Chapter 213 Time Loop Ends
Principal's office.
After watching William's memories, Dumbledore took him out of the Pensieve and returned to the room.
The headmaster closed his eyes and thought for a long time before he let out a long breath, and his worries became heavier.
"William, your memory is important.
I've always wanted to get a closer look at Voldemort's state, and this episode confirmed many of my suspicions, especially regarding his magic of immortality. "
"What kind of magic, Professor?" William asked curiously.
"I can't tell you yet that the entire chain of evidence lacks the most critical physical evidence." Dumbledore sighed and began to change the subject.
"Since you came to me with your memory, you naturally want to leave the time loop. Is there anything unclear? About the whole thing."
William nodded, and began to ask with ease:
"Didn't Quirrell become a ghost? Why did Voldemort occupy his body?"
Dumbledore leaned back on the chair, crossed his hands, pondered for a moment and said, "It's a long story. When I was in the Forbidden Forest, I told you that Voldemort has always controlled Quirrell."
William nodded slightly.
"In fact, he's on the back of Quirrell's head."
William was dumbfounded.
Some time ago, he offered high rewards to let the students explore the things under the scarves, and what's more, he even carried out various violent beatings... The Dark Lord's face was all emotionally beaten?
This is a big joke!
Wait, William doesn't seem to have done it himself, but the Slytherin students are the most desperate and merciless.
It's a pity that there is no evidence left, otherwise, after Voldemort rises again, the evidence will be packaged to him.
Among the parents of these students, there should be many Death Eaters, such as Lucius Malfoy.
Pity……
William felt a little sorry.
Dumbledore didn't notice William's distraction, he continued: "This kind of host parasitism will greatly reduce Quirrell's vitality, especially after fighting you twice, Quirrell probably only has a few months of life left. up.
I guess it was then that Voldemort suddenly had the idea of giving up on Quirrell. "
Dumbledore narrowed his eyes and said calmly:
"Voldemort certainly had no friends, and his men were servants.
He can sacrifice anyone, even if this person once helped him.
So Voldemort asked Quirrell to die in the restricted area, and then used black magic to transform him into a ghost.
After Quirrell turned into a ghost, he confused a wave of audiovisuals and tried to make me relax my vigilance, but Voldemort himself remained hidden in the school until today. "
"But isn't a ghost unable to touch others? I think he can touch Harry." William asked doubtfully.
"William, do you know how Peeves was formed?" Dumbledore raised his right hand slightly, and a book floated over.
"I don't know." William was indeed always curious about why Peeves was different from ordinary ghosts.
"Peeves has been living in the castle since the founding of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft and Wizardry.
To be precise, he was born with the whole building, especially when the castle gathered a large number of children.
He was a strange creature formed by the minds of the students. "
Dumbledore handed William the Hogwarts Mystery.
William took a quick glance at Peeves' content on it.
It records the reason why Peeves was born, and the content of the school administrator's struggle with him.
"I think more than once that Voldemort is the most outstanding student at Hogwarts, and he used the special environment of the school to transform Quirrell into this form.
After that, he sacrificed Quirrell's soul with black magic and created a short-lived body, even though this body is different from the general sense of the body. "
"Then why can't he touch Harry's body? I saw him touch Harry's body with a painful expression."
"I told you once, William." Dumbledore showed an extremely sad expression: "Lily cast a spell to protect Harry."
"Prehistoric mysteries." William said.
"That's right, that power was extraordinarily powerful. It not only deflected Voldemort's death curse, but also left the power of love in Harry's body, protecting him until he became an adult.
That power was in Harry's blood and skin, and it was for this reason that Quirrell couldn't touch him.
Quirrell was full of hatred, greed and ambition, and he sold his soul to Voldemort. He would feel unbearable pain when he touched a person marked with Lily's power, especially in his state at that time. "
Dumbledore told William more than once about prehistoric mysteries, until today when he saw Quirrell, he found that this power is really powerful.
Dumbledore seemed to know what William was thinking, he explained: "I know you are curious about where the prehistoric mysteries are, and I do know a little bit."
Dumbledore waved his wand, and a phantom of a building appeared in front of William.
"This is the Ministry of Magic. On the ninth floor underground, there is a Department of Mysteries."
William said: "I've heard from the Department of Mysteries that Tywin is the Time-Turner that was stolen here."
Dumbledore nodded, "That's right, but there's more than just a Time-Turner hidden here.
Most of the content of this department is highly classified.Only a very small number of wizards in the Ministry of Magic can know what is in this department.
The Department of Mysteries studies many of the mysteries of the world, such as love, space, thought, time, death, and more.
These things are all extensions of prehistoric mysteries.
In the depths of the Department of Mysteries, there is a locked room, which contains some prehistoric mysteries, which cannot be opened even after centuries of research by the Ministry of Magic. "
William squinted his eyes. This was the first time Dumbledore told him the whereabouts of the prehistoric secrets.
But since the Ministry of Magic hadn't been able to open it for centuries, William didn't think he could.
Just because he is handsome?nonexistent.
Dumbledore leaned back on the chair, relaxed and said, "Is there any more questions?"
"Last one, where did that basilisk come from?"
"Oh, you asked a question that embarrassed me too." Dumbledore sighed.
"Should you have checked at the Quidditch field?"
"Exactly."
After the basilisk was killed, William searched for traces of the basilisk through the deep underground cave, but found nothing.
Because there is a section of pipeline underground in the center of the Quidditch field, leading directly to the Black Lake.
In other words, the basilisk swam from the Black Lake, and then came out of the Quidditch field through a pipe.
But the Black Lake is too big.
"There is such a legend that Salazar Slytherin built an underground building under Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry - the Chamber of Secrets."
Dumbledore summoned a book again and handed it to William.
"Slytherin sealed the Chamber of Secrets before he left, so that no one could open it until his true heir arrived at the school.
Only the heir can open the secret room, release the horror inside, let it purify the school, and remove all those who are not worthy of learning magic. "
"The scary thing is the basilisk?" William asked doubtfully.
"I think what Slytherin left behind was indeed a basilisk." Dumbledore said seriously.
"But he kept the basilisk for something else, never to get rid of Muggle-born students.
In fact, rumors of the Chamber of Secrets only began to circulate at Hogwarts centuries after Slytherin left the school. "
"Someone deliberately misrepresented Slytherin?" William raised an eyebrow.
"That's right." Dumbledore obviously didn't want to talk deeply, he said lightly: "Voldemort found the Basilisk, put it on the Quidditch field, and attracted me away, so that he will have enough time to deal with Harry and take Take the Sorcerer's Stone."
William nodded. He had fully understood the whole matter without any doubts.
The ring on the index finger of his right hand suddenly became hot, and an eagle flew out of the ring and stood on William's shoulder.
It stared at Dumbledore, then suddenly grabbed William by the shoulders and brought him up.
William fell into a whirlpool, and when he woke up again, he was already lying on his bed.
The time loop is finally over.
