Hogwarts Survival Sim

"Study? Wouldn't it be very depressing to read here?"

The third floor of the castle is more like an attic. The distance from the top of the head to the ground is only about two meters, so there is no room for tall bookcases in the study. There are only a few boxes placed in the corners, containing some scattered papers and books.

There was only one small skylight in the whole room. A little sunlight shone in, but it still looked a little dark.In addition, the most eye-catching thing is the desk directly under the skylight. It is obviously made of high-quality materials and the workmanship is very exquisite.

There are also some books on the table, but there are more luxurious decorations, which seem a bit out of place.

"So I'm more inclined to think that this is the place where documents are placed." Ethan rummaged through the box and found that the papers and books were indeed blank. "There may even be some key things hidden."

"Why do you say that?" Lockhart asked curiously, "Other than being a little shorter, there doesn't seem to be anything special here."

"You have also noticed," Ethan continued to come to the desk and carefully observed the accessories on the table. "In the entire three-story building, there are only two rooms that are not blank."

"One of them is the bedroom of a girl. She is most likely the lover of the castle owner. And the other one is here. So what is the reason why the castle owner is so impressed by this place?"

"Well..." Lockhart thought seriously for a while, but couldn't think of anything. However, Hermione had some ideas.

"I think this must be related to the purpose of his coming here," she said slowly. "Although we can't see the whole picture, we can roughly infer that the owner of the castle does not come here with good intentions."

"So, it is possible that the broken decorations we saw in the hall were destroyed by him using magic." Lockhart responded quickly.

"Indeed," Ethan began his story, "Although the owner of the castle is a wizard, after our observation, except for the church, this village has no traces of magic. Instead, it looks like an ordinary Muggle. village."

"In other words, the owner of the castle is the alien here. You must know that wizards were regarded as savage beasts by ordinary people at that time. Perhaps the church was built here to capture wizards."

"Although he is a wizard, he can remember most places in the village very clearly, which proves that he has deep feelings for the village."

"However, at this time, the owner of the castle probably had a strong conflict with the village chief's family due to emotional issues," he continued his conjecture, "and even received a threat to his life. If you were him, you would directly Use magic to solve problems?”

"Probably not," Hermione replied. "In that case, the villagers who live with him day and night will also regard him as a monster."

"So the owner of the castle has such a clear memory of this place, probably because there is something here that is very detrimental to the village chief, and can even make the villagers forget his identity as a wizard and stand with him." Lockhart also understood. come over.

"It's nothing more than some shameful things, killing people and killing people." Ethan shrugged and touched a golden toad repeatedly, "And judging from the tragic situation of the church, the church may also be involved. In the end, he was brutally retaliated."

"Although these are all inferences, there is definitely a mechanism here."

After saying that, he put his hand into the toad's open mouth and twisted his tongue hard. A box slowly fell from the bottom of the table, but the lock had been opened and there was nothing inside.

"In other words, he did come here to find such a thing. I think our reasoning is not too far from the truth."

"Awesome, no matter in every aspect, you are so awesome, Ethan." Lockhart stared blankly at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but say.

"Ah hahaha, thank you." Ethan smiled calmly. He now felt like he was playing a large-scale scripted killing and escape room, and he didn't know if an NPC would appear soon.

"Then let's go to the church next. That should be the final location." Hermione said.

"I hope so."

So Ethan, Hermione and Lockhart left the three-story building and rushed towards the church opposite.

Compared to the village chief's house just now, the damage to the church was much more serious.Everything the three of them looked at was severely damaged. From the outer walls to the statues inside, a fierce struggle definitely took place here.

"Why haven't we seen any corpses?" Lockhart asked doubtfully. "Even if the villagers are all safe, there should be some corpses of church members or guards."

"I don't know. Maybe the owner of the castle doesn't want these corpses to pollute his memory."

As they chatted, they stepped over the broken rubble and walked toward the inside of the church.

Compared with the tragedy outside, the situation inside is obviously much better. Most of the rooms appear clean and simple, and have not suffered too much damage. I think there are some uninvolved and uninformed people in the church. The wizard did not Get angry at them.

Thinking of this, Ethan became more confident in the safety of himself and others.

Walking along the corridor, we soon came to the end, where there was a heavy iron door stained with blood.It seems that this is the secret of the church.

The door was not locked, so Ethan pushed it open with his toes, and a strong fishy smell hit his face.Although they quickly held their breath, they were still driven back by the smoke.

After a few minutes of calm, Hermione suddenly said:

"Ethan, do you think this smell is familiar to you?"

"Familiar?" Ethan frowned in thought. After Hermione reminded him, he really felt like he had asked about a similar smell somewhere.

"Have you forgotten why we came here in the first place?"

"Werewolf! This smell is somewhat similar to the smell of a werewolf!" Ethan said in surprise.

When they were at teacher Nico Flamel's manor, in order to treat Gerald, they studied a lot of information about werewolves. Among them was a somewhat doubtful theory, that is, werewolves who often eat people on full moon nights are changing. There will be a fishy smell emanating from the body behind the body, which seems to be related to blood. Some people think that this is the phenomenon of deepening the curse, which demonstrates the fact that lycanthropy is a blood curse.

In order to verify this conclusion, Ethan and Hermione specifically asked Mr. Flamel to help them negotiate with the Ministry of Magic and let them visit the scenes where the werewolves of the Black Moon Society transformed into wolves.It turns out that there is indeed a slight stench coming from them.

But why does this smell appear in the church?
