Hogwarts: The Cat Wizard of the Moving Castle

Chapter 228 The Potion of Suffering

"Pure corpse?" Dumbledore's gaze was downwards, like an old man looking at something aimlessly.

"The Inferi." After a moment, he murmured the answer: "There's something wrong with their appearance."

"Do you know him?" Mu En looked away and clenched his fist from bottom to top.

Crash--

Immediately, a thick green copper chain suddenly emerged from the lake.

The chain was held in the air by Mu En, and then he pulled back with his big hand. With a clanging echo, a small boat emerged from the lake like a ghost.

Then it floated quietly towards the two of them, making tiny ripples on the lake.

Maybe it was Dumbledore who just remembered, or maybe he was waiting for the noisy clinking of chains to dissipate.

It wasn't until the boat reached the shore that he slowly spoke: "It's the people from the orphanage and the village on the other side of the cliff that I just mentioned."

Mu En nodded clearly. Sure enough, just like extracting the souls of his flesh and blood relatives and placing them in Gunter's old house, the corpses here also have something to do with Voldemort.

That "sense of ritual" that only belongs to him and devoid of human nature.

"There is no trace of the formation." Mu En's eyes fell to the bottom of the lake again.

"It's just a pile of Inferi." Dumbledore saw the origin of these corpses and looked calmly.

"It's indeed low-level." Mu En said lightly, with a rare expression of contempt on the table.

Dumbledore smiled. Although this method was not clever, but it was low-level and just happened to hit Jones, a "scene person".

Quantity has little effect in front of him.

Then, Dumbledore stepped onto the boat: "The quantity is wrong. This boat is testing the magnitude of magic power. Taking his own unit as a unit, it may be called a 'one volt'."

It seems that this is a 'fallback route' he set up for himself in case he needs to visit or take away his Horcrux one day in the future.

In other words, only one of you and me can pass here with this boat. "

"If the magic level is not enough for Xiaozhou's detection threshold, can it pass multiple people?" Mu En turned his attention to Xiaozhou.

"Indeed." Dumbledore nodded: "It seems that he doesn't think that if multiple people arrive in the middle of the lake through the boat, they can continue to pose a threat to his backhand!!"

He knew Riddle well enough to make these inferences without any doubt or a tone of uncertainty.

"Generally speaking, being arrogant, timid, and powerful, one person can only occupy two Riddles always surprises me."

"It seems that you want to break through directly with force?" Dumbledore looked at Moon and thought of his method of punching the stone wall just now without any explanation.

Mu En glanced at him, and then looked at the bottom of the water.

The next moment, his skin gradually became swollen and white, the skin ulcerated, and the layers of muscles were exposed to the air.

Then, he slowly walked toward the water.

A big white guy suddenly jumped up from the dark lake twenty feet away and jumped in front of him.

Then, the swollen nose kept sniffing towards Mu En, like a wild beast.

"Get lost." Mu En said lightly. The Yin Corpse didn't understand what he meant, but it didn't attack him.

However, it really didn't move.

Maybe he can't understand human speech.

The next moment, his body suddenly flew upside down and fell into the water.

Mu En shook his hand, as if he disliked the mucus on the skin of the Inferi. However, this move seemed a bit funny when half of his body was in the "corpse lake".

"Let's go." Mu En said calmly.

Dumbledore looked at Moon's actions. He didn't understand why Moon would choose this method.

He took a deep breath, then steered the boat and gradually walked towards the center of the lake.

Mu En's body gradually disappeared into the lake.

At the bottom of the dark lake, a huge number of corpses were piled up into a hill. One after another, the white-soaked corpses were paddling in front of him, smelling his scent curiously, and their white-filmed pupils looked at him. Examine.

Blue-purple flames bloomed from Mu En's body, burning under the water, bringing up Gululu's bubbles, and the Inferi instinctively dispersed to make way for him.

Among these corpses were old women wearing long linen skirts from the previous era, peasant women who looked very honest and honest, and farm men with lean figures.

There are also people wearing nun's robes and they seem to be wizards.

There are even children, babies.

"Guys who only dare to extend their claws to the weak are really unpleasant."

"Even a bastard like me can smell the 'evil' here!"

Soon, a burst of green light appeared on the lake. As it got closer, the green light became more and more dazzling, and Mu En even saw the shadow of the boat.

Above the lake, Dumbledore looked at the green light quietly, while feeling the surrounding environment with magic threads.

Not long after, the boat docked.

Crash--

Mu En's body came out of the water, followed by white mist that suddenly evaporated.

"What's going on?"

"Aside from one corpse after another, the only problem now is that I want to go back and take a shower." Mu En said, raising his hand to disperse the lingering white mist. After the white mist dissipated, all the skin and hair on his body had grown back.

Then he looked around. There was a small island here, which seemed to be about the same size as his office. It was a large flat black stone slab with nothing on it except for the light source emitting green light in the center.

The two of them took a closer look, and the light source became brighter. As they gradually approached, they could clearly see that it was a stone basin like a goblet.

In the center of the stone basin was the glowing green thing. It was a basin of liquid that seemed to be filled with some kind of algae, glowing around it.

"Is this his back-up plan?"

"It looks tougher than blood and the Inferi." Dumbledore said, already reaching out with his hand.

Then, it stopped in mid-air.

"I can't stretch my hand any further." Dumbledore said, "Do you want to try?"

In fact, both of them could see that there was a force field outside the stone basin.

Dumbledore reached out because he wanted to test it.

And the reason for asking——

Mu En raised her hand high, put her five fingers together, and suddenly stabbed towards the stone basin.

boom--

The sudden huge force was transmitted to the entire cave, like a small earthquake, and fine rocks fell from the top of the cave and hit the lake.

At the same time, the Inferi below seemed to be disturbed, emerging from the water one after another and roaring.

"Quiet!"

A ring of fire exploded around Dumbledore and spread along the lake.

The Inferi sank quickly again.

"The same method as before." Mu En retracted her hand with some fear.

"Your expression just now."

"Fortunately, I didn't break my nails." Mu En rubbed her fingers: "That would hurt."

Dumbledore didn't understand why Moon felt this was painful. After all, he had seen Moon's entire body with only a skeleton left.

Maybe it's psychological pain? Like hitting the corner with your pinky finger?

He retracted these random thoughts and kept observing the liquid in the stone basin with his blue eyes that turned green against the liquid.

"Like Severus' handwriting." Mu En recalled the test the old bat had left in the underground classroom in the first grade.

"Potion?" Dumbledore nodded: "Maybe it's the only explanation."

"I felt a lot of magic, which made it impossible for my hand to reach in and take out the things it protected. At the same time, I couldn't scoop it up or drain it. I could only use the simplest physical methods to make it disappear."

Mu En flipped his hand, and a cup appeared in his hand.

Then he held the cup and looked towards the green liquid.

This time, there was no obstruction, but when the cup entered it, another resistance appeared under the liquid.

Then the green liquid poured into the cup, filling it up in the blink of an eye.

"It seems like I can't reach down through the cup." Mu En took the cup and took back her hand.

"My personal suggestion is to destroy this cave directly."

"Where are those Inferi?" Dumbledore asked, "They don't have a good place to resettle for the time being."

Mu En was silent for a moment and looked at the liquid in her hand.

"Useless weakness." He cursed unconvincingly, and then drank the contents of the cup in one gulp.

After a while, he put down the cup and clicked his tongue.

"In general, I didn't feel anything. It's still a little sweet. Is there really some unknown magical algae in it? This is a niche field."

As he said that, he put down the cup, looked back at himself, and suddenly became confused.

"There's really no problem."

Dumbledore became confused, the two fingers of his left hand kept colliding, and he fell into thinking.

"No, logically speaking, this potion must be used to prevent outsiders from obtaining Horcruxes. It will most likely paralyze people and make them forget the purpose of falling here.

It may even cause severe pain in a compound form.”

Dumbledore absently raised his wand and turned it in his hand. With a flip, the wand turned into a crystal goblet.

Then he also brought the cup close to the stone basin, scooped up a cup of green liquid and put it into his mouth.

Suddenly, green liquid poured into his stomach, and it seemed to start to burn. An extremely severe pain rushed into his mind, and even he couldn't bear it.

It's like a hundred times more mustard, chili, and fire.

It seems that this mouthful has approached the threshold of human reason.

"Mo En." Dumbledore understood immediately and looked around, only to see that Moon had disappeared, leaving only the ripples on the lakeside.

Dumbledore's expression suddenly became bitter, and then he had no choice but to turn his gaze to the basin.

Scoop another cup.

Under the lake, Mu En then grabbed a Yin corpse, his fingers flashed with light, and he suddenly pointed towards the opponent's eyebrows.

Then, consciousness sank in.

The stench was an overwhelming stench, just like a piece of stinky meat that had been exposed to the sun for three days and three nights, then soaked in water for three days and three nights, and then fermented endlessly in a closed, warm space.

"I'll kill them." An irrational roar appeared in his soul.

"Kill me"

"God, please, grant me death."

Then, the owner of the voice seemed to have discovered Mu En, an outsider. From the dark place of the soul, a red-necked peasant man came out.

"Who are you."

"It's not Jehovah anyway." Mu En responded emotionlessly.

"Kill me, kill me, and you will be my LORD."

"Kill--"

"Shut up." Mu En couldn't stand his noise anymore: "Killing you won't solve the problem."

"Can't rest in peace, do you understand? You are all trapped in the Iron Lady and being tortured. Physical destruction is of no use at all." Mu En explained.

"Iron Lady kill me"

Mu En withdrew from his soul and shook his head helplessly.

He is not a pastor, does not believe in God, and does not know how to pray for salvation.

"Trouble." Mu En twirled his beard: "How do you open this iron lady?"

Restoring the Inferi, my dear, was another subject that he had not studied in all the Hogwarts libraries.

That’s why I say this is useless weakness.

Just as he was thinking about it, a conspicuous red light suddenly rose above the lake.

"Fortunately, the price of this weakness is not borne by me." Mu En thought for a while and rubbed his belly.

The bite just now was not a pleasant one, and his face almost twitched in order to maintain his calm look.

Then, he walked out of the lake. In the middle of the island, Dumbledore was half kneeling on the ground, holding the edge of the stone basin with one hand, and holding the cup against the stone basin with one hand.

It seems that only in this way, he will not fall down.

"Moon, come here quickly." Dumbledore roared, but his voice was extremely small, as if this was his limit.

"I don't want to, don't force me," Dumbledore gasped. When Moon approached, his cup suddenly fell out of his hands, and was then grabbed by Moon.

"Force me" Dumbledore seemed to say these words with the last of his rationality.

Mu En scooped up a spoonful of green water and then tentatively put it into his mouth.

The next moment, the green water in the stone basin began to boil, gurgling as if it was about to rise.

Helpless, he could only send the green water to Dumbledore.

"I don't like it. Don't force me." Dumbledore's words were filled with fear.

"Don't force Lai Lai." Mu En said, then looked into the stone basin.

"I drank half of it with my own willpower. It's already very admirable."

With that said, Moon brought the cup to Dumbledore's mouth.

"No I don't want to. Please."

"Drink! Why don't you drink it? It's his grandma's!!" Mu En poured it into him directly.

"Don't let him stop," Dumbledore roared.

"No, don't touch them!" Dumbledore yelled, "Everything is fine, it's all my fault."

Mu En's hands froze in place. Looking at the miserable Dumbledore, he suddenly understood that when the potion he ingested reached a certain level, the so-called pain began to no longer be limited to the physical body.

As cups of potion were gradually poured in, Mu En no longer had any intention of teasing the other party.

Just violently and quietly pouring cup after cup of potion into his mouth.

In the empty cave, there was only Dumbledore's wailing and crying.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault." Dumbledore trembled, twitched and fell to the ground, tears streaming from his eyes: "Please, Moon, let him stop, it's all my fault."

"Albus, that's enough. You've done a good job." Moon poured the last cup of potion into his throat.

“Whether it’s now or ever.

That's enough, old man, really.

You are almost at the age of death, let yourself go. "

"I can't do it..." Dumbledore cried, begging: "Let me go..."

"You are the only one who has not let yourself go." Mu En responded, he probably knew something.

"I can't..." Dumbledore cried again.

The speech is confusing and the gestures are funny.

But Mu En didn't find it funny.
