going to the Room of Requirement is like going home, then going to the principal's office is like visiting a neighbor.
Those portraits are no longer shy, but greeted enthusiastically.
Phineas Black is the most enthusiastic of the many portraits of the principal.
"Zhang, you haven't been to the principal's office for a long time!"
Phineas waved at him, holding a glass of wine from an unknown portrait.
Some portraits have been instilled with memories of food, so they can taste the taste.
But doing so consumes a lot of the subject and materials, and generally speaking, few people are willing to do this.
But Phineas is obviously not one of them, because he can always tell the taste of each kind of food very accurately.
He took a sip of the wine, and his goatee face wrinkled up, saying with disgust
"Damn, this tastes weird, like spoiled beer, sour and bitter!"
He raised his hand and shouted at a short and fat portrait whose name Zhang Xiao didn't know:
"Dude, when they were painting, why didn't you ask for two bottles of expensive wine?
The wine in the portrait will never be finished anyway!"
The short and fat portrait looked unfriendly, holding the bottle, and seemed to want to give him a good beating, but in the end he cursed:
"Shut up, Black! No one invited you to drink, you asked for it! Do you understand? You forced yourself to ask for it."
Phineas threw the wine glass behind his head and curled his lips to express his disdain for the inferior wine:
"Zhang, how is my poor junior? Has he found the girl he likes?
I never thought that the Black family would fall to this point one day!"
But the other portraits were obviously very satisfied with the Black family's experience, and they all expressed their feelings by clapping and cheering.
Zhang Xiao pulled over a chair with a red velvet cushion and sat down to chat with the portraits.
All kinds of strange silverware on the table spewed thin smoke, and they were quietly running according to the established track.
The golden bracket was empty, and Fox, the old pervert, was not there, and it still owed itself a tail feather.
Could it be hiding from debt?
Zhang Xiao pulled the principal's candy box over and opened it, but it was a pile of cockroaches. These candies were wriggling inside, just like real ones.
No, I couldn't eat it, so I gently pressed a small mechanism next to the box. With a "click", the candy box opened in all directions like a flower, revealing all kinds of candies.
What is "easy to drive a car and familiar with it"? This is easy to drive a car and familiar with it!
Zhang Xiao happily chose the sizzling bee candy, which tasted very good.
Dumbledore seemed to have something to deal with. After about ten minutes, he came out of the living room on the second floor wearing a light robe.
He didn't wear his iconic glasses, and his blue eyes just looked at him, looking in a good mood.
Zhang Xiao casually clapped his hands, removed the icing on his hands, stood up and greeted politely:
"Professor, good afternoon~"
Dumbledore walked over quickly, called two cups of hot tea, and asked with interest:
"Good afternoon, Zhang, you won't come to me when you have nothing to do, have you encountered any problems again?"
I don't come to the temple for no reason!
Zhang Xiao shrugged, opened the box sealed with the Ravenclaw crown, and pushed it in the direction of Dumbledore.
With just one glance, Dumbledore's smile froze. He looked at Zhang Xiao, and then at the gray crown inside.
His long white eyebrows trembled, and he stood up directly, looking at it carefully.
Another Horcrux? ? ?
Since Zhang got the diary, those Horcruxes are like carrots in the field. Every once in a while, this magical Slytherin student will take out one.
Is it so easy to find?
If he hadn't found a clue to a Horcrux recently, Dumbledore would have suspected that Zhang Xiao had already found all the Horcruxes!
Dumbledore's slender fingers gently rubbed the gray crown, and as he moved, a touch of bright color appeared on the crown, as if it was washed with water, shining brightly.
He picked up the crown and gently rubbed the inside of the crown with his fingertips.
After a while, a line of small words appeared on the inside of the crown:
"Wit Beyond Measure is Man's Greatest Treasure"
(Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind)
"Ravenclaw's crown" Dumbledore muttered to himself, looking at the crown in his hand absent-mindedly.
Adding Slytherin's pendant box, Dumbledore thought of a lot in an instant.
The portraits were also silent, and only the silver alchemical tools in the empty headmaster's office made a crisp sound of tinkling.
"Zhang, you thought of it too, didn't you?"
Dumbledore suddenly asked softly.
"Are you saying that the remaining Horcruxes are most likely relics left by the founder?"
Zhang Xiao did not hide it. Anyone with a normal IQ would think of this possibility.
Dumbledore pointed to a cabinet in the corner, where a gorgeous silver sword lay quietly.
"Gryffindor's sword, Slytherin's locket, Ravenclaw's diadem, Hufflepuff's gold cup.
This is the favorite artifact of the four founders, but only Gryffindor left his sword on campus.
So Voldemort has never been able to get it.
It seems that I need to investigate the whereabouts of the golden cup."
Dumbledore's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally almost inaudible. He breathed a sigh of relief, put his hand on the box, and asked easily:
"Can you tell me how you found it?"
Zhang Xiao stood up and put the diary on the table.
Before speaking, Dumbledore's eyes narrowed, as if he thought of something.
"Professor, I was thinking that Slytherin had not left anything else except the basilisk, so I asked about the diary.
I got a positive answer. In addition to the basilisk, Slytherin also left a lot of research materials.
It's just that a large part of it was taken away by Tom. "
Zhang Xiao skipped the stage of learning black magic, although Dumbledore might have known it.
"Slytherin's research materials? ”
Dumbledore repeated, nodding gently:
“It is reasonable to guess that since the founder left behind the Chamber of Secrets, he would certainly leave other valuable legacies for the younger generations.”
Zhang Xiao hummed, and then said:
“These things were hidden by Tom in the Room of Requirement. When I followed Tom’s instructions to find the hidden research materials, I also found it by the way, and they were piled together.”
Is it so simple?
Dumbledore thought of the Slytherin pendant box that he found by accident, and suddenly felt that Zhang might have special luck in finding Horcruxes.
Why not take Zhang with him when he goes to find the next Horcrux?
Originally, Dumbledore planned to go alone, but now he suddenly thought that taking Zhang with him was a good choice.
After sighing for a while about Tom’s bad luck (three souls were found in one year), Dumbledore finally shifted his interest to Slytherin’s research notes.
“Zhang, if it’s convenient, the things left by Slytherin.”
“Of course! Professor, I was going to show it to you first. "
Zhang Xiao patted his Qiankun bag, and the parchment scrolls flew out and were neatly stacked on the table.
Dumbledore tapped his finger on the table lightly, and the parchments were immediately arranged neatly in the air and slowly opened.
It was exactly the same as when Zhang Xiao saw it. It can only be said that in terms of laziness, human beings are surprisingly similar.
Dumbledore's eyes quickly scanned the sheepskin and said easily:
"Oh-I was wondering how Tom could have such profound knowledge of physical transformation.
It turned out to be because of these. Physical transformation is a very academic thing, and it takes a lot of time to learn and study.
It seems that Slytherin's research materials saved him a lot of effort.
But I think that instead of changing myself into that look, it is better to--"
Dumbledore's expression suddenly became serious, and Zhang Xiao immediately sat up straight with a serious and heavy expression on his face.
The principal's eyes quickly scanned the last piece of parchment, and almost subconsciously turned it over.
He glanced at his student with a meaningful look-I said why I feel that you are a little bit wrong.
Waiting for me here, right!
