Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 353 Lin You goes to find someone, someone goes to find Lin You

Lin You never hesitated to speculate on the gods with the greatest malice. After working with these gods as a writer for several years, he had long since erased the little awe he had.

So, when Zeus appeared in an unreasonable place at an unreasonable time and at an unreasonable speed, the writer immediately sounded the alarm in his heart.

Only a little over a day had passed since Patrick Morgan betrayed the conspiracy clues of the Norse pantheon; if Chronos did not leak the news as He said, how did Zeus discover that there was something wrong with Odin?

Is it really because of those "quarrels" at the assembly of gods that the dignified King of Olympus has been squatting at the gate of Asgard all day long waiting to hit Odin with a brick?

Did he think that the God King Zeus was a street thug? Lin You was not so naive; since he caught the Tianji Star Warrior, he did not feel relieved because the "truth was revealed", but instead felt a little worried.

The dispute between Olympus and the Pantheon had only been settled for a few days when a new round of storm was brewing.

The so-called Big World Plan is like a multi-party joint venture company in the real dimension; the major shareholders are all from extraordinary backgrounds, the small shareholders also have their own backgrounds, and the company openly uses the law of the jungle as its corporate culture without any scruples.

Every "colleague" you meet here can be regarded as a potential enemy.

Lin You doesn't like this kind of "working atmosphere", but he is a lonely ghost and does not have the confidence and courage to "resign" at all; no matter how much he dislikes it, he has to bite the bullet and continue to work, carefully cruising around the mouths of a group of giant sharks and crocodiles.

"I'll leave the job of interrogating the God Warriors to you. I'm insignificant and my words don't count. They don't want to waste time talking to me." The writer took a quick look at the Garden of Eden and was about to leave.

"You seem to be in a hurry?" God asked; He saw that the writer was in a bad mood and his anxiety was evident in his words.

"There's another dark wizard in the big world waiting for me to deal with!" Lin You was talking about Karkaroff, whose uncontrollable dark magic was a huge threat to the low-magic world. "I want to make sure that goatee finishes his supporting role honestly and doesn't develop some stupid ambitions because of the change in strength."

God nodded slightly to show his understanding and watched the writer walk back into the portal.

On the other side of the door was still the wilderness on the edge of the forbidden forest; the area within several kilometers around was devastated by the tentative fight between the two God Kings.

Fortunately, this area is remote, with primitive forests covering dozens of kilometers. There are no people, so there are no witnesses. Afterwards, it can be easily covered up by making up a fake news such as "local abnormal weather, sudden tornado destroying forest vegetation". Lin You did not stay and opened the dimensional space door leading to Hogwarts.

Hogwarts Castle prohibits apparition, but cannot prohibit the space teleportation of the microcosm. Although magic and the microcosm are both one of the original powers of the big world, the Ophiuchus microcosm itself has divinity, and its application is obviously more than one level higher than the protective magic of Hogwarts Castle.

However, Lin You did not enter the castle, but came to Black Lake and opened the dimensional door into Durmstrang's sailing ship. Although the sailing ship also had protective magic, it had no reaction to the invasion; Earl Goff even took a tour with interest, until he estimated that the welcome dinner in the castle was about to end, he slowly entered Karkaroff's cabin.

Following the convention of the sailing age, the captain's office and living room are both in the poop, where the living conditions are the best; opening the rear door, you can lean on the railing and enjoy the scenery behind. The furnishings in the cabin follow two styles: either luxurious or dark, and more often a combination of the two.

However, Lin You did not find anything valuable after a round of searching, and could not find any clues related to Karkaroff's sudden increase in strength. He was not disappointed at all, and sat behind Karkaroff's desk with a sigh, quietly listening to the noise gradually getting louder on the deck of the ship.

The teachers and students of Durmstrang are back.

The footsteps gradually approached, and Lin You unexpectedly recognized the footsteps of two people, not just Karkaroff. The cabin door was pushed open, and the people outside did not notice that someone had broken in earlier, and they walked and talked; until they found the figure behind the desk, the voices stopped abruptly.

The two people who entered the room reacted in unison, picking up their wands almost at the same time and pointing them at Lin You. Unfortunately, all their actions stopped at this moment.

The tall and strong young man fell down silently; Lin You recognized his identity as Krum, the seeker of the Bulgarian Quidditch national team, who would soon represent Durmstrang as a participant in the Triwizard Tournament.

The hatch closed and locked automatically without any wind; Karkaroff remained frozen in place, waving his wand; his wand fell to his feet with a "click", and he seemed to have turned into a statue.

"Don't be nervous, Mr. Karkaroff. Neither you nor your students will be in danger - as long as you are willing to cooperate with me honestly." Lin You used the gloomy wood wand as a wooden hammer, knocking on the table again and again; perhaps it was a habit, he would always hold the wand in his hand to pretend when facing wizards, even if it was of no use, he would still disguise himself as a wizard.

Karkaroff was in a state similar to that of the Celestial Warriors, unable to move, but still able to think and speak. "Who are you?" The cowardly Death Eater who dared to betray Voldemort tried to calm himself down, but his voice was still trembling; his sudden increase in strength did not change his nature. More importantly, he realized that his magic power was fading; with every tap from the opponent's wand, his dark magic faded a bit.

It wasn't long before the headmaster of Durmstrang was about as powerless as a Muggle.

"Now is not the time for you to ask questions, Mr. Karkaroff." Lin You stopped knocking, "Answer my question; when did you start to acquire such powerful black magic, and by what means did you do it?"

Karkaroff did not answer immediately. His eyes rolled around, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Hurry up, Mr. Karkaroff." Lin You warned with a cold face, "You can choose to answer the questions truthfully, and then I will start to solve the problem; or you refuse to answer the questions, then I will deal with the person who caused the problem."

The sharp tip of the gloomy wood wand almost pointed at the headmaster's nose.

"Who are you? You have to let me know who I'm talking to." Karkaroff showed his old-fashioned style and was unwilling to give in easily. Unfortunately, he didn't realize that the young man in front of him was in a state of severe lack of patience.

The tip of the staff twitched slightly, and unspeakable pain erupted from the depths of his soul. Karkaroff opened his mouth to scream, but there was no sound at all - the silencer of the small cabin had been pressed at some point.

In just a moment, the former Death Eater fainted.

Lin You frowned, because Karkaroff's fragility was beyond his expectation; the torture just now was at most equivalent to the level of the "Cruciatus Curse" cast by the crazy witch Bellatrix, so why did he faint?

Before Count Goff could figure it out, Karkaroff's eyes suddenly widened, he broke free from his restraints and stood up straight.

"Hello again, Writer." A voice that did not belong to Headmaster Durmstrang came from his mouth, and it sounded very familiar.

"Patrick Morgan?" Lin You stood up slowly, his whole body tense, ready to take action at any time, "Why are you everywhere?"

"I'm sorry to cause you trouble; however, if I don't create big enough changes in Mr. Karkaroff, how can I attract your attention and have this conversation?" Karkaroff, whose body was taken over, swept away his original nouveau riche temperament and revealed the demeanor of a British gentleman.

"For you, creating a dark wizard comparable to Voldemort is just to avoid the eyes and ears of other gods and get in touch with me?" Lin You sneered, not believing the other party's nonsense at all. "I thought you would use him to create a big commotion, such as a new 'unknown' event..."

Patrick Morgan's voice was frank and sincere: "We have enough material to create the 'unknown'. One more or one less is irrelevant to the overall situation. Besides, Mr. Karkaroff's qualifications are not good. It is not worth investing too much time and energy in him. Acting as a medium for a call is the greatest value he can play."

Lin You sighed with a wry smile: "As far as our evaluation of Karkaroff is concerned, it's rare for us to reach a consensus."

"Let's get back to the point, writer." Patrick Morgan changed the subject and went straight to the point. "I think it's time to have a frank conversation."

"When? What?"

"Let's talk about cooperation." Morgan's voice was serious and formal. "Now is a good time to discuss cooperation."

"Why do you think so?" Lin You did not refuse directly.

"Of course it's based on my strength. Everything that has happened in the past few days has fully demonstrated my strength. I have proved myself to be an excellent partner; what do you think, writer?" Patrick Morgan walked to the desk and looked at the writer across the table.

"You proved yourself to be an excellent partner - by betraying your partners?" Lin You almost laughed out loud.
