Chapter 207 Nagini's Regret! Long-Awaited Language!
Chapter 207 Nagini's Regret! Long-Awaited Language!
The three professors and Sirius didn't chat for long. After putting away the tracking thread, they used the tracking spell again and quickened their pace to catch up with Nagini.
In the air, Dudley unleashed his golden thief-like speed, constantly closing in on Nagini's location.
Before long, he saw dark clouds rolling in front of him, carrying with them a dense mass of human-like figures.
That dark cloud was clearly not naturally formed; it was filled with an evil aura and a sinister, chilling magic.
As they got closer, Dali noticed that the dark cloud and the figure inside seemed to be controlled by someone, occasionally unleashing a fierce soul attack down into the dense forest below.
Yes, a soul attack!
Dudley recognized them; they weren't human figures, but ghostly figures!
Unlike the silvery-white ghosts he had seen before, these shadowy figures were pitch black, with ferocious faces. Under the moonlight, they appeared extremely cruel and terrifying, devoid of any intelligence, purely tools of killing.
The ghostly figures split into several groups, taking turns attacking a large green snake in the dense forest below, accompanied by magical rays released from the dark clouds.
The snake was none other than Nagini, whom Dali and the others were trying to capture.
Dudley recognized the snake the moment he saw it from afar.
Not only because Dudley's tracking spell was directed at the snake, but also because...
【Ding--】
[Nice to meet you! Unlock Nagini's regrettable events for the current time period!]
The Poisonous Effects of the Blood Curse (Rank B)
[Details of the unfortunate incident: Nagini was not a snake, but a blood cursed orc who inherited the blood curse.]
The Blood Curse is an extremely malevolent bloodline curse. Those afflicted by this curse can initially switch between human and snake forms, appearing similar to wizards who have practiced Animagus magic.
However, each time they transform into snake form, the Blood Curse Orc moves one step closer to becoming a beast.
Ultimately, the Blood Curse Orc will completely transform into a giant serpent, never to return to human form. Furthermore, once fully transformed into a serpent, the Blood Curse Orc will completely forget its former human memories, becoming a ferocious serpent that acts solely on animal instincts.
Nagini's current state represents the final stage of the Blood Curse Orcs; he has completely degenerated into a ferocious serpent devoid of human memories.
[The Unrequited Love Between a Blood Cursed Orc and an Adult Obscurial (Rank A)]
[Details of the regrettable incident: In his youth, before Nagini fully transformed into a snake, he had a relationship with Credence Byrben (whose real family name is Aurelius Dumbledore), the nephew of Albus Dumbledore and son of Aberforth Dumbledore.]
Credence is an extremely rare adult Obscurial with incredibly powerful magical attack abilities; he once shattered a mountain with a single blow.
In its silent state, its destructive power is even more astonishing.
However, he was separated from his family at a young age and raised by an extremely biased and mean-spirited foster mother. Later, he was repeatedly deceived and instigated by the first Dark Lord, Gellert Grindelwald, and became Grindelwald's weapon against Dumbledore.
Before Nagini was fully transformed into a snake, she was a kind and beautiful Asian woman.
After meeting Credence, she was able to deeply empathize with her childhood, which was tormented by the Obscurus and was tragic, because her blood curse and her tragic experience of being trafficked to a magic circus were extremely similar to Credence's.
The two got to know each other and their relationship had developed to the point of being more than friends but less than lovers, but then an unexpected change occurred.
Credence was once again tricked by Grindelwald and joined his ranks.
Kind-hearted Nagini's attempts to stop them were unsuccessful, and the two parted ways.
Later, Newt Scamander and his band of friends helped Dumbledore defeat Grindelwald and rescue Credence.
Credence later reconciled with his father, Aberforth, and they lived together.
However, Credence's body had been weakened by the Obscurus, and he died a few years later.
Nagini had visited Hogwarts with Newt Scamander and others, but ultimately did not rekindle her relationship with Credence.
Years later, Nagini completely transformed into a giant serpent, forgetting her past and hiding in the forest.
Until recently, Voldemort discovered it and manipulated it using Parseltongue, performing a murder ritual and turning it into a unique living Horcrux.
"What a moving love story! Unfortunately, now is not the time to relive it!"
Dali listened silently to a short system notification in his mind, then temporarily put it out of his mind.
He still remembered the original storyline involving Nagini and Credence, and knew how to resolve it without needing any system reminders.
Once he obtains the conceptually enhanced version of the Restoration Charm, everything will be resolved.
But now is not the time to solve the problem easily, but the time to face the blade of the soul.
The ghostly cloud that appeared out of nowhere not far ahead has spotted Dali.
While attacking the giant snake Nagini that was dodging and fleeing below, he also didn't forget to gather a large wave of soul blades to teach Dali a lesson.
Dudley hadn't taken these Soul Blades too seriously, and by activating the Golden Snitch's extreme speed, he dodged their attack path.
But who knew that these Soul Blades also had an automatic target acquisition function, and they would cut down Dudley even if it meant going around in circles.
"You're asking for death!" Dali shouted in English, then dodged the attacks of the soul blades again, pointed his finger at the large mass of ghostly shadows in front of him, and angrily chanted a spell:
"Take the God's Protection!"
In an instant, a silvery-white protective energy, like the waves of a great river, bloomed at Dali's fingertips. Instead of extinguishing the soul blades, it directly attacked the ghostly cloud.
"court death!"
The same meaning, but pronounced in different languages.
A clear and resonant male voice in Mandarin suddenly emanated from the ghostly cloud, causing Dali, who was initially somewhat angry, to momentarily lose his senses.
How many years has it been?! How many years has it been since he heard such warm and familiar language?
Although the person who said this was not friendly.
But in a foreign land in a different world and time, I suddenly heard a language from the depths of my memory.
The overwhelming sense of vicissitude, as if from another world, was so powerful that even Dudley, with his iron will, could not remain unmoved.
But this is a battlefield, and along with Dudley's emotions came an extremely fierce counterattack.
Suddenly, the ghostly cloud surged violently, its many ghostly figures forming bones and its cloud energy forming flesh, instantly condensing into a gigantic half-demon king.
Although the ghost king only had an upper body, the area below his waist was filled with dark clouds.
But the blue-faced, fanged creature, with its ferocious aura, extended a huge ghostly claw and easily blocked the silvery-white protective energy that Dudley had just released, which swept like a giant wave.
Almost simultaneously, the Soul Blades that had been there earlier were also brought close to Dudley's side due to his momentary lapse in concentration.
There's no escaping it.
