Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1112 The WingMakers

"What's the point? No point!"

After solving the hidden arrows in the fifth-floor maze, Severus sat on the stone bench in the "garden" to rest, and said angrily while drinking water.

"I agree." Voldemort said furiously from the side. "If you want to share the benefits, it also depends on whether you have the strength. It's not enough to just come and say that you want to share."

"The Aurors and the International Federation of Wizards are coming!" Pomona roared.

"You heard what I said." Voldemort said indifferently.

"Look at me!" Severus showed the wounds on his body that were scratched by the arrow. "I worked so hard to get this! You give it to me!?"

"We haven't opened the last door of the maze yet." Pomona said very depressed.

"Can you tell us about the last constellation puzzle now?" Severus asked
Voldemort didn't say.

"Or you just don't know?" Severus narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

"Leda and the swan," said Voldemort, "two white goose eggs, one was the children of her and the king's husband, Castor and Clytemnestra, and the other egg gave birth to her and Zeus' children. Polks and Helen."

"We all know that, and then what?" Severus asked.

"The last sign is Gemini?" Pomona asked.

"What we should worry about is the next level." Voldemort said, "Do you think the sixth level of the maze is the easiest?"

"Obviously not." Pomona said hopelessly, "And what trick?"

"Zeus controls lightning," said Voldemort. "The swan sculpture does not represent the real swan, but the swan that Zeus transformed into."

Pomona looked at the black curtain in the sky.

In the end, she did not escape the trick of fate and was about to be struck by lightning.

"What can you do?" Severus asked.

"Fit a lightning rod," said Voldemort.

"Is it that simple?" Pomona asked.

"What is the principle of the lightning rod?"

"Do crystals conduct electricity?" Pomona asked Felix.

Felix blushed, and Pomona gave up asking.

"What's down there in this maze?" Severus asked.

"Some women outside think they can destroy this maze." Voldemort said indifferently.

"Villains have self-destruct devices," Pomona said.

Severus and Voldemort watched her together.

"What?"

"If she's really capable of destroying the maze," Severus said.

"I will not give her anything." Voldemort said still forcefully, "Everything here is left to me by my ancestors."

Pomona looked at Lyle Meyer, who looked dazed, his eyes glazed over to a point in the void.

"I heard that Xenophilius tried to restore Ravenclaw's diadem," said Voldemort. "That may be why he came here."

"Not because he kidnapped Dougie?" Pomona asked.

Voldemort snorted and sneered.

Negotiating with the British, there was not much room for bargaining, but Pomona did not expect that there was no "room".

None of them are willing to give in. Obviously, there is nothing to talk about.

And not surprisingly, they will also form an enemy.

This is the style of Slytherin's negotiation. The transaction is carried out under the condition of equal strength, and Albus will adopt a soft way, at least in the future, he will not immediately stand in a hostile position.

"Should I lie to them?" asked Pomona.

"I am not a dishonest person." Voldemort said, "I will fulfill the conditions promised."

"Don't you know nothing?"

"As long as they are willing to serve me..."

"Don't think about it, Tom, you are blasphemy in their eyes." Pomona interrupted him rudely. "They are not afraid of death at all. In their eyes, death means becoming another life." part, the elements that make up their bodies become the elements that make up other life, and they don't ask for eternal life."

"I told you, I don't care what people outside think, I want to ask you how to pass the next level." Voldemort said impatiently.

"That swan sculpture is taller than us, isn't it?" Pomona asked.

Voldemort nodded.

"Maybe this is the key to open the next door." Pomona said, "All the lightning should be directed to the swan sculpture, so that the entrance to the seventh labyrinth will be opened."

"You don't think there is anything dangerous under the labyrinth?" Voldemort asked.

"I didn't sense it." Pomona looked at the ground under her feet. "But we are indeed on the earthquake zone."

"Thunder often comes with rain," Severus said. "If we connect the thunder to the ground, the rain will send electricity to us."

"Oh." Pomona suddenly realized.

"We can fly," said Voldemort.

"That height can't be higher than the lightning rod," Severus said.

"I've got a sizzling bee," said Pomona. "Eat it and you'll fly."

"I'd rather drink the flying potion than something so unreliable!" Severus said stiffly.

"Why are you asking for it so hard?"

"We'll make a crown for that swan," said Voldemort. "I don't like Muggle lightning rods."

Franklin invented the lightning rod after successfully experimenting with a kite to catch lightning.When the lightning rod was first invented and promoted, the church once regarded it as an ominous thing, saying that if it was equipped with something like Franklin's, it would not only fail to protect against lightning, but would cause God's wrath and be struck by lightning.However, in Philadelphia and other places, some high cathedrals that refused to install lightning rods were struck by lightning one after another during heavy thunderstorms.The buildings taller than the church were safe in the heavy thunderstorm because of the lightning rods installed.

Since the lightning rod had first shown its prowess in Philadelphia and other places, it immediately spread to all parts of North America, and then to Europe.

After the lightning rod was introduced to the UK, the British also widely adopted Franklin's pointed lightning rod.But after the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War, Franklin's pointed lightning rod seemed to become a symbol of the United States to be born in the eyes of the British.Out of anger against the American Revolution, King George II of the United Kingdom ordered that all the pointed ends of the lightning rods on all the royal buildings in the United Kingdom be replaced with round ones to show that they are incompatible with the pointed lightning rods that are the symbol of the United States.

Lightning strikes were once regarded as a kind of divine punishment, but after humans knew how to control electricity, they no longer remained in awe of "natural punishment", let alone the doomsday judgment.

Zeus obtained the title of King of the Gods by means of prison father, he imprisoned Cronus and the defeated Titans in Tartarus in the underworld.In order to prevent them from escaping, Zeus ordered Poseidon to build bronze doors, windows and walls around the prison, and then asked the hundred-armed giant and the three-headed dog to guard it.

After Cronus overthrew Uranus, he rescued eleven brothers and sisters from Gaia, but the Cyclops and Hundred-armed Giants were still imprisoned in Gaia.What Zeus did was to avenge the hundred-armed giant.

"I have a bad premonition." Pomona murmured, "A very bad premonition."

She has seen the three-headed hell dog, so she also believes that there are hundred-armed giants in this world.

The spacious labyrinth with only one swan sculpture is equivalent to the Colosseum.

"The fifth feather," Severus said. "You say it's best for a quill."

"That's right," said Pomona and Voldemort together.

"What you said, quill and iron gall ink, should I guess it's silver now." Severus said tartly, "Franklin tied a silver key to the kite."

"Franklin's time is different from that of Mungnes Hagrid!" Pomona yelled.

Voldemort did not join their debate.He was thinking about something alone, and no one dared to disturb him.

For a moment, he was somewhat similar to the frightened Lyle Meyer, his eyes were looking at a point in the void, and his eyes were dull and lifeless.

　Dear Dujie, why are you worried about lightning rods?
