Nian Gao Pei Ma Tuan
The small episode did not cause any waves. Although Voldemort's ultimatum frightened many people, Dumbledore's "death" united Hogwarts like never before.
More importantly, the arrival of a group of people also gave everyone a shot in the arm.
Not long after Voldemort's voice stopped, there were footsteps outside the auditorium door, and Fei Erqi hurriedly opened the door and entered.
"Professor McGonagall! Good news, look who is here!"
Behind him, a group of heavily armed Aurors strode in, led by Rufus Scrimgeour, who almost failed to become Minister of Magic.
"Uncle Scrimgeour!"
Before Professor McGonagall could speak, Cormac McLaggen, who had been huddled like a quail in the auditorium from beginning to end, suddenly became energetic and shouted hello.
"Thank God, are you here to save us?"
The Gryffindors who always valued courage the most all looked at him with disdain. Scrimgeour just glanced at him and ignored him.
"Great! I finally got your support." Professor McGonagall adjusted her robes and said, "Filch's secret passages can still be used. It seems that Hogsmeade has not yet completely fallen. into the control of a mysterious man."
"That's right." Scrimgeour nodded, "There's nothing happening over there for the time being. What's the situation at Hogwarts now?"
"Frankly speaking, I'm not optimistic..." Professor McGonagall said with a serious face, "I think you have also heard that the mysterious man just issued an ultimatum. Even if you are included, I am afraid..."
Mad-Eye also joined their discussion. The three of them ignored the politeness and immediately began to discuss the next defensive arrangement.
Glenn's attention was always on Harry, and he noticed him quietly getting up and walking out of the auditorium, and quickly chased after him.
After so many sacrifices, the crux of the entire plan was just beginning.
When Glenn chased him out, Harry was no longer outside the door. He must have put on the invisibility cloak and was preparing to leave the castle and face Voldemort alone.
Although Voldemort's words just now failed to shake the military morale of Hogwarts, they still touched Harry's heart.
Fortunately, Glenn still had the system map and quickly caught up to Harry and said loudly: "Wait, Harry, I have something to tell you!"
The savior star seemed to have made up his mind and kept walking forward without looking back.
"I know your current plan, Harry, don't worry, I'm not here to stop you. But before that, there is one very important thing..."
Not far in front of him, the invisibility cloak was lifted, revealing Harry's figure.
"Sorry, Glenn..." He looked embarrassed, "I don't have much time, there are only the last 10 minutes left before Voldemort's deadline..."
Glenn shook his head slightly: "Don't worry, I won't delay for too long, I just have something to explain to you."
"What's the matter?" Harry asked blankly.
"Simply put, this is about our last chance."
"A chance?" Harry was slightly surprised, "Dumbledore is no longer here, will we still have a chance?"
In his opinion, with the "death" of Dumbledore, no one in the world can stop Voldemort. All he can do is to avoid unnecessary sacrifices as much as possible.
"Of course." Glenn nodded, "You must still remember the thing about Horcruxes."
Harry recalled for a moment and nodded: "I know, I know, but even if we still have a chance, it's too late, right?"
Glenn shook his head slightly and took out the destroyed Hufflepuff gold cup from his pocket.
"Besides the Sword of Gryffindor, this is the relic of the last founder, and it is also the fifth Horcrux we destroyed." There was a hint of encouragement in his tone, "Only the last two Horcruxes remain, we still have a chance."
Harry's eyes lit up, but then dimmed quickly: "But we don't even know where the last two Horcruxes are, do we?"
"No." Glenn said, "In fact, Dumbledore has confirmed that the big snake Nagini beside Voldemort has become his Horcrux. As for the last one..."
He pretended to be slightly hesitant.
"What is it?" Harry took the bait and asked impatiently.
Glenn showed a troubled expression and hesitated for a long time before saying: "I think you must have always been curious - why you have so many similar characteristics to Voldemort; why are you the only one to establish that special relationship with Voldemort? Connection; and, of course, what does that scar on your forehead really mean..."
There was a long silence, and Harry's expression changed one after another.
"You mean..."
Although he has always had a reckless temper, this does not mean that the Savior is a brainless fool. On the contrary, most of the time, he is far smarter than ordinary people.
Harry spoke with some difficulty: "You mean...I am Voldemort's...last Horcrux?"
"I'm afraid you're right." Glenn nodded.
"How is this possible..." Harry was obviously confused, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Glenn did not hesitate and decisively put the blame on Dumbledore's head: "I don't know, this is Dumbledore's intention. I think he probably doesn't want you to face such a heavy thing too early."
Harry looked a little stunned, and finally understood why he had hateful thoughts about Dumbledore, and why he was so easily controlled by Voldemort... everything became reasonable.
"I know what you are going to do now, and I have no intention of stopping you." Glenn continued, "However, I think this thing may be able to provide you with some help."
As he spoke, he put away the gold cup and took out a black diamond-shaped gem from his pocket.
"What is this?" Harry asked blankly as he took the gem.
"The Resurrection Stone." Glenn said, "One of the Deathly Hallows. Of course, it can't really resurrect anyone, but that doesn't matter. You just need to know that it may be able to provide you with some spiritual help. .”
"You only need to put it on your hand and spin it three times when you need it, and someone will naturally show up to help you." Glenn continued, "But you have to remember, don't get addicted to it."
"I understand...Glenn, thank you." Harry said solemnly, "As for the snake..."
"Don't worry." Glenn patted his shoulder gently, "I will find a way to deal with it."
The invisibility cloak was put back on, and Harry's figure disappeared again.
The castle door was gently pushed open a crack, and Glenn gave the last instruction: "Remember, Harry, you must let Voldemort do it himself..."
More importantly, the arrival of a group of people also gave everyone a shot in the arm.
