Chapter 587
Flying snow fell from the sky, and the blue light of [Fluorescent Curse] illuminated the distance ahead.
After Moody and MacGuffin both walked through...the dense bushes with wildly dancing black branches,
[Gaunt's Old House], it suddenly appeared in front of their eyes.
This dilapidated house, which has long since lost its owner, is half-hidden among the tangled bushes.
The dense and sneaky jungle guards the old house like a dryad in a horror story about Muggle parents scaring children... Their branches are twisted and intertwined, without a trunk, and the branches grow straight.
One can imagine how dense and gloomy it will be here in summer when these trees are full of leaves.
Of course, the sneaky jungle that has lost its leaves and only its trunks and branches is now even more treacherous and abnormal in this dead snowy night.
Normal Muggles certainly wouldn't be here.
"go!"
Moody motioned for MacGuffin to take out the ruby crystal pendulum.
McGuffin took it out of his pocket.
Immediately straighten this thing, parallel to the ground... and point to the direction of [Gaunt's Old House].
Of course, it immediately turned around and turned to another hillside position behind them.
Then, start to make a big circle.
McGuffin put it away and said, "Well, Professor Moody... that's the case, let's go in now..."
Moody said nothing, and the magic eye glowed bright blue.
He looked around [Gaunt's Old House], probably to see if there were any magic traps, or black magic curses...
In front of the dilapidated house of Gaunt's old house there was a clearing covered like cream with a thick layer of snow.
Occasionally, one or two yellow dry grasses protruded from the layer of 'icing sugar'... The closer to the rough stone wall of the house, the more obvious the traces of those weeds...
I don't know if there is magic, the closer to the house, the thinner and smaller the snow... Like a slope,
After reaching the wall, the traces of the messy dry grass or nettle grass became more obvious.
There are some small windows on the uneven walls.
The windows were so small that it almost seemed as if the owners of the house had not allowed any light and air in, and the glass of those windows was covered with thick adult grime, completely gray.
Even in broad daylight, it is estimated that it is impossible to see the situation in the room clearly.
The roof of the house was covered with a layer of snow, but the McGuffin could still see its tattered appearance,
At the edge of the roof, the rafters that should have been covered with tiles were exposed, and at the corner of the wall below, some broken tiles were piled up indiscriminately.
It feels like it's slipping off the top, smashing it down... as if no one cares.
Moody quietly led the McGuffin to step on the snow in the open space, moving very cautiously, leaning over cautiously.
When the two came to the door, they saw a complete snake bone nailed to it.
Nailed into an 'S' shape.
Moody stretched out his wand, circled lightly in front of the door, and emitted a ray of light,
The door—creaking—like an old tree sighing, turned and opened with great effort, revealing the dark and deep 'cave' inside the room.
"Wait a minute, Professor!"
"Let me explore the way first!"
McGuffin stopped Moody's progress.
He still remembered the last time, when he and Sirius went to that cave to look for the [Slytherin's Locket], how many magical organs and terrifying guards did they encounter,
Voldemort's vile and cruel character is vividly reflected in those magical institutions...
And Dumbledore's end in the original plot also reminded McGuffin what kind of dragon's den and tiger's den his dilapidated, uninhabited house was.
They have to tread carefully.
Moody looked at McGuffin strangely.
McGuffin explained a bit, and took out the 'sackcloth bag containing a small Guffin' directly from his pocket.
Just like last time, McGuffin poured out all these little things at once, let them pat the queue, spread out in the room, and tested the magic mechanism to see if there was any deadly black magic curse.
And look for that 【Horcrux Marvologunte's Ring】.
This is the best way.
After understanding the usefulness of this spell, Moody also stopped, waiting for the results of McGuffin's exploration.
McGuffin closed his eyes and connected his attention to one of the little Guffins, looking for the structure of [Gaunt's Old House].
There seemed to be three small rooms in the house, the large one in the center doubled as a kitchen and living room, and had two doors leading to the other rooms.
The little Guffins are in groups, squeaking everywhere... This one is playing around in a place where they seem to be quite big, and by the way, carrying out the orders of the McGuffins.
The room was covered with thick dust, cobwebs, poisonous snakes, rats all over the house.
There was a saucepan on top of the soot-covered stove, and a pile of dirty pots and pans on the shelf above.
This is a paradise for reptiles and mice.
When the Little Guffins came here, they didn't encounter any terrible black magic mechanism. Instead, they first fought with various insects, rats and poisonous snakes.
Fortunately, the sound of explosions and various lights from their little spells scared away the insects, rats and ant snakes.
Soon, the Little Guffins found a palm-sized box...
The whole room was filthy, full of dust and dirt, only one place, half a meter away from the palm-sized box, a perfect small circle... It was wiped clean like a hotel auditorium.
Very conspicuous, as if the answer was directly fed into their mouths.
He shouted that this is the [Marvolo Gunter's Ring].
How can it be!
McGuffin shook his head, absolutely in disbelief.
However, those little Guffins searched back and forth, up and down, in the three rooms several times, and only this thing was considered the most suspicious.
Everywhere else was covered with dirty stains.
It was hard for him to imagine that a guy as vain as Voldemort would allow the [Horcrux] that carried a part of his soul to become like that.
After hesitating again and again, he directed the other Mini Guffins to climb up to the counter near the dirty wall.
Approaching the suspicious box, he put the golden ring inlaid with black gemstones inside...
He held it in his arms at once.
--safe and sound!
No hexes, curses erupt.
McGuffin knew right away that something was wrong.
This is not right.
In the plot, the ring is attached to a very powerful black magic, even Dumbledore suffered from it.
How can it be!
The McGuffin disconnected from the McGuffin at once.
He looked down at Moody.
Moody was staring straight at (whether it was the normal eye or the magic eye) the snake bone on the door, his face was solemn, as if he had discovered something.
"professor!"
McGuffin shook his head, "I found something similar to [Horcrux], but how should I put it? I feel like it's a..."
"trap!"
Moody took the first step and said with great certainty.
As he said that, he stretched out his arms and placed them in front of McGuffin, pulling him back two steps.
He said in a very stern tone, "Don't go in."
"No matter what you saw with that little magic man just now, it's all fake...or..."
Moody froze his body and his expression became even uglier.
"Or... what we see now is also - fake."
He reached out and closed the magic eye, put it in the palm of his hand, and raised it high,
With his other hand he took out his wand and tapped the thing.
The magic eye released a bright light, like a searchlight, emitting a blue light... 360-degree sweeping around.
Then, it concentrated on the snake bone on the door.
At this moment, McGuffin trembled in his heart.He was surprised and horrified to find that the door that was opened before had been quietly closed before their eyes.
As if it hadn't been opened.
And those little MacGuffins have recovered into strips of silver, trembling at the feet of the MacGuffins.
It was as if he was directing those little things, and it was like a dream just entering it.
And that snake bone...
Creak creak... The bones of his body made a sound, and he twisted his skeleton body under the iron nails, and he came alive.
McGuffin quickly raised his wand, alerting his surroundings,
He didn't know what he was guarding against.
Was it those Muggle monsters just now, or... Voldemort?
Either way, this situation is not right.
Just when McGuffin thought it was the worst situation, he suddenly found that the snowstorm had stopped at some point.
No, it should be said that it disappeared without a trace.
A red hazy crescent moon hangs high in the sky.
The dazzling red light, as Moody had shown in the bar earlier, began to fill the sky and the earth.
The [Old Gunter House] in front of them, the dilapidated house, peeled off in an instant and collapsed into pieces.
Turned into a pile of ruins.
Roofs, tiles, gravel, knee-length thatch, nettle grass covered the entire site...
Wait...where's the snow?
All the snowflakes and cold winds in the world...disappeared, frankly disappeared...What appeared before the two of them was a dilapidated world shrouded in red light.
Everything is covered with a layer of red light.
The ruins, the thatch, the earth, the sky, and even their bodies were covered with a layer of red light, like a mist.
McGuffin was speechless in astonishment.
He has only one thought now,
——What kind of unlucky mission did the damned old bee send him.
and many more!
In McGuffin's mind, something suddenly came to mind.
This strange world that suddenly changed...
Isn't this Silent Hill?
damn it!
What a joke!
McGuffin immediately looked at the wand in his hand, and saw that Alatos Moody next to him hadn't disappeared,
Only then did he feel a little relieved in his heart, and asked, "Professor, do you know what's going on?"
Moody pushed the magic eye back again, and he stared blankly at the red crescent moon, which was full of scars, like a sculpture with an indescribably weird expression.
suddenly,
The false eye was immediately turned to the back of the head by Moody, and he immediately raised his wand, turned back to where they had come, and shouted, "Who!?"
McGuffin's heart skipped a beat too, and he looked back with Moody.
Just when he thought it was some horrible monster again,
Or simply Voldemort's time.
Supported by two figures... they slowly walked out from the even more distorted bushes.
one of them mcguffin also knew
No, not just McGuffin, even Moody had seen this man just now—
It's Fleck Bryce.
However, the situation of this Muggle does not seem to be very good.
He was supported by another muscular Muggle, and was bound at the waist with a strip of cloth torn from his clothes.
The blood on it kept soaking the outer clothes, slowly oozing out.
The MacGuffin gave Moody a look,
Moody nodded slightly, indicating that there was nothing wrong with it. It didn't look like it was transformed by some monsters or dark wizards.
"How did you come here... No, what are you doing here with that kind of thing!" Overland D. Webb asked angrily.
While supporting Fleck, he pointed a shotgun at the two of them with one hand.
Apparently, to a Muggle, a guy with a cloak and two thin sticks isn't even a pagan, but a big-city brainy guy, a lunatic who loves fancy dress.
However, what happened tonight was already bizarre enough.
This Muggle is really strong enough to maintain his sanity until now.
Looking at Fleck next to him, even if he wasn't injured, he was probably about to collapse.
MacGuffin could understand the idea of a Muggle who never knew the other side of the world in Overland.
Overland D. Webb helped Flake to come over, and then ordered in a natural tone, and said to the two, "You two...no matter where you come from, or what tricks you come here to play, as long as you are not those crazy heretics. I want to tell you...Look at the sky, around...This is no longer a place for you to play house..."
As he said that, he sighed at Moody, obviously seeing Moody at such an age, and playing with a child of McGuffin's age, it was a bit unsightly.
"You explain it!" Moody ignored it with a cold face.
He continued to look at everything around him, trying to figure out what was going on with the changes around him.
Overland chattered to McGuffin and the others, asking if there were any first-aid supplies like bandages or cloth strips.
Fleck, on the other hand, could see that something was wrong (especially Moody's fake eye, which was spinning around).
He asked weakly, "Explain what..."
McGuffin raised his wand, and said to Fleck that famous famous phrase full of 'preciousness', "It's nothing...you look out, I'll only demonstrate it once!"
"What!" Overlan looked a little nervous, and seemed to regard McGuffin as a lunatic.
He stood in front as if he wanted to prevent the MacGuffin from attacking Fleck.
However, McGuffin didn't do much, just waved his wand and said, "Back to the original!"
light flashed,
The wound on Fleck's old waist healed instantly.
Overland took a step back, and the expression on his face...showed that his sanity was about to explode.
"What the hell is this—ah."
He tried his best to get close to the McGuffin, to observe whether there were any organs or the like in the wand.
A look of disbelief.
