Chapter 215

A wooden signpost sticking out of the thorn bush on the left side of the path.

Felwood stepped forward, read the road sign, and then walked quickly along the path.

The three followed.

As she passed the wooden signpost, Hermione looked up at its two arrows. The one who pointed to where they came from said: Greater Hangleton, 5 miles. Pointing in the direction Ogden was going it read: Little Hangleton, 1 mile.

They walked for a while in the direction of Little Hangleton, seeing nothing else but the high hedgerows on either side, and the great blue summer sky overhead.

Then, the path turned to the left and descended steeply down the hillside, so they suddenly and unexpectedly found a valley that appeared in front of them.

In the valley they saw a village, undoubtedly Little Hangleton, between two steep hills, with the church and the cemetery clearly visible. On the hillside opposite the valley, there is a large house surrounded by a large green grass.

Felwood trotted involuntarily because the downhill was too steep. Ye Ting took bigger steps, Hermione and Furong also stepped up to follow.

The path turned to the right, and when they turned that curve, Felwood flickered at the hem of his dress coat, and he disappeared through a gap in the fence.

0300 Exploring Gaunt's Old House

Ye Ting took the girls and followed him to a narrow dirt road. The hedgerows on both sides were taller and denser than those they had just passed by.

The dirt road was winding, potholed, and rock-strewn, as steep as the path just now, and seemed to lead to a small patch of dark woods below.

Sure enough, the dirt road came into contact with the dwarf forest before he went far, Felwood stopped, and the three of them stopped behind him.

Although the sky was clear and cloudless, the ancient trees overhead cast a cool, dark, thick shadow, and it took a few seconds for their eyes to catch a house half-hidden among the tangled trees.

Those big trees grow next to the house, and the trees block all the light and the valley below.

The house is apparently uninhabited: the walls are covered with moss, many of the tiles on the roof have fallen off, and the rafters inside are exposed here and there. All around the house were thick nettles, tall nettles up to the windows, which were very small and thick with old grime.

"This is Gaunt's old house." Felwood turned back and said to the three of them, "Do you need me to accompany you to go in and see?"

"No, just come here," Ye Ting said, "your mission is over, you can go back."

"Then, I wish you good luck." Felwood heard the words, as if relieved, he took out his wand, as if he wanted to Apparate immediately.

It seems that Ye Ting has a lot of prestige for these Aurors.

However, Ye Ting first pointed at Felwood with his wand.

"Everything is forgotten."

A white light flashed at the tip of Ye Ting's "Spell Weaver", and the next moment, Felwood's eyes became dull, he mechanically looked at the three, and then continued to use Apparition.

With only a "crack", the amnesiac Auror disappeared before their eyes.

"In order to prevent the Dark Lord from knowing that we have been here, I can only do this." Ye Ting saw the suspicious eyes of the two girls, shrugged, and explained, "Penello will also do the same when investigating. Deal with it this way.”

Then, the three of them looked at the decaying mansion in front of them.

Hermione and Fleur took out their wands, knowing that if there were any Horcruxes here, Voldemort would never forget to set a trap here.

Furong raised her cane first, aimed at the stained door, and waved it gently.

"Araho Cave is open."

The door was suddenly opened, and at the same time, a red light struck... But Hermione, who had been prepared long ago, calmly recited the Iron Armor Mantra, blocking all the threats from the red light to them.

The red light seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall, and a violent explosion occurred. After the explosion, everything around it, especially the bushes and grass, turned gray.

"What a terrible curse." Hermione looked down and concluded, "These plants are dead."

"It's the Dark Lord after all." Furong looked at the deadly scene around her and gave a cold war, "We have to be more careful."

The three walked slowly into the house.

There was chaos in the house, and all the furniture and furnishings were in pieces.

Such a bad and messy hut probably won't arouse anyone's desire to search except the homeless.

Suddenly, everywhere in the house, as if disturbed by their footsteps, there was a sound everywhere.

"It's a human voice," Hermione said after listening for a while. "Are there people in this room?"

However, the people who appeared before them were not people--or not people in the conventional sense--these "people" were men, women, children, looking very pale, wearing tattered clothes, all open With sunken, visionless eyes, his movements were so rigid that he looked like a corpse.

"This is the Inferi!" Hermione came to a conclusion after looking at it for a while.

"What is that?" Furong took a few steps back in disgust by these corpse-like guys, "I thought they were ghosts!"

"An Inferi is a corpse awakened by the Dark Wizard's spell. It has no life, but is used like a puppet to carry out the Wizard's orders," explained Hermione.

"I read it in a dark magic book, Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Defense, that they are afraid of fire and light, and like the dark and damp."

"Really? That means we're going to use the Fire Charm to deal with them." Fleur raised her wand and looked at these guys coming out of the house, eager to try, "I don't want them to touch my new clothes. Woolen cloth."

"No! The Fire Charm will burn the whole house down," Hermione stopped. "We'll have to use something safer."

Therefore, they had to use the whole body binding spell, petrification spell, split spell, etc. on these corpses.

These corpses stared at them with their empty, foggy eyes, their withered hands stretched out to the three living people, and rushed towards them one after another, but they were hit by spells one by one, some could not move, fell to the ground, some directly turned into pieces.

Although there are a large number of Infernal corpses, this house is too narrow, and their numerical advantage cannot be exerted very well.

The two girls stood at the door, each time they had to deal with up to three Infernal corpses, and they calmly kept firing spells to take care of these terrifying, but not actually powerful, guards one by one.

Soon, there were rigid corpses and fragments lying on the ground.

"It's disgusting," Furong followed Ye Ting, raising her legs in disgust and straddling the wreckage on the ground, "Why do you think the Dark Lord arranges these guys here? They are too weak, even a slightly capable wizard can do it. deal with them."

"Probably to consume the magic power of the invaders." Hermione analyzed, "You can't use fire spells or mass destruction spells in the wooden house, then the invaders will have to deal with these Yin corpses one by one, so many Yin corpses. Corpse, for ordinary wizards, it consumes a lot of magic power, so how can they have enough energy to deal with the next level?"

However, this move had absolutely no effect on Ye Ting and Hermione who had excess magic power.

However, when Fleur heard Hermione's analysis, she noticed that she had indeed consumed too much magic power.

The next moment, Ye Ting threw a small glass bottle at her, filled with blue potion.

Furong recognized it immediately. This was exactly what Ye Ting gave out as one of the spoils for defeating monsters in the final of the Triwizard Tournament, which could replenish his magic power.

At that time, when Furong saw this potion for the first time, she thought it was amazing. Since ancient times, no potionist in the wizarding world has been able to invent a potion that replenishes magic power. Everyone can only rely on their own rest to restore magic power.

She also wondered why Ye Ting released so many strange and unreasonable spoils in the game.

However, she realized later that Ye Ting was just using them as experiments to try out his new invention.

However, now this blue potion should be the finished product after the experiment.

Without thinking, she opened the cork and drank it.
