I, the leader of the secret sect, will do great things in the infinite world!

As if thinking of something, Snape's eyes slowly changed: "...So, you found the trace of the mysterious man, or do you know his exact location?"

There was no embarrassment on Dumbledore's face: "Unfortunately, it's not any of what you said."

Snape's face darkened.

Almost got it.

"However, I don't think you know that Voldemort once made seven Horcruxes in pursuit of immortality."

Dumbledore said calmly, then watched with satisfaction as Snape began to turn pale.

He still remembers that when he heard the news for the first time, he had almost the same expression...

"Horcrux... or seven? This lunatic." Snape gasped heavily, and he couldn't help but let go of his arms around his chest.

As a former Death Eater who studied the Dark Arts and its defenses, Snape naturally knew what a Horcrux was.

But making seven Horcruxes?Voldemort is really not afraid that his soul will be blown to pieces during the production process.

"Which seven?"

Hearing this news made Snape's heart quite uneasy, and he was eager to know the exact location of those Horcruxes.

"This is one of them." Dumbledore put the crown in his hand on the table, watched Snape's eyes become stiff little by little, and smiled with satisfaction.

But after thinking of Li Lin's attitude, the corners of Dumbledore's mouth pulled down again.

No one can refuse the Ravenclaw crown, except Li Lin.

"Ravenclaw's... diadem?" Snape took a few deep breaths, closed his eyes, and simply did not look at the magical diadem, "It seems that it is not lost, but Someone stole it and made it his Horcrux. In that case, I guess Gryffindor's sword, Hufflepuff's cup, and Slytherin's locket all belong to that person Horcruxes."

"I have to correct you, Severus." Dumbledore tapped his fingers on the back of his hand. "The sword of Gryffindor is still where it should be."

Dumbledore knew that Gryffindor's sword was still hidden in the sorting hat, waiting for the brave to draw it.

Li Lin also tried to find the sword of Gryffindor, but obviously, he was not the brave man recognized by the sword.

Snape's eyes changed again: "So, you came to me to find the next Horcrux..."

The potions master paced up and down in the office, rubbing his chin, turned around after a while, walked quickly to the desk, and stared at Dumbledore.

"You... know the level that guards that Horcrux? Where did Voldemort set a trap for potions?"

"You are always so clever, Severus." Dumbledore admired, "But I can only go to that place once, otherwise Voldemort must have sensed it, so I must prepare in advance."

"I see." Snape nodded, he didn't drag his feet, and he didn't look at the crown with any nostalgia.

He knew enough about Voldemort's character to know that he would stop at nothing to weaken any pretender, even his own followers.

Since there is a trap about potion in the level guarding the Horcrux, it must be some kind of potion that makes life worse than death.

"I'll go back and prepare the antidote and first aid potion." Snape said simply, "I need about a week."

"I'll give you half a month to prepare." Dumbledore nodded, "We still have plenty of time."

Snape didn't say anything more, he opened the door of the headmaster's office, but didn't take a step outside.

After a while, he took a step back, fully exposing the scene outside the corridor to Dumbledore's eyes.

Dumbledore grabbed the Horcrux on the table and put it into his sleeve, then looked solemnly at the faint mist floating in front of him, he stretched out his hand to grab it, and then saw a thin layer of white on the pads of his fingers. Frost.

"It seems to be winter."

Dumbledore whispered, each time he uttered a word, it was like hitting a heavy block of ice.

He waved his wand, and a cluster of warm golden flames leaped out, surrounding him and Snape. Fox in front of the window shook his fur and flew to Dumbledore's left shoulder with wings.

Then, a warm and bright silver light emerged from his right shoulder, and a silver phoenix that was more illusory than Fox, but bigger appeared on his right shoulder.

"Expecto Patronum."

On the other side, with the help of Dumbledore, Snape also took the opportunity to wave his wand, and a silver doe jumped out of the air, dexterously ran around him, and finally stopped beside him.

Calling the Guardian, that is, the Patronus Charm, is one of the oldest and most powerful spells in the wizarding world. Most wizards cannot release the Patronus Charm, which is regarded as a symbol of extraordinary mana.

Among the wizards who can release the Patronus Charm, most of them can only release the shapeless silver-white mist. Naturally, this is not a complete Patronus, and can only provide a rather limited protection.

Albus Dumbledore's Patronus is a phoenix, while Severus Snape's is a doe because of Lily.

Under the blessing of the Patronus Charm, they quickly left the Hogwarts main building.

In the dark night, mist came from Ravenclaw Tower and the Black Lake.

Dumbledore frowned slightly. Just as he was about to say something, he heard loud laughter coming from the west tower, and then a strong light was released from the top of the tower, illuminating the night sky of Hogwarts like day.

"That's Flitwick's laughter," said Snape flatly. "I think we need to have a word with the old professor."

"Talk, talk to me?"

A voice suddenly sounded from above their heads.

Dumbledore looked up quickly, and saw that the lingering white light in the sky became bigger and bigger, and the short Professor Flitwick jumped down from the west tower and came in front of them.

The head of Ravenclaw had grown emaciated, like a skeleton that hadn't eaten in months, but his pupils were like windows through which light shone.

"Albus, Severus. You want to talk to me?"

As Flitwick opened his mouth, even a brilliant light came out of his mouth, his voice was devoid of emotion, but there was a thrilling frenzy in it.

122 Who is knocking on my window

At this time, Master Li, who was in Mansu, received one good news and another good news.

As for why it is described in this way, please ask Lu Xun.

In short, the first good news is that after many meetings, their chat sanctuary in Mansu has been completely stabilized. Miss Nian, who is not a big deal to watch the excitement, suggested that Li Lin open a copy for everyone to have fun.

Master Li, who was also planning to do something big all day long, naturally agreed without hesitation, and immediately patted Nian Naizi and said that he would definitely create happiness with his heart and bring everyone an extraordinary gaming experience.

Of course, whether it is a "duplicate" or a "game", they are actually the language of Tomorrow's Ark... In essence, these are "mysteries" that exist in Mansu or the border of the world when you wake up ", they are the scars left on the world by the intricate history.

These scars did not heal, but remained, and became a "secret realm" as vast as stars.

Most of these secret realms are one-off, and there are very few dungeons that can be repeatedly cleared.

They are essentially the embodiment of the principle of secret history. Only by finding the center to maintain the secret realm can the scars of secret history be healed and the unstable history be brought back on the right track.

And although the ministers can see all the secret history and heal the wounds of history itself, but there are these migrant workers who continue to contribute their surplus value to help them work, why not do it?

Si Chenzhong's Scavenger Crow said that young people should explore more secret realms and move less bricks.

This is also why the vast majority of Esoteric believers are keen to explore those secret realms - it is naturally a great thing to be able to earn impression points in front of Si Chen, and to obtain rare objects and precious secrets handed down from generation to generation.

Of course, no one will say such unpleasant things as being injured or even dying during the exploration.

You don’t drink the toast, you don’t drink the toast, you ride in the car when you walk, you talk nonsense when you talk, you talk nonsense about your personal affairs, you turn the table when you serve food, you draw your own cards when you listen to the leader... This kind of talent will be because of the time when you enter the headquarters that night. , the left foot was stuffed into the dungeon first.

"So, this is the limitation of the waking world."

It was still the top of the grassy mountain, with cobalt blue light pouring down from the sky. In front of the collapsed temple, the four of Master Li were sitting around a hot pot.

Nian picked up a suspicious-looking crimson piece of meat, and when the finger-sized piece of meat was picked up by the chopsticks, it was still twitching.

"What is this?" Talula, who was pouring camel meat from Usa specialty into the hot pot, had a disgusted expression on her face, "Damn...this thing looks like a bug."

"Poke, it's a special product of Mansu." Miss Nian imitated Li Lin's tone and explained, "This is the meat of Mansu creatures, so you must try it. When I visited the [Baldomy people] last time, she gave Me a little."

"Ah..." Tallulah looked at Li Lin suddenly, "Is this the Longevity of the Lamp you mentioned last time...or the Named One?"

"Under normal circumstances, the boundary between the named person of the lantern and the immortal is quite blurred, but the real named person is a rare and powerful existence even in Mansu."

Nian shook the chopsticks in his hand, and put the piece of meat that looked appetizing into the hot pot, and suddenly a strange sweet smell rose in the air.

"This Mansu existence with the honorable name [Baldomyji] is indeed a powerful bearer of the lamp. But the point is not that, do you know that she has raised a large group of beaters in her territory Eh."

Nian sighed in a shocking tone: "I also want to raise a group of similar things..."

"So it's beater meat?"

"No." Nian shook his head, "This is another Mansu resident with the same name as the challenger, the native prophet. They have many tentacles, so they sometimes cut off parts of themselves for trade."

Tallulah just felt an old trough in her chest and didn't know what to do.

Damn, are you all playing so flamboyantly in Mansu?

"We, Mansu, have our own national conditions here." Li Lin resolutely turned into a young general of Manman, and chimed in with his yin and yang.

Talula rolled her eyes silently, the adulterer and adulterer.

After brushing the original prophet's tentacles in the pot, Nian stuck out his red tongue and sucked the tentacles in: "Speaking of which, I occupy the time and geography, why should I compete for resources with those melon skins in the awakening world? "

"There are also secret realms in Mansu, and the number far exceeds that in the waking world. Even if the exploration fails, you will not die. At most, your head will become dizzy after returning to reality."

"Besides, even if Li Lin can explore the world while awake, you won't be able to come. Isn't that a big loss?" Nian spread his hands.

Talula and Kingslayer exchanged glances, then looked up at Nian: "I didn't expect you to be such a virtuous person..."

"Strictly speaking, this guy is not a human being." Li Lin, who couldn't help but talk cheaply, stood up from the side, and was hit by Nian with chopsticks.

"After this melon comes back from another world, we will start to form a team for the first time." Miss Nian rubbed Li Lin's dog's head angrily, "One more thing, [Baldomyji] agreed to observe you, and finally In no more than a year, the trial of the God of Illumination and Dispelling Darkness will fall."

"Whether you can win Si Chen's favor in this trial, and be exempted from the judgment of history, is up to you."

Nian clamped Li Lin's neck, rubbing his face back and forth in his hair, his voice was a bit vague, "Don't let me down the painstaking efforts of my father."

"I have a problem." Li Lin, who was pressed against his chest, said suddenly.

"What's your problem?"

"If, I mean, if that old man of the night watchman sees that I am handsome, unrestrained, handsome, handsome, and extraordinary, Yushu Linfeng is tall, majestic, majestic and suave, and forces me to be his son-in-law, what should I do?"

"Although you have filled half of the water in such a long paragraph, I can understand." Nian nodded solemnly, "After all, you are quite popular, don't worry, if you cheat, I will send you back again." Interrupt once."

Li Lin immediately sat upright: "I don't change my name and surname when I go down, and I don't mess up when I'm sitting, so it's Liu Xiahui."

Sitting opposite them, Talula, who was sitting across from them, would eat or not eat immediately with the sliced ​​meat between them. The restless little dragon girl couldn't help but turned to look at the King Slayer beside her. where to come.

"Eat, eat, and eat."

The kingslayer, who was interrupted from eating for no reason, widened his eyes, struggled to swallow the food in his mouth, and asked doubtfully, "What happened?"

"...Let's eat yours!" Xiao Longnu said angrily.

The Kingslayer shook her head, and continued to cast her gaze on the hot pot in front of her. She had long since given up the unrealistic thoughts in her heart. As for Tallulah, in her opinion, there was basically no possibility of success.

Nian is the only one who can keep up with Master Li's train of thought and keep up with him.

The next moment, Li Lin suddenly raised his head and showed a proud smile. He felt someone calling him.

"You guys stay in a daze here slowly, I'll run first."

He is offline.

In the office on the seventh floor of Hogwarts, Li Lin opened his eyes, and saw a swan wearing starlight was parked in front of the window, beating the windowpane with its mouth, making a rhythmic sound.

It was Qiu Zhang.

123 fluorescent flashes (super loud) [[-] in [-]]

Li Lin opened the window, and the starry swan flapped its wings and flew into the office, and then changed into Qiu Zhang again.

This young wizard who trusted Li Lin extremely, described to Li Lin what happened in Hogwarts in extremely concise and precise language.

"Professor, I think this must be because they are too obsessed with secret teachings." Qiu Zhang said, "With your help, the whole situation will definitely be reversed."

"No problem!"

Li Lin, who was lifted up to the sky, nodded proudly, got up and walked towards the door.

"Um...Professor Aatrox." Qiu Zhang organized his words with some difficulty, and pointed at Li Lin's upper body with some unbearable eyes, "You really don't want to wear any clothes? Going out?"

......

In the corridor on the seventh floor, Li Lin and Qiu Zhang walked side by side. After walking a few steps, thick gray fog overflowed from the end of the corridor and appeared in sight.

"The mysterious ruler above the gray fog..." Li Lin said suddenly.

"What?" Qiu Zhang couldn't hear Li Lin's muttering.

"A poor god friend of mine." Li Lin said casually, but his eyes fell on several influences that popped up on the dark green desktop.

[Influence: Frozen aura]

[Second-order winter effect. 】
