Chapter 288: Fake Sorting Hat
"Finally, the fight is about to start. These days, He He Mu Mu is really disgusting."
For this dispute, many viewers are as happy to see it happen as Voldemort.
For some dark wizards and viewers with dark personalities, it is really disgusting that they are in a competitive relationship, but they help each other like a family.
And now the fight is finally about to start.
Krum, who has exchanged for the [Magic Circuit] and can become a ghost.
Fleur Delacour's magic fairy spirit, the sister of the greatest white wizard.
Harry Potter's magic fairy spirit, the mother of the savior.
The magic fairy spirit of Cedric Diggory, the winner of the first game, can transform into a young Voldemort of various magical creatures.
And the vice-principal of Hogwarts in this world, Professor of Transfiguration Minerva McGonagall.
Who will the Sorting Hat go to?
"Who are you?" Professor McGonagall frowned.
The mud sea wrapped around her has been shining with metallic luster under the effect of Transfiguration.
Sharp weapons condensed in it, making a clanging sound of metal collision.
The tip of the knife was raised towards the two enemies within her field of vision.
("That's it?" Ron was a little unbelievable, "What's the point of making some sharp weapons? It's just a matter of Transfiguration.")
(Once in extreme anger, he threw a dagger at Fred and George, but the two of them just waved their wands casually, and the dagger turned into a paper airplane.)
(Hermione was babble, for Ron's ignorance.)
(After calming down, she explained: "This is a sharp weapon transformed by Transfiguration. It is as difficult to transform as a magic prop. The specific difficulty depends on the level of Transfiguration of the caster.")
("What about the protection spell? I'll use an armor spell, or I'll just release the devil's fire." Ron said stiffly The neck refused to give up and dug its head to find the name of the spell. )
("Do you need me to tell you about the advanced application of Transfiguration?" Hermione rolled her eyes. "Attaching magic to the transformed object is the most common operation. As an extension of magic, it is not difficult.")
("This becomes a confrontation between magic and magic. Your magic is stronger than the Ironclad Charm or the Fiery Charm cast by the opponent, so you can naturally defeat the opponent.")
(The conversation between the two ended here, because Ariana began to attack Krum.)
The exquisite silver gauntlet with a hollow phoenix pattern appeared on Ariana's right wrist.
"[Nirvana, Immortal Fire Phoenix]"
The air instantly became hot and twisted.
The huge fire wings appeared behind her, making her look like a god who controls fire.
"How could it be?" Professor McGonagall couldn't believe that the aftermath alone made her body tremble.
She had only seen such power in Dumbledore.
The rising temperature forced her to subconsciously deform the mud sea again. The frost spread and evaporated into mist, making her look ethereal, and her slightly red skin returned to white.
What surprised her even more was the face.
After the Salem witch incident, the best way to judge the strength of an opponent is to look at the face.
The more beautiful, the older the witch is and the more powerful she is.
But the witch in front of her who caused a huge trend had a mediocre and boring face.
This may mean that the results of the Salem blood potion have been cracked and modified.
("Why does 'I' keep looking at Ariana's face? The Sorting Hat is the core of the [Mother and Son River]." Professor McGonagall was surprised.)
(Dumbledore saw the reason behind it, but he rejected this answer because he thought his sister was the cutest in the world.)
(So he skipped the first question.)
("Maybe she doesn't know that the Sorting Hat is the core of the [Mother and Son River].")
(This seems normal to him. Maybe Minerva thinks that he and she can talk about everything and have no secrets.)
(But this is not the case, just like Voldemort's real name. If it weren't for the second year, he would not have told her.)
Ariana didn't care about Professor McGonagall's attention.
In her eyes, only Krum could be considered his opponent.
Out of empathy, in order to avoid further damage to the headmaster's office, she flew high into the sky.
Krum, whose head was invisible, followed closely.
Riddle, who turned into a ball-escape bird, changed his form again and became a golden snitch-a magical creature with extremely fast flying speed. The golden snitch is its endangered replacement.
(The screen that was now divided into four sides is now divided into eight sides.)
(While Ariana and Riddle are flying away, Cedric is also reduced to a shadow, and Fleur turns into a fairy and flies away at the corner.)
(Dumbledore, who saw this scene, suddenly realized, "I understand. In this world, there is a distance limit between the Heroic Spirit and the real body.")
("Except for those who have the ability of split magic fairy weapons like Krum, when the limit distance is reached, the real body must move with the Heroic Spirit when it moves.")
("What a pity, Krum." Professor McGonagall sighed.)
(Because Krum, who was in the corridor on the eighth floor, did not realize this and did not stop Fleur and Cedric in time.)
(If they had stopped them, Ariana and Riddle would not have been able to fly away from the tower, and they would have had to face her in this world.)
And now, Professor McGonagall looked at the big hole in the principal's office, and the intruders who had turned into two small dots in the sky.
She could only shift her attention to the office.
With a wave of her hand, the dust on the ground condensed into blocks, and the principal's office was repaired as if time was reversed.
The white frost-covered mud sea that wrapped her also returned to the corridor and returned to its original state.
Harry and Krum were still standing by the entrance of the principal's office on the eighth floor.
("Has Harry given up?" Ron heard Dumbledore's words.)
(In the picture, Harry and his mother were still in the same place without moving.)
(As for Cedric and Fleur, under the high-speed movement, the live broadcast picture - that is, everything in front of them turned into afterimages.)
Harry did not give up, in fact, he was communicating with his mother.
"Mom, what do you mean -"
"Yes, it's just as you guessed."
"The sorting hat they are fighting for now is fake? Is it really there?"
"Still in the principal's office."
"What about me?"
"Don't move yet, Professor McGonagall is still looking for something missing in the office."
"Or just do it like Hagrid?"
Harry made this suggestion not because he thought Professor McGonagall might know where the real sorting hat is.
Instead, after the commotion, all classes were over and students were asked to return to the lounge.
He couldn't stay here for too long.
And
"Let's go back quickly, it's too dangerous here." Draco hugged Harry and said as he was about to pull him downstairs.
Ron was rarely jealous, but just looked at him reluctantly with Harry, "Let's go quickly, in case those dark wizards come back again."
At the same time, footsteps were coming from far away.
Judging from the breath, the professors were rushing here.
It was so chaotic, all this.
First, Krum hid it from them and sneaked into the office alone.
Fleur and Cedric found out but didn't inform him, and also sent out the Heroic Spirits to act.
If Ariana hadn't made such a scene, he and his mother wouldn't know.
At the moment, Ariana, who was speeding in the sky, also thought so.
She thought that only Krum was chasing her.
But the afterimage of Cedric that Fleur saw showed that Cedric's heroic spirit, Tom Riddle, had also been released, following her, and was still hiding in the dark, ready to reap the benefits.
This forced her, who was originally preparing to have a big fight with Krum, to retain her strength first and try to get rid of him with speed.
And Krum knew nothing about this.
In his eyes, there was only Ariana as his opponent.
"You don't have to waste your efforts anymore." Under the effect of the ghost body, Krum's speed exceeded the speed of sound, but there was no sonic boom.
He even processed his voice with the aftereffects, and transmitted it to Ariana's ears in the form of a line.
"You have to understand that my [Road] has been referenced by [Winged Fairy]. If I want, I can easily catch up with you."
Krum's words made Ariana's IQ return to the high ground.
With a huge explosion, Ariana's speed, which was moving at supersonic speed, instantly returned to zero and stopped in place.
"Are you finally ready to fight with real guns and bullets?" Seemingly Krum, but actually Fabian Prewett asked.
"Heroic spirits can share the [Road] of the contractor," Ariana said meaningfully, seemingly unrelated, "Fleur's [Road] not only has high-precision manipulation of magic power, but also has superb senses."
"What do you mean?" 'Krum' frowned.
"There is a third person hiding in the dark." Ariana said, "You can see if Cedric is still in the castle."
"Are you saying that Voldemort is hiding in the dark?" 'Krum' was shocked at first, "It is indeed possible. He should be able to turn into a magical animal like Cedric. But... What does it have to do with whether he is there or not?"
In the corridor on the eighth floor, Krum scanned the crowd and found that Fleur and Cedric were not there, only Harry was not far away.
Professor Flitwick and others who came were asking Harry and others questions.
"You don't know?" Ariana was surprised, "That's right, you are the only exception among us. I'm sending you a message. In this world, heroic spirits cannot be too far away from wizards."
'Krum' breathed a sigh of relief. In this case, the only one lurking around was the young Voldemort.
"However, our friends don't seem to be ready to show up yet."
His eyes began to search in the clouds.
There are many magical creatures that can fly and keep up with their speed, and it is not ruled out that they cannot fly.
Because after the transformation, it does not mean that flying magic cannot be used.
But he still thought too much.
As his eyes wandered, Riddle appeared from the clouds, and he did not intend to hide all the time.
"As expected of Dumbledore's sister, when did you find out?" Riddle looked at Ariana.
Ariana blinked, but still chose to lie, "When passing through the clouds, your movements were not natural."
If she told the truth, she was afraid that Riddle would be angry.
"I see," Riddle sighed, "I almost forgot that in your time, the Golden Snidget was not endangered."
"I am not familiar with it either."
"I knew it would be a ball-escape bird, I am very confident that you can't distinguish it."
Ariana suddenly realized that the golden light she just saw was Riddle.
She didn't expose the truth, but said seriously, "Now there are three of us, and there is only one Sorting Hat. What you want is nothing more than contribution."
"Our mission is to protect [Zi Mu River] from being destroyed."
"In this case, why don't we open up and find a safe place to set up a magic trap and hide it."
"The level of contribution depends on our respective magic levels."
Krum and Riddle nodded, "Good idea."
Ariana, who was in the state of magic fairy weapon release, was too powerful. They did not have the confidence to take her down without hurting the Sorting Hat.
"I disagree." The Sorting Hat objected.
But the three ignored it and flew directly along the train tracks to London. They planned to find a random place to hide in the wilderness on the side of the road.
(Ron was surprised, "Isn't this fake? How can it talk?")
(Ginny said unhappily, "Is it difficult to make a talking fake? Our mirrors can talk.")
("The winner will be Harry." Hermione looked at Harry's two screens, but something unexpected happened.)
After Professor McGonagall checked the headmaster's office and saw that Dumbledore had not returned, she left directly.
And Lily, who was hiding in the ceiling, also left.
There was no intention to stay and look for the real Sorting Hat.
At the door, after listening to everything Harry and the others said and exchanging information with Professor McGonagall, the professors led by Professor Flitwick began to think.
"So the prophecy is likely to be true?"
"Then there are four people eyeing a treasure in Hogwarts?"
"Maybe all four of them made it, so they are immortal."
Because Harry and the others were present, they did not say the term Horcrux.
"Two have appeared now, no, maybe three."
"And the three of them failed, and the remaining one will make another move before midnight?"
"No, it has already succeeded." Professor McGonagall shook her head, "The Sorting Hat has been stolen. And I only saw two people, a man and a woman, the man has no head, and the woman looks very ordinary. They are all very powerful."
"Sorting Hat?"
Some professors began to mouth.
(Dumbledore recognized it, "Gryffindor's sword?")
("Do they think that treasure is Gryffindor's sword?" Professor McGonagall was surprised.)
(The Sorting Hat is a magical portal that can be used to obtain another item owned by Godric Gryffindor: the Sword of Gryffindor.)
(The sword was enchanted by Godric and will appear when any Gryffindor student wears the hat for help.)
("How can they think so? Only a true Gryffindor can pull out this sword.")
(In McGonagall In Professor McGonagall's eyes, the real Gryffindor can never be a bad guy, but the professors in this world equate the imaginary bad guy with the person who drew the sword, which is very rude. )
"Looks ordinary?"
(Dumbledore's face turned black, and Aberforth Dumbledore in the Hog's Head directly scolded, "You are fucking ordinary, my sister is the cutest in the world!")
"Has Voldemort been cracked?"
The professors present, like Professor McGonagall before, thought of the problem of the sublimated wizard bloodline being cracked.
