Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 1102: Ideal and Reality

? For Martin, it is obviously not a very easy task to convene "congregations" and hold underground gatherings.Not to mention, in order to more deeply deter the congregation, he also deliberately chose the place of assembly in London.

Yes, even if it is already near the outskirts of London, it is still within the limits of the City of London.Similar to the Muggle world, the City of London is also a concentrated area of ​​power in the British magical world.

But to be honest, although Martin's approach has indeed achieved good results-at least many believers are under his various threats, and none of them dared to resist.

But in fact, after choosing this underground church in the suburbs of London, it also made it difficult for Martin to hold frequent gatherings.

After all, he had to avoid people's eyes as much as possible to prevent the Auror, the Dark Wizard from being hit by the Auror, and even being discovered by Namaka McLean.

However, it is precisely because this secret gathering was not held as Martin wanted, so every opportunity to call these people here will be particularly precious.

When Pansy's Apparition arrived at the last cemetery, she saw Martin was already waiting there.

"Sir...good evening."

While having to come forward to say hello, Pansy couldn't help feeling a bit regretful-all because of Malfoy's repeated urging, she obviously came a little earlier, so that there are only two people in the cemetery, she and Martin.

In this way, she couldn't help but muttered in her heart:

"I knew it, at least I should choose to be visible on the road outside the cemetery, so at least I can come in after the invisibility cloak is reactivated."

No way, although she had already put on the Auror cloak before coming over, the invisibility effect would temporarily disappear when she moved the Phantom Shifting Charm.

Therefore, when using them in the Auror, they usually do not directly reach the destination of the mission, but will pick a place nearby to show their appearance.

It's a pity that Pansy, who has never used this thing before, is only slightly familiar with the method of use, and she is not clear about the points of attention that these experiences seem to be.

"Oh, it's Miss Parkinson... Yes, good evening!"

As soon as Martin saw Pansy's arrival, he immediately broke away from the state of standing in front of the tombstone, with a slightly deliberate smile on his face.

"I'm very happy to see you here in advance, I think, this not only proves that you have enough contract spirit, but also has a lot of enthusiasm."

Martin's gentleness at the moment is not difficult to see, Maca's guess for him is almost invariable.

After so many days of consideration, he can be considered to understand the importance of Pansy, so his attitude towards Pansy suddenly improved.

And beside another tomb not far from him, following Martin's pretentiously kind words, Pansy also remembered some of the instructions mentioned by Malfoy and Maca respectively.

That's right, even if she is both scared and annoying to the man in front of her, her task is to try to get into the other side.And only in this way can she complete the task assigned to her by Maca as soon as possible.

As for the "plan" Malfoy mentioned earlier, Pansy still didn't know anything, so he could only put it aside.

But where did Malfoy go?What did McLean tell him again?

Speaking of it, as Malfoy said before, he didn't even intend to get into this organization with Pansy.Just now when the two of them cast the Phantom Shifting Charm at the same time, Pansy did indeed come to this cemetery, but Malfoy didn't know where he was.

These thoughts flashed through Pansy's mind, but she didn't think about it any more, but continued along with what Martin just said:

"Well...I thought about it after I went back last time. I really want to have a stronger power than I am now. Obviously, this kind of power won't be easy to get-I have to get it. Give something."

"...So, Mr. Martin, I am ready to contribute my insignificant strength to the mighty Mr. Helbo."

For Pansy, who was born in the Parkinson's family, this kind of welcoming is not in line with her character, but it is not a completely unknown thing.

At least in the past family social occasions, words like this kind of loyalty can even be said to be everywhere.

"Oh, is it?" Martin raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "If you can think so, it would be better...Miss Parkinson, I think you understand that too, but I don't want to always Use those "last means" to intimidate you. In fact, doing things for the teacher itself is a very glorious thing."

As he was talking, suddenly he spread his hands again and smiled and said:

"Look! The teacher is a genuine ancient wizard, so far no one can match his age alone-even the only alchemy master in modern history who has made a magic stone. But LeMay, he only lived a fraction of his teacher's life."

"And as far as I know, the teacher seems to be able to continue to live and never die!"

At this point, Martin himself couldn't help getting a little excited, but saw him wave his hand:

"Think about it! This is the real'immortality'! It's something Voldemort pursued for a lifetime... but the teacher got it a long, long time ago..."

When it comes to the temptation to ordinary people, immortality is obviously more powerful than any power or personal strength.

Therefore, Martin obviously came up with this rhetoric not only to attract Pansy, because even he himself came for immortality.

Pansy couldn't help feeling a bit ridiculous when he heard the guy talk more and more excited.

Yes, the power of immortality is indeed very attractive, and she is naturally not immune.But when you think about it, will Haierbo tell others his biggest secret?

It is too small to get a way of immortality from the hands of the "despicable" Helbo.

What's more, it is still unknown whether Helbo or McLean will have the last laugh.Judging from what the two have done so far, Pan Xi would rather believe in the latter.

However, she thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say the same on her lips.

At the next moment, I saw Pansy also forced himself to squeeze out a look of expectation, and then nodded and said:

"Yes! Mr. Helbo is an ancient wizard who has survived from the time of ancient Greece to the present. His power must be beyond our imagination... Oh yes, I can almost foresee the great Mr. Helbo standing here. The pinnacle of the times!"

Just as the two "talked together very happily", more and more figures appeared in this cemetery.Pansy, who noticed this, quickly flipped his hood on top of his head, and quietly covered his face.

Martin obviously didn't care about this, and was still trying to stir Pansy's enthusiasm with words.

After a while, the number of people in this cemetery shrouded in darkness increased. There seemed to be a lot of wizards who came to the rally last time.

Naturally, these wizards who became the "congregation" under the name of Helbo could not have come willingly.Rather, there are many people who want to leave this organization as soon as possible.

But it's a pity that the hidden dangers of the ancient magic rituals may not be solved easily.

Realizing that all the people have probably arrived, Martin temporarily stopped persuading Pansy and turned to face the believers who were standing on the open space.

After slightly counting the number of people, he finally spoke again:

"Welcome everyone to come to our second gathering, but before going in, I have to say one thing-next time you can choose to show your appearance directly in the church, there is no need to gather here first."

After such a reminder, he did not open the passage under the tombstone last time, but directly used Apparition, and disappeared in place.

In the following time, Martin waited for everyone to take their seats in the underground church, and then began a carefully prepared speech.He talked about the current situation of the global magic world, the past of every individual including himself, and the future that Helbo can bring to everyone.

His idea is not that no one understands-in fact, since people usually value benefits, if there is a generous return that can correspond to risks, most of you will be tempted.

However, although Martin said he was doing things for Helbo, Helbo did not give him much resources.And in the case of insufficient benefits, it is somewhat difficult for people to get crowds of others by drawing cakes to satisfy their hunger.

However, under the strong binding force of a certain threat, no one has dared to make trouble in front of him.

So until the end, the whole rally was actually quite successful...at least on the surface!

As for Pansy, of course she was sitting down like everyone else.

Because of Maca's previous instructions to let her "make some friends", she tried to exchange a few words with the people around her, trying to find some hoodies or something.

However, most of the people sitting here are very guarded, and they are even more worried in their hearts, and how can they say too much to her.

After more than half an hour, Pansy couldn't help but feel a little distressed-the task that Maca gave her seemed easy, but it was actually difficult to execute.

But while she was listening to Martin's speech on the stage and wondering in secret what to do, a series of slight crackling noises suddenly rang from around the underground church.

"It's the voice of Apparition!"

At that moment, everyone's heart passed this thought.
