Hogwarts 1991

Chapter 706

Although McGuffin and the others couldn't see the full picture of this change, many wizard professors below have fully seen it.

They looked up dumbfounded, and the huge relief of Snape appeared on the trunk of the entire World Tree,
McGuffin's heart and 'Dumbledore' figure, of course, also appear together;.

At the same time, from above the World Tree... a grand, strange sound of incantations began to reverberate.

Like an ancient spell, it is complicated, changeable, and has no clear direction.

Everyone at the foot of the World Tree had never heard of this type of spell.

It sounds like rumbling thunder, high-spirited theatrical singing, and wind and rain... Nature and inhumanity, flesh and metal, sea of ​​fire burning and ice lake bursting... Many different sounds are mixed in it.

They couldn't even imagine what kind of spell it was.

Not just them, even McGuffin, Harry, and DS Malfoy, who chanted this spell together, couldn't believe that they could cast such a spell.

The three of them are like puppets being manipulated. Under the influence of a vast consciousness, they unconsciously spit out such spells respectively.

——This thing is the world tree!

It was the World Tree who was manipulating them, not Dumbledore.

As for the professor... When the magic ceremony started, Albus Dumbledore sat on Snape's shoulders, acting like a sculpture, motionless.

This magic ritual starts on its own, and once it starts...the people in it, like a written program, can only follow the established route.

One by one, they sat in their designated positions and completed the tasks that had to be done, almost unable to resist.

When the huge incantation sound finally ended, the first thing that changed was the invisibility cloak covering Snape's body. It expanded rapidly, covering the entire sky like a sea tide.

Although there seems to be no difference, the people below are still bathed in the golden light above the top of the World Tree, but the few people in the ceremony, especially McGuffin, are very clear that this invisibility cloak has completely separated the upper half of the World Tree from the ground.

Then, before waiting for a few people to react to this.

The resurrection stone on Snape's forehead glowed silver again.

The silver light summoned a mist, and in the mist, many ghost-like phantoms appeared in front of everyone.

Many famous wizards, goblins, even the Big Four of Hogwarts...all appeared in front of them.

Harry even saw his parents, Lily Evans, and James Potter again...

The woman is full of charm, and the man has a chicken coop head and is slovenly... But both of them stared at Harry with love in their eyes.

McGuffin saw that Dumbledore and Snape were also fascinated by this stone. The two people who were like sculptures slowly opened their eyes... One of them looked at a younger girl (who looked somewhat similar to Dumbledore), and the other was also staring at Lily Evans...

Finally, the two Thestral tail feather magic wands floating in the air began to connect.

The runes written by Dumbledore with the blood of the three MacGuffins suddenly came alive under the stimulation of magic power, wandering around like tadpoles flicking their tails, densely climbing onto the wand, resurrection stone, and invisibility cloak.

These three extremely special magic props... As the most important pillars in this magic ceremony, they vibrated rapidly, and the magic power resonated back and forth among them.

The resurrection stone directly cracked a line, and those runes swarmed into it,
Then... McGuffin saw through [Curse of Echo Blue] that an extremely powerful magic power gathered in the world tree and injected into the two magic wands through the resurrection stone.

The tip of the wand shoots out an extremely thick, colorful and transparent bridge of light... Shielded by the invisibility cloak that almost covers the sky, it continues to extend... and shoots into the distance.

The beam of light and the cloak of invisibility expanded more and more, as if they wanted to build a passage out of here in the sky of this world.

"I, Harry Potter, are here to witness..."

"I, MacGuffin..."

"I, LS Malfoy, are here to witness..."

After the three MacGuffins finally witnessed the initiation of this magic ceremony,

The magic power of the World Tree is already full, and McGuffin can clearly perceive the restless and sharply increasing magic power in the surrounding environment without the effect of [Curse of Echo Blue].

The golden aura sprinkled by this golden tree seems to have the effect of solidifying various magic powers. Even with the cover of the invisibility cloak... they still feel that their magic power echoes with it, as if they are changing their own existence, as if seeds are about to germinate and grow rapidly under the skin.

The invisibility cloak that originally covered the sky began to be stained with that layer of golden light and the blood-colored runes, showing its own shape, and then wrinkled... like a sea tide... forming waves of troughs, peaks and bottoms, shaking the entire sky.

Those valleys and peaks are about to hang down to the ground, hanging upside down like sky pillars, connecting the earth.

Then, after Lucius, Scrimgeour, and McGuffin himself performed the last part of the ritual,
"I, Lucius... execute..."

"I, MacGuffin..."

"I, Rufus..."

After the three of them finished speaking one by one, they dissipated their magic power in the sky according to the instructions from the vast consciousness of the World Tree. There was no clear direction, but they resonated with the magic power emanating from the World Tree, stimulating its recovery.

Three sacrifices, three witnesses, three laws... and three pillars... The elements in the magic ritual turned into three anchor points in the world, and it is the world tree standing between the sky, constantly anchoring the connection between the power of the world tree and this sky.

It began to wake up.

The earth trembled, cracking canyons and ravines... The dark river of lava swept out from the ground, surging into the sky with surging waves, surging endlessly.

The sky roared, and the thick fog and thousands of golden lightnings trembled and blended with each other, constantly appearing.

With all these changes, [Jomengard] in the distant sky also seems to have discovered the recovery of [World Tree].

It suddenly accelerated the erosion of this place, as if it was going to compete, life and death.

The black-red sky collided with the golden dome, stirring... and there was a deafening sound. Where the two skies intersected, there were dark and bright lights, red flashes and golden electric lights... they collided one after another, tearing the sky there into jagged cracks.

Two incomparable, appalling forces... almost tore the world in half.

Fortunately, there is the alienated and expanded invisibility cloak as a means of covering this terrifying battlefield.

Otherwise, McGuffin felt, they would hardly have survived at all.

Just that vague sound made their hearts beat suddenly, as if they were about to shatter into several petals.

--ah!Ahhh!

Ah! (changing tone of voice)
The strange sound that came from nowhere resounded loudly in the sky.

It was a male voice, he was lamenting, singing,... as if he was praising the inconceivable... two giants that could not be erased by time.

It is like a song that has been passed down from ancient times and has not yet finished.

— Woo! — Woo!

A certain sound of long horns mixed with the singing sounded suddenly.

Boom - Rumble!
ca—ca—ca——

The sky...was really torn into several petals, and the cracks opened up at the place where the battle was fought...spreading in all directions.

McGuffin, Harry understood why the sky was fragmented when they first came to this world.

At the last moment of the ancient magic world, there should have been a war like this...even more terrifying than this.

boom!Boom!
- Om!

At the end of the chant, the Shen Zhong rang... and began to echo through the sky one by one.

And along with it, a bell sounded from nowhere.

The mana of [World Tree] and [Yemengade] began to be unscrupulously displayed in the world.

They seem to have fully awakened.

The long shadow floating in the sky, spanning the sky like a mountain range, was finally fully displayed in front of everyone for the first time.

--call!

Breathing out is the wind that sweeps the world,

--call!

Breathing in is the unavoidable abyss.

【Jemengard】Wandering its long body, twisting the triangular head that cannot be seen clearly due to its huge body, two pupils like the sun and the moon, hanging above the sky... coldly glanced at them.

Then, he started rushing towards the place where the World Tree was stationed.

Following its attack, the invisibility cloak that alienated into the sky...

呲!
After a sound, it split in two.

The terrifying magic power began to rain down from the sky without any cover, and evaporated in the world, corroding... contaminating everyone and all life.

McGuffin and the others stood in the middle of the world tree and saw an unbelievably terrifying scene——

【Yemengade】Break through the blockade of the World Tree's magic power little by little, its body...spreading with red lights.

The electric light sprinkled the ground, and as the colossal monster moved forward, the land it passed through seemed to be turned over, the entire crust was cracked and rolled, and bright red lava gushed out from the ground, drowning everything in sight almost instantly.

The woods and the magical animals that were too late to avoid... Like a footnote in a cutscene, they were instantly squeezed into a two-dimensional black shadow, which was sucked into it by the abyssal mouth of [Jomungard] and swallowed in one gulp.

It was like an eraser, with an unrivaled gesture... as if it wanted the world to erase everything.

cu——cu——

With the sound, everything turned into black shadows and disappeared in the progress of [Jomengard], and disappeared under the body it passed by...

McGuffin and the others could only helplessly watch this nightmare turn into reality. They desperately squeezed their own magic power, hoping to speed up the recovery of the power of the [World Tree] to resist that terrifying existence.

The golden light emanating from the crown of the World Tree, like an umbrella, temporarily blocked the progress of [Jomungard] and pushed it outside.

Like a golden mad snake, the thunderbolt continued to spread in the sky, making deafening noises, bombarding [Jomungard]'s body time and time again.

Terrifying magic power is constantly fighting in front of their eyes.

hold head high!
【Jormungandr】It seems that this stalemate can't be tolerated anymore. It opened its huge mouth, and its bony fangs are densely covered like the most dangerous valley...

It swung its head upwards, as if it wanted to crush the World Tree and devour it.

Click!

The crown of the [World Tree] shone, and the golden light that spread out was bitten... a little bit like glass shattered.

McGuffin's heart twitched. Even though there was no heart in his chest...he felt that the rushing blood in his body was about to burst.

Huge leaves like a boat, slowly falling down from above one by one.

At the beginning, it was still falling one by one... But after a while, like a rainstorm, transparent fragments and golden leaves glowing with golden light fell one after another... fell down.

McGuffin heard screams one after another coming from the foot of the World Tree.

The breath of fear, frustration, and despair spread and echoed in the crowd.

You don't need to look closely, you know that with the [World Tree] unable to protect it, the people below have gradually become the food of [Jomengard], infected, captured... devoured by it.

At this moment, McGuffin suddenly heard a voice in his mind.

"Albert!"

—It's Dumbledore!

"Now you can only use the ring in your hand, you haven't fully aroused its magic power..."

Of course McGuffin knew that he hadn't fully utilized the power of that ring, [Curse of Echo Blue].

The price of this ring is irreversible,

McGuffin doesn't want to become Dumbledore's current fate.

(The price that the old bee paid after using [Flesh Eye Red] for a long time is probably the slightest. He just lost his own body now... If there is no way to get rid of the temptation of the ring, I'm afraid... Even he will become a flesh and blood puppet and a magic slave of the ring.

Similarly, although [Curse of Echo Blue] paid a different price, it was not much better. )
Using [Mechanical Mind Labyrinth] (a talent upgraded from [Occlumency]), McGuffin is learning this way...to communicate with Albus Dumbledore.

"But, professor..."

McGuffin didn't know what to say,

He knew that Dumbledore was still that person, he and his close friend Grindelwald were actually a hunter,

They are capable of sacrificing everything for the greater good.

It's just that after parting ways, their beliefs are completely inconsistent.

Although both of them can sacrifice almost everything, even themselves, for the purpose, Grindelwald is forcing people to make choices by inciting fear, while Dumbledore is—

Let people make choices when they have no choice.

Like now-

The power of [Jormungandr] is eroding the [World Tree] more and more, and the golden canopy is gradually extinguished. In fact, McGuffin also understands... Maybe there is only one way now.

Use [Curse of Echo Blue] to fully activate the power of the World Tree!
Shir!
What a pit!
