Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 420 The Stone Arch in the Darkness

Maureen gasped, is the spotlight out of power?Not going to continue lighting or what?It's easy to scare people by dropping the chain at this time, okay?
He was about to read a "fluorescent flash" to illuminate, but found that the darkness around him suddenly receded slowly, as if there was a faint light coming from the darkness and shining in front of him.

Mo Lin stopped in his tracks and looked at him in surprise. The spotlight had gathered in front of him and shone on a stone platform in front of him.

This stone platform is made of countless quaint stone strips. The stone strips show a bronze brilliance. It seems that they have experienced the baptism of years, and there is an indescribable sense of vicissitudes.On this stone platform, there is a stone arch made of stone blocks!
It was the stone arch that suddenly appeared in front of Hogwarts Castle when school started last September!
"What does it mean?"

Mo Lin looked at this stone arch in amazement, why did there also appear a stone arch here?

The stone arch that suddenly appeared outside the Hogwarts castle sparked discussions among many students when school first started last year. Everyone speculated that this stone arch might hide the inheritance or treasure of the four founders of the college.

But Principal McGonagall protected the stone arch, and no one was allowed to approach it, and everyone could only wait and see.Many people want to find out why this stone arch suddenly appeared, but no one has a clue.

Over time, many people have become accustomed to the existence of this stone arch, and no longer think about what this stone arch represents.

But Morin has seen this stone arch before, because in Payngade's memory, Paying Gade had his eye on this stone arch of the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic, and Arnock also mentioned the origin of this stone arch to him a little bit. , but didn't go into too much detail.

For a while, he had been thinking about the twelve black cubes. If he hadn't seen this in this weird place, Mo Lin would have even forgotten that there was a stone arch that suddenly appeared outside Hogwarts Castle.

Maureen hesitated for a moment, because he usually couldn't get close to the stone arch outside Hogwarts Castle, so he wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to see what was so special about the stone arch.

The stone arch is guarded by lions, eagles, snakes and badgers, and they surround the stone arch.However, just as Mo Lin stepped forward, the four animals on the stone arch suddenly started to move.

The lion of Gryffindor was originally lying on the side of the stone arch. When it saw Maureen, it stood up, shaking its mane, and its mighty eyes showed a sense of shock.

Slytherin's snake hovered over the stone arch, its body circled twice around the top of the stone arch, the snake's head poked forward, and the snake kept swallowing.

Ravenclaw's eagle spread its wings, and all its feathers stretched out, as if it was about to spread its wings to fly, but soon it closed again, and a pair of sharp eagle eyes stared at Maureen.

The Hufflepuff badger shook his head beside the stone arch, the two small ears on his head trembled, stretched out two paws, hugged the stone arch, and changed his posture.

"These four statues won't attack me?" Mo Lin muttered.

He stopped in his tracks, feeling a little apprehensive.Coming from a wizard family, he knew that many statues would be cast with powerful magic. These statues would attack others. If these four animals rushed towards him, he might not be able to resist.

But the four statues didn't seem to have any intention of attacking him. When Mo Lin stopped, they just changed their posture and looked at Mo Lin without any intention of rushing over.

Mo Lin bravely continued to walk forward, and stepped onto the stone platform along the steps. The eyes of the four statues have always been on Mo Lin, and they have not shifted.When Maureen was about to approach the stone platform, the Gryffindor lion suddenly lowered its head and let out a slight growl.

The sound startled Maureen. He thought that the Gryffindor lion was about to pounce, so he quickly raised his wand to be on guard.

But the Gryffindor lion just slowly started to walk around Maureen, with eyes like a beast sizing up a prey, looking for the best time to attack, which made Maureen feel an inexplicable sense of oppression.

The Hufflepuff badger was also on all fours, circling Molin with the Gryffindor lion, looking at Maureen. Although he looked simple and honest, Molin had no doubt that if this badger moved his hands, he would definitely not As foolish as it looks.

Slytherin's snake tail was hooked on the door frame, the snake's body hung down like a rope, then raised its head, and spit out a snake letter at Molin, while showing sharp snake teeth, as if warning Molin not to approach the stone arch .

Ravenclaw's eagle has already flown from above the stone arch. Although it is a stone sculpture, its speeding flexibility is not inferior to that of a real eagle. It hovers over Molin, its sharp claws hanging in the air, as if It will be caught in the next moment.

"Sorry, shouldn't I be here?"

Maureen found himself surrounded by four animal statues from Hogwarts College, and his heart was filled with trepidation.

The four animals just looked at Mo Lin, the atmosphere froze for a while, and Mo Lin didn't know what to do.He was hesitating whether to retreat or continue to approach the stone arch. Judging from the defensive actions of the four statues, it was a wiser choice to retreat.

But he was not reconciled. Although he didn't know what the stone arches in Hogwarts meant, the existence of the stone arches had something to do with Payngade, and it was the first time he got so close, so he really wanted to take a good look at the stone arches. arch.

"You won't let me near this stone arch, will you?" Maureen asked.He didn't know if the four animals could understand or not, but it was always good to ask politely.

All four animals suddenly made sounds, the roar of the Gryffindor lion was mighty and majestic, the scream of the Ravenclaw eagle was sharp and long, the cry of the Hufflepuff badger was honest and high, and the neighing of the Slytherin snake Husky and low.

But Maureen had no idea what they meant.

"Duoyi, you are also a little beast. Can the little beasts understand each other's animal language? Can you help me translate it?" Mo Lin said to Duoyi, who was eating a biscuit on his shoulder.

Duoyi held the biscuit in his little paw, tilted his head and thought for a while, then pointed to the stone arch, then pointed to the four animals, with his little paw on his hips, said proudly, "Duoyi, that's awesome!"

"What a badass!"

Mo Lin shook his head helplessly, Duoyi's translation is really straightforward, translation is equal to no translation.

"My name is Maureen Walker, if you understand - I'm from Gryffindor House."

Maureen felt that it was always a virtue to introduce himself politely wherever he went.

The Gryffindor Lion roared softly again.

Maureen was thinking about what the Gryffindor lion's roar meant, greeting him or something, but at this moment, a gray-white curtain suddenly hung down on the stone arch, fluttering gently, and then the stone arch made a sound. Faint white light.

Then a voice suddenly sounded in his ear. This voice was made by a person. The voice was extremely ethereal, as if someone was whispering in his ear. Mo Lin even felt a cold wind blowing through his ears.

He shivered involuntarily.
