Chapter 214: Tom In College Versus Grindelwald!
Wayne made Phoenix stop, fed her a few precious herbs as a reward, and then let her return to the box.
Grindelwald was closing his eyes at this time, showing an expression of enjoyment.
It was like falling asleep and having a sweet dream.
The wonderful feeling of replenishing vitality is really indescribable. It is the pleasure of every exhausted and decaying cell being collectively satisfied.
The older the person is and the closer they are to death, the stronger the feedback will be.
Perhaps their minds have accepted the outcome of death, and even look forward to it, but their bodies only have the most basic instincts and desires.
It took a full quarter of an hour before Grindelwald opened his eyes.
At this time, the old man's originally cloudy eyes became much clearer and had a different kind of light. His rickety body also became upright, and the old age was swept away.
When he looked at Wayne again, Grindelwald's eyes had changed, and even his tone turned into one of surprise.
"No wonder you look down on the soul..."
"Compared with your phoenix, Albus's Fawkes can only be regarded as a firebird."
"The Phoenix King is truly worthy of his reputation."
"Ahem!" Dumbledore coughed twice.
If you praise King Feng, just praise him, why do you want to step on my Fox?
Grindelwald ignored Dumbledore's intention at all, and still asked with great interest: "Lawrence, I can feel that your Phoenix King has retained her hand. She has a more powerful hidden power."
"Have you ever tried to resurrect someone else?"
"No need." Wayne shook his head: "No one around me was killed, so there is no need to violate the laws of life and death.
"I can help you catch a few experimental subjects." Grindelwald said lightly: "Your principal can also do it, if you want."
Hearing Grindelwald's words, Dumbledore's heart beat violently twice.
But in the end, calm was restored.
"Gellert, you passed."
"Boring. "Seventy-seven"" Grindelwald curled his lips and glanced at Dumbledore angrily.
In his sight, Dumbledore seemed to be bound by chains called rules and morals, and he did not dare to cross the line.
These chains were not imposed on him by others. There is no one in this world who can force Dumbledore to exist.
These are all self-restraints Dumbledore has added to himself.
He has become like this since Ariana's death.
Thinking of the woman who changed the fate of the two of them, Grindelwald's mood also dropped.
Instead of talking about resurrection, he picked up the skull, made a tube out of straw and inserted it into it.
The different pupils, one blue and one gray, shined brightly, and the skull also shone, creating a dense mist.
Grindelwald took a deep breath, sucked out all the smoke, and then slowly exhaled it.
The smoke gathered into a screen, and Wayne was stunned by the novelty of the scene.
What can Grindelwald see?
Finally, a picture appeared on the screen, it was Tom.
Dumbledore looked happy, but after seeing the content on the screen clearly, his expression gradually became weird again
Wayne was also stunned for a moment, then chuckled.
On the screen, young and handsome Tom is sitting in a lecture theater, wearing glasses, looking at the projection screen intently, listening to the teacher's lectures, and lowering his head to take notes from time to time. He is more serious than any other students around him.
He looks like a handsome and handsome student who loves to learn.
"This is...a Muggle school?" Dumbledore said with some uncertainty.
"That's right." Wayne nodded, "It should be a Muggle university, I don't know which one it is, this kind of classroom structure is very common.
"Tom actually went to Muggle university?" Dumbledore looked at Grindelwald, waiting for an explanation.
Has your prophecy talent been useless for too long and turned into a daydream?
How could a half-blood who hates his life experience go to a Muggle school?
"I didn't know." Grindelwald rolled his eyes and blew another breath, and the picture began to blur.
Grindelwald's face was a little pale, but he still held the skull tightly.
Finally, when figures clearly appeared on the screen again, this time it became two people.
A Tom, a man with no nose and no hair.
"Voldemort..." Dumbledore said solemnly.
A ray of green light streaked out from the tip of Tom's staff and hit Voldemort straight away.
Bang!
The smoke exploded into a ball and disappeared.
Huh! Huh!
Grindelwald was breathing heavily, beads of sweat seeping out from his forehead, and many of the wrinkles that had disappeared appeared again.
It seemed that the prophecy just now put a lot of burden on him.
"Is it difficult for you to make predictions?" Wayne asked curiously.
"The more specific it is to a person, the greater the price will be paid." Grindelwald gasped: "But this time the situation is obviously wrong. The last picture is incomplete. There is something hindering the understanding.
"I'll die if I keep watching."
Wayne nodded, not knowing what he was thinking.
Dumbledore was also deep in thought.
Judging from the news just now, it seems to be a good result.
Tom and Voldemort had indeed become enemies, and it seemed that Tom had succeeded in a sneak attack.
However, Grindelwald's prophecy is not as unbreakable as Trelawney's. He can only see things that happen with a high probability.
Otherwise they wouldn't have won that year.
Grindelwald either knows that he is destined to fail and does not start a war, or he sees everything and wins easily.
"Thank you, Gellert." Dumbledore thanked him sincerely.
These two pieces of news can help him a lot, at least in the short term, he can feel more relaxed.
"No, I have conditions." After drinking a glass of water, Grindelwald stared at Wayne closely.
"How about you take a rest first." Wayne said with concern, "I'll come over after you recover a little, otherwise I'm afraid I'll beat you to death.
Grindelwald took a slow breath, feeling insulted.
Beat me to death? You think you're Albus?
Ever since he became a world-famous dark wizard, no one dared to talk to him like this.
Oh no, that idiot Aberforth counts as one.
But for Albus's sake, he never cared too much about that guy.
but...
After Grindelwald saw Wayne's sincere and caring eyes, he strangely discovered that this kid... really thought so.
"Little guy..." Grindelwald stood up, "Stop talking nonsense, I can't wait to be beaten to death by you."
"Albus, you won't let us fight here, will you?"
"Come with me." Dumbledore sighed and opened the door to the room.
If we fight here, once the barrier is touched, I am afraid that within half an hour, the entire continent will be in chaos.
So, Grindelwald, who had not left Nurmengard for almost fifty years and even thought he would never leave Nurmengard in this life, once again set foot on the outside world.
The moment he walked out of the tower, even he couldn't help but become confused.
When crossing the barrier, Grindelwald led the way, with Wayne and Dumbledore walking behind him.
Along the way, Grindelwald introduced enthusiastically: "The barrier here was actually arranged by me. Nurmengard was not only my base camp, but also the place where I detained other opponents."
"I don't like killing, especially when facing my compatriots. After all, there are only so many wizards, and if I kill one, I will lose one."
"There was a time when Nurmengard was almost overcrowded."
"But then Dumbledore pushed me into a corner and sabotaged the election. I had to change my strategy and use killing methods to scare the opponents."
Wayne listened but had no intention of deceiving him.
The biggest difference between the first generation and the second generation is not their strength, but their character.
Grindelwald's firm beliefs and his methods of penetrating people's hearts are not something he can control with just a few words.
Dumbledore also said a few words from time to time on the way to prevent Wayne from being distracted by Grindelwald's mouth.
When he came to the outside world, Grindelwald looked at the scenery around him and frowned.
"If there is too much damage here, there will be a lot of trouble. Come with me."
After saying that, he activated his apparation, and Wayne and Dumbledore used their followers to follow him.
One hundred miles away, this is a beach full of desert and reefs.
Nurmengard is located in Austria, which is a typical purely landlocked country without any coastline.
At this time, the three of them had arrived in Italy.
Grindelwald's shabby clothes were blown by the sea breeze. He squinted his eyes and looked at the endless ocean, but he was not in a hurry to take action.
"The Italian Ministry of Magic was the first force to surrender to me back then, and it was also the first force to rebel when I was about to lose power."
"The magic world in this country...can do anything. They surrender faster than the French when they encounter enemies. In order to save them, several of my actions were sabotaged.
Wayne: “…………
In one sentence, two countries were scolded.
Wayne also heard this history mentioned by Nicolas Flamel.
Grindelwald almost burned down half of Paris, but was finally stopped by Queen and the Scamander brothers working together.
But it also left an indelible shadow in the hearts of Parisians.
So when he swept in again, France decisively surrendered. Grindelwald effortlessly conquered the largest country on the European continent at the time, and his momentum surged.
Countless small countries looked at the wind and surrendered.
During that time, in order to avoid trouble and ensure safety, Nico came to Devon, England to settle down.
After remembering the bumpy entrepreneurial road for a while, Grindelwald focused on the present.
"Since it's a duel, etiquette is equally important."
He stretched out his hands and pushed his hair back. At the same time, his face and clothes began to change.
A rebellious face appeared in front of Wayne, and the white hair on his head stood on end, looking extremely arrogant!
Seeing Grindelwald's current appearance, Dumbledore's breathing became messy...
It was like seeing the high-spirited Gellert back then.
"Take out your wand, Wayne Lawrence." Grindelwald bent slightly and performed a standard wizard duel etiquette.
The same was true for Wayne. It wasn't until he stood up that he shook his head and said, "If you use a wand, this won't be a fair fight."
"Since Mr. Grindelwald fights empty-handed, so should I.
"And I also have some little tips on how to cast spells without a wand.

[Talent evaluation: Legend, one step away from you]
[Strength evaluation: Archmage]
Wayne has not drawn a card for such a long time, but this does not mean that his strength has not improved.
The gathering storm fed back again, increasing his magic power by 0.1 Deng. The comprehensive strength evaluation also came to the Archmage.
That is the level of Grindelwald, Voldemort, and Dumbledore.
But at what level, Wayne couldn't tell.
After all, this is a world without clear hierarchy and too idealistic.
Only after truly fighting against such a person can we have a clear understanding.
"It's really arrogant."
Grindelwald glanced at Wayne appreciatively.
He doesn't dislike such a temperament, he even likes it.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the other party has the capital.
Having seen the fight between Wayne and Tom, he already recognized Wayne's talent.
Bang!
A ball of blazing blue flame burned in Grindelwald's hands. If there were any knowledgeable dark wizards around, he would be shocked.
This is fierce fire!
Li Huo is not a difficult black magic to learn, but it is definitely one of the most difficult to control.
Most people can't control the fire at all. They can only unleash it and let the flames grow wildly, hurting others and themselves.
It is even more unthinkable to play with Grindelwald in his hands like this.
"Come on, don't think that just because you defeated a sixteen-year-old Tom, the dark wizard is nothing more than that.
While speaking, Grindelwald threw Li Huo out and landed on the ground, forming a circle that tightly surrounded him.
The flames kept rising and expanding, cutting off the line of sight between the two, and only Grindelwald's faint voice came out.
"Let's move your body first, I haven't experienced this feeling for a long time.
"Fire Escape Bodyguard!"
Roar!
The blue flames gathered into huge firebirds, roaring towards Wayne!
Dumbledore was fully focused, and the Elder Wand had already appeared in his hand. As long as the situation was not right, he would immediately take action to save the situation.
Although he knew that Wayne was very strong,... in his heart, Wayne was far from 5.0 and not as high as Grindelwald.
Now is a test for Wayne, allowing him to see clearly the gap between himself and the truly strong, and he will work harder in the future.
The future of the magical world is doomed to be full of dangers. The stronger Wayne is, the greater their chances of winning will be.
Unfortunately, the result of this competition was destined to surprise Dumbledore.
The flying speed of the Firebird was not fast, it was more of a show off and demonstration. Wayne raised his hands, and the sea surface became rough.
"It is really unfortunate that Mr. Grindelwald chose this place as the battlefield."
"As a child, playing with water is what I'm best at."
Groan!
More than a dozen huge water dragons suddenly appeared on the sea surface, rising into the sky, and the sun's mouth bit the mighty fire in the sky!
The blazing high temperature evaporated a large amount of water vapor, turning the battlefield into a cloud and mist. Sea water continued to emerge and converge into the water dragon's body, wiping out the energy of the fierce fire.
An excited smile appeared on Grindelwald's lips: "That's amazing. Is your special talent the control of water flow?"
"In the entire magic world, there are no more than five people who can do this.
He finally put aside his playful thoughts and looked squarely at the young man in front of him. The methods Wayne showed now were enough to make him take it seriously.
But the next second, Grindelwald's face darkened as he watched Wayne cast the spell!
