Archdruid of Hogwarts
Chapter 76 Magic Mirror
Everyone is the protagonist of his own life.
The ups and downs, what others can share or share, are ultimately limited.
Carrying their own ideas and dreams, enduring their own pains and difficulties, and savoring their own success and joy, the little wizards feel that this vacation has made some spiritual growth.
Even Ron said that in the second half of the semester, he will focus on those courses. If he fails in the exam, he will be embarrassed.
Ernie shrugged and said to himself: "I'm thick-skinned. If I say I don't want to learn, I won't learn. Only by giving up can I gain."
At noon the next day, I met with Dumbledore.
Dumbledore changed from his previous plain clothes and wore a luxurious purple robe, and also wore a hat similar to a Christmas hat with a magic bead embedded in the top.
If Ernie remembers correctly, the last time I saw Dumbledore wearing this was at the opening ceremony.
Dumbledore had a smile on his face and almost sang, "I'm so happy today." ’
There is no way, all of Ernie's predictions have come true, and the investment in currency speculation has already made a lot of money. Now he is just waiting for April, and based on the current basis, he will make dozens of times!
"Congratulations."
"Congratulations." Dumbledore said with a smile.
He knew that the MacMillan family also bought some. As Ernie said earlier, not buying at all would seem abnormal.
Not long ago, he heard several people from pure-blood families show off, and at the same time, they did not forget to step on the MacMillan family a few times for comparison, to show their wisdom, prowess, and wide connections.
Some people even wanted to catch up with their assets, causing MacMillan to shout, "Kneel down, sir!" ’
Others are discussing cashing out. The reason is that even if such a large alliance collapses, it will probably only be temporary. After all, the key assets are there, as well as the force. I believe they will wake up soon and pick themselves up...
So, watching the idiots show off their wits gives me a special sense of looking down, which is a pleasure.
"Two things." Dumbledore took the initiative to speak: "1. I checked the information on the Mirror of Erised. Let's verify it together this night of the full moon."
Ernie nodded deeply and thanked him. Dumbledore took him to play, which was a compliment.
"2. Make arrangements for unicorn substitutes. During the festival, I visited Flamel. He was very touched by the several items you brought earlier. He felt itchy and did several experiments. One of them was very suitable for replacement. The Philosopher's Stone can even be said to be more suitable than the original one."
Ernie asked: "What's the law? If you get caught, it will be costly?"
"Well, it nourishes life, but it doesn't directly benefit the soul."
Ernie cursed: "So when the magic stone was used and it succeeded in giving Quirrell a mouthful, the effect might be concentrated on his long hair, but Voldemort could only make minor insinuations, and even become hungrier because of it..."
He asked again: "In other words, Harry is no longer a necessary part of this drama. It is good to catch up and gain some growth experience, but it cannot and will not affect Voldemort's misfortune."
"you can say it this way."
"Okay, I know what to do. When I arrange the unicorn, you can test it and identify it. You can't see the flaw, and I believe Voldemort can't either."
“I happily accepted this somewhat explicit compliment.”…
In the blink of an eye, it was January 92, 1, the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
It's time to open the camera.
It was a beautiful day. During the day, Ernie muttered: "The sky is cloudy like this. If you want to get some moonlight at night, you probably need Dumbledore to cast a spell, right?"
As a result, around 21 o'clock, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, with not even an extra cloud.
In a secret room in the main tower of Hogwarts, Dumbledore and Ernie hugged their shoulders and looked at the rather luxurious Mirror of Erised.
Eris, reversed in English, means ‘desire’.
Correspondingly, the etching on the top 'Eris Stella Ohelu Aitwubi Kafulu Aitian Voorhees', read in reverse, means: What I show is not Your mirror image, but your inner desire.
A very simple fairy tale trick, just look at the text from the perspective of the mirror and everything will be clear.
Dumbledore snorted: "You said it looks like this, why didn't I suspect it was actually a door before?"
Ernie didn't answer this question, so he couldn't say, "I am the same", right?
The shape of the Mirror of Eris really looks like a door, especially the 'head', which can be seen as a characteristic of the classic 'triangle' of ancient Greek architecture.
Lintels are not useful unless they are blessed and valuable. This was emphasized in ancient times both at home and abroad. Therefore, the mere existence of this ‘lintel’ and the essence of this mirror are already obvious.
Not to mention the Mirror of Erised and the 'Crown of Three Monuments'.
Simply put, there are three corners on the top of the frame, one at the center peak and one on each side. This corner is very similar to the front of an obelisk. It is thick at the bottom, narrow at the top, gradually tapering, and has a concave surface with relief patterns.
The style of this monument is authentic to ancient Egypt.
Overall, the pattern formed by these three obelisks resembles a crown. In European heraldry, the fatter word "mountain" is often used to represent the crown.
Not to mention the obvious column effect of the frames on both sides and the threshold pattern at the bottom.
All in all, this is the design of the door. It is really blind to have a mirror installed and be used as a mirror all the time.
Ernie also felt a little embarrassed. He felt that as people get older, their thinking is bound by various fixed rules and regulations. Without the wild imagination, there are so many ideas from another world, but when it comes to implementation, they have high ambitions and low intentions.
"So this is the real me. If I have one, I will be stupid. If I don't, I will be stupid. The identification is complete!"
Dumbledore was not like Ernie, who always denied himself. He looked at the magic mirror more with the attitude of appreciating the exquisite mechanism.
Since he and Ernie had the characteristics of being friends for many years, he asked more casually: "Tell me, where is the origin of this magic mirror? Ancient Greece, ancient Egypt?"
Ernie said: "I think it's the Nordic Scandinavia mystery system."
"Oh? What's the reason?"
“The outside is all imaginary, and the key activation spell is runes.
In ancient times, it was difficult to transmit information. Those who were proficient in runes, even if they were not orthodox inheritors of the Nordic mystical system, had deep research on it and were inextricably linked to it.
To put it simply, if you don’t even have a basic understanding of playing with my stuff, then you are not worthy of playing.
This is a sign of high self-esteem. It is not surprising that someone who believes that he can make such an artifact has such an arrogant attitude. "
Dumbledore nodded: "That makes sense."
The moon is at its zenith, and the moonlight shines through the window on the mirror, completely bathing it in the moonlight.
Dumbledore stepped forward and tried to twist the obelisk.
‘Crack! ’ It’s really loose.
So I continued to operate according to the records in the ancient books. The steps of ‘removing the crown and destroying the monument’ have been completed.
Next, the three steles were combined into one and erected in the middle of the lintel.
There are vertical strips on the lintel, just like the lattice of a window.
Originally, these three monuments did not match the space formed by the tie rods, but when the monument was placed over, the outer frame fell off, and the inner 'flesh' was riveted with the space (mortise and tenon rivet to the aperture).
Then he put the empty stele shelf back in place, and the decoration in the middle of the lintel began to move like a snake.
At this time, I can see the flavor of HP alchemy.
For example, when the door of the Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets is opened, the steel snakes, which are like the alloy lock posts of the vault door, bend and expand on their own...
The inheritance has a long history. Although the four founders of Hogwarts are great, they also stand on the shoulders of their predecessors, so they will definitely be able to find some traces of their predecessors' techniques in their techniques.
Dumbledore also sighed secretly when he saw them. He was afraid that they were all strange spells that he could not identify, so he should really worry about the next adventure.
The texture of the stele became a door plaque, and the reliefs on the door plaque formed symbols. The symbols began to absorb the moonlight, like water, and the light rose unhappily until the plaque was completely submerged.
‘Click! ’ With a soft sound, the three tombstone frames slowly sank, giving Ernie the feeling of being inserted into a key.
As it gradually blends into the frame, the linkage begins, and all-round transformation occurs. Although it is not as dazzling as the transformation in the live-action movie {Transformers}, it is still quite significant. Even the etched text has changed.
Ernie frowned more and more and muttered:
"It's so complicated and cumbersome. It shouldn't be for showcasing skills, so its use is highly questionable. Isn't it a dark prison or something like that?"
Dumbledore glanced at Ernie, meaning: Can you stop being so crow-mouthed?
Ernie said: "What happened to the crow? If it is really a Nordic mystery, the crow is also the messenger of the God King Odin!"….
