Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse
Chapter 96 Gaunt’s Old House
Big Hangleton is only a few miles away from Little Hangleton, but the scenery is completely different. If Little Hangleton is still a bit smoky, then Big Hangleton is farther away from the city. It can only be regarded as dilapidated and desolate.
It is said that a few decades ago, there was a family named "Gaunt" living in Great Hangleton, and it was considered one of the richest families in the area. However, now there is only a dilapidated old house left. .
No, it can no longer be called an old house, it should be called a ruin or ruins - that house has been covered by a large area of vigorously growing woods, and can only be half-hidden and half-revealed among the tangled trees. The trees blocked all the light and looked extremely dark; the walls were covered with moss, and most of the tiles on the roof had fallen off, revealing here and there the branches that were about to grow out. There are still dense and tall weeds growing around the house, reaching up to the windows, and the windowsills are also covered with thick old dirt...
To sum it up in one sentence - the living environment of the cavemen is better than this thing.
But in the woods that had not changed for decades, a figure suddenly appeared. He was holding a broomstick in one hand and stuffing it into his pocket. His whole body was also wrapped in a layer of transparent material, as if Bubble-like film...
"So, how did the Gunter family live in a place like this back then? Even without these trees, whether it is the environment or the structure of the house, it doesn't look like it was lived in..."
"Well, luckily I haven't removed the soaking spell yet."
After looking at the rotten wooden boards, the slightest breeze that could blow up three-foot-high dust, and the unknown flying insects flying everywhere, Avada sighed and wondered what the Gaunt family, a descendant of Slytherin, had done back then. What a desolation he had become, and he couldn't help but admire his own wisdom.
Then he got down to business and carefully observed the structure of the room in front of him through his magic senses...
"Well, I know that Voldemort can't do nothing to defend himself, only put a curse on the ring."
Avada shivered as she looked at the densely packed magic structures - there was a variant of the Muggle Expelling Curse on the outermost edge, which could be effective on weaker wizards; there was a poisonous curse on the door of the house; The Traceless Stretching Spell expanded into a maze, filled with all kinds of magic traps and mechanisms, all of which were extremely cruel and left no way to survive...
"Any one of these traps can leave no body behind."
"But it's still the same as that cave. The Apparition ban here can only target humans, and it has no defense against non-human creatures such as phoenixes and house elves, so I can still get there easily..."
"Um?"
Avada felt that what he had been thinking about just now was a bit strange, but the current situation also left him no time to think about what went wrong, so he sent himself into the space mezzanine with a neat spell of So close to the end of the world, and then in A tiny magic hole was seen in the distance among the dense magic structure.
"That's the one……"
He controlled the broomstick and moved it carefully, and after repeatedly confirming that there was no mechanism in the room where the Resurrection Stone was placed, he put away the broom and returned to the normal space, stared at the ordinary ring, and twisted He raised his eyebrows——
The magic structure on the Resurrection Stone is the same as the invisibility cloak. It is as abstract and twisted as the Thestral, but it is messy and seems to have some regularity, but it is hard to tell what this thing is used for...
"Both of the Deathly Hallows look like this."
Avada raised her chin: "Although I haven't observed the Elder Wand carefully, I know that even the core of that wand is made of the tail hair of the Thestral... What is the origin of the Thestral? ? "
"It seems that it is necessary to study the Yeqi carefully in the future... No, now is not the time to think about this."
He subconsciously squinted his eyes, took out a small bottle of intelligence enhancer and took a sip, and with some difficulty deciphered the magic structure on the ring.
The outermost layer is of course the cruel curse that will kill you if you touch it. If Avada is not mistaken, it seems that anyone who touches this thing will have their vitality and mental power instantly destroyed, and they will not even have the chance to become a ghost. No!
But the good news is - this curse is a one-time thing.
"Wait, no, there are trigger conditions... It seems that one must have strong mental strength to a certain level to be qualified to trigger this curse? In other words, this curse is specially reserved to trap and kill strong people? It may even be specially reserved for For Dumbledore?!"
Avada trembled, and finally had a realistic understanding of the methods of Voldemort, who was at his peak in terms of strength and IQ.
"Fortunately, he took the initiative to choose wisdom for a safer immortality..."
He sighed with emotion and continued to observe:
Under the curse is Voldemort's Horcrux magic. The complex and familiar structure wraps a magic hole, which is the fragment of Voldemort's soul. But under the magic of the Horcrux is the real magical structure of the Resurrection Stone itself.
"Luckily, it seems that Voldemort did not have the habit of modifying the magic items themselves when making Horcruxes, but simply attached the Horcruxes to the surface of the items. The same goes for the crown, and the same goes for the Resurrection Stone."
"In this case, the locket and the golden cup should also be spared? Those precious magical artifacts can be considered saved..."
While thinking about it, Avada pulled out her wand and tentatively cast a levitating spell on the Resurrection Stone. And the next second, the ring did what he expected, slowly rising into the air and suspended in the air.
"There's really no resistance to the curse? That'll be easy."
He directly took out a box made of unknown material from his pocket, opened it, controlled the resurrection stone to slowly float in, then fastened the lid of the box and tied it with tape a few times - he had gone to this box specially. It cost him more than thirty galleons to buy it from Jiaoxiang. The original purpose of this box was to store unknown cursed objects unearthed during archeology, and according to the merchant, this box could even be used to seal Li Huo's fire.
I don't know if Li Huo can be sealed. Anyway, the protective structure inside this box is indeed the second most perfect that Avada has ever seen, second only to Professor Baker's black crystal ball.
Moreover, his mental strength is far from enough to trigger the curse on the ring, so even if he puts the ring directly on his hand, there is no problem at all. It's just that he personally feels uncomfortable, and if Dumbledore shakes his hand one day or something...
"Resurrection Stone, done."
Avada used the End of the World Curse to send him out of the dangerous old Gaunt house. He looked at the tightly sealed box in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "The curse is not incomprehensible. It can be worn away bit by bit. If it doesn't work, it won't work." You can also go to Azkaban and find a Death Eater to wear it for him..."
"As for the gold cup, just wait until you go shopping in Diagon Alley to get it. After staying out for four or five days, it's time to go back and spend time with those guys."
"I don't know what the number of the Lestrange family's vault is. I just remember that it is next to the fire dragon. I will have to look for it one by one..."
