"Are you free tonight?"
As soon as he heard Dumbledore's words, Mike's pouring of alcohol stopped.
This time, instead of continuing to drink as he did last time, he decisively put down the bottle in his hand, frowned and looked at Dumbledore and asked:
"What's the matter with you?"
"About the Horcrux, I seem to have found some clues." Dumbledore took the red wine that Mike put down and poured himself a glass. "And since you have a lot of experience in destroying Horcrux, I plan to invite You go with me tonight."
"Let me guess, did you find Chris?"
Dumbledore took a sip of the red wine, did not speak, but shook his head slightly.
When Mike saw this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, because he had guessed it. Dumbledore said that the Horcrux he found should be the Gunter ring made of resurrection stone!
It's just that Dumbledore went alone in the original book. Why did he invite himself this time?
Is it really as he said, just because of his rich experience in removing souls?
Mike was lost in thought for a while.
But Dumbledore obviously didn’t intend to give Mike too much time to think. He drank the red wine in the glass in two or three sips, then looked at Mike’s slightly tangled expression and said:
"It seems that you are reluctant to go. Then forget it, this thing is indeed too dangerous for you."
After speaking, Dumbledore turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait!"
Mike's voice added a smile to Dumbledore's face, who had already turned around. He stopped and turned his head to look at Mike again.
"Huh!" Mike exhaled a heavy breath, and said with some nasty fun, "I think I still have a better say in eliminating Horcruxes, so I'll go with you, or maybe You will be seriously injured!"
Dumbledore didn't pay much attention to Mike's nasty remarks. He laughed for a while, clinked glasses at Mike and turned away.
And it wasn't until Dumbledore walked far away that his voice rang in Mike's ears.
"At 8 o'clock tonight, we will gather at the entrance of the manor after the wedding."
Mike raised his eyebrows and continued to think about Dumbledore's purpose for inviting him to go with him, while instinctively with his right hand, he wanted to get the glass of red wine he had leftover.
However, he caught a gap, and it was until this time that he realized that his wine had long been taken away by Dumbledore!
……
Lupin and Tonks’ wedding went smoothly except for the ‘simple’ etiquette. After the host announced that the two had officially become husband and wife, the whole wedding was officially started.
The tables and chairs that were originally placed in the garden were all removed by the staff and replaced with the same pure white dining table with a variety of pre-prepared wines and delicacies.
These are all arranged by Mike. In addition to these, there are two house elves on the lawn not far away making barbecues. On their side, there are a large number of musical instruments piled up. At this time, the magic applied on these musical instruments has been completely triggered, and they are slowly floating in the air and playing by themselves.
The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became cheerful. Ron, who hadn't eaten anything since getting up in the morning, couldn't help it anymore, screamed and rushed towards the table full of food.
Seeing Ron’s embarrassed look with chicken legs and steak, the two Weasley brothers closed their eyes in pain. Mike felt that they would really want to dye their hair black if they could, because they could act like this. Don't know Ron anymore.
As Ron’s best friend, Harry obviously wanted to join this'fight', but it was a pity that Black next to him was firmly holding his shoulders, which made his plan to fight alongside Ron in his heart. Dead belly.
At the same time, as today's protagonists, Lupin and Tonks also walked off the platform and entered the feast.
Black, who was still restraining Harry from making him rude, regained his nature after seeing Lupin, and started drinking crazy with Lupin.
Perhaps he was afraid that he would not be drunk by Lupin alone, he even pulled the two brothers George and Fred!
Seeing how they were drinking, Mr. Weasley was also greedy, but the sight of Mrs. Weasley who was not far away from time to time still made him dispel this idea.
No way, George and Fred’s reception in France has completely conquered Mrs. Weasley. Now the two brothers and Mr. Weasley are not the same treatment at home!
On the other side, Tonks was not idle either.
At this time, she was pulling Hermione and Mrs. Weasley to talk to the side. Because of the distance, no one could hear their conversation.
But judging from Hermione and the blushing face and the sight of Mike from time to time, it should be a pink topic.
This banquet lasted from afternoon to night, and after a whole afternoon of fighting, Black’s goal was achieved-Lupin became a dead dog drunk, and he couldn’t even bark!
But the three brothers Black and Weasley were not feeling well, and they were not much better than Lupin at the moment.
Lupin and the Weasley brothers, who were drunk, were helped by Mrs. Weasley and Tonks into the room to rest as soon as the banquet ended.
As for Blake, I don’t know if it was revenge for his forcing the Weasley brothers and Lupin to drink. Both Mrs. Weasley and Tonks instinctively ignored him, which caused him to be alone after the banquet. Lying on the lawn.
Mike understands this deeply. You know that Black ruined Tonks and Lupin’s wedding night!
But he didn't lie down for long. Harry soon found his godfather's horror after eating and bracing, so he held up his enlarged belly and used magic to send him into the villa.
So far, the wedding of Lupin and Tonks has come to a successful conclusion, and at this time Mike and Dumbledore also quietly met at the entrance of the manor.
"Good evening, Principal Dumbledore."
Mike in a pure black combat uniform greeted Dumbledore in front of him.
"Oh, good evening."
Dumbledore looked at Mike's combat uniform with a strange look. You must know that the weather tonight is as good as the day. The white crescent moon hangs high in the sky, throwing bright moonlight downward.
With its help, tonight is brighter than usual.
Originally in such an environment, the pure black clothes would not only fail to hide their whereabouts, but would be more obvious.
But this is not the case with Mike's combat uniform. It distorts the surrounding light like a strange magic power, making Mike's whole person look hazy.
Noting Dumbledore’s eyes, Mike tugged at his clothes and joked:
"Do you want it? I still have some alive. I can give you one."
"Really?" Dumbledore's eyes lit up, and he smiled and said, "Thank you so much. My size is..."
Looking at Dumbledore who was excitedly starting to report his size, Mike's expression was a bit sluggish.
Heaven and earth conscience, he was really joking just now!
In his opinion, things like combat uniforms should be just dispensable toys for wizards of Dumbledore's level, and they don't have any effect at all!
I didn't expect Dumbledore to be so playful!
"Ahem! Okay, I get it." Mike concealed his embarrassment with a cough, and then changed the subject, "Uh, it's getting late, should we set off?"
"Oh! Look at my memory! Then let's go now."
Dumbledore said suddenly, and then stretched out his hand to Mike.
While looking at Dumbledore's big wrinkled hands, Mike hesitated a bit and finally reached out and grabbed them.
"Are you ready?" Dumbledore said with a smile, "Apparition!"
As Dumbledore chanted the spell, a twisted black hole appeared quietly, sucking in Mike and Dumbledore!
At the same time, a similar black hole appeared on a hillside thousands of miles away, and with a burst of crackling, two human figures appeared in the clearing!
I have to say that Dumbledore has quite advanced knowledge in Apparition and Apparition. After landing, Mike didn't feel any discomfort at all.
It’s just that this did not make Mike relax his vigilance. On the contrary, Mike took out the blackthorn wand and began to observe the surrounding environment as soon as he got down to the ground.
With the help of moonlight, Mike can clearly see that he is on a hillside at this time, and Mike instinctively feels something is wrong.
You must know that it is July, when everything is growing.
The hillsides like this in the past should have been covered by various trees.
But now on this hillside, let alone trees, there is not even a single grass on the hillside, and the whole hillside is dead silent, which makes people feel a kind of strong anxiety.
Mike grabbed the wand in his hand again, and slowly raised his head.
And when he looked up, a barren and run-down villa appeared in front of him.
Mike's pupils shrank sharply, almost instinctively muttering to himself:
"Old Gunter House!"
As soon as he said this, Dumbledore, who was still looking at Mike with a smile, immediately became serious. He frowned and asked:
"Do you know here?"
"Of course!" Mike, who knew that he had missed his mouth, did not panic, explained, "The place where Voldemort was resurrected was near here, and I also investigated here afterwards. You see, it is the cemetery!"
Following the direction Mike was pointing, Dumbledore saw the scorched earth cemetery, and the expression on his face finally became better.
Seeing this, Mike quickly changed the subject and said:
"You brought me here because you think Voldemort has hidden a Horcrux in this house?"
"That's right."
"But..." Mike pretended to be puzzled and said, "Why? Does this have anything to do with Voldemort?"
Dumbledore was silent, he looked at Mike, and then slowly said after a long time:
"That's a long story. I'll talk to you slowly after this matter is over. Now, our first task is to solve the Horcrux inside."
"Ok."
Mike nodded and said yes, and when Dumbledore saw it, he stopped talking, and led Mike to the old Gunter house.
The Old House of Gunter is a rather dilapidated villa, or in other words, the name shed is more suitable for it, because it is too shabby at this time.
Its walls were not full of moss, and many tiles on the roof fell off, exposing the rafters inside.
There are dense nettles growing around the house. These tall nettles grow to the window, covering the small windows that are covered with thick old dirt.
This is very different from other places on the hillside. You must know that except for the old house of Gunter, all other places on the hillside are deserted!
Mike not only felt some doubts.
It’s just that his doubts disappeared soon after he stood in Gunter’s old house, because he suddenly discovered that the entire Gunter’s house in front of him was wrapped in a special magic enchantment, and this The enchantment still contains a strong magical power, but this magical power gives people an indescribable ominous, making Mike feel a little uncomfortable.
"Did you also find out?" Dumbledore said with a smile, "This is a powerful black magic enchantment, which can continuously absorb all the vitality around it and convert it into magic power to maintain itself and other spells. I only perceive the existence of this enchantment before guessing that there is a Horcrux hidden here, otherwise this powerful enchantment would have no meaning for its existence~EbookFREE.me~Listening to Dumbledore’s explanation, Mike's eyes lit up suddenly.
He is very interested in this enchantment spell. As long as one is placed in the secret realm of Freemasonry, the various facilities in Freemasonry can be fully automated!
As for this enchantment belongs to black magic?
Mike doesn't care at all!
Dumbledore obviously also guessed Mike's mind. He shook his eyebrows and added:
"But I have never seen such a spell anywhere else, so if my guess is correct, it should be a self-made spell, and now there are only a handful of people in this world who can release this spell."
Hearing this, Mike's expression suddenly became indifferent, and walked towards the gate of Gunter's old house without saying a word.
It wasn't until after he walked to the front that Mike suddenly discovered that there was still a dead snake nailed to the door of Gunter's old house, and there was an ominous wave of magical power on it.
Mike stopped instinctively. Although the specific function of this spell is not known yet, there is no doubt that this should be a warning spell used to resist foreign enemies.
Dumbledore smiled and crossed Mike, reaching out and pushing towards the door.
Following his movements, Mike clearly saw that the mysterious magic entwined on the wooden door seemed to be crushed by an invisible force, and instantly turned into fly ash and disappeared!
"Crunchy!~"
The old wooden door opened, and Dumbledore made a request to Mike.
