Chapter 182 The Changing Sword

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps were heard coming from afar, and in a moment, Professor Dumbledore McGonagall and Professor Snape appeared at the door.

When Black saw Dumbledore coming, a serious expression appeared on his face. He carefully took out an exquisite wooden box from a hidden cupboard and placed it on the long table in front of him.

At this moment, all the wizards of the Order of the Phoenix gathered around, their eyes becoming solemn at the same time, staring closely at the wooden box in front of them.

Blake took a deep breath and then lifted the lid without hesitation. As the lid opened, the wizards looked closely and saw a yellow crystal pendant box wrapped in gold rims lying quietly in the center of the wooden box, emitting an ominous aura.

"This... is this Voldemort's Horcrux?" Arthur Weasley asked, unable to suppress his shock.

"Yes, it was stolen by my brother Regulus and hidden in my home. I got to know it by chance and hid it!" Blake explained perfunctorily but clearly!

Dumbledore's wise eyes flashed with surprise, but it was just surprise. He knew that evil magic items like Horcruxes were extremely difficult and dangerous to make. He didn't expect that Tom, a crazy guy, could actually make more than one Horcrux!

Thinking of this, his already serious expression became slightly solemn.

At this moment, those who can stay here are the core members of the Order of the Phoenix. Each of them is battle-hardened, experienced and was a member more than ten years ago.

However, when they heard the shocking news, their reactions were different. Some opened their eyes wide in disbelief, some frowned and fell into deep thought, and some began to discuss in low voices.

Regulus Black, this name is not unfamiliar to everyone present. They all know that Regulus was once a loyal follower of Voldemort. But now, they learned that Regulus actually betrayed Voldemort and successfully stole his Horcrux! This is simply unbelievable and completely beyond their imagination.

Just when everyone hadn't recovered from this shocking news, Dumbledore dropped another bombshell: "According to my understanding, Tom has made far more Horcruxes than what we have discovered so far.

If we cannot destroy all the Horcruxes, then even if we defeat his physical body, he will not be truly dead." When he said this, Dumbledore's expression was extremely serious.

But Dumbledore did not tell anyone else that Harry was one of Voldemort's Horcruxes. He just glanced at Rowling, who was sitting silently and calmly. Seeing Rowling's calm performance, Dumbledore could not help but feel a little suspicious.

At this moment, Rowling sat quietly aside, his brain working rapidly, trying to sort out his thoughts. Why didn't Harry attend this important meeting, but called himself instead?

Was it simply because he was the first to tell Black about the locket? Perhaps this was indeed one of the reasons. However, what surprised Rowling even more was that the other members of the Order of the Phoenix did not question his attendance at all.

You know, there were many wizards at the scene whom he had never met, such as Nymphadora Tonks and the steady and calm Kingsley Shacklebolt. After thinking about it, Rowling felt that this was most likely a deliberate arrangement by Dumbledore...

Headmaster Dumbledore pondered for a moment, then suddenly reached out from his sleeve and pulled out an elder wand. Then, he muttered something, and a powerful explosive spell instantly gushed out from the tip of the wand, hitting the locket in the middle of the table.

Dumbledore, who was originally full of confidence, now frowned. He saw that the locket was still intact after withstanding such a fierce attack!

Seeing this scene, not only did Headmaster Dumbledore hesitate, but even the experienced wizards around him were surprised. Rowling, who had been observing everything silently, was completely aroused by his curiosity.

After a long while, Headmaster Dumbledore came back to his senses. He thought for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Generally speaking, it is not difficult to destroy an evil thing like a Horcrux.

But this locket left by Salazar Slytherin is obviously very strange and unique. "After saying this, Headmaster Dumbledore fell into deep thought again, and soon turned his attention to Rowling!

Rowling naturally knew that he still had the Sword of Gryffindor in his hand. You know, this sword is not just an ordinary weapon, but it came from the hands of Godric Gryffindor, and it was carefully crafted by those elves who are skilled in forging!

In the blink of an eye, Rowling's hand flashed with light, and the sword of Gryffindor appeared in his palm. Speaking of which, since the thrilling battle with Voldemort, Rowling has never taken out the sword again, but has kept it in his body to nurture it.

However, at this moment, when the sword reappeared, Rowling was extremely surprised. There were faint red lights flickering on the blade of Gryffindor. Thinking back to the last time he used it, due to the emergency, he had no time to check it carefully.

But now that he had calmed down and observed carefully, Rowling understood the reason. The close connection between him and the Sword of Gryffindor conveyed a message to him: the reason why this sword was so powerful was not only because of the special material used, but more importantly, it had a magical ability - the ability to continuously absorb and attach various special powers to it.

The faint red glow in front of him was caused by the blood of the basilisk being absorbed by the sword when Harry Potter killed it. You know, the blood of the basilisk that has survived for a thousand years is poisonous! The fusion of the two makes the sword of Gryffindor even more corrosive.

Rowling understood instantly, as if Hermione Granger had used the fangs of this basilisk to destroy the Hufflepuff gold cup! No wonder the basilisk in his space ring had never decayed, it turned out to be highly poisonous. Fortunately, he did not taste the so-called snake meat like other time travelers...
