"If we have a way to directly destroy the time turner itself, then things will become simple."
Jon stared at the time turner, and while speaking, he had already begun to try to use the second gem on the ring, trying to see if he could absorb all the magic in it.
However, then he didn't feel any sign of magic in it!
This time turner is just like an ordinary Muggle item. It is not powered by magic at all, but some other kind of power.
After Jon figured out how they should solve this problem, Slughorn also began to think about what to do with the time-turner.
After learning that Jon did not find any magic power in it, he immediately set up the crucible, and then asked Jon to help find some potion materials from Wu Pingxian. It took almost half a day to make a pot.
It looks like a magic potion like water.
"This is an extremely strong corrosive agent. Normally, there is nothing in this world that it cannot destroy."
As Slughorn spoke, he directed Jon to carefully put the time turner into the pot of potion.
But they just watched with their own eyes as the converter sank to the bottom of the dry pot, and the pointer on the dial continued to rotate, as if it was soaked in an ordinary liquid.
Jon looked at Slughorn suspiciously. Although it was a bit rude, he couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with the refining of the potion.
As if seeing Jon's doubts, Slughorn didn't say anything. He just gently threw a small teacup into the crucible, and the moment the cup was completely submerged by the potion, it was completely
It disappeared, leaving only some tiny debris settling at the bottom of the pot.
"It's normal to think about it. If this thing can be destroyed so easily, it won't be able to help Voldemort maintain the connection between the two worlds."
As Slughorn said this, he tapped the crucible with his wand, and the time turner flew out of the potion, and then landed on the ground aside.
Next, they still did not give up. They tried using the basilisk's fangs, found an open place and used the Fire Spell, and used the simplest and most direct physical violence methods to try to destroy the converter, but without exception, they had no effect at all.
After struggling until evening, Jon and Slughorn stared at the converter, which was still unbroken on the surface, and looked at each other.
"It seems that we need to seek help from some professionals."
...
In the empty hall, Dandy, who had long lost all signs of life, was lying among the people.
"I think I've underestimated your abilities enough, everyone."
On that high seat, Voldemort's seemingly casual and careless voice echoed in everyone's ears, and his words made everyone tremble involuntarily.
"You will give me new surprises every once in a while, which makes me doubt myself. Am I serving you, or are you serving me?"
His words completely made everyone unable to stand. All the Death Eaters knelt on the ground. They were silent and dared not to look directly at the man in the high position with their heads pressed heavily to the ground.
.
Voldemort's fingers gently touched the serpentine armrests of the chair. He looked at the crowd of people below and felt an inexplicable disgust.
His words were not meant to wake anyone up, nor were they meant to threaten, but this was what he really thought at this time.
No one has ever been able to complete the tasks or tasks assigned to them according to his wishes. Facing Wu Ping's attack, these people had no room to resist. Although they had not witnessed such a scene with their own eyes, Voldemort did not dare to resist.
There is no doubt that when the British Ministry of Magic was at its worst disadvantage, most of these people must have been ready to surrender or escape.
But after all, such thoughts are just thoughts in Voldemort's mind.
In the final analysis, the relationship between him and these purebloods is a mutual utilization relationship. No matter how powerful Voldemort is, he cannot complete the governance of the entire magical world by himself. The bloodline system was established to allow him to
Enjoy a more stable power reign.
It's just that the consequences this time really made Voldemort too angry.
Even more angry than when Jon killed him once in the main hall!
When he was stabbed to death by Jon with a feather, he knew clearly that he could not die, but Jon and Dumbledore had already paid a huge price, but in fact he had achieved a complete victory.
But after learning that the items in the Time Hall had been stolen by Slughorn, he could no longer calm down.
He knew what this meant, and he could easily guess the reason why Dumbledore was willing to pay such a high price to kill him.
My true secret has been discovered!
In fact, Voldemort doesn't care much about the secret being revealed. Nothing can be hidden forever. Besides, two Voldemorts exist in the same world at the same time. Such a biggest loophole will be discovered sooner or later.
What really made Voldemort angry was that the key to his immortality in this world was taken away!
And it was obviously Slughorn who did it.
When the fat walrus came to seek refuge, Voldemort was not on guard against him, but it was his other self who asked him to become the Director of the Department of Mysteries.
That idiot thought he understood the principles of checks and balances, but he was completely blind.
Do you really think that Slughorn's cowardice and vanity can really be left to chance?
If he could still pull out the eaten self, Voldemort would even want to give him a few more Cruciatus Curses.
But now it has happened.
His biggest secret has fallen into the hands of the enemy, so according to his habits, it is impossible for him to put all his wealth and life in one place.
There was silence in the hall. Voldemort was rubbing the serpentine handrail, thinking quietly about something, while the Death Eaters below did not dare to raise their heads, waiting uneasily for Voldemort's announcement.
After a long time, until the Death Eaters' legs had lost all feeling, Voldemort's voice sounded again.
"Restore everyone's positions before the war. Those who are dead will count the vacant positions and I will select them. Then, Barty, follow me."
