Chapter 354: Alarming the Snake
Chapter 354: Alarming the Snake
News of the Ink Shadows' massacre spread quickly throughout the wizarding world.
Ordinary wizards were shocked at his cruelty, and more dark wizards heard the news and rushed to join him.
There were also many wizards who left because they felt Mo Bai was too cruel.
Mo Bai didn't stop him.
In fact, there was no need for him to stop it, as this was something he was happy to see.
He didn't really want to unify the world, but he wanted to gather more dark wizards to make Hermione's position as Minister of Magic more secure.
These normal wizards should just do what they are supposed to do.
White naturally heard about this as well.
He found Hermione first.
"Hermione, Mo Bai has appeared! Do you know where he is now?"
"Call me Granger," Hermione looked up from her office, "We're not that familiar with each other yet."
"Hey, we're all family, you're mine..."
White got stuck in the middle of his speech, rolled his eyes and started snapping his fingers, muttering to himself.
"Mints is my aunt, so what should the daughter-in-law of my aunt's son be called?"
"Eh? What's the name of your aunt's son? Nephew? Cousin?"
"Oh yes, cousin."
"You are my cousin."
Hermione looked at this fool speechlessly.
She suddenly wondered if she was being too pessimistic. Could this guy really pose a threat to Bai?
"I actually have a clue about him."
"real?!"
White's eyes lit up.
"Although the Ministry of Magic has not found his exact location, they have found out that he may be related to the ancient wizards, and it is very likely that he is with them now."
"Ancient wizard?"
White scratched his head, "Those old guys are not easy to mess with."
Hermione lowered her head slightly, Bai's guess was indeed correct.
These immortal species must have information about the ancient wizards.
"But thanks, I'll be leaving now."
"Hey~" He stretched, "I can finally go home."
"Then I'll trouble you to attend classes during this time."
After saying that, White went out.
Hermione pouted.
This guy knows absolutely nothing about spells. He was just reciting the textbooks in class and even fell asleep while reciting.
She has been teaching almost all the Defense Against the Dark Arts classes since the beginning of the school year.
This guy finally left.
And she was finally able to do her own thing.
She had not forgotten why she returned to Hogwarts.
After confirming with Mo Bai, she knew that her guess was correct.
It is very likely that one of Voldemort's Horcruxes is at Hogwarts.
And this Horcrux is also related to Ravenclaw.
Luckily for Darkness, there were plenty of Ravenclaws.
"I'm looking for something..."
During training, Hermione called the Ravenclaw students aside, "One thing that can help us fight Voldemort. Do you know any rumors about Ravenclaw, such as whether she has left behind any treasures?"
"It's the missing diadem," Luna said slowly, "Ravenclaw's diadem. My father wanted to make a copy of it."
"Missing? When did he disappear?"
"It was centuries ago," Cho began. "Professor Flitwick told us that the diadem disappeared along with Ravenclaw himself."
"It's not that no one has looked for it, but there is no clue at all."
Hermione looked down in thought.
Bai's guess would not be wrong, the Ravenclaw crown must be in Hogwarts.
"Do you want to see what it's like? I can take you to the Ravenclaw common room. There's a statue of Ravenclaw wearing a diadem."
"of course."
On the other side, Mo Bai also began to search for the Horcrux.
In the manor, a man with fanatical eyes handed a ring inlaid with a black gem to Mo Bai.
"My Lord, I found this in the old Gaunt house."
Mo Bai casually put the ring on the table and took the man's hand.
His hands looked like those of a corpse, dark and dry.
One can feel the dark and malevolent magic above just by looking at it.
Mo Bai frowned slightly and probed his magic power.
As soon as he looked at it, darkness came towards him.
His frown deepened.
"Scoo, this curse works on the soul. I can't do anything about it for now."
Sco looked at his hands, "My Lord, how much time do I have left?"
"The dark magic is constantly eroding your soul. Probably, it will take about three months."
Scott was silent for a long time.
"Then please give me the last mission."
Mo Bai's eyes flickered for a moment.
But his complexion was not obvious.
"Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
Scott stared at Mo Bai and said, "I hope you can lead us so that wizards can get the status they deserve."
Mo Bai lowered his eyelids, "I understand."
Mo Bai issued his last task to Scott, and returned to the third floor to make himself a cup of tea.
Everything he had done so far had been for a purpose.
Let Hermione become Minister of Magic.
But he seemed to have forgotten that, except for a limited number of people, the people who followed him now were all true followers of him.
In other words, he didn't forget, he just didn't care.
To him, the life or death of anyone other than Hermione was none of his business.
But Scott's words just now actually touched him.
He couldn't help but think that he would be able to get away easily after it was over, but the lightest fate for this group of people would be to go to Azkaban.
After spending so much time with Hermione, I seem to have become soft-hearted.
He held the teacup, lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
It seems that I should be responsible for these people.
It seems that I can make good on the excuse I used to trick Scrimgeour...
======================
A piece of news spread throughout the wizarding world.
"I heard someone won the Hufflepuff gold cup?"
In the tavern, two wizards were chatting.
"What is the use of this golden cup? Can drinking the water inside make people eternally young?"
"Who knows, but a Hufflepuff relic must be a valuable magical item."
"There are so many magic props. The current liveliness of the magic world cannot be solved by a magic prop."
"Indeed, who do you think is stronger, the mysterious man or Mo Bai?"
"I think……"
In the corner, a hooded man walks out of the bar.
In just a few minutes, black air suddenly appeared in Diagon Alley. The leader had a pale face and walked quickly into Gringotts with the others.
Not long after, when he walked out of the door of Gringotts again, he looked much better, with an expression of having survived a disaster on his face. He looked around in panic and Apparated away.
The hooded man looked at his departing figure, smiled, and turned away as well.
It was just as the Lord expected.
"Master, the golden cup is not lost. It is still in Gringotts."
In front of Malfoy Manor, Rodolphus Lestrange stood respectfully in front of a door.
The door suddenly opened, everyone took a step back, and the surging magic power in Voldemort's body slowly subsided.
"Have you found the source of the news?"
"Found him. He is a dark wizard named Sco, and he lives in the suburbs now."
There was a vicious look in Voldemort's eyes.
"Let's go meet this person."
When Voldemort appeared, Scott sat calmly at the table.
"Voldemort, you are here as expected."
Voldemort's pupils contracted.
In the sight, the man's hand, which had turned black due to the curse, was placed on the table in a dignified manner.
Of course he knew what caused this, because he was the one who cast the curse himself.
A great fear rose from the bottom of my heart, "Where is the thing?"
Facing the furious Voldemort, Scott laughed sarcastically.
The so-called Dark Lord's every move was within the master's expectations.
"Instead of asking that, you should ask where the other things are."
"For example, the thing you just sent your men to look at..."
At that moment, Voldemort's face turned green.
A green light suddenly lit up, and looking at the corpse in front of him, Voldemort trembled with anger.
"Now, immediately, go to Gringotts!!!"
