Chapter 877 The Wall of Weeping
at dusk,
North Wind Xiaoxiao
Snowflakes flutter.
It's as cold as frozen iron, and you can stick your tongue on it immediately.
There is also a thick layer of ice on the ground... Flies fly up to split the fork, mosquitoes step on it and slip.
Eight swallow-tailed dogs turned into sled dogs, steadily pulling the big sled, running wildly in the snow.
On the sled, stood a handsome old man:
He was tall and thin, with short white hair and a goatee that ended in little curls on his thin chin.
Karkaroff on the outside, but the big black Sirius on the inside, looks chic... but he's frozen like a dog.
He couldn't help scolding Merlin... his father.
Sirius feels that he is really idle, he does not sit in a warm and comfortable carriage, he insists on seeking excitement, and feels the Nordic sled!
It's all right now, the biting cold wind randomly stuffed it into my mouth!
He wrapped the thick animal skin tightly, and stuck the warm-up badges made by Akali's mysterious shop in his underwear.
But it's tens of degrees below zero, and nothing works... All five limbs are frozen, and it feels like a little force will break.
The damn weather!
Fortunately, as a magical animal, swallowtail dogs are much faster than sled dogs.
They rushed down along the ridge, and soon arrived at the castle, stopping securely five meters before the steps.
Sirius jumped out of the sled and hurried towards the castle.
Compared with the luxurious Hogwarts castle, Durmstrang's castle is a bit dwarfed and slightly shabby.
It has only four floors, and it is shrouded in ice and snow all year round, like a small iceberg.
But this castle has a good thing, that is, there are complicated pipelines inside, which are always breathing heat.
Don't look at the tens of degrees below zero outside, but it's more than ten degrees in the room.
Of course, this is the current situation.
When Karkaroff was the headmaster, in order to save money, he turned off all the heating, and only kept the heating in the professor's office.
That's right, Karkaroff is just so tasteless... He put all the money he saved into his own pocket.
After Sirius came, he immediately got rid of this behavior and provided unlimited heating.
This move also made the students feel much better about him.
There was a deeper reason for Sirius to do this... He was afraid that one day he would stand in Karkaroff's face and be assassinated by the students.
It's not impossible.
After coming to Durmstrang, Sirius discovered that the headmaster of this school... had a high death rate.
How high is it?
Let's just say, worse than the Defense Against the Dark Arts professorship at Hogwarts.
The Defense Against the Dark Arts position has only been problematic in recent decades, but what about Durmstrang?
That has been going on for hundreds of years!
For example, the first principal, Nerida Vokanova, a great Bulgarian witch who lived in the Middle Ages, founded Durmstrang College.
Later, she died mysteriously in office.
As the headmaster's successor, Harfon Monte, he carried out educational reforms immediately after taking office, and established a teaching tradition that focused on duels and war magic.
In other words, he was the one who first advocated teaching students the Dark Arts.
And his tenure also opened the first dark period in the history of Durmstrang.
The most ironic thing is that Monte, as an advocate of black art teaching, was finally killed by students using the black art he taught...
And 1792, the last Triwizard Tournament.
The chicken-body snake-tailed monster with the most face, rampaged during the competition, causing all the principals of the three schools to be injured.
You thought this was the end of the story?
No, the story does not end here...
The principal of Durmstrang, after returning to school, ate a bowl of beef noodles, and died on the third day because of his injuries.
Otherwise, how could the Triwizard Tournament be suspended? !
When the students die, they die, but when the principal dies, it's a disaster!
Also, why was 16-year-old Grindelwald fired?
Is it really just because the black magic experiments he conducted are too dangerous for students?
Do not!
It was too dangerous for the then headmaster, Oberon.
People are afraid in their hearts, afraid of being killed by their own students.
After all, Durmstrang has always had a tradition of killing masters to preach.
Oberon was right, Grindelwald was indeed too dangerous.
On the [-]th anniversary of the expulsion of the original Dark Lord, the old headmaster was shot in the head with a magic wand by the Witch Party.
What about the cause of death?
Fire the Dark Lord Grindelwald.
You say embarrassing is not embarrassing.
So Sirius was terrified.
He accepts high-profile interviews every day and calls for William to be a professor in Durmstrang. Do you think he is joking?
Do not!
That was a hint to William from a distance, come on... otherwise you won't see Dahei.
Don't look at being a principal, you can do whatever you want every day, but Sirius is only happy on the surface, but bitter in his heart.
Go down the stairs and quickly enter the main hall hidden deep underground.
The castle at this moment seems to have the atmosphere of a tomb.
Like a movie theater passage in the dark, the stairs are illuminated by responsive footlights every step of the way.
Sirius continued to walk down and came to the main hall underground, a large space gradually revealed from the shadows.
Outside the hall, there is a windshield with a large Durmstrang badge:
A double-headed eagle and a deer head with Cyrillic letters.
On the side of the school badge is the mark left by Grindelwald before he was expelled and left the school:
A triangular one-eyed shape that looks like a rune.
No one recognizes this pattern, but Durmstrang's students all call it Grindelwald's mark.
Back then, Principal Oberon was headshot in front of this wall, and the blood was sprayed on the wall, which has not been cleaned up yet.
Therefore, this wall is also called the Wailing Wall, and also the Wall of Death.
Sirius stood in front of the wall, observed for a while, and then walked towards the principal's office.
He left school today because a house elf sent him a courier - from Hogwarts in England.
It looks like it was sent by William, because only the Akali mysterious store will use the house elf to deliver the express.
And there are only a handful of wizards who know the mission of Sirius.
After entering the principal's office, Sirius immediately opened the package and found a dilapidated metal cabinet inside.
He didn't recognize the cabinet for what it was, but it looked like a safe.
Could it be that William sent him a life-saving outfit?
Or, William was inside, deliberately surprising him?
Sirius was about to open it when he heard a banging sound from inside the cabinet.
He took out his wand vigilantly, with cold eyes and vigorous movements, and carefully opened the cabinet door.
he……
Stand still.
A creature floated out wearing a cloak. Its whole body seemed to be soaked in water, with scabbed palms and a rotting body.
The dementor saw Sirius and ran directly towards him.
Sirius was also trembling, because the fear of 12 years in prison came back to his heart.
Is the law enforcement of the British Ministry of Magic already so powerful? !
The cross-border pursuit has begun!
Snapped!
Sirius felt that the joy was gone.
……
