Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 300

"I never understood Medea's purpose."

Scott frowned.

"During the contract challenge, she ordered two wizards to ambush in the Forbidden Forest, and they wanted to kill me."

He started pacing around in place.

"But she left me a gift when she left Hogwarts, and I have to say it was very precious."

Having said that, he looked at Ravenclaw in the painting.

"Go on," said Ravenclaw, smiling.

"She seems to want to win me over because she is optimistic about my future?" Scott still frowned. "Her attitude is not tough, but she often has some calculating tricks..."

"And you've managed it," said Ravenclaw.

Scott nodded.

Although it has been dealt with for the time being, it will not be good in the future.

People have mistakes, horses have mistakes, and Scott always feels that he doesn't know when he will be hit.

Just like this time, he has even been tricked.

The existence of Medea also made him worry all the time, which was not a good feeling.

"She is indeed optimistic about your future." Ravenclaw said meaningfully, "but it is not an easy task to tame an eagle that yearns for freedom."

Scott looked strange upon hearing this.

The words of the Ravenclaw mentor reminded him of the boiled eagle he had seen on the Internet in his previous life.

Boiling eagles, in old Beijing dialect, is also called boiling big eagles, one of the ways to train falcons.

Because eagles are ferocious and unruly, the people who play with them do not let them sleep after they catch them. It takes several days for the wildness of the eagles to fade away.

Now that I think about it, Medea's attitude towards him seems to have the same effect as that of boiling an eagle.

The same is true of Ravenclaw, and the means by which humans tame beasts should be similar.

Medea didn't intend to hurt Scott, she just kept using some means to keep him vigilant, dragging his attention and consuming his energy.

Now Scott can also imagine that the lady's method of dealing with him will probably become more and more difficult to resist, until the day he can't stand it anymore.

Speaking of which, Medea is really optimistic about his future!
Otherwise, why would she spend so much energy dealing with a teenage wizard apprentice like him?
In this regard, Scott really wanted to shout out, what can I do!
"It seems that you have thought of it." Ravenclaw in the painting said again, "So, do you understand what to do?"

"I see, Master," Scott said.

He can't pay too much attention to Medea's small actions. For him at present, the most important thing is always to absorb knowledge and accelerate growth.

He had to be on guard against Medea's little tricks, if he didn't guard against, he would really fall for it, and the consequences of being caught would certainly not be good.

Medea is not a normal person, and if Scott is tricked, she might be disappointed in him because of it.

At that time, Scott might lose his life.

Scott can think that if he can persist, Medea will always look at him high and will not use too drastic means to deal with him.

In short, this is a competition of willpower. When a person is suffering from an eagle, he cannot sleep. Conversely, the eagle is also suffering from a human.

"I decided a long time ago that I want to be the freest wizard!" Scott said.

He looked at Ravenclaw in the painting, his eyes and tone of voice were firm.

"No one can tame me." He emphasized again.

When Ravenclaw in the painting heard the words, the smile on his face became more real.

"Unfortunately, as a mentor, I don't have the ability to help you in this matter now." She said lightly, "Of course, if I had the ability, I wouldn't do that."

Scott wasn't surprised by her words.

He also smiled and said: "In order for the young eagles to learn to fly, their mothers will break their wings and push them off the cliff."

According to legend, the mother eagle's seemingly cruel breaking of most of the bones in the wings of the young eagle is the key to determining that the young eagle will be able to fly freely in the vast sky in the future.

The regeneration ability of eagle wing bones is extremely strong. As long as they can still bear the severe pain and keep flapping their wings to keep the wings full of blood after being broken, they will recover soon, and the wings will grow stronger and more powerful after recovery. .

If not, the young eagle will lose this only chance, and it will never have a chance with the blue sky.

Of course, this is just a legend, not so reliable.

Scott just suddenly remembered this widely circulated inspirational story, so he used it.

Hearing what Scott said, Ravenclaw in the painting sat dignifiedly on a gorgeous high-backed chair, looking down at him.

On the back of the wide chair, two bronze-colored eagle-wing designs were positioned at the shoulders on both sides of her body.

"Interesting." She looked at Scott and laughed, "I'm getting more and more satisfied with you as an apprentice, Scott."

"It is enough for me that you can grant me knowledge." Scott bowed lightly.

In response, Ravenclaw just nodded and said nothing more.

And Scott also quickly cleaned up his mood and began to enter the learning state.

This time, he took out all the blueprints that Bill sent with the letter, and began to discuss with Ravenclaw some things he didn't understand.

These ancient Egyptian magic items are very interesting and have a lot of reference for Scott.

Of course, the characters used by ancient Egyptian wizards are not runes, and they are not even in the same system as runes.

They used a type of hieroglyphic script known as "divinity", which later evolved into Coptic.

Ravenclaw was also interested in these sources from ancient Egypt.

She told Scott that the magic of ancient Egypt is not the same as the ancient magic of Great Britain, the use of "divinity" is not the same as the use of runes, and their alchemy is another set of theories.

"Unfortunately, I did little research on this during my lifetime," she sighed.

She's just a portrait after all, with all the knowledge the real Ravenclaw had before she left.

Of course, as a portrait of Ravenclaw, she is extremely special.

Unlike other portraits, she can add new memories and even learn some new knowledge.

But the portrait is not the real person after all, and she cannot grasp new knowledge as quickly as the real Ravenclaw.

"Their magical creations are more natural," Scott said.

This is why Bill wrote that paper in the first place, because some magic items have no trace of manufacture, as if they were created in an instant.

"How did they do that……"

That's Scott's biggest concern.

Because, there seems to be some overlap between such a magic item and the ultimate transformation technique he envisioned.

But this is not something that can be understood by looking at the information, and Bill can't understand it after seeing the real thing.

Ravenclaw, who has no research on this, can't give an answer.

Scott has no good way, but can only observe these drawings from time to time to see if he can generate some inspiration.

Of course, so far he has gained nothing.
