Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 176 Shocking change!

Li Weide, dressed in travel clothes and carrying his suitcase, walked quickly down from upstairs.

He took the hat from Toby and put it on, then put his hands on the table and let Nagini climb up.

"Toby, I'm going to be away from home for a while, and the house will be left to you." Li Weide warned.

"Master Wade, you can travel with peace of mind and leave the house to me!" Toby said in a sharp voice.

"Okay...Tom, don't act naughty when I'm not around. Listen to Toby." Li Weide said and turned to the fireplace.

However, when picking up a handful of Floo powder, he suddenly stopped and said, "And...the books in my study are there for you to read...I know you can read."

Perhaps the senior's consciousness left some knowledge to Tom Cat when it possessed him, so it can indeed recognize words...

Tom Cat nodded repeatedly, holding a white handkerchief in his hand and waving it quickly towards Li Weide.

Then she pretended to wipe away her tears.

Li Weide shook his head. This guy must be eager for him to leave so that he can go back to sleep.

However, he did not force it. After all, no matter how smart Tom Cat is, it is still a cat. Just because it looks like a human, it cannot be required to live according to human standards 100%.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." Nagini raised her head and asked while coiling her arms around Levitra.

"Oh, let's go see Tom first... and then visit Mr. Scamander. I really want to see the magical animals he keeps... You also want to see old friends, don't you?" Levi said as he walked into the fireplace...

……

late at night.

In the woods of Riddle Manor.

"The Divine Edge is Shadowless!"

"puff!"

A smooth cut was left on the stake.

Tom looked at the cut on the stake in the moonlight with some regret...

Too shallow!
In order to prevent himself from complaining, Levitra finally did not use the Oblivion Spell, but taught himself this spell in exchange.

Although Tom was not sure what Livid's purpose was, there was no doubt that this was good magic.

When used to attack, it is silent and leaves no trace. Moreover, without a special counter-spell, the wounds caused by this spell cannot stop bleeding!

However, he has been practicing this magic for a long time since he learned it from Levid.

However, no matter how skilled he was in practice, it was still not as powerful as the one used by Li Weide...

At that time, Levid's Shadowless Spell could cut off the giant monster's head silently!

Tom, who had read relevant books, knew very well how tough the troll's skin was. At least, it was much tougher than this ordinary wooden stake!
Tom really couldn't understand. Levitra was the same age as him, so why was his magical power stronger than his?

How did he do it?! Or, what did his family do to him?
In order to figure out this problem, he visited the restricted books area of Hogwarts many times.

There are actually quite a few ways to become stronger, but...how much serious knowledge can be placed in the forbidden area?
Those methods all seem creepy...

Moreover, apart from the fact that the process is not very pleasant and the side effects are somewhat serious, these methods are all extremely dangerous without exception.

If you are not careful, it will be game over.

Tom is still young and doesn't want to die yet. He doesn't want to gamble his life just to become a little bit stronger...

"Magic is subjective... that bastard makes it sound so easy." Tom murmured.

Levitra often said that the power of magic depends on the size of the heart, but Tom always felt that this was not true.

He is confident that he is more attentive and focused than anyone else when casting spells!

But why can't his magic power be improved?

In fact, it’s not that there is no improvement at all, it’s just... it seems that there is a bottleneck, and no matter how hard he tries, he can’t break through.

Tom sighed, rearranged the stakes, and prepared to continue practicing.

This is Riddle Manor.

Unlike the safe house, no one would disturb him here.

Tom finally has a place where he can concentrate on studying and practicing. He believes that as long as he continues to practice, he will be able to figure out the trick one day!

Suddenly, a burst of gunfire was heard in the distance.

Tom just glanced sideways and continued his practice, not taking the sound of the gun seriously.

Because Master Riddle had already told him that the guards hired by their family sometimes spent some time practicing shooting.

Rich families always need some defensive forces.

However, it would be annoying if there were always gunshots, so Tom decided to set up a magic to block out the sound later...

As for which magic to use? Tom thought about it and realized that he didn't seem to have mastered the magic that could block sound over a large area.

How about... writing a letter and asking Li Weide?
"The Divine Edge is Shadowless!"

"Hmm...Imagining the tree trunk as Levitra's neck, I actually cut a little deeper? Hiss...I'll try again!"

Just as Tom was excitedly preparing to continue trying, a white shadow swept down from the treetops!
It was the snowy owl he had given to Master Riddle!
However, this snowy owl now seems a little panicked.

Tom frowned and took a piece of paper from its mouth.

There was a line of sloppy and unfamiliar handwriting on the note.

Tom was sure he had never seen this man's handwriting before.

Moreover, the words in this line were not spelled perfectly, as if they had been written in a great hurry.

it seems that……

[Be careful...go quickly...]

Tom's heart immediately rose, thinking of the gunshots just now, Tom realized something was wrong, how could he practice shooting at night?

Maybe...something happened outside!

Is Grindelwald coming? !

He wanted to take out the Phoenix Tail Feather Door Key given by Dumbledore right now and return to the safe house.

However, when he was about to do this, another choice suddenly popped up in his mind...

That was to venture out and see if something really happened, maybe he could do something.

This decision surprised even himself...it was completely contrary to his usual style!

However, if he didn't do this, he would feel extremely uncomfortable.

After struggling for a while, Tom finally gritted his teeth and chose to stay...

It's not for any family ties or anything like that... He just doesn't want to lose the financial support of the Riddle family!

After making up his mind, Tom quickly ran back to the small building and took out a brand new invisibility cloak from his suitcase.

He bought this at a high price in Diagon Alley before returning to the Riddle family.

He hadn't mastered the Disillusionment Charm yet, so when he saw the Invisibility Cloak, he thought about buying one.

Having an invisibility cloak may save your life at a critical moment.

I just didn't expect that it would be used so soon!
Tom put on the invisibility cloak and his figure instantly disappeared into the air.

The invisibility cloak is of good quality and is new, so it has a good stealth effect.

Tom put on his Invisibility Cloak and quietly walked out of the woods...

In just over ten minutes, the gunshots have completely subsided.

The guards usually practice shooting once every two days, and each time they practice for at least an hour.

But Tom now remembered that the gunshots only lasted for a few minutes and then stopped, and it was late at night...

So, something must have happened...

Tom held the wand in his right hand and the Invisibility Cloak in his left hand, and also held the Phoenix tail feather between two fingers.

Be prepared at all times, and if anything goes wrong, just activate the portkey and teleport.

As soon as they walked out of the woods, Tom frowned.

Because he smelled a smell like rust...

The last time he smelled this was in the Forbidden Forest.

That time, Li Weide slit the throats of three goblins in front of him and a senior student...

The smell of blood! It's the smell of blood!

Sure enough, Tom soon saw a body lying not far away...

When Tom got closer, he realized how miserable the body was!

The body was torn into pieces, with only the pale face intact!
A rifle fell several meters away, the barrel twisted like a pretzel...

Tom looked at the somewhat familiar face and recognized it as one of the Riddle family's guards.

When Master Riddle introduced himself to everyone, he had met all these people...

"Splitting spell..."

This is generally used to process difficult-to-handle potion materials.

This was the first time he had seen someone use it on a human being...

No matter who the person was, his brutality was beyond Tom's expectations.

He understood that he might not be able to help...

Moreover, even the guards are in this state. Can Master Riddle and his family survive?
It's almost impossible...

Thinking of this, Tom felt inexplicably sad.

This was an emotion he had never felt before...

Tom resisted the urge to vomit, avoided the blood on the ground, and walked carefully past the corpse.

Although he thought that his own strength was not enough to defeat the murderer.

But at least he could take a sneak peek and figure out who did it!
After seeing clearly, leave quietly.

Even if he was discovered, he had a way out with the Phoenix Tail Feather...

However, an unknown fire rising from the bottom of his heart made him resist the idea of leaving quietly!
Now he really wants to kill someone...

As Tom got closer to the house in the center of the estate, the smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger.

There are more and more corpses on the ground...

Without exception, their deaths were all extremely tragic.

This is no longer an ordinary killing, this is a massacre!

It seems that the murderer has a deep hatred for the Riddle family...

Tom approached the house and looked up at the second floor.

Now, the second floor is the only place with lights.

Moreover, there were faint voices coming from them!

Tom crept quietly to the wall, then drew the cloak round him, muttering a spell under his breath.

The next second, his body slowly rose up.

He stopped climbing when he reached the second-floor window, and quietly stuck his head out to look out the window...
