The Druid Master of Hogwarts

Dumbledore has been busy since Lupin brought back news of Greyback, as has the rest of the Order of the Phoenix.

After Tonks notified Kings, the Aurors did find some trace of Greyback, who had appeared near London and kidnapped a Muggle.

But the Aurors didn't find the Muggle, or his body, and he seemed to disappear with Greyback.

A few days later, Greyback returned to the werewolf colony alone, and as if nothing had happened, back to his usual routine—spreading his theory of werewolves ruling the world in the colony.

As for the unfortunate Muggle, members of the Order of the Phoenix speculated that he was probably killed by Greyback, but why Greyback kidnapped him is unknown.

In addition, Greyback will leave the werewolf settlement with several of his subordinates on the night of the full moon, wanting to increase the number of werewolves.

Fortunately, Lupin would warn the Order of the Phoenix at this time, which made Greyback's several attacks all ended in failure.

If that's the case, it doesn't actually involve too much energy from the Order of the Phoenix. After all, werewolves are far away from the crowd, and it takes a lot of time just to go back and forth, which is enough for the Order of the Phoenix to react.

But in addition to the werewolf, many Death Eaters also started activities one after another during this period. They carefully concealed their tracks and dispersed to various places, which made the Order of the Phoenix expend a lot of energy to verify what they did. what.

However, the number of the Order of the Phoenix is ​​far less than that of the Death Eaters. In addition, most of them usually have their own jobs. They cannot have a lot of free time like those pure-blooded nobles or dark creatures such as werewolves. It can be said that it is operating at overload.

And Dumbledore had to spend time and energy while searching for Horcruxes to find really useful content from these clues that were used to hide people's ears.

Then, after some inspection, he suddenly discovered that Greyback, who he thought was a smoke bomb before, seemed to be connected to the whereabouts of the last Horcrux.

Dumbledore wasn't sure if Voldemort was deliberately using this true or false way to hide his purpose, or if he went to great lengths just to set a trap for himself, but in any case, since there were clues about the Horcrux, Then he must not give up.

So he followed Greyback and the other clues he had collected and traced it all the way to a place close to London that could barely be called a village by the sea.

This village composed entirely of Muggles is built on the half waist of the cliff, and few people usually come here, but according to the clues found by Dumbledore, Greyback once appeared nearby.

In addition, Dumbledore is no stranger to this place, because he once followed the director of the Wu's orphanage who adopted Voldemort, and Mrs. Cole's memory came here - these are several locations where the orphanage organized outings back then one.

Unexpectedly, the Wu's Orphanage has been demolished, but this little village still exists.

Dumbledore did not enter the village, but avoided the people in the village and came to the edge of the steep cliff.

He looked down the cliff against the whistling sea wind, his white hair and long beard swaying wildly, forcing him to tuck them up with his hands and hold them firmly in his hands.

When Voldemort was young, he once took two orphans named Dennis Bishop and Amy Benson into a cave, and frightened them in it, and Dumbledore is now looking for that cave.

Fortunately, Dennis Bishop was still alive, which allowed Dumbledore to obtain the exact location of the cave from him.

It's just that the wild beard and hair and the surging waves below blocked Dumbledore's observation. It took him a long time to find the place in Dennis Bishop's memory.

Dumbledore, who had found the right position, activated his Apparition and came to a high black rock outcropping the sea. The waves rolled under his feet and foamed. Bare and desolate all around, except for the vast sea and rocks, not a single tree, no grass or sand.

Time and the washing of the waves made the environment around the rock slightly different from the scene in memory, but it was still possible to identify the general path to the cave.

Dumbledore confirmed his direction and crawled down the jagged grooves on the edge of the rock.

After a difficult climb, Dumbledore reached the bottom of the cliff, in an inconspicuous position, with a hidden crack, hidden in the shadow of the stone and the churning water, if not for the memory of Dennis. For reference, Dumbledore would not notice the existence of this crack at all.

Dumbledore first lit the wand with the Illuminating Charm, then took it in his mouth, and then slid gently into the water, swimming toward the dark crevice.

As he kept swimming inside, the fissure gradually turned into a dark passage, with slime and barnacle-covered rock walls only three feet wide, under the light of Dumbledore's wand, Gleaming wet like tar.

At the end of the water channel, there was an obvious step, which was never seen in Dennis' memory. Dumbledore looked in the direction of the step, and it really led to the cave in his memory.

Dumbledore climbed the steps, secretly relieved.

There are obvious traces on this step that have been washed by the sea for a long time, which at least shows that this is not a trap that Voldemort prepared temporarily, at least it is one of the secret places he used to.

But this doesn't mean it's not a trap. After all, Voldemort has always regarded werewolves as a useful tool. Dumbledore could hardly believe that he would expose his Horcrux to Greyback.

Even if Voldemort did tell Greyback about his Horcruxes, it wouldn't be a good thing, because Voldemort now knows that several of his Horcruxes have been destroyed, but he still doesn't care much about them, which shows that he is already working on it. Ready to make new Horcruxes... maybe even already made.

No matter what the situation was, Dumbledore still had to confirm what was inside. He waved his wand with a heavy heart, making his body dry and warm, and then walked to the center of the cave, raised his wand high, and slowly circled in place, carefully examining the rock wall and the cave. top.

The magic organs here are not of the same type as those in Gaunt's old house, and they are not aggressive, but hide the real entrance.

Dumbledore approached the wall of the cave and stroked it with his fingertips, whispering some strange language in his mouth. He walked around the cave twice from the right, touching the rough walls as much as he could, pausing occasionally to run his fingers up and down somewhere. Finally, he finally stopped and pressed his palm flat on the cave wall.

Dumbledore stepped back from the wall and pointed his wand at the rock. Suddenly, the outline of an arch appeared there, emitting a dazzling white light, as if there was a strong light shining behind the crack.

But as the light dissipated, the outline disappeared along with it, and the rock was as hard and thick as before, with nothing on it.

"Too low-level," said Dumbledore, with contempt, even disappointment, in his words.

Clearly, the apparatus that Voldemort had set up here did not meet the standards Dumbledore expected.

He took out a short silver knife that was usually used to cut potion ingredients from his robe, and cut his arm without hesitation.

As Dumbledore's blood spilled, the outline of the dazzlingly white arch appeared again on the walls of the cave, but this time it did not disappear. The blood-splattered rock in the arch disappeared suddenly, revealing a doorway that seemed to be endless darkness.

Inside the cave is a large black lake, which is extremely wide and endless. In the center of the lake, a dim, green light flickered.

Dumbledore walked silently around the shore of the lake, and he didn't know how long he had gone. He suddenly stopped, and then stretched out his hand to slowly paddle in the air, as if trying to find and grasp something invisible. .

After a few seconds, Dumbledore had a look of delight on his face, and then he closed his hands and caught something invisible in the air. At the same time, his other hand raised his wand and tapped his fist with the tip of the wand.

Immediately, a thick green copper chain suddenly emerged from the depths of the lake and rushed towards Dumbledore's clenched fist. Dumbledore tapped the chain with his wand, and the chain began to slid through his fist like a snake, coiling up in a pile on the ground, and the clanging sound echoed loudly against the rock wall~www.readwn.com~ .

After a while, the chain pulled a small boat up from the bottom of the lake. The boat glowed green like a chain and looked very ominous.

But Dumbledore boarded it without hesitation, and the boat immediately began to drive automatically, sending Dumbledore to the green light in the middle of the lake.

More than ten minutes later, the boat gently hit a smooth rocky island in the middle of the lake and stopped.

The island was about the size of Dumbledore's office: a large flat black slate, empty, save for the light source of that green light—which came from a pensieve-like stone basin, There is a base below.

Dumbledore approached the stone basin and looked into the stone basin. The stone basin was full of emerald green liquid, glowing with phosphorescence.

Dumbledore reached out and tried to touch the liquid in the basin, but found that he couldn't, and then he tried various methods, but found that he could not empty the liquid in the basin.

It was only when he scooped with the cup that the liquids in the basin were able to be filled into the cup, but when Dumbledore poured the liquids from the cup aside, they reappeared in the stone basin.

"I think...I probably know what happened to that poor Muggle..." Dumbledore put away the cup, looked at the dark lake around him, and murmured, "But...Voldemort really will be so important. leave it to a werewolf?"

Dumbledore stared at the lake and pondered for a long time, and finally nodded heavily as if he had made up his mind.

He returned to his senses and took a deep look at the green liquid in the stone basin. Only then did he board the boat again and carefully left the cave along the same path.
