The demon monk in the second dimension

"Who are you? Are you new here?"

Xia Zhi ignored the prisoners, bypassed the area where the lightly convicted were held, and crawled toward the area where the heavily convicted were held.

As he walked past, one of the prisoners glared at him, wanting to yell at him, but was immediately pulled back by his fellow inmates.

He looked back and saw that everyone looked terrified and didn't dare to breathe.

The prisoner realized that it seemed there was something he hadn't noticed.

After Xia Zhi left, he asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong? What did you see?"

The other prisoners breathed a sigh of relief and whispered the same thing.

"Footsteps! There were no footsteps when he came!"

The prisoner was also taken aback, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

He looked in the direction Xia Zhi had walked, but instead of footprints, he saw what appeared to be traces of a giant python crawling across the ground.

He wiped the sweat from his face and muttered to himself.

"Is Azkaban using new magical creatures as jailers?"

Chapter 323 The Art of Disappearing Horcruxes (Part 1)

There are quite a few people being held in the area for serious offenders.

Most of them were Death Eaters from back then, with only a small number having entered recently.

The wizarding world also has the death penalty. The Ministry of Magic will have a Dementor deliver a kiss to a condemned prisoner, devouring their soul.

Death Eaters are mostly from pure-blood families. Since their relatives helped them, they naturally wouldn't let these people die.

When Xia Zhi arrived at the high-criminal area, he saw one notorious Death Eater after another.

Antonin Dolokhov, Snape's classmate Mulce, Sirius Black's sister Bellatrix Lestrange...

When Xia Zhi appeared here, some of the Death Eaters closed their eyes and ignored him, while others raised their heads to look at Xia Zhi.

Bellatrix, still fully sane thanks to her fanatical worship of Voldemort, asked him.

"who are you?"

A smile appeared on Xia Zhi's lips.

He removed his hood, his amber eyes meeting the Death Eaters' gaze, petrifying them all.

"Fire Curse!"

Xia Zhi pointed a finger, and a ball of eerie green flames blazed up, destroying the prison door.

He went into the prison and devoured these heinous Death Eaters one by one.

It was three days later when the Ministry of Magic discovered the shocking events in Azkaban.

Three Ministry of Magic officials, who had not eaten or drunk anything for three days, were on the verge of death. After being rescued, they did not even know who had attacked Azkaban.

The prisoners, like them, were on the verge of starvation.

When the Aurors arrived at the area for serious offenders, they were all shocked to see the damaged cell doors and empty cells.

"Die Eaters broke out of prison en masse?"

This is their first reaction.

After all, the fact that these serious criminals were eaten would never be in the Aurors' minds.

Finally, Fudge was informed that the Dementors of Azkaban had disappeared and the Death Eaters had broken out of prison.

Fudge was already overwhelmed after dealing with Sirius Black's matter!

……

On the other side, Xia Zhi, who devoured all the serious criminals, transformed into the likeness of Bellatrix.

He covered himself with a thick cloak and went to Gringotts in Diagon Alley.

He approached the old witch behind the counter and slightly revealed his face.

"I want to go to my own vault."

When the fairy saw Xia Zhi's current appearance, she immediately widened her eyes in shock.

Obviously, Bellatrix should have been in Azkaban at this time.

But the fairy didn't make a sound.

Gringotts only values ​​integrity and doesn't care who the guests are.

"of course can."

He nodded slightly and summoned a young fairy to take Xia Zhi underground.

Because it houses the Hufflepuff Cup, a Horcrux used by Voldemort, Bellatrix's vault has an extremely high level of security; it is one of the few vaults kept deep within Gringotts.

A blind dragon was in charge of guarding it, not far from the vault where Dumbledore kept the Philosopher's Stone.

Upon entering the vault, Xia Zhi told the fairy to wait outside while he went inside.

The vault contained many jewels.

But Xia Zhi knew that the place had been cursed with a fiery spell and a copying spell.

Anything that comes into contact with it will cause severe burning and it will rapidly self-replicate.

Finally, countless jewels were spread throughout the vault, burning or crushing the intruders to death.

Summer Solstice, having gained Bellatrix's memories, raises her hand.

He fired several spells, quickly dispelling the two protective spells.

Above the treasure vault, as the magic was dispelled, a small golden cup slowly floated down and landed in Xia Zhi's hands.

This is Hufflepuff's golden cup; it looks quite ordinary.

According to historical records, Hufflepuff used a spell on this golden cup to make crops more abundant.

Grabbing the Hufflepuff Cup, just like when dealing with the diadem, Xia Zhi released her mind, allowing the remnant soul of Voldemort inside to invade her sea of ​​consciousness.

Voldemort's remnant soul, having been given the chance to possess a body, naturally wouldn't miss it and immediately entered the urn that Xia Zhi had prepared.

But getting in is easy; getting out is difficult!

"what!"

Soon, with a wail, Xia Zhi devoured Voldemort's remnant soul and casually stuffed the golden cup into a pocket.

Before arriving, Xia Zhi cast a seamless stretching spell on many pockets, making them quite large.

Then, Xia Zhi looted the vault of jewelry and Galon, stuffing it all into these bags.

Many of the jewels here are from the Black family’s collection, a lot come from the Lestrange family, and many are Voldemort’s spoils.

It's now the summer solstice.

After leaving Gringotts, Xia Zhi headed straight for the Black family’s old house, 12 Grimmauld Place, London.

He simulated Bellatrix's soul aura and easily entered it.

Kreacher, the Black family's house-elf, was astonished to see Bellatrix return.

"Miss Bella!"

“Kreacher, what nonsense are you spouting? You're getting old! Bella's already in Azkaban, it's impossible—”

Having just returned to his ancestral home, Blake impatiently berated the house-elf he so disliked.

As a member of the pure-blood Black family, Sirius Black is the only Black in modern times to be sorted into Gryffindor instead of Slytherin.

He deeply resented the pure-blood traditions of the Black family, ran away from home in his youth, and made no attempt to hide his hatred for the family.

But Sirius turned his head and was immediately startled to see Summer Solstice dressed as Bellatrix.

"Bella? What happened to you..."

With a flick of his right hand, Xia Zhi knocked the terrified Blake unconscious.

Blake's body jerked backward, slamming hard against the cabinet behind him before landing with a thud.

Summer Solstice looked down at the Black family's house-elf and said in Bellatrix's usual indifferent manner.

“Kreacher, I order you to give me the locket that Regulus brought back.”

"what?"

Kreacher didn't know why the young lady knew about this, and stared at her big, tennis ball-shaped eyes as he spoke.

“Miss Bella, this is Master Regulus—”

Xia Zhi said impatiently.

"Hurry up! Or I'll give you your clothes!"

For house-elves, giving them clothes is giving them freedom, letting them get out of their homes.

But those who pursue freedom like Dobby are a minority.

True house-elves consider it a great insult to be given clothes by their masters, and they will be scorned by all other house-elves.

"Yes, Miss Bella!"

Kreacher shuddered, and with a snap, he Apparated and vanished from the spot.

When he reappeared, he clutched Slytherin's locket and said regretfully.

"Young Master Regulus wanted Kreacher to destroy it, but Kreacher tried many methods and couldn't do it! Neither an axe, a stone, nor a hammer worked! Kreacher is useless! Useless Kreacher! Useless Kreacher!"

Xia Zhi grabbed Slytherin's locket and Apparated away.

Chapter 324 The Art of Disappearing Horcruxes (Part 2)

"Oh!"

When Blake awoke from his coma, he found that his back and head were in great pain.

He recalled what happened before he lost consciousness, and ignoring the pain in his body, he immediately ran back to his room and grabbed his wand.

Blake first searched the house cautiously, but couldn't find Bellatrix anywhere.

He then urgently notified Dumbledore of the news that Bellatrix had escaped from prison.

"prison Break?"

Dumbledore looked at Black, who was rushing up to him, with a puzzled expression.

Blake was taken aback, clearly also thinking of his own successful prison break, and said hesitantly.

"She shouldn't be an Animagus, right? You know, I stopped seeing Bella a long time ago."

A Death Eater escape is no small matter.

Dumbledore immediately went to the Ministry of Magic.

When he found Fudge, Fudge was very embarrassed.

"It wasn't just Bellatrix. The Death Eaters all escaped, disappearing from Azkaban along with the Dementors."

Dumbledore fell silent.

Could it have been Voldemort who did it?

Has he regained his power and gained the allegiance of the Dementors?

What kind of magic allowed him to stay away from death?

Currently, due to Summer Solstice's intervention, Dumbledore has not yet connected the issue to Horcruxes.

Because Horcruxes weren't the only evil magic that allowed Voldemort to prolong his life.

While Dumbledore was having a headache, Summer Solstice continued her journey and arrived at the Gaunt family's old house.

This is where the Resurrection Stone, one of the Deathly Hallows, is kept. Voldemort also turned the Resurrection Stone into a Horcrux.
