Like Azkaban, there is very little information about Nümongaard in the wizarding world, only rumors. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The most terrifying of these rumors, and at the same time the most fantastical, is the caretaker of Newmengard.

Some say that the guards, like the Dementors of Azkaban, are nightmare monsters from the deepest parts of hell, and that no one can resist them.

It is also said that the caretaker of Nunmengard is the embodiment of a terrible curse, death.

Regardless of the rumors themselves, and what the truth behind them is, there is no way to deny that all the prisoners who tried to escape from Nyumengard ended up dead, disappeared from the world, and never appeared again.

But no one knows what Newmengard looks like and what kind of creature the guards are.

Only those who have been there know the specific situation there, how terrifying it is, and ordinary wizards talk about it with relish.

Whether it's its past or present, the legends of the prisoners and the hidden behind the buildings.

Evan had expected to be like Azkaban, seeing a terrifying structure with terrifying dementor-like jailers roaming the ruins, sucking all the joy and life force out of the land, leaving behind fear and despair.

But no, he and Dumbledore appeared, and in front of them was a desolate town.

Although panicked, there are still traces of human activity, but it is not so pleasant.

Speaking of which, this place is a bit like Tumbledown Alley.

In the night, the dirty path stretches in all directions, and all you can see is darkness as far as the eye can see.

The ground is littered with slag and other rubble, and the shops and houses on both sides of the street are all made of black rocks, built in strange shapes and random and irregular, like monsters with teeth and claws.

As for the shops themselves, they are all black magic shops.

In the window of one of the shops closest to Aven were shrunken human heads, lined up in rows.

The faces of the heads are painted with different oil paints, waiting for customers to choose.

Outside the house next to the shop hung a corpse, scarred and brutally peeled off.

Evan looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't tell what kind of creature it was.

It looked a bit like a human, a dismembered corpse, but with two large horns on its head.

Dark red blood and unknown slime slowly descended down the corpse, landing on the ground with a crackling, snapping sound.

It was the only sound Evan had heard, and there was no sound in this terrible town.

It's late at night, but it's still unusual.

There was a deathly silence around them, and even the sound of the wind stopped here.

At the end of the alley, figures swayed, and several wizards with hoods quickly walked by, proving that there were still living people here.

But no one dared to speak, and even held their breath, for fear of waking up some terrible monster.

"Professor, this is Newmengard?" Evan whispered, "It looks like a dark wizard colony." ”

"This is a small town on the outskirts of Newmondgaard, known as Fort Gad. Dumbledore said, leading Aven down an alley, "When Gellert's power was at its strongest, he built Newmengard as a symbol of his evil rule, the strongest fortress of the dark forces, many dark wizards and greedy people attached to it, most of them did not have the strength and qualifications to join Gellert's army, but he did not drive them away, but allowed them to remain outside Newmontgard." Eventually, it developed into the town in front of you. After Gellert's defeat, the town was not abolished, but instead became the largest gathering point of dark wizards in Germany. ”

"Does the German Ministry of Magic care?" said Evan in surprise, "They let the Dark Wizards gather here?"

"Existence is justified, Aven, we all hate the dark arts and oppose the use of those evil spells, but that doesn't mean that everyone is like that, and it is impossible to erase a magic that has been passed down for thousands of years. Dumbledore said, "Well, it's like Tumbledown Alley and the Underworld in England, you've been there, and the Ministry of Magic has allowed them to exist, but they can't cross the line. ”

Indeed, the wizarding world is not simply black and white, nor is it as simple as Hogwarts, there are school rules that clearly prohibit students from learning black arts, and everyone thinks that it is a bad thing, and they resist it and do not talk about it publicly.

In a real magical society, the lines between good and evil are blurred.

Light and darkness blend with each other and exist with each other.

It is unrealistic to destroy all dark wizards and dark magic, and it is impossible to do it.

As long as they don't do illegal and evil things, there is no reason for the Ministry of Magic to arrest them and sentence them.

But if it's not evil, is it still black magic?

Continuing down the alley, after passing a shop, Evan saw a tall and majestic building appear in front of him.

The building resembles a palace with tall towers, the most striking of which is the main tower in the center.

The main tower stands tall and stretches all the way to the clouds, with no end in sight, which is intimidating.

An atmosphere of mystery hung over it, which seemed to be a force, and those who gazed at it quickly shifted their gaze.

Truth be told, the building is nothing short of a miracle, a miracle built by Grindelwald.

Newmongard is located on an island in the middle of a lake, surrounded by a huge pool of black water, calm and deep.

The other dark wizards in the town seemed to be afraid of the lake and did not dare to approach it easily.

They hid in the dark doorway, and when they saw Dumbledore and Evan walking straight there, they all looked uncontrollably panicked.

What is hidden in this pool of calm black water that makes these dark wizards so afraid?

"That's the real wizarding prison Newmengard!" Dumbledore said simply.

Following the direction of his gaze, Evan looked at the pitch-black main tower, where Grindelwald himself was imprisoned, confessing his sins at the highest level.

The fact that he treated Keresis showed that he had a certain amount of freedom.

As a powerful dark wizard, it is almost impossible to control him completely.

So, Grindelwald was kept here, in a fortress of his own construction, completely out of his own volition.

But Evan still didn't quite understand that not everyone was Grindelwald and would voluntarily be imprisoned in this wizarding prison.

It's so close to the Dark Wizards' Gathering Place, what kind of protection does Newmengard have to ensure that no one escapes from prison?

Facing the main tower, the main building also stretches forward on the ground, taking on a symmetrical L-shape from each other.

The main body of the Neumungard building was stretched across most of the lake until it was built in front of them, where the gate of Neumungard was located.

As soon as Evan walked over, he saw a striking carving on it: For the greater good!
