Chapter 357 Bounty Hunter
Xie Lin exhaled softly. He gently massaged the temples on both sides of his head with his fingers, closed his eyes, and lay back against the back of the chair with a tired look on his face to rest.
At this time, there was a faint tingling sensation in his eyes that were still cooling.
The effect of the profound meaning of "Absolute Dominance" is indeed unbelievable. Even Selwyn, who is full of hatred and wary, can have his personality and memory rewritten directly by Schelling, turning his sworn enemy into a sworn follower.
However, everything has a price - the more powerful and domineering the magic is, the more dangerous its reaction will be.
This mystery takes too much of a toll on one's energy and energy.
Although this is not the first time Schelling has used "Absolute Dominance", he usually only uses it to implant fragments of memories, or to plant an idea in the spiritual world of the subject, thereby affecting the subject. thoughts and ideas.
If you want to turn a person's long life trajectory into memory fragments and reconstruct the combination according to your own imagination, this level of loss cannot be underestimated for Schelling.
Even though Xie Lin's mental power has reached the pinnacle of the world's wizarding world today, with his mental power and eye power level, if he wants to avoid permanent damage to his pupils, he will be able to do it within a month at most. This skill can only be performed in this way once.
This is why, despite having such a unique skill, he has only used this secret twice so far - once against Rita Skeeter, who is proficient in Occlumency, and the other time against today's Trovin... Selwyn.
Both men were indispensable in Schelling's plan and occupied extremely important roles.
Rita is the talent Schelling needs most to be able to run the intelligence network, while Selwyn is the standard-bearer for the bloodline extremists in the pure-blood family.
Conquering two people is basically equivalent to occupying a whole new level in the intelligence network and pure-blood family.
As for the other Death Eaters, they obviously did not have enough qualifications to let Xie Lin perform this secret, so Xie Lin chose to make complicated preparations in advance, and spent a lot of effort to defeat their minds with fear, and finally Conquer them with words, rather than directly brainwashing and subjugating them with "absolute mastery" in a simple and easy way.
At this moment, there was only Peter Pettigrew left in the Panlong Dungeon. At this time, his face looked a little trembling, because he didn't know what Xie Lin's purpose was in letting everyone leave but leaving him alone here.
Schelling still kept his eyes closed and said: "Peter Pettigrew..."
"My subordinate is here," Peter Pettigrew hurriedly responded, "Master, what are your orders?"
"Do you know why I keep you here?" Xie Lin raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Peter Pettigrew's expression was confused and a little nervous. He shook his head and said, "Please forgive my ignorance, and please let me know clearly."
Xie Lin raised two fingers of his left hand and said softly: "There are two main things keeping you here. First, what is Voldemort's Horcrux?" After saying that, he suddenly opened his eyes, his deep eyes twinkling. With a sharp edge.
Peter Pettigrew did not expect Schelling to ask such a question, and was stunned for a moment. A disgusting, terrifying, and cruel memory gradually came to mind...
After a while, he came back to his senses and said hesitantly: "It was his yew wand. It was lost in the Potter's house. I later found it and gave it to him..."
It's a magic wand!
A gleam flashed in Xie Lin's eyes. Xie Lin had actually thought about this possibility, but it was hard for him to believe that Voldemort would make this choice. After all, the wand itself is spiritual. If it is made into a wand, it will produce many unknown things. Variety.
Now that Voldemort's Horcrux can be confirmed, he will be more confident in dealing with him next time.
"The second thing is the Dark Queen Morgan Le Fay's stunt. I seem to have seen you perform it before... when you were dealing with Sirius and Lupin at Hogwarts... it was the black hole that released a black hole that could swallow other magic. magic……"
"Yes, that move is called the Demon-Swallowing Vortex. It is the core secret of the Avalon School. It can swallow all magic when practiced to a high and deep level..." After saying that, he waved his wand lightly, and a black mist erupted. , quickly spinning clockwise in the air, forming a small vortex.
"What an amazing magic!" Xie Lin stood up, walked closer to where the vortex was, looked at and observed the magic very carefully, and exclaimed with great admiration.
After careful observation, he found that this secret did not directly swallow up magic and break it down into magic power, but was more like some kind of cross-space magic that transferred magic directly to an alien space.
The alien space mentioned here refers to a space similar to the "empty space" linked between the disappearing cabinet and the disappearing cabinet. It does not directly belong to this world.
Although Xie Lin also knows similar magic, the exclusive secret "Moon and Star Shift" he learned from space magic is a skill that can transfer the enemy's attack to other places, but "Demon Swallowing Vortex" has a mysterious ability. The suction force can suck everything around into the black hole.
The version cast by Peter Pettigrew was an obviously weakened version, with only a faint suction force attached to it, but Xie Lin clearly remembered that the black hole cast by Morgan Le Fay, Barbarossa, and Voldemort was like a universe. The giant beast in the middle, its strong suction force makes it impossible for everything around it to escape and swallows them all.
"Tell me everything you know about this magic!" Schelling said immediately.
"Yes," Peter Pettigrew began to explain in detail: "First, the magic power must be precisely controlled within..."
[The secret magic of the Shadow of the Demon Dragon "Demon Swallowing Vortex" is learned! 】
An hour passed, and everything was over.
The next step is to arrange Peter Pettigrew's place.
Although Xie Lin is currently in short supply of intelligence, management, politics, and business personnel, Peter Pettigrew is not good at these, and has no experience in this area, and is obviously not suitable for these positions.
The only skill worth mentioning is that he can transform into a mouse through Animagus-this skill greatly facilitates his lifestyle of hiding and fleeing, and then through communication with other mice, he has some advantages in finding lost treasures and tracking down the whereabouts of hidden people.
Of course-
Xie Lin knows that Peter Pettigrew is cowardly and is better at escaping, hiding, and saving his life than fighting. In fact, his Animagus is the most suitable for concealment, stealth, and assassination in actual combat.
Moreover, Peter Pettigrew had just inherited the Hand of Evil, and needed a period of adaptation to become proficient in casting spells. Fighting and killing could also enhance the power of the Hand of Evil. The fastest way to adapt to the Hand of Evil and gain strength was to participate in the most brutal actual combat and initiate the most bloody killing.
Schelling pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered the organization of the "Bounty Hunters Guild" - this organization was a bit like a mercenary organization. As long as they were willing to pay enough, there would be people willing to do any job, including stealing, kidnapping, murder, tracking, etc., and there was almost no moral code to speak of.
Gunnar Grimson in the second Fantastic Beasts movie was a bounty hunter who specialized in hunting dangerous magical animals. He was extremely mean and unscrupulous, and was especially cruel to magical animals. He was at the opposite extreme from Newt Scamander, who loved magical animals. There were many grudges between the two. Unfortunately, due to the length of the movie, his role was greatly cut by the director, and even the clip of how he died was deleted. This was something that Schelling, who was a HP fan in his previous life, regretted.
The duelist guild "Silver Spear" that has some friendship with Schelling actually has a similar organization inside, called "Silver Shield", which is similar in nature to the "Adventurer Guild" often mentioned in the Muggle world and can accept commissions from the outside world, but this organization has a much higher moral bottom line and is limited to activities such as vigilance, escort, bodyguard, and ruins exploration. If you insist on saying that there is some activity that is somewhat on the edge of the law, it is only tomb robbing.
Of course, the two mercenary organizations "Bounty Hunter Guild" and "Silver Shield" actually have quite a lot of overlapping functions, so some members, even core members, hold memberships on both sides at the same time, such as "Killer", one of the four wizard masters of Silver Spear, is one of the best among them.
Although Xie Lin had no dealings with the Bounty Hunter Guild, and did not know where their base was, or how to contact them, Xie Lin had connections - he believed that as long as he informed Silver Spear, Silver Spear would be able to help him act as an introducer, so that Peter Pettigrew could join the Bounty Hunter Guild and participate in various dangerous and brutal missions, preferably join a powerful team, and take the opportunity to accumulate new connections.
Thinking of this, Xie Lin immediately waved his hand and put the True Dragon Throne into his pocket space, and then led Peter Pettigrew away from the Coiling Dragon Dungeon. (End of this chapter)
