Chapter 285: Vol! Earth! Demon!

Zhang Xiao always felt that Dumbledore had a very strange confidence in Tom Riddle.

That is, Tom would never use the same idea to arrange the defense of the Horcrux, which is actually true.

For Slytherin's relics, Voldemort used the most perfect protection, but the golden cup, crown and diary were much more casual.

As for the Resurrection Stone (Marvolo's ring), the original book in the previous life did not mention what kind of protection measures were taken, but it was the Resurrection Stone that made Dumbledore stumble.

It is conceivable that the defense here will definitely not be weaker than that in the cave.

As for what kind of defense it is, it will be seen soon.

Dumbledore said softly:

"Zhang, do you see anything unusual with your eyes?"

Long before Dumbledore asked, Zhang Xiao had already opened his eyes wide and stared carefully at every corner around him.

It's just that everything here is very normal, normal to a little abnormal, as if the malice he felt outside before was an illusion.

In the eyes of the law, everything here is as bright as day, and every detail is clear. The partition shelf against the wall is rotten, and there are several pottery jars leaning against it.

There is a low stool next to the shelf, and there is a dark mark on the wall where the stool is leaning, which looks a bit like a person at first glance.

There should be someone sitting on that stool and leaning against the wall all year round?

"Professor, I didn't find anything."

Dumbledore showed a mysterious smile on his face:

"Really?"

Did Dumbledore find a clue?

Sure enough, the gap between me and the boss is still ridiculously large.

"I didn't find anything either."

Zhang Xiao:.

Dumbledore's tone was joyful:

"It is precisely because I didn't find anything that I have more confidence in this place."

Ah? What's the reason?

Before Zhang Xiao could figure it out, Dumbledore had raised his wand, and just by lifting and pulling, it seemed that a gorgeous light band was pulled out of the void.

Then, with a wave of his hand, the light band became a web of light, and then it expanded rapidly to surround the entire old house.

The whole hall was like a dream, with soft streams of light and hazy colors everywhere.

Zhang Xiao looked at the scenery in front of him in amazement, and felt that magic was magical. He had been studying hard for three years, but it seemed that he was still at the starting point and had never set off.

Do whatever you want without breaking the rules!

This was the only thought Zhang Xiao had when he looked at Dumbledore at the moment.

He wondered if the spellless spell he had comprehended would be like Dumbledore in the final stage.

Everything he did and thought was magic?

Dumbledore's long eyebrows were raised high. This was the first time he showed such a surprised look in front of Zhang Xiao.

An illusory door suddenly showed its outline vaguely in front of nothing.

Damn it, how did he find it!

Zhang Xiao opened his eyes again in disbelief, and not only that, he also secretly connected the empty mirror.

Even so, in his eyes, there was still nothingness there, as if the door did not exist!

This was the first time that the eyes could not see the Dharma, but the naked eye could see it.

According to what my father said, what the naked eye can see may be false, but what the eyes can see is real.

So what is going on now?

False reality?

It is both false and real, so there is a situation where what is seen is real but the eyes cannot see it, but the naked eye can see it?

Dumbledore walked up quickly, with only concentration on his old face, and his long, slightly crooked hooked nose was about to touch the illusory door.

His long fingers gently stroked the illusory door, and murmured:

"What an incredible imagination"

Dumbledore turned around, his face full of admiration, as if he regarded this place as a classroom, and sighed:

"Zhang, do you still remember the stone cave we went to?"

Zhang Xiao nodded: "Of course I remember, Professor!"

Dumbledore let out a long sigh: "When I saw the stone door, do you know how disappointed I was?

The magic skills of the stone door may be very sophisticated, but it is like a dead object, only insidiousness and cunning.

So I was very disappointed."

Dumbledore looked back at the illusory door again, but the admiration in his eyes could not be concealed no matter what:

"But this is different. Completely different."

Zhang Xiao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and he understood what Dumbledore meant. It was probably that the stone door was too craftsmanlike. Although the skills were extremely sophisticated, it had no soul.

The design here is full of spirituality, even to the point where Dumbledore couldn't help but sigh.

It can be seen that Dumbledore was really excited. Without waiting for Zhang Xiao to ask questions, he continued to talk like a teacher who taught and answered questions.

"This door once again proves the Eastern theory, Zhang, the sixteen-year-old Tom split his soul twice, but his innate talent is still there, and it is even visible to the naked eye.

Just like you - no matter what, you can't cover up your extraordinary brilliance."

(Zhang Xiao's face began to blush)

"But when we got to the cave, Voldemort split his soul more than five times, which really caused serious mental damage, although his strength has improved by leaps and bounds and his skills have become more mature.

But that kind of -"

"Spiritual?" Zhang Xiao whispered.

"Yes, spiritual, very appropriate!" Dumbledore nodded, his interest getting higher and higher: "But that kind of innate spirituality is gone.

I'm sure that after the 18-year-old Tom set up the initial door, Voldemort came many times later.

Oh - yes, I can see - I saw, the traces of repair, once, twice, three times -

He came three times!

But it's just repair, just to fill the gap caused by insufficient power before!"

Dumbledore turned around, his blue eyes sparkling, looking at Zhang Xiao, his voice suddenly softened:

"Zhang, do you know what this means?"

Without waiting for Zhang Xiao to answer, he asked himself again.

"This shows that he did a great thing and thought he was at the top, but standing here, looking at his former self, he admitted that he was not as good as he was before!

The 50-year-old Tom stood here, and all he could see was the shadow of the 18-year-old.

The lost self, since he took that road, could not turn back!"

After Dumbledore finished speaking, the dilapidated Gaunt House was quiet.

Neither of them spoke, but just stood there, looking at the door with a little distraction.

Suddenly, Dumbledore's voice sounded softly in Zhang Xiao's ears again:

"Zhang, come on, you are also excellent at the age of 14!"

Zhang Xiao glanced at the old man and wanted to say something, but in the end he only said a soft "hmm".

"Professor, there should be a Horcrux hidden in this door, so how do we open it?"

Dumbledore shook his head, took another step forward, and placed his open palm on the illusory light door.

With his eyes slightly closed, Zhang Xiao noticed that the same illusory light suddenly flashed on the principal's hand.

After a while, Dumbledore said softly:

"Tom didn't design this for people to open, so we have to decipher it from the basics of this magic."

He paused and said a short sentence like a riddle:

"The hidden place is not visible during the day or night, and the person who lives here should enjoy eternal sleep."
