Chapter 602 Fox's Trace, Should We Go Meet Grindelwald? (1/2)
Chapter 602 Fox's trace, should we go see Grindelwald?
"I didn't know you would make such a contract with him!" Dumbledore's portrait said weakly, "Besides, from what I know about you, you won't sit and wait for death, and you must have made sufficient preparations for future battles."
"Haha! You really think highly of me.
I am prepared, but I am far from ready." Aaron said bluntly, counting on his fingers: "I have to find a way to control the time and place of the decisive battle, and I have to find a way to reduce the number of enemies I face. I also have to win over trustworthy allies, and try to strengthen my own strength as much as possible, etc., etc., I have to consider these carefully."
"Still as rigorous as before." Snape raised his eyebrows.
"No way, a little carelessness could lead to eternal damnation.
I'm sure I won't die, but I don't want to be killed by a detail." Aaron said patiently, then looked at Dumbledore's portrait, "The reason why I'm so miserable now is largely due to you, but there is a way for you to compensate me a little."
"What?"
Aaron tapped the desk lightly, and said meaningfully, "Principal Dumbledore, don't you think there's something missing on this desk?"
"No!"
"Don't play dumb with me, where is Fawkes?"
"Ah this..."
"I need its feathers, tears, and even blood, but the phoenix disappeared after your funeral, I think you can definitely find it."
Dumbledore's portrait hesitated for a while, "The phoenix usually returns to its owner after his death. Wild."
"To get to the point, I am not unaware of this knowledge in writing."
"When Dumbledore's family members need help, the phoenix will appear in time."
"Aberforth Dumbledore?"
"Do you know him?"
"Then you have to thank Rita Skeeter, the gossip reporter who dug up many of your dark histories, including your relationship with your brother Aberforth.
And your mother Kendra Dumbledore and your sister Ariana Dumbledore, Rita Skeeter wrote about their causes of death in the newspaper!"
Dumbledore's portrait flashed a clear sullen look on his face. He didn't mind how reporters evaluated him in the Daily Prophet, whether good or bad, and people who knew and trusted him would not change their views on him because of a newspaper.
But this does not mean that he doesn't mind others talking about his family, which is a taboo he is unwilling to mention.
"I should have taught her a profound lesson."
"It's too late to regret now, isn't it?" Aaron shrugged and said, "Let's get back to the point. Where is Aberforth Dumbledore?"
"He's in Hogsmeade Village."
"The Hog's Head?"
"You know?"
"Well... this is a long story. I've been to the Hog's Head once before!
The owner there is 70% similar to you, especially his eyes are exactly the same. He looks at least a hundred years old, his magic is very powerful, and he also raises a few goats."
"There are indeed some irreparable cracks in my relationship with him, but I know he still recognizes me as his brother in his heart." Dumbledore's portrait said ashamedly, "I asked him to guide Harry when necessary, and he didn't refuse."
"That's very thoughtful." Snape said sarcastically.
"I thought you would be grateful to me, Severus."
"Humph! You should be grateful indeed. I still don't know how many insurances you have prepared for him."
"To be exact, none.
No one can help Harry directly. You can't, Aaron can't, and Aberforth can't."
"I don't care about these." Aaron said unhappily, "Fawkes will go to Aberforth, right?"
"Not necessarily." Dumbledore's portrait shook his head, "Aberforth Dumbledore and the Phoenix do have some inseparable relationship, but he is not Fawkes's master.
In addition to Aberforth, there is another person who will be favored by the Phoenix."
"Who?"
"Grindelwald, Gellert Grindelwald."
Hearing this name, Aaron blinked blankly, "Haha, Professor Dumbledore, are you kidding me?"
Dumbledore's portrait remained silent, indicating his attitude.
"Okay, I understand." Aaron took a deep breath, "Grindelwald is still in Nurmengard, right!"
"Yes, his life is coming to an end, and Fawkes is likely to accompany him for the last period of time.
If you want to tame a phoenix, it's best before Grindelwald dies."
"Don't go." Snape said to Aaron seriously, "Although he has been imprisoned for decades, he is no less dangerous than the Dark Lord."
Aaron nodded slightly, but he would not say what he was thinking.
"Tell me before you go to Harry and the others, I will try my best to cover for you at school."
"Forget it! Professor Snape.
I won't reveal any flaws, you can rest assured about that. "Aaron said calmly, "Come to my dormitory in three days, and I will tell you my plan."
"What is your plan?" Snape asked doubtfully.
"It will take a while to explain, but it will definitely surprise you.
Dumbledore's plan revolves around the prophecy, but my plan... just as Dumbledore guessed, is prepared for the final battle."
Snape thought for a moment, "If you have nothing to do, go back first.
By the way, if someone asks you, just say that your detention tonight is to copy the school rules ten times."
"Got it." Aaron waved his hand and turned to walk out the door.
After the oak door closed again, Snape took a deep breath, turned around and looked at Dumbledore's portrait, "Do you want him to find Grindelwald?"
"I just gave him a choice, whether to go to Nurmengard or not is up to him to decide."
"I don't understand. "Snape said loudly, "You should know how dangerous Grindelwald is better than anyone else."
"He is safe." Dumbledore's portrait said calmly, "The Gaius family hides too many secrets, and just a small part is enough to shock the whole world.
And Grindelwald and I are the ones who know that small part. Believe me, he will not do anything to the heir of the Gaius family."
"Don't you think you are too confident?" Snape said speechlessly, "Grindelwald is more powerful, smarter, and more bewitching than the mysterious man. His words are not credible at all."
"But this time is different. He knows I am going to die and will never lie to me.
I hope Aaron can go and meet him. If he goes, he will receive my last relic. If he doesn't go, there will be no loss. "
Dumbledore's portrait said meaningfully, not noticing that Phineas, who was pretending to sleep, was listening to their conversation.
Back in the dormitory, Aaron put Abe down and lay on the bed.
Just now, he talked a lot with Dumbledore and Professor Snape, which made him more clear about his future plans.
Helping Harry is necessary, only through him can he find the Hufflepuff gold cup as soon as possible, but his own plan cannot be left behind, and only by working on both can it be foolproof.
"System, open the personal panel. ”
[Host: Aaron Gaius]
[Magic power: main body: 10260, primary grand mage; thought body 10260, primary grand mage; total 20520 (intermediate grand mage, rare in the magic world)]
[Talent: once in a lifetime (magic power increases by 4 points per day, main body increases by 2 points, thought body increases by 2 points)]
[Items: resurrection potion (can revive any creature that dies within an hour), magic carpet, meditation basin, Captain Jack's compass...]
[Magic points: 2060]
"Alas! There is still one and a half months to collect 2,500 magic points!
After leaving Hogwarts, this time will probably have to be added another month. "Aaron sighed lightly, and then opened the task panel.
[Find and destroy Voldemort's Horcruxes, 1000 magic points for each Horcrux found, 500 magic points for each Horcrux destroyed;
The reward for completing the task will be issued directly until all Horcruxes are destroyed; there is no penalty for mission failure; accepted
Note: Horcruxes found: Ravenclaw's Diadem, Slytherin's Locket, Harry Potter
Horcruxes to be destroyed: Ravenclaw's Diadem, Slytherin's Locket, Harry Potter, Hufflepuff's Gold Cup, Nagini]
[Hogwarts' Asylum;
Protect students who are harmed by Death Eaters, 100 magic points for each student protected;
The reward for completing the task will be issued directly, and there is no penalty for mission failure; do you accept?]
[Meet the previous generation of Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald;
500 magic points for completing the task; no penalty for mission failure; do you accept?]
"Hiss! "
Seeing the second system task, Aaron couldn't help but gasp and sat up directly from the bed.
"System, you made me feel what human warmth is. I really love you."
"Host, don't be so corny."
"No, no, no, this is not corny, this is touching, and it is a heartfelt word from the heart." Aaron was ecstatic, "It's really rare to see such a rich task panel."
"This system has mentioned to the host before that system tasks are closely related to the things the host comes into contact with.
If the host stays at home and doesn't care about the world, basically no tasks will be triggered."
"It's my own vision that is wrong.
A frog in the well, sitting in the well and looking at the sky, please forgive me." Aaron said apologetically. This second task gave him a huge surprise, and the reward was several times more generous than the first task.
He didn't count how many students Hogwarts has now, but there are still three or four hundred. Even if half of them are cut, the reward for the second task is 20,000 magic points.
He had never seen such an exaggerated check. Although it had not been cashed, it did not prevent him from changing his attitude towards the system in a positive direction.
20,000 magic points! When had he ever been so rich?
With this "wealth" support, he might still be a little short of becoming the God of Magic, but he would definitely become a Holy Mage, and he could also collect more Dark Spirit Stones, Twelve Talismans, Ghost Masks, etc.
The system seemed to understand what Aaron was thinking, and after hesitating for a while, it poured cold water on his excitement.
"Ahem! Host, don't be too happy too soon.
The students who were harmed by the Death Eaters described in the second task have standards."
"Standards?" Aaron's heart skipped a beat, "What do you mean? Explain clearly."
"It means that only students who were seriously harmed by Amycus Carrow or Alecto Carrow meet the standards. If they were only harmed by ordinary evil curses, they are not protected.
So, host, don't think this is an opportunity to reach the top in one step."
Aaron:......
I thought I could get at least 20,000 magic points, but now it seems that I may have to halve, halve, and halve again. In the end, it would be good to have 2,000 magic points left.
"That... I take back what I said before.
The system did make me feel the warmth of the world, but it's not enough to say the word 'love'."
"This system knows that the host is still so realistic."
Aaron laughed and disdained to explain.
Twenty thousand magic points directly wiped out a zero, and his mood fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley. The big gap made him not swear, which was already well-mannered.
Aaron managed to calm down and chose to accept the second task.
As for the third task, he hesitated and did not make a choice.
Five hundred magic points will have to meet the previous generation of the Dark Lord. The risk and benefit do not seem to be proportional!
In his opinion, Grindelwald is not comparable to Voldemort. There are rumors that he has lost all his magic power, but rumors... just treat it as a joke.
If he takes back the magic power of the thought body, he is confident that he can fight Voldemort in the strongest state, but if the opponent is Grindelwald, then there is a question mark.
What's more, the thought body is still very useful to him, and he will never take it back before the decisive battle.
......
Shenming Temple.
The thought body lies on the chair, and the consciousness is immersed in the spiritual space.
As the soul power is consumed, a large area of the sky of this illusory secret realm is divided.
Various gorgeous and mysterious colors spread out layer by layer and slowly dispersed in different directions, perfectly blending with lakes, forests, snow-capped mountains, peaks, waterfalls, sea of clouds, etc., forming an ultimate beauty under the night sky.
"The paradise on earth is nothing more than this.
It's a pity that some creatures are missing, which is inevitably a pity."
At this time, a black shadow ninja came over, holding Phineas's photo frame in his hand.
"It seems that there is important information." The thought body smiled.
"Yes, that's right, it's related to Dumbledore's relics."
"I know that, he gave Harry a golden snitch, gave Hermione a storybook, and gave Ron a deluminator, but I don't care about these things."
"You don't care?"
"Heh!" The thought body smiled contemptuously, "No matter what secrets are hidden in his relics, the ultimate goal is just to guide Harry Potter to defeat Voldemort.
This may be of great significance to them, but to me it's just chicken ribs, tasteless to eat, and a pity to throw away.
To be honest, I wish they would spend more time on those relics."
Phineas smacked his lips, not knowing what to say.
While others are still looking for ways to defeat the BOSS, they are already preparing for the final decisive battle.
This is a gap in the pattern, and it is normal to look down on those relics.
