After all, in the dream, he is just a statue, and the position is not very good, and what he can see is limited.
Not to mention, there was no light in that room except for the hazy moonlight.
And it doesn't make much sense, there are too many arches made of blue light and mist, so many that it dazzles him.
"Too risky, Dumbledore, too risky, we can't go in!" Moody said immediately, "We can't be sure which door is the right one, any one is possible, if this is Voldemort's one Conspiracy, we may all be buried here, and he doesn't even have to take action."
Mad-Eye's worry is indeed justified, and this may indeed be a conspiracy.
Voldemort deliberately used Harry to lure them here, using the magic left by Grindelwald to kill them.
Dumbledore didn't speak, he looked carefully at the area Harry was pointing at, as if identifying options.
The full moon in the sky was once again shrouded in dark clouds, the voice of speaking gradually subsided, and the fear gradually increased in the silence.
Ivan, Harry, Sirius, and Moody all looked at Dumbledore, waiting for his choice.
Nervousness and unease hung over everyone, and if they entered the wrong door, they would die instantly, and everyone was thinking about it.
Everyone present was not afraid of death, but that didn't mean they were willing to die in such an unclear and meaningless way.
Chapter 1014 Lost Elaine
It is already very close to the Arctic Circle, and even through thick clothes, the icy chill in the wasteland still penetrates into the bone marrow.
Aiwen doesn't like this place, whether it's the moon in the sky that has been covered by dark clouds, or the light blue glacier-like ground, or the choice between life and death in front of him, it all gives him an unpleasant feeling.
He didn't know how the Vikings in the past survived in this environment, and why Durmstrang chose such a place for school. He could feel the evil and violent magic in the dark. There are forces in this land that they don't understand, forces that are not friendly.
Even if they choose the right door, what awaits them may not be easy. One Voldemort is enough to cause headaches, not to mention there is a dark wizard Grindelwald who may be even more powerful than him, hiding in the dark and gradually recovering. The evil god of power, and the strange, strange, and powerful forces buried under this land.
It's hard to imagine that a few hours ago, they were still discussing the girl's matter in the warm and safe castle.
Ivan reorganized the whole thing silently, and began to be unsure that Voldemort would show such an important thing to Harry.
This matter is related to the statue of the evil god, which is now his new Horcrux, and it is Voldemort's most important secret.
Something like Mr. Weasley being attacked couldn't be compared to that.
"Maybe it's because he just made the Horcrux, and the soul is not stable yet."
Ivan assumed this, so Harry took advantage of the loophole and saw things he shouldn't see.
But it is also possible that, as Mad-Eye said, they were deliberately lured to this place, using the magic left by Grindelwald to kill them.
Dumbledore is still observing every arched door in the area Harry is pointing at, hoping to find something unusual from these doors, and then make the right choice. Ivan knows that the knocking on the door mainly lies in Magic changes.
But he didn't know exactly what the difference was. He approached some places and prepared to learn this technique with Dumbledore.
Ivan didn't dare to disturb Dumbledore, he walked to the other side, experiencing the difference between each door.
The blue haze spreads around with the boulder as the main body, and strange magic power escapes from it.
This is a powerful magic that involves a fair degree of spatial theory.
Suddenly, Ai Wen heard rustling noises, and there was something hidden in the gap between two rocks not far away.
He hurriedly raised his wand, hesitated for a moment, and approached cautiously. The fire dragon flying in the air just now left a deep impression on Ivan. There are many dangerous creatures nearby, and there may be something hidden inside.
The space between the rocks is not large, so it should not be a large animal.
If it weren't for the harsh environment here, there might be a lost kitten inside.
Ivan walked over, and then, under the light of the wand, he saw a pair of eyes through the cracks in the rock, and looked out cautiously.
The wine-red pupils are pure, bright and agile, and the panic and uneasiness in them cannot be concealed.
The four eyes met, and a familiar feeling rose from the bottom of Ivan's heart. He had only seen one person with such eyes.
In the next second, a red magic light flew out from the crack in the rock.
The wand in Aiwen's hand quickly lifted up, collided with the red light, a group of bright sparks flashed, and immediately returned to calm.
"Elaine, is that you?" Ivan asked hurriedly, he was familiar with both eyes and magic.
This guy really hasn't improved, and he still uses the tricks he used two years ago to deal with him.
Aiwen was easily subdued by Elaine at the time, but now this magic is nothing to him.
"Ewen!" A weak, slightly hoarse girl's voice came from the rock.
A few pieces of rubble were pushed away by her, and Ivan saw Elaine hiding in a small space between the rocks.
She wore a pink straw hat on her head, and her body was trembling slightly.
Just like on the night of Christmas two years ago, he saw the girl curled up in the dark doorway, alone humming a slow-paced, beautifully melodious song. At this moment, Elaine was curled up like a small animal. in rock crevices.
She has grown a little taller, but she is still slender and thin, but she does not give people the feeling of malnutrition. With a delicate face like a porcelain doll, and wine red pupils, it is pleasing to the eye and intoxicating.
She was wearing a baggy black gown, the cuffs of which had been rolled up several times so that they barely fell off.
There were still bloodstains on her chest, all of which were drops of blood that accidentally fell on it. It seemed that her eating was still very bad.
She had been frozen stiff, and her little face, which was already bloodless, was abnormally pale. She held the wand in front of her with both hands.
Seeing Ai Wen who suddenly appeared, tears fell uncontrollably.
It is really a lost kitten, also stranded here waiting for rescue.
"Ewen, you..." Elaine's voice was very low, and she was interrupted before she could finish speaking.
"What happened?" Harry, Sirius, and Moody all ran over when they heard the noise.
Only Dumbledore was unmoved, still standing there and carefully observing the arches.
He seemed to have discovered the existence of Elaine a long time ago, and was not surprised by it.
"Who is this girl?" Moody said cautiously, his magic eyes spun quickly and swept across the rocks, "Why are you here?"
"She is my friend, Elaine Slytherin!" Ivan explained, "Karesis' niece."
He didn't know why Elaine was here, hiding among the rocks.
Logically speaking, shouldn't she be in the vampire's lair?
Elaine pushed away the gravel in front of her, and didn't crawl out from the crevice of the rock, but just looked at Ivan, tears falling uncontrollably.
There was anxiety and joy in her eyes, two completely different emotions mixed together.
Elaine moved, as if he had no strength to stand up, and soon, Ivan knew that this guy was frozen and unable to move.
He sighed, he really is a guy with zero survivability, doesn't he even know how to keep warm? !
He waved his wand to part the rocks and lifted Elaine out.
Aiwen also often hugs Hermione. He has accumulated a lot of experience and grown a lot, so his movements are naturally very skilled.
Unlike Harry, he would still be nervous for a long time if he touched a girl now.
Compared with Hermione, Elaine seems to have no weight, and her body doesn't even have temperature.
She hangs on Ivan, I don't know if it is an illusion, Ivan always feels that she is habitually looking at the blood vessels on his neck...
You know, this girl has always wanted to bite Ai Wen's neck and suck some blood out, and she never forgot about it.
Of course, in her words, this is a first embrace, and it is also a good thing for Aiwen, turning him into a vampire.
And this is the first time Elaine has bitten someone, she can't wait to taste Ivan's blood!
The girl wholeheartedly wanted to leave the first time to Ai Wen, but this incident left a shadow in Ai Wen's heart.
As soon as he saw Elaine now, he felt that she was going to bite him.
Of course, Elaine is very cute and beautiful, and this is the first time, but Aiwen doesn't want to be bitten by someone and have a blood exchange...
The main reason is that he doesn't want to bleed, it's too barbaric, if other exchanges, the other party bleeds, he doesn't object.
Chapter 1015 Elaine's Information
The sudden appearance of Elaine was a windfall.
Mad-Eye and Sirius had a lot of things they wanted to ask her, but their appearance seemed to scare her.
She didn't say anything, just buried her head in Aiwen's arms.
In the end, only Ivan can ask questions, because only he can get a response from Elaine.
"What are you doing hiding in the rock?" Ivan started looking for clothes for Elaine, this guy wore too little!
"I heard a noise and knew someone was coming, so I hurried in. I didn't expect it to be you!" Elaine said aggrievedly, and put down her wand, "Ivan, if I knew it was you, I wouldn't hide, you Did you come to help me?"
"Hmm!" Aiwen could only nod his head to this kind of nonsensical question, "What's going on?"
Harry, Sirius, and Mad-Eye Moody watched her too, waiting for her explanation and more information.
Everything that happened tonight was so sudden and confusing that they didn't know anything except the dream Harry had seen.
The appearance of Elaine may be able to solve related questions for them.
"I sneaked out here with my uncle, he's been really freaking out lately, it's disturbing me, and this evening he gave me the wand that my ancestor Salazar Slytherin left behind, and he said it would Protect me from being affected by that thing, he told me to leave with everyone and never come back, or go to the United States, or go to the UK to find you, he let me choose." Elaine said, her face was hard to hide Weak, sad and exhausted, "I don't know what happened, but I can feel that everyone in the whole family is crazy, or is falling into madness. During these days, panic and anxiety have spread within the family, They were affected by it and gradually became abnormal, and many people disappeared and never came back, my uncle said it was their fate."
"That thing?" Ivan looked at her hesitantly, and Elaine's words revealed a lot of information.
It seemed that, for some reason, the vampire had begun to crumble inside.Many people disappeared, and the "disappearance" here is not as simple as leaving or escaping. Since Keresis mentioned fate, they are almost dead, but why? !
And he gave Elaine the wand left by Slytherin, saying it would protect her.
Ivan saw Elaine take out a white wand from his bosom, about ten inches long, with many tiny red lines on it, and the Slytherin family crest engraved on the end, a capital S letter like a poisonous snake, right It was Salazar's own wand.
As soon as he got the wand, Ivan felt his magic power become active.
Needless to say, this wand has great power, like the Elder Wand can unleash powerful magic, Ivan has no doubts about this, but Kelexis said it can protect Elaine from that thing , this sentence is very strange.
"Elaine, what are you talking about that will affect you?"
"I don't know, no one told me, no matter how I asked, they didn't say it, because of my uncle's protection, I didn't feel it, but everyone else heard a voice speaking to them, and the tribe never dared to discuss it That thing, they say it will hear, and if they have to mention it, they just use it instead."
"Okay, is this the trouble you told me about your family?" Ivan asked in a different direction.
"Well, that's it!" Elaine nodded vigorously, and added, "Everyone in the family knows its existence, that it was left by the ancestor Salazar Slytherin, and that it has great power. But no one knows what it is, only the uncle and a few elders know, and only they have seen it..."
Several people looked at each other, and things seemed to be getting weirder.
A trouble left by Salazar Slytherin, but most vampires don't know what this trouble is, they dare not even mention it, this thing seems to be alive, and has a lot of power, It will affect vampires, talk to them, what the hell is this thing?
No matter how it sounds, it is very scary. Could it be part of the body of the evil god that Salazar took away back then? !
"We have noticed the change of the vampire, what are you going to do?" Moody asked suddenly, he had reported this matter to Dumbledore for a long time just now.
Sirius also said that most members of the Order of the Phoenix are now guarding there because they are worried about what Voldemort and the vampires will do.
Elaine didn't answer right away. She looked at Mad-Eye in fear, and shrank back into Aiwen's arms. Whether it was a face full of scars, a broken nose, or the magic eyes that kept turning, she felt Feeling scared, she raised her head and looked at Ai Wen, and only said what she knew after getting an affirmative answer.
"Uncle told them to escape to the United States, because our efforts to seal it failed, and there is no point in staying here! There is ancient magic in the United States that may protect them from harm, and the clansmen are saying that this is the last If there is no chance, stay here, once that thing comes, they can't run away!"
"Escape?!" Ivan was stunned for a moment, "A few months ago, you decided to ask Voldemort to help you solve it. I also told your uncle that if you need my help, just tell me why it has become With such an appearance, I have no choice but to escape, you can seal it..."
"It failed. They didn't tell me what happened. They kept it from me. I guessed it myself, but it's almost the same." When this topic was mentioned, Elaine's tears flowed uncontrollably again. "Voldemort didn't help us, and the attempt to seal again failed. I told my uncle that we should go to you, but he didn't agree. He said that the power of that thing was growing, and the strongest seal left by Salazar himself was about to be broken. , no matter who it is, there is no way..."
"Don't cry, I'm here for everything!" Ai Wen wiped away her tears, "Tell me everything you know."
"Yeah!" Elaine nodded, and then wiped away tears with Aiwen's clothes, "Uncle said, our family has been guarding here for thousands of years, not only to fulfill the behest of our ancestors, but also to protect ourselves , because once it breaks free from the seal and is restricted by blood, everyone in our family will die. Since a few years ago, the power of the seal left by Salazar has been weakening, and the family has been trying to strengthen the seal again, but all have failed. A lot of people are saying that only the man mentioned in the prophecy can help us, but we have chosen the wrong man, Voldemort is not the man, and all previous efforts have been lost."
Ivan already knew that prophecy, and the vampires finally chose Voldemort, which seemed to have failed.
Apart from the trouble of breaking through the seal, what happened to the ruins in the process is the most important thing.
Voldemort seems to have gained a lot. He even dared to make the statue of the evil god into his Horcrux, and even reached an agreement with the evil god.
If he didn't know anything, Ivan didn't believe he dared to do it.
However, what Elaine knows is limited, and he has to ask Keresis for more information.
Chapter 1016 Shocking ending
Elaine unpacks some doubts and raises many more, all crucial ones.
"Uncle said that there is something that must be done before leaving. Because of his mistake, Voldemort knew some secrets that he shouldn't know. He must solve this trouble, otherwise things will become more chaotic." Elaine continued , "I had a bad premonition, because he gave me Salazar's wand, which has been kept by the patriarch. So I just sneaked out tonight and came here with my uncle, but I couldn't crack it Magic, he has been in for more than ten minutes!"
"I know something about this, and that's why we're here tonight," Ivan said.
In this case, it was really difficult to explain to Elaine about his uncle.
