Hogwarts: The Greatest Wizard

Dumbledore sighed slightly, but no one else noticed.

He looked at Mundungus and asked,

"Mundungus, is there any useful information from the magic world right now? I think you have more information than we do,"

Mundungus said,

"Vampires have rarely appeared in the black market in the magic world recently, and the few that have been secretive about their internal battles have not mentioned it."

Dumbledore frowned and asked,

"So, you have no clue about Mr. Black."

Mundungus nodded and said nothing more.

Dumbledore looked at McGonagall and asked,

"And where is the house elf that lives with our Mr. Black,"

Professor McGonagall said,

"After little Phineas disappeared, the elf blamed himself very much. Now he is waiting for news in the kitchen of Hogwarts."

"Minerva, please bring that house elf here."

Dumbledore said to Professor McGonagall, and then turned to look at the photos of previous principals on the wall of the principal's office. Among them was a principal from the Black family, Phineas Black, who had the same name as Finny.

"Phineas, please run to your old house and ask the elf named Kreacher to come over with our little Mr. Black's personal belongings."

Phineas Black rolled his eyes in the photo and said,

"It's just for my unsatisfactory descendants, otherwise I wouldn't do this."

With that said, he also left the portrait.

Looking at Dumbledore's series of orders, Moody asked in confusion,

"Albus, what are you doing?"

Before Dumbledore could answer, Snape gave the answer first. He frowned and asked Dumbledore in a cautious tone,

"Dumbledore, are you going to use that ritual?"

Dumbledore nodded and said,

"Looking at the current situation, the vampires will not reveal their internal information. It is impossible for any of us to find out the information about Mr. Black. If this delay continues, I doubt whether his safety can be guaranteed." Guaranteed, so,”

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Snape.

"I know time is running out now, but you have to know the price you have to pay to perform that ritual!"

After hearing this, Moody looked at Snape with confusion and asked,

"What ceremony are you talking about? Why haven't I heard of it at all? Also, there is a price to pay. What is the price?"

Professor McGonagall also came to the office with Puff at this time. He happened to hear Moody's question and asked,

"Dumbledore, what are you going to do?"

Dumbledore smiled slightly and said,

"Don't worry, Severus, Minerva, it's just a simple positioning ceremony, there is no need to pay any price,"

Snape interrupted Dumbledore angrily,

"I'm not a fool who doesn't know anything! Dumbledore, I know that spell very clearly and understand every step of it!"

Dumbledore smiled and said,

"I know, Severus, I knew it when you asked me just now, but now this magic ritual is the best way for us to find Black, isn't it? Moreover, the price is really not as heavy as you think."

Snape obviously would not listen to Dumbledore's advice.

"That is the permanent disappearance of magic power! This is not an ordinary price!"

After hearing this, the expressions of Moody, Mag, Mundungus and Dedalo all changed.

McGonagall looked at Dumbledore.

"Albus, is he telling the truth?"

Dumbledore shook his head and said,

"The consequence of this ritual is that you will lose part of your magic power forever, but the amount is really not that much. Moreover, I am old, so it is a good thing to exchange a small part of my magic power for a descendant who still has a future, isn't it? ?”

Hearing this, even the principals on the wall could only sigh, because they understood Dumbledore best, and they also understood that all Dumbledore's actions at this time were definitely not due to the suppression of the Ministry of Magic or the people of the wizarding world. He really wanted to save this little wizard, that's all.

Snapped!

Suddenly, Kreacher, the head elf of the Black family, appeared in the principal's office at Hogwarts, holding a piece of clothing in his hand, which was exactly the one that Feeney had worn before.

Seeing this, Dumbledore smiled and said,

"Very good. Now that the conditions are complete, we can start."

The movements of his hands became more agile. He found a crucible in the corner and looked at Snape.

Snape took the cauldron with a gloomy expression, filled it with water, and added some potion.

"Items for those who are looking for them."

Snape snatched the dress from Kreacher's hand and threw it into the cauldron.

“The magic of the master of ceremonies.”

After hearing this, Dumbledore injected part of his magic power into the crucible. Of course, the exact amount is unknown.

"A contract for those who seek."

When Snape finished saying this, Dumbledore took Puff and put her hand on top of the cauldron, and made a cut on her hand, and blood dripped into the pot of magic. In medicine.

The originally dark gray potion turned directly to green in an instant, and continued to change color as Snape stirred it.

After a while, the potion turned as bright red as blood.

McGonagall looked at Snape doubtfully and asked,

"What kind of potion is this?"

Snape shook his head and said,

"This is indeed a potion, but I prefer to call it a ritual,"

Dumbledore took over and explained,

"This is a kind of magic originating from Native Americans, a locating spell. Of course, this magic was originally not so complicated. It is very useful for locating missing people. All it requires is a map and relatives of the missing person. "

"However, this magic can only locate normal locations. If it is in a place that cannot be marked or described, then it cannot be located, even in some enchantments, and it requires the blood of relatives. Therefore, later people Improved this spell,"

Snape said,

"The magic spell that only needs to be cast normally has been turned into a magic potion. The missing items are used to determine the target and simple positioning. The magic power of the ritual person is to provide magic power for the magic potion to forcefully break through the knot. At the same time, the contract of the missing person not only enhances the accuracy of the target, but also adds the effect of the contract to the potion, which can force the location of the missing person to be sensed, and can even break through the anti-Apparition and go directly to the target. around."
