In This Hogwarts Without a Savior Chapter 312

   Chapter 312 310. Lies

   "The Triwizard Tournament proposed by the Dark Lord?"

  Jon asked with wide-eyed eyes.

   It's no wonder that Jon was shocked. He happened to have just read the first four parts of the original work for the second time before time travel, that is, until the end of the Goblet of Fire chapter, the Triwizard Tournament.

  The Triwizard Tournament was held in the last year of peace in the magic world.

   But now the whole of Europe is in chaos after Voldemort occupied France. Jon never thought that the Triwizard Tournament could be held as in the original book, not to mention the huge changes in history.

  But the facts were far from what he thought. Not only did the Triwizard Tournament take place as scheduled, Voldemort himself proposed it.

  Dumbledore told Jon how Wu Pingxian was attacking the French Ministry of Magic. After listening to it, Jon fell into deep thought.

"He shouldn't have recovered so quickly." Jon said suspiciously, "At that time, he expended so much energy and abandoned everything he had in England to go to sea. From the current point of view, the most fundamental problem is to solve the problem of the soul. After I left Starr Tower and tore up the contract, it should have had a great impact on him, and it is unreasonable to recover so quickly."

   "But what is even more unreasonable is that he actually wants to hold the Triwizard Tournament?"

  Jon frowned.

"According to the situation you said at the time, professor, if his strength has been restored to its fullest state, he should have the advantage and the odds of winning. However, in the name of keeping the French Ministry of Magic, he intends to use means other than war way to solve the problem”

   "I don't think he will just give up trying to save the face he lost when he was defeated by you in public in order to keep the French Ministry of Magic."

   Dumbledore crossed his hands and put them on his stomach, he said with a chuckle.

"This question is actually not difficult to guess at all, Jon. When a person gives up the option that seems to be the best for him, but chooses another option, it means that he knows exactly which one is the best for him. benefit is greater.”

   "Now that he has chosen to use the Triwizard Tournament to solve the problem, it means that he believes that holding this competition will bring him greater benefits, including the problems that have appeared in the newspaper he instructed now."

   "He wants to stabilize the situation and clear the way for the upcoming Triwizard Tournament. What we have to think about is what kind of huge benefits the holding of this Triwizard Tournament will bring to him."

  His expression was very serious, obviously discussing this issue with Jon seriously.

  Wizards are extremely lacking in rational logical thinking because they have been in a state of perceptual spellcasting for a long time, but Dumbledore is obviously different from normal wizards. He can reach the peak of sensibility, but he is also not lacking in rationality.

   "We can think backwards about his most urgent needs at present, and see what this game can bring him such great benefits."

   "First, the damage you caused to his soul after you tore up the contract."

"His recovery is very strange. Let's assume that his recovery state is temporary, special, and cannot be maintained for a long time. Then his most urgent need now is to use a method to fully recover himself. .”

   "Second, the role of the contract is unique. Once it is torn, it cannot be repaired again, but he also left another backup to ensure that the contract can be replaced if something goes wrong."

"Assuming that the reason why he doesn't want to fight me in the French Ministry of Magic is that his follow-up contract to stabilize the soul is not as stable as the first one, but it can also guarantee the maintenance of power. Then the problem he has to face now, It is how to reverse the defeat in France."

"Third, the precondition is the same as the first one, the contract is damaged, he used a special method to temporarily restore his state, but he has also confirmed that after this period of time passes, his strength will never be able to return to the peak .”

   "Then what he has to do now is to solve me. As long as I bring my level to the same level as his, or kill me directly, it can still meet his needs."

  The three situations inferred by Dumbledore basically cover all possibilities.

   It is said that there are three types, but in fact the core of each one lies in what kind of state Voldemort's personal strength is now.

  But if the Triwizard Tournament is held, what kind of changes can it bring to Voldemort?

  Jon raised his head in thought and said.

"Is there a fourth possibility? The recovery of strength he showed in front of you, the professor, is actually an illusion. Proposing to hold the Triwizard Tournament is just a way of delaying time. He is still looking for something. Are there other ways to restore your own strength?"

   Dumbledore nodded slightly.

"It is not ruled out that there is no such possibility, but first of all, if he can really hide it from me, it means that the moment he hides it from me, he is already at the peak and surpasses me, unless he uses a method that I don't know .”

   Hearing what he said, Jon suddenly remembered what his purpose in coming to find Dumbledore was.

  He just finished reading the Daily Prophet and forgot about business.

  Jon hurriedly took out the portrait of Slytherin and unfolded it in front of Dumbledore.

"Professor, I almost forgot. I went to the last point of the North Pole according to Headmaster Bagshot, where I entered an underground labyrinth, and then found this magical portrait of Mr. Slytherin. From him, I learned that the original What the Dark Lord did after he found him."

   After introducing Dumbledore, Jon bowed his head and apologized to the Slytherin on the portrait.

   "Sorry, sir, I forgot about you just now."

   On the wall behind Dumbledore, there are portraits of previous Hogwarts headmasters. The headmasters, who were originally asleep, saw the portrait that Jon took out, and couldn't help but let out a soft cry.

  Although Slytherin had a bad temper, he didn't care much about Jon's little problem.

  After the booth was opened on the table, he looked at Dumbledore, and Dumbledore also looked at him with surprised eyes, and greeted the old man in the portrait with some strange emotions.

   "Hello, Mr. Salazar Slytherin."

   Slytherin nodded slightly at him, as a response.

   "I heard two different versions of you from two different students of yours, but now, I should be able to make my own judgment about who I should trust."

  His old-fashioned monkey-like face showed a gloomy look.

   "Tom Riddle tricked me!"

  Dumbledore and Jon glanced at each other. He obviously just realized that Voldemort's last stop at sea was to go to the North Pole to see the portraits left by his ancestors.

  Slytherin looked at Dumbledore and the portraits of previous headmasters on the wall behind him, and said in a hoarse and angry voice.

   "I know you want to know from me what he got after he found me."

  His gaze was dark and reminiscent.

"The labyrinth at the North Pole is a secret room under the ice that I created for magic research after I left Hogwarts. In the ice and snow that has never melted for thousands of years, there are many magical creatures that are different from the present. At that time I went there looking for something."

"The portraits were also left there at that time. I used some small tricks. The portraits left when I was alive were just ordinary portraits, but after I died, the potion that was supposed to be good would be sprinkled on time. On the ordinary portrait, let it become me now, so as to monitor the research I left in the North Pole, and control Haas, a basilisk."

   "Riddle came to that maze and found me fourteen years ago. He said that he found me here through the clues handed down by the Slytherin family. Now the magic world is in darkness, and he needs my help."

"He told me a story about wizards being oppressed by Muggles and pure-bloods hiding in the XZ. In the story, Albus Dumbledore was a wizard traitor who defected to Muggles. He is the headmaster of Hogwarts, who implements a policy of oppressing wizards with Muggles as the absolute core in the castle. He also unites the king of Muggles to enslave all wizards, and wizards in the whole world are in a state of comparison It was even more miserable a thousand years ago."

"Except for wizards born in Muggle families, all other children from wizard families will be domesticated into slaves to serve Muggles. After making a contract, just like house elves, they can only serve Muggles forever, and even become a tool of war for Muggles."

  Dumbledore and Jon were listening carefully, and the previous principals on the portraits were also frowning and whispering.

"He said that the Slytherin family had become the Gaunt family and had been hiding like mice with several other ancient pure-blood families, and had not been cursed to be enslaved by Muggles. He was deceived by Muggles and fell into a trap, which not only brought disaster to his family, but also gave birth to him of mixed blood, and after he was born, his Muggle father abandoned his wife and son, and let his Mother died in depression."

"After he grew up, he knew the true original intention of Hogwarts. In order to save the wizarding world and prevent wizards from completely becoming slaves of Muggles, a second Hogwarts was established, and every year Competing for the upbringing of wizard babies who have not yet been discovered by Muggles, while educating the next generation of wizards, while wandering and resisting Dumbledore's pursuit."

  After listening to Slytherin's narration, the previous principals were in an uproar.

   "Shameless! Really shameless!" The face of the kind female headmistress Dai Lisi was full of indignation and anger.

   Sirius' ancestor, Phineas, kept shaking his head: “I can make the story like this, even I don't have such a thick skin.”

Dumbledore's predecessor, Armando, also sighed: "He can perform. At that time, he deceived everyone in a school. I even always thought that he would definitely make the most outstanding contribution to the magic world in the future. .”

  The headmasters in the portraits reviled, lamented, and regretted this, while Dumbledore shook his head helplessly.

"There is no one who can lie more than him in this world. The things he told you are indeed true now, but it is not bloodline wizards who are oppressed, but bloodless blood. He saw At that time, you hadn't taken away Hogwarts Castle, and it wasn't like you ruled the whole of England now, but he could think of building Hogwarts as a slavery farm, so he probably had already made plans for the future at that time. "

  Jon already knew how Slytherin was deceived when he was in the maze. What he really wanted to know was what Voldemort finally asked Slytherin to do for him.

   "So sir, when he told you this, what did he want you to give him?"

  Slytherin didn't hide any more this time, he continued with an ugly face.

   "At that time, he told me that in order to avoid the pursuit of Muggles led by Dumbledore and continue to protect the seeds of the next generation of wizards, he had no choice but to use an immortal magic on himself."

  Hearing this, Jon and Dumbledore glanced at each other, and they immediately thought of what the magic was.

"He split his soul many times and made them into horcruxes. He told me that he knew it was evil black magic, but he had no other way. After successfully making horcruxes, he passed this method After passing through many crises, he later felt the harm that the Horcrux had done to his soul."

"He became more and more irritable and emotional, and almost lost his original reason. At this time, he realized that his situation was wrong. If he continued to rely on Horcruxes like this, then he would become Another person, completely controlled by black magic."

"So he thought of taking back all the remnant souls that were split into the Horcrux, so that he could become whole again. But after the soul is split, it is not so simple to get it back. He is I stuffed the remnant soul in the Horcrux back into my body, but there was no way to connect the soul into a whole."

"In the old house of the Slytherin family, he saw through some fragments that I had done a lot of research on the soul a thousand years ago, and then found me under the ice in the North Pole, and wanted to make me Help him provide a way to perfectly restore his soul."

  Jon looked at the Slytherin in the portrait.

   "Did you tell him the method?"

   "That's right, I believed him, and based on the situation he described, I helped him determine a plan to make the split soul whole again!"

  Jon was stunned, until now he was suddenly sure of one thing.

The soul separation contract that Voldemort lured Sir Stoke to sign for him on the Starr Tower, and the complementary soul he found in Slytherin for Horcrux splitting, are not aimed at the same soul problem !

   There is more in the back, let's see it tomorrow morning, it counts as making up the first number of leave requests, and writing more after completing the leave requests will count as adding more
