Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

Chapter 173 Tom, go and be the savior

Harry?

Harry seems to be the easiest option. After all, Harry also got the Philosopher's Stone in the original book. But if the Philosopher's Stone as a whole is just a trial, Harry will have completed the trial the moment he got the Philosopher's Stone. , if he wants to get the Sorcerer's Stone from Harry, he may need to face Dumbledore directly.

Moreover, Harry is also a character who will be watched by Dumbledore throughout the whole process. Once he realizes that he wants to intervene, Dumbledore may directly intervene.

Unless, all Dumbledore's arrangements were really just to protect the Philosopher's Stone, and did not do more monitoring and intervention on Harry and the entire process, then that was still possible.

But if that's the case, it wouldn't be a big problem for him to get it directly, and there would be no need for an agent at all.

Let’s consider the worst-case scenario.

Harry could only give up temporarily.

Quirrell is directly controlled by Voldemort and cannot move.

Snape and other professors are not easy to deal with, so they still have to choose from students...

Neville?

too stupid.

Ron?

too weak.

Hermione?

Maybe you can consider...

I was thinking about it, and suddenly, an idea jumped into my mind.

There's a guy here who might be able to take advantage of it.

"Diary, no, Tom. Long time no see."

…

In the secret room, Murphy took out the diary that had been dusted for a long time.

Today, through research on various types of psychic magic, Murphy has roughly understood the principle of the diary.

In addition to being a Horcrux that hosts a piece of Tom Riddle's soul, it can also take away the other person's magic and life by establishing a psychological link with the holder. At that time, the diary will be as if it is lodged in the holder. The magical parasite on the body can perceive the world through the holder's perception, and even search the holder's memory and use it for its own purposes.

This is the resurrection card that Voldemort left for himself.

However, just as Legilimency is blocked by Occlumency, this psychic link must be based on the other party's trust in the diary.

If the other party does not trust the diary, his or her mind will be blocked by Occlumency, and the diary will be powerless.

Murphy's trust in the diary is always zero, so in fact no matter how many words he writes in the diary to deceive Tom, he will not be controlled by Tom, and Tom will not be able to perceive the outside world through him.

In fact, when Tom believed his lies, he might even control the other person through this relationship.

After all, communication is relative, and who says you can’t defraud a liar?

At this moment, Murphy opened the diary.

He changed his handwriting to a cheerful one and wrote on it: "On July 31, 2089, General Angel Bolton handed this notebook to me. He told me that it was a thoughtful notebook and not to be believed easily. Its words.”

Diary: "Hello, I'm Tom Riddle, nice to meet you, what's your name?"

"You are indeed thoughtful, but I won't tell you my name. I am just a recorder. General Bolton asked me to record our battle. He said that only this immortal diary can remember these forever. matter."

Diary: "...Okay. Who is General Bolton?"

"He is the previous holder of the diary. He is a great man. It is said that he was once an orphan and later escaped from Night City to avoid being killed by the witch hunt. He also helped us escape from Arasaka Pursued by the syndicate, he is the savior of wizards.”

So after that guy learned a bunch of spells from me, he ignored me for ten years? !

The diary has an aggrieved feeling of being used for free.

Soulless! He must have guessed that I can gain strength through communication with him!

He even warned the new guy! Let him also have sex for nothing!

What a bastard!

Diary was too angry to speak.

But the writer didn't seem to care, and would update a diary from time to time.

"December 2, 2089. We found another group of survivors. They hid themselves more than a thousand meters underground through the shrinking spell and the traceless expansion spell. But the Arasaka Group's magic monitoring network is still After discovering them, General Bolton led us to launch a rescue, and eventually we rescued twelve people, all children. Thirty-seven adult wizards among them all died after being cut off."

"Total known survivors: 127."

"February 12, 2090. We found mechanical worker bees near the camp, and we began to migrate."

"On March 5, 2090, we encountered an intelligent chariot. Five wizards died in the battle."

"Total number of survivors: 122."

"April 1, 2090. The spy satellite is equipped with a magic monitoring network. A Muggle sympathizer told us that the satellite's surveillance range covers more than 97% of the world. From now on, any spellcasting outdoors will cause A direct strike from 'Skyfire'."

"Our wands are blocked."

"On May 11, 2090, three drones discovered us. They summoned the fleet and the camp was bombed."

"13 dead. Total survivors: 109."

"On May 13, 2090, the intelligent network predicted the location of our Apparition. What awaits us is an ocean of intelligent machines..."

"27 dead. Total survivors: 82."

"2090, May 14, escape."

"16 people died."

"2090, May 17, escape. 11 people died."

"2090, May 19, 18 people died."

"2090, May 20, 9 people died. We got rid of the intelligent fleet. Total number of survivors: 28."

It's too awful……

It's so miserable...

The diary no longer knows what to say.

The wizards in this world live more humblely than the rats in the sewers.

They were obviously a group of exiles, but they were being hunted all the way, and they couldn't even mount a decent fight back.

Is this the future?

Is this future caused by me?

Even though he didn't feel guilty, he still felt tremendous pressure. In such a world, what's the use of me being resurrected?

"On May 23, 2090, General Bolton talked to me. He said that if he and two other adult wizards died, I would be the eldest among the remaining children, and I would be responsible for taking them to continue their escape. .”

"But where to escape?"

"There is no place for us in this world."

"General Bolton said, go north, there is a way for us to survive."

"On June 3, 2090, we started heading north, and our destination was the Scottish Highlands."

"Each of us took the lycanthropy potion. It was left by a great prophet."

"We turned into wolves and evaded spy satellites."

"On August 19, 2090, we arrived in the Scottish Highlands. But the intelligence was leaked, and a vast mechanical army was waiting for us, including even mechanical wizards who could cast spells..."

"We resist...but we are constantly being annihilated..."

"General Bolton gave me a magic item, which was a broken time turner. He told me that this was the last hope. He asked me to take the diary to the ruins of Hogwarts Castle in the Scottish Highlands, where, I can reverse time and reawaken the Wizard King..."

"Everyone is sacrificing, but I am still surviving..."

"I came to a dilapidated mansion, but I was still far away from the castle... In front of me, there were endless mechanical troops... I couldn't walk through..."

"This is my final end, the wizard's end."

"Tom. Are you watching?"

"I write these words in desperation."

"Because after I die, you will be the last wizard in this world."

"Tom."

"I know you are not a good person... you will become a demon king in the future who will eventually destroy our world..."

"But, I have no choice..."

"I can only rely on you..."

"If you were also a wizard..."

"Tom, save us..."

"I will open my heart to you."

"I sacrificed my life and gave everything just to resurrect you."
