Connor's Hogwarts

"My choice is..." Connor took a deep breath and said slowly:

"Do you have to choose that?" Connor muttered weakly.

"Of course, you have to make a choice." Ravenclaw obviously had no intention of joking with Connor, and was waiting for Connor's decision seriously.

Connor looked directly at the beautiful face of this old lady, feeling confused. He also recalled the shameful remarks he made to Gryffindor when he boasted about "who is more beautiful between me and Raven from the north of the city"...

In short, this choice is very strange. It seems that the three options are all "rewards", and each one is more attractive than the last, but it feels very strange to people.

Hanging gardens, who doesn’t want this? Connor had never heard of a second "floating city" in the magic world.

Although the stairs in the castle are floating all year round, and it seems that it is not difficult for wizards to make items float, in fact, there is really no second castle built in the air in the world.

Let a small island float in the air for thousands of years! Any wizard would be greedy for this kind of technology, let alone Connor, who has the "Infrastructure Mania" gene. Connor wanted it very much.

And Ravenclaw knowledge! This is very impressive once I hear it. If I get her knowledge, does it mean that one day I can build a similar hanging garden?

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish! Who doesn’t understand such a simple truth? Connor wants this so much!

There is also eternal life. Although Connor doesn't know if Ravenclaw is bragging, but if this is really true, then choosing this means that the first two are things that can be obtained in one's lifetime.

Although Connor thinks he is not interested in immortality, when the opportunity to truly live forever is presented to him, can he not be tempted? This can't be done! Connor really wants this too! !

These three choices all seem to be guaranteed to make money without losing money. The difference between the three choices seems to be only the length of harvest time. If you choose wealth, you can take over immediately; if you choose knowledge, you can harvest steadily; if you choose immortality, you will have everything you need in your lifetime.

But is the choice really that simple?

Connor did not forget that he was on the seventh floor of the stairs. Logically speaking, this should still be part of the "test", so couldn't this multiple-choice question be a trap? Or maybe I'm just overthinking it? Or maybe the other party predicted my prediction?

Ahhhhh! My brain hurts. Connor reached out to Facebook for some off-field support.

"I want you to make this decision for yourself."

Ravenclaw's words made Connor's hands freeze in the air. It's over. The invigilator is here. He can't cheat anymore.

Connor put down his hands in frustration. He pondered for a moment, and finally said:

"Then I choose the second one. I want knowledge."

This is Connor's favorite option. In fact, when he heard the three options, his first reaction was to choose this. After all, wealth is not very attractive to Connor, and eternal life is even more elusive. Connor actually didn't really believe it in his heart.

Since you can't tell whether there is a trap here, just follow your heart.

"Have you decided?" Ravenclaw still had no expression, as if it didn't matter no matter what choice Connor made.

"Yes, I've decided." Once he made a decision, Connor didn't hesitate. He just took it as it came and waited to see what happened.

"Then, as you wish."

Ravenclaw approached Connor, took his left hand again, then closed his eyes and muttered something.

Then the back of Connor's hand hurt. This familiar feeling. Could it be...

The pain disappeared instantly. Connor raised his left hand and found a second mark on the back of his left hand, a light blue mark several centimeters long. It was exactly the same as the mark left by Gryffindor at that time, one on the left and one on the right. It looks more and more like a Command Seal on the back of my hand.

The mark of knowledge inheritance? Is this the standard reward for this treasure chest game? Was what Gryffindor said back then about "my special reward" all a lie?

"You made the right choice."

"Eh?" What? Was this choice really wrong? Connor was stunned for a moment, and then heard Ravenclaw say:

"Well, good luck to you, Connor Lake."

The scene changed, and the Ravenclaw in front of him disappeared. What appeared in front of Connor was the huge door, and he returned to the stairs.

"Master!" "Smelly brat!"

Then two women...well, Artoria and Helena flew towards Connor.

"Master, you disappeared just now! No accident happened!" Arturia nervously grabbed Connor's hand. Because there was no magic painting interface, she was trapped in this stair space just now and couldn't go anywhere. , Artoria realized that the wizard had many tricks, and that she was not really invincible. If Connor could not come back, she might be trapped here forever.

"It's okay, I just talked about life with a beautiful aunt." Connor patted Artoria. With her by his side, Connor found a sense of security.

"Have you seen her!? Have you seen her!?" Helena said excitedly: "Where is she!? I'm going to find her!"

"Well, it's at the top of the island."

Before Connor could finish speaking, Helena rushed towards the door. She wanted to see Ravenclaw and didn't want to wait for a moment.

"pia~"

However, Helena failed to pass through the wall. She hit the door and flew back. She could not get through this door.

"What's going on!? Didn't you pass the test?" Helena said angrily.

"If you can go through this door, why don't you just go through the stone wall next to it? There are obviously restrictions."

Connor shook his head, stepped forward and put his hand on the door. The door was three to four meters high, and he didn't know if it could be pushed open. Connor just wanted to use force, but as soon as his hand touched the door, the door opened automatically.

"." Helena kept her head silent, not daring to look at Connor, and flew directly through the crack in the door. She didn't know whether she was too ashamed or really anxious.

"Really, are you in a hurry to reincarnate?" Connor complained, "Let's go, Saber, let's go up and have a look."

Connor and Artoria walked through the door together. In front of them was a long staircase that went straight up. When they looked up, they could see the light at the end, but Helena was long gone.

After passing through this ordinary long staircase, Connor once again came to the top of the floating island.

When we came out, we were in a building that looked like the entrance to an underground palace. There were several large pillars around it, supporting this temple-like hall. When we walked out of the hall, we saw a sea of ​​colorful flowers. It was early spring, with red and yellow flowers. Various types of blue, purple, and flowers that Connor couldn't tell were blooming in front of his eyes.

I have seen the scenery from the air before, but I realized its charm only after looking closer. So is it worthy of being called a "Sky Garden"?

On both sides of the sea of ​​flowers were grasslands, with forests and lakes in the distance, and behind it was the castle with its carved decorations. Connor noticed a faint shadow flying towards the tower at the top of the castle, that was Helena.

"Master, this place is so beautiful." Artoria was still immersed in the charm of the sea of ​​flowers in front of her.

I can feel the temperature of the sun and the breath of the wind, but it is very quiet here. There seems to be no shadow of animals, and I don't know how the ecosystem here works.

It's a beautiful yet deserted garden, just like Ravenclaw.

"It is indeed beautiful. It must be very comfortable to come here for vacation. Damn it... I regret it. It was almost, almost, this place belonged to me." Connor had mixed feelings in his heart, and his complicated mood was hard to describe.

"Eh? Why? Huh? Master, what's wrong with you?" Artoria wanted to ask more, but found that Connor, who was still talking just now, suddenly stopped responding. When she turned around, she found that Connor was stunned. There, he was motionless, as if he had been greatly stimulated.

"Master? Can you say something?"

For a long time, Connor stared at Artoria and said blankly:

"Saber...how are we going to go back..."

"Eh, eh??!"
