Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 272 Myself from a Parallel World

"How is that possible?" Dumbledore drew out the Elder Wand and observed it carefully.

Grindelwald only had to take a quick look at it to know that it was indeed the real Elder Wand.

After all, he had held this wand for a long time.

However, since the Elder Wand was in Dumbledore's hands, why did Grindelwald have another Elder Wand in his hand just now?

At this moment... Grindelwald finally understood why he was at a disadvantage in the previous battle of spells.

It’s not that his magic power is not as strong as the other party’s, but because the other party has the blessing of the Elder Wand!
Grindelwald clenched his fists, savoring the brief confrontation.

Such powerful and familiar magic... There is no mistake, the thing in the other party's hand is indeed a genuine old magic wand!
"Although I don't know what happened, but... I now know that this matter should have nothing to do with you." Grindelwald said in a deep voice.

Dumbledore nodded. "The most urgent task is to prevent this from happening again. Although I don't know where these people came from, this problem is very serious!"

"Now they only appear for a second or two and then disappear. Who knows if these people who look like us will appear for a long time tomorrow?"

"I don't want to see another Grindelwald appear in this world!"

Grindelwald also sighed, "Damn it, I don't want to see a second or third Dumbledore appear in front of me..."

At this time, Dumbledore also noticed that Levid next to him looked thoughtful.

"Have you thought of anything?" asked Dumbledore.

"Indeed... I thought of a possibility. But... as you said, we have to resolve this situation first. After it is resolved, we can have a good chat." Li Weide said.

"That's easy to say! How are you going to solve this problem if you don't even know why it happened?" Grindelwald said unhappily.

Li Weide looked at the colorful vortex on the top of the tent, and then said, "Take away all the dark creatures in the tent."

"No!" Grindelwald said stubbornly. "It's not completely proven that the dark creatures are to blame!"

Education reform is an indispensable part of his plan and cannot be stillborn!

Dumbledore said coldly, "Grindelwald! Isn't the current situation obvious enough? The longer these dark creatures gather together, the more frequent these things will happen! You know, today during the day, it was just some hallucinations! At night, the hallucinations became reality! Aren't you worried at all?"

Li Weide looked at the vortex on the tent that was slowly growing larger at an imperceptible speed and said calmly, "Professor, we can't delay any longer. Since he doesn't want to transport these dark creatures...how about this...we store them in several different places?"

Levid's words made Dumbledore and Grindelwald's eyes light up.

Since these strange situations are most likely caused by the excessive gathering of dark creatures, which creates a chaotic magical magnetic field, such strange situations have occurred.

It is indeed a feasible method to store these dark creatures separately to reduce the magical magnetic field.

After all, nothing so strange had happened before these dark creatures were brought here.

"Okay... everyone, let's do it!" After ensuring that his own interests would not be harmed, Grindelwald made a prompt decision.

The witches immediately rushed into the tent.

After a while, packed boxes of all sizes floated behind these witch party members and flew out of the tent.

"Sir, how should we divide it?" asked a Wu Zetian member.

"Spread out according to the original grade divisions!" Grindelwald said solemnly. "First-years, those dealing with the dark creatures, go that way. Second-years, go this way... Each group should be two hundred meters apart."

The witch party members were very efficient. After a while, they each took the boxes containing the dark creatures and quickly left in all directions.

Dumbledore immediately felt that the chaotic magical magnetic field was rapidly weakening!
He looked at Li Weide, "How is it?"

Dumbledore couldn't see the situation of magic and could only rely on his senses, so he wanted to get more accurate information from Levid.

"Far away! Five hundred meters is best!" Li Weide said in a deep voice after looking carefully.

Grindelwald did not ask any more questions at this time and directly conveyed the order, changing the distance between each other from 200 meters to 500 meters.

When everyone arrived at the location, Li Weide found that the originally colorful vortex had gradually dissipated.

"It really works." Li Weide said.

Dumbledore also felt it, although the dark magic power of the dark creatures was still there.

But that chaotic magical magnetic field completely disappeared!
Everyone stayed there for a long time, and the inexplicable situation before did not happen again!

In other words, these strange occurrences were actually caused by that chaotic magical magnetic field? After Grindelwald had everyone rebuild their tents on the spot to protect themselves from the dark creatures, he seriously asked Livid, "What exactly is going on? What were you thinking about just now?"

Dumbledore also looked over, wanting to know what Levid was thinking.

Li Weide looked at the lawn below him, then sat down cross-legged.

Seeing this, Dumbledore and Grindelwald simply followed Levid and sat on the ground.

Li Weide didn't keep the secret and said directly: "I think these similar people may come from a parallel world, or in other words, a parallel universe..."

The reason why Li Weide thought of the parallel world was because of his own time-travel experience!

Since I traveled from the original Earth to the current Earth, why can't it be said that it is another parallel world?

At this moment, Dumbledore and Grindelwald looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

"What does this mean?" Grindelwald asked.

At this time, Li Weide also remembered that the theory of parallel worlds was proposed by Muggle physicists in the 1950s.

In this modern age, it is not surprising that Dumbledore and Grindelwald were unaware of this.

Li Weide thought for a moment, then said, "To make it easier for you to understand this concept, let me first give you an example similar to this theory... You should know what time travel is."

Grindelwald nodded. "Yes, of course I know. There's a room in the Department of Mysteries within the Ministry of Magic dedicated to the study of time... What? Do you think the people we just encountered were all versions of ourselves from different time periods?"

"No, please listen to me first." Li Weide said.

"Okay, go on..."

"I want to ask, what would happen if someone deviated while time traveling and accidentally changed something in the past?" Li Weide asked again.

Dumbledore replied, "This has indeed happened in the past. A time traveler encountered an accident while using a time-twister and was transported back centuries... When she returned to the present day, her body seemed to have aged by centuries... Moreover, because of her accident, many people who should have existed disappeared without a trace... It must be that she changed something in the past, causing many people who should have existed to not be born! This was a catastrophic mistake..."

Li Weide nodded and tapped the ground with his wand.

The lawn in front of him suddenly turned into sand.

Li Weide used his magic wand to draw a straight line on the sand. At the left end point of the line, he marked a number "1", and in the middle of the line, he marked a number "2".

Li Weide continued, "Suppose these two points are time nodes, and her time travel is from the time node of point 2 back to point 1. Originally, according to the development of history, the time flow at point 1 would naturally come to point 2. However, after the accident..."

Li Weide then drew a branch diagonally to the side between point 1 and point 2, and then added a straight line on the branch parallel to the previous straight line.

Then, on this new straight line, at almost the same place as point 2, point 3 was marked.

"After the accident, the timeline changed. What was supposed to arrive at point 2 has now arrived at point 3. A lot of things have changed."

"For example, at time point 2, Tom was attending school at Hogwarts. However, after the changes, Tom, who was supposed to be born, was not born this time. So, at time point 3, there is no Tom at Hogwarts..."

"The Hogwarts at Point 2 and Point 3 are exactly the same. There's Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and the same students from other departments... It can be said that, except for the absence of Tom, the world at Point 3 is almost identical to the world at Point 2!"

"However, precisely because of Tom's absence, the timelines of Points 2 and 3 have become two extremely similar yet different worlds!"

"Because of changes in the past, Tom is gone in timeline 3, but in timeline 2, Tom exists!"

"If this time traveler knew Tom, then she should have memories of Tom when she returned to the present!"

"This also means that while Timeline 3 exists, the original Timeline 2 will not disappear!"

"On timeline 2, this time traveler may not have returned to the past..."

Dumbledore said, "I think I understand what you mean. In our timeline, Tom exists, but in the other timeline, Tom does not exist... These are two possibilities... They become two similar yet different worlds."

Grindelwald also understood a little, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he continued to look at Levid.

Li Weide continued, "Since different timelines have similar worlds, similar people, and similar events, then... can we think of it this way: outside of our world, there are also worlds that are similar to ours, but different?"

"You mean... what I just encountered was myself from another world?" Grindelwald asked.

"Yes, do you remember what's different about the two new Bests?" Li Weide asked.

Dumbledore said, "Their hair color is different... Moreover, the newly appeared Grindelwald still holds the Elder Wand... In other words, the Elder Wand of Grindelwald in that world has not yet been confiscated by me. This is the difference between similar worlds..."
