Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 177 News of the Ruins

Lean and Andra just sat in the facade of the former gangster and finished this delicious lunch.

"Clean up"

Andra took out her wand and cast a cleaning spell on the pots and pans.

"Sometimes magic comes in handy, too."

Then he put the pots and pans into his pocket again, patted his stomach, and began to read the "Daily Prophet" that Lien brought over.

Lien looked at Andra, who was sitting on the small cool chair with her legs crossed, reading the newspaper, who looked like a retired old man, and was a little speechless.

But he didn't continue to bother Andra, but patted his butt and walked to the lockbox.

"Password Discovery"

Although the unlocking spell cannot open the lockbox, Lean can use spells to know the password of the lockbox.

This is also a spell from the Book of Ten Thousand Laws. It is simple and practical, because all the impractical ones were abandoned by Rion.

"Maybe I can publish a magic book in the future, which will definitely bring me great prestige."

Lean whispered, and went downstairs to call Andra.

After all, this is Andra's territory. According to the law, everything found here belongs to its owner, which is Andra.

"Ah, Zell, you're here. I knew that idiot Lockhart would fall, and I have to say, it's really great. You don't know, after I saved him before, he pulled me and talked about it for a long time Dealing with vampires..."

"I think I know the code."

"what?"

"The combination to the safe upstairs."

"Nice job dude, you've got half of it."

"Thank you."

Hearing that Lien already knew the password, Andra didn't even want to read the newspaper, and hurriedly dragged Lien to the safe on the third floor.

For such a long time, he was also very curious about what was inside.After all, things worth keeping in a safe must be extremely precious.

Lean stood in front of the safe, typing the password he had discovered using spells on the keyboard with both hands.

"Drip ~ cluck."

The electronic sound and the sound of the secret door opening sounded successively.

"Quickly, open it and have a look, it must be something good." Andra said impatiently.

Lean pulled the door panel open with curiosity.

The cabinet is divided into three layers, with several medical kits and a stack of documents on the top layer.

There were dozens of gold bars on the middle layer, and Andra swallowed with a "gulp".As a Muggle-born, he had never seen so much money.

But when the two of them saw the things on the bottom floor, they couldn't help taking a breath.There were five automatic rifles, the exact models of which Rian couldn't tell.

"Rifle? Why does this small gang have such a thing?" Andra couldn't help but took out a gun from inside, and played with it in his hand.

Of course, no clips were loaded.

"Looking at the style, it should be modified. Look at this bullet, my God, it's full power."

Andra pulled the paper bag with bullets beside it a few times, revealing the yellow-orange bullets inside.

"Zell, let's discuss. I can ask for less guns, but can you give me more gold? I can give up the medical kit."

Of course, Lean couldn't wish more. For gold, which he has a lot of, guns, which are extremely difficult to buy, are the things he wants most.

"All the gold is yours, and all the guns are mine, how about it?"

"That...can you leave me a pistol? I keep it for self-defense."

"Sorry, self-defense is no longer a reason to legally own a firearm."

While talking and laughing, Lean handed Andra a pistol, along with two clips and a box of bullets.

"Thank you, by the way, you can also take a gold bar. After all, traveling alone, you must bring some money with you."

"Then I'll take it."

The two stood in front of the safe, dividing up all the contents inside.

Andra, who had won a lot of gold bars, looked very excited, and said that she would take Lien to try the local barbecue tonight.

"Although their barbecue is not as good as mine, it tastes exotic, and overall it's pretty good."

Andra stopped reading the newspaper, and dragged Lien to talk.

Speaking of happy things, he also took Lien to see the information he had collected over the years.

"Well, let me tell you that there is a secret here. Look at the buildings painted on the murals, which are completely different from the ancient Egyptian buildings known today."

Andra showed Lean a picture of the mural she had taken, and kept pointing with her fingers when she was happy.

"Here, each room in the mural has a square floor with a garden embedded in it, and the door of each room is also a cylinder, which is very strange..."

Andra, who was immersed in her own world, didn't notice the shock in Lean's eyes at all.

Ryan couldn't believe what he saw.

The mural on the photo is obviously the huge city in the ruins he explored before.

"Hell, how could there be here?"

"What did you say?"

Andra asked suspiciously. He seemed to have heard Lien whisper something just now.

"I'm saying, you're amazing."

"Of course, but I thought about these murals for a long time, but I didn't understand them. But this is just a scene on my way to find ancient Egyptian culture, and the next thing is really amazing."

"When I was exploring a ruin in Greece, I accidentally found a military diary. According to that diary, I found this place."

As she spoke, Andra blushed, stood up excitedly, danced and said, "There must be something buried here, for sure."

"By the way, Lean, you can also stay and help me find it. The two of us will definitely make a big discovery."

"Sorry, I already have plans for this trip." Rein said, pretending to be casual and picking up the photo of the mural.

"By the way, where was this photo taken? It's strange for me to look at the building above. I want to see it too if I drop by."

"It's in a cave in Iceland. I don't remember the details. I found it by accident when I went there to visit a scholar who studied ancient Egypt. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I just asked casually. And it's not on the way, so I won't go."

Lien said with a smile, but he was already planning to go to Iceland for the next stop.

"Hmm, but if you want to go to that ghostly place, you'd better wear more clothes. And the place is not very peaceful. I heard that snow tigers are flooding Iceland again this year."

The snow tiger is a magical animal unique to Iceland. It is powerful. Under normal conditions, it needs three adult wizards to fight against it. In a snowstorm, its strength will be increased. Its skin, fur, meat, bone, and blood all have great effects. Medicinal value.

However, there are only about two to three hundred wizards in Iceland, and they can't help the growing snow tiger race, and the living space is constantly compressed by the snow tigers.

If it weren't for the fact that the International Wizarding Conference sends wizards to clean up some of the snow tigers every year, it is still unknown whether the Icelandic wizards can survive.
