Chinese students at Hogwarts.

Chapter 528 The Greatest Wizard

Even in the empty and clear state, Zhang Xiao still felt extremely confused.

He looked at the surroundings. It was a small island with a small area.

Not far away is a rock wall that looks like it was cut by a knife or an axe. The sea water is not at all as blue as you see in the movies.

Instead, it seemed a little dark, and the cold and damp sea breeze howled, bringing up water vapor that hit people.

The damp and slippery breath rushed straight into the body.

The waves rolled up and hit the rocks, bringing out a lot of foam, and it seemed that the sun would never be seen here.

If I had to find a word to describe it, it would be dead silence.

The abandoned castle in the distance is vaguely hidden in the mist.

Some dark shadows roamed above the castle, adding a chilling sense of weirdness and fear to the place.

Yes, this is indeed Azkaban
But why did he come to Azkaban?

The Dementor in front of him with a slap mark on his face was still staring at him blankly.

The power surging in Zhang Xiao's body slowly subsided. The danger level of Azkaban was not high. There was nothing inside except some friendly Dementors.

He was full of doubts but didn't know how to express them, so he raised his hand tentatively.

The Dementor on the opposite side shuddered instinctively, let out a very miserable wail, then turned around and tried to run.

But then I heard Zhang Xiao's tentative question:

"Excuse me, is this the Slytherin residence? I came to see Slytherin based on a clue."

These words seemed to suddenly trigger the Dementor's hidden emotions.

Its movements immediately stiffened. Even though he couldn't see its face, Zhang Xiao could feel that the Dementor seemed to be undergoing some strange changes.

It was as if what I said triggered some keywords.

After a while, the Dementor slowly turned around, stretched out its dry palm and waved towards himself.

Is this a sign for me to keep up?
It’s actually here!

Zhang Xiao suppressed his excitement and followed the Dementors into the thin mist. The entire island was silent.

Only the howling wind from the North Sea blew, causing waves to crash against the rocks.

They walked slowly and soon came to the cliff at the edge of the island. Then, in Zhang Xiao's surprised gaze, the Dementor leaped into the sea.

what?
The Dementor dived into the sea without any hesitation. Zhang Xiao thought about it and jumped down as well.

The water in the North Sea is extremely cold, and the light in this cloudy place is very weak. Fortunately, with the help of the magic eye, I can still see the movements of the Dementors.

It keeps flowing downstream. Where is it going?

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but feel curious, so he also quickened his pace. After going deeper for a while, Zhang Xiao discovered the strangeness of this island.

The entire island of Azkaban is like a pillar that suddenly appears, unlike other islands which are a raised and gentle slope.

The sea water is not deep, and it takes only about a hundred meters to reach the bottom. This explains why the Ministry of Magic did not thoroughly check the entire island.

According to the Ministry of Magic's style, being able to dive ten meters into the water was considered fulfilling one's duty. They probably only checked the buildings on the island.

The Dementors circled around the bottom of the island for a while, then suddenly sank into the wall and disappeared. Zhang Xiao hurriedly followed it and after looking carefully for a while, he discovered that there was a small hole on the rugged stone wall.

The entrance to this cave is very hidden. If you don’t look closely against the wall, you might miss it.

Just go straight up after entering the cave. Soon the surroundings become clear, and then go up again and you will directly emerge from the water.

But it was something like a cave, and the Dementors were standing by the water waiting for him.

Zhang Xiao looked at the cave. It was unusually regular and it was obviously man-made. There was even a small path dug out beside the pool.

The Dementor gestured to him to walk along the path and then stood there motionless.

With full of doubts in his heart, Zhang Xiao walked slowly along the path. The stone walls of the passage were wet and the entire passage was silent.

Only the sound of Zhang Xiao's footsteps was echoing. The further he walked, the more his heart sank.

This place obviously looks unmaintained. If Slytherin were still here, or still alive, it would definitely not be like this.

It is more likely that Slytherin is dead or gone.
I don't know how long I walked before a rotten wooden door appeared in front of me. Zhang Xiao pushed it gently, and the wooden door collapsed and broke into pieces when it hit the ground.

Looking at the dark room, Zhang Xiao raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

The soft light gradually brightened, and the place became clearer.

This was a cottage that was once very cozy, but everything inside had become decayed by the erosion of time.

The wooden bed on one side was about to collapse, the original bedding had long since rotted into a pile of black stuff, and the metal products were also covered in rust.

The ground and corners were covered with moss, and Zhang Xiao lowered his eyes.

Am I late after all?

But the next second, there was a slight noise from the other side of the room, and an equally rotten wooden door was slowly pushed open.

Zhang Xiao suddenly raised his head and saw a Dementor also wearing a black robe pushing open the door and walking in.

After just one glance, I couldn't look away. I saw that this Dementor was obviously different from the Dementors I had seen before. Its body was much taller. A normal Dementor was already two meters tall.

This Dementor is three meters tall. If the cave weren't spacious enough, it probably wouldn't be able to accommodate it.

The second thing is the clothes. Dementors have no gender, but Zhang Xiao thought this Dementor was female just by looking at it.

Because under the tattered cloak, it was wearing a tattered black skirt, and a pair of dirty and almost tattered yellow duck underwear on its arms.
At this moment, Zhang Xiao felt that his brain was about to overload. No, Dementors in yellow duck underwear???
Why does it have this on its arm?

The Dementor slowly floated in front of him and lowered its head. Although it had no face and there was only nothing under its hood, Zhang Xiao inexplicably felt that the Dementor was looking at him.

And the strange thing was that he actually felt a kind of peace from this Dementor.

There's nothing Dementor about this!
After calming down, Zhang Xiao asked tentatively, "Hello, I am a student of Slytherin College. I saw the message from Slytherin senior in the Kingdom of Olympus."

After saying that, he took out the parchment and shook it. Zhang Xiao immediately felt that the Dementor's attention had shifted. She stared at the parchment, motionless, with a faint sadness slowly dissipating.

Then she turned around and motioned Zhang Xiao to follow her. After passing through the small door, there was another completely different room.

The whole room was covered with a thin layer of ice and remained intact. The Dementors motioned Zhang Xiao to come to the desk, and she pointed to the pile of documents on the table.

Then it slowly floated to the side, stuck to the wall, lowered its head, and seemed to fall asleep again.

With extremely complicated emotions, Zhang Xiao sat down, stretched out his hand and brushed across the desk, and the thin layer of ice disappeared with his movement.

The secrets buried in history were finally revealed.

“Everything started from that relic. Come on, I left my record. If I fail, just step over my dead body and keep going.

I used to be very curious about where those ancient gods went, and after leaving Hogwarts, I continued my travels.

I feel relieved to have Godric watching over me at school. I have to say that Rowena is a genius. I'm afraid that by the time the church finds that their new forces are dwindling, they will have already weakened completely.

In a ruin, I saw the truth.

There was a war among the gods, and they have all fallen.

This world cannot support so many gods, so in order to survive, they chose to reduce the number of gods in an attempt to continue to survive.

They succeeded and they failed, the god of the church killed the other gods, but in a battle with the god of another monotheistic religion, they perished together.

There are no more gods in the whole world.

But why can't the entire world bear so many gods?

I was very curious, so I continued searching, but I didn't expect the answer to be so cruel.

The power of the gods is so strong that they can distort reality and perform all kinds of incredible miracles with just their will.

They can turn the entire earth into a desert, control thunder and lightning, and create tsunamis.

But as their numbers increase and they become stronger, the distortion that the world can bear also has an upper limit. Once this limit is exceeded, the entire world will be distorted.

The darkness of desire will devour everyone, which means the world will end.

Fortunately, the gods obtained this prophecy, and eventually a war of gods broke out, and with their fall, the crisis was averted.

But new crises remain.

As descendants of these gods, wizards can also release magic through desire and distort reality.
This means that if the number of wizards continues to increase, the doomsday that the gods once faced will come again! "

Zhang Xiao suddenly raised his head. Although he was in the cold underground, he felt hot all over, and even beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

So this is why Slytherin wants to restrict Muggle wizards!

Those pure-blood wizards may have few offspring due to close relatives, but when Hogwarts began to recruit students, the number of wizards actually increased.

The number of Muggles is also expanding rapidly at a rate that no one can imagine.

Judging from the trend of students enrolled in Hogwarts in the past two years, Slytherin's concerns are absolutely right, because the number of students in each school is increasing.

He calmed himself down, took a deep breath and continued reading.

"I wanted to limit the number of Muggle wizards at first, but Godric and Rowena dissuaded me. They were right. Even if we didn't recruit them, these children would eventually be accepted by the church.

I wanted to tell them what happened, but now was not the time.

I'm afraid that if I tell them this terrible truth rashly, despair will spread.

Hogwarts still needs them to maintain it, and I must find a way to resolve this crisis.
I am Salazar Slytherin, destined to become the greatest wizard in the future.

Fortunately, I found a way!
Wizards distort reality through desire. No matter what their original intention is for performing magic, it can all be attributed to desire. The accumulation of this desire will lead to the destruction of the world.

But what if wizards don't distort through desire?

So can it be avoided?

Yes, I have thought of the way, that is to constrain through standard spells, as wizards gradually combine the ideas and desires of distorting the world with fixed spells.

A huge net will appear, and they no longer need strong emotions or twisted desires. They can even release magic by just reciting a spell!"

Magic Web!! Magic Web!! Magic Web!!
This is the magic web! The magic web that Dumbledore once mentioned!

Zhang Xiao's eyes widened, and his hands began to tremble slightly uncontrollably.

What did Professor Dumbledore say?
If the Weave is constructed, even Muggles with the right wand can cast magic.

Because at that time everything was done by the magic network. It was like an automatically running instruction. The spell was the command symbol. You only needed to input the spell and the magic network would naturally give feedback!
Slytherin! So this is Slytherin's plan. No wonder he keeps talking about the need to promote a standard spell system.

He really was trying to be a savior, and it seemed like he succeeded!
Professor Dumbledore has already taken that step. He saw the prototype of the magic network and he saw the magic network being perfected.

Although it has not been completed yet, everything is developing as expected!

But Slytherin has already succeeded, why doesn't he tell his friends?
Zhang Xiao recalled the letter he received in the first grade. Or did something unexpected happen in between that he didn't know about?

With endless doubts, Zhang Xiao continued reading.

“But in order to complete this task, there is still a difficulty that needs to be solved urgently.
The speed at which twisted desires accumulate is beyond my imagination. At this rate, it won’t be long before doomsday occurs again.

I'm afraid there is only one way. I plan to use my body as a container to contain those twisted desires and emotions.

Waiting for this network to grow, and then slowly help me share the burden.

It’s just that the human body is too weak. I think I need to transform my body to make it stronger.

Only in this way can I accommodate more distorted desires and emotions.
I don't know what my consequences will be, but Godric, my friend, I will keep my promise.

Protect Hogwarts until the end of your life."
