Chapter 822 Blood of the Phoenix!
In the evening, Ivan stepped out of the principal's office with a dark face.
Behind him, the ferocious stone beast sank slowly, making dull sounds.
Looking back at the closed stone door, Ivan couldn't help but sigh. As expected, Dumbledore simply couldn't accept his idea.
Or maybe I can’t accept that I gathered people, killed people, and abused black magic in the name of justice...
Ivan knew very well how many crimes he had committed. If he was tried by an arbitration tribunal, he estimated that he would have to stay in Azkaban for the rest of his life.
Dumbledore didn't take action on the spot when he was in the principal's office, just because this was Hogwarts. With their strength, if they chose to fight here, they would definitely cause immeasurable damage.
Not to mention that it's not the Christmas holiday yet, and there are hundreds of teachers and students in the castle. It would be bad if someone is attracted by the magic wave of the battle, causing accidental injury.
This is not what Dumbledore wants to see, and it is also not in line with Ivan's wishes.
So the duel was naturally postponed until the Christmas holidays. In addition, they also needed to find a place where they would not be disturbed as a battlefield...
"What are you thinking about? Dumbledore?" Ivan walked slowly in the corridor of the castle, recalling the scene of their conversation in the principal's office just now, feeling vaguely strange.
Dumbledore actually told him all about Grindelwald's plan to dominate the world, and he told him in great detail. This was obviously very unreasonable.
If you just want to warn yourself, there is no need to go to this point.
Isn't he worried that he will replicate Grindelwald's actions in the future and start a war between Muggles and wizards again?
Ivan frowned, and then turned his attention to the two glass bottles held in his left hand, which Dumbledore gave him before leaving the principal's office.
There were wisps of white smoke floating in one of the glass bottles. As a master of Legilimency, Ivan could certainly tell that this was a memory thread, and it was most likely related to his father.
The other glass bottle is filled with red blood. If you look carefully, you can see that the blood exudes a light golden fluorescence.
This is the blood of the Phoenix!
At first, Ivan couldn't quite understand why the white wizard would give this thing to him, but when he thought about what the other party said, he somewhat understood it.
Dumbledore is an extremely contradictory person. On the one hand, he has witnessed the rise of Grindelwald and Voldemort, and does not want a third Dark Lord to appear in the wizarding world.
On the other hand, as Dumbledore himself said, he is very talented and is the most likely person in hundreds of years to break the barrier between wizards and Muggles.
Killing yourself would be equivalent to cutting off the hope of change in the magical world...
It was probably out of such conflicting feelings that the other party handed this precious Phoenix blood into his hands.
The meaning is also obvious. Dumbledore believes that his strength is very powerful and cannot be matched by Ivan now, so he needs a piece of Phoenix blood to make up for the gap and try to make the battle evenly matched instead of a one-sided crushing.
"You're really confident..." Ivan murmured solemnly.
Since Dumbledore had met Nott and used magic to sort out the memories in his mind, it proves that the white wizard must have known that he "easily" defeated Voldemort.
Under such intimidation, Dumbledore still believed that his strength still needed to be improved. This confidence made Ivan somewhat uneasy, and he even thought about whether to simply find a place to avoid it, maybe for ten and a half days. Within months, Dumbledore himself died...
Then there is no need to fight this fight!
…
Two days passed in an instant. After that conversation, Ivan didn't waste a moment. He didn't even sleep that night. He spent all his energy on brewing the blood fusion potion and even checked the memory threads. There is no time.
After all, the activity of the blood of magical creatures will gradually disappear after it is removed, so the production of the blood fusion potion must be completed within three days to ensure that the most perfect improvement effect can be achieved after the blood is fused.
As for the legendary points that are still lacking in melting blood, Ivan has already considered them.
After the battle that shocked the magical world, the escaped Dementors were recaptured by Aurors and were strictly guarded by a large number of elite law enforcers.
But now the entire Ministry of Magic is under Ivan's control, so taking advantage of the free time needed for the potion to settle, Ivan took the time to go to the place where the dementors were kept and chased them away with the shadow of the unicorn. After a whole night, all the dementors were finally convinced.
They had no choice but to surrender, firstly to save their lives, and secondly because other places could no longer accommodate them.
The wizards in the British magical world have lost patience with the dementors' repeated riots, and many senior officials have proposed to completely exterminate this evil species.
And their only savior, Voldemort, is now unable to save himself. In addition, the previous unfriendly cooperation caused some gaps between the two parties, so they must not be able to count on it.
At this time, the olive branch thrown by Ivan became the last life-saving straw.
While Ivan was persuading the dementors, a long-lost reminder sounded in his mind.
[Quest: Minions of Darkness (Completed)
Mission goal: Own an army of dementors (216/100)
Mission reward: three legendary points (already issued)
...]
"It's a pity that more legendary points were not added." Ivan glanced at the task bar and said with a little disappointment. He overcompleted the task, but the reward for the task did not increase accordingly.
However, Ivan had done similar experiments before, so he quickly accepted the result. Anyway, his goal had been achieved. The accumulated legendary points in the system column had changed from four to seven, which was enough for this purpose. Once the blood melted.
After achieving his goal, Ivan had no intention of crossing the river and burning the bridge. In the early morning, he issued an order to Pierce, who was still resting in bed, asking the other party to quickly send people to transport all the prisoners in the prison.
The dementors were almost overjoyed. Ever since they were captured by the Aurors, they had been locked deep underground with no way to get food. They had been hungry for several days, and now they were finally able to have a full meal. …
Looking at these crazy Dementors, Ivan couldn't help but feel a little funny. To a certain extent, these seemingly evil creatures are actually too innocent and easy to fool...
After casually giving a few words to the law enforcer responsible for guarding, Ivan did not spend any more time in the Ministry of Magic. He returned to Hogwarts before dawn in the morning, preparing to complete the last step of brewing the potion.
