Chapter 572: Secret

I'm curious why Voldemort chose such a way to obtain immortality? Ryan once told me that this method is very flawed. After Professor Dumbledore told everyone that Voldemort had more than one Horcrux, Harry raised his own question .

Any other way? Dumbledore said after glancing at Ryan and Hermione. But other methods didn't fit his bill.

After finishing speaking, Dumbledore straightened up and explained: You know, Voldemort actually grew up in the Muggle world. Don't look at him claiming to be a descendant of Slytherin. In fact, he didn't get it from his family. How many resources. Therefore, the source of his knowledge is very scattered, including the knowledge explained by the professors in the classroom and the supplementary lessons after class, as well as the knowledge he obtained from his classmates by various means, and part of the self-study from the school library. In this case, Voldemort was not as knowledgeable in his school days as he was later.

Ryan and the others were all attracted by what Dumbledore said at this time. The headmaster waved his hand and took a sip of a cup of hot tea, and then said, So for Voldemort in his student days, he wanted to avoid death. He can only choose the path of making Horcruxes. He is not unaware of the possible problems, but he thinks that he is a descendant of Slytherin, the chosen one. He will not be like those who made Horcruxes before Get caught up in those problems that way.

Besides, Voldemort is also an insecure person. He cannot allow his life to be pinned on something fragile. Just like if you use the Philosopher's Stone, you need to drink the elixir constantly. What if the Sorcerer's Stone is damaged or the elixir of life is stolen? Voldemort needs a way of immortality with the highest degree of freedom.

Wizards seem to have only a few methods of immortality. Ryan thought of this after listening to Dumbledore's words. The method he now masters comes from other worlds, and the method Hermione mastered was learned by Ryan. After combining the methods of other worlds with other methods of this world, she was guided to obtain them under some unexpected circumstances. All in all, there aren't that many paths to immortality in the Harry Potter world.

While Ryan was thinking, Dumbledore began to summarize. Now with this key memory, we are closer than anyone to the secret of how to destroy Voldemort. Just now you heard him say: Isn't it better to divide a few dollars, it will make you stronger... Seven Isn't it the most magical number...' Isn't seven the most magical number. Yes, I think splitting the soul into seven pieces appealed to Voldemort.

Seven horcruxes? Harry's expression became very ugly, and several portraits on the wall also made voices of shock and indignation, so they could be - hidden - buried or invisible anywhere in the world -

It's not that bad. Dumbledore smiled. First of all, Harry, not seven horcruxes, but six. The seventh part of the soul, whatever its condition, is still in his newly crafted body of black magic, the former part of the soul during his years of exile. Existing in ghostly form, which you should have seen in first year. Without it, he would not have himself. This seventh part of the soul would be the last thing anyone who wanted to kill Voldemort had to attack - inside him that piece of

Then he still has six Horcruxes. Harry asked anxiously. How can we find them?

Actually, we have destroyed most of the Horcruxes. Dumbledore said, and then opened the drawer on the desk and took out one gold box after another. But I personally think you'd better sign an Unbreakable Vow with me now, because there is a mysterious connection between Voldemort and you, and our destruction of Horcruxes cannot be known to him.

—No problem, your consideration is indeed perfect. Harry stretched out his hand and shook Dumbledore's hand, I hope that terrible thing in my fifth grade will not happen again.

soon,

Under the witness of Ryan, Professor Dumbledore signed an unbreakable oath with Harry to ensure that Harry would not reveal what he saw today, especially not being peeped by Voldemort from his brain.

Okay, this is our previous achievement. After signing the Unbreakable Oath, Dumbledore opened the gold boxes one by one. After Voldemort's first Horcrux was destroyed, I realized he had made more than one, so I started looking. Thankfully, as his teacher and enemy for years, I have been I tried my best to understand Voldemort's past life, traveled many places, and searched for his traces. Finally, I traced some clues. The ring you see now is the second Horcrux I found-

Then Dumbledore introduced the locket, the crown and the gold cup in turn. It's just that when he introduced it, he was a little vague about the source of the Horcruxes, ignoring Ryan's contribution in finding and destroying these Horcruxes.

Then, we just need to find the last Horcrux, right? Harry looked at the five Horcruxes on the table and turned relaxed. But what would that Horcrux look like? If it's an old newspaper, an empty tin can, or a battered leather boot, I don't think we'll be able to find it.

No, no, you're thinking of the Portkey, Harry. The Portkey requires an ordinary object whose shape is easily overlooked to avoid being taken by mistake, and Voldemort's Horcrux is definitely not like this. Dumbledore said seriously, As far as I know, he has always considered himself a noble blood running in his veins, superior to other people. His pride, his sense of superiority, his determination to claim his amazing place in the history of magic will not Allow him to put his soul on those inconspicuous things. So he will definitely find a container for his soul that he thinks is worthy of his noble soul. You can get it from these horcruxes that I have destroyed See that tendency.

Slytherin's relic, Ravenclaw's relic, Hufflepuff's relic, could Voldemort's last Horcrux be Gryffindor's relic? Harry looked at the open boxes on the table. something asked.

Probably not. As far as I know, the only relics of Gryffindor are now well preserved in the castle of Hogwarts. Even in this office. Dumbledore stood up and walked from the side He removed the Sorting Hat from the table, and then took out a ruby-studded sword from the hat. The sword of Gryffindor, the sword that every true Gryffindor can pull out of his hat.

Then what do you think Voldemort's last Horcrux is? Harry gave up after thinking for a while, and asked Dumbledore this question directly.

I've suspected many things, but recently I've had a vague deduction, said Dumbledore. I think I know what the sixth Horcrux is. Genie's behavior has been noticed for some time, I don't know what you will say.

Snake? Harry looked surprised, Can living things be used as Horcruxes? Ryan told me before that those Horcruxes in history are often just some magical props, and it is very difficult to use living creatures as Horcruxes. Risky behavior.

Ryan is right. Dumbledore said with a glance at Ryan. Because it is very risky to entrust a part of your soul to something that can move and think on its own. According to my guess, Voldemort was going to make the last Horcrux when he went to your house to kill you. Judging, Voldemort's choice of murder targets when making Horcruxes is very special to him. Of course you are such a target. He believes that if he kills you, he will eliminate the danger suggested by the prophecy. He believes that in this way he will The world is invincible. I think he must be planning to use your death as his last Horcrux.

He failed, as we all know. But in his comeback years ago he killed an old Muggle man with a Nagini, and maybe that's when he thought of turning the snake into his last Horcrux. .Because the snake is the symbol of Slytherin, and this snake is extraordinarily powerful. At the same time, his ability to control the snake is also extraordinary.

So we just need to kill the snake, and then we can undo the so-called immortality of Voldemort and completely defeat him? Harry asked excitedly.

Very good, a concise and accurate summary, the current situation is like this. Dumbledore nodded in approval. Without the Horcruxes, Voldemort is a mortal man with a broken soul. But don't forget that although his soul is broken beyond repair, his brain and magic are still intact. Even without Horcruxes, killing a wizard like Voldemort still requires supernatural powers. abilities and talents.”

But I believe I will be able to defeat him. Harry clenched his fists when he said this.

Then I wish that everything you said can become a reality. Well, I think it's very late, Harry, you can go back to rest first. Ryan, you and Hermione stay. I have some recent news about I need to talk to you about the production of alchemy props, said Dumbledore.
