Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 724: Despicable Helbo
After being held under the ground for a thousand years, anyone would feel unparalleled depression, so from the moment Maca saw Hailebo, he found that the other party's desire to speak was obviously extremely strong.
This is a matter of course. Rather, it is a miracle that this old guy has not gone mad after spending thousands of years of darkness.
Therefore, although Maca was somewhat upset at hearing, he did not stop the other party's words.After all, it is very impolite to interrupt someone's words suddenly...
Ok!In fact, he just felt that it was actually more likely to immediately annoy the old guy in front of him.
When there is no holiday between the two sides, Maca has always disliked provocative provocations—especially when there is no benefit to him.
Therefore, after mentioning some of Merlin's past, Helbo talked about a lot of messy topics casually.The content of these topics is naturally inseparable from the years he lived in, and most of them are related to magic.
Regardless of the old man's name as the "most influential black wizard in history", it can be seen from what he said, at least as a wizard, he is indeed worthy of this status.
"But to be honest, this guy feels a bit like Greenward..." Maca listened to the nonsense, and thought to himself, "Oh no, in terms of age, it should be Greenward. Is it right to be like him?"
Probably speaking alone is a bit boring. If no one responds, one or two more people in front of you seem to be basically the same as when you are buried in the ground.
Therefore, while speaking, Helbo also slowly stopped by himself.
"...The young people now are a bit exactly the same as they used to be," Haierbo suddenly changed his speech, and his smile faded slightly. "When listening to the elders, do you always lose patience quickly?"
In response, Maca had to shrug slightly.
"I think I am patient enough among my peers," he said calmly. "If you want to continue, I don't mind listening for a while."
"Humph..." Helbo chuckled twice, then shook his head, "You are listening, and you don't show any impatience on the surface. But your soul told me... young man, you seem to be Are there any snacks?"
When Maca heard the words, he couldn't help but jumped slightly.
"Really?" He said, "Of course, maybe there is something...No matter how you say it, your topics are not generally remote to me! If you always listen to things that have nothing to do with me, I'm afraid it's not just'young people', but old people may not be able to listen to them all, right?"
"Oh, there is some truth to this..." Haierbo nodded. "Although I have never liked the little girl film of Rowena, there is a saying she said quite right-in front of the vast world of truth. , Age is never the only criterion to distinguish between wisdom and talent."
He said, but he looked at Maca again, and then he continued: "Just like you—young man, your soul is very interesting, huge and stable. This has almost broken the rules of soul for mankind. Conventional definition...I have to say, you are being looked after by this world..."
His own soul is somewhat abnormal, which is a fact that Maca has gradually begun to know recently.
Therefore, he can easily use all the materials, all the production techniques...and even the wands that everyone is currently possessing; therefore, he will have a standard magic flame reaction phenomenon when using Floo powder; therefore, he can never Normally cast the Phantom Shifting Curse, but can only travel around the world by relying on his improved door key.
But this was the conclusion he gradually reached through a series of detailed studies, and what he didn't expect was that Haierbo in front of him could see something wrong at a glance.
I don’t know for the time being, but in terms of understanding the rules of the soul, this old guy is definitely far above Maca!
"Okay, I've talked enough, you don't like to listen to the old people's long-windedness, there is nothing you can do..." At this moment, Haierbo brushed off his robe and said leisurely, "Then, look at that kid to help me For the sake of seeing the sun again, I will give you a special opportunity to choose—"
Having said this, he beckoned suddenly, and Maca's brows suddenly frowned.Because he realized that he had never thought of a very important truth.
That is……
Just when Helbona's hand that looked like a dead branch dropped randomly, an extremely familiar thing immediately appeared beside him.Of course Maca knew that thing, because it was the ancient magic mirror that he had sealed in the center of the underground palace earlier!
"It turns out... the floor-to-ceiling round mirror that Greenward found was actually Helbo's thing?"
As expected, there is a mural of this ancient mirror in Haierbo's Tomb Palace.Then, at any rate, he should also imagine the possibility that this mirror might be owned by Helbo.
It may not mean certain, but there is always value as a hypothesis, does it?
When Maca frowned and pondered for a moment, Helbo's fingers had lightly hit the center of the magic mirror.
And because of him, the last soul rule rune that Maca used to seal the ancient mirror was immediately dissipated and disappeared, making him suddenly startled.
However, the soul swallowing scene that Maca expected did not appear.
"Choose one! I only want the soul of one of you, any one of you can—" There is still a smile on Haierbo's face, and it can even make people feel a little kind, but what he said It's cruel.
"As far as the deliciousness of the soul is concerned, I still like you better... the young man who is being looked after..." He smiled, "However, I can still give you the opportunity to choose, because you deserve it. reward."
Haierbo was still smiling, laughing surprisingly peaceful, but this made people clearly feel the full of maliciousness behind his smile.
He was like...like a cruel beast trying to tease its prey for fun before eating.
Behind Maca, Ensi suddenly felt a numb scalp.Because he realized that he didn't understand the conversation between the two at all, but he heard the sentence just now clearly, as if the other party had directly conveyed the meaning to his head.
"Professor McLean—"
However, at this moment, Maca suddenly stretched his frowning eyebrows again.
He still didn't look at Ensi behind him, but spread his hands and shifted his sight from the old mirror, calmly and naturally looking at Haierbo's old face.
"Well, because of this, you are called the'despicable' Helbo?" He nodded to himself, "Inducing negative emotions from the'food' can make them more'delicious'. '...That's right, right?"
"Oh?"
After Hearbo heard this, the smile on his face faded slightly, but it quickly became more full-blown.
"You mean to say--"
"It doesn't matter what I think, because you didn't mean this originally?" Maca said with a smile on his face. "The two options you gave do not exist at all. , All you want is the process by which we are forced to make a choice."
"Interesting, really interesting..." Helbo raised his hands and patted twice, complimenting Maca's words, "So, after all... Do you choose or not?"
After talking so much with this old guy, Maca can really understand each other.What he has to say is only one thing he understands best now-this meeting today is obviously not good anymore.
"Actually!" Maca still maintained the smile on his face, and said in a calm tone, "I am a person who never likes to choose options arranged by others, because...I also like to give questions to others. People!"
Before he could finish his words, the staff he held in his right hand from the beginning burst out an ice-blue brilliance, and the cooling rune took shape in an instant.
In just the blink of an eye, the absolutely terrifying low temperature enveloped hundreds of meters around him in the blink of an eye, turning all the mud and rocks outside the tomb passage into pale frozen ground.
But in the next second, Maca's hand holding the staff shook suddenly, and the cooling rule rune collapsed silently.
"Surprising, young man, your performance is really surprising!"
Haierbo applauded again, and it was obviously more than just now, and the applause echoed in the tomb passage that had completely turned white.
"Unexpectedly, the initial cooling beam condensed by the power of the rules is not your highest understanding of the rules. However, what surprised me the most is—"
As the old guy said, he moved his gaze over Maca's shoulder and looked at the position behind him.
That's right, just before Shijai Maca constructed the rune of the cooling rules, he activated the door key that had already been handed to Ensi.
And now, that little guy has probably returned safely to the gate of Hogwarts, right?
"Speaking of accidents, I am actually the same here!" Maca glanced at his right hand, which had stopped shaking at this time, thoughtfully, "The rules of the soul are indeed hard to guard against. It just made me even more surprised. The thing is-Your Excellency Helbo, you know that my soul is very'abnormal', and you know that I have learned some soul rules..."
As he said, he suddenly paused on the ground with his staff, and the gaze staring at his right hand also lifted up again, gently falling towards Helbo's sleeves and robe hem.
"...Is it really enough with just this little effort?"
