Chapter 592: The Locket of Torture, Where Is the Hufflepuff Cup Hidden? (1/2)

Chapter 592: Interrogating the Locket, where is the Hufflepuff's gold cup hidden?

The locket did not react at all, and was quietly held in the palm of the thought body.

The thought body raised the corner of its mouth slightly, and used its telekinesis to place it in the air.

"When I was looking for you just now, the compass needle changed its position several times. This is the first suspicious point.

As for the second one... a mountain of gold coins, you are actually right in the center of the gold mountain. This is too much of a coincidence!

If I am not a wizard, I would not be able to dig you out in a few hours."

Seeing that the locket still did not move, the thought body could not help but shake his head, "You will not cry until you see the coffin!"

"If it were just these two suspicious points, it would be fine. I don't believe in coincidences.

But from just now to now, I can clearly feel a negative emotion growing in my heart, pessimism, anger, and the worst is a hint of jealousy.

It's a pity that my spiritual will is much stronger than you think. You may not have any hope of shaking my heart in this life, and it will be difficult in the next life."

The locket trembled slightly, and the emerald on it flashed a strange cold light, but it fell silent after a moment.

"Ignore me? Are you confident that I can't destroy you?

That's just because I don't want to destroy you now. After all, the reduction of Horcruxes will make your main soul more nervous to protect the remaining Horcruxes, which is not in line with my plan." The thought body said, and a cold white flame emerged from his hand, "If you don't believe it, we can try the power of the Fiendfyre.

By the way, I also know a little about the Avada Kedavra curse, and it's not like I haven't killed anyone before."

The locket suddenly opened, and a thick black gas flew out, forming a huge human face.

The human face made a hoarse roar and quickly approached the thought body, but the Fiendfyre quickly expanded to form a wall of fire that blocked it several meters away.

"Why bother?" The thought body sneered and shook its head, "I don't want to destroy you for the time being, but if you are so depressed, I won't stop you."

As the inky human face floated in the air, the empty dark red pupils stared at Aaron.

"You are special, your body, blood, and even your soul."

"I know." The thought body shrugged and said confidently: "This is determined by my birth. The best thing I have done in my life is to be born into a good family."

"Pure blood? Noble?"

"I think so!" The thought body smiled shyly, "My parents are both pure blood wizards, and my family has some assets and is not lacking in foundation."

As soon as the voice fell, the black face suddenly exploded.

Thick black fog swirled up in the air and spread to the surroundings, quickly engulfing the entire vault.

"I still need a heart, maybe yours is just right."

The thought body was very speechless, and didn't understand where this Horcrux got its confidence from.

Don't you know that your main soul has failed to take me down again and again? Well, he is just a soul fragment and really doesn't know.

"I have seen a lot, too good of a birth, too good of a talent, but you are still confused."

A bewitching voice came from the darkness, and the thought body was completely unmoved.

Confused, his goal is very clear, to inherit the family property accumulated by Gaius family for thousands of years, to live on his merits and wait for death, to be a prodigal son.

But that was his goal before he was eight years old. Now he has an immortal life and an indestructible soul. Becoming a god is just the first step. As for the future... take it one step at a time, but before that, he must kill Voldemort, the disgusting thing.

Tom Riddle was also a little confused when he found that the thought body was calm and composed, without any tension.

But this is not enough to make him give up. No matter how outstanding a young man is, there will definitely be flaws in his mind.

"You are afraid, afraid of losing."

"I don't deny it, no one is not afraid, but I will protect what I cherish, I have the ability to do so."

"Hahaha, I admire your confidence.

But haven't you always been avoiding it?

Difficulties, dangers, enemies, hard work, you want to avoid these, but they are always entangled with you."

"Alas! It's all tears if I say too much!" The missing body said depressedly, "I have had a lot since I was born, and I am not greedy. I just want to live a stable life of eating and waiting for death, and getting something for nothing.

But later I gradually found that it is not so easy to lie down. My family is more peculiar. The better the talent, the less lazy I can be. In summary, I am the most miserable one in our family for three generations.

What you said is not wrong, but I just want to rest for a while, isn't this okay?"

Tom Riddle was stunned for a moment, and he was at a loss for a while.

A needle can't be inserted, water can't be poured in, and there is no emotional fluctuation. He has no chance to create a flaw.

"Since simple methods can't solve the problem, I can only give it a head-on fight." Tom Riddle thought secretly, and then mobilized the magic power in the Horcrux.

Just like the crown of Ravenclaw can make people have extraordinary wisdom, the locket of Slytherin is the relic of the Holy Magister Salazar Slytherin, which also contains powerful magical energy, which can transform a person's most feared scene in his heart.

The next moment, the black fog surged wildly, and a dark door appeared in the air.

The dense footsteps mixed with the howling of wolves came from it, and two armies slowly walked out of the door.

One is the half-orc army, they rode on the wolves and roared at the thought body, and the other is the medieval human cavalry, with crossbows and catapults aimed at the thought body.

Then a dragon that covered the sky and the sun appeared, staring at him with cold vertical pupils, and under their feet were countless corpses, in addition to humans, there were dwarves, elves, and even animals in armor.

Thought body:......

This is a naked provocation! Or just destroy it directly!

Tom Riddle: ? ? ?

Nima! Who the hell is this guy? He has never seen such a big scene.

But this is not a bad thing. The stronger the illusion created, the greater the chance of breaking through the mind defense of the thought body.

"Huh!" The thought body took a deep breath, "Is this your strongest method? It's really disappointing!"

"Come on!" Tom Riddle roared.

Snap!

"Boring!" The thought body snapped his fingers, and the darkness around him quickly faded, replaced by a quiet green lake.

The orc army and the evil dragon Smaug also gradually dispersed, leaving only an ancient pendant box in the air, and a fist-sized black fog surrounded the pendant box at a loss.

"Welcome to my spiritual space." The thought body said lightly, "Originally, my current magic power is not enough to make it materialize, but your magic power accidentally helped me."

"You... who are you?" Tom Riddle asked angrily.

"I think he is your enemy!" The thought body said bluntly, "The last time your main soul wanted to occupy my body and come in, I let him in.

Because I have great authority in this space, but unfortunately I was not well prepared and let your main soul escape, otherwise I might be able to kill you once."

Hearing this, Tom Riddle stepped back in fear.

He felt that his behavior just now was a clown performance. The main soul with a body and powerful magic did not succeed, not to mention that he was just a soul fragment.

"What is your purpose?"

"It would be great if you had cooperated earlier, wasting my time." The thought body said disdainfully, "Answer me a few questions, tell the truth and I can promise not to destroy you for the time being.

But if you lie to me, I don't mind destroying a Horcrux.

I advise you not to try it, I have a way to confirm the truth."

"Speak." Tom Riddle said unwillingly.

"How many Horcruxes did you make?"

"Four." Tom Riddle hesitated.

"Lie, it's obviously six." The thought body sneered.

"That may be after my Horcrux is made." Tom Riddle said, but his tone was a little more relaxed.

"Can the Horcrux connect with the main soul?"

"No, the Horcrux is to ensure the immortality of the soul, not to create another self.

Only when the main soul dies or is at its weakest can the Horcrux have the opportunity to replace the main soul and revive."

"Suppose I destroy a Horcrux now, can your main soul sense it?"

"This, this..."

"My patience is limited." A wisp of white flame appeared on the fingertips of the thought body.

"If the number of Horcruxes destroyed does not exceed half, the main soul should not be able to detect it." Tom Riddle said immediately.

"Should? This word doesn't seem to be accurate!"

"Uh... If the time span is longer, the upper limit of the number of Horcruxes destroyed can be increased by one or two."

The thought body nodded thoughtfully. To be on the safe side, it can destroy up to four Horcruxes. If there are more, Voldemort's main soul may be able to detect it.

"One last question, where is the Hufflepuff cup hidden?"

Tom Riddle paused, "I don't know."

Sizzle!

The white flame floated towards the locket, and the white and gold necklace was stained with a trace of flames. Tom Riddle felt the burning pain and screamed violently.

"Stop, stop, don't burn it."

The thought body retracted the Fiendfyre, "This is just a small lesson. Don't think I'm easy to fool just because I'm young.

I'll ask you again, where is the Hufflepuff cup?"

"I really don't know, I only know that the Hufflepuff cup is a Horcrux.

But my memory ends after I was made into a Horcrux, and I don't know where the main soul will hide the Horcrux."

"Is that so?" The thought body frowned slightly, "Then where do you think your main soul will hide the Horcrux?"

"I..."

"It seems that you want to experience the feeling of being burned by flames again?"

"No, don't." Seeing the approach of Fiendfyre, Slytherin's locket trembled instinctively.

"Then think about it carefully, I can give you a hint." The thought body smiled meaningfully, "The vault."

"How do you know?" Tom Riddle asked in doubt, but he knew something bad was going to happen as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You are still too impatient." The thought body sneered: "I will give you ten seconds, I hope you will seize this chance to survive."

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four...

Every time the thought body counted a number, the white Fiendfyre moved closer to the Horcrux. Feeling the trembling of the soul, Tom Riddle finally couldn't hold it anymore.

The Horcrux is the guarantee of the immortality of the main soul, but it is also afraid of death like the main soul.

In addition to not having any special ideas about the main soul, the first priority of the Horcrux is to protect itself under any circumstances.

It was just a clue to another Horcrux. Although he was a little reluctant, he would not have any psychological burden. Besides, the thought body might not be able to find it.

"Gringotts!" Tom Riddle shouted.

The white Fiendfyre stopped, less than 30 centimeters away from the Horcrux, but the thought body did not take it back.

"Very good, continue."

"Continue what?"

"You are asking even though you know it. Gringotts is much bigger than Hogwarts. What is the difference between looking for a Horcrux there and looking for a needle in a haystack?

What I want is the exact location, which vault is accurate."

Tom Riddle wanted to cry but had no tears. "I just wanted to use Gringotts, the most powerful defense in the magic world, to protect the Horcrux. As for which vault it is, I really don't know."

The thought body rolled its eyes and then waved its hand.

The Fiendfyre flew to the Horcrux, and the platinum necklace was instantly ignited, turning into ashes bit by bit.

"Ah!"

The flames slowly extended to the locket, and the shrill screams echoed in the air.

"Stop, stop now.

You will get nothing if you kill me."

"No, I can get a sense of accomplishment." The thought body said seriously, "After all, this is a fragment of the Dark Lord's soul!"

"You lunatic, Voldemort will not let you go."

"Threaten me?

I'm not afraid to tell you that there is basically no possibility of easing between him and me.

And now I'm giving you a chance, don't play tricks if you want to survive."

"Stop now, I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

The thought body smiled and immediately removed the Fiendfyre.

One third of the necklace on the locket was burned, and the black mist surrounding it seemed to have shrunk a circle and weakened a lot.

"Tell me! Which vault is it?"

"I don't know the specifics, but it's definitely the vault of the person I trusted the most at the time."

"For example?"

"Malfoy, Black, Lestrange, Crouch, Dolohov, Snape, Rosier, Karkaroff, etc., etc., every one of them is possible."

After hearing this, the thought body had black lines on its forehead.

There are clues, but it seems that there are none.

Even if you know the specific target, it is not easy to rob a bank, not to mention there are so many interference factors.

"What I said is true. If you don't believe me, I can't do anything." Tom Riddle said angrily.

"Okay! I can trust you this time with reluctance.

I keep my word and will not destroy you for the time being, but you must die when the time is right."

Tom Riddle:......

"What are you going to do with me?"

"Of course, like the diadem of Ravenclaw."

"Ra, the diadem of Ravenclaw?" Tom Riddle's heart was in turmoil, "Did you find..."

Before he finished speaking, five elemental magic circles surrounded the locket, forming a pentagram pattern, and Tom Riddle's voice stopped abruptly.
