Chapter 146: A world inside the suitcase
"Do you like your new home, Voldemort?" Cyrus asked softly.
"Do you think you trapped me?" The black fog made a sharp sound, and before Cyrus could answer, the thing penetrated the glass and floated out like some invisible thing.
"Just wait, Cyrus, I'll be back! Soon!"
"You will be back? Do you think you are Arnold from Terminator or something?"
Voldemort still escaped.
Although his current state looks like black fog, it is actually more like a soul, which cannot be blocked by physical means alone.
Cyrus patted the fire dragon's back.
"Are you going to follow me, or stay?"
Although there is already a fire dragon with him, the more magical animals there are, the better.
Especially in the case of fire dragons, which are full of treasures.
Not to mention that the fire dragon in front of him is just old, even if it is dead, it is priceless.
When the fire dragon heard Cyrus's question, it immediately wailed and took the initiative to open its blood-stained flesh wings - they were scarred and the wing membranes were even damaged.
But it still longed to fly.
"Don't expect too much, it's just a change of cage." Cyrus reminded.
But where is not a cage?
The fire dragon lowered its head covered with bone spurs and lowered its body to let Cyrus climb up. Cyrus once again rode on the dragon's back. The scales on its back were as hard and cold as steel.
The dragon spread its jagged bony wings and rushed out of Gringotts with its head raised to the sky!
Kingsley, who was guarding the entrance of Gringotts, was very conspicuous. The Aurors were holding wands, ready to take action at any time.
The dragon immediately spit out flames at them!
The flames were not only scorching but also explosive.
Like a gasoline barrel that was ignited all of a sudden, the impact of the explosion instantly blew Kingsley and several others away, and also blew a hole in the cave above Cyrus' head.
Cyrus also picked up the wand:
"Defodio!"
Several spells were cast, and the ground was directly penetrated!
The sun's rays sprinkled from the gap, and the dragon flew along the solidified light, as if flying to heaven.
Cyrus looked down and saw Kingsley crawling out of the rubble in a panic.
Scrimgeour had not expected such a big commotion, and rushed in with the Aurors who were guarding outside Gringotts.
They all held flying brooms in their hands, and seemed to want to compete with the dragon in speed.
But Cyrus directly hit them with a disarming spell, and the spreading magic power knocked all the brooms in their hands away. The dragon raised its head and spit, burning them all into charcoal.
"Your hospitality was very enthusiastic, Aurors, but you guys don't need to send me off," Cyrus said briskly.
"If you are eager to make a contribution, there is another criminal in the cave."
After leaving Gringotts, Cyrus kept the two dragons in a hidden valley. He cast many protective spells to avoid being discovered. Of course, there is a Muggle-repelling spell, as well as a safe guard.
After that, he returned to the Broken Axe and took his box, which he was now modifying.
Although the suitcase he bought was also cast with the Untraceable Extension Charm, the space inside was only the size of a wardrobe, which could not meet Cyrus's needs at all.
He first expanded the space inside the suitcase - this was the simplest step - and then he had to create various terrains.
He believed that there would be many different magical animals in it in the future.
And he might not have time to raise them, so it would be better if he could establish an ecosystem by himself.
Now he only had two dragons, which was much simpler. He only needed to stuff some cattle and sheep into it to meet the dragon's food needs. In this way, he needed grass first.
This was not too difficult.
He only needed to bring some back from the real world, and then he could use the Copy Charm to copy the area of grass in large quantities. Or he could directly cast the Untraceable Extension Charm on the grass. As for cattle and sheep, these were even easier to arrange.
Cyrus found several farmers in the Muggle world and bought a large number of cattle and sheep from them.
The only difficulty was the climate in the box, day and night, sunny and cloudy.
In this regard, he borrowed the magic on the top of the Hogwarts Great Hall, which could simulate the sky outside.
However, there will be no wind and no rainfall, but at least the problem of day and night has been solved.
As for the clouds and rain, Cyrus has no good solution for the time being. He may need to cast a cloud spell to bring rain in the short term.
The suitcase that was expanded for the first time is already very large. Cyrus left enough space for the herds of cattle and sheep to move around, and also for the two fire dragons to have space to fly freely.
The two fire dragons hardly fought after they met.
After all, they were both raised by goblins, and they were not wild and difficult to tame.
In addition, the old dragon in Gringotts took the initiative to become friends with the young one, so the relationship between them was actually quite harmonious.
After putting them all in the suitcase, Cyrus changed Nagini, who he had been wearing as a bracelet, back to the appearance of a snake, so that she could also live in the suitcase. Otherwise, it would be too miserable for her to be a bracelet all the time.
"But the suitcase is still a bit inconvenient."
Cyrus thought about it and decided to turn the suitcase into a ring.
He put all his belongings in it, including two magical animals and a snake, two Horcruxes, a resurrection stone (the resurrection stone is not a Horcrux, the Gaunt family ring is a Horcrux), and a time turner.
He did not plan to destroy the Horcrux for the time being. This kind of thing can always come in handy in the future.
'If it doesn't work, it would be great to use it to make a deal with Dumbledore.'
What bothered Cyrus next was how to get back to Hogwarts.
"After going around in circles, I still have to go back." He sighed.
Hogwarts has Dumbledore. This school is the safest place for others, but for Cyrus, the biggest danger is inside that place.
But now, he is not as afraid of Dumbledore as before.
After mastering the transformation of Imagomagus, his magic level has improved a lot. The powerful ancient lightning magic and superb transformation gave Cyrus confidence.
But before going to Hogwarts, Cyrus wanted to go to another place to look for another clue of ancient magic.....
Godric's Hollow.
This is the birthplace of Godric Gryffindor.
This wizard village doesn't look any more prosperous than in the movies. And surprisingly, there are also several Dementors patrolling here.
It's getting late now, the cold wind blows on the empty streets, and the gray sky looks very gloomy.
Halloween is coming in a few days, but it's very depressing here. It doesn't look like they are preparing for the festival.
There was only one dark figure walking in the empty square.
He was wrapped in a black robe, with sunken cheeks, and looked more like a ghost than a Dementor.
He raised his head and looked at the statue in the center of the square, revealing disgust and nostalgia, pain and love -
it was Snape.
He had not been here for many years, and the last time was after the Dark Lord killed Lily.
Godric's Hollow is a gathering place for half-wizards.
Only half of the people living here are wizards, and the other half are Muggles.
For this reason, the sculpture commemorating the Potter family cannot be so conspicuous.
In fact, the center of the square is not a statue from a distance, but a war monument. It is engraved with everyone who died in those years fighting against the Death Eaters.
Muggles can only see the monument, but when wizards approach, they can see an exquisite sculpture of three people.
A man with messy hair and glasses, a woman with long hair and a beautiful appearance, and a baby boy.
Of course, for Snape, there is only one person in his eyes. Lily Evans...
