Chapter 65: Secrets of the Abyss
Ulysses held a cup of hot tea in his hand, took a sip, and waited for the story in Dumbledore’s mouth.
Dumbledore was silent for a while, seeming to be organizing the language, thinking about where to start. After a while, he said softly:
“There is one thing you may already know. The second generation of the Dark Lord, Voldemort, graduated from Hogwarts.”
Ulysses listened quietly without comment. Before Dumbledore could speak, Ulysses made a secret decision, except for some secrets that could not be revealed for himself to keep, other things can no longer be deliberately hidden.
Seeing Ulysses’s expressionless expression, Dumbledore nodded slightly, and then said:
“You know. Voldemort’s real name is Tom Marvolo Riddle, and he studied at Hogwarts fifty years ago. At that time, I was a professor of his transformation class.”
“At that time, Tom had excellent talents, handsome Bufan, long-sleeved dance, good at winning people’s hearts and absorbing knowledge. In his student days, there were many followers, and even many professors were close to him. But I saw him for the first time. At that time, he was a kid who only used magic to bully and blackmail his peers.”
“I frightened him with the burning cupboard, so that he temporarily stopped those bad thoughts. But I made a mistake and I didn’t teach him well. To be honest, I was wary of him at the time, and he would leave. The thought of taking the road I don’t want to see keeps entwining me, so I keep a certain distance from him.”
“Later I realized that my attitude might indirectly push him to extremes. He formed collaborators at school and developed his power. At that time, the students said that Tom Riddle had a’dangerous and broken beauty.’ ‘.”
“A person’s origin is not important, what matters is what kind of person he grows into. Unfortunately, by the time I understand this truth, it is already too late.”
At this point, Dumbledore paused, took a sip of coffee, and his old eyes narrowed.
Ulysses noticed that in the portrait of the principal overheard, Armando Dippet’s face was red, and it seemed difficult to tell.
“And the man who was just now, the’Dark Chaser’, one of the highest status in the Abyss, is named Colby De Carmona. He was in the same period as Tom and was only a few terms younger than Tom. De Carmona is equally talented, and some professors are amazed by the curse’s accomplishments.”
“But De Carmona also surrendered to Tom’s charm and became one of Tom’s most loyal followers. After Tom left Hogwarts, he began to call himself Voldemort, and after several twists and turns, he joined a man named Abyss. The organization quickly emerged. After De Carmona graduated, he followed Tom’s footsteps without looking back and joined the abyss together.”
Dumbledore put down his coffee cup and rubbed his eyebrows. “I valued De Carmona very much because his nature had not yet been revealed. Originally, De Carmona still had feelings for the school, but then something happened. Let him stand on the opposite side of the school…”
Ulysses was silent. He didn’t ask what happened. Naturally, Dumbledore who should have said that, if he didn’t say it, he would just ask for nothing.
“Tom is one of the most talented wizards I have ever seen… He stood at the top of the abyss in just a few years. But after that, he suddenly turned away from the abyss, stood on his own, and followed him The dark wizards of the same followed and escaped from the abyss. Those people are now called Death Eaters.”
“Only De Carmona stayed in the abyss, maybe he didn’t want to leave, maybe he and Tom had an agreement… I don’t know.”
“After exiting the abyss, Tom asked the abyss not to touch the British territory. At that time Tom was in full swing among the dark wizards. No one was his opponent except for the three mysterious leaders who barely showed up. The abyss can only be seen. Do.”
“So to put it bluntly, the Abyss nominally has seven people with the highest status, but three are missing. Tom has withdrawn. In fact, there are only three people involved.”
Ulysses nodded thoughtfully and suddenly said:
“Three…Professor Lockhart told me about two of them. One is the “Dark Chaser” and the other is “Mandala”. It sounds like a female. Who is the other one? ?”
Dumbledore glanced at him and said slowly:
“Thousand-faced people. The main sphere of influence of that line… is in France.”
Ulysses was shocked, his pupils shrinking slightly.
“After Tom died in Harry’s hands more than ten years ago, the British magical world ushered in a brief peace. But in recent years, the tentacles of the abyss have gradually entangled back toward Britain. De Carmona is back this time. , It should also be to rebuild power in the UK.”
After Dumbledore finished speaking, he looked at the dappled starry sky outside the window, as if he was reminiscing about the past. Then, he said with emotion:
“You don’t know, the abyss once invited me.”
Ulysses raised his brow and said:
“With your strength, I am not surprised.”
“That was almost a hundred years ago.”
Dumbledore leaned back in the soft chair, his body relaxed completely, his eyes were a little loose and he said.
“At that time, another person and I were both invited. However, we all declined. That person proudly said that he could accomplish something great on his own without needing to join other people’s organizations. And I refused. reason……”
Dumbledore’s eyes suddenly became sharp, “Their style and behavior are extremely bad, they regard human life as horrible, and they are keen on a series of terrible human studies. They believe that no matter what kind of power, the combination with the human body is the most perfect one. Yes. Not only magic lines, alchemy, the blood of magical creatures, and even the science and technology of ordinary people’s world are their research goals. In my eyes, life is the most precious and respectable thing in the world.”
The light in the room was a little soft, and Phoenix Fox flew out of the cage, and it flew to Dumbledore’s shoulder with flapping wings, rubbing his pale beard affectionately.
“Different road non-phase plan.”
Ulysses said in agreement.
“In your memory, I saw the battle. To be honest, even I was a little surprised. Tom didn’t have such a huge magical power and such an amazing spell in the third grade, especially the dragon with blue eyes… …That’s your idea?”
“Yes, Professor, Professor Babling and I have completed the production of the magic pattern card together.”
Ulysses nodded.
“Very good, genius idea.”
Dumbledore exclaimed, and the topic turned, his expression became a little serious, “Ulysses, I will not punish you for using the Avadasuo Mantra. After all, the situation was urgent. But I must remind you. , In the next time you have to adjust your own mentality, the Avadasuo Mantra may quietly swallow your reason and brew your murderous intent.”
