Although Dumbledore might have dug a hole in the old wand, out of greed for power, Lord Voldemort would inevitably jump into the hole, but he did not know how to truly control the powerful wand.
Lord Voldemort knew nothing about the Sacred Relic of Death, and probably thought it was a ridiculous fairy tale.
Dumbledore's original plan was to let Snape kill him, so that Snape would become the new owner of the old wand.
Although many accidents happened later, no matter who it was, as long as it was not Lord Voldemort, there would inevitably be problems when he used the old wand to attack its owner. In the original plot, he also failed and died, killed by the out-of-control old wand. But with the continuous intervention of the four founders of the Hogwarts and the evil god, the old wand was now no longer the ultimate pursuit of power for Lord Voldemort.
He had a greater ambition, which was to transform himself into a terrible evil god like the despicable Herbo.
Lord Voldemort could kill Harry with his own hands after he became an evil god.
At that time, what could stop him?
The old wand? What a joke, Lord Voldemort who became an evil god did not even need a wand.
At that time, the whole world would be destroyed by him.
After seeing the battle between Slytherin and the "God of Death" a thousand years ago, Elwyn was sure of this. Not only was it an illusion of the evil god, but if it had a real body, the evil god would be a terrible monster that could not be defeated.
No power could defeat it, and all resistance would be futile.
Human blood and flesh would only be its food, while souls would become its nourishment to become even stronger.
Using the power of love to defeat the evil god? Elwyn did not know how to guide the power of love. Dumbledore did not explain clearly that the Sacrificial Spell used by Harry's mother might not be effective against the evil god Lord Voldemort.
"… You still don't understand, Elwyn!" Dumbledore said gently.
"What?"
"Every time the Lord Voldemort becomes stronger, he is actually one step closer to destruction. He appears to be stronger, but he is filled with fatal weaknesses. It was so in the past, and it will be so in the future." Dumbledore answered Elwyn's questioning gaze. "I never thought that Lord Voldemort would be victorious, no matter what he became or what kind of power he gained. Because he didn't know what love was, what protection was, what sacrifice was, and what courage was. He gave up real power and went further and further down the wrong path. If he becomes a dark creature like the Evil God, then the legacy of Hogwarts will be his greatest nemesis. "
"You mean the secret treasure that the Big Four left in the school? There's a powerful force inside that can destroy the Evil God? " Elwyn asked. No matter how he looked at it, the secret treasure left by the Four Giants in Hogwarts would be their last resort.
After all, they were powerful wizards who had the experience of defeating evil gods.
"Maybe!" Dumbledore smiled again. "But I think, you've actually found the treasure they left behind."
"How is that possible? I haven't gotten the key left behind by Slytherin and Hufflepuff, and I don't even know what's in the treasure …" Elwyn said. He couldn't help but think, could it be the same as the one in the Ravenclaw family's castle, a magic circle that had been accumulated for thousands of years, and the so-called treasure key was the mechanism to open the magic circle. When the time came, a powerful magic would be released to defeat the Evil God.
Or, it could be the magic engraved in the lost temple in the depths of the school's forbidden forest, a powerful magic that could seal the Evil God. When the time came, the evil god Lord Voldemort would be sealed in something.
If that was the case, then the situation wasn't too bad.
"The treasure left behind by the four founders of Hogwarts will never be any power, powerful magic, or worldly wealth, but the spirit that they hoped to pass on. It's the courage, protection, sacrifice, and love that I mentioned just now." Dumbledore said with a smile, pointing at Elwyn's left chest. "These are already in your heart."
"But …"
Compared to these precious spiritual treasures, Elwyn hoped that the four founders could put something more practical in the secret treasure. He wasn't saying that these spiritual inheritances were not good, but they seemed to be useless in defeating the Evil God and Lord Voldemort.
"In the chaotic and dark era of a thousand years ago, the four great wizards founded Hogwarts, the world's first magic school." Seeing Elwyn's doubts, Dumbledore explained slowly, "Since the founding of Hogwarts, the four founders have never stopped debating on their teaching philosophy, but there was one thing that they have always agreed on. That is, compared to the inheritance of their own skills and magic, they valued their own spiritual qualities more. Until today, it's difficult to find a spell from a thousand years ago or a unique spellcasting technique left behind by a certain founder. However, the spiritual qualities that the four academies of Hogwarts each valued have always been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. They are the real treasures that the four founders wanted to leave behind!"
"But these things have always been in the school. They didn't have to set up a test for me to pass these tests …"
"The purpose of setting up the test was to let you see their original intentions. A thousand years is too long, so long that many things have been simplified into symbols. For example, Gryffindor advocates courage, Slytherin values bloodlines, Ravenclaw pursues wisdom, Hufflepuff is the most tolerant, and so on. But these are not necessarily the original, truest thoughts of the four founders, but the understanding of the four academies by later generations. " Dumbledore said, "I can't say that it's wrong, but it's not all. Take Slytherin for example. In the eyes of most people, the students of this academy are full of ambition, shrewd, and cunning. They will do anything to gain power and strength, like Lord Voldemort. But in fact, Salazar Slytherin can sacrifice himself for his companions, silently working behind the scenes, protecting the Hogwarts, and doing many things that the world doesn't know about. The emphasis on bloodlines is just part of his teaching philosophy, because in that era, pure-blood wizards often inherited their family's bloodline magic. In theory, they are more powerful than wizards of Muggle origin …"
"Most of the tests left by the four founders are related to their own experiences. Through illusions, time transformers, and other magic, you can go back in time and see the choices they made at certain critical moments. You can really feel the spiritual quality they hope to pass on, and you can even give them some help. When you pass the test, they will give you recognition, which is the so-called treasure key. But in fact, you have already obtained the real treasure, and your philosophy has been shared with the founders. Now you are what they want a student of the Hogwarts to be, the true light of hope that will never fade!"
