Manchuck swamp, located near New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. This wetland, which is mostly soaked in stagnant water and rotten mud, has a name widely spread in the Muggle world - "ghost swamp".
Since ancient times, many people have been buried in this strange swamp. Whether Muggles or wizards, there have been many unfortunate victims.
To this end, the U.S. Department of magic has already sent Auror to cast a spell to drive away Muggles.
After all, wizards usually stay away when they know there is an inexplicable danger. But Muggles are always like a curious cat, knowing where there is danger, but they just want to go.
Of course, sometimes don't always take what wizards say seriously. Because they often talk, and when they look back, they run to find out!
Just like recently, there is an old wizard on the edge of this ghost swamp. Maybe he's old and has nothing to do, or maybe he gives full play to the waste heat... In short, he's obviously such an "old adventurer" who wants to go in and feel the mystery.
Just because the heart knew that it was abnormal and could not be judged by common sense, he just entrenched in the periphery and didn't dare to get involved easily for a long time.
These days, it is the period of miasma in the swamp. When you look in from the outside, you can see a vast expanse of green, and you can hardly see far away.
"... the time to start has passed for several days. Is there something wrong with the plan?"
The old wizard stood on the edge of the swamp, looking straight at the miasma in front of him. His deep and sharp eyes almost wanted to penetrate it and go straight to the center of the swamp.
The old wizard is not an "old adventurer", but Mr. Garrett greenward, the first generation of Dark Lord who turned the whole European magic world upside down.
But now he is not a strong man. After losing to his old friend and opponent Dumbledore, his magic was completely imprisoned by Dumbledore. Even he was imprisoned in newmond wizard prison for more than 50 years.
Now, although he left the prison tower, the spell that imprisoned him was automatically lifted. But the magic could not flow for a long time, and had already lost most of its activity. Even if it could be used, there was only the ability to burn a fire and make a meal. This is because he has strong talent and abundant magic. If someone else, he is now a squib that can't use any magic.
But his powerful magic didn't work, but his brain wasn't bad. As a rare hero in the world, his shrewd mind may be much more terrible than magic.
Look at Maka, who has a powerful strength among thousands, and his brain is not slow, but he still knows his way unknowingly. The depth of his wisdom can be seen from this.
This time, his purpose is actually very simple.
The long prison life made him understand a lot of things and some of his past mistakes. However, he was not repenting for the killing and ambition in previous years. He just felt that everything he had done in the past was superfluous and ridiculous.
He and Dumbledore, once close friends, may be similar in some ways, because they both have firm faith in pursuit. But between them, there are more diametrically opposed ideas.
When he lost, he also reflected after his failure, and even had the idea of moving closer to Dumbledore because of his admiration for Dumbledore.
But greenward is always greenward. Even if he turns those desires into a desire for a personal magic path, he still walks on his own path.
A long time ago, greenward got the broken notes of the despicable halbo and read some information about the swamp. When he knew that he might soon catch up with Dumbledore with the help of the ancient mirror, he chose to leave newmond and go on the journey of pursuing Dumbledore without hesitation.
However, no matter how careful the plan is, it will change due to the actual situation. This is the irrefutable truth of the world. The scene originally expected did not seem to arrive on time.
Just as greenward bent slightly and had some doubts in his heart, a change that he had been looking forward to happened - in the depths of the miasma filled swamp, there was a sudden slight vibration, which immediately reached the ground on which he stepped.
The vibration wave after wave, separated by more than ten seconds each time.
"Started... Finally started..."
Even in greenward's current state of mind, I can't help feeling happy at the moment. On his placid heart lake, there were waves with the tremors again and again, and there was a tendency to become more and more intense.
In fact, if Maka were here, she might be able to sense a wonder - the surrounding magic surged in like a tsunami in a strong vibration, and there were more than one gathering place.
In the vast swamp in front of greenward, a total of six places are swallowing and sucking a lot of magic. What is more surprising is that something invisible to the naked eye suddenly sprang out of the swamp, mixed with the wave of magic, and swam inward quickly.
Those little things are like wisps of small black smoke, but they are like tadpoles dragging their tails. Yes, they are more like some unknown living creature than smoke.
At ordinary times, most of them lurk in the swamp and eat people, but the change at the moment seems to attract them, and large areas gather in the depths of the swamp.
Greenward did not have the ability to sense these strange scenes, but he always stopped in place without showing any impatience. Haier Bo's notes are very clear. At this time, we must wait patiently. It's not time to go in and harvest results.
At this moment, there was a faint "click" sound from the depths of the swamp. If the sound seemed to be fleeting, it would not be noticed if you didn't pay close attention.
But as the inconspicuous noise suddenly rang, greenward immediately felt that the vibration under his feet had become greater! The amazing tremor no longer appeared in bursts, but continued to shake. Greenward quickly held a big tree around him so that he wouldn't fall to the ground at once.
But the shock came and went quickly. In the twinkling of an eye, six light spots sprang up in the swamp. They reflected the sunlight in the sky and turned into six arcs to gather in the middle of the swamp.
If you were closer, you might be able to see that it was six pieces of mirror as clean as new. Look at the posture of flying together, it seems to be one.
It was almost the moment when the fragments of the ancient mirror were combined with each other. The "little tadpoles" gathered in the depths of the swamp had all merged into the fog like mirror as if they had found their mother.
The earthquake stopped, and the ancient magic mirror successfully broke away from the seal, which was enough to create the source of the disaster of monstrous disasters and reappear in the world.
Greenward on the edge of the swamp calmly waited in place, but he didn't know when he had a silver gray necklace, and the black gem inlaid on it was full of a calm breath.
Before long, an invisible and obscure wave suddenly spread from the center of the swamp, but in an instant it swept over the whole swamp and spread further away.
Needless to say, greenward is also caught in the scope of fluctuation.
However, before the strange shock and contraction occurred, he hung the necklace around his neck. Suddenly, the black GEM PENDANT hanging on his chest immediately diffused a circle of dark gray gas, enveloping his whole person.
"Bang!"
The soul shock caused by the mysterious ancient mirror finally began to become powerful, and several villages near here in the distance were within its scope. For a time, nearly a hundred translucent souls were shocked out of people's bodies, and were forced to fly towards the middle of the swamp under the suction force only for souls.
Of course, they can't hear the sound like a war drum. All they can hear is greenward at this moment.
The necklace he got from nowhere withstood the shock, protected his soul and saved him from the disaster.
But faintly, the ash around his body was also a little less.
I'm afraid this necklace can't withstand too many shocks. In order to successfully control the magical ancient magic mirror, he must get to the center of the swamp as soon as possible.
Greenward did this, of course, not to take it to Dumbledore's body. He was never so hypocritical. That plan was just the last icing on the cake. What he wanted was to be the master of the ancient mirror and firmly hold the channel in his own hands!
Never coming back is not his greenward style.
……
Deep in the mountains of Albania, in the underground palace stone chamber.
Maka stood aside and looked at the broken mirror of Eris's magic mirror with a thoughtful expression on her face. His left hand was gently holding Helen, who had fainted, and put her on the spread blanket.
Just now, he took out Eris's magic mirror and handed over the rest to Helen. Although she was still hesitant at the beginning, she soon seemed to think of something and suddenly made up her mind.
I don't know what greenward told her. Maka only knew that when Helen stood in front of the mirror, it wasn't long before the power in her body began to boil. In the mirror, a clearly visible black fog is shrinking, vibrating and shrinking
Finally, the black fog in the mirror seemed to explode, suddenly expanded and completely shattered the mirror!
