Revenge Wizard (Seeking Collection and Votes)

Chapter 043

Inside a nuclear submarine in the Pacific Ocean.

Nicolas Flamel sat in a wheelchair, with soldiers controlled by the Imperius Curse beside him.

He carefully examined the World Map, continuously marking it with Cross Skulls. These were the locations he had chosen for nuclear strikes, including the Ministry of Magic in various countries and major cities established by Muggles. He wanted the whole world to be buried with him and his wife.

Although he admitted that he had dealt with the Phoenix City Lord because of his greed for Spark Energy.

But no matter what, the Phoenix City Lord should not have harmed his wife, who had accompanied him for hundreds of years.

She was innocent; why did he have to kill her with a nuclear bomb?

If the Phoenix City Lord could use nuclear bombs, then in the words of the East, he could also use nuclear bombs: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Unlike other conservative wizards, he had never underestimated Muggle technology.

Alchemy itself was the technology of the Wizarding World. He now wanted to combine the technology of the Wizarding World with Muggle technology to create nuclear bombs that neither Muggles nor wizards could intercept. He would rather destroy this world than see the Phoenix City Lord rule it.

Through Legilimency, he could easily obtain the exact locations of all nuclear weapons from Muggle memories.

Through the Imperius Curse, he could easily control the soldiers in charge of these nuclear weapons.

The nuclear bomb thrown at his home had already created tension between the Muggles and the Wizarding World of various countries. He only needed to drop a few more nuclear bombs, and the Muggles would start a nuclear war themselves and destroy everything. His current headache was how to kill the Phoenix City Lord?

He himself could escape from a nuclear bomb; the Phoenix City Lord surely could too.

Muggle nuclear bombs could destroy the surface and kill all Muggles, but they were still insufficient to completely annihilate wizards.

As long as wizards could use Apparition to dodge, they could find ways to survive deep underground.

He had delayed dropping the nuclear bombs because he was preparing a trap that would prevent the Phoenix City Lord from using Apparition.

Preventing Apparition was not difficult for him. The difficulty was that the range of anti-Apparition was not very large, and the Phoenix City Lord could fly. Even if he managed to lure the Phoenix City Lord into the anti-Apparition trap, the Phoenix City Lord could escape danger by simply flying straight up into the sky.

Therefore, he needed to calculate the detonation time of the nuclear bombs and enforce a flight ban to ensure the Phoenix City Lord had nowhere to escape.

As he was contemplating where to set the trap, a Ring on Nicolas Flamel's thumb began to heat up.

This was a communication Ring, capable of transmitting one sentence at a time. Currently, only Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick had matching communication Rings. He had given them the Rings when they escaped Hogwarts together, to facilitate communication regarding their plans against the Phoenix City Lord.

Activating the communication Ring, Nicolas Flamel immediately heard Professor Flitwick's message.

It turned out that a group of wizards close to Dumbledore had been captured as hostages. The Phoenix City Lord had let Professor Flitwick go, asking him to exchange his message for the captured wizards. He had even forced Professor Flitwick to kill Nicolas Flamel and seize the Philosopher's Stone to present to the Phoenix City Lord.

Although there were hostages, Professor Flitwick had no intention of betraying him.

That was why he had contacted Nicolas Flamel through the communication Ring, hoping he could create a fake Philosopher's Stone to deceive the Phoenix City Lord.

"The Phoenix City Lord wants the Philosopher's Stone too?"

Nicolas Flamel thought to himself.

It wasn't strange that the Phoenix City Lord would be tempted by the Philosopher's Stone, which granted immortality.

If that was the case, could he tamper with the Philosopher's Stone?

The first thing he thought of was a Portkey. A Portkey was equivalent to a trigger-based teleportation device.

He only needed to modify the real Philosopher's Stone into a Portkey, and then, with Professor Flitwick's help, hand it over to the Phoenix City Lord. As soon as the Phoenix City Lord obtained the Philosopher's Stone, he would be instantly teleported into a trap by the Portkey's power.

However, for this plan to succeed, the prerequisite was that Professor Flitwick was not under the Imperius Curse.

If he was already controlled by the Imperius Curse, this might be a trap set by the Phoenix City Lord for him.

After a long period of contemplation, Nicolas Flamel began to discuss with Professor Flitwick via the communication ring about when and how to hand over the Philosopher's Stone to Professor Flitwick. After some deliberation, the time was set for seven days later.

The nuclear bomb he had originally planned to deploy could only be postponed until seven days later because of this.

Li Mu watched Professor Flitwick finish sending the message and ordered Lucius to lock him up.

The communication ring had also been removed and would not be returned to Professor Flitwick unless Nicolas Flamel sent a message.

Having dealt with Nicolas Flamel, Li Mu continued to organize the collected Magic Books.

This organization lasted until the next morning. He had only organized less than half of them. The Magic Knowledge he had organized that he had not mastered included many uncommon spells and Ancient Charms. Among these, the most valuable were some Ancient Charms.

These Ancient Charms consumed a lot of energy to cast and were difficult to perform. They basically originated from the earliest generations of Wizards.

There were thousands of spells involved, which was incomparable to the dozens of spells in the movies. After all, this was a complete magical civilization that had lasted for nearly two thousand years. Although many spells were outdated and had been eliminated, they revealed the development history of spells in this world.

If he could fully master this Magic Knowledge, creating new spells would be as easy as flipping his hand.

Calculating the time, Snape should have reported back to him.

Apparition. Li Mu returned to the Basement of Borgin and Burkes.

Snape was pacing anxiously. Seeing Li Mu appear, he immediately picked up a bottle of potion and stepped forward.

Li Mu took the potion. He hadn't expected Snape to actually complete it in one day?

He could only say that Snape's talent was truly exceptional, but sometimes he needed a push to display his full strength.

HuoZhong Source Power was injected into the potion, and the Anchor of Fantasy began Fantasy Conversion.

[Dragonblood Potion Type I: Spark Potion]

[Quality: Earth Grade High-Rank]

[Effect: Permanently and significantly enhances skin toughness, magic resistance, and self-healing capabilities based on individual physique. Also enhances flesh and bone strength to a certain extent. Effects can stack and amplify when combined with other models of Dragonblood Potion.]

"Here, drink this."

After reading the stats, Li Mu happily tossed it to Snape.

Snape drank the potion without hesitation. His entire body immediately became burning hot and red. Impurities within his skin were constantly being steamed out from the surface. It took a full half hour before he digested the reinforcement this potion provided to his skin.

"Stupefy~!"

Li Mu cast a Sleeping Charm, knocking Snape unconscious.

Several magic blades formed by Searing Blade sliced across the edge of his facial skin. Following the cut, a Skinning Charm peeled off the entire face. Then, based on the Phoenix Mark on his brow, two magic spells were enchanted onto this facial skin.

The first was the Imperius Curse, and the second was Legilimency.

After the enchanted tattoo was complete, Fantasy Conversion generated a special Fire Seed Human Skin Mask.

Li Mu injected Spark Energy into the human skin mask. The mask immediately merged with Snape's not-yet-fully-regenerated skin. Through this human skin mask, he could, from thousands of miles away, cast Legilimency and the Imperius Curse on Snape at any time via the Phoenix Mark.

Under normal circumstances, even he could only control a dozen Wizards simultaneously with the Imperius Curse.

But with these human skin masks, controlling the consciousness of hundreds or thousands of Wizards simultaneously with the Imperius Curse would be no problem.

Of course, because HuoZhong Source Power was precious, only his elite subordinates were qualified to receive the human skin masks.

As long as this portion of people couldn't betray him, they could help him control the remaining Wizards. He couldn't and didn't need to control all the Wizards in the world. He only needed to control the ruling class of the Wizarding World and ensure they wouldn't betray him after he left.
