Chapter 356 Compensation(1/2)
Link nodded, not much of amazement.
Because in his understanding Dumbledore is such a person.
But understanding is just understanding, Link won't let Dumbledore go like that.
His mouth slightly raised, and he pulled out a slightly sarcastic curve and said:
"This is not like your style of doing things. I thought that if you encounter this situation, you would give up Hogwarts without hesitation. After all, this is a great opportunity to knock Voldemort back to his dormant state or even directly seal it off."
As soon as Link said this, the old black-bearded man in a portrait on the wall couldn't help laughing.
This also made Dumbledore's expression extremely gloomy, and he said with complicated eyes:
“It’s not that level yet.”
So if you really have to reach the point where you have to, you will really give up on the entire Hogwarts, right?
This thought flashed through Link's mind, and instantly made Link lose his smile.
Although he had expected it, he was still shocked by Dumbledore's cold-blooded thinking.
Faced with Dumbledore like this, Link lost his interest in continuing to make a fuss and said directly:
"I am very disappointed with this cooperation. If you want to continue working with me, you must give me enough compensation."
After the topic returned to the pure exchange of interests, Dumbledore obviously relaxed a lot. He sat back on the sofa chair opposite Link and said while adding sugar to the black tea:
"Okay, after all, I'm sorry for you for the incident. Say, what do you want?"
Link looked forward and said word by word:
"Old wand!"
"No!" Dumbledore's eyes froze and said without hesitation, "It's not just the old wand, but I can't give you the invisibility cloak and the resurrection stone, because I have given Harry to Harry, and I have no right to deal with it. I have other uses for the resurrection stone."
After pausing, Dumbledore added, "I should have told you that the legend of the Deathly Hallows is fake, it's just a trap!"
Hearing this, Link smiled and said:
"Is the dragon plundering gold coins because it wants to use this money? No, it just likes these shiny things. Similarly, I don't care whether the legend of the Deathly Hallows is true or not. I just want to collect them."
Dumbledore obviously couldn't accept this statement and shook his head and said:
"I can't meet this condition, but I can give you something else."
After saying that, Dumbledore pulled out a blank parchment and began to engrave the magic text on it, then raised the magic wand and pointed it hard.
The azure blue magical aura instantly illuminated the office.
A huge amount of magic was directly instilled on the parchment paper, and as the magic texts on it began to light up one by one, an astonishing power slowly took shape on it, raging in the office with a strong wind.
After a long time, Dumbledore put down his wand, sweating profusely, and pantingly rolled up the parchment and handed it to Link:
"This parchment is sealed with a disappearance spell that is as powerful as my full blow. Next time you encounter a strong enemy, you just need to tear it apart to release it.
It should be noted that the seal magic on this parchment will gradually weaken. If not used for a long time, the power of the disappearance spell inside will decrease. According to my estimate, its shelf life should be about 3 years."
I! Isn’t this the spell scroll?!
Link screamed wildly in his heart.
At the same time, the heartbeats faster and the hands holding the parchment cannot help but start to tremble, and the pupils are slowly expanding.
Now there is a clear understanding of the effects that can be caused by a wizard of the level of Link Dumbledore under full attack.
To put it bluntly, this thing is almost the most wizards in this world, including Snape and Professor McGonagall, who will kill anyone, and they will kill them in seconds.
Even if you encounter a legendary wizard like Voldemort and Dumbledore, Link will have the chance to fight back with this piece of parchment.
At least it won't be as embarrassed as this time.
Then the problem follows.
Why didn't Dumbledore bring out such good things before?
Thinking of this, Link's originally hot and excited mood quickly cooled down, and his eyes looking at Dumbledore and the parchment also became cold.
"Link, you don't think this kind of curse seal is easy to make, right?" Dumbledore smiled bitterly and said in a somewhat weak and hoarse voice. "Tell you the truth. Every time I make this piece of parchment, I will enter a period of weakness for a long time. Now I guess I can't even beat you. If I gave this to you before, what can I use to fight?"
Link nodded, accepting Dumbledore's statement.
He actually had no reason to doubt Dumbledore, because when Dumbledore was halfway through his words, Link had already activated the super-sensory curse that had risen to lv5 due to the brain closure technique breaking through the limit.
The upgraded supersense spell not only greatly reduces the consumption and side effects, but also makes a qualitative leap in the effect.
With its help, Link could clearly ‘see’ Dumbledore’s magic level in his body at this moment had really been outrageous, and even his physique had slightly decreased.
"It's pretty good compensation, this time..."
Link carefully put the parchment paper in the scarless stretching spell bag, and said expressionlessly.
To be honest, he didn't think about what to ask Dumbledore for when he came here this time. After all, the Fley family really has no shortage of conventional supplies.
As for treasures like the Deathly Hallows, Link knew very well that Dumbledore would not give it to him at all.
The reason he proposed it before was just to ask the lion to ask and raise the price.
Fortunately, the "spoke scroll" given by Dumbledore is also very powerful. Although the curse sealed inside is a curse that seems to be insignificant when it sounds like it is not very powerful, Link is already very satisfied.
But before he could finish his words, Dumbledore interrupted:
"Wait, I have something else to give you."
After Dumbledore finished speaking, he stretched out his robe and took out a pendant on his left chest. He stared at him with a remembrance expression for a long time before he put it in front of Link.
"Take it, Link, this is my treasure, and one day it will help you."
Upon hearing this, Link frowned, lowered his head and looked at the pendant carefully, with a sense of disgust in his eyes.
This is a strange pendant with a slender screw that penetrates a three-dimensional rhombus shape. Most of the parts including the "screw" are made of sterling silver, and complex patterns are formed on the three-dimensional rhombus shape. Only a large gold ball is inlaid on the center of the rhombus shape, which looks ordinary. Even because of Dumbledore's long-term wearing, the surface is covered with a layer of gray color, which is extremely impregnable.
Of course, the most important thing is that although Link could sense some magic power from it, the fluctuations of this magic power were too weak and could not even form any basic magic spell.
So Link really couldn't understand what Dumbledore meant to say that this thing could help him.
However, for Dumbledore's sake, Link picked it up.
Just as Link's palm touched the pendant, Link's expression suddenly changed.
【Golden Skill Point*1 has been obtained!】
There was no explanation of the reason or any signs, a golden skill point was entered into Link's data panel.
Link:???
Link's expression was very strange.
He looked at the pendant carefully again, but no matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary pendant.
After pursing his lips, Link carefully put the pendant into his top pocket, but his attitude was very different from his previous indifferentness.
After all, this is something that brought him a golden skill point, and it must be an ordinary thing.
In his heart, Link had already believed what Dumbledore said.
Seeing this, Dumbledore was also full of relief and nodded solemnly:
"I hope you can save it well."
"I will."
"Then I'll be relieved." Dumbledore nodded and continued, "Then can you tell you what's going on over there next?"
Link changed into a more comfortable position and said:
"Actually, there is nothing to say. Voldemort set up the anti-epaurus appearance curse in advance, and his troops were more powerful than we expected.
Without you, Voldemort was successfully resurrected, causing heavy losses to my subordinates and almost cost me my life.
Then the most critical point.
Just as the battle entered a white-hot stage, two skeleton knights suddenly appeared, and they easily kidnapped Voldemort!"
"Easy to kidnap Voldemort? If you want to do this, the magic power you mastered by these two people will definitely not be weaker than Voldemort and me." Dumbledore said, rubbing his temples, "The worst thing is that a mysterious wizard of the same level appeared on my side. He dragged me here with Hogwarts as a threat.
And according to time, the reason why Voldemort on your side was forced to be kidnapped is probably because the mysterious wizard on my side is about to be unable to hold on."
"If you say so, without ruled out that Voldemort would join that mysterious force, that force should have at least three to four legendary wizard combat power."
"Yes, it seems that our enemies are far stronger than they thought."
Dumbledore sighed and said, "Okay, I will deal with this matter, just make a long-term plan. The most urgent task at the moment is to deal with the traitors in Hogwarts."
"You mean Kakarov?" Link said, "that guy has been killed by Voldemort."
Because he signed an "unbreakable oath" with Old Bati and did not expect it, Link concealed information about Little Bati.
Dumbledore had no doubt about this and said slowly:
"This is indeed Tom's style of doing things. Unfortunately, Igor has been with Tom for so long and hasn't understood this. But I'm talking about more than Igor."
"Oh? Do you have any other discoveries?"
Link was really a little curious. Apart from Kakarov, he really didn't find anyone else's possibility of being an insider.
