From Beauxbatons to Hogwarts

"Have you seen Blake, are you going to Stonehenge next?" Fudge looked at Calvin sitting opposite and asked casually.

"Ah, oh," Calvin, who was distracted, heard Fudge's words and replied, "Okay, Connelly, let's go see Stonehenge."

In fact, Calvin's mind was not on Stonehenge at all. He was now thinking about Sirius and Barty Crouch.

"Calvin, are you sure you can solve the problem of Stonehenge?" Fudge asked worriedly, "Those broken stones cost the Ministry almost [-] Galleons every month."

Seeing those galleons being taken away by the Department of Mysteries, only to be exchanged for a few bottles of unknown potions, Fudge's heart was bleeding. It was even more uncomfortable to see others taking money than him losing money.

"Connelly, I have to wait for my detailed inspection before I can make a judgment." Calvin rubbed his hands with excitement, "But I think Stonehenge won't be more challenging than the Pyramids and the Parthenon. .”

The minister's exclusive carriage soon arrived near Stonehenge. Stonehenge is currently not open to Muggle tourists, so there were not many people around. The few people around were also wizards from the Ministry of Magic.

Passing through the shielding magic set up for the Ministry of Magic, Calvin easily saw a large magic circle arranged by huge rocks not far away.

Unlike Calvin's imagination, Stonehenge is not a group of scattered stones, but rather well-proportioned and placed in a very regular manner.

Unlike the pyramids and Greek temples, Calvin did not see the traces left by time on Stonehenge, which shows that there is really magic running around Stonehenge.

Calvin looked inside and saw hundreds of huge stone arches forming several concentric circles, and at the center of the middle circle was a very large stone arch.Calvin could clearly feel that a powerful magic wave was coming from there.

"This is much more exciting than the pyramid." Calvin sighed secretly.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see these broken stones." Fudge led Calvin onto a gravel path.

However, a short wizard wearing a blue wizard robe quickly stopped Fudge and said respectfully: "Minister Fudge, why are you here? Stonehenge is very dangerous, and its scope of influence has recently expanded. If you want to come visit, you'd better provide us with enough gold galleons."

Fudge's fat, round face twitched, and he said with some dissatisfaction: "Jack Travers, I remember I just gave you ten thousand galleons last week. Don't tell me that you spent it all so quickly."

"Travers? From the Holy 28 Clan?" Calvin secretly looked at the short wizard. .

"Well, I remembered it wrong," the short Jack Travers said sarcastically, "In principle, we don't recommend you to come near Stonehenge, Minister, if it causes harm to you, it will be a big trouble. .”

"It's not like I haven't been here before." Fudge showed a bit of the majesty of a minister.

"Then this strange wizard shouldn't be a member of the Ministry of Magic, right?" Seeing that he couldn't stop Fudge, Travers turned to look at Calvin, who was silent. "Then I think he shouldn't be able to get close to Stonehenge."

Calvin glanced at him coldly, waiting for Fudge to make a move.

Fortunately, Fudge did not disappoint him, "Travers, I don't remember any law that stipulates that wizards other than members of the Ministry of Magic are not allowed to approach Stonehenge. Or is it that your Department of Mysteries has overridden Wizenga It’s over the top.”

Travers soon lost his composure and said coldly: "I also kindly remind you that too many wizards who overestimated their capabilities died because of Stonehenge."

Then he stared at Calvin: "Your name is Calvin, right? I hope you can still have dinner today." After that, he turned and left.

Calvin looked at Travers walking away, raised his eyebrows, and said, "What a domineering Department of Mysteries. I thought he was the Minister of Magic."

"Huh," Fudge ignored Calvin's weirdness, "Let's go."

The two quickly arrived at the outermost edge of Stonehenge. Calvin was about to take a closer look at the stones that made up Stonehenge, but found that Fudge was at least 50 feet away and did not dare to take a step closer.

"Connelly, won't you come in?" Calvin asked.

"No, no." It was obvious that Fudge was a little nervous. "Stonehenge is really dangerous to me. Calvin, you should be careful."

Calvin nodded, and then began to look at these giant stones carefully.

Although it looks like a large unprocessed stone from a distance, when you get closer you can see that it is covered with various weird patterns.

Calvin recognized it at a glance. It was an ancient magic text.

But unfortunately, Calvin's knowledge base is not enough to discern the specific meaning of these magic words.

Calvin took out a piece of parchment and prepared to record the graphics of these magic words and go back to show it to professionals.

However, when he finished drawing these magic words, the entire parchment spontaneously ignited. Calvin didn't even have time to use the freezing spell to save it, and the entire parchment was destroyed.

"It's kind of interesting. It even has a self-destruct program." Calvin took out another piece of parchment, cast the All-Ending Curse in advance, and then successfully copied the ancient magic text on the boulder onto the parchment.

Calvin carefully placed his right hand on the boulder and began to examine the inside of the boulder.Sure enough, there is another mystery inside the stone, and there is an alchemical core in the center.

Rough, yes, but certainly an alchemical core.

This was Calvin's specialty, and he easily understood the function of this alchemical core - stability.

Stablize?

A hint of doubt arose in Calvin's mind.

He quickly came into contact with other boulders around him and discovered that all the stones had an alchemical core inside them that had a stabilizing effect.

Calvin explored the interior of Stonehenge again and found a boulder in the third to last circle. The alchemical core inside it had been damaged.Calvin took a step back to observe this special stone, and soon discovered a pool of blue-purple potion at the root of the boulder.

"This should be the potion that Fudge said the Department of Mysteries used to suppress the magic of Stonehenge." Calvin squatted down, dipped his fingers into the potion, put it under his nose, smelled it, and analyzed its composition. .

These are the three main ingredients: dragon's blood, moonstone, and Moscon grass juice. There are also some auxiliary medicinal materials that we will analyze later.Calvin took out the crystal bottle and prepared to take some potion back with him.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you, it's a Ministry of Magic secret."

A voice interrupted Calvin's movements.

Calvin stood up and looked at the man in front of him who was no more than 30 years old, with brown hair, tall body and handsome face.

"Hello, my name is Byron MacMillan," the man stretched out his right hand, "I am the Muteer of Mysteries in charge of Stonehenge."

McMillan is another member of the sacred 28 clan.
