Hogwarts: The Cat Wizard of the Moving Castle

Chapter 243 Avalon’s Conjecture

No matter it's windy or raining, Moonlight Castle stands quietly above the Adriatic Sea. It has been like this since leaving Greece.

Weekends, basement.

Mu En looked at the baby with pink and soft skin in the cage, raised his hand, and cut a bloody wound on his arm.

The next moment, like a hyena, the baby's eyes were fixed on Mu En's arm, the blood vessels on its forehead swelled, and its skin gradually turned blue.

The wound heals and the blood dissipates.

The abnormality in the baby gradually faded away.

"It's still not stable enough. As for the state of the soul."

Thinking, he twisted his fingers, crossed the cage fence, and pointed directly at the baby's forehead.

After a moment, he withdrew from the other party's deep consciousness. His expression softened a little.

The effect is good, at least it can kill the opponent directly and then provide relief.

It's just that... the consumption is still a bit high, and it may need to be optimized again to ensure that I can easily deal with the group of Yin zombies in the underground cave.

At that time, the category of Inferi, whether it is magical creatures or dark magic creations, can be directly removed from the list and turned into history.

But this has nothing to do with his purpose. He just wants to feel more comfortable.

Thinking of this, Mu En stretched and walked out of the basement to the living room on the first floor.

"Are you going to Diagon Alley today?" As soon as he walked up, Moon saw Harry who was about to go out.

Harry nodded: "Well, the school shopping list has been sent out, and Hermione said we would go to Diagon Alley together with Neville and Fred George.

The time was agreed upon at Mr. Black's funeral. "

Mu En nodded: "Go."

He must be too lazy to move.

Just as he was thinking about it, an owl he had never seen before appeared outside Privet Drive and knocked on the window.

Harry quickly walked over and opened the door, took the envelope with some confusion, and then handed it to Moon.

Opening the letter, he was surprised to find that it was a letter from Bo Jin.

After a while, he stood up with interest and threw the letter into the fireplace.

"Uncle Moon, what happened?" Harry was a little curious.

"Nothing." Moon shook her head: "Bojin said that he might have found out about Avalon."

"Avalon?!" Harry was a little surprised, and then his memory gradually emerged. The last time they explored the so-called Avalon was a year ago, and that strange secret place left a deep impression on him.

"Let's go, I'll go to Diagon Alley with you." Mu En said, putting on the coat on the coat rack.

"Okay." Harry nodded repeatedly.

At ten o'clock, the whole city has already woken up.

On the street of Charing Cross, Christian stood outside the record shop next to the Leaky Cauldron and looked through the window at the records inside, while Hermione checked the list of books to buy over and over again.

Soon, they noticed Moon and Harry coming out of the alley. Harry's hand had a big cut. Someone in the alley threw a tattered iron sheet. As soon as he appeared, the iron sheet cut it. The pain in his flesh made him grin.

"It seems that I need to buy some fresh food too." He gritted his teeth and applied the last bit of fresh food on the wound, with veins rising on his face.

"When you get used to traveling through time, you will be able to have the energy and mind to make certain observations and adjustments to the current situation of the landing point when you are about to land at the end." Mu En said briefly: "Of course, the premise It’s because you are already proficient in time travel, so it doesn’t need to take up too much of your mind.”

"So that's it." Harry said: "No wonder sometimes when teleporting to some more skilled places, I can see the landing point in a daze, but most of the time it's a bit difficult to do this."

Mu En nodded, then Chris said hello and walked towards the bar.

After a while, several people came to Diagon Alley. This is the busiest time in Diagon Alley except Christmas. In addition, because of Sirius Black, many parents prohibit children from going out alone.

The whole alley was packed with people, like swarms of sardines in the sea.

"Let me take a look. I want to buy a copy of "Parting through the Fog to See the Future" by Cassandra Wabraski and a copy of "Arithmetic Divination: Mathematics is the Law of the World".

"Do you want to learn it?" Harry was a little confused.

"Miss Granger must learn. Percy has already told her how to obtain the twelve O's certificate, right?" Fred's voice came from behind several people.

"Professor, this must be Mr. Granger, good morning." George said.

Harry turned his head: "Is it just you? Where's Ron? Have you guys seen Neville?"

Fred also greeted Moon and Chris. George looked at Harry: "Ron took Neville to see the Quidditch store. A new broomstick has been pre-sold there. It is said to be a World Cup model called the Firebolt. Mom and Dad They went to the bookstore and there were so many books to buy, but with luck this year, they should all be able to use new books."

"That doesn't matter to me. There are still notes in Percy's old book, but it's a pity that he's not willing to give it to us. Charlie's books are out of date again, and they use revised versions now." George also said.

"Hello, Potter." Ginny squeezed out from between Fred and George and greeted Harry timidly.

She didn't go anywhere else because she knew George Fred was here to see Harry and the others.

"Good morning, Ginny." Harry nodded, remembering deeply the girl who spoke for him in Gryffindor during the Chamber of Secrets period.

"You're starting to learn prophecy, aren't you?" Ginny wanted to find some topics to talk about. Harry felt embarrassed and wanted to push his butt. He knew how to speak, but only if the other person didn't stare with that special look. he.

After Mu En gave her instructions, she turned around and left, walking through the noisy crowd like a shadow towards Knockturn Alley.

Knockturn Alley, Borgin Bock Store.

jingle--

The door of the store was slowly pushed open, and Bo Jin, who was sitting on the chair, stumbled to his feet as soon as he saw the person coming.

"Captain, you're here." He said quickly: "I'm sorry, I'm just going to visit you again after my injury is better."

At this moment, Bo Jin had a strange pendant from Africa hanging around his neck, a hat with Central Asian characteristics, and various jewelry on his body.

"It seems that you have gained a lot from your trip around the world." Mu En said, "You don't have to use words and sentences like that. It sounds awkward to me."

"That's good." Bo Jin relaxed a little and said, "Sit down."

Then he started talking about recent events.

Also took out the stone obtained from Avalon.

"It was from here that I discovered Avalon. That was a month ago, when I was in the Strait of Gibraltar, Morocco."

Mu En took the stone, and except for some breath left by Bo Jin, there was no other breath on it.

wrong.

Thinking about it, the tip of Mu En's nose twitched.

fishy smell? ! No, the fishman's spell.

"Are you looking for the fish man?" Mu En asked in turn.

Bo Jin was stunned for a moment, first looking at Mu En's cat head, and then looking at the stone in his hand.

Is your nose so sensitive? There is still relevant expertise.

"Indeed, to tell you the truth, because of my curse, I am very keen on things related to murlocs. So when I was in the Strait of Gibraltar, I approached a local mermaid tribe and wanted to know more about them. Mishin.

At first, we chatted happily, but when the priest from the other tribe showed up, his attitude changed and he wanted to take the stone away by force, saying that I had stolen items from their race. "

"Race?!" Mu En was a little surprised: "Is this stone still related to Avalon?"

"Yes, I am also very curious." A hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Bo Jin's mouth: "So. Since the other party broke the harmonious communication between us at the beginning, then I also used some less polite methods accordingly. Got some information."

Mu En didn't ask what impolite means were, just think about violence and bad things.

After all, Bo Jin is not a good person.

"So, what news did you get?"

"He said this is not Avalon." Bo Jin said, looking at Mu En with his cloudy eyes, as if he was expecting to see some surprise in the other person's eyes.

Unfortunately, Mu En just nodded calmly.

Sure enough, the captain’s knowledge

Regardless of what he was thinking, he did not dare to stop, but said slowly: "He called it - Atlantis! And his so-called race is the legendary guardian of Avalon. The Lady of the Lake.”

"The Lake Fairy of Avalon." Mu En looked thoughtful: "In Greek stories, there are also related creatures, nymphs. They are regarded as a member of the fairies, and they appear in mountains, forests, fields, and springs. , the sea and other places. It is an elf transformed by nature, usually in the form of a beautiful girl. This is exactly the same as the lake fairy who guards Avalon in Celtic mythology."

"That's what I guessed too." Borgin nodded, and then explained: "Mainly, it reminds me of something, Nick Flamel!"

Nick Flamel?

Before Bo Jin could express his thoughts, Mu En's mind was already spinning, searching for the information he knew and starting to piece together the calculations.

"After Nick Flamel obtained the Book of Abraham, he became a world-famous master of alchemy. And based on some circulating fragments of the Book of Abraham, we can know that this is a heritage from ancient Greece." Borgin's old face was filled with emotion. It's a look of excitement.

"Of course, these are my speculations based on coincidence. And this coincidence is - the elusive Avalon, which is what those mermaids call Atlantis, and Nick Flamel's safe house, the two have the same Great similarity.”

Then he inquired: "Sir, do you know how rare it is to have a mobile safe house?"

Mu En nodded, of course he knew. Whether it was Potter's old house, which Dumbledore personally took action, or No. 12 Grimmauld Place, which Black said his father used all known means to protect, they were just immovable safe houses.

When it comes to Nick Flamel's safe house, which is always elusive and seems to be scattered in subspace, it is a completely higher level of existence.

This reminded Mu En of the way he and Avalon suddenly disappeared when they were confronting each other.

And when he went to Hogwarts for the first time, during afternoon tea, he discussed with Flitwick and others about whether Atlantis was a safe house.

Although the discussion at that time did not have a specific result, it also proved that this conjecture was possible.

"Besides that, is there anything else?"

Bo Jin shook his head in embarrassment: ".I tried to look for it later, but couldn't find it."

Mu En looked at him helplessly, and finally said: "This guess is indeed very reasonable, but according to mythology, Avalon symbolizes the afterlife and the place after death. It is a mysterious paradise in the other world, led by nine fairies who are good at magic. Guarding. Now that there are fairies, where is the correlation between the afterlife and bliss? There is no such thing as Atlantis."

"Perhaps Atlantis is out of control?" Borgin said with some uncertainty: "It's like it will come to the Celtic side. And this place seems to be more than just one place, like myths from all over Europe and Africa. There is such a place, and similar ones directly regard it as one of the objects of primitive worship. The most famous one is probably Voodoo, which was derived from West Africa and spread to Haiti."

"." Mu En looked at him quietly.

"But I asked in detail later. According to their legend, as long as they can kill enough people and cause violent deaths, they can pull the city out to a certain extent." Bo Jin said quickly:

"But I haven't verified it yet. That guy said that killing them mermaids is useless. After I got out of the water, I thought about it and gave up on this plan. After all, I'm just an old guy who wants to spend his old age peacefully."

"It sounds interesting." Mu En said, "But what does this have to do with the fishmen?"

"They say that the earliest history of the fish people came from Atlantis. After that city was destroyed by the sea, some people left and went to Athens to establish the Academy of Athens. Some people chose to continue production and life underwater.

At first, these wizards used magic to protect the city, but gradually, it seemed to be related to human alchemy, and the first generation of fishmen appeared. That is what we called nymphs and nymphs in the lake at the beginning.

After the tragedy, human alchemy disappeared.

Since then, the world has been missing many demi-human races. After all, demi-human races, and even many magical creatures, are themselves creations of magic. "

Speaking of this, Mu En thought of Medusa for a moment, then thought of the Basilisk, and finally thought of Hagrid and his little babies.

"Okay." Mu En nodded helplessly: "Interesting idea, I will pay attention to it."

Then he looked up and realized something.

its not right.

He had originally decided to go find Hippasos, and it seemed that it would not be difficult to verify this conjecture.
