Vol 2 Chapter 744: Owl ghost

The light from the three wands is negligible in the endless darkness, and they are swallowed up late at night.
By the time Elvin's eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, he saw the huge black fortress that appeared in front of him.
Known as the Owl Fortress, the tall, sturdy granite buildings stand quietly on the cliffs above the valley, overlooking the visitors in a majestic manner, as if they are crumbling. The original builders of the castle deliberately chose such a dangerous place to magically blend the entire fortress with the cliff.
This is a miracle, and everyone who sees it is moving.
Undoubtedly, such a miracle, while shocking, produces inexplicable awe from the depths of the heart.
The huge fort was reinforced by magic, and the central spire was high, and it was strange that there were no windows.
The walls are covered with strange vines, they are tightly wound, and they are intricately connected with huge stones, forming the main outline of the castle.
A mysterious atmosphere enveloped around it, with an evil atmosphere, and people who stared at it quickly turned their attention.
"This castle has been cast a lot of protection spells. Only the wizard can find it. It is the very famous magical landscape of Dijon." Jelena said, looking at the fortress in the distance, "I have seen it in the past, thousands of The transparent owl ghost looks at you quietly, sinister, making people feel uncomfortable, as if there is something bad to happen."
"Well, look at the past!" Avon said, he can clearly feel the magic, the power of unknown.
The three of them appeared in a phantom and appeared at the gate of the castle.
The door was closed and blocked by the boulder, but the wall next to it was rudely opened with an irregular mouth for people to come in and out.
Following this entrance, three uninvited visitors drilled into the castle.
Inside is a huge square hall. There is nothing but a variety of on the ground. For hundreds of years, this fortress has been visited by countless visitors who hold various purposes. It was ruined.
"It's ridiculous than I thought," Sirius said, looking around.
"It’s the same from top to bottom. There is nothing bare. No one knows what it was like. The greedy guys have already robbed this castle and left nothing.
Elena explained. "They don't care whether there is a curse on the things inside, as long as they are worth the money, and the remaining valuable items are moved to the museum in Paris by the Ministry of Magic."
In Europe, there are many castles abandoned like this, standing quietly in the fields as witnesses to the history of the past.
If the owner of the castle has money, they may be protected as artifacts or reused as a private resort or hotel.
If there is no one to control, then they are so ruined. The Muggle government will take out a part of the funds every year to maintain and maintain the castle, to ensure that they do not collapse, but the Ministry of Magic does not have this.
Having a castle is a big burden, and it is no exception to the family of pure blood wizards who are fading.
It is said that in addition to the huge manor, the Malfoy family also has such an old castle in a certain area of ​​England. It is managed by dozens of house elves, but the pure-blooded wizard family like them is only a minority.
"Although there is nothing here, but the place is very big, the owl monsters are hidden here, it is really difficult to find, we are not enough people, can not search the entire fortress at the same time," said Elena.
"I believe it will come out, come out and take the initiative to find us." Ai Wen continued to ask, "What about those owl ghosts?"
"Oh, you will see them, they usually don't appear near the door." Elena shook her wand, and the end of the wand glowed brighter, saying, "The owl ghosts are definitely not as simple as they seem. How do you say, they are like human beings, acting in accordance with the human trajectory, very strange, isn't it? Well, if you think of the dungeon, I remember going there, the kitchen has access to the basement, I was Just look up afar."
They walked straight through the doorway, not up the stairs, but in the narrow passageway on the first floor, they went all the way to the basement.
This feeling reminds Ai Wen of the maze, and it is never certain that there is something waiting for them behind a closed door.
When they came to the kitchen through the dark ramp, Avon finally saw the owls.
Their bodies are transparent milky white, as Elena said, they don't fly in the air like a normal owl or look for food or something, but stand quietly on the ground like a human.
They live according to the habits and trajectories in front of them, and there is a slight sadness on the tiny faces.
After Ivan, Sirius, and Elena entered the kitchen, the owls were not close, just watching them quietly.
This feeling is really uncomfortable.
"Look, this is why I don't like this place. I have seen ghosts, but I have never seen such a ghost." Elena whispered, for fear of alarming them. "We better be careful, I can feel it, They can understand our words."
"It's a bit strange. I've never seen this kind of thing. They have magical fluctuations on them. It seems to be a kind of soul magic, which reminds me of what I saw in an ancient magic book," Avon said.
He thought for a moment, and the owl had gone away recently, ready to test the magic he saw.
"What the is this kid?" Elena looked at the back of Ai Wen and said to Sirius. "It’s too strange. He seems to know a lot of magic. Say, what are you going to do, with this? A little wizard is running around"
Sirius did not speak, nor did he return to the other party's question. He didn't even look at Jelena.
In his eyes, this woman is definitely not a qualified Auror.
Although the personal strength is not bad, and it looks very beautiful, but the personality is too casual, and there is no brain, do not understand what is cautious, she said too many words along the way, almost telling everything to Ai Wen.
What should be said, should not be said, all said!
If they are black wizards such as the Death Eaters, this woman is estimated to be unlucky!
She probably forgot all about what Moody had told her at the beginning. Is she the Auror? !
Listening to the words of Elena’s chattering, Sirius has an impulse to block her mouth with something.
