Chapter 1488 Mission and the Third Memory

Tsk tsk, that tone doesn't sound like what Slughorn would say to Riddle.

In other words, in addition to hiding some of the more important memories, Slughorn also falsified and fabricated the second half of this memory.

A few seconds later, the three returned to Dumbledore's office again.

Harry seemed a little dazed. He looked at Ivan, then turned his head to look at Dumbledore who was sitting back behind the table, but couldn't figure out what was going on.

Dumbledore had just said that this was his most important memory, but he couldn't see why it mattered. Of course, the sudden white mist, and the fact that no one seemed to notice it, was strange, but otherwise nothing seemed to happen, except that Riddle asked a question that went unanswered.

"You may have noticed that this memory has been falsified." Dumbledore said bluntly without going around in circles, "Professor Slughorn falsified his own memory, and he gave me a false memory. "

"Faltered memories? Why would he do that?" Harry couldn't help asking.

"I think he was ashamed of the memory, so he falsified it to make himself more respectable, and erased the parts he didn't want me to see. It was a bad falsification, which was a good thing. The real memory is still underneath."

"Professor, is this memory about the Horcrux?" Ivan interrupted and asked.

"Yes, an important memory about Horcruxes." Dumbledore said with interest, "We have known for a long time that Riddle wanted to make Horcruxes, and he thought that he could obtain eternal life in this way. In fact, in his By the time he took the ring and returned to Hogwarts, he had managed to create a Horcrux, but the Horcrux was an uncontrolled accident. I spoke to him, and Voldemort thought he was a nuisance, before So I still keep him, nothing more than wanting to study something out of it..."

"Then did he succeed?" Ivan asked, knowing that the one Dumbledore said later was referring to the fifteen-year-old Riddle.

"No!" Dumbledore said, "So, Voldemort turned to Slughorn for advice on how to make Horcruxes. He should have found some content from the book, but it is not comprehensive, and there are still some details that need to be confirmed. "

"For example, the number of Horcruxes that can be made..." Ai Wen said.

"A very keen idea, Ivan. The specific number of Horcruxes is one of the important things we need to figure out. After all, from what we have so far, Voldemort has made many Horcruxes. Riddle's diary , Slytherin's locket, Ravenclaw's diadem, fiend statue, and this ring because of an accidental appearance." Dumbledore said, his bright eyes glanced quickly at Harry, and then back to Alvin. On the tattoo, "As I said before, he has the habit of collecting loot. We have found a lot of Horcruxes so far, but certainly not all of them. We must confirm the final number of Horcruxes."

"What is the limit of the number of Horcruxes that one person can make? How many times can the soul be split?"

"Theoretically, it is infinite, there is no limit to the number, but no one can do this, because it requires unimaginable evil. How much pain is inflicted when splitting the soul, the soul itself will suffer the same pain. Dumbledore said, "But Voldemort is obviously not a normal person, so we can't judge him by general standards. In fact, I want to assign you a task for the memory we just saw. I hope you will find ways to expose Professor Slughorn's true memory and find out what Riddle said to him, this will undoubtedly be our most critical information."

Obtaining Slughorn's real memory was no easy feat.

Of course Ivan knew that Voldemort finally made seven Horcruxes after consulting Professor Slughorn, but he couldn't guarantee that this was Voldemort's final number of Horcruxes. That guy is obviously crazy, who knows what he will do after cooperating with the evil god.

Splitting the soul is impossible for most people, but for Voldemort, it is as simple as eating and breathing.

How much Slughorn's memories will help now is anyone's guess...

But it's better to know something than to have no clues at all.

"Professor, if you want to get the memory, can't you use Legilimency or Veritaserum?" Harry asked.

"Unlikely, Harry, Professor Slughorn is a very capable wizard, and he will be able to prevent these two tricks and other magic. His Occlusion is much better than poor Morfin, and since I forced him to After he gave me this distorted memory, it's no wonder he didn't carry the antidote for Veritaserum with him." Dumbledore said gently, "I think it's a good idea to try to force the truth from Professor Slughorn. Stupid, does more harm than good, I don't want him leaving Hogwarts. We're going to take a softer approach, thankfully he has his weaknesses like all of us and I'm sure you are the ones who can break through his defenses .Especially you, Harry, Slughorn is obviously more interested in you than he is on guard against Ivan, you can easily gain his trust and let him meet your request and willingly hand over his memory You have to know that it is very important to get the real memory, how important it is, you can only know after seeing the real thing. Well, this is the second memory, and we have two more memories to see. Next this One flashback is what happened the night Alvin and I found the ring, and my conversation with Riddle."

"The conversation with Riddle?" Harry still didn't understand what Dumbledore said.

He followed Ivan into the Pensieve again, and this time, they returned to the Gaunt family's cabin again.

However, compared with last time, this place has become ruins, leaving only ruins.

Dumbledore's memories didn't start from the beginning. He concealed the experience of being bewildered by the magic left on the ring by the Sorcerer's Stone Voldemort, and it started directly with the fifteen-year-old Riddle coming out to communicate with Ivan.

Harry looked in surprise at Riddle who suddenly appeared, and Ivan, Dumbledore and his conversation.

Unbelievable, it never occurred to him that the ring on Dumbledore's right hand was that Horcrux.

No, he knew it was a Horcrux, but he thought it was a destroyed Horcrux, but he didn't expect it to be intact.

Half an hour later, the three returned to Dumbledore's office again, and Harry watched Dumbledore put the ring on his right hand with apprehension.

"Fortunately, we found this ring and had the opportunity to communicate face-to-face with the fifteen-year-old Riddle inside, which will be of great help to our future plans." Dumbledore said, seemingly unaware of Harry's Gaze, "Next, I will show you another crucial memory, which is what happened after Riddle graduated from Hogwarts, that is, in this memory, there is hidden information about the home of the house elves... ..."
