Schelling left the Ravenclaw chamber and returned to the Slytherin common room after a long absence.
It just so happened that my friends were all here, discussing the events of the past two weeks.
"Hi, everyone," Sherlin greeted and casually sat in the seat between Daphne and Meredith, "Has anything happened recently?"
Draco smiled and said, "What else can happen? Ever since the Dingo incident, the Gryffindor brats have all stopped and dared not come out to play. I heard that Potter seems to have lost something." The incredible item hit him hard. I wonder if it was something left to him by his Muggle relatives..."
Xie Lin naturally knew what he was referring to, and the invisibility cloak was in his hand. He smiled and said nothing, then turned to look at Blaise, "Brace, how is your mother doing? Do you still plan to pursue Hagrid?"
When Brace heard this, he frowned, "Mom said let's just forget about it... This is very strange... It's very unlike my mother's character..."
Draco interrupted: "That's right! Now the students also know that Lupin is actually a werewolf! In my opinion, if we can take this opportunity to kick the old man with the white beard away from Hogwarts, then Perfect!”
Xie Lin shook his head, "Brother, you think about things too simply. The school board is almost all Dumbledore's people, and Fudge needs to rely on Dumbledore in many places now, and he won't agree to it, but - —”
He sneered, "This is just the beginning. Because of Dumbledore's hiring of werewolves, Fudge has been questioned and criticized by the public. The relationship between him and Dumbledore has already cracked. I dare say that given Fudge a few more years, he will Just dare to fall out with Dumbledore."
"Where have you been recently? I feel like you've changed a lot recently." Pansy didn't care about these things and looked at Xie Lin up and down.
"Huh? What change? I'm just the same as before, sitting in the dormitory and reading." Xie Lin said with a nonchalant smile.
"No, no, that's definitely not the reason. I feel you are more confident and more handsome." Audrey Runcorn said with her chin on her hands and staring at Xie Lin.
Daphne and Meredith snorted at the same time, and moved closer to Xuelin, as if they couldn't wait to squeeze their delicate bodies into Xuelin's body.
Xie Lingan smiled and said: "You are overthinking it. I just stayed at home for two weeks. What changes can be made?"
Xie Lin suddenly realized that after receiving the Ravenclaw inheritance, his magic level had not changed on the surface, but his knowledge level had far surpassed most wizards in the wizarding world, and he had mastered many inexplicable skills in his hands. The secrets of his well-known skills and his trump card gave him confidence.
Even Voldemort and Dumbledore probably only have this amount of knowledge. Maybe Schelling is a little inferior due to his age, but he is no longer something he can only look up to!
What changed next was his mentality. Yes, he no longer regarded himself as an ordinary student, but took a solid step towards the road of becoming a strong man. He already had the consciousness of being a strong man. The confidence of the strong!
This confidence is directly reflected in his temperament, like a sharp blade that has just begun to show its edge!
At this time, Nott, who had been silent all this time, spoke up: "Xie Lin, my father said that he wants to establish exchanges with you in alchemy and even establish a cooperative relationship in business. What do you think?"
The Nott family and the Burke family are the two major alchemy families in the UK, and they have a very deep foundation in alchemy. However, when Sherrin was attacked by Gemma Farley, the Nott family chose to side with the Lestrange family, so the relationship with the Malfoy family was somewhat awkward.
Theodore Nott was born in a single-parent family. His mother passed away when he was very young, leaving him and his elderly father to depend on each other. This created his quiet, low-key, unsociable character. His father Nott Sr. was one of Voldemort's first followers. He was more than ten years older than Lucius (Lucius was born in 1953, and Nott had joined the Death Eaters in 1965).
(Note: Theodore Nott’s family background is official and comes from Rowling’s manuscript)
(Note: Voldemort’s first followers were Antonin Dolohov, old Mulciber, old Rochiel, and old Nott; old Nott and Antonin are the only two remaining)
The Nott family and the Malfoy family have never had any grievances, and they have a lot of business dealings. The reason why he stood against the Lestrange family before was purely because the old Nott did not want to see the Malfoy family grow bigger.
I thought it was a good move, but I didn't expect that less than a month had passed, and various news came one after another - Schelling became the youth representative of the Medieval European Wizards' Federation, and the Merlin Jazz Order announced that it would be awarded the third level. Medal, rumors that the Ministry of Magic was even wooing him to join the Wizengamot, gaining the power to influence the hiring of teachers at Hogwarts, and even Lucius returned to the power class of Hogwarts, and invented the well-known anti-sickness bracelet. , I heard from my son that I also learned the technology of disappearing cabinet under the care of Professor Bock...
After Voldemort lost power, Old Nott was able to escape safely like the Malfoy family, the Avery family, and the Carrow family. He was obviously not a stupid person. Yes, he plans to change sides and change sides.
It was already dusk in Lestrange. Although the Selwyn family and the Rowle family were not weak, they obviously could not match the majesty and sharpness of Malfoy at the moment! There is no need to hesitate about which choice to make. Fortunately for him, his son seemed to get along well with the Malfoy twins at school, which gave him a breakthrough.
Old Nott's attitude did not surprise Schelling. In fact, Old Nott's thoughts were clear to Schelling.
Xie Lin said calmly: "Theo (Theodore's nickname), considering our friendship, there is no problem in communication and cooperation, but should we show some sincerity?" Xie Lin did not mind accepting the Nott family as an ally. , after all, what is the background of the Nott family? The secret alchemy passed down by their family might be useful to Schelling.
But if you want to wipe out the past with just one sentence, of course it won't be so cheap.
(Note: Friends generally like to be called by nicknames. For example, in the Weasley family, Ronald is called Ron, Ginevra is called Ginny, Charles is called Charlie, and William is called Bill. Fan fiction If someone with the title William appears here, he must not understand British culture)
Nott was already prepared. He took out a simple black chisel and a white jade gourd with a fine jade color from his pocket.
"This is what my father asked me to pass on to you. He said that you will be satisfied - this chisel is made of black dragon spar. The blood of the Hebdi Black Dragon has been poured on it for many years through special means. It has been for 30 years. The work that was completed only in 2008 has put a lot of effort into my family. It is said that using this chisel to carve the Guruni magic talisman can get twice the result with half the effort, and it will definitely be even more powerful for your alchemy."
"This white jade gourd was purchased by my grandfather from traveling merchants in the Far East. It is actually a sealing device that can seal a magical animal inside. This is not just a simple space magic -"
"The white jade gourd is also engraved with magic conversion magic. People who hold the white jade gourd can use the gourd to use the abilities of magical animals. Suppose you seal a fire dragon inside, then you can spray dragon breath from the mouth of the gourd at any time; assuming the seal It is an invisible beast, so it can make itself invisible... It should be noted that once a magical animal is sealed, it cannot be released. If you want to replace the magical animal inside, you must first kill the original sealed beast by chanting a spell. You can catch new magical animals.”
Wow! It did sound like a good thing. Xie Lin was very satisfied and naturally rejected it. So, under the envious eyes of everyone, Xie Lin accepted two gifts.
[Get the Black Dragon Chisel! Obtain the white jade gourd! 】
["Allies" Knott family obtained! 】
Daphne, Meredith, and Pansy were okay. The three girls had a close relationship with the Malfoy twins. The remaining little snakes, such as Millicent Burst, Tracy Davis, and Odd Leigh Runcorn couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression on Nott's behavior.
Millicent was born in the Holy 28 pure-blood family, but his family's power ranks at the bottom. Coupled with Millicon's appearance and figure - well, how should I put it? It is only suitable for professional tank drivers, so the contact with Schelling of the Appearance Association in the past three semesters has been extremely rare.
Tracy is from a mixed-race family. She has always been Pansy's little follower in Slytherin, and her presence has never been high. She looked pretty good, but for the past three semesters, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break through Daphne and Meredith's tight defense around Shailene.
The Runcorn family that Audrey was born into is not a small family. Although the historical background is not enough to be included in the sacred 28 pure-blood families, the current head of the family, Audrey's father-Albert Runcorn Eun is a very capable person in the Ministry of Magic.
In the original book, after the magical tribe came under the control of Voldemort, he was one of the fastest risers. When Harry used polyjuice potion to impersonate him, all colleagues in the Ministry of Magic were afraid of him, even the Death Eater Cobain Arx Both Leigh and the puppet minister Pius Thicknesse maintained their respect for him in their words, which was rare among non-Death Eaters, which shows the extent of his power.
Of course, Xie Lin didn't know what they were thinking, and he didn't care at all. He just wanted to go back to the dormitory and take a nap.
Back in the dormitory, Xie Lin had a good sleep. He hadn't closed his eyes for two weeks...
The next day, there are only two days until summer vacation.
Schelling began to pack his luggage. The Ravenclaw books must be taken away, and he planned to finish the remaining unread parts during the summer vacation. In addition, he also had to sort out and take away the black magic books harvested from the Black family secret room.
While looking through these black magic books, Schelling received a big surprise. He actually found "The Secret of Advanced Black Magic" written by Egbert the Egregious!
(Note: There is no official author for "Advanced Black Magic Revealed". This setting is made up by the author)
This book can be said to be the beginning of Voldemort's creation of Horcruxes. It is said that there are only three copies of this book in the world, and there are restrictions on it that cannot be copied or copied. One of them was originally stored in the restricted book section of the Hogwarts library. Later, due to Voldemort's accident, it was hidden by Dumbledore in the principal's office. Unexpectedly, the Black family also had a copy.
Sherrin couldn't help but think that perhaps Sirius's younger brother Regulus Black relied on this book to deduce Voldemort's biggest secret.
["Secrets of Advanced Black Magic" Obtained! 】
The book "Advanced Black Magic Revealed" records many extremely evil taboo black magics. Horcruxes are just one of them, and they may not even be the most evil.
The first black magic introduced is the Horcrux. At the top of the page is a portrait of a figure with a ferocious and twisted face. His soul is being separated. He seems to be suffering great pain, but there is a cruel look on the corner of his mouth. smile. The book introduces the origin, principles and production methods of Horcruxes, etc. It also has many test records and what needs to be paid attention to at every step.
The first step in making a Horcrux is to split the soul, splitting the soul by killing. Then, through a series of very complicated steps, the split soul is separated from the main soul.
According to the notes at the bottom of the book, Schelling learned that although killing is the easiest way to split the soul, it does not mean that the soul can be split once by committing a murder. The power required to split the soul is very powerful, and this power comes from evil and cruel things. The key is not killing, but whether it is evil enough.
This is why Voldemort can make so many Horcruxes, but Snape did not split the soul when he killed Dumbledore. At that time, Dumbledore had very little life left. Snape's act of killing Dumbledore was not considered murder at all, but more like helping the latter to escape.
