Chapter 395

"Fortunately, they are all empty. It seems that this room is equipped with cleaning staff even if it is used as a toilet." Credence wrinkled his nose, and kicked a brass gilt enamel chamber pot hanging on the corner of his robe. He turned to the side, looked at Tom, and said, "I need a place that is wide enough and inaccessible enough to practice magic."

After actually inspecting Adele, a little girl who is similar to him but very different, Credence became more interested than before going to Hogwarts. The huge magic power contained in Adele is exactly the same as Mo Ran , but it has never revealed its violent and uncontrollable characteristics, as if the desire to destroy has been obliterated by some kind of higher magic.

Hope rose in his heart that maybe a devastated child like himself could find a real and effective way to heal childhood.

"Isn't there enough here?" Tom asked, frowning. He set up a barrier at the last moment when the chamber pots fell, protecting the heads of the three people. "When we are in the Room of Requirement, no one else can come in."

"are you sure?"

Credence pointed to the top of his head, and the three of them looked at the dark section between the ceiling and the upper floor, "The magic power of the silent one may need a larger space to be perfectly displayed."

"Isn't it enough to blow up or down two layers?"

"Are you really a Hogwarts student?" Credence raised an eyebrow and made a face that Nelson could never make. The right place is better."

"Adele, can you go back to the dormitory first?" Tom looked at his watch, walked up to Adele, pulled up her sleeves, and said softly, "Stay in the dormitory for a while and then go to the auditorium for dinner, I have something to say to this brother."

"Tom—" Adele gently tugged on Tom's sleeve.

"If you don't know the way, you can ask the paintings on the wall, and they will show you the way." Tom didn't let Adele finish speaking, he rubbed her hair, half helping and half pushing She walked to the door of the Room of Requirement, and said softly, "You should be very tired after casting that kind of magic just now, go and take a good rest."

Adele nodded, turned to look at Credence, and after receiving the smile of the "kind" with Nelson's face on her face, she turned and left the room.

"boom."

The door of the Room of Requirement was slowly closed. Credence silently looked at Tom's back standing at the door, his expression gradually regained his composure. After a while, he said, "Actually, you can completely trust me, just like Najib I trust you."

"But you're not Nagini. To be honest, I don't trust you to take Adele away from Hogwarts." Tom stared at Credence with a sullen face, his eyes sharp, "I'm different from Gnar, He always thinks the best of people, but I'm used to expecting the worst."

"I understand that if someone suddenly came to me and told me that he could cure Nagini of the blood curse, my attitude would not be better than yours," Credence nodded, and said with his hands open, "What is wrong with a moment?" Those who may erupt in obscurity should indeed be vigilant at all times."

"It doesn't matter what you are, I only care about whether you are a person who can communicate and communicate," Tom said coldly, "whether you are a Muggle, a wizard or a silent person, even if you are a troll— We said straight to the point, sneaking into Hogwarts at this time, I have to suspect that you have some ulterior motives."

During his wandering career, Credence has long been used to this kind of distrust. Almost all wizards will regard him as a monster or some kind of weapon that can be used. In comparison, Tom is not euphemistic. But it's much better to be open and honest, at least he is willing to treat himself as a human being, not a bomb...or like Grindelwald, treat himself as a pawn to use against Dumbledore.

"I know more about you than you can imagine, Credence Barbourn," Tom continued, "I know you once overcame the side effects of the Obscure with the help of Grindelwald, and I know you I used to work for him for a long time. Although Gnar has a close relationship with Nurmengard, I don't believe anyone who has anything to do with it... Even Grindelwald himself can't say that because of the so-called Clearly the 'greater good', members of Nurmengard can sacrifice themselves, I am not the kind of person with high beliefs, I am just a common man who cares about myself,"

"I'm not on the same side as them." Credence maintained the movement of spreading his hands and smiled wryly.

Tom didn't speak, just looked at him with a half smile.

"Well, I know it's not convincing," Credence shrugged resignedly, put down his hands, and said, "But I have signed an unbreakable oath with Mr. Williams, and you should understand this magic. It would be deceiving, not to mention everything you have done for Nagini, I will go through fire and water for everything."

Credence was angry, and had asked to go together when Nagini entrusted him to come, and repeatedly emphasized that Tom was a twister, but Credence patted his chest and assured that he could handle everything. Wasn't he the kind of person who was twisted to the extreme in the past, and then he was smoothed out by life? From Credence's point of view, as someone who had experienced it, a kind kid like Tom could easily be persuaded, but Tom's next sentence easily tore through his defenses.

"The Unbreakable Vow... what does it cost? Death?" Tom said, "I don't disrespect your life, but I really don't know your attitude towards it. It's not expensive."

"..."

"I didn't mean to be harsh on you, Mr. Bairburn," said Tom self-consciously. "Do you know Gnar? Everyone who knew him would say he was a gentle, friendly fellow."

Credence nodded. He had this feeling when he first communicated with Nelson face to face. Almost no one has ever treated him like Nelson. This feeling made him feel strange and cherished.

"He is indeed a very emotional person, but at the same time he is much cooler than most people in the world," Tom sighed, and continued, "He seldom gets angry, and as a person like Grindelwald who can see A future wizard, he doesn't really care about many things. Many things that can anger him seem like a fool dancing to him, but this does not mean that he doesn't care about anything. I have seen him lose the most precious thing. , if you also have such a friend, then you must not want to see this scene."

"Is this little girl important to him, too?" Credence asked. "I know she got Mr. Williams' surname...I mean, they only knew each other for a short time."

"You know Second Salem better than I do," Tom said, shaking his head, "Gnar has looked through their research records, and according to him, they are still using the methods of your era... During the holiday, we Two guys busted the sins of Second Salem, that's the second time I've seen him put on that look."

"Why? They obviously don't know each other."

"If you have lost something, you will cherish it even more when the opportunity to redeem it is in front of you," Tom sighed. "The most important person in the world passed away for some ridiculous reason. In Second Salem, he saw thousands of people who were also fooled by fate, but with our strength, he only saved more than 30 people in the end."

"I've seen a group photo of them in an American magic newspaper." Credence nodded.

"So you understand? Gnar loves Adele not because she is a sister who looks a bit like him, but because her existence represents the ending of that tragedy. Gnar transformed his powerlessness For remorse, he pinned it on Adele. He is such a contradictory person-he will randomly affect the outcome of several countries in order to end the war. It doesn't matter, but if there is a connection, he will be responsible for it."

"During the journey back to the UK by boat, Lull always said to me, if I knew what happened in Second Salem earlier and used a faster method to go to the United States earlier, would it be possible to save more people? "Tom said heavily: "Gnar doesn't want to see this single seedling suffer any further damage. I swear, Mr. Barburn, if Adele is hurt, the result after that will definitely not be what you want to see. "

Credence was shocked by Tom's words of "affecting the outcome of the war at will", his eyes widened and he was speechless for a long time.

"Actually, I just want to tell you Gnar's attitude," Tom pouted, and said, "Actually, for me, no one will trust me unless time endorses me. For me, there is more Simple reasons to reassure me."

"What?"

"Come to a duel," Tom said in a deep voice, pulling out his wand and raising it to his chest like a knight raising a sword, "I'll keep an eye on you, before that, let me try the true strength of a really powerful Silent One. "

"Haha," Credence laughed out loud. He raised his head, looked at the penetrated room above his head, and suddenly put away his smile, "Does it have to be like this?"

Tom was silent.

Credence smiled, and half of Nelson's face was immediately covered by the lingering black magic power. A perverse black smiling face slowly unfolded on his left cheek. With the combination of faces, it was even weirder and more terrifying than Credence's original face.

"Be careful, Mr. Riddle."

"I can't ask for more."

Tom stood ready, black magic power poured out from behind Credence in an orderly manner, no wizard could have such a huge amount of magic power, in Tom's view, Credence alone was enough to compete with the top three. At the final scene of the Tournament of Hegemony, the wizards synthesized by the digital second Salem were silently comparable, and suddenly there was a thought of comparison in his heart: "Since Gnar can, then I should also be able."

The black shadow bloomed like petals behind Credence, almost completely covering the wall behind him. Before the black flowers bloomed, the giant hand that had been always black rushed towards Tom from behind him like lightning.

While waving the wand, two huge black shadows with slightly different colors collided fiercely in the air.

...

"I didn't expect that there are rooms in the front, back, left, and right of this house."

Not long after, Tom and Credence appeared in the corridor of the castle like two innocent people. The attitudes of the two became inexplicably closer. Tom clapped his hands and wondered, "What kind of situation is this? structure?"

"As I said before, it's better to find a suitable place outside to demolish the castle." Credence shrugged, his breath was steady, and he didn't notice that he had just had a duel with someone, "You are from Hogwarts." Student, according to what you said, what if an urgent student stumbles upon the Room of Requirement here in the future and falls down after opening the door?"

"So he can solve it in the process of falling in the air," Tom said blankly, his ribs were aching, and at this moment he finally envied Nelson's golden bones, "What a rare toilet experience, I think the world The vast majority of people in the world don’t have that opportunity.”

"I don't think anyone would want this kind of opportunity." Credence took advantage of Tom's inattention, and put his hand behind his back and hammered it, "But it's really interesting to think about it... Speaking of which, your magic, At first glance, I thought you were an Obscure too."

"It's just a special color, oh, by the way," Tom took out a small silver ball from his pocket, checked it carefully, changed another one, and handed it to Credence, "This is what Gnar sorted out." Regarding the materials and some speculations about the Obscure, he said that they are more complete than most of the materials on the market."

"Why did you just give it to me now?" Credence took the small silver ball, feeling its heavy weight, and said, "I have already customized a plan for Adele, the first thing we need to do It is to teach her to use the magic power of the obscurant to simulate the effect of a wizard's normal magic. This is my experience in the rivers and lakes for many years. Otherwise, in the senior grades, she will definitely reveal her secrets—even if her magic power is better than any silent one I have ever heard of. Both are much more stable. The second step is to teach her to discover the strength in her body. When we can’t resist misfortune, we can only try to accept it like me. Of course, how to fight silently is the most important thing. ..."

"Actually, there are some things I forgot to tell you," Tom said suddenly after hearing Credence's words, "Do you remember those people who died in the Second Salem experiment I told you?"

"I remember, the woman who forced us to call her 'mother' like a demon," Credence nodded and clenched his fists, "They treated me that way at the beginning, and the Second Salem resident has not yet moved In front of Boston, there were only a few more 'weird kids' like me, but I was the only one who survived..."

"Before they died, they used their own will to leave a gift for Gnar and Adele each, and before Gnar killed Momoran with his own hands... I think there should be a big difference between her and you .”

"Huh?" Credence thought it was a little funny. Tom was really like a young man. After fighting with himself, he said all these important information one by one. He chuckled lightly and leaned closer ear, said, "Expand and talk?"
