Harry's footsteps gradually faded away, and the office returned to silence.
Did Dumbledore deliberately make Elwyn stay? What did he want to talk to Elwyn alone?
Elwyn waited for more than ten seconds, but Dumbledore did not speak.
He had to take the initiative to ask, "Professor, will tonight's operation be dangerous?"
When he faced the evil god's eyes and body, he encountered a certain degree of danger, but in the end, he relied on the item left by Slytherin to defeat the two monsters. Iven's mana had a clear increase every time. This was both a test left by Slythrin and a kind of reward. 'Will it be the same tonight?' Lin Yun thought to himself.
The evil god's brain, eyes, and body represented a completely different meaning. In a sense, it was equivalent to the despicable body of Herbo. Just like what Dumbledore had said, they were about to meet the most powerful and influential black wizard in history. He might not be as evil as Lord Voldemort, but in the history of black magic, he would never be ignored.
"It's dangerous, but the danger doesn't come from the black wizard's brain that has been imprisoned in Azkaban for thousands of years." Dumbledore said slowly, "It's what we're going to get, the last item left by Slytherin …"
"You mean the Double Serpent Scepter?"
"Yes, do you remember our last conversation?" Dumbledore said, "Slytherin left the strongest power in Azkaban. He hoped to use this power to fight against the evil god's brain's mental power. "That scepter possesses this kind of power. It's a power we can't control, a power of calamity. Salazar Slythrin left behind magic that sealed the Evil God, and at the same time, sealed this powerful magic item. When we break the seal and defeat the monster inside, we'll have to face this power … "
What was so bad about it?
The last time they talked about this, Elwyn thought it was good news. As long as they could get their hands on the Twin Snake Scepter, they would become even stronger, defeat Lord Voldemort, unlock the secrets left behind by Slytherin, and obtain the key to his treasure. They could also use the Twin Snake Scepter to extract the soul fragment from Harry's head.
Elwyn had never forgotten this point, but judging from Dumbledore's expression, he seemed to think that it was terrible.
"Strength is a double-edged sword. While it brings convenience, it is also a burden. This is especially true for overly powerful strength. Lord Voldemort also knows about the scepter. If he really intends to summon the Evil God, the scepter will give him unprecedented help, far more than what it can give us, "Dumbledore continued." If we leave the scepter behind, he will have this opportunity … "
So, in order to not give the Lord Voldemort any chance, Dumbledore couldn't be thinking of destroying the Twin Snake Wands, right?
"Professor, what do you plan to do?"
"I have an idea, but I haven't thought about it yet. Everything will have to wait until we see the scepter." Dumbledore said, "Remember, Elwyn, we can't give the Lord Voldemort and the Evil God any chance, because the consequences are unbearable. I hope you can remember this. This battle can only be won. Okay, let's go! To get to Azkaban, we need to borrow the Ministry of Magic's door key. This is the perfect time to go there, no one will find us, whether in the Ministry of Magic or in Azkaban. Of course, it won't be hidden for too long, but it will be enough to buy us some time! "
Elwyn still felt a little confused. Did Dumbledore ask him to stay alone to remind him not to give the Lord Voldemort any chance?
Was it because the price was too high?
Considering the consequences of the Evil God's arrival, they indeed needed to be careful, but how should they deal with the Twin Snake Scepter and the power?
He followed Dumbledore down the spiral staircase. There was no one in the corridor.
Harry had returned to his bedroom to retrieve the Invisibility Cloak, and Professor Trelawney was nowhere to be seen.
As they passed by the House of Granted Requests, Dumbledore paused at the door.
"Professor, Malfoy … Did you really strengthen the security tonight?" Elwyn said hesitantly.
"Yes, I'm not senile yet. In fact, not long before you and Harry entered my office, Remus sent me a message. The werewolves will be on the move tonight, "Dumbledore said." I hope they won't do anything stupid. "
If they did, then the consequences that awaited them would be terrible. There were really a lot of things to do tonight …
… …
Harry quickly ran back to the public rest area and stopped where Hermione, Ron, and Elaine were sitting. Both of them were shocked.
"Where's Elwyn? Didn't you go to Dumbledore's place … "
"Dumbledore asked me to retrieve the Invisibility Cloak. Elwyn and Dumbledore are waiting for me at the entrance. I don't have much time!" Harry said, panting. "Listen …"
He quickly explained where they were going and why they were going, even though Hermione gasped in horror. Ron hurriedly asked questions, and Elaine kept asking questions. He did not pause at all. They could figure out the details themselves later.
"Anyway, do you understand?" Harry quickly finished. "No, don't worry about Azkaban. You need to worry about what's going on in the school. Dumbledore isn't here tonight, so Malfoy can freely carry out his plot. No, listen to me! I know that Malfoy is celebrating in the House of Granted Requests. Elwyn and I can confirm this, so … "
He shoved the Marauder's Map into Hermione's hands and continued. "You need to keep an eye on him, and you need to keep an eye on Snape. Call every D.A. person you can find. Hermione, use the communication coins you made to contact them. Trust me, Malfoy and the Death Eaters will definitely make a move tonight. Dumbledore said that he's already strengthened the school's security, but if Snape gets involved, he'll know what Dumbledore's protection measures are and how to avoid it. But he won't know that the three of you have been assigned to watch over him, right? Elwyn and I aren't here, so you guys are the only chance! "
"Harry, you and Elwyn …" Hermione said, but was quickly stopped.
"I don't have time to argue with you," Harry said hurriedly. He threw the sock into Ron's hands. "Take this …"
"Thank you!" Ron said. "Uh, why are you giving me the sock?"
"You need something inside the sock. It's a Blessing Potion. Take a little each of you three and give some to Ginny. Say goodbye to her for me. I have to go, Dumbledore and Elwyn are waiting downstairs … "
