Hogwarts School of the Dark Arts

Picking it up for nothing... No, to be precise, I picked up a Horcrux for nothing, and then used the Horcrux to get a time turner, so this time turner is very precious.

After returning home and putting the magic book aside, Xavier sat on the sofa and carefully recalled what he had been doing before.

"I stayed in the bedroom since yesterday afternoon and didn't come out until this morning when I went out to Diagon Alley."

"That means as long as you don't happen to bump into me when I go out, it's safe for me to use the time turner in the living room."

"How long would it be better to go back in time?"

Xavier hung the time-turner chain around his neck, held the time-turner in front of his eyes with one hand, and observed it.

The shape of the time turner is a bit like an armillary sphere, which is also a ring within a ring.

Xavier knows how to use it. He only needs to press and hold the outermost shaft to rotate. Once his hand is released, it will start, just like clockwork.

Each turn can go back one hour in time.

"It's too boring to go back for an hour or two, but if it's too dangerous to go back for too long at a time, if you're playing for the first time... just go back 24 hours, exactly one day."

With this in mind, Xavier began to turn the time turner.

One lap, two laps, three laps... 24 laps.

Let go, and the time turner suddenly spins rapidly like the wheels of a wind-up toy car.

At the same time, Xavier saw the scene around him changing rapidly, just like watching another video accelerated to an absurdly fast speed.

This process lasted much longer than Xavier expected, so long that Xavier felt incredible.

"No, what about a house as big as mine? This house clearly existed a day ago!"

Xavier looked up and could see the sky directly. The sky was white, then black, and dotted with stars, changing back and forth.

There are no furniture or walls around, replaced by crazily shrinking trees.

Xavier dared not move.

Although he didn't know what happened specifically, Xavier knew that something must have gone wrong, and it was a big problem!

Timing in his mind, about five minutes had passed, and the scene in front of him finally stopped changing. Xavier looked around in silence.

In a grassland, you can occasionally see a few long and twisted trees. A full moon exudes bright moonlight, and the surrounding stars are twinkling.

"The weather is nice... Needless to say, I must have traveled through the wrong time."

Xavier scratched his head, puzzled.

I obviously didn't count the wrong number of circles. Besides, even if I made a mistake, I would only miss one or two circles at most. How could I still lose the number of houses?

"Is it possible that this time turner is a modified version of the magic that can not only travel through time but also through space?"

Taking off the time turner and preparing to study it, Xavier was startled.

He can feel that the magic power in the time turner in his hand is decreasing at this moment!

"Damn it! Don't let anything go wrong!"

"Magic power...replenishing magic power...that's right! My special magic for wasting magic power!"

Xavier quickly took out his wand and pointed it at the time turner.

"Magic surge!"

The next moment, Xavier breathed a sigh of relief.

"You can replenish the magic of the time turner."

But after a while, the breath that Xavier had just loosened started to rise again - the time turner was still "leaking" continuously!

"Now the problem is serious. If there are magic crystals, I can still replenish the magic, but I don't have it with me... If this continues, it will be drained... Are there any magical creatures around here?"

Xavier looked around, but he couldn't even see any ordinary animals, let alone magical creatures, only weeds all over the ground.

"No matter what, we must find a way, we can't just sit back and wait for death."

Thinking of this, Xavier continued to replenish the magic of the time turner while walking to his right, where there was a high slope not far away.

He hadn't reached it yet, but while he was walking, suddenly, a house elf appeared less than five meters in front of him... No, it was not a house elf, but a goblin.

Although he is still short, he is obviously closer to a human. However, he is dressed completely different from the goblin Xavier saw in Gringotts before. He is only wearing a sloppy suit that seems to be the skin of some kind of beast. Sewn clothes.

“%¨+v【?6?1】#＿／／＝”

Xavier:? ? ?

"What did you say???"

"＿&＿#／"＇＿＄#"

"I don't understand what you are talking about. Which country's language are you speaking? Can you speak Chinese? You can also speak Chinese."

"&#$¨%#"&"

The goblin seemed to realize that Xavier didn't understand what he said at all. As he spoke, he kept gesticulating with his hands, with a very anxious look on his face.

"I still don't understand, nor do I understand." Xavier shook his head, shrugged, and put the wand and the time turner into his pocket.

"#&＝／#"%"

The goblin waved his hands faster.

Suddenly, a look of horror appeared on the face of the goblin who was gesturing quickly, and in the next moment, Xavier felt his arm being grabbed.

Just when Xavier was about to resist, the sky and the earth began to spin. In front of him was no longer a grassland, but a dark place surrounded by stones, which seemed to be a cave.

Xavier saw the goblin relaxed and wiped his forehead with his hand.

Realizing that Xavier was looking at it, it grinned and showed its fangs, then waved for Xavier to follow it.

Confused, Xavier carefully followed the goblin.

Along the way, Xavier saw many goblins and many humans, but Xavier couldn't understand what they said, and they were all wearing rags.

Continuing forward, Xavier was taken by the goblin into a stone room. Inside was a male goblin with white hair and a wooden staff. He seemed to be very old.

The two goblins chatted for a while, and then the old goblin nodded to the goblin who brought Xavier, and the goblin bowed and left.

The old goblin looked at Xavier, and suddenly, Xavier heard a voice.

"Young man, where are you from?"

Xavier blinked and thought for a moment: "I'm from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

The old goblin frowned: "Young man, you are very special. I can't hear your voice...and I can't understand what you are saying. Can you hear what I say?"

"Okay." Xavier nodded.

"That's good, then I can use magic to let you learn our language... I wonder if you are willing to learn? Don't worry, it won't cause any harm to you." The old goblin said.

Xavier thought for a moment and nodded.

There doesn't seem to be any harm in learning another language, and besides, it's done in a magical way.

More importantly, Xavier did not feel any malice from the goblin in front of him.
