MTL - In This Hogwarts Without a Savior-Chapter 475 473. Trouble
Chapter 475 473. Trouble
Slughorn and Dandy are now sitting in just the right place, apparently specially arranged by Slughorn.
The bedroom door was on the side behind him, and only Slughorn could see the finger protruding from the crack in the door, gesturing to him, and then an invisible streak appeared on the tip of the finger. Shadowless edge!
Slughorn didn't look at the door again, but stared at Dandy, trying to draw his attention further by opening his mouth.
However, this former Auror showed full alertness. What Slughorn said just now made it difficult for him to continue to offend and check the bedroom, but he still looked back at it every once in a while. , the only dead corner that could be problematic.
Maybe many people in the pure blood have forgotten, but Dandy still remembers that Slughorn was not only Voldemort's former dean, but you also served as Dumbledore for two or three years before he joined the UK. year professor.
And Dandy is also one of the very few purebloods who are not suspicious of Slughorn, but are vigilant!
The moment he turned his head, Slughorn's pupils constricted, and he began to fall backwards!
"Om!"
A slight vibrato sounded in this office. After seeing the magic wand sticking out from the gap in the door, Dandy reacted very quickly and his body slid down from the chair like a loach. Almost in the next second, he Hide behind the back of the chair!
But just when his mind was tense and he had almost concluded that this was a surprise attack by Slughorn and most likely by outsiders from Wu Pingxian, he drew out his wand and was about to start a counterattack, a bright green light Suddenly it shot past him!
The breath of death made Dandy feel terrified!
Then there was a muffled sound, accompanied by the sound of a chair falling to the ground and a person's body rolling to the ground!
Then Dandy, who was lying on the ground, saw Slughorn lying sideways on the ground, with those eyes that were dying!
This attack was not aimed at him?
is trying to deal with Slughorn!
In an instant, Dandy had a decision in his mind.
He didn't stop, he turned around and cast the Explosive Curse in the direction where the magic wand protruded from the bedroom door. However, his swinging wand and silent spellcasting obviously made no mistakes, but there was no explosion at all, as if some force would As if his spell had been canceled!
Dandy quickly retrieved all the information about Wu Pingxian in his mind, and among the people led by Dumbledore, there was only one person who had the ability to directly erase magic!
"Jon Green!"
he snapped.
And Jon, who was hiding behind the door, no longer concealed it. He kicked the door open while swinging his stick with a calm face!
There was no sound of spells, but the green light full of death made Dandy roll on the ground, and at the same time raised his wand to attack Jon!
Jon just turned his head to avoid the death curse that Jon fought back. He didn't chant the spell or swing his staff. After seeing Dandy roll out of the cover of the chair, there was an invisible and invisible The blade burst from his fingertips!
He deliberately restrained the power of the shadowless sharp edge, and Dandy couldn't avoid it at all. Originally, Snape invented this kind of magic with extremely fast casting speed, and there was not much room for people to avoid it. Joe Well, now she is casting spells silently without a stick, which makes people unable to react in time!
"boom!"
There was a solid sound like glass shattering, and the Iron Armor Curse on Dandy, which had been maintained even in the Department of Mysteries, shattered!
Jon scolded the pervert in his heart, and he guessed that this person would probably have the habit of maintaining the Iron Armor Curse to protect himself all the time, and he was right now.
At this time, Dandy hadn't thought about his own survival. Just a few spells were enough for him to see the gap between himself and Jon.
Slughorn has been killed, and he probably will die too. He doesn't know how Jon sneaked into the Department of Mysteries quietly, but what Dandy knows is that he must make a big noise, The big movement that is enough for everyone in the Department of Mysteries to hear, so that Jon can't continue to hide here, otherwise he will do great harm to the entire Ministry of Magic!
So, after the Iron Armor Curse shattered, Dandy raised his wand, and the tip of the wand was not aimed at Jon himself, but turned to the door of the director's office!
With the distance between Jon and him now, it is too late to stop him from casting spells!
"Thunderbolt."
But in the middle of his incantation, a red light hit his body!
Dandy's eyes were wide open. Before his body was completely stiff and petrified, he saw Slughorn who was lying on the ground, who should have been dead, and got up from the ground with a wand in his hands.
"So I told you, you have to keep 800 minds when dealing with these spirits."
Slughorn complained, beating the dust off his robes.
Jon also came over, he snatched the wand from Dandy's hand, and then added two petrification spells and a binding spell to him for insurance.
"Fortunately, teacher, you have a No. 2 plan. Otherwise, if someone catches you, we won't be able to hide here any longer. These Death Eaters are really disgusting. The idiots are going to die, and all of these shrewd ones are like monkeys."
Dandy had no way to answer Jon's words, whether it was a compliment or a humiliation, he could only stare, as if he wanted to kill the two bastards, Slughorn and Jon, with his eyes.
"Did my silent death curse hit you?"
Jon didn't take care of Dandy first, but cared about Slughorn's situation.
Shaking his head, Slughorn took out a board with scorched black holes from under his robe.
"I took preventive measures. Besides, haven't we all tried it with mice before? The death curse you cast silently is not powerful enough to kill people directly."
"That's also a death curse, if you can miss it, try your best not to hit it."
Hearing their conversation, if Dandy didn't know that he was being played around, then his brain would be in vain.
But he can't do anything now, not even suicide.
Besides, even if he can bite his tongue, hit a wall, etc., with Slughorn, a top potion master, and Jon, a bug that can turn into a phoenix, as long as he still has a breath, he can't die if he wants to!
"Okay, hurry up, let's not waste time, if he stays in my office for too long, those people outside may have doubts."
While speaking, Slughorn also took out a small glass bottle that he had prepared a long time ago from the drawer, which contained the Veritaserum he had personally refined.
Jon had dragged Dandy to the corner at this time, and pinched his mouth open.
The master and the apprentice worked together to drop three drops of veritaserum into his mouth, which is the amount for a normal interrogation. If there is more, it will easily cause problems for Dandy's mental state, and he needs to be kept later. So try not to let him suffer any obvious trauma.
After pouring the veritaserum into his mouth, Jon and Slughorn stared at the time and waited for three full minutes before the potion took full effect before unlocking all the spells on Dandy.
Jon nodded to Slughorn, and asked Dandy.
"What is Voldemort's mission for you?"
Soon, Dandy, who had become sluggish, responded.
"Hold the Department of Mysteries from anyone else, and then."
It can be seen that his own will is strongly resisting, as if there is something he doesn't want to say and dare not say!
However, Jon unceremoniously grabbed his neck and stopped his body from swinging.
"Then what!"
"Then. Then look at the Hall of Time. There is an unobtrusive door there. Be careful not to let anyone open that door"
Both Jon and Slughorn held their breath, knowing that they had asked the key to the question.
"Why can't it be opened? What's behind the door? What's the way to open that door?"
This series of three questions made Dandy's body produce endless resistance, but in the end he couldn't resist the effect of Veritaserum.
"Because, because, there is the secret of the master's eternal life behind it. How to open that door, the master, the master, no one said."
Hearing this, Jon couldn't help but frown. It's useless to know what secrets are hidden behind the door. What is needed is to find a way to get in and see what's inside with his own eyes!
But now Dandy obviously doesn't know about the opening of the door, and with Voldemort II's extremely cautious character, he will not tell others the biggest secret related to him.
Just as Jon and Slughorn were frowning together, Dandy opened his mouth again, and he said a word.
"I was, when I first came to the Department of Mysteries, when I took over here. I heard from the Reticent Man who stayed here before. He has been studying the door that I don't know how to open in the Hall of Time. The method to open the door is Something in the Hall of Time"
Jon suddenly looked up, and he stared into Dandy's eyes.
"Where is the Reticent Man now!"
"I was afraid that the master's secret would be leaked, so I found an opportunity in private. Kill him"
Slughorn couldn't help clenching his fists. This man was too loyal and cautious to Voldemort.
Jon took a deep breath and didn't give up.
"And what did you learn from him?"
"I, I only know this, the master's secret as a servant should not know too much."
The office fell into silence.
Jon and Slughorn didn't know what to say, but soon Jon reacted again, and he pulled Dandy's body and pulled him up again.
"Anyway, sir, it's better to have all this than nothing, at least we know the problem is behind that door, and the way to open it is in the hall of time. Now check this guy and make sure there's nothing left on him , and then help him reinstall the Iron Armor Curse, memory modification."
Slughorn also knew that every time they dragged on for a while, the danger of being discovered would increase. No one knew if this wizard named Dandy had made any arrangements for the other purebloods outside. , and once it is found that he has not come out of the director's office for a long time, will anyone want to come in to check the situation.
So Slughorn used the Imperius Curse directly on Dandy, controlled him, let him use the Iron Armor Curse on himself, then canceled the Imperius Curse on him, and re-weaved his mind with the Oblivion Curse memory of today's conversation.
Afterwards, Jon went back to hide in the bedroom, while Slughorn continued to sit behind the office. At this time, Dandy slowly regained his consciousness.
He looked at Slughorn, who was looking at him strangely, and blinked his eyes.
"What did you say, Mr. Director?"
"I said, Chrisson, did you not have a good rest last night? I saw you seem to be thinking about something just as I spoke, and you didn't know where you were?"
Hearing what he said, Dandy's heart tightened first, and then he quickly checked his body, but found no problems. Even the Iron Armor Curse was still maintained, and the method of releasing it was obviously his own work.
After completing such an inspection, he felt a little relaxed in his heart, but still felt that something was wrong with him today, so he stared into Slughorn's eyes, wanting to end this conversation with him quickly.
"So what do you think, Mr. Director?"
"You made me feel disrespected." Slughorn waved his hand at him coldly, "I was already a little moved, but I'd better communicate with Parkinson and the others about these things."
Dandy thought that his performance just now made Slughorn unhappy. Although he didn't mind it, he still apologized.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Director, I will apologize to you again when I have a chance in the future."
Slughorn seemed to have lost the idea of communicating with him, and waved his hand.
"Let's go, let's go, don't you have something to do."
Dandy didn't stay any longer, he got up and apologized before pushing the door and leaving the director's office.
And after he left, Jon walked out again after Slughorn made sure that the door was locked from the inside.
Slughorn's face is not fake, even if Dandy has left, it is still ugly.
"We only have two days at most, although I don't know what Dumbledore wants to do that day, but if we can't find it."
Jon shook his head and interrupted him.
"Professor no, at least we now know that the way to open the door is in the Time Hall. If it really doesn't work in the end, at worst we can use some rougher methods."
Speaking of this, Jon paused.
"Let me try it in the Time Hall first, but it's too conspicuous to stay in it openly, teacher, you need to help me draw their attention."
