Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 116 Gathering in Chinatown (First Update)

However, these are just some judgments Jerry made based on the current situation. It's hard to say what the truth is, since he hasn't actually seen Morgana's strength with his own eyes.

The portrayal in the movie alone is not enough to draw a complete conclusion.

Perhaps the power of this most powerful dark wizard in history is far greater than he estimated.

In short, it's best not to release her for the time being.

In fact, besides the art of immortality, he was also very interested in another kind of magic in the world of "The Sorcerer's Apprentice".

That is—sealing magic!

Morgana and a group of the world's top magicians were sealed inside a Russian nesting doll by a sealing magic for over two thousand years, and were unable to escape on their own.

Clearly, this sealing magic is quite powerful.

If he learns this magic, then when he returns to the Harry Potter world, could he directly seal away the remnant soul of Voldemort, who likes to cause trouble everywhere?

As long as Voldemort's Horcruxes are not completely destroyed, his remnant soul cannot be killed, and even a powerful being like Dumbledore is helpless against him.

But it doesn't matter if I can't kill you. I'll seal your remnant soul in a jar for thousands of years. That should be pretty good, right?

If we encounter anything that can't be killed, we'll seal it up, collect it all, and one day dump it onto an uninhabited planet so it can slowly rot in there.

Just as Jerry was envisioning which spells he would focus on learning in the future and how to use them, the neurotic mage and his future apprentice Dave finally reached an agreement.

In the end, Dave succumbed to the neurasthenic sorcerer's "coercion and enticement" and agreed to help him find the lost Death Hand.

The two are now discussing whether to ride the giant iron bird or go down to find the old car that the neurotic mage parked in the parking lot ten years ago.

The giant iron bird was faster, but it was too conspicuous and easily spotted by ordinary people, as well as Horvath.

Driving a car would be more discreet, but it wouldn't be fast enough. Horvath is definitely also looking for the Hand of Death, and it would be troublesome if he found it first.

"If needed, I think I can come with you!"

At this moment, Jerry took another step forward.

"Our Hogwarts school possesses an invisibility spell that can solve the problem of being easily detected!"

The neurotic mage's eyes lit up, but then he said somewhat seriously:

"Master Jerry, are you sure you want to come with us?"

Jerry shrugged:

"I don't want the terrifying dark sorceress Morgana to be resurrected and destroy this beautiful world!"

"Thank you!"

The neurotic mage hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

They've already wasted too much time on the rooftop; Horvas might have already found the Hand of Death, so they need to speed things up.

Searching by air in a giant iron bird is definitely more time-efficient than driving.

If it weren't for the fact that the spells he learned could only make small, inanimate objects invisible, and not large or living creatures, I really wouldn't want to let such a young wizard go on an adventure with them.

The neurotic mage pressed his hand on the iron bird decoration that was leaning over the edge of the rooftop. Magical power surged in, and the large iron bird instantly came back to life. It shook its wings, stood up, and walked obediently to the three of them.

The three climbed onto the back of the giant iron bird one by one, and then Jerry waved his wand, casting a Disillusionment Charm on all three of them and the giant iron bird at the same time.

"My pigeon has located Death's Hand, near the city center!"

Standing atop the giant iron bird, Balthazar sensed the location of the pigeon he had just released, then commanded the bird to take off, quickly flying towards the city center.

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the antique shop where Dave had encountered the neurotic wizard.

Based on the information Dave had given him, Horvas, the king of the insects, took his scepter and began to cast a time-reversal spell.

Under the influence of magic, the virtual image that occurred in front of the antique shop ten years ago reappeared before his eyes.

A little boy ran out of the antique shop in terror and threw the Russian nesting doll he was holding far away on the street. A short while later, an elderly Chinese woman dressed in traditional Chinese clothing reached out and picked up the Russian nesting doll.

"Chinatown!"

After finding the person who took the matryoshka doll, Horvath got back into the sports car he had transformed and sped off toward Chinatown in Manhattan.

Soon, guided by the magic, he arrived at the bustling Chinatown, where the Lantern Festival was being celebrated.

Now, the entire Chinatown is filled with Chinese people dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, as well as various Chinese performances. The most eye-catching of these is the dragon dance performance in the center of the street.

"Oh no, it's them!"

Seeing Dave and Jerry standing downstairs in the distance, Horvath immediately knew he was too late; Balthazar had already found the Hand of Death before him.

However, Horvath was clearly not going to give up so easily. He immediately used his most proficient illusion and transformation spell to transform himself into the appearance of a beautiful woman.

He then carefully squeezed through the crowd, circled around to the back of the building, and quietly slipped inside.

On the street in front of the building, Jerry and Dave were watching a dragon dance performance.

The giant iron bird was very fast, so they arrived at Chinatown, which Balthazar had located, in no time.

For safety's sake, Balthazar told Jerry and Dave to wait downstairs while he went up alone to scout the situation. If they could get the Death's Hand directly, that would be best; if Horvath beat them to it, it would be safer for the two of them to stay downstairs.

"Dave, can I borrow your dragon ring?"

Seeing Dave captivated by the dragon dance, Jerry feigned curiosity and asked a question.

Dave didn't mind, casually took off the dragon ring and handed it to Jerry, then went back to watching the performance.

As Jerry put the dragon ring on his hand, he immediately felt the same sensation as with his wand. He didn't even know if it was because the dragon ring was Merlin's ring, but it felt much better to him than his own wand.

He felt that if he didn't use his wand at this moment, the power of the magic he released might be several times greater than before, thanks to the amplification from the Dragon Ring alone.

After confirming that the Dragon Ring could indeed replace the wand, Jerry didn't try anything funny and returned it to Dave.

In his view, the difference between the Dragon Ring and a regular wizard's ring was like the difference between the Elder Wand and a regular wand.

While it certainly amplifies magic more, ultimately it depends on the magician's own strength. If one's own strength is insufficient, wielding the Dragon Ring and the Elder Wand will be equally useless.

He now values ​​the different magical knowledge of this world more, so he has no intention of getting his hands on the Dragon Ring for the time being.

For now, I'll just need a regular mage's ring to use!

Once I've mastered most of the magic in this world, then I'll consider the Dragon Ring.
