Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Among them, the shortest one is not as tall as Ivan.
But this is not his focus, Ivan is looking for what he wants on these obelisks.
The star obelisk is also covered with red spots, but there are no rules to be found.Unlike the Obelisk of the Sun and the Obelisk of the Moon, there is no red crystal column on the Obelisk of the Stars, but the tops of the smaller obelisks around it are made of red crystal...
Apparently, the magic works differently on each of the three obelisks.
"Evan, what do you think these red crystal pillars mean?" Lavier asked, leaning over, "There are no such things on normal obelisks."
"I haven't figured it out yet, but it's obviously very unusual." Ivan said.
He was afraid of scaring Laviere, so he didn't say what he had guessed just now.
"Those wizards think it's part of alchemy." Lavier said, "In alchemy, aren't crystals often used? Wizards often use crystals to conduct or store magic power, don't they?"
"Well, there is indeed such a saying!" Ivan nodded.
Crystal is a very common magic material, and red crystal has other special meanings.
It is indeed very common in alchemy, whether it is making alchemical items or performing material conversion.
It is said that a lot of crystals are needed to make the Sorcerer's Stone, but what does this have to do with the obelisk in front of you?
"I just heard from other wizards that those ancient Egyptian wizards probably planned to use these crystal pillars to infuse magic power into the marks on the obelisk, that is, the marks in the shape of the sun, moon and stars, and then activate them. Hidden magic." Lavier said in a low voice, "They are discussing how to infuse magic power into the crystal, you should think about it quickly, don't be underestimated by those goblins!"
Ivan didn't care whether he would be underestimated by the goblin, he thought about the guesses Lavier had heard.
Is it possible to directly infuse magic power into the crystal, but how to do it?
If these wizards had the unrefined Philosopher's Stone, they could do this.
But for sure, they don't have the Philosopher's Stone.
Ivan also didn't see where the Sorcerer's Stone was placed, could it be the magic altar in the middle of the three obelisks.
He looked there, and in the middle was an area paved with green jade.
The central position is slightly raised, and complex magic runes and patterns of the sun, moon and stars are engraved on it.
It seems to have something to do with the three obelisks, but it is definitely not used to place the Philosopher's Stone.
In the ruins of the school's Forbidden Forest Swamp, Aiwen saw how ancient warlocks used the Sorcerer's Stone.
The "silent" magic and magic altar there are completely different from the one in front of you.
Since the Sorcerer's Stone cannot be used, how can it be possible to infuse magic into the crystal.
However, Ivan agrees that these red crystals should be used to transmit other things.
That is to say, the main body of the obelisk is covered with red and black lump marks, blood...
Chapter 1200 Excavation Area No. [-] and Entry
"It may not be magic power, but blood!"
Aiwen spoke out his guess about the use of blood to activate the three obelisks.
"Well, you mean blood? I tried it, but it didn't work. Blood was often used to break ancient Egyptian curses. Mr. Djoser immediately thought of blood." Lavier said in a low voice, "He even used Human blood is also useless."
Has human blood been used?This is exactly what Ivan thought of before.
But the goblin Zoser had tried it, and the other wizards seemed to have tried it, to no avail.
Is the blood used unqualified, or is it not as simple as simply smearing blood on the obelisk.
Aiwen continued to observe the obelisk of the sun. The red crystals on it are in the shape of a column, which is like a pipe from bottom to top, but these crystals are not real pipes, and the interior is not hollow, so it is impossible to transport blood and the like liquid.
The purpose of the crystal can only be used to transmit magic power. Considering the spots on the obelisk, it may be some special magic power...
The question goes back to the original point, how to instill magic power on the obelisk.
These red crystals all extend to the ground. Could there be something hidden under the stone slab of the obelisk?
Aiwen wanted to see what was below, but he was not fully sure that neither the Egyptian Magic Bar nor Gringotts would agree to lift the slate.
Like a powerful and unconstrained style, in order to pour magic power into the obelisk to activate the magic on it, the alchemists thought of many ways.
There are many things that Ivan has never thought about, but in his opinion, probably none of them will work.
He recorded the ancient runes and magic correspondences on the three obelisks, and prepared to go back and study them slowly.
The script used by ancient Egyptian wizards is the oldest rune, which is also hieroglyphic.
It is very different from the various ancient magic texts that Ivan is familiar with based on the ancient Greek civilization, and has no connection.
During the process of transcribing, he noticed that some runes and the magic record on the cover of the "Book of Abraham" were repeated, indicating that they were products of the same age, and there might be a way to decipher them in the "Book of Abraham".
This possibility is very small, and Ivan himself is not sure, and he doesn't know how many years it will take to study.
However, he still insisted on his original judgment.
The three obelisks were a symbol of uncleanness, and the red and black spots on them were bloodstains, and this secret room made him uncomfortable.
None of the alchemists could solve it, but the goblin Raffle, who deliberately belittled Aiwen and quarreled with the pendulum, the witch he hired from Italy looked confident, as if he had some important clues.
She didn't say it, and didn't even look at Ivan.
Under the inquiry of Zhong Pendulum and other goblins, she just said that she still needs to study and research, and will announce the results in a few days...
Judging from everyone's expressions, it seemed that everyone thought she was bragging.
Next, Ivan followed the pendulum and other people in the excavation team to the area they were responsible for.
This is the space that adventurers discovered after destroying a wall not long ago. It is a hidden passage. The front is blocked by landslide rocks. There are still some magic mechanisms that need to be cracked. The current main task of the excavation team is to clear these stones .
No wonder the pendulum will let Benny join, the general excavation team will not want a half-giant...
Whether it is clearing stones or cracking the curse in the passage, Aiwen is not good at it. It is not helpful for him to stay here, and the pendulum does not let them stay here. He gave Aiwen and the other four alchemists. The task is to crack the alchemy mechanism on the obelisk as soon as possible.
Even if it can't be completely cracked, at least some clues or certain ideas must be found.
The time left for them is one month. If there is no other way, they will leave the excavation team.
Judging by the appearance of the pendulum, it is a question of whether they can give them the agreed rewards. Of course, if someone can crack the mechanism on the obelisk or find important clues before Ralph's excavation team, the pendulum may promise a high amount of money. award……
There is still more than a month before the start of Hogwarts. Ivan does not intend to spend all his time here. He also wants to go back and find out what Voldemort and the others are planning to do in the near future. Therefore, he will stay in Egypt for a month at most. .
As for whether he can get paid or not, he doesn't care, he didn't come to the sun ruins to make money.
Perhaps because of his young age, the four alchemists looked down on Aiwen very much and didn't discuss it with him very much.
Not to mention, the mechanism on the three obelisks is really difficult. Aiwen can only guess so far. He can't even understand the text and spell runes on it. Spend too much time there.
In this case, Aiwen naturally has little interest in cracking the obelisk.
The next day, he went alone to the No. [-] excavation area, looking for the Time Converter...
As Lavier told Ivan, the No. [-] excavation area is located at the edge of the entire Sun Ruins. The reason for the discovery was that the goblins wanted to measure the size of the Sun Ruins, and a large number of tombs were accidentally discovered during excavation here.
It is speculated that the owners of these tombs were priests or servants of the sun relics, and they may also be craftsmen who built the relics.
Similar tombs have been found near the Great Pyramid.
Although the things in these tombs cannot be as rich as the treasures in the ruins, the advantage is that the harvest is real. There is no need to take risks to break the pharaoh's curse, and it is not that troublesome. As long as a tomb is dug out, you can find the coffin, Mummies and other funerary ornaments.
At that time, the world-famous solar ship and the remnants of the "Black Book of the Dead" were also found in the tomb near the Great Golden Character.
That fragment was found in the tomb of a priest of Anubis, the most complete part ever found.
Therefore, the Ministry of Magic and Gringotts also paid more attention to this group of tombs, and specially sent five excavation teams, and many Muggle archaeologists were also sent here.
The above hopes to find enough heavyweight magic artifacts here, or information that is helpful for the excavation of the sun relics.
They were not disappointed, and the secret passage was found not long after the official excavation in the No. [-] excavation area started.
But no one expected that there would be time chaos in the room behind the secret passage, and the five excavation teams were all finished.
Up to now, the Muggles have withdrawn, and there is only one excavation team left in the entire No. [-] excavation area.
Their main task is to explore all the tombs and determine the location of other secret passages, but they are not allowed to enter and need to be reported immediately.
One of the idols of the four sons of Horus was found, and the other three must still be in the area.
Because it was too dangerous, the original secret passage had been blocked!
According to the previous promise, with the help of the pendulum, Aiwen got the approval slip from Gringotts, and he can go to visit.He was repeatedly warned not to enter the room at the end of the secret passage, and he also issued a guarantee and signed a letter of responsibility. If he encountered any accidents because of this, it had nothing to do with Gringotts.
After all, he wanted to go to the chaotic room at that time, which in the eyes of others was undoubtedly an act of death.
Chapter 1201 The Power of Time
Compared with the bustling obelisk hall, the entire No. [-] excavation area looks more deserted, and there are few people.
The upper layer of gravel in this area has been cleared, and a high wall not far away that has been cracked by the sun and eroded by sandstorms is particularly eye-catching.
Inside the high wall, there are many tombs that have been dug halfway, and there are already corroded bones scattered here and there.
There was a frightening silence in the burial area, and the rattling sound of the trolley carrying Aiwen was particularly ear-piercing.
"The resting place of the dead, this place should not be disturbed by the living."
When Ivan got off the trolley, such an idea popped into his head.
In fact, apart from him, Ivan didn't see any other staff members who were supposed to stay in the area.
There should also be an excavation team of about 20 people working here, as well as wizards from the Ministry of Magic to prevent adventurers from entering.
But now, Ivan didn't see a single figure.
He gave up after shouting a few times, maybe there is something new to discover, maybe those guys have passed.
According to the path Lavier told him this morning, Ivan walked to his destination.
This is a very inconspicuous tomb, or rather, just a tomb.
The scale is very small, and it is insignificant compared to the secrets hidden under it. Not to mention the luxurious decorations, there are not even murals on the walls of the tomb, but some words are carved deeply on the rocks with sharp tools.
Although it is blurry and difficult to identify, Ivan still found many words representing God Horus in it.
It can be seen that the owner of the tomb once had an important relationship with this god.
As recorded in the information that Lavier helped to find, the owner of this tomb may have been a priest or a fanatic of the god Horus during his lifetime. The secret passage under the tomb was also excavated privately, which was not originally planned by the Sun Ruins. .
The secret passage is in the place where the coffin was originally placed, that is, the center of the tomb.
This is a yellow granite sarcophagus. Although the remains and funerary objects inside have been removed, Ivan had an inexplicable strange feeling when he climbed in.
Speaking of which, he has climbed into the coffin of the dead twice in the past six months!
Before entering the secret passage under the vampire castle, I entered through the coffin, and this time it is the same.
This is not a good omen, why do these ancients always like to build secret passages in coffins...
The secret path bends downwards with a steep slope, supported by a few simple stone pillars, and many dead bones and scarabs can be seen from the gaps. It can be seen that several places in the middle have collapsed and were just destroyed not long ago. clean it up.
Even though this secret path has been corrected, the path is still difficult.
Aiwen walked forward with difficulty for about half an hour, and the surrounding pale yellow soil walls turned into blue rocks.
This is the rock of the main building of the Sun Ruins, indicating that he entered the interior of the ruins.
What caught his attention was the changes in the surrounding scenery. The first thing he saw was the cracked rock wall, which, like other places in the sun ruins, had begun to bloom due to time, but as he walked forward, the color of the wall changed , as if newly built, with fine lavender hangings and tapestries.
On some pillars, there are also ornaments that have never been seen before and whose meaning is unknown.
These decorations are just phantoms. When Aiwen touched it, his right hand went straight through and touched the rough rock wall behind.
He stopped, looked at the constantly changing phantom in front of him, and knew that this was time chaos...
Time works in this area, causing the surrounding walls to change between different timelines, just like the cycle that Ivan saw in the Ministry of Magic before, constantly changing from eggs to birds, and from birds to eggs cuckoo.
This is the power of time magic, it will not cause damage directly, but it will change the time you are in and have an impact.
This unknown influence is far more terrifying than magic damage in the general sense.
I don't know what the time magic item in the secret room is, this area is already under its influence.
Although the current impact is still negligible and can only produce some phantoms, but moving forward, the power will definitely become greater and greater.
Aiwen took out his time converter, and saw the three pointers on it kept changing back and forth in a small range.
Because the pointer didn't stop, the time converter didn't work, and brought him to other time points.
Aiwen concentrated his mind, facing the mysterious and unknown time magic, he had to be careful.
