Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 2976 The secret without a trace (eight)

In the confiscated magazines, it is not difficult to find advertisements about travel.

In addition to the beautiful and attractive landscape photos, these advertisements also have preferential prices and items to attract readers. With the advancement of human transportation, traveling to distant places is not as difficult and risky as it used to be. You can take a comfortable luxury cruise ship, which is even bigger than the Titanic in the past, and there are many entertainment facilities on board, just like the land floating in the sea.

But time travel is not advertised, and it even has cumbersome restrictions. Compared with people who have been living in the wizarding world, it is easier for a little wizard from the Muggle world like Ben Cooper to apply for a time-turner, because he will not use it to "restore" anything.

Even if you don't know where You-Know-Who lived as a child, someone can go back to the day of the crime and stop Death Eaters or someone else from destroying their family.

Pomona didn't know how many times Ben Cooper had applied for the time-turner, but he seemed to have forgotten the existence of this thing, and Snape even thought of using Veritaserum to see if he really forgot .

It was almost impossible for the Head Slytherin to ask a Gryffindor to investigate with a Time-Turner, or to borrow his Time-Turner, and Pomona figured he'd have to tell Minerva and Dumbledore. With their style, it is estimated that they have to design another pit for Ben Cooper to jump... No, it should be to design reasonable twists and turns for him to overcome. It's like an actor who gets a script without knowing the plot and improvises.

The world has suffered from Emily for a long time, and many Gryffindor girls who joined her gang did so because they were afraid of being laughed at by her. Pomona estimated that Emily would not know the idiom "to deceive the teacher without superiors", which is an Eastern etiquette, but the concept of "cleaning the door" also exists in the West, but Isidora, like the mysterious man, made an unforgivable Is it wrong?

According to Augustine, the sinner is unhappy and longs for happiness. During the Eastern Expedition, the Pope announced that all those who joined the army could be exempted from crimes, and issued indulgences for every crusader. The theoretical basis for the church’s ability to reduce sins and punishments is that the saints have stored infinite good deeds. .

Whether it is the cost of supporting the Eastern Expedition or the cost of Renaissance artwork, it is a huge astronomical figure.

A good person can stand by the law of a sage, and a bad person can use the law of a sage to harm the world.

The saint is its origin, but the great thief can be its origin, and the harm will definitely be its origin.

When there are "few good people but many good people" in the world, there will be fewer cases where such sage's law is beneficial to the world, and there are more cases where the sage's law is used to harm the world.

This situation is not what the saints thought, but they are dead, so what can they do?

What the mysterious person pursues is eternal life, and a long life is what many people hope for. The average life expectancy of people in medieval Europe was about 35 years old, due to factors such as natural disasters, diseases, wars, and famines. That's why people believe in alchemy, the Philosopher's Stone, and the "panacea" that can cure all diseases.

The more believers, the more liars, and the transformation of base metals into gold is only a branch of alchemy, but it cannot cover all. For example, Ficino, Saladin's royal doctor, was also an astrologer and created "star magic" to treat "scholar's depression".

An atypical feature of depression is not being talkative, and Isidora's father was depressed because of the loss of his son, and she could have been treated in other ways as well.

See more sunlight, don’t stay indoors all the time, and exercise more. Ficino believes that scholars are thinking too much, and the imbalance caused by overactive mind and insufficient physical activity leads to excessive secretion of black bile and is negatively affected by it. , leading to mental depression, such as taking him to see Quidditch more often, the sun is also one of the stars.

Today's game was Gryffindor vs. Ravenclaw. For some unknown reason, Lucius Malfoy also came to watch. He was sitting next to Snape.

In terms of points, it is impossible for Slytherin to become the champion. This is mainly because Charlie grabs the Golden Snitch every time, which leads to a big difference in the scores between Gryffindor and other colleges, so that Slytherin has no chance to fight again. .

Originally, parents could watch the games in this kind of school. Muggle schools often do this. Even if they don’t like sports, they can still cheer and cheer, so that the atmosphere will not be so cold. At Hogwarts, this seems to be the prerogative of the school directors. , People outside the school are prohibited from entering the school during the school day.

Then there's Priya Moore, who sits at the front and is rooting for Ravenclaw even after graduation.

She has made meritorious service recently, and it is said that contraband was found in the gifts given to the band during the seizure, but this meritorious service is still a certain distance away from being transferred from the horseman's office.

To solve the problem, she still needs to find the lost key. Maybe she can also use the time converter to go back to last Christmas and see how the key was lost.

Pomona thought to herself that at that very moment someone scored a goal and everyone was cheering, so she cheered along.

As for who got in? Who cares.

Sinistra didn't come, astronomy classes were held in the evening, and she had recently heard that Muggles had discovered a new supernova in the Magellanic Cloud, the first supernova visible to the naked eye since 1604.

In order to watch the whole process of the eruption, the Hubble Space Telescope needs to be launched quickly, but because the Americans do not have enough funds, the Hubble launch plan has been delayed. Sinista called on Pomona to write to the European Space Agency together with her, Ask them to provide gold and instruments in exchange for Hubble time.

She is just a soft-spoken teacher. Will the European Space Agency pay attention to her after writing a letter? Even if they are wizards.

"Offside, offside!" Gryffindor yelled.

But Mrs Hodge did not blow the whistle, as if from her point of view she was not offside.

Pomona looked up at the dazzling sun, pressed down the witch's hat, and covered her eyes with shadows.

Only in the dark can we see more clearly, just as Hubble must be at the Lagrangian point facing away from the sun after launch, so that the light of the stars will not be affected by the sunlight.

When the Egyptian cultural relics were shipped, the person in charge was St. Hilaire. He actually wanted to bring the Rosetta Stone back to France, but the British shipped it to Liverpool.

Ordinary soldiers valued gold, silver and jewelry more than they could understand why scholars valued stones so much, and of course it was even more difficult for them to understand why someone would spend so much money on manuscripts.

If it is not precious, even if it is stolen, it will not be a pity, let alone feel that it is against morality and crime.

The Seven Years' War pushed both Britain and France into dire straits. The Duke of Choiseul, who was still in the court at the time, said, "England is just a small piece of Europe, and I can't believe it."

Then the Duke believed that the "Treaty of Paris" was just an armistice agreement. In the early days of the Seven Years' War, the Duke of Choiseul served as the ambassador of Vienna. capability and reduce British intervention, so that France's prestige and security in the face of rising Prussia and Russia will also be strengthened.

The Americas were the once glorious stage of Britain, but also its weakness. In 1765, he wrote to King Louis XV, "Only a revolution in America can bring England back to a weak state, so that Europe no longer has to worry about it". As long as the colonies don't contribute to the British, the expense of the overseas empire will crush them, but if the British try to tax the colonies, the colonies secede quickly, and they don't worry about being punished, because England can't afford it fight.

In order to better control the king, he became close friends with Madame Pompidou, ensuring that Louis XV could "take useful advice" and that the king was surrounded by "reliable people".

Then, like all Bourbon ministers, he became unscrupulous after becoming a foregone conclusion in the court. He built a large navy, and the bottomless pit-like spending was resisted by the high court, and the navy is indispensable for France to operate overseas. of.

But Bonaparte has never intended to use the Americas as the main battlefield. Although the current Spanish King Carlos IV holds power, Queen Maria Luisa and her lover Godoy are in favor of an alliance with France, but if Spain The royal family was replaced by the Duke of Alba with the surname of Stuart. Then France had a reason to help Stuart regain the British crown and landed in England. The English Channel is much easier to cross than the Atlantic Ocean. This time he came to Belgium not to sit Did the ship come?

As a civilized country, England must abide by the law of the sea, and warships cannot enter the territorial waters of other countries. If this rule is not followed, what is the difference between the Royal Navy and the pirates?

The rise of the British navy is related to the strong support of Queen Elizabeth of the Stuart dynasty. If the Stuart royal family can be replaced by the Hanover royal family of female descendants, why can’t other Stuarts of female descendants?

Napoleon preferred Voltaire to Montesquieu, and he had a full collection of Voltaire in his library. In the era of "Louis XIV", the court mourned the death of the Duke of Vendome, the "Regent" of France in Spain.

England stopped issuing "new" charters because of Spain's flood of charters. The previous charter is still valid until it expires. Although the issuance is temporarily suspended, its impact is not as violent as the "flood" in Spain.

Gordan Poitvin was recommended by Georgiana, he did well in Madrid, and he would meet Georgiana if she wanted to go to Spain, and if she was not interested in politics, she could go to the Spanish king’s library, which collected almost all books on alchemy, including Ficino's original translations of the Codex Hermes, the Chaldean Oracle, and other Hermetic sources.

"He wants to drive me out of Paris?" asked Georgiana.

"Do you want to go back to Paris?" asked Saint-Hilaire.

Actually she didn't need Paris as much as Mrs. Stahl did, but...

"What about the book I'm looking for?" Georgiana asked.

"We'll keep looking," said Saint-Hilaire.

She didn't quite believe it, but she didn't know Arabic, not even if she found it.

"Why did he do that to me?" Georgiana asked.

"You know why? Madame Dubarry has a nickname 'Miss Angel'. She has always liked trivial victories. In order to bring down the Duke of Choiseul, she has been trying to mess up the marriage between France and Austria. The original marriage partner of Louis XVI It was Marie Antoinette's sister, but she was replaced because she was young."

Georgiana was speechless.

"You're not an angel, are you?" Saint-Hilaire laughed.

"You monsters," she whispered, turning a stuffed rabbit on the table into a crystal glass. "Would you like some water?"

"No thanks, I'm not thirsty," said Saint-Hilaire.

"After talking so much, you're not thirsty? I don't believe it." Georgiana said with a smile, and handed the crystal cup filled with water to Saint-Hilaire, "Drink it."

Saint-Hilaire hesitated, but finally took it.

He looked at Georgiana, and slowly drank the water in the glass.

"Don't worry, it's not poisonous." She said kindly, looking extremely sincere.
