Chapter 665 Betting

"Wow..."

The waves caress the beach. Under the rolling thick clouds, this scene, which should have been warm and gentle, is like a mother tearfully bidding farewell to her son who is about to go to the battlefield to die. Two rows of stumbling footprints walk along the dry beach that has not been eroded by sea water. Extending to the fishing port in the distance, the young dumb girl lives as before, repeating her monotonous work of cleaning fishing nets.

She was completely unaware that the town she lived in had undergone earth-shaking changes. The desperate wailing and the soaring flames left behind her a scroll of hell, while the burning heat of the flames and the bloody blood of the killing were left behind her. Someone blocked her, and Tom put his hands behind her, looking at the girl's back full of struggle and curiosity.

"Kent Tanka, I don't think you even know the name yourself."

He said self-consciously, after confirming that Hai Erbo did not have the ability to monitor himself, he confessed his depressed mood to the dumb girl in front of him, just like talking to a tree hole, and there was no difference between Kent Tanka and the tree hole , at least a Rowena Ravenclaw's dead soul will come out of the tree hole in Albania to talk to him, but Kent Tanka is like a real tree hole, silently sticking to the trunk, and the words are blown by the wind Passed her, and quickly slipped away from the side.

"I touched the magic on you."

Tom opened and closed his right hand, and the tingling pain from not long ago still lingered on his fingertips. This pain seemed to stay in his soul, passing through his blood vessels and bones like lightning, and he felt it continuously After the pain, he asked Haierbo to investigate the Egyptian wizards who were struck down by lightning, so as to find a chance to find out what kind of curse he was struck by.

Haierbo seemed to understand Tom's thoughts. He was always suspicious, and he didn't ask Tom any details about his actions. He directly agreed to Tom's plan. He went back to the room alone and left a meaningful sentence.

"Karkaroff, I know that you hide a secret no smaller than mine. Do you know why I allow a person who is completely out of my control to stay in Sicily and stay by my side? It's not because of your respect for fate. Perception, I have the most outstanding prophet in the world, she is one with me, and she will definitely be used by me... What really attracts me is your desire, which seems to be smoothed by the enlightenment of fate In the eyes, the great desire that will never be extinguished, we are the same person, we can harvest what each other wants from each other."

Tom wasn't sure if Hai Erbo was aware of his connection with Nelson, but Hai Erbo, who hadn't recovered at the moment, had aggravated his injuries due to the forced use of magic, so he had to rely on himself. This balance would not be broken, at least it would last until Hai Erbo That moment when Bo's arrangement in Alexander served his purpose.

"Karkaroff," Hai Erbo turned his back to Tom, he was so weak, it only needed Tom to pull out a sharp knife to take his life, but Tom didn't do that, and Hai Erbo didn't show his uselessness He took out a silver coin and threw it on one side of the balance, and said to Tom who was packing up and getting ready to go out, "We are not the same, but you may become the same with me. I lost the last bet." Now, let's make another bet."

"What bet?"

"Didn't the Prophet never bet?" Hai Erbo smiled, "Let's use that poor little thing as the content of the bet, and also use her as the bet. Before the dust settles, you can bet at any time." Determine your guess about the ending, even if it is the last second before the ending, and I stand opposite you."

In the past, Hai Erbo would never say such words, and would never make such a bet. He would never even talk to anyone in such an equal tone, but this does not mean that he lowered his posture. From his tone, Tom heard the firm confidence in Haierbo's heart. He seemed to be confident that he could guess Tom's decision, or that he was confident that he could reverse the outcome at the last moment.

Tom suddenly had an illusion that the person with his back was not Hai Erbo, but Nelson who walked out of the gap in time.

He has been drawing nourishment from those who are stronger than him. Tom was shocked, but he didn't say much, and left the residence after taking his leave.

At this time, the harbor town has completely lost its leisurely past. People attack each other and even stare at Tom. These Muggles who make a living from fishing have turned into beasts driven by magic. Tom finds it a little funny , in a sense, this coincides with what Nelson has always done. He easily repelled those who dared to offend him, but he also found that as the people in the town Fewer and fewer, as the people in Alexandria approached the town like a herd of migrating wildebeest, they also became more and more powerful in devouring each other, Haierbo was cultivating a terrifying monster.

He tried to contact Nelson, but found that under the cover of dark clouds, all the magic that tried to interact with the outside world had lost its effect, Alexander had become an isolated island, and he would face Hai Erbo alone. conspiracy.

The point of this confrontation is the dumb girl who has no sense of what is going on outside. This innocent girl is thus involved in Haierbo's little "play", and Tom also instinctively understands that he must Breaking through his plan, in the process of thinking, his attitude of indifference towards the Alexanders and even the people of the entire era has gradually changed.

Tom walked along the path to the beach and walked in the direction where Thunder shot down the wizard. While walking on the beach, he found the dumb girl walking along the daily fixed route. He followed and began to talk to the girl.

"Before the World Expo in Paris, in order to test the capabilities of the projector, Lull once invited me to see a movie, which was engraved on the back of the film of that vulgar superhero movie, about a story that might become famous and popular around the world. s story."

Tom looked up, and as the tide receded, as the mother of the ocean left her doomed son, there was already a drizzle in the sky, and the sea wind shuttled through the rain, leaving a mournful sobbing tone, and The scenes behind them formed an overly sharp contrast, as if a home tune suddenly sounded in the silent sound at the end of a disaster movie, which should be regarded as an elegy for the seaside city of Alexandria.

"A man with a knack for instilling fear in others has broken into the home of a young couple whose hiding place has been betrayed by the man's closest and most trusted friends, and the villainous dark wizard is not targeting the couple Any one of them, even though they are engaged in the career he hates the most, or flow the blood that he hates the most," Tom recalled the plot of the movie, and the first-person perspective allowed him to quickly bring him into the perpetrator, He paused, waved his hand to disperse the raindrops on the mute girl, and continued, "His target is a baby who is still in its infancy, and according to a certain prophet's prophecy, that baby will become the one who defeats him. "

The dumb girl suddenly stepped into the pit left by the shell lying on the sand. She has walked this road countless times. Under the active sea water and marine life, she has a new look every day. For any fisherman, the ordinary road is very important. For her, it was a different danger every day. Tom stopped and watched her pull her foot out of the pit. Standing on her feet, she was about to step on the sharp fragments of shells and move forward. Such scars were already considered daily for her.

Tom doesn't try to help her, but continues to tell the story in the movie.

"The baby's mother, a woman named Lily Evans stood in front of her son. She had just given birth and was weaker than a Muggle. She was a woman whom a loyal servant of the dark wizard longed for. She rewarded that loyal servant, but despite repeated warnings, she still stood firmly in front of the baby." Tom felt that the story was a bit ridiculous, so he couldn't help laughing, "The black wizard doesn't bother to entangle with such a weak person, and kills him." Before she died, she left an ancient protection called 'love' on the baby at the cost of her life, and then, this magic defeated the dark wizard."

Tom shook his head, grinning the same way he had when he saw the Kedavra bounce.

"Kent Tanka, isn't the spell you left her the one I spoke of?"

Tom looked at the dumb woman expectantly, but when she recovered from the pain of the sprain and continued walking barefoot with her straw sandals, he didn't wait for a response.

"That's right, you died more than ten years ago," Tom shook his head, "Even if the magic power still exists, you can't still be alive."

"Woo..."

Dark clouds overwhelmed the city, and the only thing echoing in the sky was the desolate sound of the wind.

"The person protected by magic will live safely until adulthood. Come to think of it, your sister should be almost adult too," Tom said to himself. "As long as she lives in a place that is considered home, she will be safe and sound, but If she knew what had happened, would she still call this place home? The noblest people I have ever met can use violence out of anger. A humble person like her who grew up in suffering, How can it be possible to express kindness to this indifferent world? At that time, what kind of evil darkness will devour her?"

The dumb girl walked cautiously, and Tom quickened his pace. The closer he got to her, the more intense he could feel the pain coming from his fingertips, even unbearable.

"I can feel, Kent Tanka, that this pain is not for me, it's for it."

Tom raised his hand, clenched into a fist, and slammed his left chest. As the fist touched his chest, the throbbing pain of his beating heart spread all over his body in an instant. Black, twitching in pain, fell to the ground, blood flowed from his mouth, nose and ears, his vision became red and blurred, two horrible blood tears flowed from the corners of his eyes to his cheeks, every muscle of Tom was in pain Convulsing, he slammed his fist into the ground hard, making a crater in the soft sand that was quickly filled.

"Your sister can endure the pain of chaos, why can't I?"

Tom grinned grimly and got up on the ground. The dirty blood stains completely covered his face, making him look like a ghost crawling out of purgatory. Like a drunken old man, he staggered towards the dumb The woman approached, "I have no malice towards her, why does this magic hurt me? I see your reminder, Kent Tanka, there is a huge darkness in my heart, and you think it will become a sharp knife swung at her Is Hai Erbo really a generous person who chooses the best? Obviously not, he is trying to change me, not only relying on this ridiculous farce that happened in Alexandria, but also relying more on his most confident magic power, he The magic power flows in my veins, like poisonous snakes lurking in the treetops, infecting my heart, obliterating my conscience, and turning me from a wizard who grew up in order two thousand years later, into a harmonious This beast fit in the age of ignorance allows me to look at his atrocities in the Balkans indifferently, paralyze myself with the tasks I shoulder, and walk into his trap willingly."

The mute girl's footsteps stopped, Tom raised the corners of his mouth, and staggered forward. The blood left two rows of bloody footprints behind him, covering her footprints and smudged on the sand.

"Who am I? I am a genius who will become the most powerful dark wizard in history, a mere despicable Haierbo, why should I influence my mind!" Tom's voice became muffled, and he made a "hiss" like a poisonous snake His expression became more ferocious and crazy, and he approached the dumb woman's back step by step, "Is the bet on her? No, the bet is on me!"

Tom's knees were under heavy pressure beyond the structure's capacity, and the insidious and brutal evil and the weak but tough protection were frantically fighting in his body. Tom's vision became more blurred, and his fighting legs struggled forward. move.

"Your magic is about to dissipate. You can watch your poorest sister grow up, but can you bear the end of her tragic death after breaking away from your protection? Your father died on the day you were killed." Already dead, can such a muddled shell protect her stable life?"

No human voice could be heard in Tom's words, but countless snakes were entangled and shuttled.

He finally walked to the back of the dumb girl step by step, stretched out his blood-soaked fingers, and reached for her back.

"Give her to me, I can fight Hai Erbo, I am ten thousand times stronger than that idiot," Tom was already a little incoherent, "I will give her the life you want her to have, I will make her a real Man, I'm here to carry Haierbo's plot, I'm going to make him a real idiot... If you want, then..."

His voice became weaker and weaker, and the fingers that were about to touch the girl's back fell weakly, and Hai Erbo in the distant town showed a smug smile.

"boom!"

Tom fell flat on his face, and the dumb girl tied the knots of the straw sandals and started again, seeming to stop only because it was inconvenient to hold the shoes.

Tom's blood dripped on her back, causing her to show a puzzled expression. Tom, who was almost fainted, lay on the ground and murmured the last sentence: "...help me."

The girl turned her head in amazement, a tear flowed from her cloudy eyes, she touched her cheek, not understanding what it was.

The obscure symbol in the scratched eyeball gradually dimmed. As she turned her head, tears fell from the corner of her eye and splashed onto Tom's fingertips. Since then, Kent Tanka has become a name that belongs only to her. , her long-forgotten sister has completely disappeared from today.

Tom, who was in a coma, showed a smile on his face. After the magic of blocking the rain could not be maintained, the heavy rain poured down on his head. The dumb girl ran away with her head in her arms, and the rain washed away the blood on Tom's face. .
