The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

Otherwise, wouldn’t this effect be a little too surprising?

"That's a bad imitation, Tom. That's not the way I talk. It's disgusting to talk like that!"

As soon as he entered the Forbidden Forest, Li Weide complained.

"I personally think it's very vivid!" Tom said expressionlessly. "In fact, that's how I felt when I watched you speak."

"Tom, it seems that you need to continue practicing your Shield Charm..."

"Vade... if you want me to stand and get beaten, just say so."

"Look, you misunderstood again, didn't you? I just wanted to improve your shabby armor charm as soon as possible!"

"I believe you ghost!"

Although Li Weide and Tom were arguing non-stop, their pace did not slow down at all.

They took the lead, and Anne, with a frown on her face, quickly disappeared onto the path in the Forbidden Forest, as if they were afraid that Mr. Ogg would wake up...

Only after completely disappearing from Mr. Og's sight did Li Weide take out a map, and while looking at it, he observed the side of the road, as if trying to identify the direction so as to find the pre-planned road that leads directly to the ruins.

Tom also cooperated with Li Wei's performance, pretending to plan a different route for the first time, and pointed in front of Li Wei's map.

"I say... aren't you already familiar with the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest?" Annie couldn't help but ask when she saw this.

In fact, she was already getting a little impatient when she saw Li Weide and the other man taking their time to find their way.

If she wasn't afraid of exposing the fact that she had been to the Forbidden Forest, she would have wanted to show them the way directly.

"Well...it's too dark at night, and I can't quite tell the direction. You know, it takes a little effort to identify the route planned on the map in the field." Li Weide said calmly.

"Yes... yes... it's too dark." Tom also chimed in.

Seeing how hesitant they were, Annie couldn't help but reach out to Li Weide.

"what happened?"

"Give me your map. I'll find the way."

"Isn't this your first time in the Forbidden Forest?"

"I'm pretty good at reading maps. When our family went hunting in the forest, I was the one who led the way," Annie said casually.

"Ah...that's great." Li Weide said and handed over the map.

Anne took the map and pretended to glance at it, then she found the right direction and led the way off the trail.

Li Weide and Tom followed closely behind her.

Seeing her choose the road without hesitation, Tom couldn't help but open the "Team Voice" and said using the whispering spell invented by Livid: "It seems that this is not her first time in the Forbidden Forest. Moreover, she is very familiar with our destination. Look, she doesn't even need to stop to identify the direction!"

"A sharp observation, Tom."

"Isn't it obvious to any fool? Cut the crap, Vader!"

"I can't even praise you enough... This is actually quite normal. The Witches have been searching for that magic in the Forbidden Forest for a long time, and Anne must have been secretly searching the Forbidden Forest often... Honestly, if that magic hadn't been exhausted, Grindelwald might have found it long ago."

After hearing what Li Weide said, the last bit of suspicion in Tom's heart about Li Weide disappeared.

Yes, if Levid lied to me and this kind of magic still exists, with the help of the goblin's instruments, Grindelwald would not have been able to find it after searching for so long!

Tom thought for a moment, then asked, "Are you sure your 'magic mist' can really fool Rosier?"

"Don't worry, Tom... I know what it feels like to suddenly become stronger, so I know how realistic the fakes I made are!"

Tom looked at Li Weide in surprise, he heard the key words!

Does Li Weide know what it feels like to suddenly become stronger?

Sure enough! This bastard is so strong, it's not natural! It must be his family background!

You bastard! If I had a family background like that, I'd be a fool to come out and become an orphan!

Yes, I'm talking about you, Wade! You big idiot!

At this moment, Tom's heart was filled with envy, jealousy and hatred...

"Tom... next time you scold me, remember to turn off the 'voice'..."

Sorry for the late update.

Chapter 110 You Are Not Serious!

"Turn off the voice chat? What do you mean by that? If I turned off the voice chat, how would you know I was cursing you? I'd rather not curse you secretly than let anyone hear me..."

Tom used the Whispering Spell to spout out his dissatisfaction and jealousy.

Some people are born in Rome, but they don’t know how to cherish it at all!

Tom felt that his and Li Weide's current situation was like they were participating in a race together.

Li Weide's starting line was originally closer to the finish line than mine.

But now this guy insisted on running back to his side, saying that it would be fair if he started running with everyone else...

Tom originally believed it, thinking that Li Weide was just running a little faster than him.

Since we're all at the same starting line now, there's still a chance for me to catch up...

However... when the race officially started, Tom realized... everyone was running on their legs, but you were riding a horse!

Fair? What is fair? Tell me, what the hell is fair!?

Fairness means that you can ride a horse and complain that I’m running slowly, and finally mock me for being a badass and saying I should practice more!

"Tom...you've been a little bit arrogant lately. You even start to not avoid people when you scold me?" Li Weide looked at Tom in surprise.

In the past, Tom always talked behind his back, but now... he is too lazy to even pretend and starts to curse people to their faces!

"Then you're going to kill me?" Tom replied expressionlessly.

Li Weide didn't know that because of a casual remark he made, Tom's resentment was even greater than that of the old ghost who had died unjustly for more than ten years...

"It's not necessary to kill him, just a few beatings will be enough."

"Then beat me to death!" Tom stiffened his neck and glared at him angrily.

"Okay... Tom, since you've asked so strongly, why should I refuse... Do you have any last words?"

"Hiss... No! Are you serious? I... I admit that I spoke a little loudly just now..."

When it came to his own life, Tom suddenly came to his senses.

No matter how much you envy other people's abilities, they belong to them, but your own life... is the one that truly belongs to you!

Just then, Annie finally stopped.

"It seems to be just ahead." She looked at the map in her hand and said.

About fifty meters in front of the three people, there was a ruin.

"This is the first time I know that there were people living in the Forbidden Forest." Tom frowned and looked at the ruins in the distance.

"Hogwarts has a history of thousands of years. It's normal to have some abandoned buildings around it. With the passage of time, the former town has turned into the forest today..." Levid said casually.

Anne suddenly said, "But... this is just the ruins of a single building. Not a town or anything like that. If... I mean, if all these locations you've speculated are ruins like this... do you think there's any connection?"

Li Weide pondered and said, "Well, you asked a good question. This is indeed a problem. If all this magic power is hidden in these ruins... maybe these buildings themselves are related to these powers."

"I don't know...were these buildings originally used for living, or did they have other uses..."

Having said that, Li Weide seemed to be lost in thought.

On the surface, Levid was talking about Morgana's magical power, but what he was thinking about in his heart was ancient magic.

He hadn't thought about it before.

Now, when he thought back, he realized that the locations of those ancient magic hotspots were all in some ruins!

Anne looked at the ruins and then pretended to go forward and explore.

She had actually seen this place many times, and there was nothing there, but it was not good to do nothing.

After all, this should be her "first time" here!

Li Weide approached the ruins and looked at them carefully, as if trying to find some iconic architectural signs among them.

So that he could find out later who built these buildings... and why they generated ancient magic hotspots.

In this way, maybe he could truly understand the origins of these ancient magics, and where else these ancient magic hotspots could exist besides around Hogwarts!

Annie also frowned. "These ruins look like they're at least several hundred years old. That means they were already ruins when Professor Morgana was alive. But why did she hide these magical powers in these ruins? It's too obvious! She couldn't have hidden them anywhere..."

"Perhaps it has something to do with the formation or storage of this magical power..." Tom also speculated. "Otherwise, I really can't imagine why such a precious thing would be placed in such an unprotected and shabby place."

Li Weide didn't say anything, but just concentrated on looking at the ruins that he had previously ignored.

After a while, he finally saw some clues.

These buildings have remnants of ancient magic... just like his lighter.

Now, Li Weide has a bold guess.

That is, these buildings were originally built using ancient magic!

Therefore, after these buildings declined, the ancient magic that originally maintained the buildings overflowed and then condensed together again, forming an ancient magic hotspot...

Even these buildings have been weathered, but the ancient magic contained in the buildings has not dissipated!

This shows the power of ancient magic...

It is also because of this that Li Weide can absorb these ancient magical powers so smoothly without being rejected!

The ancient magical power used by the predecessors to build the house now seemed to have become a battery to charge Li Weide...

Of course, it is very simple to prove whether this idea is correct. All it takes is a simple control experiment.

Building houses with ancient magic... Could it be that ancient magic was a very common thing in the past?

Soon, Li Weide shook his head and rejected this arbitrary idea in his heart.

The fact that some people have used ancient magic to build houses does not prove that this power was common in the past.

If it had been common, it wouldn't have been completely absent from magical histories.

When the senior sister first awakened to ancient magic, she only learned the specific information about ancient magic from the portraits of her former professors.

"There's nothing here," Annie said after a cursory inspection.

There was nothing different here from the last time she came here to investigate.

So, she didn't need to explore further to know that there was nothing here.

"Let's look for it more carefully." Li Weide said.

As he said this, he looked at Tom.

Tom nodded and began to take out his wand, using Apparition spells to examine every inch of the ruins.

Anne watched from the side and shook her head inwardly.

She had checked the ruins in this place many times and found nothing.

Not only that, after she handed in the notebook, Grindelwald asked other witches under his command to check it many times.

Among these Wukhoz parties, there are many "professionals" who frequently conduct "ruin expeditions".

Plus, each of them was holding the kind of instrument the goblins distributed.

Logically speaking, if that kind of magical power really existed here, it should be impossible not to detect it.

The kind of magical power that was supposed to exist here.

Either it never existed in the first place, or it was taken away many years ago.

Therefore, no matter how professional and meticulous Li Weide and Tom's testing methods are, they are doomed to fail.

While Annie was pretending to help with the search, she was thinking about how to convince Li Weide and Tom to move to another place.

"Something's going on here." Tom suddenly said.

"Really? Let me take a look." Li Weide walked over excitedly.

Annie widened her eyes. No way?

This has been checked so many times, but nothing was found. They found a clue as soon as they arrived?
