The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

At this moment, Tom in the level suddenly changed his expression and said, "The answer is... death?"

"Correct answer! You can go through!" Sphinx stood up happily and opened the door behind him.

Tom's expression relaxed, and he glanced warily at the Sphinx who had moved away from him, then strode into the door behind her.

"Good, he guessed the answer!" said Dumbledore happily.

However, Levid and Grindelwald beside them did not show any special expressions.

"You don't seem satisfied with Tom's performance just now? But he performed very well!" Dumbledore asked puzzledly.

"It's just so-so." Li Weide said casually.

"To come up with the answer in just two minutes is excellent, Tom," Dumbledore said with a sigh.

"But he actually answered the Sphinx's questions honestly!" Li Weide said in disbelief.

"That's right..." Grindelwald nodded in agreement.

"Is there any problem with this? Isn't this the rule for creatures like the Sphinx?" Dumbledore asked doubtfully.

Li Weide frowned and said, "Of course there's a problem... The Sphinx is so weak... Why should we follow her rules?"

"Haha, that's right! I'm better than her, why should I listen to her? You should follow my rules!" Grindelwald laughed and nodded.

Dumbledore frowned, rolled his eyes at Grindelwald, and continued, "Is that what you think? What would you do if it were you?"

"Of course I gave her the riddle! If she can't answer it, she should just give way to me." Li Weide said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Dumbledore asked with a mixture of laughter and tears, "What if she answers it?"

"Then I'll beat her up and make her give me the way." Li Weide said seriously.

"Pfft, hahaha." Grindelwald gave a thumbs up and then looked at Dumbledore again.

As if to say, look, this is Li Weide! Do you still think he is a good boy?

"Well... although your approach is somewhat unexpected, it does make sense." Dumbledore nodded with a smile.

Grindelwald's smile disappeared, Dumbledore, you are doomed...

"But since you think so, why don't you defeat her right from the start instead of spending time guessing riddles with her?" Dumbledore asked with interest.

"Hiss, that makes sense, Professor! It seems... I still have room for improvement..." Levid looked at Dumbledore with admiration.

"Well, it's better for you not to make any more progress on this kind of thing. No matter how strong you are, you can't look at the problem in this way." Dumbledore said with a smile.

Grindelwald frowned and looked at Dumbledore. He was now beginning to suspect whether Levid had given Dumbledore some strange potion.

This little bastard has revealed so many flaws, don't you think there's anything wrong with his character?

Just as Grindelwald was complaining in his heart, Dumbledore suddenly said, "Wade, you should maintain your kindness and not be led astray by certain people, because some people's values ​​are very problematic... You can't learn from them."

"Hiss...oh..." Grindelwald suddenly realized.

Oh, so in Dumbledore's eyes, that little bastard Levander had problems with values, and it was all my fault?

In other words, even if Levid reveals more flaws later, he can become his perfect shield and be blamed by Dumbledore?

Good...very good...you are worthy of it, Li Weide!

If that’s the case, what else can I say?

It seems that in Dumbledore's eyes, all of his previous reminders were meant to sow discord between them as teacher and student, right?

Never mind your business again! Dumbledore!

At this time, in the two-way mirror, after successfully passing the test of the Sphinx, Tom used fire to repel a large number of zombies.

However, Tom's footsteps finally stopped at the door of the last level.

In the final level, there are ten combat puppets!

Of course, if it was an ordinary combat puppet, Tom would have already charged.

But... the equipment of these ten combat puppets is exactly like that of Muggle soldiers!

Tom quietly looked at the ten combat puppets in the level, and felt a black screen in front of his eyes.

Among the ten combat puppets, there were two machine gunners, three grenadiers, and five riflemen...

And the three grenadiers also had two submachine guns in their hands!

There was no doubt that if Tom chose to charge directly, he would first be hit by hundreds of special bullets, and then be blown up into the sky by the bombardier...

Although the bullets and bombs have been dealt with and no one will be killed, but... if you really get hit like that, you will have to stay in the school hospital for a few days!

When he was outside just now, he had seen many seniors being carried out while wailing...

Without exception, they all failed at this level!

Tom didn't want to be carried out like this, it would be too embarrassing! That bastard Li Weide would die of laughter!

Besides, the pain caused by the potion in the bullet is too strong! Tom doesn't want to experience it!

Tom frowned and looked at the configuration inside, but didn't dare to go in.

Fortunately, when it comes to the big level, as long as you don't step in, the enemies in the level will not launch an attack, which gives Tom plenty of time to observe and prepare.

First of all, if you use the Iron Armor Spell to go in, under the torrent of fire from the two machine guns, your Iron Armor Spell will basically be no different from paper.

Moreover, the special grenades thrown by the two grenadiers were very powerful, and the submachine guns in their hands had a firing rate that was no different from that of machine guns.

In comparison, those riflemen were not that threatening!

However, the machine gunner and the bombardier were standing too far away, so he couldn't attack them at the same time...

Tom was still hesitant, and Grindelwald, outside the two-way mirror, couldn't help but shake his head. "They're just Muggle weapons. Why are you so scared? Just use Transfiguration... I remember Vader didn't engrave magical defense runes on those puppets' guns, right?"

For a wizard like Grindelwald, even if a hundred Muggle soldiers surrounded him with machine guns, he could use Transfiguration to turn the machine guns in their hands into noodles in an instant...

"That's you. Tom's magic power is not strong enough now." Dumbledore also frowned.

In fact, although many students were eliminated at this stage, some students still passed successfully.

In other words, as long as your magic power is strong enough and your reaction is fast enough, you can still pass the level easily.

However, Tom was challenging a higher level after all. Even though he was already a genius, his magic power was still not as strong as those seniors in the seventh grade who were facing graduation.

In other words, the way the seniors passed the level was not suitable for Tom.

At this time, Tom also thought of Transfiguration, but with his Transfiguration skills, the speed was still not fast enough!

If you forcibly use Transfiguration to attack the puppet's weapon, the bullet will definitely hit him before his magic!

With the strength of his magic, even if he could create an earth wall to block the bullets, it would definitely not be able to withstand such fierce firepower.

In fact, in the face of such firepower, the earth wall is no different from paper... It can't give Tom enough time to dodge!

Tom also thought of using "flash bombs" or something like that, but the doorway was so small, and if the group of puppets encountered something unusual, they would directly pour firepower at the doorway, and he would still suffer!

In other words, with Tom's current ability, it is impossible for him to pass the level without getting shot!

Tom hesitated again and again, and finally took out another bottle of potion from his pocket and drank it...

"Huh? Do you want to..." Li Weide looked at Tom in shock.

"What potion is that?" Grindelwald asked immediately.

The potion on Tom's body was definitely related to Levid, and Grindelwald was still very interested in the fresh potions that Levid took out from time to time.

"This is a magic potion that can block pain... It seems that he plans to force his way in..." Li Weide frowned.

"That shouldn't be the case," Grindelwald shook his head. "It's probably just to prevent the pain from being unbearable after being accidentally shot, so..."

However, before he could finish his words, Tom rushed out...

"Bang, bang, bang!" Two machine guns opened fire rapidly! Then, grenades...

Only about ten seconds passed and all ten puppets were knocked down by Tom.

Tom used his magic to transform the guns in their hands into poisonous snakes...

Finally, Tom appeared at the exit, breathless.

"Tom Riddle, successful clearance!"

Grindelwald looked at Tom's twisted left arm and right leg and couldn't help asking, "This...this kid is too cruel, isn't he?"

Li Weide looked at Tom's miserable state and said coldly, "He should be thankful that this is a level-up... not a real battlefield..."

Dumbledore sighed, "There's nothing we can do about it. This last level is truly too difficult for a wizard of his age."

At this moment, the healer from St. Mungo's rushed over like crazy... Tom's injuries were probably the most serious among those injured today...

The weapons of Li Weide's puppets, whether bullets or bombs, have all been tampered with.

Before hitting the human body, its power is no different from that of an ordinary bullet!

Only when it is about to hit a person will the magic on the bullet take effect, greatly reducing its power and preventing it from penetrating the human body.

But if it hits a person at that speed, it will still cause injury!

Add to that the magic potion exploding in the bullet, and the person who got hit would feel even more pain...

But what Tom did was actually a bit of a cheat.

He drank the painkilling potion... and then came out and took a few bullets, which bought him enough time to react and kill all the puppets...

Grindelwald looked at Tom lying on the stretcher with an expressionless face, allowing the therapists to treat him, and he couldn't help feeling happy.

I knew this guy was no ordinary guy! This ruthlessness... is like me!

Chapter 298 Have you experienced the beauty brought by power?

School hospital.

Tom opened his eyes and saw the white ceiling.

A strong smell of medicine filled the air...

He was about to sit up when he found that one of his legs and one of his hands were paralyzed.

Tom was about to look up when he heard a familiar voice beside him.

"You're awake? Congratulations, the operation was a success. You've already... no, your limb has been successfully amputated!"

Tom sat up suddenly, and then he saw his left arm and right leg, which were wrapped tightly in bandages but still intact.

Li Weide was sitting on the chair next to him, looking at him with a joking expression.

"Is that a good joke?" asked Tom gravely.

"I thought you weren't afraid." Li Weide put down the book in his hand. "After all, you dared to use your arms and legs to withstand bullets... I have to say, you are the most impressive in this round of the exam."

This time, even Grindelwald was shocked by the ruthless treatment Tom took of himself in order to pass the level, let alone the other students present.

It can be said that after the news spread, Tom became the most popular person in Hogwarts.

Now, everyone in Hogwarts knows what a ruthless person the taciturn "Little Prince of Azkaban" is.

"How long have I slept?" Tom struggled to pick up a pocket watch with his right hand and looked at the time.

"Not long, just a day." Li Weide answered casually.

"Then why aren't my hands and feet healed yet?" Tom asked puzzledly.

If it was just a minor problem like a broken bone, the healers at St. Mungo's could cure it in the blink of an eye.

But now... Tom looked at his left arm and right leg that were wrapped tightly, and a bad feeling came over him.

"Didn't you read the instructions carefully when you took my pain-relieving potion?" Li Weide asked.

"No..." Tom said a little guiltily.

"That's right. Why do you think my teacher and I haven't released this potion yet? It's because it's not perfect yet!" Livid said helplessly. "Although this potion can help you get rid of most of the pain, but... if you get injured after drinking it, you can't use magic to heal..."

"Why is this?" Tom asked anxiously.

"Because in order to isolate the pain, the power of the potion will be all wrapped up in your wound... In this way, although your pain is isolated by magic power, the magic that can heal you is also isolated." Li Weide spread his hands.

"What should we do then? When will the effect of this potion wear off?" Tom asked nervously.

"It won't work, so you can only slowly recover from your injuries like a Muggle," Levid said regretfully. "At least, until my teacher and I find an antidote, you'll have to hold on..."

Tom slumped back onto the bed, his face wrinkled into a knot. "Shit..."
