Chapter 481 Salazar Slytherin, Death
Chapter 481 Salazar Slytherin, Death
"I met a prophet in the alchemical world." Les organized his words and decided to start with Vashak's prophecy.
"You don't really believe those so-called prophecies, do you? If so, I will laugh at you." Rowena didn't wait for Les to finish, and refuted him: "Those prophecies are upside down, and you can interpret them in any way. Anyway, in the end, people will always find corresponding explanations for those vague remarks."
Regarding divination, prophets and their prophecies, the four people each have their own views. Rowena is the one who least believes in divination and prophecy.
She believes that the so-called destiny is actually controlled by oneself. The prophecies given by the fortune tellers can only play a vague hint. For the sake of magic, Rowena admits that they can indeed reveal a corner of the future, but it is only a corner.
Just like a blind man touching an elephant, the future in the prophecy is one-sided, and those who believe in the prophecy completely are undoubtedly a fool.
If Salazar said that he decided to die because of the prophecy, Rowena would definitely laugh at him and scold him to wake him up.
"What is the prophecy?"
Some people don't believe in it, and some people do.
Helga is the one who believes in it the most among the four people. Godric also believes in it, but he believes more in the long sword in his hand.
Hearing that Salazar met a prophet in the alchemy world, Helga wanted to hear what the prophet predicted first.
Rowena frowned as soon as Helga finished speaking. As an old friend who has been together for many years, she certainly understands what Helga is thinking.
But she can't stop it.
Les relayed the prophecy he heard, and the expressions of the two people became solemn.
Apart from anything else, it is quite remarkable that Vashak can see Salazar's background.
"From the perspective of training students alone, what he said is quite accurate." Rowena snorted, trying to divert Salazar's attention.
"So he not only predicted that you would die, but also gave each of us four a warning?" Helga was more concerned about the sentence "All four animal friends are sick, one sicker than the other", which was obviously referring to the four of them.
Godric, needless to say, is a person who needs the help of the resurrection stone to even appear, so his condition is naturally extremely poor. The same is true for me. My body is decaying and I don't know when I will die of old age. Rowena is simply a ghost. She can't even be considered a living person when she is not possessed.
Salazar, who is in the best condition among the four, is now seriously injured.
'This prophecy is terribly accurate. ' Helga thought so.
Les said "hmm" lightly, but also said that this was not the crux of the problem.
"This prophecy is quite accurate. I think I should just follow the prophecy."
Rowena raised her eyebrows and was about to say something, but Les spoke before her.
"This is a good thing. A good thing that kills two birds with one stone."
"Good thing?" Rowena's eyebrows stood up higher. She obviously couldn't accept Salazar's words.
Les's voice continued to come out of the crystal ball.
"I know you don't like the words prophecy and fate, so let me put it another way... I'm doing an experiment, an experiment on life and death."
"Huh?"
It's true, the same thing, after changing the words, Rowena suddenly felt much more comfortable.
Of course, this is also related to the nature of the matter. One is to accept it, and the other is to explore the unknown, which are completely two extremes.
"I plan to explore the world after death. Now is the perfect opportunity. I will make arrangements."
After hearing the words of their old friend, Rowena and Helga couldn't help but sigh.
"The risk of your experiment seems a bit high."
"I have made some preparations."
The crystal ball was silent for a long time.
"Anyway, I just informed you that I have made up my mind." Les said in a very firm tone: "After you get the news of my death, remember to come here often."
Les passed on his address in the alchemy world.
Among the many things he prepared, this is quite important.
After getting the assurance from his two old friends, Les was relieved: it was stable now.
If it weren't for the two old friends, he wouldn't dare to play like this, now he can let go.
"So you really can't find a way to heal the wound?" Helga was still a little unwilling, she always felt that Salazar could still be rescued.
For wizards at their level, as long as they were not killed on the spot, it would not be a problem to survive for a while.
"We can make a device first, and when you step in, the time will freeze at that moment, and then Helga and I will slowly study the plan to treat you-" Rowena proposed an idea of her own.
Since she dared to say this as she was good at time magic, it meant that she was confident that she could turn the idea into reality at the end of the second stage of the game.
"Don't, don't!" Les was afraid of this guy.
Once you step into this device, it's hard to say when you can get out.
After some persuasion, Les finally made Rowena give up her idea.
"After I come out, my identity will inevitably be exposed--"
"We have already taken care of everything for you." Helga said impatiently: "Now your ranking on the scoreboard is normal..."
"Thank you, but I'm not referring to this, but to the impostor. I think you all know his identity, right?"
Rowena and Helga nodded together.
After obtaining new information from Aries, they finally figured out the true identity of "Godric". He is a remnant of the Norse gods.
"My current condition is very bad, and I can no longer hide the aura of my soul. As long as I step out of this small world, that person will definitely notice something abnormal."
"So what? At worst, the three of us will work together to get rid of him." Helga didn't pay attention to a small god at all.
In her opinion, the man could still breathe now only because the three of them didn't want to do anything to him.
If they really wanted to get rid of him, even if he was in Hogwarts, they would still have a way, it would just take a little more effort.
Rowena did not speak, but a thoughtful light flashed in his eyes. She felt Salazar was trying to take advantage of the opportunity to fish.
"It's not necessary. He will only take action if he has a flaw. The reason why he is not acting rashly now is because he suspects that there are top powerful people in Hogwarts, and he does not know the number of powerful people. Then I will be exposed, This is the best solution, because it can dispel his inner doubts and provide cover for the two of you."
Rowena said "hmm" in agreement.
"But I can probably guess what that guy wants to do... He wants to bring back the age of the gods."
After hearing Salazar's speculation, Rowena looked calm, while Helga was shocked.
"How is this possible? We must-"
"Not necessarily." Rowena's voice was very soft, but it made Helga lose her voice instantly.
She didn't understand why her old friend would say such a thing.
"Rowner is right. It is more in the interests of wizards to let the gods return now, and we can acquiesce in allowing that guy to complete this matter. Times have changed, and doing so is beneficial, especially for the modern magic world. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Les felt that Rowena would definitely not want to break through this layer of window paper, so it would be better to let himself be the bad guy.
When the cunning foxes disappear in the mountains and forests, the end of the hounds will come.
If wizards want to integrate into modern society, it is best to have a villain who is threatening enough to oppose the Muggles. In this way, Muggles will try their best to win over wizards, and wizards can take the opportunity to integrate into Muggle society.
So is there anyone more suitable to be a villain than the gods?
If the four of them had not ended the era of gods, the magic world wouldn't have been forced to hide, right? When there is an external threat of supernatural power, Muggles need wizards.
Helga began to think seriously about Salazar's point of view. Les took the opportunity to communicate with Rowena.
"How do you think He will bring back the age of the gods?"
"It's nothing more than making a fuss about the underworld." Rice shrugged, "It's just a mirror."
"Yeah." Rowena thought so too.
Even if the barrier between the underworld and the real world is broken, those gods cannot truly return.
The reason why the gods are strong is because they absorb more of the power of magical meteorites. These powers have long since disappeared with their deaths. Where will they go to replenish them now?
The most that can be done is to let a few phantoms return.
"And if my experiment fails, I still have to hope that he can resurrect me with his help!" Les made a careful joke.
He is also a little worried that he is being specially targeted because of his excessive strength.
Ordinary people can be reincarnated, but they will be cast into the underworld. At that time, I really had to ask this Gryffindor to open an opening in the underworld so that I could escape.
After explaining some trivial matters to Rowena, Les cut off the communication between the two.
He also had to start making preparations.
Putting the crystal ball in his arms, Les raised his head and glanced at the big tree behind him, and was surprised to find that it was actually a snake tree.
"What a fate..." Les sighed, and wisps of silver-white smoke-like fluid began to appear on the surface of his body.
"Smoke" flowed out of the wounds on his body like water, and then submerged under the roots of the tree.
A few hours later, the "smoke" in Les's body finally drained away, and the snake tree behind Les seemed to have changed a little.
The roots of the tree were faintly shining with silver light. But when I looked closely, there was nothing there.
Les nodded with satisfaction, and then fell into a deep sleep.
He needed a break.
After such a catastrophe, peace returned to the alchemy world and the competition continued.
As time passes, the situation in the standings gradually becomes clearer. This kind of marathon long-term competition compares the hard power of each school.
Because of the presence of Daphne, Astoria, Cedric, and Hermione, Hogwarts quickly topped the standings, far ahead, and winning first place was a sure thing.
Ilvermorny managed to retain second place due to the large number of contestants.
Other schools also have their own differences, but the gap is not big.
As expected, Durmstrang was competing with Kodosdorez for the bottom spot. These two schools were even surpassed by some small forces competing independently...
Finally, when the deadline for the second phase of the competition arrived, everyone breathed a sigh of relief: it was finally over.
Except for Hogwarts and Ilvermorny, which "landed" early, other schools felt tortured. Those with low rankings wanted to improve their rankings desperately, and those with high rankings were afraid of being overtaken by the schools below. Everyone was nervous and nervous.
It's time to start the carnival and celebrate.
After the contestants set foot on the land of Hogwarts again, they were greeted by a warm welcome ceremony and celebration ceremony.
No one noticed that when the contestants returned, the expression of the legendary wizard Godric Gryffindor became extremely hideous for a moment.
However, he quickly managed his expression and returned to normal, shouting with other Gryffindor students: We are the champions.
It's just that his eyes have been intentionally or unintentionally sweeping over a student with a bandage on his face.
He smelled a familiar stench.
That night, the four public lounges of Hogwarts were brightly lit, as if they were going to have a carnival all night.
Rice came to the astronomy tower to enjoy a rare leisure time.
Suddenly, all the sounds around disappeared. Whether it was the sound of the wind on the astronomy tower or the cries of animals in the forbidden forest in the distance, they all disappeared.
Rice turned around and found that the figure that he was so familiar with was standing behind him.
"This treasure is really good." Rice exclaimed from the bottom of his heart: "Is this is to isolate me from the space where Hogwarts is?"
"Yes." "Godric" squeezed a smile on his face: "As expected of Salazar Slytherin, he is really knowledgeable."
"Back in Valhalla, what treasures have I not seen." Rice waved his hand.
"Is it the stage of revealing each other's real names now? Then I won't be polite, show your true body, Loki."
Loki, who looked like a Gryffindor, was unmoved.
"This body now is my true body."
Rice raised his eyebrows: So that's it, no wonder there are no flaws.
Loki narrowed his eyes.
"If you hadn't revealed yourself, I wouldn't have recognized you, my [old acquaintance], Salazar, you're really good at surviving!"
"You've survived until now, haven't you?" The bandages on Les's body exploded instantly, revealing the snake scales under the bandages, "Stop talking nonsense, get started!"
In response to him, there was an overwhelming flame.
...
The battle is over.
Loki gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and raised a charred, barely human-shaped object high up.
"Salazar, you probably didn't expect this day a thousand years ago... Heh, if you hadn't been injured, it would be hard to say who would win tonight..."
The human-shaped "charcoal" trembled.
"It's all over." Loki didn't bother to talk nonsense with Salazar anymore, and a flash of red light killed the dying Slytherin completely.
Salazar Slytherin, dead.
