Chapter 369: Magma and Ambushes (two chapters in one)
The flames flowed, spreading to every corner of the space like water.
Daphne felt as if she had fallen asleep, and in her dream she seemed to have turned into a flowing flame in a cave. She wandered around the cave curiously, and wherever she went, the flames spread.
At this moment, she was a flame, but she could flow like water.
Les, who was sitting next to her, was the first to notice the difference, and then Astoria also discovered the changes in her sister: her body temperature was rising rapidly, and sitting next to her was like sitting next to a fire.
Les: !!!
He was familiar with this scene.
[Salazar, look, I turned into a ball of fire——]
A familiar but unfamiliar voice seemed to ring in Les' ears, and the figure of the man with red hair appeared in his mind, but the man's facial features were already a little blurred.
"Les, what's wrong with my sister?" Astoria's voice floated over, pulling Les back to reality. He looked at Daphne with complicated eyes, pulled Astoria aside, and told her that Daphne seemed to have realized something extraordinary.
After hearing what Les said, Astoria looked at Daphne with extremely complicated eyes, and she lowered her voice and asked: "Sister, is this... awakening the realm?"
"It's hard to say." Les shook his head. Awakening the realm is not that simple. Helga provided so many conveniences for the talented Cedric, but he only realized a little bit of it in the end.
If you say that Daphne can awaken the realm by looking at the fireplace, Les doesn't believe it.
"She has touched the edge of the realm, and there are only a few steps away from owning the realm. These steps may take a lifetime to cross. But more people don't even have the qualifications to touch the edge." Les tried to explain to Astoria her sister's current realm. At the end, he smiled and said, "Ninety-nine percent of wizards in the magic world don't even know what a domain is."
After the explanation, Rice and Astoria shut their mouths together and quietly watched Daphne staring at the fire - the fire in the fireplace was now burning very vigorously, and it even felt like it was gushing out of the fireplace.
Rice's mood at this time was very complicated. On the one hand, he was sincerely happy for Daphne, this is a domain, once awakened, it will benefit her for life, on the other hand, this domain is good for anything else, it has to be fire...
I was very angry.
It was like a weed named Godric grew in the field he carefully tended.
Rice even doubted himself: Is it wrong for him to let students explore the domain on their own? If he guided Daphne like Helga, would she take her own path and awaken the water domain?
But after calming down and thinking for a moment, Rice still felt that he was right.
Although he disliked the fire domain, it was because this type of domain was branded by Godric, and it had nothing to do with its power.
In terms of strength, the fire domain is a top domain that is only slightly inferior to his water domain.
Daphne's ability to comprehend such an ability is enough to make him feel relieved.
And Les doesn't understand why everyone thinks of Gryffindor when mentioning fire? Do you have to write an application to Godric before using the fire domain? !
Les thinks that as long as Daphne is good enough, when people mention the fire domain in the future, they will definitely think of her first, or Dumbledore.
By the way, Dumbledore also knows the fire domain, so it may be his influence.
Yes, is it strange that students are like the principal?
Les thinks he has figured it out.
After a long time, the fireplace was finally "filled" with flames, just like a water tank is filled with water, and the flames in the fireplace also overflowed. It crossed the threshold of the fireplace and scattered on the ground, flowing everywhere like water.
The magical thing is that these flames did not harm the precious carpets on the ground. They burned in the void, as if they did not need any fuel.
When the flames flowed to Daphne's feet, they burst into flames as if they had encountered grease, engulfing Daphne's whole body and turning the girl into a huge fireball.
Les was quick to cover Astoria's mouth and hold back the exclamation.
It is very dangerous to be disturbed when comprehending the domain, and it is also likely to miss the opportunity. However, Les is experienced, and under his care, Daphne is foolproof.
However, the following developments, even Les felt a little surprised.
Under normal circumstances, Daphne will gradually return to her normal form after completing the elementalization, but now the flames on her body have no signs of extinguishing, but are becoming more and more violent.
"Is my sister really okay?" Astoria looked at her sister who had turned into a fireball with concern, always feeling that her sister had gone too far?
"It's okay, this is normal." Les's voice was steady and calm, and he revealed a sense of calmness in his calmness, and Astoria felt relieved all of a sudden.
What happened when Godric awakened the domain back then? ? ?
Les's brain was working fast.
He couldn't quite remember what happened back then, it seemed like a traditional, clichéd drama of a man breaking through a desperate situation - Godric was just such a person, fitting in with everyone's stereotype of a sunny, cheerful protagonist.
The villains beat Godric to the point of death, putting them in a desperate situation. Then, according to Godric's own account, he recalled every bit of his experience along the way, and then he caught fire, howling and killing the enemy.
This is obviously a little different from Daphne's situation...
The good news is that he can still feel Daphne's vitality from the fire, which is why he did not intervene.
Daphne is now like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon. The best way to deal with it is to remain unchanged in the face of change.
"We just need to wait." Les said comfortingly. But it is hard to say whether this sentence is comforting Astoria or himself.
After waiting quietly for a few minutes, the flame on Daphne's body changed wonderfully.
If Les wants to find an exact adjective, it is "juice-reducing". The flame that Daphne turned into became viscous, and even gave people a sense of solidity, just like a cola that has been evaporated by high temperature and only syrup is left.
Les squinted his eyes and observed for a while, and then realized that his good student seemed to be comprehending not the pure field of fire, but a variant of fire, magma.
Her direction is related to fire, earth, and water, and it is also a first-class powerful domain.
There is no doubt that domains are also divided into high and low. The more basic the domain, the stronger it is, such as Les's water, Helga's earth, and Rowena's wind.
The domain of several elements mixed together is also extremely powerful, and more importantly, Les's domain has limited suppression power on this mixed domain.
The variant domain of a single element is more restrained. For example, water has a very strong suppression power on the fields of fog and frost.
As for those "domains" that can only provide some special effects, they can only be regarded as curses in Les' mind.
After the "juice collection" was over, the flames gradually extinguished on Daphne's body surface, and finally left a layer of gray-black scab.
Astoria: ...
Sister, how can you see that you are fine? Being covered with this kind of stuff, even if you are still alive, you are probably disfigured, right?
Astoria shuddered.
Les knew very well that Daphne's "transformation" was over, and she successfully touched the threshold of the domain. He was happy for Daphne from the bottom of his heart, especially that she pulled back at the last moment and did not create a purebred fire domain.
It was amazing. Some people need to experience life and death to get to this point, while others can achieve it just by staring at the fireplace. Perhaps this is the so-called "loss must be gain". Daphne added the points that should have been added to intelligence to other places-
Rice shook his head and drove this strange idea out of his mind. Daphne was his student after all, and he couldn't say that to her secretly.
"A thousand years ago, you would have to respectfully call your sister Your Majesty." In a good mood, Rice blinked at Astoria and made a joke with her.
Astoria: ...
She felt her blood pressure rising: Why? Why did my sister suddenly understand? Because stupid people have stupid luck?
She stared at the fireplace angrily for a long time, but her eyes were sore and she couldn't see anything.
Rice followed Astoria's gaze and found what she was staring at, and he immediately took a breath.
"Take a walk by the Black Lake when you have nothing to do. Maybe one day you will suddenly become enlightened like your sister." Les guided Astoria "slightly".
If both of his students were in the fire domain, he might not be able to accept it.
Crack!
While Les was chatting with Astoria, Daphne also regained consciousness. As her body moved, the scabs on Daphne's body turned into volcanic ash-like powder and slid down her skin.
Astoria carefully observed everything that happened to her sister, and was shocked to find that her clothes were intact and her skin was whiter than before.
"Elementalization is the process of turning the body into elements and then reversing it. In this process, the structure of the body will be reshaped, and some impurities will be expelled from the body, making the body purer." Les saw the strange color on Astoria's face, so he took the initiative to explain to her the principle of the phenomenon that appeared in Daphne.
After hearing Les' words, Astoria's desire for the domain became stronger.
...
Deep in the Connaught Mountains in western Ireland, inside a stone mountain that no Muggle detection method can find.
Hiss——
A large basin of liquid medicine was poured into the stone bathing pool dug out from the ground. White smoke suddenly emerged from the turbid water surface, and a disgusting stench of corruption was emitted.
The woman who poured the liquid medicine into the pool couldn't help but frowned: After all, she was a person with a constellation title, why did she suffer such a punishment in such a place?
This woman was the Aries who went to Azkaban to explore the whereabouts of Voldemort's Horcrux and attacked Gringotts. The person in the "bath" was undoubtedly Voldemort.
After the four of them stole Voldemort's Horcrux from Gringotts, they found a hidden place to hide. They thought that what was waiting for them was a wanted order from the British wizarding world, but they didn't expect that the next day's Daily Prophet would put all the responsibility on the fire dragon.
They were relieved all of a sudden, and under the leadership of Taurus, they began to prepare for Voldemort's resurrection plan. This plan is actually very simple, and it is divided into three stages. The first stage is to cultivate Voldemort's Horcruxes, so that the soul fragments in the Horcruxes can absorb enough power to recover to a state where they can move and cast spells.
In the second stage, they will find a way to reshape Voldemort's body and completely revive him.
In the third stage, some of the "foundation" in the organization will be handed over to Voldemort, so that he can gain enough power to defeat Dumbledore - these foundations are too dangerous, and the organization is unwilling to use them on the elites that have been cultivated with great effort, but for Voldemort, a disposable consumable, it can be used boldly. The "foundation" used by Voldemort once may become milder, and it can be recycled at that time.
"Clean up, wind speed!" Taurus walked in, and was also frowned by the stench in the small space.
He cast two spells to ease the smell inside.
After doing all this, he carefully observed the state of Voldemort's spirit in the bath, and then he was delighted to find that the first stage of his plan had been achieved, and Voldemort's current spirit strength was even enough to support his independent actions.
"Voldemort, your condition has recovered quite well." He said to the pool.
Gurgle gurgle ~
A string of bubbles emerged from the depths of the pool, followed by a stench that ordinary people could not bear, and a figure that seemed to be substantial emerged from the water.
From the appearance, the figure was a handsome young man, but there was a horrifying blood red flashing deep in his eyes.
This is Tom Riddle in his youth.
"Is it time to enter the second stage?" The young Riddle smiled: "I have a great idea, an ancient and mysterious magic ritual can help me restore my body."
"Oh?" Taurus was immediately interested, and then Voldemort told him that he only needed "father's bones", "servant's flesh" and "enemy's blood" to revive and restore his heyday's power.
Taurus frowned all of a sudden: Father's bones, this is not difficult to get, anyway Voldemort should know where his father's grave is; enemy's blood is even easier to get, because Voldemort has enemies all over the world; but servant's flesh...
Is he saying that the four of us are his servants? Taurus couldn't help but feel angry when he thought of this, and he directly rejected Voldemort's proposal.
Voldemort, who was rejected, flashed a trace of anger in his eyes, but he concealed it well. After suppressing his anger, he politely asked Taurus if he had any ideas.
"We can find a living wizard's body for you, and then use the secret method of the organization to let your soul possess that body. When your soul has completed the running-in with the body, you are equivalent to resurrection."
Voldemort pondered for a moment, and finally agreed to Taurus's proposal.
"Remember to find a handsome guy."
"Okay." Taurus nodded, and then ordered Gemini and Pisces to find a suitable body for Voldemort, and they wanted handsome wizards.
The two people who were assigned the task did not dare to neglect and set off directly.
After walking out of the stone mountain, Gemini looked at Pisces and made a suggestion.
"It seems that there is a guy named Lockhart, who is quite handsome. He is currently detained in Azkaban. Why don't we use him as a filler?"
Pisces thought for a while and agreed with Gemini's proposal - it is a good decision to use prisoners in prison to serve as Voldemort's body. It is convenient and does not attract attention.
After reaching an agreement, the two rode their flying brooms directly to the North Sea.
However, on the way, they met a man, a handsome boy riding a broom.
The two changed their minds.
