Chapter 31 The Dark Mark

After leaving the Black Lake, Tom did not return to the common room, but went straight to the Two Broomsticks pub in Hogsmeade.

Since the school has been on vacation, many foreign workers have recently been expanding and renovating the school. Coupled with the arrival of teachers and students from Durmstrang, the school has temporarily canceled its previous high-pressure policy, and several secret passages have been opened one after another. , there are even several Thestral carriages going to Hogsmeade Village every day for commuting.

Tom left the school in a big way and headed for Hogsmeade. No one stopped him on the way, and he didn't encounter any inspection.

After hearing that the school had relaxed its management two days ago, Tom was still quite worried, but he heard from Minsk and others who had returned from the trip that the school had only relaxed the security around the school and Hogsmeade Village, and focused on peripheral security and inspections. Becomes more stringent, generally showing a state of looseness on the inside and tightness on the outside.

Because it was morning, there was no one in the Two Broomsticks bar. The young bar owner sat bored at the bar and took a nap. When he saw Tom coming in, the owner said hello casually and opened the secret compartment behind the bar.

"Our little overseer is here!? Yesterday's work progress was a bit slow, and only a small part of the space was opened up. Recently, the Ministry of Magic's inspection has been a bit strict. The underground expansion is illegal. I only dare to let the workers go in for construction after closing at night! We will let them leave before dawn in the morning..."

"It's okay, don't worry! Just finish the expansion before the end of the summer vacation!" Tom nodded in response and was about to go underground.

At this moment, the boss stopped Tom and said mysteriously: "By the way, we found a secret room during the construction last night. The door of the secret room was painted with a rose pattern of 'Rose Moon', and there was a strong Magical fluctuations prevent us from entering, you'd better go and have a look..."

"Secret room?" Tom murmured, and hurriedly got into the secret passage behind the bar and walked underground.

Not long after, Tom crossed the empty dance floor, walked into the room behind the dance floor, passed through a secret passage behind the mural in the corner of the room, and finally came to a vast underground cave.

This underground cave is the scope of this expansion. According to the plan, everyone plans to open up a space the size of two football fields here. However, the expansion work is only halfway through, and it has almost expanded a space the size of a football field.

Half of it has been opened in just ten days, which is fast, but after the expansion space is completed, it will still take time to build the supporting facilities. It must be completed before the end of the summer vacation, so the construction period is still somewhat tight.

Looking at the expanded space, Tom nodded. He was still very satisfied with the quality of the current project.

But when Tom saw the sudden stone door in the northwest corner, Tom frowned slightly.

The stone gate is nearly five meters high in a square shape and at least five or six meters wide. The emblem of the 'Rose Moon' is engraved on the gate, and the entire gate is covered with rich silver magic lines.

Tom tried to push the door, but it didn't move at all. He tried several lock-picking magics, but still no response.

"I've never heard that there is a secret room here... What is going on? Do you want to ask Professor Raululus?" Tom thought about it and finally gave up and went to find Raululus: "Forget it, still Let’s talk to Weijie about the situation first!”

As he spoke, Tom planned to look elsewhere. However, when Tom turned around, he suddenly felt a burning pain in his left wrist.

Tom looked down and saw that the 'moonlight mark' on his wrist was glowing with silvery pink.

Tom's 'Moonlight Mark' was planted for him by Qin Weijie, which is a second-level 'golden pink rose'.

Originally, Tom was just a non-staff member of 'Rose Moon', and logically he should not inherit the 'Moonlight Mark', but Qin Weijie was worried that the 'power of death' in Tom's body would affect Tom's sanity, and the 'Moonlight Mark' is a kind of inheritance magic. , can suppress the negative forces in the body.

So despite Qin Weijie's repeated requests and Tom's repeated refusals, Qin Weijie finally planted the 'Moonlight Mark' on the bed when Tom was asleep one night.

The 'Moonlight Seal' had a special reaction when facing this stone door. Tom was a little confused for a moment. After pondering for a moment, Tom decided to study the stone door again.

"Tom! Tom!! Please reply when you receive it! Please reply when you receive it!" Qin Weijie's voice suddenly sounded in Tom's arms.

Tom was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly took out a double-sided mirror from his pocket. Qin Weijie's big face in the mirror was almost touching the mirror. Qin Weijie's breathing seemed to be rapid, and he didn't know what he was doing.

"What's wrong? What are you doing? The screen keeps shaking. It makes me have a headache!"

"I have no choice but to run for my life every day. I feel like I'm playing Temple Escape..." Qin Weijie looked helpless.

Tom covered his face with a wry smile and sighed: "Who did you provoke again? Why do you have to run for your life every time you go out!?"

"Hua Tsai! I want to ask too! Why does Mao run for his life every time? Maybe that's just the character... There is a bunch of cyber lunatics chasing me behind. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Let's talk about the key points first..."

"Point? What point?"

"What the hell are you doing? Why does the 'Moonlight Mark' suddenly cause a burning sensation? It hurts your dad to death!!" Qin Weijie yelled.

Tom broke out in a cold sweat... not elegant at all!

Speechless, Tom still explained the matter of 'Shimen' to Qin Weijie.

"Shimen? Give me a picture, I'm Kangkang!"

Tom pointed the double-sided mirror at the stone door. In order to let Qin Weijie see it more clearly, Tom showed as many details as possible.

However, after seeing the Shimen, Qin Weijie was silent. It was not until Tom showed the whole picture of the Shimen that he still didn't hear Qin Weijie's response. Only then did Tom turn the mirror to himself. Only then did he see Qin Weijie's dark face and silence. Silent.

Tom: "Did you find anything?"

"Can you push it away?"

"Can't push it away..."

"Did you use the lock-picking magic?"

“Everything has been used”

"Still not opened?"

"Yes, it can't be opened! I tried for a long time..." Tom explained.

At this time, Qin Weijie took a deep breath, calmed down, and then cursed: "F*ck! This is not a door! This is a stone monument! I'm going to fuck you like a big lightbulb! You didn't even look at him. If you can push the door open, you are my father!"

Tom: "..."

Is it so embarrassing? A large social death scene! Fortunately, Wei Jie is the only one who knows... In order to avoid embarrassment, we should silence Qin Weijie's big mouth! Hmm, this is a very mature idea...

Qin Weijie hurt Tom for five minutes before he slowly calmed down: "Go and research what this stone tablet is for..."

Tom nodded and stepped forward to study.

At first, Tom had no clue, but he accidentally smeared a rose petal with his finger. In an instant, Tom suddenly felt a burning sensation on his left wrist. When he looked down, he saw that the petal he had just smeared had disappeared.

"Eh... it's interesting!" Qin Weijie had seen Tom's movements clearly just now. At this time, Qin Weijie almost understood the purpose of this stone tablet: "This stone tablet should be able to modify the pattern of the 'Moonlight Mark'! Tom tried Add some elements to it.”

After listening to Qin Weijie's words, Tom also began to try to add his own thoughts. When Tom placed his hand on the stone tablet, his thoughts could be visualized, and he saw a beautiful little snake pattern appearing on a petal. At the same time, the pattern on his wrist Changes have also occurred on the 'Moonlight Seal'.

A delicate little snake lingers on a petal, looking extremely smart and delicate.

"Sure enough, it works!" Qin Weijie said excitedly, then turned around and looked behind him, and said to Tom in the double-sided mirror: "I have long wanted to change the pattern of the 'Moonlight Mark'. A bunch of big men have tattoos on their wrists. Roses are so girly! You should change the pattern, make it cool and cool, and preferably something that can scare others!

Damn it, those invincible cyber lunatics are catching up with me again, I'm going to run away for my life first, you can play by yourself... I'll contact you when I get to a safe place! "

With that said, Qin Weijie cut off the communication, leaving Tom alone with a confused face, muttering: "Be cool...be cool...and be scary..."

…

That evening, on the coast near Edinburgh, Scotland.

Qin Weijie threw out a brick and knocked out the last purple-robed bachelor from the Ordnance Department of the Omniscient Alchemy Society. He was panting from exhaustion.

Pierce was lying on the beach like a puddle of mud, breathing heavily: "You can obviously beat me, why do you have to run away every time!?"

"The younger ones came and the older ones came, and the older ones came and the older ones came. A novice like me who got a male protagonist script from Shuangwen but didn't have a male lead name should stop committing suicide and go around in circles with them. Leave everything aside so we can meet again in the future!" Qin Weijie said shamelessly.

"Why don't you let me kill them?" Pierce was very depressed. Every time Qin Weijie got tired of going around in circles, he would knock out one or two guys who wouldn't let go. But every time after being knocked unconscious, Pierce was killed by Qin Weijie when he wanted to hit him with a last hit. Was stopped.

"How come they are so murderous!? I can tell from their attitude towards me that they have no intention of killing me. At most, they want to take me back! Since they are not ready to fight to death, why bother killing me!" Qin Weijie shrugged shrug.

Pierce said anxiously: "But! But! The Omniscient Alchemy Society... they just sacrificed more than 200 people from a village not long ago!"

"Yes, boss! I'm not a saint! Holy Mother! There are a lot of injustices in this world. You and I can't change the whole world with the power of one person... We are all ordinary people, why should we live like a mediocre person!" Qin Weijie said blankly. Looking at Pierce: "All I can do is let all the damn people I meet die! For example, those guys who sacrificed the entire village. I will not be merciful to them. I will punish the murderers severely, but I will not use partiality." Almost all of them were beaten to death with a stick.

It is difficult to define justice and evil, and people's hearts are very complicated... Can you guarantee that there are no countless evil people in the so-called official organization of the Ministry of Magic? You can't guarantee it! And you can’t be sure that the ‘Omniscient Alchemy Society’ must be full of bastards. Some people may be forced by life, and some may have too paranoid pursuits.

Forget it, saying so much makes me preach here. Each person has one idea. I can't influence your idea, but now that I have a big fist, you have to listen to me! I won't kill you if you don't! You want to ask why? I'm happy, sir! "

Pierce was speechless, not because he was convinced by Qin Weijie's theory, but as Qin Weijie said, whoever has a big fist will listen to him, mainly because he can't beat him! If he could really beat him, why would he be Qin Weijie’s GPS?

And Pierce wants to ask weakly, what is GPS?

"Laopi, take a break. We'll continue our journey in half an hour, heading for the University of St. Andrews!" Qin Weijie said as he sat casually on the ground and took out a lot of snacks from his retractable pocket and started to eat them.

After a short break, Qin Weijie remembered that he had been feeling a burning pain on his left wrist this afternoon, which gradually eased until the sun was about to set. It seemed that Tom had completed the new "Moonlight Mark".

"I wonder how Tom has modified it. I'm a little looking forward to it!" Qin Weijie rolled up his sleeves and looked down.

Then Qin Weijie screamed: "Fuck! Dark Mark! Tom, you are a ruthless person!!"
