Chapter 296: He Will Come Today (2 in 1)

A bronze door, in such a labyrinth covered with ice everywhere, of course, is quite conspicuous.

At such a distance, Jon could see that there was a tiny gap in the middle of the bronze door that seemed to be fused into a whole. New novel chapters are published on

This proves that this is a door that can be opened, and not some whole piece of bronze plate that is embedded in the ice.

But even if this is a door, he found no sign of a handle or lock hole.

When Voldemort came to this place, he must have done something or taken something behind the door, and if Jon wanted to find out something, he also had to enter the door.

But how to open and enter this door is a problem.

Jon leaned against the ice, crouched in the corner, observing the situation around the bronze door, trying to find whether or not there was a chance to sneak in with a cloak of invisibility.

But soon, he saw something like an eye suspended in an unobtrusive corner right above that door!

To be more precise, it is an eye.

Jon had seen such a magical artificial eye before; once an elite British Ministry of Magic Auror, now one of the pillars of the Order of the Phoenix under Dumbledore - Alastor Moody, one of his original eye that was damaged was replaced with an artificial eye.

And Moody's artificial eye has a very powerful ability to see through the disillusionment charm and invisibility cloak!

And now the eye that is suspended above the bronze door is likely to have this ability as well.

These Death Eaters had already prepared for the possibility of Jon sneaking in using the invisibility cloak, and they had made sure that the area that needed the most attention was well secured.

Jon's current location was just outside the observation range of that eye, so he was able to remain undetected, but as long as he moved about three meters closer to the direction of the bronze door, that eye is bound to be able to spot him.

This made Jon's heart sink to the bottom, he frowned at the magic artificial eye, and in a short time, his heart contemplated many different approaches.

The second gem on the ring can absorb the magic power of magic items, but the prerequisite for this ability to function is that the gem itself cannot be too far away from the object that is meant to be absorbed.

And he simply had no way to get closer to the eye, and he did not know for the time being how the Death Eaters actually manipulated that eye, so if he absorbed the magic in it, making the artificial eye into a waste eye, how long it would take for the Death Eaters to react is also a matter of uncertainty.

So Jon could only veto the option of directly destroying the artificial eye itself.

Since he couldn't destroy the eye, he had to start with himself.

However, it is even more of a fantasy, he is wearing the cloak of invisibility that can be described as the highest level of magic artefacts in the entire magical world, one of the Three Deathly Hallows, and there is no other thing that can be more advanced than it at present at all.

But even so, the artificial eye can still see through the stealth of the cloak of invisibility, and Jon now also doesn't have a strong enough stealth ability that can surpass the ability bestowed by one of the three hallows created by the Death itself.

There is no possible way to deal with the artificial eye, nor can he use his own strength, so the only solution left for him is the simplest and most direct one.

Jon's eyes unblinkingly stared at the bronze door.

Forcefully break in!

At the risk of being discovered, try to open the door just once before being taken away by Fawkes!

No matter what the result, he had to summon Fawkes to take himself, Nick and Gabrielle later on.

First of all, not to mention whether he could be able to open that door or not, even if he succeeded in opening it, it is difficult to enter the door and protect himself in such a cramped place jammed with such a large number of Death Eaters who would also try their best to enter the door and surround them.

Unless the area behind the door should be vast, similar to the labyrinth they are now in.

Jon did not dare to have such a fantasy, when Grindelwald asked him to come to the North Pole, he did not say exactly what he needed to do and also gave him the right to choose.

Now he has been able to reach this place, has already put all his efforts into finding the location of a gem, and also found a book on Adrien's map, it is considered a good harvest.

The male wizard, whose complexion was always pale and whose gaze was hollow, brought the pureblood students from first to seventh year beside Voldemort and then retired to the back with a respectful bow.

Hogwarts Castle, which uses the theory of pureblood supremacy as the basis for its teaching, will of course only bring pureblood students to this selection, the same goes for Beauxbatons, the French wizarding school that only just made the distinction between bloodline houses a year ago.

In fact, except for all students in the Hogwarts wagon, Durmstrang only brought students from the third year and above who voluntarily wanted to participate in this tournament.

Even if there is no age restriction on the selection of champions for this Triwizard Tournament, Grindelwald cut off the possibility of students below third year participating directly for the safety of students under him and only sent students who met the requirements and volunteered to participate.

Compared with Voldemort, who truly rules two wizardry schools, although Grindelwald is willing to give Dumbledore some help, this help is certainly not unreserved.

This is something that Dumbledore knows, and Jon, who has spent some time in Durmstrang and followed Grindelwald and observed a few things, also knows very well.

The man who once turned the world upside down for his ideals and the future of the magical world would not come out of that Castle once again to simply help Dumbledore.

Grindelwald has never put his personal feelings first, helping Dumbledore was simply going along with the flow, and he is bound to have other ambitions.

An ambition that is very different from that of Voldemort, Dumbledore and himself fifty years ago.

Even though all the students in the Hogwarts wagon were brought here, they were too few in number, and even compared to other schools that had been screened, they could only be said to be similar.

The wizards who came to this banquet hall could see that the oldest of these students led by Dumbledore looked like they were only sixteen or seventeen years old, which is just the point where they were in their fifth year.

For young wizards, there is a huge difference between higher and lower grades.

After all, some things require a certain age to be reached before being allowed to learn, the first of which is Apparition magic.

From the point of view of age, Dumbledore's side has been at a great disadvantage before it even started.

This made some of the wizards on the scene, who supported the Witching Horizons side from the bottom of their hearts, frown.

However, Dumbledore did not care about those eyes, he just looked at the students brought by McGonagall with a gentle smile on his face, patiently asking them how their life in Durmstrang went.

The students excitedly told him about their lives in Durmstrang and some of the younger students asked Dumbledore with envy on their faces when they would be able to study in their own castle.

Dumbledore still had a smile on his face, but his gaze became incredibly serious.

"We will be able to reclaim our castle soon."

His promise made the young wizards around him all nod their heads together with determination.

And this time Hermione looked at Neville, Neville looked at Ron and Ron looked at Hermione, and finally, it was Hermione who asked with a worried look on her face.

"Professor, Jon, where did he go?"

As early as three days ago they were taken away from the Durmstrang, at that time McGonagall had explained to all of them what exactly the Triwizard Tournament is and what it means.

Although they had been unable to see Jon in Durmstrang, they just thought he was busy, but even here Jon never appeared, which had attracted Hermione's attention.

Hearing Hermione's question, Dumbledore blinked and said softly.

"Do not worry, from the words of my old friend, he will come here today."
