The undead is a good enemy, more like a human than a troll, Hermione unknowingly completed the last step of basic training, which is to slaughter a living corpse that looks almost exactly the same as a living.
If you kill the zombies today, you can kill people like Voldemort next time. They all look so pale and evil anyway.
The curve of this mental construction is very smooth under the control of Death Knell.
"Huh, it's done."
Some panting Hermione dragged a good corpse to the two men. The magic ending curse dispelled the dark magic in the corpse and turned it back into a normal corpse without any movement. She was angry. The body was placed in front of them:
"Please see if this is your brother."
Only then did Sirius remember that he had been led astray by Professor Wilson. He went to chat, and almost forgot his purpose when he came. It was really embarrassing.
He looked down at the corpse in front of him. Like other corpses, they had pale and deformed faces, soaking in the water for too long and causing the smell of decay. Coupled with the water plants entangled in the skin, it looked completely complete. Monster.
But he still reached for the inside pocket of the suit that the corpse was wearing, which was indeed a good cloth with magic.
He knew his mother. Before going crazy, she always ordered the best clothes for her family. If the corpse is really Regulus, there will be the family crest of the Black family at the seam of the inner pocket.. ....
Reaching out, groping, and pausing, time seemed to stagnate, and then he ushered in a collapse-like emotional catharsis.
I don’t know what he found. Su Ming, who was squatting beside him with cigarettes and wine in one hand, suddenly saw Sirius crying. This guy also hugged the slimy corpse and kissed, pressed his face, howling. Regulus' name...
"Alas!"
He hurriedly stood up and went to hide by Hermione's side. Although it is understandable that the accumulation of emotions requires catharsis, it is certainly worth celebrating to retrieve the bodies of his dead relatives.
But can you choose a more restrained method of celebration?
Even if Sirius is going to sleep with Regulus's corpse tonight, Su Ming can't control it, but the premise is not to let other people see it! Take it home and tidy it up, make it clean and miss it, isn't it?
But it was obvious that Hermione had a different idea from him. Hermione, who was completely clean, showed a lovely smile. Seeing the reunion of the Black brothers, she said with some emotion: "It's so touching. The great affection is always difficult. Describe in words."
"It seems that I have to tell you about life and death. I don't want you to become like my cousin and give me all the stuff of the underworld..."
Professor Wilson put the cigarette in his mouth and rubbed his apprentice's head.
.....................................
Sirius still has the ability to control himself. He just cried bitterly for a while and realized that his behavior was not appropriate. He ordered Kreacher to take his brother's body home, and then he wiped his eyes and walked to the death knell.
"Thank you, Professor Wilson. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know all this, let alone meet him again."
"Sorrow." Su Ming took out a pack of tissues and threw it to him, then turned his gaze to the small island in the distance: "We should go drink the water below."
Kreacher had told the three people about everything here, including Voldemort's trap arrangement.
Voldemort placed a stone washbasin-like stand on the island, which was filled with a special potion. He threw the locket of one of the Horcruxes in it. The magic stipulated that he must drink the washbasin. Only the potion can be seen inside.
Except for the small tank prepared on the side, he couldn't even touch the stone platform with his hands. This was the inspiration he got from the goblet of fire.
Drinking this potion will make you very thirsty, lose your mind, and want to drink water involuntarily.
The only source of water here is the pool water with the corpse. If a person who is thirsty and delirious approaches the water and makes a noise and touches the water surface, the corpse will be dragged into the water and drowned.
In the early years, the Black family admired Voldemort very much and agreed with his pure-blood proposition, so that they sent their youngest son to Voldemort as a servant.
Where's Voldemort? It also needs the recognition of more nobles, and with the contact, he thinks Regulus is a loyal servant, except for being too soft-hearted, there is no other problem.
Trustworthy, worthy of Voldemort can ask him for the house elf Kreacher.
Voldemort wanted to test the magical protection of the Horcrux hideout, so he borrowed Kreacher and brought the elf to the cave.
He ordered it to drink the potion to test the effect. The house elf obeyed, and then he was so thirsty that he grabbed his heart and lungs and rolled all over the floor.
Seeing Kreacher's painful look, Voldemort just laughed, leaving Kreacher in the cave to fend for himself, and left by himself.
Because he saw that the elf was so thirsty that he had crawled to the shore to drink water and was entangled in the corpse. In his opinion, it was dead.
‘It’s not your business, hahaha...’
Voldemort just laughed wildly and disappeared into the darkness.
But he has never seen house elves face-to-face. This kind of creature is too humble and too common. He doesn’t know that the magic that he stays in the cave to prevent apparition does not apply to elves. Elf magic is completely different. A system.
Kreacher was dragged into the water in a trance. Master Regulus said when he went out:
‘I’ll go home after I have done things for the adults. ’
He activated the teleportation technique belonging to the elf, went home and drank clean water, and told Regulus what had happened.
Regulus heard that Voldemort would sacrifice for the little elves in the faithful's house. He realized that all Death Eaters were only tools to the Dark Lord, and he finally decided not to serve that person anymore.
But he also knew that Death Eaters could not quit, and his family would not allow him to quit.
So he made a fake locket, then followed Kreacher back to the cave, drank the potion himself, and replaced the genuine one with the fake.
He chose to commit suicide and ordered Kreacher to leave with the locket, keep secret from the family, and find a way to destroy the locket.
It’s a pity that until today, Kreacher still has no way of accomplishing this task. Slytherin’s locket is indestructible. Kreacher tried magic, tried biting, and tried to put it on Muggle rails, but it didn’t work .
"Regulus is a good person. If he returns here and orders Kreacher to drink the endless potion and go home, he can completely replace it without dying."
Su Ming landed on the island with some emotion, looking at the shining stone platform.
Hermione shook her head. She understood the cause of the tragedy: "He couldn't do that. At the time, betraying Voldemort was already a great courage, not to mention that all his family wanted him to face the black lady..... The demon king works, the pressure at home is also unbearable, his heart died earlier."
Sirius's breathing became heavy: "What he should have done, the Death Eater elf can drink this potion a few more times, and let my brother come back alive with the locket and go to Dumbledore. , Go find me!"
"Betrayed in person? Then Voldemort would kill all your relatives like the Potter family." Su Ming rolled his eyes. Sirius is the problem, and the blood is on his head and his intelligence is lost: "I mean. It means that Regulus can change the locket without knowing it, and find a chance to fake death in front of Voldemort~EbookFREE.me~ Anyway, the Dark Lord will not check his toolman on the battlefield. Life and death, Regulus can hide in South America or Africa."
"He died in 1979. If he had heard the prophecy, he would have known that Voldemort would have failed if he had to survive for another two years." Hermione recalled history. Although Voldemort was in full swing at the time, it is impossible for anyone to be undefeated forever: "He still doesn't believe in prophecies and suffers from insufficient intelligence, and he is so proud that he didn't even think about asking others to help him."
"He is the best child...I would rather have killed my whole family because of this." Sirius stretched out his hand to the silver cup and said with a green face: "This is equal to us. The brothers dragged dozens of Death Eaters to together, and we made a lot of money!"
The water droplets above the cave fell to the ground, and there was an imperceptible noise in the darkness. Su Ming took off his mask and looked at Hermione beside him with some speechlessness.
His gaze contained deep meaning, as if he was silently saying, ‘See it? My apprentice, this one in front of you is a typical Gryffindor baby...’
