Chapter 942 Grindelwald: Show Me a Face

Grindelwald knew the power of a nuclear bomb.

Even before nuclear bombs were invented, he knew through prophecy that Muggles would create powerful explosions.

Although at that time, Grindelwald didn't know that it was a nuclear explosion.

However, the wizarding world has never been interested in the Muggle world. Their complacency is as serious as that of the Muggles. Wizards reject new things, refuse to change, and look down on all things Muggle from the bottom of their hearts.

That's why Grindelwald chose such a remote place as the wizard's base and cast many protective spells to avoid Muggle attacks.

But now it seems that everything is in vain.

boom!
boom!
boom!
Mushroom clouds continued to rise, forcing Grindelwald and Snape to stay away.

They escaped, but it was obvious that all the wizards in the base were in danger.

"You? You brought them here?"

Grindelwald pointed his wand at Snape angrily.

It was such a coincidence that the base was attacked shortly after he arrived, not to mention that Snape had a history of informing on others.

To which Snape simply shook his head: "I don't."

Grindelwald was so angry that his hands were shaking, but he resisted the urge to attack.

In fact, he also understood that Snape had no grudge against him. Even if Snape wanted to inform on him, he would not be so crazy as to explode himself, so it must be someone else who leaked the information.

But Grindelwald simply couldn't accept it. He had united most of the wizarding world and was about to launch a counterattack against the Muggles, but he failed at this very moment.

However, in the eyes of Li Ming, who was secretly watching the show, Grindelwald's failure was almost inevitable.

Because the limitations of wizards are so great that Grindelwald's caution alone cannot make up for it.

Even though the war has lasted for such a long time, there are still many wizards who have strong rejection and arrogance towards Muggles, and the most prominent among them are the wizards of the Beautiful Country led by Grindelwald.

Because when they were fighting against the British army on the battlefield in England, the English side was fighting on their own soil and were afraid to use force, so they gained a huge advantage, which made the wizards of the United States swell up.

They are indeed obsessed with Grindelwald's ideas, but that does not affect their contempt for Muggles.

In short: can’t carry it.

Of course, Grindelwald had experienced many ups and downs after all. He quickly adjusted his mentality and began to think about future countermeasures.

The base camp was attacked and all the wizards there were wiped out, but a small number of wizards were not in the base camp and managed to escape.

However, the few remaining people are obviously unable to confront the Muggles head-on.

Moreover, Grindelwald still doesn't know how the information was leaked. If he gathers people again, he will at least be hit by a few nuclear bombs.

Let the wizards break up into small groups and launch attacks on Muggle armies or cities?
Grindelwald really didn't want that to happen, because if he did that, the wizard would become a terrorist and would completely lose his voice.

"Where is Dumbledore?" he suddenly asked Snape.

At the moment, Grindelwald’s best option is to join up with Mordred and the others. After all, the two sides are allies.

But he didn't know how to contact Mordred, and the current situation made Grindelwald dare not trust anyone else, unless that person was Dumbledore.

As an old lover, Grindelwald knew Dumbledore inside and out and understood that the nuclear bomb incident had absolutely nothing to do with Dumbledore.

"I don't know." Snape shook his head, but then he changed his tone and said, "But maybe they will find a way."

"They?" Grindelwald frowned. "Who?"

Snape named two professors at Hogwarts: "Jerome Valeska and Jonathan Crane."

"They are all outsiders," Snape added.

Grindelwald himself was well aware of the methods of the outsiders. After all, he relied on the power of the outsiders to regain his youth.

Although he had his doubts, Grindelwald was also worried that Dumbledore would be killed if time went on, so he went with Snape to look for Jerome and the others.

Jerome, who was monitoring the nuclear bomb hitting the target in real time, was leaving the human command center with the Scarecrow.

Their next target location was the gathering place of European wizards, where wizards who did not want to go to war with Muggles stayed together for warmth.

Because these wizards did not want to join the war, the Muggles had no intention of attacking them.

When Jerome and the others arrived, they found that Snape had been waiting here for a while.

"Where have you been?"

Snape asked as soon as he saw them.

"To find happiness," Jerome answered casually.

But Snape glanced at him and the scarecrow twice, then took a step away calmly, obviously misunderstanding something.

"There is someone who wants to see you," said Snape.

"New friends?" Jerome's eyes lit up. "I love making friends the most, hahaha."

He was in a pretty good mood because he got a hint when the nuclear bomb went off.

[The reincarnationist on our side has died]

Ebony Maw was so unlucky that he happened to be at the base camp when the nuclear bomb hit. He was immediately hit by several mushroom eggs and became acquainted with other wizards without saying a word.

Ebony Maw has always been regarded by Jerome as his number one enemy in the Captain's Championship. Now that Ebony Maw has been killed, the remaining Fish and Ivy pose almost no threat to him.

Fish is Jerome's second biggest enemy when he was captain, but Fish's personal strength is not that strong. She needs the right time, place and people to win in the end. This time Jerome directly occupied the important area of ​​Hogwarts, and Fish basically had no chance.

As for Ivy...

The ability to control plants is indeed very strong, especially after being strengthened by the reincarnation space, Ivy's strength is even more amazing.

But the embarrassing thing is that human thermal weapons are almost the natural enemies of plants, especially in the case of such a large-scale war. Ivy's current strength cannot break through this limitation, so even if her strength ranks second in the team, she can only play a supporting role every time.

Soon, Jerome and the Scarecrow saw Grindelwald hiding in the corner.

His identity is sensitive, so he naturally cannot appear in public.

After seeing Grindelwald and hearing Snape's introduction, Jerome was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the leader of the opposite side actually escaped.

Then he smiled as if he was watching a good show and asked directly: "What do you want to do?"

"Can you find where Dumbledore is?" Grindelwald knew that he couldn't be slow when communicating with an outsider, so he stated his purpose in the first sentence.

"The Valeska Chamber of Commerce is spread throughout the wizarding and Muggle worlds. If you look carefully, you will find it."

Jerome nodded, and then he deliberately asked: "Why? Are you planning to take advantage of Dumbledore's poor condition and challenge him to another battle of the century to win back?"

Grindelwald frowned. This outsider in front of him... didn't seem very serious.

However, Grindelwald did not feel offended. Instead, he had a good impression of Jerome and the other man.

Because he saw Jerome and the Scarecrow inseparable, he was obviously thinking of the two young men who had been in Godric's Hollow.

"The wizard base was attacked by Muggles, you should know about it, right?" Grindelwald asked. Jerome nodded, of course they knew, after all, he was the one who almost informed on them.

"Yes, we just came back from the Muggle Command Center. Although we didn't see the details, we found several dark wizards there."

"Dark wizard?"

Grindelwald felt a surge of anger.

As smart as he was, he figured everything out immediately.

These dark wizards must be greedy for wealth and fame, so they sold out all the wizards!

"What a bunch of... shit!"

In fact, compared to Muggles killing many wizards at once, Grindelwald hates these informant dark wizards more.

Muggles use ultimate means because of war, and if they lose, it means they are not as skilled as their opponents.

But what the dark wizard betrayed was the interests of the wizarding world as a whole, which made Grindelwald, who always believed in sacrificing everything for the greater good, look down on him.

Looking back to the past, when Grindelwald was active decades ago, he was also called a dark wizard, so Grindelwald even felt a little ashamed to have the same title as these people.

"Wizards must find another way out." Grindelwald said, and then he stared at Jerome, "I need Dumbledore!"

He knew that Dumbledore was also considering the wizards, so at this time Grindelwald needed someone who could discuss with him and discuss together where the wizards should go.

"No problem, I'll ask the Valeska Chamber of Commerce to find out." Jerome agreed, and then his eyes flashed.

"But regarding the future of the wizarding world, I have recently discovered a very good treasure that may be able to give you some inspiration."

Jerome took out a black-covered notebook and handed it directly to Grindelwald.

Grindelwald didn't understand, but after all, Jerome had just agreed to help, so Grindelwald naturally didn't want to refuse Jerome's face, since he was the one receiving the gift anyway.

Because they had to wait for the Valeska Chamber of Commerce to get information, the four of them stayed in this wizard gathering place.

At night, Grindelwald, who had experienced another low point in his life, was alone in the room with nothing to do. Out of curiosity, he opened the notebook given to him by Jerome.

With Grindelwald's magical attainments, he quickly figured out the mystery of the notebook.

Grindelwald wrote a sentence in his notebook.

【what do you?】

The handwriting disappeared, and a response soon appeared on the notebook:

【Tom Riddle's diary. 】

Tom Riddle?
Of course Grindelwald knew this name. Isn’t this the famous Voldemort?

Grindelwald immediately hesitated. Could it be that this diary was trying to spread Voldemort's propaganda to him?

Kill all Muggles and maintain your evil rule?
Perhaps Grindelwald might have been interested decades ago, but now that he is over a hundred years old, Grindelwald only wants to consider the entire wizarding world.

But he did not stop there, but continued writing.

What can you do?

The diary responded promptly.

【Showing you the future of wizards. 】

Grindelwald smiled softly and wrote two words in his diary.

【Show me! 】

Ahem, the correct translation should be [Show me! ]

【no problem! 】

After the diary responded, the words disappeared and there was no movement. Just as Grindelwald was feeling strange, a young ghost wearing the Slytherin uniform of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry appeared on the scene.

"What wizards should learn now is how to coexist peacefully with Muggles and Squibs!" Ghost Tom said directly.

Grindelwald's eyes changed and he became slightly interested.

They talked for the whole night.

"Mordred's location has been found, and Voldemort is also here!"

The next morning, Jerome knocked on Grindelwald's door with the latest news.

Grindelwald and Ghost Tom walked out together. Grindelwald frowned slightly, but his expression also showed a lot of relief.

It can be seen that Grindelwald is quite accepting of Ghost Tom's approach.

"Is it possible to let wizards integrate into the human world under the current circumstances?" Grindelwald ignored Mordred and asked Ghost Tom's mentor first.

Jerome laughed, "It was impossible before, but after seeing the power of nuclear bombs, there must be few obstacles for wizards."

Strength is the foundation of everything. The power of Muggles has exceeded the imagination of wizards and can naturally shatter the wizards' superior mentality.

"What about humans?" Grindelwald asked.

Jerome had already known this: "The reason why humans are so comfortable now is all thanks to the device that the Valeska Chamber of Commerce has built to block mind control."

Mordred looked at Jerome deeply, but Jerome seemed to be unaware and continued, "I have already notified the wizards in England. Cheeks and others will go over to capture them. I guess Mordred and Voldemort will definitely act separately!"

He understood the reincarnationists. When faced with difficulties, they did not have the character to fight together. When disaster struck, they fled on their own, which was the survival rule of the reincarnationists.

Not to mention... he has an insider.

That’s right, there are only three people in total: Mordred, Eusas, and Voldemort, and there is actually an insider named Jerome.

Moreover, Jerome knew that even if he told it, Grindelwald might not believe it, because his accomplice was Mordred, the leader of the trio!

"We will go separately, and you can deal with Yusas then!"

These were the exact words that Mordred conveyed to Jerome through the Valeska Chamber of Commerce.

Although Jerome didn't know why Mordred wanted to kill his teammates, he was certainly happy to help in this matter.

"I'm going to chase Voldemort!" Grindelwald said directly.

They all knew that Voldemort wanted to know to whom Dumbledore had transferred the ownership of the Elder Wand, so if they acted separately, Voldemort would definitely not leave Dumbledore to anyone else.

Jerome nodded. It was reasonable to let the recognized first generation Dark Lord deal with the real Dark Lord.

He threw a potion at Grindelwald.

"Jonathan specially developed this. If you find Dumbledore and he is still alive, feed him this," said Jerome.

Grindelwald had already witnessed the magic of outsiders, so he put the potion away carefully. Whether he and Dumbledore could renew their relationship depended on this.
