The Fate of Harry Potter

Chapter 396 Another Horcrux

Dumbledore's words made Nydia stunned for a moment, and after she recovered, she quickly followed Dumbledore's footsteps.

"What does it mean that he didn't grow up here? It's neither his father's residence nor his mother's residence. He can't be alone..." Nydia's words stopped abruptly, and she probably guessed something about the situation.

.

"The first time I saw him was in a Muggle orphanage." Dumbledore answered Nydia's words, reached out and pushed open the door of the house and walked in.

"Orphanage!" Although it has been guessed, it is still a little hard to accept when it is actually confirmed. "Why is he in the orphanage? Have his parents abandoned him?"

"We can only rely on speculation to restore the truth of the matter, but Nydia, we are very pressed for time now. It would be more appropriate for us to leave this topic to be discussed next time." Dumbledore waved his wand, and the top of the wand gathered.

A ball of light brought a glimmer of light to the dark room.

"...I'm sorry, Professor!" Although she wanted to continue asking, Nidia retracted her thoughts and lit her wand at the same time.

"Control the light of your wand. Sudden movement in a house that has been deserted for a long time is very noticeable." Dumbledore reminded.

Nydia waved her wand again, and the light emitted by the wand dimmed a bit, "What are we looking for?"

"It's a pity that I'm not sure yet what we are looking for. The Horcrux could be any object, but the object must be protected." Dumbledore walked deeper into the house.

.

Nitya looked around. It was hard for her to imagine that such a house had ever been inhabited by people. Compared with this place, the Screaming Shack was not that good. Calling it a house was really too reluctant.

A wooden shed might be more appropriate. Would Voldemort really hide the Horcruxes that are so important to him here? Nydia looked around and saw that not a single piece of furniture here was intact. It was already difficult to hide them anymore.

What happened, so Nidia directly chose to look for possible hidden spaces in the walls and floors.

Fortunately, the house was not that big, and it didn't take long for Nidia to discover a hidden space on the floor under the bed in one of the bedrooms.

"The sound of this wooden board being knocked is different, but it seems to have cast a protective spell. I can't find a way to open it." Nydia, who was at a loss what to do, summoned Dumbledore.

"It's very well done." Dumbledore touched the floor lightly with his hand, "It is indeed a quite exquisite spell, but..."

Dumbledore waved his wand against the floor, and the air around the floor made a sound of bubbles collapsing. Immediately, a wooden board bounced up, and a silver square appeared under the board that was extremely inconsistent with the room.

The box, with exquisite serpentine patterns carved around it, Dumbledore picked up the box and looked at it for a moment.

"It seems we need your help to really get it." Dumbledore handed the box to Nydia.

Nidia was a little confused, but after carefully examining the box, she immediately understood. There was no gap that could be opened around the box, and all the places where the gap should have been were surrounded by a long silver snake.

"Open..." Nydia said to the box in the language of snakes as she did when opening the secret room.

Sure enough, after Nydia recited the snake language, the long silver snake on the box began to twist, and the original gap in the box was exposed. Dumbledore stretched out his hand to open the box, revealing a large black gem inlaid with the shape of

An unsightly gold ring appeared.

"Is this Voldemort's Horcrux..." Nydia became a little nervous looking at the ring. She couldn't tell whether she hoped more that this was Voldemort's Horcrux or that they had made a mistake.

Dumbledore picked up the ring, "This evil aura, this is a Horcrux... Judging from the style, it seems to be an item that originally belonged to Slytherin. This gem..."

Dumbledore's words suddenly stopped. He looked at the ring in surprise for a long time without saying a word. From his eyes, Nydia saw for the first time something that had never appeared in Dumbledore before.

Emotions are desires.

"Professor!" Nydia tentatively called Dumbledore, who was looking at the ring in a daze. She didn't know if there was some spell on the ring that made Dumbledore suddenly lose his mind.

"Yes!" Dumbledore came back to his senses, looking a little panicked.

"What should we do with this ring? Now that it has been confirmed that it is Voldemort's Horcrux!" Nydia asked. "Should we destroy it?"

"Don't worry, I will take care of it." After saying that, Dumbledore put the ring into his pocket, then waved his wand, and the empty box flew back to the secret compartment under the floor, and the wooden board that popped out also reappeared.

After installing it back, everything was restored to its original state. "Now we have to leave quickly, you'd better hold on to my arm."

Nydia grabbed Dumbledore's arm, and immediately apparated, and the uncomfortable feeling of being squeezed came from all around. Fortunately, it didn't last long, otherwise Nydia would have vomited it out.

"This is... Hogsmeade!" After seeing what was in front of her clearly, Nydia was surprised to find that she was now standing near the Shrieking Shack.

"I think it would be safer for you to go back to school through the Whomping Willow passage," Dumbledore said.

"But that Horcrux..." Nidia was still full of questions about the newly found Horcrux.

"A Horcrux is different from ordinary items. It has the soul of the caster attached to it, so it is not that easy to destroy it. I don't have a completely accurate method yet, but it doesn't matter, since we have

Once you find it, you will definitely be able to find a way to destroy it," Dumbledore said.

"Can you now determine the number of Voldemort's Horcruxes?" Nydia asked.

"There are some speculations, but they cannot be confirmed yet. I need to visit some old friends again, and I should be able to get some definite information from them." Dumbledore's eyes became solemn, and it seemed that the visit he mentioned was not accurate.

It's not an easy thing. "Now, it's time for you to go back to school."

"What about you? Are you going to continue looking for clues about the Horcruxes again?" Nydia asked.

"Some things must be clarified before Voldemort's power is completely restored, but since we have arrived at Hogsmeade, maybe we can go to the Pig's Head Bar for a drink first..." Dumbledore looked towards the direction of the village.

Go, hand unconsciously touched the position of his pocket.

Nydia nodded, said goodbye to Dumbledore, then turned and walked towards the Shrieking Shack. If she was fast enough, she should be able to return to the school before lights out. They found another Voldemort's soul tonight.

Although it is not yet certain how many Horcruxes are left, this is already a good progress. Logically speaking, Nydia should be excited and happy about this, but in fact she has no idea at this moment.

How much joy.
