Chapter 952: fear of death and greed

As June 24 approached, Albert's nerves began to tighten. Unlike Potter, the savior who gradually became more confident, Albert was not really interested in the third event of the Triwizard Tournament. , it should be said that he has no interest in risking his life to explore the maze.

Even if Albert knew that he could reap a lot of benefits after getting rid of the fake Moody in the third project, but the gains were often proportional to the gains. To complete the tasks on the panel, he needed to risk his life to solve the problem. A dangerous Death Eater.

After all, everyone is equal under the Avada Sombra.

Maybe it's because he has so many things he has never had in his previous life, and he has an open life, so Albert is afraid of losing everything he has now.

He found that he was actually more nervous than when he faced the basilisk and even other dangers a few years ago. He must know that he is fully prepared now, far from being comparable to when he faced dangers back then.

Maybe it is no longer suitable for you to seek wealth and risk, and being an old man is more suitable for yourself now!

Albert had laughed at himself deep down more than once, thinking that it was really funny that he was assigned to Gryffindor, he was not a brave person.

At least, Albert never considered himself brave.

Although Albert did not show any nervousness from the beginning to the end, since the beginning of June, he has been constantly checking his plans, and it can be seen that he is actually very anxious.

While the outcome of the third project is likely to go as planned, Abbott is still making more careful preparations to make sure he can get out of it if necessary.

Albert suddenly understood why so many people were afraid of death.

There are probably some things that can't be let go!

He is not the savior Harry Potter, let alone the courage to go from beginning to end. He even suspects that if the title of this book is not "Harry Potter", the grave of this iron-headed savior may grow long ago. grass.

Of course, it's pointless to complain about it now.

Beating Barty Jr. and winning the Triwizard Tournament is what Albert should prioritize now.

Focus on clearing the third item first, then move on to other things.

Looking at himself in the fire dragon suit in the full-length mirror, Albert reached out and patted his cheek, and muttered, "It doesn't really matter what the outcome is, I'll definitely survive anyway."

After all, he had predicted that he would marry Isobel.

If he died, of course it wouldn't be the case.

It's just that the third project still needs to be faced with 12 points of spirit.

The future seen in the crystal ball can also be changed.

There was a knock on the door, and Isobel pushed the door in and looked at Albert who was wearing the dragon suit suspiciously, wondering why Albert was wearing this suit.

Albert didn't pay attention to Isobel's suspicious gaze, but began to move his whole body to check whether the fire dragon suit would affect his next battle.

This time, the opponent is not a fire dragon, but a dark wizard. He had better make sure that he is flexible enough to avoid the magic spell used by fake Moody while taking Fuling.

As for resisting the spell with the powerful defense of the Fire Dragon Suit, it was only aimed at ordinary wizards, not the Death Eaters who wanted to kill him.

Of course, Fengya brand wizard clothing store sent back the fire dragon suit, intending to let this suit complete its final mission and share Albert's glory of winning the championship, not to let Albert's corpse wear it and be carried out of the labyrinth, Totally a laughing stock.

As long as Albert can wear this suit to win the championship, there will be a new set of fire dragon suits as a reward according to the style he likes.

Albert suspected that he would attract a wave of hatred from Voldemort after he appeared in the newspapers wearing this fire dragon suit and taking the uniformed little Barty out of the labyrinth.

This is not good news, it means that he has moved a few more places on the blacklist in Voldemort's heart.

"What happened to the house over there?" Albert asked suddenly.

"Not yet, I'm afraid I have to wait for a while." Isobel looked at Albert, who was moving, and asked slightly puzzled: "What's the matter, are you in a hurry?"

"After this semester, for safety reasons, I'm afraid we won't be able to show up again." Albert stopped moving his body and turned to the red-haired girl beside him, "I'm afraid you can only use a double-sided mirror to communicate with your family for the time being. Get in touch."

The double-sided mirror technology has been restored. Although it is not as easy to use as the previous double-sided mirror, it means that it can be sold at a higher profit.

"It seems that you are still hiding a lot of things from me!" Isobel didn't get angry, but stood there waiting for her boyfriend's explanation.

"The mysterious person is estimated to be resurrected, and I am probably the least popular type, and you are my girlfriend, everyone knows our relationship, for your safety, it is best for you to follow and hide. Choice." Albert's face was full of guilt and helplessness.

"Actually, you can tell me, there's no need to keep it all in your heart, I know you've been under a lot of pressure recently." Isobel didn't get angry because Albert was going to keep hiding it from himself, but just stared at him calmly. , However, this move gave Albert a lot of pressure.

"Okay, I'm probably implicated." Albert finally compromised under Isobel's watchful eyes. He has been under a lot of pressure recently, and he needs to find someone to tell his secrets, "Someone wants to attack Potter. , I think you should have guessed it."

"The third project's labyrinth is indeed a good place." Isobel quickly realized what was going on. The fact that Harry Potter became the fourth warrior was inherently weird, and someone wanted to do something about him. Not surprising.

"I am the most promising champion at present, and I have become an obstacle in the eyes of some people." Albert said helplessly, "I have a hunch that the guy's goal should not be to kill Potter, but to kill Potter. Take him away, as for the reason, I think it may be related to the resurrection of the mysterious man."

"What does it have to do with you when they plan to attack Potter?" Isobel asked with a smile.

It's just that the smile on the girl's face is a bit penetrating no matter how you look at it.

"Divert attention." Albert hesitated for a moment, he knew that this reason was not enough to convince Isobel, and then continued: "Of course, he also probably knew that I helped Dumbledore make some prophecies related to the mysterious man. , and Peter Pettigrew was once sent to Azkaban by me, he is also a comrade of the resurrected mysterious man, and it is not surprising that they want me to die."

"Of course, another reason is the combination of Muggle wizards and geniuses, and the hatred of the pure-bloods of Terra. I guess that the Death Eaters who were in hiding will want to find a chance to kill me when they return to their masters. "Albert's mood suddenly calmed down, "I'm going to take this opportunity to clean up the Death Eater hiding in Hogwarts and minimize all risks. We're dead to keep us safe."

"A duel of life and death?"

Isobel didn't care that Albert was going to kill a Death Eater. Although she didn't know why things turned out like this, it was able to make Albert be vigilant and act so uneasy. Obviously, this matter was very important. Danger.

"That's right,"

"Are you confident you can win?" Isobel asked with a frown.

"I'm more powerful than before." Albert muttered: "But you also know that the dark wizard always likes to throw the Avada Sombra. Although I'm fully prepared, I'm still a little worried about you."

Isobel was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand and hugged Albert: "I believe that you can solve any problem, just like you were able to defeat Ronald Smith in times of adversity, and now you have no reason to lose, and You promised to marry me next year."

"Of course." Albert kissed Isobel's cheek and said earnestly, "I never do anything I'm not sure about."

"Okay, you can tell me now, what made you willing to take such a big risk?" Isobel didn't think that Albert didn't know about the risks involved in this matter. Since he was willing to take risks, there must be bigger risks. benefit.

Albert's character, and even every place, she knew very well.

Presumably Dumbledore paid enough.

Although there were some errors with the results, Isobel's guess was not wrong.

"I was able to gain knowledge of Dumbledore."

"Mr. Lemay's knowledge is not enough for you?" Isobel's expression was a little complicated. Knowledge is precious, but... life is more precious.

"It's a good deal," Albert explained. "Anyway, I'm already enough to attract the hatred of pure-bloods. Most of those guys are Death Eaters who haven't been imprisoned in Azkaban. Disciple, since it is inevitable to be murdered when You-Know-Who is in power, it doesn’t really matter if you attract a little hatred. As long as we stay in a safe enough place to help and cheer, someone will take care of the rest of the trouble for us.”

Isobel knew that Albert did the right thing, and now he can only support him to continue.

"On the day of the third event of the Triwizard Tournament, my family will be invited to come and watch the game, and then you will come with them and help me take care of them by the way." Albert continued, "Wait for the Triwizard Tournament. When it's over, I intend to send them out of the UK immediately."

"I'll help you."

"You're so kind!" Albert took a deep breath.

"It's good to know." Isobel gently rubbed Albert's cheek, and then lightly kissed him on the forehead.

Sometimes, Albert even wanted to give up the mission and hide with Isobel to live his own life, but this idea was quickly suppressed, he knew that he was ready, and he also left himself behind , will not fail easily, and will not die easily.

More importantly, he wants more experience, more skill points, more valuable knowledge of all kinds, more power, and he wants more, more...

Greed is sometimes really an original sin.
