I wield a sword at Hogwarts

Now when I get to the door, I can't get in.

John was also speechless.

"Thankfully I'm an alchemist."

John obtained enough materials from the darkroom. He sat down cross-legged and took out the materials one by one.

The material was melted and changed by the golden flame in his hands. The body of the hourglass was made of underground crystal.

John does not have an underground crystal, but he can synthesize a carrier that carries the power of time from other materials.

John took a soul out of the soul lamp and poured it into the hourglass.

The soul was crushed and turned into silver sand, flowing in the hourglass.

John held the wand in his left hand and drew a Möbius strip engraved on the hourglass.

The power of time is continuously amplified through the soul.

With a clap of his hands, John completed the last step of repairing the hourglass.

Growing a tail to hook the soul lamp, John held the snake-eye gem in his right hand and flipped the hourglass in his left hand.

I saw that illusory door gradually changing as the sand in the hourglass fell.

"Using time as a condition for opening, this is a wizard who is proficient in forbidden magic."

It was an eye-opener for John. If it had been anyone else, he would have been trapped in the broken hourglass and could not pass it. Only someone who was also proficient in forbidden magic could be qualified to enter.

"Time, alchemy, I am more and more looking forward to what I can encounter in it."

There was excitement hidden in John's eyes. As a wizard, he not only had the power of Slytherin, but also had an adventurous spirit that was not inferior to that of Gryffindor.

Things that could be solved easily were not adventures for him.

Only this kind of thing, which requires him to concentrate on it wholeheartedly, can excite him.

As the sand in the hourglass gradually runs out, the illusory door gradually solidifies.

The eyes of the statue with a human face and a snake body standing outside moved, as if spying on the visitor.

John felt eyes falling on him. He looked back and his eyes turned back as if nothing happened.

…

Chapter 525 Hello, human-faced snake

The door between reality and fiction.

The hourglass is the key that opens the door, allowing the existence of this door to be traced back to a specific area.

John knew that the person who could leave behind such alchemical tools was definitely powerful.

"A wizard as powerful as Dumbledore."

Several names flashed through his mind. In the history that John knew, there were very few wizards who could do this.

Ambrosius was one, and John's time magic benefited greatly from Ambrosius.

But this place does not seem to be where Ambrosius appears.

Even though he is a Merlin, he will not cross the ocean to settle here.

Furthermore, the specific number of Merlin Johns cannot be confirmed, and it is possible that another Merlin is here.

Merlin is like a rule. When magic is born, Merlin will exist.

No matter which one it is, you won’t know until you go in.

The door was completely solid, and John reached out to touch it.

His fingers touched the door, but he didn't go through.

Pushing hard, the door was slowly opened.

Revealing a passage behind the door.

This is a pyramid at a point in time.

"Set a time anchor so that people from any period can go back to the exact period."

Seeing how it was done, John thought it was a genius idea.

Step inside.

After entering, there is a wall painting depicting many periods.

John stared at the wizard wearing a pharaoh's headdress and holding a snake staff.

Place the snake-eye gem in front of your eyes and the mural disappears, replaced by a stone door.

There are many snakes intertwined on the stone gate.

John stepped forward and pushed, and was locked.

Pulling out his wand, John cast the lock-picking spell.

“Alobomora”

There was the sound of gears turning at the stone gate, and the snakes entwined above untied themselves and bit their tails.

As the sound stops, all the snakes turn into ouroboros biting their tails.

This pattern is seen as endless without end.

The stone door slowly opened, revealing the steep stairs behind it.

Each step of the ladder is extremely narrow, and even the soles of your feet can only step on half of it.

John went down the stairs, never taking off his snake-eye gem.

The soul lantern is hooked on the tail, bringing light in the tunnel.

After walking for nearly an hour, light appeared in front of his eyes.

John held the wand in his left hand and placed the snake-eye gem in his right eye with his right hand.

Walking into the light, there is just a long corridor.

Looking up from the space, a snake-like passage appeared above.

It was like a space with no distinction between up and down. John put down the snake-eye gem, and the top of his head became a ceiling.

"Sure enough, this place is full of illusion and reality."

John tapped the current passage with his wand. It was no different from the inside of an ordinary pyramid.

He walked towards the passage, and the roads and doors that were not in front of him all appeared to the naked eye.

Go to a room with a half-open door and enter. There are many tomb objects belonging to Egyptian culture placed inside.

"If you want to reach the real tomb, I'm afraid you need to constantly switch between reality and reality."

John knew in his heart that the unknown wizard was a very interesting person.

John smiled slightly, "Since you want to play, then I will accompany you."

He found some golden beetles in the tomb, stuffed them into his pocket, and took out the snake-eye gem to look at them.

The original room instantly turned into a dangerous single-plank bridge.

John stood on the log, the soul lamp on his tail lighting up the bottom.

That's where the danger lies, full of spikes.

Putting the snake-eye gem down, John walked towards the other door in the room.

When I opened the door, the paint turned to dust and gave off a choking smell.

He held his nose and walked in, placing the snake-eye gem on his eyes.

The scene changed, and he silently remembered the location. After walking over, he put down the snake-eye gem again.

As he continued to repeat his movements, John got closer and closer to the real room.

Due to the switching between illusion and reality, he sometimes almost fell out of the passage.

Putting down the snake-eye gem again, John had arrived at a place with a stone bridge.

At the end of the stone bridge is a stone house composed of many columns.

In the house, countless treasures were placed inside.

John is watching from a snake-eye perspective, and the bridge turns into a long pipe.

Whether it is the naked eye or the snake's eye, the road points to the stone house.

John walked forward. The pipe was smooth, as if something was crawling all year round.

This scene was somewhat familiar to John.

Hogwarts sewers.

"Are there any large animals raised here?"

John mused.

Through the pipe, he reached the stone house supported by columns.

After entering, the mountains of gold coins exuded an attractive luster.

After seeing it, John didn't go up directly, but tapped the ground with his wand.

The super-sensible spell is activated.

The entire stone house scene entered John's vision.

His eyes narrowed slightly, this was really a link.

Behind the treasure are countless mechanisms, and the gold coins on them are weights. As long as too many gold coins are lost, the mechanism will be activated.

Next to the gold coin, there is a sentence.

"Greedy people, you should learn to give up."

But John was certain that few people would choose to listen to the warning of a person who had been dead for who knows how long after seeing such a huge amount of money.

After walking past the mountains of gold coins, John came to the center surrounded by columns.

Picking up the snake-eye gem, he saw a downward passage on the flat floor.

On those columns, many doors also appeared at this time.

The font next to the gold coins changes.

"Choose to face it or escape it."

John jumped directly to the floor.

His body kept falling.

The body fell onto a mat that seemed to be stacked up by hundreds of layers of quilts.

John looked down and saw layers of huge snake sloughs covering the ground.

This made it extremely difficult for him to walk.

Standing up, he put down the snake-eye gem, and his feet turned into bones again.

All those bones were smashed to pieces, probably caused by accidentally letting go of the snake-eye gem on the way down.

Stepping over a skull, a path appeared before John's eyes.

Inside the Snake Eyes Gem, there is a dead end road on the other side, with a bottomless cliff in the middle.

On the opposite side of the cliff, there is a statue.

John walked the real path.

I trigger some mechanisms on the way, as if I want to say hello to you.

The lack of mechanisms along the way will make people relax. These sudden mechanisms have created the bones on both sides of the road.

For a wizard, John had his own way of evading traps.
