Chapter 138 The Gift From Fate Has Long Been Priced

Tom looked at the old man suspiciously, with sharp eyes.

But unfortunately, his Legilimency did not see anything, and his eyes directly penetrated the air.

The old man was standing there, but it seemed that he wasn't there at all.

If he closed his eyes, Tom would probably think that he was the only one lying in the huge library reading room.

It was the first time he had encountered such a strange feeling.

Even when facing Dumbledore directly, he couldn't make him have this kind of abyss-like illusion.

At this moment of contact, Tom can be sure that this wizard dressed in strange clothes is very powerful.

But...is he really Salazar Slytherin - his own ancestor - the Big Four who lived a thousand years ago?

Tom is suspicious.

That's not to say he doesn't believe Slytherin is alive to this day.

Tom believes in immortality more than anyone.

Otherwise, why would he have to go to great lengths to make Horcruxes?

Nicole Lemay also lived for more than six hundred years, and Slytherin lived for a thousand years, in Tom's view, it is not surprising at all.

but……

Whether this person is in front of you is worth thinking about.

After all, Tom also claimed to be the god of death when he first approached Targaryen.

His tone was terrifyingly loud, boasting that he had wandered alone for countless years...

what! !

I can no longer recall it. When I think that Stark knew the inside story long ago, and said those words, a sense of shame arises spontaneously.

Every time he recalled it, Tom felt like a public execution!

In any case, he has done this kind of thing, and he is naturally skeptical about the old man's words.

Tom hopes that the old man in front of him is Slytherin?

Of course not.

Yes, he does worship Slytherin.

But this kind of ancestor is only suitable for living in a shrine, being enshrined high, and being admired by future generations.

Instead of living until now, he suddenly appeared in front of him and told him:

"Cubs, I am your ancestor!!"

It wasn't a surprise, it was a shock.

Then again, what does it matter if the person in front of him is real or fake?

Didn't Stark also pretend to be fooled and follow the trail to find the Slytherin wand and the prehistoric mystery?

When his vigilance was at its weakest, he gave a fatal blow!

Although Tom hated Stark, he also learned one thing from him:

Pretend to be cheated, as long as you can make money... Anyway, it's a bastard if you don't take advantage of it.

Therefore, Tom quickly accepted that he had one more ancestor.

The person in front of him is Slytherin! Must be too!

At this moment, the room suddenly darkened.

Tom turned his head to look,

It turned out that the obelisk in the distance was completely dim, and there was no more splendor just now.

"Stark got that power?" His tone was filled with incomparable loss.

Coming to America four years ago, how high was Tom, how high was Tom when he got the Slytherin wand earlier?

Seeing him rise from a tall building, seeing his building collapse... It's me who is talking about!

The old man narrowed his eyes, and he was a little surprised that his mood had not fluctuated for many years.

It wasn't that William took the prehistoric mystery, but it was he... who didn't take it.

Tom's struggle failed, and this force had already fallen into William's hands. How could he hold back?

It's like Tom chased a peerless beauty for four years, and was robbed by William just before he succeeded.

William took off each other's clothes, so that the graceful ketone body was exposed in front of him... He actually held back, can he not be moved?

For the first time, things were beyond the old man's expectations.

He snorted and said coldly in his heart: "No wonder Ravenclaw chose William Stark."

But it doesn't matter, the old man chose the young man in front of him.

No matter how the situation changes, it will not affect his final plan.

The old man calmly took a book from the bookshelf. After he opened it, he lowered his head and sniffed hard. A mocking smile appeared on the old face.

"Don't worry, Tom. William didn't take that power, it was reserved for my heir, he couldn't take it!

Even if he takes the obelisk, I can teach you myself. "

Tom didn't answer, but raised his head and asked curiously, "Are these Muggle religious books so interesting?"

During this time, he saw that the old man had taken a lot of books.

The old man didn't answer, but flipped through the book in his hand and told a story he didn't want to do:

"In those days, the prophet Moses led the Hebrew nation and migrated from Egypt to the promised land of God, the land of Canaan.

When passing through the Red Sea, he divided the Red Sea to reveal a passage, and the water made walls on both sides.

The Hebrews were able to cross the sea.

When the Egyptian soldiers chased into the Red Sea, he made the waters close and drowned the pursuers.

Tom, do you think you can do this with your magic? "

Tom shook his head.

Not to mention him, even Dumbledore and Voldemort at his peak could not separate the Red Sea in an instant.

That's the sea, not a ditch like the Thames!

"Moses was adopted by the daughter of Pharaoh Ramses II, so he could enter the Egyptian Mystery School and study the mysteries of prehistory."

The old man raised the Bible in his hand and said:

"Moses also left behind the Five Books of Moses, the original five classics of the Old Testament."

"You mean that Moses wrote the prehistoric mysteries in the Bible?" Tom asked in amazement. "I thought it had to be Muggle fiction."

"Some miracles in religious books are indeed fictitious and exaggerated by later generations, but some are real.

so……"

The old man smiled and said in an aria-like voice:

"Reading the Bible day and night,

You refer to black letters,

I read blank paper.

Nothing more than that. "

Tom showed greedy eyes, and he asked cautiously, "Are there any other books besides the Bible?"

The old man made no secret and smiled:

"Prehistoric mysteries are scattered all over the world, in the Christian Bible, in the Muslin's Koran, in the Jewish Torah, in the Hindu Vedas, in the Taoist "Morality" In the scriptures..."

Tom kept all these titles in his heart, ready to go back and read them.

The old man seemed to see through what he was thinking, and said softly:

"That's right, the prehistoric mysteries are hidden in these old papers.

These books, which have existed for thousands of years, are the most widely circulated and most published existences.

But Tom, do you know why everyone has access to these books, but so few people have access to prehistoric mysteries? "

Tom shook his head.

The old man said meaningfully:

"The original content of these books has been tampered with a lot. Future generations continue to add and modify the content to serve themselves, whether it is true or false.

Of course, even if they have the original manuscript, only a few people can comprehend the true meaning of it.

Only those who are worthy can obtain prehistoric meaning.

Are you worthy, Tom? "

Tom was suddenly awe-inspiring. When he looked at the old man again, the old man was wearing strange decorations from all religions... Finally, it was no longer nondescript.

Instead, it seemed unfathomable.

Like an abyss!

Tom bowed his head and asked humbly:

"My great ancestor - the king of snake kings - the most powerful being among the four giants - the eternal master of the snake house - the witch of eternal life - can you teach me?"

The old man seemed amused by Tom's string of names, and laughed:

"Of course, child, I came here across time just to wait for you.

You are the one I chose.

But are you ready? "

"What do you need me for?" Tom lowered his eyelids and became more humble.

"It's very simple, help me get one thing from the god of death."

"You want me to find Death?" Tom was stunned.

"Don't you ever think about going to the god of death?" The old man said with a half-smiling smile:

"Especially after knowing the story of the Three Brothers and the Deathly Hallows."

"Yes, I did think about it." Tom made no secret: "But to find the god of death, you need three people to walk together.

They may be related by blood or as brothers. But I'm just alone now, and the conditions are not met. "

"You can go on the road with a Horcrux, a split soul is also eligible." The old man said lightly.

Tom shook his head: "I was originally a Horcrux resurrection.

The size of my soul now is only enough for me to make another Horcrux, otherwise my soul will collapse.

It's only two people.

Of course, I originally found a Horcrux, your ring, but it was stolen by Stark. "

Tom's meaning was very clear, and he hoped that the old man would help to snatch it back.

In fact, Tom had originally planned to take that piece of soul to find Death.

Wormtail also stole a tube of Harry's blood from Tom during Voldemort's resurrection that year.

Tom is even going to use this tube of blood to resurrect that piece of soul.

But the plan was sabotaged by Stark.

The old man didn't seem to understand what he meant, and he calmly said:

"Tom, there's a soul left behind.

That year in the secret room, after your resurrection, you wanted to kill the young man, but the prehistoric meaning in him bounced back, splitting a very small soul.

That piece of soul was attached to the boy. "

"Harry Potter?!"

"Yes, find him." The old man looked out the window and said, "I will teach you the profound meaning of prehistory and give you the power of the obelisk.

I will also guide you and your two lovely companions on the path to find death.

I only want you, and after asking for two Deathly Hallows, I want a third one for me. "

Tom's eyes flashed with joy, and he quickly assured: "Of course, I will definitely do it!"

The old man did not speak, such a promise meant nothing to him.

He looked at the obelisk. At this time, the east was white with fish belly, and the sun was shining on it.

The old man thought to himself:

"All the gifts from fate have already had their prices secretly marked.

Are you ready, Tom? "
