Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy Chapter 329: Rock Cave
Under the starry night sky, the gloomy ocean meets the bright moon, exuding a shimmering beauty. The turbulent waves hit the bottom of the steep cliff behind them, giving rise to layers of dense white foam.
The cold night breeze slowly blows from the sea, stroking Wright's hair, and it also brings the vast, salty and humid air that is unique to the sea.
"What do you think?" asked Dumbledore, who was standing next to him, listening to him as if it was not a deserted seaside cliff, but the familiar castle Black Lake. This trip is not to search for Voldemort's Horcrux, but just a more "alternative" walk after dinner.
Yes, the purpose of the two's trip is to search for Horcruxes.
Wright had made such a psychological preparation long ago, and it is precisely because of this that he deliberately went to find Sirius who had slipped into the school in the afternoon, and he also got the Black family from him. Resident address.
If nothing else, the Horcrux that Dumbledore wanted to find this time was Slytherin's locket. Of course, it was a fake Slytherin locket. The real locket had been found by RAB long ago and handed over to his heartfelt servant, Kreacher, the house elf of the Black family.
As for why Wright inferred that the Horcrux found by Dumbledore this time was a Slytherin locket, the reason is also very simple.
From life to death, Voldemort produced a total of seven Horcruxes, cruelly dividing his soul into eight parts.
The names of those Horcruxes have long been familiar to Wright. They are: Tom Riddle's diary, Marvolo Gunter's resurrection stone ring, and Salazar Slytherin's locket , Helga Hufflepuff’s Gold Cup, Rowena Ravenclaw’s Crown, Nagini, and Harry Potter.
Although Tom's diary was discovered by Wright and given to Dumbledore as early as last year, neither of them destroyed the Horcrux that time. On the contrary, Wright fed the diary through the plant life force of the eight pawns and chess pieces, releasing Tom Riddle, who was originally a student in the diary, to play for Dumbledore.
However, Wright also knows that because of being too greedy, or wanting to completely "resurrect" and get rid of the half-soul state, Tom, alias Jerry, rushed before Dumbledore and touched Marvolo without authorization. Gunter's resurrection stone ring was directly destroyed by the powerful curse imposed on it by Voldemort.
In this way, both the diary and the resurrection stone ring were destroyed.
Nagini was following Voldemort who looked like a ghost at this time. The location is unknown; although there is a piece of Voldemort's soul hidden in Harry's body, after so many years of symbiosis, the two souls have long changed. To be inseparable, there is no other way than self-destruction.
In other words, Voldemort, Nagini, and Harry must be "killed" in the final battle.
The only remaining Horcruxes are the Slytherin locket, Hufflepuff's gold cup, and Ravenclaw's crown.
But the golden cup is now under the Gringotts, in the vault of the Lestrange family; the crown of Ravenclaw, there is the responsive room on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle, the room full of debris inside.
Perhaps Dumbledore had discovered Voldemort's use of golden cups and lockets as Horcruxes at this time, but now he can only find this one that was hidden in the cave where Voldemort visited when he was young. The locket of the great Salazar Slytherin.
"Here?" Wright glanced around the surroundings.
He and Dumbledore were standing at the top of a tall black rock out of the sea at this time. The rolling waves were constantly churning under their feet, and the sporadic waves were picked up by huge force and fell on them. On his shoes, robes, and even on his face.
"Yeah." Dumbledore nodded and said.
"To be honest, this is the first time I have come to the beach in my life. But unfortunately, it seems to have completely eliminated my good expectations of the sea." Wright wiped the splashing water on his face and gave Gave a merciless answer.
"Actually, my senses in this place are not very good," Dumbledore said. "It's so restless."
Dumbledore motioned to Wright to walk to the edge of the rock. I wonder if it was developed. There are many uneven gaps on the rock for people to set foot on, leading to the giant pebbles that are closer to the sea below.
"Remember what I told you about Voldemort's childhood life?" Dumbledore asked Wright as he walked down.
"Yes, teacher." Wright said, "Tom Riddle lived in an orphanage in London before he entered Hogwarts. When he was eleven years old, Hogwarts' He was aware of the magic power contained in his body by detecting magic and sent an admission letter. You, a professor of transfiguration at the time, handed the admission letter to Tom Riddle."
There are still some words, Wright just turned in his heart, and did not say: "You were strong and powerful back then, probably because of your old love’s troubles, and even you are still an eleven-year-old. In front of the child, he performed a closet burning technique with his own hands. Perhaps he wanted to use it to force him to atone for his sins. Although the child has indeed proven to be the most dangerous dark wizard ever, he was only eleven years old at that time. Just a kid!"
Wright naturally ignored that although Voldemort was only eleven years old at that time~IndoMTL.com~, he was already able to manipulate magic to do some things, including but not limited to: making things move without touching them. , Train animals (snake) to obey his instructions, let whoever want to be unlucky (even hurt), hang the bunny on the beam (and commit a perfect crime without being noticed), scare The two boys are mentally abnormal...
Well! He is still just a child!
In fact, what Wright didn't notice at all was another point.
When the postman sent the admission letter from Hogwarts, and Professor McGonagall came to the Juan Children’s Welfare Institute to give him "science", he was a fake "eleven-year-old" boy, but he was a super active Night (combat) criminal veterans. What Voldemort did at that age was nothing compared to him.
Dumbledore was unaware of Wright’s psychological activities. He said, “The orphanage where Tom is staying holds a tour every year. During another trip, Tom threatened the other two orphans in this cave. Their spirits have caused a great impact. After my investigation, I am pretty sure that there is a Horcrux hidden in this cave."
At this time, the two of them had already descended on the giant pebble closest to the front of the cliff. Under the dark rock wall not far from them, it was the cave entrance with an inverted V shape.
Dumbledore’s expression hesitated at this moment, he hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Wright, although I brought you, but if I don’t warn you in advance, there is an extraordinary danger here. Even more terrifying than the danger of Gunter’s old house, I shouldn’t be."
Wright did not speak, but took out a fluorescent lamp from Mok's pocket around his waist, held it up, and slowly put it in the air.
