Chapter 1782 twist zone (1)

An ancient Egyptian proverb once said: There are only two animals in the world that can reach the top of the pyramid, one is the eagle and the other is the snail.

As long as it climbs up slowly and diligently like a snail, sooner or later it will be able to reach the commanding heights like an eagle, and look down at dusk or morning sun together with the "darlings" born to ride on the wind, bathing in the richness of golden light.

country.

The meandering Nile River turned into a small stream, and everything it passed was green, dotted with white sails. The livestock drinking water by the river looked as small as ants, and the smoke from the villages in the distance curled up.

No one believes that such a country will one day leave only ruins, prosperous cities abandoned by people, and eventually buried under the yellow sand.

But as Pharaoh Thutmose IV described on the "Dream Stele" erected between the claws of the Sphinx in the Giza Pyramid, sooner or later the sand covering the statue will be cleared away.

At that time, the Pharaoh was still as young as Horus. He celebrated his youth just like other Egyptian princes in their youth. He drove his chariot and ran as fast as the wind among the sand dunes, with his bow fully drawn.

Hunting lions and wild goats in the desert.

One day he was tired from hunting and wanted to take a nap, so he fell asleep under the shadow of the Sphinx. In his sleep, the Sphinx spoke to him, "Look at me, what kind of pain I am suffering, my body"

It is almost a pile of ruins, and the dust in the sky is always harassing and oppressing me. I know that you are my son and my protector, so come and get closer to me. I am with you, I am yours.

Wizard.

So the earliest "archaeological" excavation operation began. The prince ordered people to clean up the sand, and he also fulfilled another promise, repairing the Sphinx's claws and chest.

In the Salem case, people often talked about the "evil eye", which was believed to have the power to curse people. However, in ancient Egypt, the Eye of Horus represented resurrection and had the power to prevent evil spirits from taking the opportunity to be reborn.

In the British Museum, there are also several sculptures of pharaohs from the Old Kingdom. Their eyes are decorated with bronze and white crystal, which represents the powerful vitality of the pharaohs, shining like the sun.

Sina, a scholar in the Abbasid Empire, did not believe that the eyes had such magical functions because he did not believe that air was an organ but a medium.

It often plays little refraction tricks with light, deceiving human eyes and forming mirages, causing lost travelers to struggle for an oasis that does not exist.

When you choose to believe, even if it is false it will become true.

When you choose not to believe it, even if it is true, it will be regarded as false.

What you see with your own eyes does not mean it is true. It may be a trick of the great illusionist. Has the Statue of Liberty really disappeared? Or do you think it has disappeared?

Magic only blooms in the souls of a few.

But even wizards are sometimes less creative than Muggles.

This is a gift given by God to "mortals".

After dark, there was no light coming from the ceiling of the oval hall of the Richelieu Library, but the open ventilation window blew in the hot wind and the sound of traffic outside. Severus raised his wand.

, and closed them one by one.

Gong Saiyi and Susanna pushed the tables and chairs in the reading room aside, leaving an open space in the middle. Lucius Malfoy did not appear. After all, he was playing a Muggle now and was not suitable to appear in such a dangerous place.

.

No matter how much speculation and preparation there is, even if there are traps on other people's territory, they can only resort to tricks. Teams playing away games know that other people's home courts certainly have an advantage.

After setting up the "fighting arena", the three of them came to the center of the reading room together.

"You go upstairs." Severus said to the two of them, and then he took out a small dish with a red ointment found in Cuvier's office, and then heated it with magic flames.

Soon the red smoke filled the air like it was in the grotto between the subway, but it did not keep climbing. Instead, it stopped after reaching a certain position and spread to all directions. Soon the entire oval hall was filled with smoke.

The first floor was enveloped in red smoke.

The hall that originally glowed golden under the lights turned blood red, looking quite ominous. At this time, Severus took out the weather bottle produced by Weasley's Wish Shop and placed it between Florence and Athens.

The air outlet in the room, the best-selling weather bottle is used to make snowflakes indoors during Christmas, this one contains wind.

When the wind blew into the air outlet, there was no reaction at first. Then as the wind volume increased, the entire oval hall made a dull sound, as if a giant beast was about to wake up.

The old Richelieu Library also had a pneumatic transmission system. The original designer didn't know what secrets he left behind. Anyway, after this muffled sound, all the air outlets began to blow, and the resulting airflow caused the red smoke to continue to rise upwards.

, and finally reached the ceiling.

After the red mist hit the glass, the glass began to fall. The same thing happened in the grotto before, but the falling glass ball fell to the ground, broke into pieces, and released the silver scorpion inside.

But these glasses float in the air, slowly merging like water droplets, and eventually form a huge mirror.

"Be careful!" Susanna said from the bookshelf on the second floor.

Severus lowered his head and found many silver scorpions crawling out of nowhere, and they were running towards him in dense numbers.

He raised the wand and found that it was useless again, so he took off the gold and black silver bow, pulled the non-existent bowstring, and a transparent confusion spell fell into the scorpion.

These scorpions splashed out and started killing each other, and soon turned into "corpses", and then they turned into a pool of liquid like mercury, while the rubies on their backs that looked like eyes slowly rose up,

Until it touches the glass on the ceiling.

It transformed, from transparent glass to golden, as if turning stone into gold.

"The Philosopher's Stone." Gong Saiyi said, staring at the glass that turned into gold.

"Paris is Nicoléme's hometown." Severus said calmly, while using the confusion spell with ease to "kill" more scorpions.

"Did you know? The mirrors in ancient Egypt were all bronze mirrors." Gong Saiyi said, "Maybe they are not gold!"

"How about you take a piece off?" Susanna encouraged.

"Wait and see." Gongsei stared at Severus and said, "I want to see what happens later."

As if being pulled by an invisible force, the "mercury" gradually formed a silver mirror that was exactly the same size as the gold mirror above. The two mirrors faced each other, and countless double images appeared, looking like two transparent mirrors.

The tunnel of effect leads to the dark and deep distance.

When the last scorpion "died", they formed two perfect golden ovals, but nothing happened.

"What to do next?" Severus asked Gongsei.

"Uh~music?" Gong Saiyi said uncertainly.

"I'm asking you!" Severus said with a stiff face.

"How about a session?" Gongsei said to Susanna. "Like a priestess."

"Me? No!" Susanna screamed. "Why would I do that!"

"Why are you here?" Gong Saiyi roared.

"I can call the police and arrest you." Susanna said with a frown.

"You can try." Gong Saiyi said sarcastically.

"That's enough." Severus said before Susanna could say something back. "Help me see if there are any clues?"

"I can still use magic normally." Susanna used the levitating spell to levitate a book. "I don't have red mist here."

"Remember when we were in the Louvre?" Gongsei said eagerly, "I have a scarab amulet and can use magic normally."

"Don't come in." Severus warned in the red mist, "I don't know what this mist is for yet!"

Gong Saiyi looked at the oval space made of red mist, said something in French to Susanna, and then jumped in.

The red fog made visibility very low, and Gongsei used a fluorescent flash to illuminate Severus' face.

"Look." Gong Saiyi said happily, "It works."

"What is your plan?" Severus said coldly.

"I don't know." Gong Saiyi said excitedly, "This is really amazing."

"Try if you can leave." Severus said, but Gongsei obviously didn't listen. He ran over to look at the wooden tables and chairs shrouded in fog, which were turning into metal.

Just like the first lesson in magic, you have to turn a match into a needle.

Severus stared at Gong Saiyi's back and whispered something.

During World War II, there was an American general who said he would rather face two German divisions than have one French division behind him.

Perhaps Severus was "greeting" like Justin's grandfather who participated in the Dunkirk evacuation at this moment.

At this moment, there was suddenly a burst of music.

Lacrymosa dies illa,

On this day of weeping,

qua resurgent ex favilla

The criminal who will be tried,

judicandus homo reus.

will rise from the ashes,

Huic ergo parce Deus,

Lord, please forgive him,

pie Jesu Domine,

Lord, merciful Jesus,

dona eis requiem!

Please grant him eternal rest
