I swung a sword at Hogwarts

He rubbed his brows and sent the message to Jin.

"Do your best."

The badge fell silent, and John sighed.

Voldemort is an ambitious man, but he is also a very nostalgic person.

This can be seen from the place where he hid the locket, which is a place he once visited as a child.

The best way for John to find other Horcruxes is to search all the places where Voldemort had been.

And this mission cannot be made public, let alone let Voldemort know about it.

Horcruxes have extraordinary power, and one needs a strong enough will not to be affected by them.

Kim is a great choice.

John divided the search into internal and external parts.

The inside refers to Hogwarts. If there is any place that has the greatest influence on Voldemort, it is undoubtedly Hogwarts.

Judging from the Horcruxes prepared by Voldemort, he chose the relics of the Big Four as carriers of the Horcruxes, so Hogwarts means a lot to him.

The diary is kept in the Malfoy family, the gold cup is placed in the Lestrange treasury, and the pendant is placed in the cave of his childhood.

There was a good chance that Hogwarts would have a Horcrux, but John wasn't sure where it would be placed.

Hogwarts is too mysterious, with many magic and mysterious places inside.

"Neville, I hope you can find it out." John chose Neville.

Because he is also the child who fits the prophecy, and is also the one destined to destroy the Horcrux.

If the Horcrux was at Hogwarts, there were only two people who could find it.

Harry Potter or Neville Longbottom.

They are all children of prophecy, and prophecy has a mysterious fate in the magical world.

To John, prophecy was simply causal magic.

No matter how you try to escape, you will eventually return to the prophecy.

John has a deep understanding of this.

He himself was a man with the gift of prophecy.

To the outside world, John asked King to search for Voldemort's past traces.

According to Voldemort's idea, he would never put all the eggs in one cage.

Glancing across the table, John waved his hand, and the things on the table were put away in an orderly manner.

The map was folded into the table, and a crucible appeared in front of him.

There was a metallic liquid boiling inside, and John threw some unicorn powder into it.

He took out a fluorescent leaf from a reagent bottle and put it in carefully.

The liquid in the crucible was churning, John's brows were furrowed, and the manic magic power was almost overflowing from it.

Under intense scrutiny, he gradually calmed down.

"There is great magic contained in it."

Keeping the crucible burning, John took out another crucible.

Open the shelf behind the hidden display cabinet, and you will see reagent bottles densely packed inside, each of which contains a white and pure soul.

Take one out, add the unicorn horn, and fuse it.

A bottle of soul potion was refined.

"Next we need to know what the specific curse of the Greengrass family is."

You need to be prepared to protect your soul before you come into contact with the curse.

These blood curses are extremely tricky, similar to werewolves and blood curses, and are basically death sentences.

Although the Greengrass curse does not cause physical deformation, it greatly shortens life.

Rather than a curse, it is more like a chronic poison that corrodes the human body.

As pure-bloods, the Greengrass family must have sought out famous wizards to check, but those people were unable to break the curse.

"It's said to be blood, but more is hidden in the soul."

The refined soul potion shook slightly in John's hand. He was not sure whether to perform a soul surgery.

It would be better if it wasn't necessary, because even now he couldn't fully understand the mysteries of the soul.

Mr. Greengrass also said that it is possible.

If not, that would be the best. If so, John needs to make all preparations.

Any Bloodborne requires a long research process.

"I need to talk to Daphne."

John walked out of the armory. Judging from Mr. Greengrass's letter, it seemed that Sister Daphne didn't know about the Bloodborne Curse yet.

Chapter 325 Inspection and Cracking Difficulties

Hagrid was very sensitive about certain things.

After observing the teaching process of each professor, Umbridge finally focused on Hagrid and Trelawney.

Although her character is not good, Umbridge still has a very sharp vision.

There were only two people in the entire Hogwarts who were not good enough, and she found them both.

This caused Hagrid to be very nervous during class.

When he gets nervous, he always teaches the wrong lesson.

He gets even more nervous when he teaches the wrong lesson.

It's simply a vicious cycle.

Whenever he saw Umbridge there, he felt he had seen himself being kicked out.

Umbridge was furious because Peeves chased her and threw ten dung balls at her last time.

She tried to find Dumbledore and ask him to help expel Peeves, but she knew she would be rejected.

This made Umbridge even more displeased with people related to Dumbledore, and Hagrid happened to run into her.

John could be sure from Umbridge's action of deducting points that Hagrid's test score was at least below 60 points.

The full score is 100, and scores below 60 are failing.

After class, Hagrid looked very depressed.

He took the cup as big as a small wine barrel and poured wine into his mouth. The three little ones comforted him. He asked them not to come over after dark as he was afraid of getting them into trouble.

As if he had seen the day when he would be kicked out, Hagrid couldn't help wiping away his tears.

Hagrid was mumbling something about the Ministry of Magic when John arrived.

The wine glass fell precariously over the edge of the table and was caught by John just before it hit the ground.

Yaya saw John coming and ran over to get some dog food.

After pouring two bags of dog food for Fangya, John glanced at the armor.

The armor he had given to Hagrid was placed in the middle with great care.

"John," Hagrid stood up groggily. John could almost hear the wine churning in his stomach. "Why are you here?"

"You forgot to bring food to the Thestrals today."

Casually putting the cup down, John said, "Don't worry, Hagrid, you'll be fine."

The wind from the open door blew on Hagrid's head, and he couldn't even stand steadily.

Seeing that he was about to fall asleep, John had to leave first.

Walking out the door, Daphne stood outside very nervously.

John said helplessly, "It seems that Hagrid is drunk."

Even through the door, Daphne could smell the strong smell of alcohol inside.

Frowning imperceptibly, Daphne asked in confusion, "What are we doing here?"

John asked her to come over as if there was something going on.

Daphne's cheeks grew hot as she thought of a possibility.

"Is there anything that can't be said in the Star Club?"

She regretted asking the question the minute she asked it, because it sounded like she hated hanging out with John.

John didn't care. He threw a piece of raw meat to the little thestral and said casually, "It's not convenient there."

inconvenient?

Daphne's heart was pounding and she looked at John nervously and expectantly.

"It's not convenient here either. We need to go deeper inside." John looked around and walked towards the Forbidden Forest.

Daphne hurried to follow, becoming more nervous as she went deeper into the forbidden forest.

Finally we arrived at the former spider cave, where Sirius was imprisoned.

The cell inside remained as it was, and John cast a shielding spell on the door.

Daphne's breathing became rapid. In this desolate place, a man and a woman were alone...

As a precocious child from the Western world, Daphne immediately had some thoughts that began to emerge at this age.

She nervously fiddled with the corners of her clothes with her hands and bit her lips.

"Daphne, I have something to tell you." John walked in front of Daphne.

The scent of lavender that Riddle had stained entered Daphne's nose.

At this moment, Daphne's brain seemed to have crashed.

She thought of all the possibilities.

"This matter is very important," John took a deep breath and said solemnly, "It also concerns your sister."

About...sister?

Daphne's eyes suddenly became sharp. It was unknown what she was thinking about, and the color on her face quickly faded.

She said in disbelief: "Do you like..."

"Do you know Bloodborne?" John said, and he seemed to hear what Daphne said just now.

He looked at Daphne in confusion. "What did you just say?"

"It's okay!" Daphne's mind worked quickly, the color returned to her face, and she changed the subject and smiled, "What is the blood curse?"

"A curse inherited from the family, similar to the blood curse."

John was puzzled by how quickly Daphne changed her expression, but solving the blood curse was the most important thing now.

He said seriously, "I need you to cooperate with me in an examination. It may be very troublesome."

"I do." Daphne looked into John's eyes, noticed the blind spot, and quickly asked, "Do you think I might be cursed?"

"It's possible for both you and Astoria." John said in a deep voice, "This comes from your maternal side. It's a hidden curse. It's best to treat it as soon as possible."

"What am I going to do?"

Daphne looked around. John brought her here specially instead of to the Star Club, which meant it was inconvenient to stay in Hogwarts.

Are there other actions required for the inspection?

If it's John, that's not impossible.
