Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 535 What Ten Thousand Souls Banner? This is clearly the Human Emperor Banner!

Li Weide drove his vintage car, loaded with equipment, all the way from Europe back to the East.

Following the route given by the Ravenclaw crown, Livde soon saw a majestic mountain... Mount Wangwu.

There's a reason why the family is located in this place.

According to historical records, Li Er's hometown was in Henan province.

Therefore, choosing Wangwu Mountain as the family's location was very appropriate.

Of course, there are also many secluded sects in Wangwu Mountain, but Li Weide is not worried about this.

Because Mount Wangwu is too large, even those reclusive sects cannot occupy it all.

Given their long-term seclusion and the fact that they each have their own methods of concealment, it would be difficult for them to notice that they suddenly have a neighbor.

Following the route given by Li Weide, Delaman landed at the northeast corner of Wangwu Mountain.

Li Weide broke the hidden magic in a special way.

The next second, the sea of ​​clouds in front of them suddenly parted to both sides, revealing a large cluster of antique buildings...

Every brick and every tile carries the rich scent of time and a profound sense of history.

Li Weide stuck his head out of the car window and looked down at the sky, feeling quite satisfied.

With the help of magic, it was so easy to age the place, and the effect was excellent. At first glance, it really looked like a reclusive family that had been living here for thousands of years.

The vintage car landed and stopped on a large flat area in the middle of the buildings.

As Li Weide opened the car door and got out, a group of people silently walked out of the building next door and quickly unloaded the items from the car...

Although these people look different and are of varying ages, they are indeed clones created by Li Weide using his own blood.

Moreover, just like the puppet researchers in the laboratory, they also have souls.

However, these people's souls are replicas created using the latest technology, and they have been implanted with corresponding memories, names, and kinship relationships.

In their minds, Li Weide was a member of their family, and they had lived here for many, many years...

As the Ravenclaw tiara signifies, from this moment on, the family that Rivid had previously existed only in imagination now truly exists.

The only drawback is that these clones generally have shorter lifespans than normal wizards...

However, this defect is unlikely to attract attention in the short term.

Led by a young man, Li Weide arrived at the family's library.

However, only one bookshelf in the library is currently full; the other bookshelves are still empty.

This is also the only flaw in Li Weide's family.

How can a family with a thousand-year history have such a thin foundation?

Even the books on that overflowing bookshelf were just scattered pieces of knowledge that Li Weide had brought from Liu Tao and other young people who had run away from their respective families with Zhang San. They were just a few scraps and could only be used to make a show of it.

However, this problem is not difficult to solve...

Li Weide stood in the library and took out a list he had obtained from Zhang San.

These are the locations of those reclusive sects and families... from those passionate young people who rebelled against their respective families and sects and ran out to save the world.

While they cannot reveal the knowledge passed down to each other, they can disclose where their home is.

These forces are confident and proud enough to protect their own property and are not afraid of external enemies.

Of course, this external enemy might not include Li Weide, the cheat code...

“Just borrow a little, and you’ll have all sorts of inheritances… Let’s start with my few good neighbors.” With that, Li Weide’s figure vanished from the library…

……

"Jingle Bell!"

As the bell rang, all the students who were taking the exam put down their pens.

Tom finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching his test paper being handed in.

The OWLs exams are finally over... The next NEWs exams won't be until seventh grade, so I can finally relax for a while...

Sometimes, Tom really envied that guy, Levi, who could take both exams in one day and get O's on both.

However, Tom got a little angry just thinking about that guy, Li Weide.

Several months have passed, and this guy hasn't even sent a single letter.

Moreover, when I went back to the Moving Castle to find him, he wasn't there.

Even Professor Dumbledore only knew that he had returned to the East and home, but he didn't know exactly where or when he would return.

In fact, Dumbledore was very worried about Rivendell's disappearance.

He even suspected that Li Weide's family had locked him up...

However, Tom believes that this possibility is infinitely close to 0.

Unlike Dumbledore, Tom had witnessed Rivendell's power firsthand.

Besides Li Weide himself, who else could lock him up?
After being out of contact for several months, Tom began to suspect that the guy had secretly gone off to a parallel world on his own, without taking him with him!

With the exams over, this school year has come to an end.

During the week they waited for their results, all the fifth-grade students relaxed and had fun.

After all, the busyness and pressure of this academic year have been overwhelming for them.

However, happiness is not shared by everyone. While everyone else was having a great time, Tom seemed rather melancholy.

Li Weide's disappearance has kept him from being happy.

If it weren't for the people from the guild always being by his side, he probably would have run back to the Moving Castle to wait for news long ago.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and the results were announced.

Tom became the top student in the grade without any doubt.

There's not much to say; when Li Weide wasn't around, he was number one.

The end-of-term dinner ended amidst laughter and joy.

Tom silently got up to go back to sleep. Suddenly, he noticed Dumbledore in the teachers' seat beckoning to him.

"Come to my office, I have news of Wade," Dumbledore said cheerfully.

Tom's eyes widened in surprise. "That guy... finally wrote a letter?"

“Yes, I also sent you a gift. It’s in my office now. Come with me,” Dumbledore said with a smile.

……

In Dumbledore's office.

Tom frowned as he looked at the long box in front of him.

"Is this the gift he gave me?"

“Yes, he wrote to say that the family matters had been settled, and then sent us some gifts. This is what he said he wanted for you. Would you like to open it and see what it is?” Dumbledore said with a smile.

Tom understood. It seemed this guy had eliminated all the enemies in his family and then seized control of the family!
If someone like Li Weide can come from his family, then his family members must be quite capable as well. No wonder it took so long...

With that thought in mind, Tom slowly opened the long box.

Dumbledore also came over, wanting to see what it was.

A simple, ancient Chinese longsword lay quietly in the box...

Tom picked up the sword; it felt slightly heavy in his hand. The scabbard was dusty and gray, and he couldn't tell what material it was made of.

"choke……"

The longsword was drawn from its sheath, the blade trembling slightly, like a pool of autumn water...

In the sweltering summer heat, Tom felt a chill.

“Oh my, this is an artifact of Eastern wizards.” Dumbledore looked at the longsword with delight. “I’ve heard that wizards over there don’t use wands to cast spells, but artifacts like this. This looks… quite valuable.”

Tom did indeed feel the same warmth on the longsword as when he was holding the wand.

Clearly, this is indeed a magic artifact of considerable quality.

Upon seeing this magical artifact, Tom knew that Li Weide had definitely taken complete control of the family, and this longsword might just be a treasure from his family's warehouse.

But why would this guy suddenly get me such a rare longsword?
After Tom sheathed his sword, he found a note in the box.

[Let's practice swordsmanship with your ancestors, and then I'll take you out for some fun during the holidays!]

……

China, thousands of miles away.

Li Weide stood contentedly in his family's library.

Standing next to him was his good brother, Zhang San.

The library at this time was completely different from its empty state before.

All the bookshelves were completely filled!

As for where these things came from... it's actually quite simple. You just need to sneak into someone's house, scan it with a special alchemy tool, and then copy it back...

However, although it sounds simple, only someone like Li Weide, who is a master of his craft, can do it.

With its powerful magic and the added ancient magical enhancements to Nightmare Magic, it's really hard for anyone to detect anything amiss.

The few times he almost got discovered were when Li Weide accidentally triggered the alarm while sneaking in.

Of course, a treasure trove is also essential.

However, all the magical artifacts and treasures in the vault now were made by Li Weide using methods from other people's books on weapon crafting, and were artificially aged.

Although it was from last week in terms of year, its power is not much less, just like the sword given to Tom...

As for other rare materials, Li Weide had no shortage of them...

"It's all set! Everything is ready... From today onwards, our Li family will officially transition from a state of seclusion to one of open engagement! We also welcome talented young people from other families to join our Li family! Third Brother, the rest is up to you."

"Hiss... Are you really planning to reveal your lineage to everyone?" Zhang San looked at Li Weide hesitantly.

At this point, Zhang San was still unaware of the true background of Li Weide's so-called family. He was quite shocked when he saw how much wealth and influence they possessed.

“Of course, other families cherish their possessions, but we can’t do that…” Li Weide laughed. “Of course, we don’t accept just anyone. Those with ill intentions will be thrown out when they pass through the door.”

No matter how well a person can disguise themselves, they cannot disguise their soul. With the technology from the ring he obtained from Death, Li Weide can easily distinguish between the good and evil of those who join him.

"Tsk tsk, so much knowledge passed down... Once the news gets out, your Li family's gate will be broken down!" Zhang San exclaimed in admiration.

However, he added with some concern, "If you do this, you might offend those reclusive old guys... Because of what you've done, young people from other families who were worried about their future and undecided will all have to run away. You're... uprooting their roots!"

“No problem.” Li Weide waved his hand and laughed. “I was worried they wouldn’t react at all! Believe me, only by taking such drastic measures will their views change.”

"Are you sure your family can really withstand this?" Zhang San looked at Li Weide with some doubt.

Li Weide nodded confidently, "I'm all prepared. You don't need to worry about the protective measures. Just help me receive everyone."

With the new equipment developed by Hydra, even the current clones of the Li family are not afraid of any attack.

Consider it a trial run of weapons in preparation for a future major war.

Of course, even if he can't resist, he's not afraid, since he has kept records of all these inheritances and set up teleportation arrays for transferring personnel.

At most, after upgrading the weapons and equipment, we can start a new Li family!
However, Li Weide did not believe that they could break through the current Li family.

……

ten minutes later.

The old Delaman car, carrying Li Weide, soared into the sky and left Wangwu Mountain.

Li Weide sat in the passenger seat, holding a booklet on crafting magical artifacts.

Opening the booklet, the first page showed a picture of a banner with the words "Ten Thousand Souls Banner" written next to it.

"Tsk, what kind of 'Ten Thousand Souls Banner' is this? It's clearly called the 'Human Emperor Banner'!"

Li Weide looked eastward, "I'll take you all in a while...and your merit points are going to skyrocket!"
