Vol 2 Chapter 699: Miser

Finally Luna and Allen came to the door of the room that was always locked.
"The door of this room is locked, and there is no spell or thing that can be cracked to open it." Allen said, "According to Dumbledore, there is a power in it that is stronger than death, better than human wisdom, better than death. The power of nature is more magical and terrifying. He thinks that this is perhaps the most mysterious of the many subjects that need to be studied in the Department of Mysteries. According to him, Harry Potter has all the energy in that room. But Voldemort didn't have anything—is he implying that this is the power of love?"
Luna's hand touched the door lock, and the blue streamer flashed on the door. Luna pushed it gently and the door opened.
A fountain greeted Allen's eyes directly, with a steady stream of mother-of-pearl luster gurgling, and spiraling steam enveloped the fountain. He seemed to smell the ink scent of library books and some decadent scents, Luna's fresh body scent mixed with the sweet scent of pudding, and the kind of scent produced when magical energy was gathered... (Author's Note: This locked room on the Wiki is called the Hall of Love. It is said that JK Rowling said in an interview that there was a fountain of ecstasy.)
"The ecstasy fountain, what do you smell?" Allen judged with certainty, he was a little curious about what Luna could smell and whether there was his smell.
"Of course it smells of you." Luna also sniffed vigorously, and then explained: "The door I blocked with divine power can't be opened with ordinary magic. This ecstasy fountain can be thought by the wizards outside the door. The power of love is in the room."
"The energy of love is actually correct in a certain sense. This room is actually the power of belief. A strong belief can make you distort and change the real reality. Love is also a kind of belief, and I use The main part is the faith part, but this area of ​​divine power is of little use to you. If you want to gain something in this room, you have to find your own way." Luna opened her hands and let go While feeling the power of faith contained in the air,
people who forget their inner world will forget their own value of existence. The inner world is a supplement to the outer world, and we must discover it and perfect it. If we If we can’t always make a journey of our minds to find this kind of value, then we will truly lose our path."
Allen ignored the ecstasy and looked at the room, but he did not find any further information. He had no clue.
"This is different from other rooms. You can't accumulate learning by time. You may understand it right away, or you may not understand it for a lifetime. Let's go first." Luna moved lightly and bypassed the ecstasy with Allen. At the fountain, Luna stood in front of a wall, her skirt was lightly raised, and she turned and reached out to Alan.
Although Alan didn't know why, he also put his hand on Luna's hand and held her hand in the palm. At the moment when the two of them clasped their hands tightly, Allen found that the wall behind Luna became nothingness, as if there was a water wave on the wall, Luna took Allen’s hand and walked towards the wall, like a ghost, As Allen passed through the wall, they came to another room.
The silver ceiling reflects this luxurious room with ivory and gold walls and polished agate stone floors. Two statues, one black and one white, about ten feet tall stand on both sides of the center of the room, and in the middle are statues exactly like the Ravenclaws in the Ravenclaw common room.
The white statue has three-dimensional features like a chisel and axe. This long silver hair sets off the perfect face and moving gray eyes. She is dressed in a moonlight transparent gauze, which looks solemn, gentle and noble. And mature, the entire statue seems to be like a moon phase cycle, and its brilliance is slowly changing either brilliantly or dimly. A pair of women's eyes are surrounded by seven silver four-leaf clover signs placed on the pedestal, which is the holy symbol of the statue.
The other was dressed in a large black robe and an ink feather mask on his face. The dense black feathers flowed from his face into the depths of the hood. When Alan looked at her, the statue did not speak. , But Allen could feel her singing, full of sadness and loss. The holy symbol on her pedestal was a black disk with a blue-purple outer ring.
The temperament of the two statues is very different, as if they are the opposite of light and darkness. Three mithril boxes inlaid with gold wires were placed at the feet of the three statues.
Luna let go of Ellen’s hand, she turned around, and Ellen found out that the wall behind them was built by large and small rugged rectangles, and Luna put the layer on her neck. The cascading large homemade necklaces were taken off, and a carrot-shaped pendant on the necklace was inserted into one of the depressions. In an instant, the masonry of the entire wall was rearranged, and the treasure chests under the two goddess statues began to separate together with the floor. Panning to both sides, a cellar door made of Mithril appeared in their position just now.
Allen opened the hidden door after removing the treasure chest under the white statue. Under the light of the room, the golden streamer flashed. Allen squinted. It was Nether's scroll: "All you have?"
"All together, fifty." Luna's voice sounded behind Alan, and Alan leaned over and held them in his hand. On the thin gold leaf of the Nether scroll, the silver magic writing slowly moved like alive. , A scroll weighs no more than one pound. These scrolls are not heavy in Allen’s hands, but the weight of the knowledge contained in them is incomparable: "I can’t put them back to the tower in advance, otherwise you are a first-year If you find them when you start reading, you will be crazy."
At this time, Luna walked to the hidden door after the other treasure chest was removed. After opening the hidden door, a bright crystal refracted the indoor light, bright and dazzling, while some dim shadows moved on the surface.
This magic device looks a lot like a crystal ball. It is a large bright crystal of the same height as a person. Under the action of Luna's Levitation Charm, it floats out of the dark grid together with a gorgeous pedestal to fix this perfect spherical device. It fell on the indoor floor.
"This is a Miser core (), but it has been damaged. The function of the intact Miser core is very simple. It will directly connect the magical primitive energy to the entire area of ​​influence, which allows wizards to create accurate Magic items do not require expensive materials and the use of magical constancy. If there is no secret Serenity core, Netheril may not be able to reach the peak of its magical power." Luna gently wiped the bright crystal, "The touch is intact. The Miser energy core is deadly. Any creature that touches the device will be instantly killed, which cannot be avoided by any means. Any item, even magic items, will be dissociated immediately except for the pedestal below it. , And any undead creatures that come into contact with the Misser core will be destroyed immediately-eventually assimilated into a part of the original magic. After you read the Nether scroll, refer to this damaged core, you should be able to create it yourself The new one is here, but I can’t walk to the end on this road. You can only help when you read it. You have to make it yourself."
Allen recalled its function, and then pondered the situation of the current famous mountain: "Now it’s not the era when you can cut off the peaks at will and turn them around to build cities, but let Hogwarts Castle together How about the surrounding Black Lake Forbidden Forest and the Hogsmeade Village flying into the sky to build a floating city like a school city? In addition to the curriculum reform, Hogwarts is the best magic school in the world. It shouldn't be something other magic schools can challenge."
"Well, then Helga will be happy. You can get them back to the tower first. I will stay here to do the finishing work and close the door again. We will meet in the office later. We are lucky. This one is the most common one. The smallest size is as tall as a person, but it's almost 500 pounds with the base. Fortunately, it doesn't take up too much space. The Misser Energy Core is said to be the size of a city."
When Alan returned to the office, Luna was already half-lying and half-sitting on the chair. She seemed to have drawn a few research notes from the silent predecessors on the shelf and was reading them at will.
"These research materials are all speculations out of thin air. Some are a little reliable, and some are completely irrelevant. These materials are of little use for reference." Luna threw a notebook on the table at random and picked up a new one. Turning a page carelessly, "However, looking at this power from the perspective of a wizard who cannot master this power may help us avoid misunderstandings of thinking."
"Just like Hermione was born as a Muggle but participated in the Muggle Research Division, she said that she can understand how Muggles are viewed from the perspective of a wizard." Allen also pulled out the chair and sat down. He took Luna just now. The research note left on the table was opened and read, "Even if it is not the correct knowledge, from another perspective, there is still learning value-as long as we can distinguish it."
At this moment, Sol Kroc rubbed his stiff neck, his eyes sleepy. After realizing that he had just fallen asleep, he suddenly widened his eyes, looked up, and saw that Allen and Luna were sitting across from him, flipping through the information, and his body relaxed. Allen put down the notes in his hand and nodded to him, Saul smiled awkwardly: "Sorry, maybe I was too late to study last night, I actually fell asleep."
"It's okay, Mr. Crocker, we are going to have lunch. We won't come over for other business in the afternoon. Do we want to go together?" Allen and Luna looked at each other and stood up to say goodbye.
"No, no, I'll send you off." Saul Crocker also got up quickly. Unlike Alan and Luna, he can leave at any time. He has no background behind him. He has to wait until the end of get off work to leave—in fact Saul Crocker, who regards the work of the Silent Man as a pleasure, does not regard it as a burden. If it is not forbidden by regulations, he even intends to live in the Department of Mysteries on the ninth floor of the Ministry of Magic.
Of course, in Thor's heart, the less time Allen and the others stay here, the better, and it's better not to be interested in it at all.
Allen and Luna didn't refuse Saul Kroc's kindness to send them out, after all, he would be more worried if they were not allowed to send them.
Saying goodbye to the old silent man in the round room, the simple black door had just opened, and Penello, who had arms around his chest and one leg bent, stepped on the corridor wall, put his foot down and walked over quickly. "Allen." Her condensed face showed Alan a gorgeous smile, and then nodded to Luna.
Mother Wolf, Victor, Fatty, and the doctor stood side by side behind her, greeting Ellen and Luna neatly.
"You have been waiting for a long time?" Allen asked, "Even if you can't enter the Department of Mysteries due to the rules, you can notify me with a stamp."
"Can't you interrupt your work? I heard that the research on Silent Man is very dangerous. Ellen, since you and Luna are both officials of the Ministry of Magic and are in such an important department, I will apply for me and some of them. As your guards, plus the fact that the Aurors have already stationed in Hogwarts and started to defend the school. This way they can follow you even if school starts later." Penello's red lips were pursed and his expression was a little complacent, since I heard Lu After Na planned to become a silent person, she came up with this plan. Although she has to be responsible for protecting the umbrella company's red umbrella department and cannot follow at any time like other members, she can at least follow Ellen in her spare time instead of being like As in the previous two years, there was more and less separation.
"Master, Miss Lovegood, Longeye has been sent to protect the Muggle Prime Minister, and Four Eyes is in charge of the werewolf research in the mansion laboratory, so this time the guards are only four of us and Miss Kriwatt. Master and Low Naturally, Miss Fugood’s strength does not need to be protected by us, but please don’t dislike it. Please don’t hesitate to tell me if you have anything. Recently, Death Eaters have tried many kidnappings and attacks on other wizards, although almost all of them have been frustrated. But if you encounter such troublesome trivial matters, let us deal with it.
The wolf mother is obviously still worried about the previous Ministry of Magic battle, even after the return of Allen, their umbrella team was rewarded by Owen justifiably. The official body of a Ministry of Magic armed Auror squad captain did not relieve this~EbookFREE.me~ Judging from the now-obsessed expressions of the fat man, he knew that they had been severely practiced during this time.
"Speaking of the mansion, I almost forgot about her. How is Dolores? Are you still alive?" Allen thought of Dolores Umbridge who was captured at the beginning of the night of the Ministry of Magic. It hasn't been anxious to deal with her affairs.
"I have been imprisoned in an underground jail, but because Alan, you haven't said anything about it, we have never done anything to her, just let her eat and drink in it... Do you want to get rid of her?" Penello I didn’t like her in the Ministry of Magic before, and after listening to Emily’s description of Umbridge’s attitude towards Muggles and werewolves, she became even more disgusted. Now she has misunderstood Alan’s meaning and she has both eyes Shine up.
"Hmm... I just haven't figured out how to deal with her. To be honest, her attitude towards me is pretty good..." Allen feels a bit embarrassed now, just let it go and feel unwilling, let her squat in Azkaban. , The dementor has rebelled against Voldemort’s camp, the Ministry of Magic has not had time to clean up, and if she is only in jail, it doesn’t seem to make her feel better. After all, the purpose of arresting her back to the mansion instead of the Ministry was to get the mood. Okay, but if you kill it directly, the other party's attitude towards yourself is still respectful after all, and it won't be enough.
"Keep it closed for now. I'll deal with her in a while." Allen noticed Penello's disappointed expression and added unbearably, "Don't kill her, don't drive her crazy, you can treat her as you please."
Noting the doctor's envious eyes that the doctor was afraid to say because of the existence of the wolf mother, Allen sighed: "Remember to bring the doctor with you when you go... She can ensure this."
