"This is to express my reward to you, Peter." Voldemort snorted coldly and said, "You should know very well that I don't need anyone to teach me how to do things."
However, despite saying this, he did not attack Sirius again. He simply waved his wand again, freezing the trembling Harry Potter not far away.
Hogwarts, Gryffindor common room.
"What's going on, Ron?" Hermione looked at her anxious companion and asked in a low voice, "Where on earth did Harry go?"
"I don't know either. We originally agreed to meet in the lounge." Ron shook his head and said, "But I've been waiting here for two hours, and Harry just disappeared."
"Hey, the latest news!" Just as he finished speaking, Ron's two twin brothers, George and Fred, walked into the lounge one after another. "This is definitely big news!"
"what?"
"Stop keeping me in suspense, both of you!"
"Okay, okay. We just got the news from Professor Trelawney that Professor Lupin also disappeared with Harry!"
Professor Lupin?
Hermione was stunned, a look of astonishment on her face. She inexplicably remembered Harry's eagerness when he heard that Professor Lupin was his father's friend.
652 It's really pitiful. Let's burn some incense for him.
"It seems that we can now confirm that Professor Lupin is related to Harry's disappearance." Looking at the black ashes in front of him, Professor Flitwick sighed.
At this moment, the rest of the professors had been dismissed.
Only the four deans and Gerard came to Lupin's residence. These black ashes were found in Lupin's room. The ashes were actually the dead Dementors.
"Asshole! Damn it!" Seeing the evidence confirmed, Fudge was once again furious and said in anger: "I will put that damn Remus John Lupin in Azkaban!"
The Minister of Magic was really angry now. After all, in his eyes, the Dementors were not scary monsters, but jailers who were very loyal to him.
These jailers didn't even need gold coins to feed them; they could work tirelessly forever as long as they could feed on the prisoners' happiness. Losing even one of these excellent employees would make him feel heartbroken.
"Our first priority now is to find him first." Professor McGonagall said calmly.
She was actually trying to stab the other person with this.
Even if Lupin is indeed a criminal suspect now, the other party should not talk about putting him in Azkaban in front of them, the Hogwarts professors. This is an insult to Hogwarts.
"I've said it before, Dumbledore." Snape looked at the old headmaster coldly and said calmly, "Summoning this damned dangerous Lupin would be a huge mistake."
He wasn't speaking in the usual sarcastic way, but rather out of genuine feeling that Dumbledore had done something wrong. He had trusted his intuition and senses too much and had completely failed to anticipate Lupin's danger.
Now Harry Potter had been taken away, his life or death unknown. Snape didn't show it on the surface, but he was deeply anxious inside. No matter what, it was still Lily's child.
"Perhaps I am indeed old." Dumbledore did not argue for himself, but sighed softly. "As long as I can find Harry this time, I will not ask about anything in the school anymore."
"Albus, this..." McGonagall was shocked and her face was full of surprise.
She hadn't expected Dumbledore to want to completely abandon his responsibilities. What a shame. She couldn't imagine what Hogwarts would be like without Dumbledore.
You know, even though she's now the headmaster of Hogwarts, as Fudge said, Dumbledore is still the boss. Her current experience is too limited to make her suitable for the position of headmaster.
"I have made up my mind, Minerva." Dumbledore shook his head, indicating that there was no need to persuade her anymore.
After this unexpected incident, he was really exhausted. He also felt that his ability to see through people was no longer as sharp as before, and he hadn't noticed anything was wrong with Lupin.
Actually, it’s not his fault.
After all, Peter Pettigrew's acting skills were so impressive that even Gerald was impressed. It was perfectly normal for the other party to not notice his true appearance.
"Hmph! Even if you want to escape responsibility, you must first find out the dangerous species you summoned!" Snape said coldly, showing his venomous nature.
"At this point, I'm afraid we can only ask them for help."
Fudge sighed at this point, feeling a sense of sadness at Dumbledore's decision. "I'm talking about the Dementors. They have a trait that allows them to track down the ones who killed them, but only if the murderer is handed over to them for execution."
The so-called execution is the Dementor's Kiss.
Unlike ordinary devouring emotions, the Dementor's Kiss will actually deprive the executed person of their soul. Although the person who has lost their soul is still alive in the body, they can only become a permanent vegetable.
Gerard didn't join in on the discussion, instead turning his attention to the chat group in front of him. After all, he was directing the entire show, so he just had to follow the rules.
Book artist: So that’s how it is. Busujima Saeko can evolve by devouring the flesh and blood of that kind of monster?
Lazy Little Kitten: The one who is a bit of a predator, devouring evolution.
Hatchet Girl: It's not just ordinary flesh and blood, it has to be the core. It's that flesh ball we saw earlier. That thing is actually very clean, without any contamination.
Skirt-lifting maniac: Even if you say so, it’s something growing in a monster’s body, right?
Illustrator: Yeah! Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle, hey! And even if it evolves, I don't think its combat power is that great.
Curly: That's compared to us! Hey, you don't really think our current strength is just weak, do you? In the world of Bleach, we're top captains, right? Top captains! Besides, Kotonoha-chan even possesses some divine power!
Book Artist: Haha, is that amazing? Think about our group leader.
Foul-mouthed Man: Hey, that's boring. I don't think it's necessary to bring up the boss in this kind of situation. The boss is the boss, and people are people. There's absolutely no comparison!
This is an actor: Are you saying I'm not human?
Book Artist: Hahahaha! Yes, that’s what he meant!
Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: Rather than fighting prowess, I'm more curious about Muroi-kun, who confessed his feelings to Saeko. He seemed to appear out of nowhere, yet he knows Saeko and the others intimately and possesses various special abilities. Do you think he resembles a certain type of person?
Lin Fengjiao: A certain type of people?
This is an actor: You mean a time traveler?
The Angel of the Hidden Rain Village: Hmm, it almost perfectly fits the characteristics of a time traveler.
Lazy Kitten: If he's a time traveler, isn't that too miserable? Not only was his confession rejected, but he also turned into a monster. What kind of human suffering is this?
Fairy Chi Lian: This shows that novels are not realistic, and not everyone can have a smooth journey through time.
The illustrator of the book: I guess this guy was pretty confused before he died. This is completely different from the original plot! It was originally just about fighting zombies, but it turned into the arrival of the red moon and mental pollution!
The Skirt-Lifting Maniac: He is really pitiful. Let’s burn some incense for him.
The Evil Leader of Soul Society: What does Kotonoha plan to do next? If she wants to complete her achievement, does she have to investigate the secret behind the red moon?
Wig: This kind of world-class mutation is probably not simple.
Hatchet Girl: Don't worry about anything else, just chop off a few heads first.
653 Busujima Saeko's Past
That's right, chopping off heads.
Katsura Yanye wasn't joking, she really wanted to chop off a few heads. These heads were none other than the officials hiding in the underground shelter in the city center.
They are the deputy governor, security captain, director of the general research department and several scientific researchers in charge of project research of the temporary autonomous region of Bedzhu City. None of these scum can escape.
Since the whole story had been revealed from Busujima Saeko, Katsura Kotonoha was so angry.
The entire Red Moon Era began two months ago.
It happened to be shortly after the school holidays ended that day, and just as the afternoon bell rang, something strange happened. A boy named Xiuchuan in their class suddenly went crazy and threw a nearby female classmate to the ground.
Everyone, including the teacher, struggled to pull him away, but a large hole had already been bitten through the girl's neck. Then, in full view of everyone, a bloody mouth opened on Xiuchuan's belly.
Even Busujima Saeko couldn't keep her composure after such a bizarre sight. She ran out of the classroom along with her frightened classmates.
But it wasn't long before Busujima Saeko discovered that Hidekawa's situation was not an isolated case. Throughout Fujimi Academy, students with Hidekawa's condition existed in every class.
And it wasn't just the students, even the teachers sitting in the office had strange changes.
The entire Fujimi Academy was in chaos for a while, with cries and roars mixed together.
Seeing this situation, Saeko Busujima did not hesitate and immediately went to the health room to find her friend Shizuka Marikawa. There, she also met "Muroi-kun", who was suspected to be a time traveler.
The three of them set out to escape the school temporarily, but on the way they met the protagonists of Apocalypse, Komuro Takashi, Miyamoto Rei, Takagi Saya, and Hirano Kouta.
Luckily, they didn't encounter any pursuers along the way. They arrived safely at the Takagi family, which boasted a strong defense.
From there they also received broadcasts from the island government, saying that such changes were not unique to Bedmaster City, but affected the entire world.
The situation was so dire that the island government had no spare capacity to save all the people. Therefore, the parliamentary department decisively issued a temporary autonomy order, giving each county and city the right to form a new autonomous government and recruit soldiers on their own.
Given the situation at the time, the Takashiro family was the uncrowned king of the entire city of Tsukushi. An autonomous government should be established with their family at its center, leading the people in resisting this abrupt change.
But as night fell, a more serious disaster occurred.
Within a few hours, all humans who were directly exposed to the red moonlight were transformed into irrational, deformed monsters, including the head of the Takagi family, Takagi Soichiro.
Takagi Soichiro, who was originally a strong human, gained a much greater power increase than other mutants after the mutation.
The Takagi clan's defenses were instantly shattered as the Deformed Ones stormed into the Takagi clan's headquarters. Hundreds of people were killed instantly, with only Saeko Busujima and a few others escaping.
During this escape, Komuro Takashi, Takagi Saya and Hirano Kouta also disappeared, and Busujima Saeko felt that they were in great danger.
The loss of their companions weighed heavily on everyone's hearts, and it took several days to recover. The remaining four, Saeko Busujima, Muroi, Rei Miyamoto, and Shizuka Marikawa, decided to seek refuge in the city center.
Fortunately, the shelter base was not far from them, and Hideki Nakano, who had changed from mayor to governor, was happy to accept them.
In the shelter, Saeko Busujima and the other two lived peacefully for nearly two months. During these two months, the survivors around the world also understood the dangerous stage the world was in.
The red moon was like nuclear radiation that had been intensified countless times. If the body was exposed to the moonlight for a few hours, it would completely lose its mind and turn into a monster.
This distortion applies not only to humans but also to animals.
The deformed creatures not only possess immense strength, but also develop a variety of terrifying abilities. Furthermore, as time passes, the threat posed by human guns and artillery to them becomes increasingly weaker.
Until the birth of human transcendence.
After studying the scientific body, scholars discovered that the birth of the extraordinary was also caused by the red moon, but the extraordinary and the deformed took two completely different paths.
However, transcendents also carry the risk of distortion. Overusing their own limitless powers increases this risk.
Even so, ordinary humans still yearn for superpowers. Becoming a superhuman not only allows them to protect themselves, but also makes their future lives more comfortable.
But the transformation of a transcendent depends on one's own luck, and the chances of such a stroke of luck are extremely low. Among 5,000 ordinary people, perhaps only one or two can awaken the power of transcendence.
Fortunately, three of Busujima Saeko's four-member team awakened and became extraordinary beings. Busujima Saeko and Muroi even became the first batch of Night Watchmen to be created.
Everything seemed to be going in the right direction until half a month ago.
Saeko Busujima and Muroi, returning from their mission, discover that their two companions are missing. Through their investigation and through accidental encounters, they uncover the "artificial superhuman" plan of Governor Nakano Hideki.
Using ordinary people as a medium, the "deformed" core organs of monsters are transplanted to create biological weapons that can obey human commands.
After adaptation by scientific researchers, Shizuka Marikawa's genes have super strong compatibility.
The shelter's top management wanted to secretly take in Marikawa Shizuka without alerting Saeko Busujima and Muroi, but in the end, their dirty tricks were discovered.
In fact, the main reason was that they hadn't expected that Miyamoto Rei was actually a transcendent. And her strength was not weak, which caused them a lot of trouble.
Even though Miyamoto Rei died in the end under the siege of many night watchmen and soldiers, the "secret" that the upper class tried so hard to cover up still showed cracks.
Following various clues, Saeko Busujima and Muroi found the source.
654 Sensitive Yin
When Busujima Saeko and Muroi met Marikawa Shizuka again, she had turned into a "monster".
However, unlike those ugly deformed individuals, Shizuka Marikawa has not lost her original appearance. From the outside, she still retains the characteristics of a human.
But her eyes turned a scarlet color unlike that of ordinary people, and her internal organs were infected and deformed.
If the other person's eyes had not revealed humanity and gentleness, Busujima Saeko and Muroi would probably have killed this former companion with their own hands.
But since the other party has not completely lost her humanity, Busujima Saeko will not abandon her companion. No matter what the cost, Busujima Saeko will take her out.
This is the end.
Saeko Busujima and Muroi, the former captain and vice-captain of the Night Watch law enforcement team, completely broke with the autonomous region government.
Despite being surrounded by enemies, the two of them managed to escape from the city center shelter with Shizuka Marikawa. However, during the breakout, Muroi-kun's excessive power was severely overdrawn, and he gradually turned into an unconscious monster.
Blood feud.
For the still-living Saeko Busujima, the shelter's top brass hold an irreconcilable blood feud with her. Katsura Kotonoha also feels that the shelter's top brass are truly scum, openly conducting such anti-human experiments for their own selfish desires.
So, she decided without hesitation to help her new friend, whom she had just met, to get revenge. If she didn't kill someone, she would be unworthy of the group leader's teachings.
Taking advantage of the daylight, the two arrived at the door of the underground shelter in the central city.
Looking around, Katsura discovered that this underground shelter had been rebuilt from a subway station. The main door was welded shut with special metal plates, and two high-frequency cameras were installed in front of it, constantly scanning back and forth.
The reason why they came during the day was that only during the day were the aberrations less active. When night fell and the blood moon appeared, the aberrations would begin to stir.
