Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 180: Everything is forgotten!
"Professor Lockhart?"

In the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, Suze and Dumbledore looked at each other and both noticed that there was something wrong with Lockhart's condition.

Su Ze quickly came to Lockhart's side. He didn't know the specific situation, so he didn't dare to contact either Lockhart or Constantine, for fear that his actions would cause irreparable harm.

Dumbledore frowned and stared at Lockhart's eyes which were emitting fluorescent light. Although he could not be sure, he knew that Lockhart had successfully entered the depths of Constantine's memory.

But, something seemed out of control.

"Lockhart, can you hear us?"

Dumbledore walked up to Lockhart and whispered in his ear.

Lockhart maintained his original posture. He looked like he was drowning, with his head tilted back, his mouth unconsciously open, and his lips trembling slightly as he tried to take a deep breath.

"Lockhart, Gilderoy Lockhart."

Dumbledore raised his voice and called Lockhart's name again.

This time, Lockhart's expression finally changed a little. He seemed to be controlled by some kind of energy. He wanted to stop all this from happening, but there was no way.

Lockhart frowned, but his eyes were still wide open. He was in a trance, and the fluorescence in his pupils kept flashing, as if he was flashing back to some scene.

His lips kept trembling like a dehydrated fish.

".God.Speed ​​Power"

Like a whisper.

Lockhart tried to speak.

Su Ze suddenly turned his head to look at Rocket Raccoon, only to find that his expression was also unusually serious.

Apparently, Professor Lockhart succeeded.

Now he really saw something.

Something that is incomprehensible and vital.

".Antimatter.Mass.Wave.Is.Coming"

There was a hint of horror on Lockhart's face, as if he had seen some frightening scene, which made his facial features gather together in a hideous manner.

"Lockhart, stop now and cut off the magic!" Su Ze grabbed Lockhart's shoulders. The magic was out of control and Lockhart was in great danger at this time.

But at this point everything could no longer be stopped. The horrifying images and information filled Lockhart's mind, like blowing up a balloon, ready to completely explode his spiritual world.

"Su, stand back."

Dumbledore drew out the Elder Wand and signaled Suze not to come near.

Su Ze took a look at Dumbledore's actions and knew that he was going to do it himself, so Su Ze immediately retreated back to Rocket Raccoon, staring at Lockhart and Constantine.

Without any warning, the moment Dumbledore took out the Elder Wand, the whole room began to shake violently. A strong whirlwind blew in, sweeping up everything around.

"Lockhart!" Dumbledore shouted, pointing his wand at the point where the back of Constantine's head met the top of the wand. "You must sever the mental connection, or I can't save you."

But Lockhart seemed to have heard nothing at this time. He was completely stuck in the quagmire and couldn't extricate himself. Even his body became stiff and motionless as if he was under a petrification spell.

On the other hand, Constantine in front of Lockhart had only slightly closed his eyes, but he seemed to be unconscious, and the external changes did not wake him up at all.

Constantine lowered his head and breathed calmly. He didn't realize that the real world had been completely turned upside down.

".Heaven.Heaven"

Lockhart's whispering continued, his distorted facial features had completely relaxed, and his entire appearance became dull.

"Fallen"

Saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, the fluorescence in Lockhart's eyes became brighter and brighter, and at the same time, the wand in his hand began to break.

"Oh no." Dumbledore frowned.

He knew that Constantine's memories were gradually eroding Lockhart's spirit. This was a reverse invasion. If successful, the information would explode Lockhart's head and even take his life.

Spiritual contact is an extremely dangerous operation, because it is not only communication in the non-material world, but also a special field that is incomprehensible to humans.

Even those who are most familiar with memory magic do not dare to release their brains easily, and establishing this kind of mental connection is a very dangerous thing.

Just like Legilimency was registered as a 'forbidden spell' by Hogwarts, rashly learning this special magic would not only cause harm to others, but would also make it easier for oneself to suffer great damage.

But what Dumbledore didn't expect was that Lockhart's Occlumency technique was actually unable to resist Constantine's memory invasion. Although he didn't know how advanced Lockhart's Occlumency technique had been, it wouldn't be so easily broken.

Or maybe Lockhart had never learned the art of brain occlumency, or maybe Constantine's memory carried some more bizarre energy.
Unlike Dumbledore who was lost in thought, Suze focused his attention on the words Lockhart had just murmured.

Speed ​​force, antimatter wave, these are what Constantine said unintentionally when he first appeared in front of him. This also proves that Constantine's memory has not been completely lost, and there are indeed some things left in his mind, but these memories have been buried deep in his consciousness.

If it were just these two words, Su Ze would not pay special attention to it, because he already had some understanding of it before. However, when the words "Heaven has fallen" came out, even Su Ze couldn't help but squint his eyes.

heaven.

In the worldview of the DC universe, this is an extremely special area.

Heaven refers not only to the special dimension where angels live, but also to the place where the vast majority of kind souls eventually go.

The setting of the DC universe is very confusing, and Su Ze doesn’t know much about it, but even he understands the importance of heaven in the American comics world.

How did heaven fall? That was a dimension created by God, an area heavily guarded by countless archangels. Who could have the power to cause heaven to fall?

Or, there are actually many heavens, and the so-called fall of heaven is just the fall of the heaven where Constantine is.

Then a new question arises. If Constantine appears in heaven, it means that he is dead. Why would a dead hero appear in this place?
Just as Su Ze was lost in thought, Tom Riddle's voice suddenly rang in his ears.

'You are very close to the truth, but Dumbledore and that half-wit are incapable of finding out. You know that, don't you?'

"So, you want to say that you have a way to restore Constantine's memory?" Su Ze frowned slightly.

'certainly. '

Tom Riddle's voice revealed a sense of confidence and self-righteousness. With a gloomy smile, he kept whispering in Suze's ear.

"I am the most powerful wizard in the world. You can see that neither Dumbledore nor that guy can do anything about it. I am the only one who can do this."

Su Ze hesitated but did not speak. He knew very well what the purpose of the Horcrux Voldemort was.

And it’s not that Su Ze looks down on Voldemort, but there are many things he doesn’t know at all. He doesn’t know that he comes from another universe, nor does he know where Constantine comes from.

The reason why the situation at this moment is so weird is entirely because of Constantine's past memories. Those memories mixed with strange energy are constantly impacting Lockhart's spirit and this world.

Su Ze was not sure what the consequences of uncovering these memories would be, and he was even less sure whether the Horcrux Voldemort could help successfully restore Constantine's memory.

Even if he can, is it really a good idea to do so?

Allowing a mad Dark Lord to obtain information about other worlds is definitely not something a normal person would do.

'You know what I can do, Blake, this is the best opportunity.'

'Shut up, this has nothing to do with you.'

Su Ze's eyes turned cold.

As if realizing that Su Ze's tone was very serious, the Horcrux Voldemort paused for a moment, but didn't say much, just snorted coldly.

'You'll regret this'

At this time, Lockhart's situation changed again.

Suze quickly turned his gaze to the center of the room. Brilliant energy had begun to bloom from Lockhart's body. At the same time, the wand in his hand began to break and crack.

The colorful energy is the diffraction of mental power, which means that the spirits of the two people are gradually affecting the real world.

Lockhart's situation is becoming increasingly dangerous.

This has far greater side effects than entering a Pensieve. Constantine's memory is flushing Lockhart's memory and trying to erase Lockhart's soul and sanity.

Dumbledore held the Elder Wand tightly. He knew that he didn't have much time left. If he didn't act quickly, Lockhart's life would be completely extinguished.

Originally he had thought of waiting until Lockhart severed the mental connection, even for just a moment, and Dumbledore would be confident that he could save him.

But now, Lockhart has been completely trapped in the deep world and has no ability to resist.

Thinking of this, Dumbledore sighed softly, and then waved the old wand in his hand violently.

"Obliviate!"

Pure white magical energy gushed out and instantly enveloped Lockhart.

Following Dumbledore's spell, the white magic power turned grayish white the moment it touched Lockhart, and extremely quickly suppressed the brilliant energy.

"Ho-!"

Lockhart opened his mouth and took a deep breath. At the same time, the faint blue fluorescence in his pupils began to flicker as if the power was cut off.

The colorful energy gradually disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye and gradually shrank back into Constantine's head.

The next moment, Lockhart's body tilted and he fell straight to the ground.
