Chapter 313 Dumbledore's International Network
What William meant was simple.
Even if he defeats Old Tom, he will not die because of the existence of Little Tom, and will continue to wait for his resurrection... On the contrary, the same is true for Little Tom!
What is a Horcrux?
A part of the soul resides in an object outside the body.That way, even if your body is attacked or destroyed, you won't die.Because there is still a part of the soul that is not damaged in the world.
For Little Tom and Old Tom, each other is a part of the soul that exists in the world.
The two became each other's horcruxes, a horcrux matryoshka, a real...undead duo!
"William, your concern is very likely...and it has actually happened."
Dumbledore said with emotion: "No one has ever made more than one Horcrux, the tearing of the soul is enough to drive a normal person crazy.
But Voldemort may have made more than one.
No one's Horcrux has ever been resurrected, possessing a body from a soul state.
But Tom did.
Voldemort has entered a magical realm that no one has ever known and no one has set foot in. I think Little Tom and Old Tom do form a Horcrux symbiosis in a strange state. "
"Can't we never kill them?" William was shocked.
"Son, have you ever noticed something, when Tom talks to you, he keeps reminding you that he is a piece of Voldemort's soul?"
"Yes."
"To a wizard like me, he's implying... no, almost expressing me, he's a Horcrux... The secret of Voldemort's immortality is the Horcrux!"
"Why would he do that?" William wondered.
"Tom is just a piece of soul, because of the earliest split, it may have a larger weight than other fragments.
And because Voldemort wanted others to open the Chamber of Secrets...his autonomy was stronger.
These two particularities led to his successful resurrection.
But the problem is, he is just a piece of soul, no matter how big it is, it is just a piece of soul, after all, it cannot be compared with a complete soul.
His growth rate will always be fixed at 16 years old. "
"Why did he do everything possible to sacrifice his soul and escape from the diary, instead of just killing other people to complete the sacrifice?
As he said, sacrificing one's true love is the most powerful.
That kind of sacrifice would bring him very close to the strength of a 16-year-old body... Sacrifice to other people would not be able to do this kind of thing. "
"But even so, his strength after resurrection is only 16 years old.
At the age of 16, he is not yet an adult, and his magic power will not continue to grow...even, his magic power is not as much as yours.
In such a state, Tom Riddle's strength is naturally restricted. Except for one immortal, many people can defeat him.
This is not what Tom wants, he is ambitious, wants unparalleled strength, wants to return to the peak, and even stronger.
Not just one eternal life is enough. "
Dumbledore paused, and said seriously: "So he also needs to find the Horcrux, and find a way to strip the soul inside, so that his soul will continue to grow.
His true purpose is the integrity of the soul! "
"Now, it is not us who block his way, but those Horcruxes, and even Voldemort himself.
Dare I say, Tom can't wait for us to kill Voldemort! "
"From a certain point of view, Tom has the same goal as us now!" Dumbledore chuckled. "Kill Voldemort."
William was in a trance for a moment, the world is really crazy.
The little snake has been used as a thug by the old Phoenix, and the two guys are going to unite first to kill the old snake king? !
Dumbledore said contemptuously: "If one day, we can completely eliminate Tom, it is also because of his excessive greed."
"But it's still the same problem." William hesitated. "Because of the existence of little Tom, the two are Horcrux symbiotes, how do we kill Voldemort?"
"William, I think Tom may have found a way." Dumbledore said calmly. "He knew how to sever that special spiritual connection."
"What?" William asked blankly.
"Slytherin's guidance!" said Dumbledore, "Tom mentioned Slytherin's guidance.
As far as I know, the four giants have different focuses in the study of prehistoric mysteries... What Slytherin is best at is the study of souls.
Since Tom has the records of Slytherin, he must find what Slytherin left behind. "
"Slytherin's wand!" William froze, and suddenly said.
"Oh, it seems Nicole has already told you," said Dumbledore calmly. "It was indeed Slytherin's wand, the only thing he had left outside of the Chamber of Secrets.
I can't think of anything else to guide him but that wand. "
"Nicole told me that the wand was stolen by Aesop Searle from her aunt Gormley Gaunt. After Aesop Searle's death, the clues were completely cut off." William frowned.
"The clues are indeed broken, but we still have to go back to the end of the story to try to taste the small details." Dumbledore said softly.
"The last time the wand was seen, Aesop and her husband James Stewart buried it in the ground outside the school.
Within a year, some unknown snakewood grew at the place where the wand was buried, which could not be cut down and destroyed. "
"Is the wand still under the tree?"
"Not there...everyone has checked, the wand has disappeared...but since that's where the wand was last seen, Tom must be going to Ilvermorney."
"What would you do if you were Tom?"
"Resurrect...or attach to a little wizard and go to Ilvermorny Academy to investigate secretly." William said.
"That's right." Dumbledore smiled. "Whether Tom or Voldemort has done this kind of thing, he is good at it."
Dumbledore stood up and removed from the shelf a locked book with a phoenix emblazoned on it.
He touched the latch, and it popped open.
Dumbledore was turning the pages of a book, each page bearing a photograph with a name on it.He flipped the pages, but all the people in the pictures were gone.
"It's a very small international network I set up a long time ago, to counter—"
Dumbledore paused.
"Gellert... Grindelwald."
William noticed that Dumbledore's voice seemed to tremble.
"Later, he promised me to go to Nurmengard, and the contact network has not been interrupted. Even in Voldemort's era... still functioning."
Dumbledore turned to a certain page:
A gray-haired old man appeared in the photo.
— Eulalie Hicks.
"Eulaly is the headmaster of Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. When I met him, he was a very young professor, not much older than Newt." Dumbledore explained.
"What's going on, Albus?" asked Eulali in the photo.
"Tom Riddle has been resurrected... I need to remind you that his target may be the snake tree."
Yulali in the photo left in a hurry, apparently to inform himself.
Dumbledore closed the thick book, clasped his fingers together, and said softly, "I can't leave here. We still need a reliable wizard to go to the United States to monitor Tom."
"Any advice, William?" Dumbledore looked at the boy with blue eyes.
"America?" William said without thinking, "I think Mr. Newt should be willing to go..."
"Indeed, Newt likes America the most." Dumbledore smiled. "He remembers it very well."
"Didn't Rita say in the papers... that Serafina Piccelli still misses him? He just happened to be able to visit Ms. Piccelli."
On the banks of the Seine, in a cafe on the left bank, Newt couldn't help but sneezed.
"got windy."
Newt tightened the collar of his little trench coat.He always felt that there was a malice hanging over him.
The last time it was so strong was when he went to America.
At that time, Grindelwald turned into Percival, lurking in the Magical Congress of America.
Then, Grindelwald sentenced him to a... death sentence!
The old man picked up a cup of cappuccino and muttered softly:
"I hate America!"
