Chapter 382 Nurturing the Silent Ghost King! Preparing for the Miracle Launch Event!
This time, Dali actively unleashed his soul power, activating more soul-snatching chains and constructing over 170 beast-shaped ghost generals into a giant ghost claw, launching a swift attack.
Only through a multi-pronged approach was the powerful, legendary wizard-level creature quickly brought under control and stored within the Soul Control Space within the user's body.
The silent beings themselves have little intelligence. Even after being refined into ghost generals and ghost kings, it does not prevent them from absorbing suppressed emotional fluctuations and other negative emotions to quickly become stronger.
However, Dali still needs to develop more advanced energy-stealing talismans to seize the precious traits from the Obscurus. In order to prevent the difficulty of seizing traits from increasing after the Obscurus becomes stronger, he has to leave the weaker ones untouched for the time being and only refine and cultivate the stronger ones first.
Therefore, within the Soul Control Space, the newly risen black soul fire only enveloped the Obscurus that Aurelius had previously created, which was comparable to a legendary wizard, while the Obscurus that Ariana had previously created remained untouched.
Once the soul fire was extinguished, Dali possessed his first demon king.
Silent Ghost King!
This is not a large external ghost king constructed from a large number of low-level souls, but a ghost king servant that actually possesses the combat power of a legendary wizard on its own.
After the Silent Demon King was refined, the peaceful scene of no one harming each other in the Soul Control Space vanished in an instant.
Under Dali's mental control, the beast-shaped ghost generals and the ghost generals attacked the evil human souls, who were entangled by the soul-hooking chains and had no power to resist.
The evil human souls were beaten so badly they cried out in agony, generating a great deal of painful and repressed negative emotions.
These negative emotions were then instilled into the Silent Demon King through a spiritual connection.
If an evil human soul is tortured to the point of numbness or severely injured, the newly added conceptualized healing spell passive effect will be triggered, restoring them to a healthy state without numbness.
Let them continuously generate a large amount of fresh negative emotions at the best efficiency, to supply the Silent Ghost King.
Dudley also sent his only ghost general, Bella the Ghost, to execute Rodolphus's soul, and the effect was particularly good.
With the help of over a thousand evil human souls, the dark magic power emanating from the Silent Ghost King instantly became stronger, and it did so out of thin air without any external energy replenishment, growing stronger rapidly.
Dali estimated that in just a few months, he would be invincible in the world with the help of the Silent Demon King alone.
At this moment, seeing that Dudley had subdued the Obscurus, Old Man Deng used the Elder Wand to draw out his life's worth of magical knowledge and memories, and slowly handed it to Dudley.
Dali extended his finger and touched it slightly, thus absorbing all of Old Deng's knowledge.
Dudley had acquired most of Old Deng's spellcasting skills by fusing with the Rowan Wood Wand.
But Dudley hadn't really explored Old Dumbledore's other treasure troves of magical knowledge, such as potions and alchemy.
Now, I have it all!
"You can also learn about Aberforth's magical knowledge later; he would be happy to do so."
After stuffing the memory threads back into his head, Dumbledore said, "By the way, when should I go to Diagon Alley to hold a press conference to announce the return of the Hogwarts founder's treasure and the triggering of the blessing?"
This matter should not be delayed. In order to purchase the property, the Potters have already contacted other wizards, causing a small stir.
Although I reminded them to explain their resurrection in vague terms, and your measures ensured that no one could harbor any ill intentions, this situation is still a problem.
"Preparations can begin now. Notify the Daily Prophet and the Ministry of Magic to guide public opinion. A press conference will be held in three days."
Dudley thought for a moment and replied, "In the next three days, I will help the other professors at Hogwarts become younger and resurrect the deceased they wish to resurrect, making sure it matches the story we agreed on beforehand."
“Alright, I’ll get on with the preparations.” Dumbledore agreed, then asked, “Should we also announce the complete annihilation of Voldemort at the press conference?”
"Not for now. Pressure is what motivates us to change the status quo. Right now, the Hogwarts educational reform and the ideological transformation of the wizarding world are in full swing. Removing Voldemort as a mountain at this time is not a good thing."
Dudley answered the question without hesitation.
He now has the ability to remove the huge Dark Mark on the Hogwarts playground, but he deliberately leaves it standing for the same reason.
As long as it's not explicitly stated that Voldemort is completely dead, he can be brought up from time to time to spur students to improve. Why not?
"I had similar thoughts. Coincidentally, the Chinese Ministry of Magic and people from the Chinese secret cultivation world sent me news a couple of days ago."
The official statement said that the ghost cultivator Mo Xuan had been eliminated and the international manhunt order had been lifted, but the soul of Voldemort in the Ten Thousand Soul Banner broke through space and disappeared without a trace.
In a private letter to me, he said that there was a master in the secret cultivation world of China who was skilled in divination and predicted that Voldemort would not live long and would show signs of dying young.
We can take advantage of the official statement from the Chinese Ministry of Magic to continue the pressure Voldemort has placed on the wizarding world and push for reforms.
The results of divination in private letters were omitted, since divination results cannot be considered actual evidence of death anyway.
Dumbledore added.
"There are still capable people in China! They can even predict things like premature death."
Dudley's focus differed from Old Deng's; he had previously underestimated the world's divination and prophecy techniques.
Professor Trelawney can foresee his future battle with Death, and the Chinese fortune teller can calculate part of the consequences of the conceptual curse.
This demonstrates that the world's top divination and prophecy abilities can even incorporate a portion of rule-level power into their calculations, which is truly extraordinary.
“That’s for sure. China is an ancient civilization that has continued to this day, and the same goes for the inheritance of the extraordinary realm. There must be many powerful and capable people who are unknown to us,” Dumbledore remarked.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. We should split up and get going."
Dali focused on the present and didn't dwell too much on his fellow countrymen from another world. Once all his regrets were resolved, he would have plenty of time to travel the world.
After that, Dudley and Dumbledore teleported to Hogwarts Castle.
Dudley went to the professors to ask for the list of resurrected individuals, while Dumbledore went to the headmaster's office and began writing letters to the Daily Prophet and the Ministry of Magic.
Unbeknownst to them, a new storm that would sweep across the entire Western magical world was just beginning to brew.
The root of this new storm lies in their scheme against their old friend, Eccles Black Hunter, whom they had been plotting against all school years.
