Chapter 91 Professor Quirrell is broken~

Voldemort is getting anxious now!

That brat Ted was right; that old geezer Dumbledore has probably already figured it out.

We must hurry and get the magic stone, then leave this place!

"Quirk, perk up! Grab Longbottom and make him look in the mirror! The Philosopher's Stone is in the mirror! Hurry!" Voldemort said through gritted teeth.

However, Professor Quirrell was truly dejected. He remained motionless.

Voldemort alone could no longer control this tattered body.

"Get up! Hurry up, you piece of trash! Move yourself!"

Voldemort is now showing no mercy to Professor Quirrell, treating him almost like a disposable expendable item, a far cry from his behavior back in the Albanian forest.

That's classic scumbag behavior—once he gets what he wants, he doesn't care anymore.

But what else could Professor Quirrell do? He had completely given up; if he had to die, he might as well save his energy.

However, Voldemort roared and struggled violently against Quirrell's head, the edge where his face and scalp met as if they were about to be torn apart.

"Ah! No! No! Master! I'll move! I'll move!" Quirrell, who had intended to lie down and give up, was moved by Voldemort's "Painful Lash." Lying down and waiting to die like this? Impossible!

Quirrell, his face covered in wrinkles and streaked with tears, staggered to his feet and grabbed Neville, who was lying stiff on the ground.

"Get up and look in the mirror." Professor Quirrell sounded weak and lacked confidence, looking like he had kidney deficiency.

He genuinely felt he was doomed, that he was about to die. He also sensed Voldemort's impatience and indifference.

He is now consumed by regret and fear, and is on the verge of madness!

Now he can't even die; he has to be squeezed dry of every last bit of value from us. He's so cruel!

At this moment, Neville was unable to move and could only stare wide-eyed at the Mirror of Erised in front of him.

Don't let the Philosopher's Stone appear! Don't let the Philosopher's Stone appear! Voldemort can't get it! Voldemort can't get it!

Neville screamed wildly in his mind.

However, things didn't go as planned. What you fear most is what happens most often.

Instead of his parents appearing in the mirror as usual, he saw himself.

Neville in the mirror smiled, holding an irregularly shaped red crystal, stuffed it into his right pocket, patted it, and winked at his reflection.

Then Neville felt a weight in his right trouser pocket, as if something had been added.

Oh no! Oh no! Neville's heart sank to the bottom.

Just as Voldemort said, the Philosopher's Stone was indeed hidden in the Mirror of Erised, and Dumbledore even cast a spell with the condition that only those who wanted to protect the Philosopher's Stone rather than use it could retrieve it from the mirror.

This is a very spiritual setup.

The Mirror of Erised can sense people's inner desires, which ensures that they won't be deceived by ordinary magic.

Anyone who covets the Philosopher's Stone will be unable to find it in the mirror.

At least Ted couldn't get the Philosopher's Stone from the mirror.

Voldemort discovered this, which is why he didn't kill Neville, the boy who had killed him, immediately.

Now, with Neville's help, he has found the Philosopher's Stone!

By this time, Ted, who had been hiding for half a day, had already poured himself a mana potion to restore his magic power—a blue bottle of water, delicious water~

Ted tried four times to make this stuff, almost exhausting all the herbs Harry "borrowed" from Snape. He finally succeeded with Hermione's help, and only managed to make three bottles in total.

At this moment, Quirrell, trembling, grabbed Neville by the back of the collar, sniffled, and, with tears streaming down his face, shouted in a resentful tone, "Tell me, where is the Philosopher's Stone?!"

"No! There's no Philosopher's Stone!" Neville retorted.

"Speak! Tell me!" Professor Quirrell felt his life slipping away, death approaching, and his mind was about to collapse.

"No! I didn't see it. Forget about it! I just... I just saw that I won the House Cup for Gryffindor!" Neville was still being stubborn, even clumsily telling a lie.

However, Voldemort was a master of Legilimency. He could even discern Neville's lies from his tone of voice.

"He's lying!" Voldemort exclaimed. "Let me face him!"

Quirrell could only turn around and look at Neville with the back of his head.

It was only then that Neville saw Voldemort's face clearly. What an ugly face it was! It looked like a noseless leather mask stuck to the back of Quirrell's head, and the features were no longer human!

This was the man who had killed his parents! Neville mustered his courage and glared at him angrily.

However, it was no use. To Voldemort, Neville's little head was like an open safe, open to his observation.

In those three seconds that Neville was disgusted by his face, he discovered Neville's little secret.

"Oh, I found it! It's in his pocket! The Philosopher's Stone is in his right pocket!" Voldemort exclaimed in surprise.

"No! No!" Neville cried, but he was still stiff and unable to struggle.

Voldemort controlled one hand to reach into Neville's pocket...

Even Ted, who was hiding in the distance, was anxious, fearing that Voldemort would run away as soon as he got his hands on the Philosopher's Stone. He thought to himself: Dumbledore, when are you going to stop?!

However, Dumbledore acted as if he wasn't there at all, making no sound whatsoever.

"Hey! Professor Quirrell, stop! Are you going to aid and abet this evil? Can't you see that Voldemort is going to kill you? He never intended for you to live!" Ted, who was invisible, suddenly shouted.

His shout worked; Quirrell's outstretched hand suddenly trembled, and he froze.

"It's not too late for you to pull back from the brink. Dumbledore can definitely save you! Think it through!" Ted continued his psychological offensive.

But Voldemort wouldn't listen. "Fool, what are you hesitating for? Don't believe his nonsense. Don't resist me! Get the Philosopher's Stone!"

Ted continued to sow discord: "Look, he doesn't care whether you live or die. He only cares about the Philosopher's Stone~" Unlike me, I only care about Geigei~

Professor Quirrell was sweating profusely, his eyes darting around, and his entire CPU was overloaded.

Voldemort's voice suddenly softened: "Quirkhor, if I get the Philosopher's Stone, I can be resurrected. Then you'll be my most trusted lieutenant. You won't die!"

Voldemort was clearly flustered. He hadn't expected Ted to say such a thing; it was absolutely right on the spot!

Moreover, he clearly sensed that Quirrell's resolve was wavering!

Damn it, did he really consider betraying me?! Damn piece of trash!

"He never intended for you to live when he forced you to drink unicorn blood. You can only rely on Dumbledore! This is your last chance! Professor Quirrell, think it through!" Ted was fanning the flames wildly from the side, his voice extremely loud.

Damn it! They all deserve to die!

At this moment, with his soul scattered and severely injured, Voldemort was about to explode with rage.

He no longer cared about arguing with Ted about Quirrell's life or death, since he genuinely didn't care.

He once again drained Quirrell's magic, then forcibly took over Quirrell's body, controlling Quirrell to reach for the Philosopher's Stone in Neville's pocket.

"Ah~~~"

Quirrell let out the worst scream ever heard, a scream that sounded as if someone had torn him in two.

His hand reached into Neville's pocket in a contorted gesture, his whole body shaking as if he were dancing.

At this moment, Quirrell's face was contorted in pain, his eyes rolled back, and he was drooling! Voldemort had completely ruined him.

Ted couldn't just talk his way out of it, so he pulled two things out of his pocket and tossed them out from the shadows.
