Chapter 287 A Sure Kill!

Zhang Xiao looked up in shock, looking at the starry sky. The light reflected by the door still existed.

Like a small sun, it stubbornly stayed in the starry sky.

Several light spots suddenly appeared on the illusory light gate.

Just like reflecting the light, the door also reflected the light spots on the starry sky above.

These light spots were so dazzling that even the stars were eclipsed.

Zhang Xiao stared at this dazzling scene in amazement, and suddenly couldn't help blurting out:

"Andromeda Cluster!"

Along with Zhang Xiao's voice, Dumbledore's slightly surprised voice also sounded:

"Pleiades Cluster?"

Zhang Xiao immediately looked at the old principal and found that the principal's deep blue eyes like the ocean also looked at him with a smile.

"Zhang, you can see it too?"

Zhang Xiao nodded. Andromeda Cluster, also known as Pleiades Cluster, is one of the few star clusters visible to the naked eye.

This was the first thing I came into contact with in the astronomy class, how could I not remember it.

But why did Voldemort project the Pleiades on the starry sky?

At this moment, the sunlight projected by the illusory light gate and the Pleiades suddenly began to move slowly towards each other.

At the moment of approaching, the light of the sun suddenly shone brightly, while the light of the stars of the Pleiades was restrained under this strong light.

Dumbledore was suddenly stunned, and he seemed to have thought of something.

Zhang Xiao turned his head and saw that the illusory light gate slowly condensed into a solid, just like that, from illusion to reality.

The door showed the same as the ceiling, and then slowly opened.

Dumbledore came over and stood next to Zhang Xiao, blocking him behind him.

When the door was fully opened, even Dumbledore fell into silence.

Inside the door was a large space, with blue sky and white clouds, a gentle breeze, warm sunshine - and an endless sea of ​​dandelions!

"This is."

Dumbledore looked at the scene in astonishment. Not only him, Zhang Xiao was stunned for a long time. In any case, this scene had never appeared in their imagination.

Dumbledore opened his hand again and stretched it forward. After carefully sensing for a while, he whispered:

"It should be safe."

He was silent for a while, and suddenly strode forward. Zhang Xiao hurriedly followed.

Until entering this room, it was like coming to the grassland. Everything was so real. The endless dandelions were like a dream, swaying gently.

Accompanying their steps, a wisp of wind came from nowhere, blowing the dandelions.

Those small, umbrella-like things cheered and broke away from the round umbrella handle.

Rising with the wind.

Dancing and floating with their steps.

The old and the young walked like this. Looking down from a high place, it was a picturesque scenery.

No one spoke, as if any sound would destroy this dream.

Their goal was clear, because there was a high stone platform in the middle of this sea of ​​dandelions.

Soon, the two came to the edge of the stone platform.

Once again, it was beyond the expectations of Dumbledore and Zhang Xiao.

On the rough stone platform lay a woman who looked not very old.

She was a girl wearing a gray coarse cloth dress. She looked very clean, with sparse and dull hair.

She didn't look good, on the contrary, she looked very ordinary and pale.

She was barefoot, with her hands folded on her lower abdomen, but she looked like she was asleep.

The most eye-catching thing was the ring on her left ring finger, which was inlaid with a black gemstone engraved with the Peverell emblem.

Marvolo's ring - the resurrection stone!

"Merope"

Dumbledore murmured softly, with a sigh in his voice.

Merope. Merope?

Zhang Xiao frowned, always feeling that the name was familiar.

Suddenly, he remembered the scene on the door before, and the memories that were buried deep in his memory.

He repeated it in shock:

"Merope?"

Dumbledore nodded and said in a very complicated way:

"Merope Gaunt!"

Merope Gaunt, Voldemort's biological mother, was a poor person who chose to give birth to Tom in a Muggle orphanage because of despair and died.

The origin of everything.

Besides

Zhang Xiao looked back at the door and the still dazzling pattern.

Besides, in Greek mythology, Merope was the daughter of the Titan Atlas. She was the only one among the sisters who married a mortal, and was therefore ridiculed by other gods.

More importantly, Merope was also a star in the Pleiades, that is, the Andromeda Cluster.

But Merope's light was dimmer than other stars.

I understand that the sun's light and the six shining light points on the door together are the complete Pleiades and Andromeda Cluster.

The spot of light where the sun was was exactly where Merope was, but Merope, who was supposed to be dim and invisible, was now shining brightly!

Is this what Voldemort was thinking?

Zhang Xiao was almost shocked by his discovery and lost consciousness. He looked at the endless sea of ​​dandelions.

The flower language of dandelions is - unrealistic, unsustainable love!

This obviously refers to the deformed love between Merope and old Tom Riddle, who relied on the love potion!

Voldemort. No, Tom Riddle had also longed for maternal love?

"Zhang, I think you should take a look at this."

Dumbledore obviously thought more than himself. The emotional headmaster gently brushed the slate above Merope's head.

A line of small words appeared where Dumbledore brushed.

"Legend has it that if you turn the Resurrection Stone, you will resurrect the person you want. I have turned it many times."

Damn!

Who said Voldemort didn't know about the Resurrection Stone? Who said that? He knew! He is not a fool, how could he not understand what he has in his hand.

Zhang Xiao recalled carefully. Dumbledore did say that Voldemort might not know about the Resurrection Stone, but then he said that he would not care if he knew.

Bah, he was obviously deceiving that young Harry!

But Voldemort is Voldemort after all, and he was able to break free from the Resurrection Stone.

That kind of temptation is not something that ordinary people can resist, but it also shows that Voldemort lacks emotions.

The more emotional a person is, the harder it is to get rid of the influence of the Resurrection Stone.

Zhang Xiao smacked his lips, and then he couldn't help shivering as if he had received an electric shock.

Wait a minute, Dumbledore!

Sure enough, Dumbledore only had the Resurrection Stone in his eyes, and he looked at the gem so eagerly and attentively.

Just like Gollum saw the ring, it actually made people feel a little scared.

"Professor! Professor!"

Dumbledore did not look away, but said absent-mindedly:

"What's wrong, Zhang?"

It's over! The professor is trapped!

"Should we check if there are any evil spells set on the ring?"

When he said this, Zhang Xiao had already opened his eyes and stared at the ring hard, trying to find something unusual.

But it can only be said that the Deathly Hallows are worthy of being the Deathly Hallows. In the eyes of the law, this black gem-like thing has been emitting a dark light!

Fortunately, Dumbledore seemed to still have a little reason left.

He was silent for a while, mumbling something that Zhang Xiao couldn't hear, and streams of light flashed on the ring.

Dumbledore's voice was filled with joy:

"No, it's safe."

He said this, but he had already reached out to take the damn ring.

Time seemed to be pulled away at this moment, and everything around him was slowing down.

No curse? How could there be no curse?

Am I wrong?

Zhang Xiao raised his head suddenly, and there seemed to be a storm gathering in his mind.

No! Something is wrong!

So far, all measures have been passive defense, blocking opponents.

This is not Voldemort's character, he will definitely kill!

What if all the previous things are foreshadowing?

Create a character with a trace of warmth and love in his heart?

The kindness of good people is worthless, but the warmth of bad people is praised.

If Voldemort, who is so bad that he can't be worse, suddenly shows a trace of human warmth, then the lethality of this action will be unparalleled!

Zhang Xiao only felt a deep chill all over the ground, and he suddenly realized that everything in front of him seemed to be the most lethal to Dumbledore.

In other words, Tom arranged a sure-kill situation step by step, step by step, in accordance with what Dumbledore wanted to see most in his heart.

Tom must have investigated a lot of things, and his influence on the purebloods was enough to let him know a lot of things.

So he knew what Dumbledore's biggest regret was, and he also knew how tempting the Resurrection Stone was to Dumbledore, which was like a demonic attraction!

If it was a game of skills in the cave, it was the pinnacle of Voldemort's magic skills and knowledge.

But this game was a game of humanity, a gentle knife, and a direct piercing of the heart.

This is Voldemort, the Dark Lord with unparalleled personality charm, insight into the human heart, and a huge wave in the wizarding world!

This game, Dumbledore lost.

Just as Tom thought, the more powerful the wizard, the less likely he is to be awakened when he falls into the magic barrier.

Dumbledore is like this, he has rich emotions but is extremely calm.

It is difficult to fall into that kind of madness and obsession. In Zhang Xiao's understanding, he has only fallen into it twice.

One was the regret potion in the cave, and the other was the resurrection stone.

Everything around was still in slow motion. Dumbledore had picked up the ring and was slowly putting it on his finger.

Zhang Xiao found himself surprisingly calm. It turned out that he had entered the state of emptiness without realizing it.

The principal had just checked the ring and there was no problem.

But if I were Tom, how would I activate the curse?

Yes, even if Dumbledore was possessed, the remaining rationality was enough for him to instinctively check the ring.

So if I were Voldemort, I would put the curse on the gem when it was turned.

The dead gradually returned, his mind was shaken, and his defense was at its lowest.

The ring slowly scratched the first knuckle.

There was no other way. Zhang Xiao stretched out his hand, and the lightning-struck wooden wand jumped into his hand with a buzzing sound.

The piercing chirping accompanied by the arc instantly spread to the surface of the wand.

Then go!
