Chapter 1032 Magic Circle

The boys worked even more efficiently than Pomona expected. Not only did they transform the kennel into a ballroom, they also changed the structure of the manor. The floor of the room above the study was concealed, from the first floor to the

The walls of the attic are filled with bookshelves filled with books, and the color of the walls has also changed to Tiffany blue. At first glance, it looks a bit like a Ravenclaw lounge.

But the most eye-catching thing is the huge astronomical telescope located in the center of the study. If it weren't made of brass, Pomona would have thought they had dismantled the telescope of the Muggle Observatory.

There are many star images floating around the telescope, and they rotate slowly along a fixed pattern.

The newly added furniture in the living room and study room are all neoclassical and look very elegant.

The previous fireplace was taller and wider, enough for two people to stand on it. There were two sculptures next to the fireplace, which were placed in the room occupied by plants.

The renovated room has excellent lighting and can be used as a living room. There are also porcelain in the cabinet, so you can have afternoon tea here.

"They are all copies." Severus said when Pomona visited the study. "I still have the original books here. It wouldn't be a pity to burn them."

Pomona glanced at him and touched the furniture that came from nowhere.

The living room and study are arranged to look like a Ravenclaw astrologer's home. The former studio is hidden, and the entrance is behind a bookshelf.

When Pomona opened the secret door and walked in, the light suddenly became dim. There were no windows on the four walls, and the light source was a candle. A map of the sinkhole hung on the wall in the middle. In addition, there were

There is an extra sand table. This sand table looks like the maze, but it only has three outer layers, and the middle is still shrouded in dark mist.

"This was done by the Dark Lord." Severus said from behind her. "He only entered the third floor."

She walked to the sand table silently.

The outermost layer of the maze was granite, and the entrance was a stone door just as Lyle Meyer remembered it, with solid earth behind it.

The second and third floors are water channels, and there are no entrances on the walls of the third and fourth floors, just like the walls and moats of a circular city.

"Is there a hidden entrance?" she asked.

"I don't think so." Severus said, "The crucible is not only the container in which it was made, but also its cage. This maze not only prevents people from outside from entering, but also prevents the things inside from escaping."

"Is there a fountain inside?"

"The Dark Lord said it looked like a garden with many roses in it." Severus gave her a white rose. "There was a famous alchemy book in the Middle Ages called "The Philosopher's Rose"

There is a blue rose at the entrance to the rose garden. Turn it to activate the entire maze. Before that, the magic circle cannot be entered."

"Okay then, what do we do next?"

After hesitating for a while, he said, "I will go back to England for two days, and you can continue to cultivate here."

"I'll go back with you..."

"Shh." He put his finger on Pomona's lips. "I'm not asking you. You stay here and rest for a while."

"but……"

"I originally thought that Quirrell was decomposed by the power of the Philosopher's Stone. The Philosopher's Stone can be said to be the original substance. It has the ability to decompose and reorganize, but in fact that is not the case." Severus stroked the back of his hand.

Her cheeks "Do you smell it?"

Pomona smelled her wrist and faintly smelled an unpleasant smell.

"Stop resisting him." Severus whispered. "I don't want anything to happen to you."

She was trembling all over.

There is a craftsman named Bowman Wright in the chocolate picture. After the Golden Snitch was listed as an endangered species, people began to look for another bird to replace the Golden Snitch in the Quidditch game. Bowman made a metal

The small ball completely simulated the flying method and flying characteristics of Jin Feixia. His invention was widely welcomed.

After his death, he left behind many parchment scrolls listing the details of orders he received from all over the world.

That gadget has memory and will remember the first person who touches it directly with their skin. You must wear gloves when releasing the Golden Snitch. Touching it through gloves does not count.

This is used to deal with controversial issues. It can identify the first person who touches it. For example, the golden snitch caught by Harry Potter for the first time almost swallowed it, so opening it again requires touching it with lips.

bump.

The rules of Quidditch also stipulate that only the seekers of both teams have the right to catch the snitch, and any other team member other than the seeker will commit a foul by touching the snitch.

When she put the Resurrection Stone in, Albus had told her that the little thing looked like the source of life. He showed her an ancient papyrus with a painting on it.

The winged sphere was flying over the garden, and there was a six-pointed star inside, which was a reflection of the fountain of life. After all, it replaced little animals like the Golden Snidget, and no innocent little life would die every time Quidditch was held.

Children chasing Jin Feixia is just like the monster chasing humans in the sinkhole. This is a kind of fun, but for Jin Feixia and the people who are chased by the monster, they don't think so.

They tried their best to escape, but the Quidditch players would form a complicated formation to stop it, and there were complicated passages in the sinkhole to prevent humans from escaping easily.

What is the source of life? What is the purpose of living? Why should we take a game so seriously?

Some people take the initiative to pursue this goal, just like seekers. Voldemort is one of them, but he has never ridden a broom.

Albus lived for more than 150 years, and he also realized it after losing. He lost Arianna, but wanted to resurrect her. He originally did not believe that magic could resurrect people, but his belief was shaken after Voldemort was resurrected.

, so he put on the cursed ring.

Don't make the wrong decision, sometimes it will not only cost you your life, but may even lead to catastrophic consequences.

She nodded tremblingly, and Severus smiled and kissed her forehead.

"Good girl." He praised, "I will come back to accompany you after I finish my work over there. You can stay here for the next two days."

"Are you going back tonight?"

"There are still some things that haven't been done. I'll leave tomorrow morning."

"He mentioned the seven metals, arranged in the order of heaven. Do you know what he was talking about?"

"It was a fragment written by an Ethiopian. It was called Autumn Nostrum. It was very famous in the Middle Ages. It talked about how to make the Philosopher's Stone and Sun Gold." Severus said, "But

Most people think it's more symbolic than practical."

"Do you think his idea is correct? If he is wrong, my face will be ripped off and placed on the wall of the maze."

"We have no other choice. The villagers of Parodo gave up looking for the 'Golden Fleece' and became therapists, but we must get the piece of gold. Freud said that if a person does not make great efforts,

There is no way to get rid of the shadow of childhood. We come from the quagmire, but we will not sink in the quagmire. This is our chance to get rid of everything."

"We can't be so selfish..."

"We almost died once, do you remember?" Severus interrupted her, "I am not that old fool like Albus Dumbledore, sacrificing himself for people I don't know. Please stop saying those duplicitous words.

"Yes." Severus shook off her hand, "You are not that selfless, saying those words will make you look hypocritical."

After saying that, he left the secret room without looking back.

Pomona was left standing alone beside the maze, as if the veil had been removed and she had nothing to hide.
