Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 681 Resurrection Stone

"Severus, I think you must have forgotten what just happened, right?"

Dumbledore got up from the ground as if nothing had happened, patted the dust on his body, and asked casually.

Who would have thought that the Headmaster of Hogwarts, the most powerful wizard in the world, would be kicked to the ground by his own professor, and his face would be on the ground. If this matter got out, his old face would be completely disgraced.

Dumbledore didn't know about the others, but he was certain that Doug McPhail would be so excited that he was trembling all over, and if he knew it, it would mean that the whole magical world knew it.

In order to prevent this from happening, Dumbledore even had a flash of silence.

Well... it's quiet here, secluded from the world, and fully furnished. It's very suitable for Snape, a man with a guilty conscience, to stay there for a long time, ensuring that no one can find him.

On the other side, Snape was still feeling the remaining touch of the sole... He hadn't noticed it just now, but now that he saw Dumbledore clearly, why did he feel so comfortable?

It's like stepping on a stream filled with elixirs and phoenix tears. An indescribable sense of pleasure and satisfaction spreads along the soles of your feet to every corner of your body.

Snape wished he knew some magic that could preserve this feeling forever.

"Severus..."

Dumbledore shouted again, and Snape finally came to his senses. Vaguely, he felt a cold wind blowing past him.

It's really strange. He had closed the door just now, but there was still wind.

"Sorry, the situation is urgent and I can only do this."

Snape said seriously: "That ring contains a very terrible curse. Even a wizard as powerful as you may not be able to prevent the harm it brings."

"I understand, Severus, you want to save me. From this point of view, I must thank you." Dumbledore dusted himself off and walked over.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and didn't mention what happened just now.

At this time, Dumbledore once again laid his eyes on the ring, a trace of pain and struggle flashing through his clear blue eyes.

"So what is this?" Snape couldn't help but ask.

"The Peverell ring," said Dumbledore.

"The Peverell family...the three brothers who got the Deathly Hallows in the story collection?" Snape said subconsciously: "It's just a ring from an ancient family. No matter how famous it is, it shouldn't make you so embarrassed. …”

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and looked at the ring in disbelief.

"It seems you have guessed it." Dumbledore said calmly, "This should be the legendary Deathly Hallows, the Resurrection Stone that can bring people back to life."

For a moment, Snape's breathing also became heavier, and his hand unconsciously stretched out, as if he wanted to grab the ring.

Dumbledore's legs moved a little under his robes, but in the end they didn't stick out.

He just waved his magic wand, and the ring on the table disappeared instantly.

Snape's hand stopped in mid-air and he almost growled: "Where did you do it!"

"Remember what you just said?" Dumbledore said calmly, "There is a curse on it, and it was specially used by Tom to protect the Horcrux."

"I don't care." Snape roared: "The curse is only once, let me take it, and you don't have to worry about it anymore. Isn't that good?"

"I know what you're thinking, but Lily is already dead, and the Resurrection Stone can't really resurrect her."

"Besides, have you ever thought about Connor?" Dumbledore glanced at him calmly, "I remember that child will soon take the assessment of the Association of Extraordinary Pharmacists."

After a moment, Snape's voice gradually calmed down.

"Maybe she doesn't need me and can live a good life."

"I believe it." Dumbledore said with a smile, "Kyle is a very good boy, and they are together..."

"Shut up!" Snape growled again, forcibly interrupting Dumbledore's words.

For some reason, he suddenly didn't want to touch the cursed stone.

"You should try to accept this, Severus." Dumbledore advised earnestly: "They are really a good match, and I must remind you that it is useless even if you object. You should know this a little."

"If you mention this again, I will publish the story of you lying on the ground in the Daily Prophet." Snape said coldly.

At this time, Dumbledore also closed his mouth, and Gaunt's old house suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

I don't know how long it took before Snape took the lead to break the silence.

"Okay...how did you wake yourself up." He asked: "I noticed that your hand paused at the critical moment. If it hadn't been like this, I wouldn't have been able to get there."

"This is the most amazing place." Dumbledore stretched out his arm and looked at the blood stains that had not faded away, his eyes gradually becoming complicated.

"I never thought that the original agreement would allow me to escape."

"What on earth is this?" Snape couldn't help asking. He always thought those injuries were caused by a curse.

"Magic Contract." Dumbledore explained: "It will restrict me from the idea of ​​using Horcruxes. It is because of this restriction that I cannot access the Resurrection Stone, because it is also Tom's Horcrux."

"Have you known for a long time that the Dark Lord would make the Resurrection Stone into a Horcrux?" Snape frowned and said, "Is this the backup plan you left for yourself before coming here?"

"No, I don't know." Dumbledore shook his head, "And this magical contract existed a year ago. If it weren't for what happened today, I would have almost forgotten its existence."

"A year ago?" Snape was even more confused.

Who would make a magical contract for themselves when they have nothing to do... Dumbledore doesn't look like a brainless idiot.

"It's Kyle..." Dumbledore said suddenly: "The other half of the contract is with him, including this contract, which he proposed first."

"Wait, what does this have to do with him?" Snape didn't expect to hear that annoying name here, and asked doubtfully: "But didn't you just say that this contract works on Horcruxes?"

"Kyle has a Horcrux in his hand." Dumbledore said calmly. "It is said that Slytherin's locket is in his hand."

Snape blinked and spent ten seconds trying to understand what Dumbledore meant.

Ten seconds later...

"How dare you hand over something as dangerous as a Horcrux to a student!" Veins popped out on Snape's neck, and his voice was so loud that it shook the dust off the ceiling.

"What if there is a curse on it... What if someone accidentally touches it? What on earth are you thinking!"

Judging from Snape's appearance, he even wanted to go up and give Dumbledore another kick.

"Don't worry, Severus, don't be nervous." Dumbledore said quickly: "I have already checked. There is no curse on the Horcrux or any other bad magic. It will not threaten Connor. Yes, I promise."

Dumbledore grasped the point keenly.

"It's best this way." After hearing that Connor would not be involved, Snape finally calmed down a little. As for what would happen if Kyle held the Horcrux...who cares.

"So you originally wanted to use this magical contract to bind Kyle, right?" Snape sneered, "How interesting, I didn't expect it to save your life in the end."

"It's indeed interesting." Dumbledore said, "But I must say that this is Kyle's own intention. I have never thought of using magic to restrain him."

"You mean, he already knew that the Resurrection Stone would be made into a Horcrux?" Snape's voice rose slightly.

"I guess I don't know..." Dumbledore glanced at his arm again and said softly, but no one knew what he was thinking.

After getting the ring, the two left Gaunt's old house. Dumbledore waved his magic wand, and the vines that had been separated before climbed back onto the house.

Then the trees closed up, hiding the old Gaunt house again, and it looked no different from before.

"What are you going to do with the Resurrection Stone?" Snape asked.

"It must be destroyed," Dumbledore said.

There is no doubt that the Horcrux cannot be kept, but he did not mention how to do it or when to destroy the Resurrection Stone.

Fierce fire is the simplest way, but neither Dumbledore nor Snape seems to have forgotten this magic, and no one mentioned it.

"I have some other things to do." Dumbledore looked up at the thick clouds in the sky and asked, "Are you going to continue to follow me, or go back to Hogwarts."

"Where are you going?"

"Maybe, let's go to Devon first." Dumbledore said.

"I have classes in the afternoon." Snape glanced at him, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he changed his mind and said instead: "Don't touch that curse, or you will be dead."

"Ah, I know." Dumbledore said calmly: "And even if I want to do this, there is no way. I alone cannot lift the restrictions of the magic contract."

Snape said nothing.

A gust of wind blew by, and the hedges on both sides swayed with the wind, falling a few leaves, and the two figures disappeared from the dirt road.

Snape came to Hogsmeade by apparating. He didn't stop, quickly returned to the school, and then pulled Kyle out of the greenhouse.

"Professor, what are you doing..." Kyle muttered: "The exam is coming soon, and poisonous tentacles are a very important subject."

Snape didn't care so much, and went to a place far away from the greenhouse before asking coldly: "Where is Slytherin's locket? Hand it over!"

"What?" Kyle blinked.

"Don't act stupid." Snape narrowed his eyes, "I know you have that thing in your hand, now give it to me.

"As Head of Slytherin, I have the right to keep what Mr. Salazar left behind."

Kyle turned his head and whispered: "Then you should go find Professor Dumbledore..."

"Are you trying to say that you gave that thing to the principal?" Snape sneered, "Coincidentally, he was the one who told me that the locket was with you."

Kyle stopped talking. He didn't expect Dumbledore to be such a big mouth and talk about everything. That was Slytherin's locket. How could he tell Snape... This is different from carrying a piece of steak. What's the difference between going to Yaya.

"Hurry up and hand it over." Snape held out his hand.

"Sorry, Professor..." Kyle said calmly: "It's not that I don't want to part with it, but I really don't have the locket here. I gave it away."

"Give it away?" Snape seemed to have thought of something, and his voice suddenly became sharp, "Damn it, don't you know how dangerous that thing is!"

"I gave it away because I knew it," Kyle said. "After all, in the magical world, only Nicolémeil can solve the problem of the locket without destroying it."

"Nicholas Flamel?" Snape was slightly startled and said subconsciously: "So you didn't give the locket to..."

At this point, he suddenly closed his mouth.

"Ah, to whom?" Kyle asked.

"Shut up, five points from Hufflepuff," Snape said.

However, after learning that the Horcrux was not in the school, he breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the castle, leaving only Kyle behind.

He couldn't help but glance at a window at the highest point of the castle...Dumbledore was back? Or did Snape go find him?

Also, judging from Snape's tone just now, it seemed that he had already seen Horcruxes.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the only Horcrux that has not been found yet is the Resurrection Stone.

The main reason is that he really doesn't know where the thing is. Whether it is in the Hogwarts library or the private collection of Sirius's family, there is no record of Gaunt's old house.

He even asked Dumbledore in a roundabout way, but the other party didn't seem to know.

Kyle frowned.

When Dumbledore left school this time, could it be that he was looking for that stone?

And that Bob Ogden...seems to be a key figure as well.

Kyle glanced at his arm... He didn't know if the magic contract he had made before was useful. It should be of some help...

It's a pity that Dumbledore hasn't come back yet.

Kyle shook his head, didn't think about it anymore, and prepared to go back to the greenhouse to continue the class.

But Snape suddenly mentioned Slytherin's locket today, which made him subconsciously think of Ravenclaw's diadem.

Since he last returned to Hogwarts from Nicolas Flamel, this magical crown, the only Horcrux that has been repaired so far, and which also contains part of Ravenclaw's consciousness, has disappeared.

Also missing was the ghost Lady Grey, Helena Ravenclaw.

They seemed to have hid in a corner of the castle, spending time together in a long-lost world. After all, mother and daughter had not seen each other for more than a thousand years, so naturally they had a lot to say.

Kyle also tried to find them, but to no avail.

Before, Ms. Gray's name, like other ghosts, would appear on the Marauder's Map, but now she has disappeared.

Kyle also wondered if they were hiding in the Room of Requirement, but when Harry and the others had a DA party, the Room of Requirement was still in normal use.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are more hidden rooms there. After all, even the Room of Requirement was created by Ravenclaw, so it would be too easy for her to leave a back door for herself.

If that was the case, Kyle would naturally not be able to find them.

When Kyle returned to the greenhouse, Professor Sprout was instructing everyone to put on dragon skin gloves.

"Poisonous tentacles are a very dangerous plant. Although what we see is only a seedling, it will not be fatal if it is stung, but it is enough to make you lie in the school hospital for a month... If you miss the exam by then, Don’t blame me for not warning you.”

This is also the reason why Poisonous Tentacle is placed in the sixth grade, because there are no particularly important exams in the sixth grade, so even if you miss it, it won't be a big problem.

Kyle opened the door and returned to his original position after receiving Professor Sprout's consent.

Connor next to her asked curiously: "What does Professor Snape want from you?"

Mikel and Ryan also looked over.

Snape had just barged in aggressively, startling them, and some even speculated that Kyle blew up his private storage room and was discovered by him to settle the score.

"Nothing." Kyle shook his head, "He wanted to ask me for Slytherin's locket."

"Slytherin's snuff bottle?" Mikel blinked, "What is that?"

"Idiot, it's a locket!" Ryan corrected: "It's something left by the legendary Big Four. Each college has one. Gryffindor's is an indestructible sword, and Ravenclaw's is The crown that brings wisdom to people, as for us Hufflepuffs, is a golden cup.

"But these things have been lost for centuries, and no one has actually seen them."

"That's cool..." Mikel's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Kyle doubtfully and asked, "But if that's the case, why would he come to you to ask for it?"

"Who knows..." Kyle put on his dragon leather gloves and shrugged, "Maybe someone told him something."

"That person must want to frame you." Mikel said angrily, "It's really bad."

"Yes, I think so too." Kyle nodded in agreement.
