Chapter 111

Is Tom Riddle a smart man? This question should not be asked, look at the wizards he bewitched, look at the wizards who were deceived by him to death, even Dumbledore, who was deceived by him. It is impossible to become a great wizard without a brilliant mind, and Riddle has already mastered a lot of magical knowledge when he was a student, and he is stronger than most wizards in terms of the breadth and depth of magical knowledge, and this is still in his student days. It can even be said that even the current Solim, on the premise of having the great treasure trove of Selwyn, cannot be compared with Riddle in this regard

What is Tom Riddle's origin? Half-blood, although he has a once glorious family, but in his generation, Riddle did not get any help from the family, even if he holds the title of a Slytherin descendant, but whether it is theoretical knowledge or other aspects, it is completely on his own, which is very remarkable, no matter what he has done, but at this point, no one will doubt Riddle's talent and hard work.

But it was such a gifted wizard who chose to make Horcruxes when he was not yet 20 years old. This is something that many wizards in the know do not understand. According to Riddle's talent, becoming a great wizard in the future is almost a sure thing, and almost all great wizards will choose to enter the Presbyterian Church to do things, as the so-called back to the big tree is good to enjoy the shade, with such a behemoth as the Presbyterian Council as a backing, Riddle can obviously obtain better resources and knowledge, but he did not choose this path.

Obviously not, after all, he knew all about the Horcruxes that ordinary wizards had never heard of, and even figured out exactly how to make them, so he would definitely not miss such information as the Elders. Aside from Riddle's unwanted restraints, Solim couldn't think of anything else to explain.

"Did you know the side effects of Horcruxes before you made them, or did you just do it when you saw the effect of Horcruxes on preventing unnatural death?"

"It can keep me from dying. Riddle looked at Solim calmly, "As long as it does have this effect, then nothing else is on my radar. "

Sneering, Solim said, "Even if it's at the cost of living like the walking dead? Did Headmaster Dumbledore tell you about another one of your current conditions?"

Without waiting for Riddle to speak, Solim continued to speak to himself: "Without a body, you can hardly use any magic, because you can't use a wand in that state, but if you want to have a body again, you must use a wand, unless someone helps you, and this person can't be an ordinary wizard, at least you have to have a deep knowledge in black magic, such a person can help you, and such a wizard can't be forcibly controlled in that kind of ghost-like state." Are you really sure that this kind of immortality is what you want?"

"But I'm not dead, am I? I'm still alive, even if I'm seriously injured, I still have the possibility of a comeback, maybe some wizards are stronger than me, but if they die, they don't have a chance, but I still have a chance, as long as my Horcrux is still there, I'm immortal, I can fail once, fail twice, but as long as my Horcrux is still there, I can start all over again. Riddle said conceitedly, "Compared to this, what are the side effects of Horcruxes?"

"So? Headmaster Dumbledore promised you a physical body? What conditions did you meet?"

"It's nothing to tell you, cooperate with the headmaster's plan in this incident, help find the Horcruxes he made later, destroy the rest of the Horcruxes, destroy that madman, and use an ancient black magic to regain my body. "

“...... You're the Horcrux, and that 'madman' is you, so tell me how to destroy all the Horcruxes to get rid of that madman while saving yourself?"

The diary is a Horcrux, and if you want to completely destroy Voldemort, you must first destroy all the Horcruxes, but Riddle is one of the Horcruxes, that is, if you want to completely destroy Voldemort, you must first destroy Riddle.

"Horcruxes are Horcruxes, and I am me. Don't confuse me with Horcruxes. "

"You are separated from him, even if you change the carrier, you are still his Horcrux. "Solim thinks he knows something about Horcruxes.

"You may know a little about Horcruxes, but certainly not as much as I do. Riddle affirmed: "The relationship between me and 'him' is a mutual Horcrux, and you can think of it this way: I am the subject, and the mad madman is an out-of-control Horcrux, and there is no conflict between destroying him and keeping me alive." "

Maybe Riddle was right, but Solim wouldn't take his word for granted. And then again, Voldemort's real death has nothing to do with him, even if Dumbledore fails in the end, then there will be other people who stand up against him, and he can't stand up to Solim, Solim gave Dumbledore the Horcruxes mainly for himself, not for the so-called people and justice.

"Let's put this matter aside for now, it has nothing to do with me anyway. Riddle's figure faded a little, indicating that the life force provided by Solim's blood was running out. "Let's talk about the plan, you will definitely use your current form to meet Potter at that time, what are you going to do then?

Solim won't be ready to show up then, but if he doesn't show up, he won't show up, and what needs to be done still has to be done.

"The Headmaster has prepared a fake journal, just let Potter destroy that when the time comes. Then I just pretended to be defeated, it wasn't that difficult. I guess you're worried about who the original attacker should be, right?" Riddle clearly knew what Solim was trying to ask, "Are you worried that the Headmaster will sell you at the last minute?" Indeed, Headmaster Dumbledore wasn't as upright as he usually appears, and I think you and I both know very well what he's done. But you don't have to worry about the Chamber of Secrets, because as long as I 'die' in front of Potter, then the dust will settle, and then I can tell Potter that I have been kept in the school library, so that the problem of provenance is solved, are you still satisfied with this answer?"

Doing things for Dumbledore was not an easy task, especially since Solim was not a Dumbledore man. Solim was worried that Dumbledore would sell himself at the last minute and take the opening of the Chamber of Secrets to himself. Although this is very unlikely, Solim also has to think about what to do if this happens.

While Solim and Riddle were talking comfortably in their dorm, Harry and Ron were running away in a frenzy. The two silly children had no idea how dangerous the Forbidden Forest was at night, especially since they had entered the territory of the Eight-Eyed Spider, and although they had gotten some clues from the giant spider called Aragog, it cost them their lives, which was obviously not acceptable to Harry and Ron, so they had to flee in the Forbidden Forest in a frenzy.

It is very strange that two little wizards with no magical abilities were able to escape under the pursuit of a large number of eight-eyed giant spiders, although the flying Ford car did help a lot, but some details of the entire escape process obviously did not attract the attention of these two people, they only cared about escaping, naturally they would not notice that some eight-eyed giant spiders would die inexplicably in the process of their escape.

Regardless, Harry and Ron barely completed their mission, learning that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets was an ancient creature, and a creature that terrified the Eight-Eyed Spider. What it was, Harry and the others didn't know, but they knew that there was someone who could help them in that regard.
