Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 777
"Wait, what is that?"
The words of Old Eun suddenly eased the atmosphere that had become quite tense, and Old Eun's sight moved from Maca's face to Maca's right hand.
No, to be more precise, it was actually the staff that had just been taken out in Maca's right hand.
"Long rod wand," Maca said while still keeping the vigilance he deserved. "Although the short wand has become a mainstream one since your time a thousand years ago, I think at least Much more, right? What's wrong?"
"Of course I know the long rod rod," Old Eun said, struggling to sit on the armrest of the wheelchair so that he could sit more straight. "I want to ask, on the top rock, What was engraved?"
This staff is basically made with the materials from the basilisk. It can be said that it has been with Maca for a lot of time. In fact, many changes have been made during the use.However, that was nothing more than an improvement of the rune pattern carved on his staff.
As for the pattern carved on the top stone of the staff, it is naturally the same.
"Since you ask, I think you know it." Maca considered the words in his heart, and carefully changed part of it into words.
But after hearing this, Old Eun just shook his head, but the magical fluctuations that had been fully active in his body gradually calmed down.
"Ancient runes that symbolize the rules of truth," the old man said slowly, "...Of course, I only know that Rowena calls them that way, and I don't know anything else."
"Yes, this is the rule rune," Maca followed the other party's words, "one of them."
Although he said so, in essence, he merely repeated the old man's words briefly, without mentioning any other information.
For Maca, the knowledge of rule runes is a secret.
If someone other than him obtains this secret, then knowledge is no longer just knowledge, they are more likely to become a huge danger no less than the source of those disasters.
"So," Old Eun nodded as if he was sure of something, "You were indeed selected by Rowena and her three friends..."
The old man didn't say anything, he just cast his gaze straight into Maca's eyes when he said this.
Maca knew that the other party wanted him to complete that sentence.
"...Alternatives," Maca said calmly, "I have entered Rowena's secret room."
"Sure enough!" Eun's eyes flashed clearly, but then more hesitation arose, "But, in that case, you should have been to Salazar's secret room, and... why didn't you know Sa What about Racha’s backing for'that man'?"
After hearing that the old man mentioned Salazar Slytherin's so-called "backhand" again, Maca was actually more confused than the other party.
He always felt that there must be something he had missed in it, but apart from Ens's matter, he couldn't think of any relevant clues for a while.
"I can only say about this... It seems that there can be more than two candidates at the same time," Maca said casually, and then turned to ask, "What exactly are you talking about'backhand'? What are the alternatives to guard against?"
It is rare to catch an insider, and it feels like an insider who is willing to say a few more words, so Maca naturally has to ask a few more questions.
However, Old Eun shook his head decisively.
"I don't know," he said frankly. "It was discussed by Rowena and her three friends together. She didn't let me know too much... She just told me that it would be a solution If it is not an unavoidable disaster, no one should try to understand it."
At this point, Old Eun's face suddenly became faint and gloomy.
"Once some truth is touched blindly,
"The worst ending..."
Maca chewed on this sentence, and involuntarily thought of the content mentioned at the end of the original "Book of Sin".Although it is only a few words that are not very clear, the "loneliness" and "fear" contained in it are beyond doubt.
"Yes, the'worst ending'." The old man repeated this sentence again, "I don't know what that specifically means, but I know that it must be far more serious than the death of a person. Much!"
"What do you mean?"
Hearing this strange statement, Maca couldn't help frowning, but Old Eun seemed to be immersed in some kind of feelings, and there was not much expression on his face that was not full of years.
"It means it literally," he said lightly, "maybe you don't know, but I can tell you... Rowena actually committed suicide in the first place."
This is obviously another big news.
As far as Maca knows, among the many historical documents in the magic world, the death of Rowena Ravenclaw is a controversial matter.
In the 11th century, this outstanding witch, one of the four founders of Hogwarts, died somehow early, and there was no official record from beginning to end.
Some people say that she died of an unusually serious illness, and it was the departure of Salazar Slytherin, who was best at potions, that made her lose her last hope of survival.
There is also a legend that she actually died of a heart disease, and daughter Helena stole her golden crown and went away, but both lost her life with Barrow who was sent to find her.
But now, the "Eun Ravenclaw" in front of Maca told him that Rowena's death was actually a suicide.
"Let’s not talk about it for now," Old Eun sighed slightly after a long pause, "Since you are indeed a candidate, then you are right... Maybe as you said, the candidate is also There may be more than one, which is indeed in line with Rowena's prepared character philosophy."
In any case, being able to continue to speak well is what Maca wants.
Seriously, he didn't want to be an enemy with this old man-at least he didn't want to start with him too early.After all, he is still unable to determine the actual strength of the opponent, blindly hostile is not advisable.
Of course, when facing an unreasonable guy like Helbo, the other party often has the only option of "hostile".
Unless, standing in front of Helbo is a fool with no sense of crisis.
"So?" Maca asked after hearing it.
"So, didn't you just say it?" The old man said bluntly, "Salazar's backhand failed to put'him' to death, so it's my turn for this'backup plan' to appear... Maybe it It will inevitably make you feel ridiculous, but I have to say that when we cannot find the second way, the ridiculous way will become our last choice."
Having said that, he sorted out his clues for a while before continuing: "Once'he' is resurrected again, he will inevitably look for the ancient mirror that originally belonged to him... Back then, Salazar used the Bewitching Tablet to remove it. It was smashed into fragments, and Rowena sealed the fragment somewhere underground to prevent it from being automatically assembled."
"The first step we must do now is to find it out!"
When Eun was saying these things, Maca's heart was still very delicate.Or in other words, it was a subtle feeling with sporadic doubts.
What he was puzzled was that in Eun’s words, he could not find any disagreement between Salazar Slytherin and Rowena; and what he felt deeply subtle was the two things the other party said. It's all in his hands now!
However, the doubts are just doubts. After all, Maca has not fully believed whether the old man is really the Eun Ravenclaw himself.
When a huge pile of unknowns suddenly piles up in front of you, apart from doubt, you really can't let yourself have other thoughts.
"Didn't Rowena tell you where she hid things?" Maca asked casually while wondering.
"Yes, I think it depends mainly on you," Old Eun said calmly, "because, although she didn't tell me the specific location... But she once said that the clue is in Hogwarts Castle."
Is there any clue, isn't it the "Eris Mirror" that was already broken?Although Maca hadn't noticed any traces of geographic location at the beginning, the fragments of the mirror were still in the bag on Maca's waist and could be studied again at any time.
"Yes," Maca answered calmly, "I'll look for it."
"Very well, I hope the plan can proceed smoothly. I have been waiting for this day...I have been waiting for thousands of years!" The old man said as he coughed a few times, his face became more tired. .
"Of course, this plan itself is destined to be in a hurry..."
While speaking, he suddenly glanced at the direction of the sentry tower not far away.You can see that Miriam and Seaman are already coming here.
"There is one more thing I have to say--" the old man said immediately, "After leaving here, you and I will remain enemies. Don't underestimate'that person', he may choose anyone he can control and try to resurrect. ! Whether it is threats, inducements or deception..."
At the end, he emphatically said: "Remember, be careful of those around you at all times."
Needless to say, Maca has always paid attention to this.Helbo is not Voldemort, but that guy is a living fossil of the magic world that has lived for thousands of years, even if the other party resorts to any means, Maca will not be surprised.
He can kill the other party once by the unequal amount of information, but he cannot guarantee that it will be the same next time.
"It's a tricky problem."
A trace of fatigue passed through Maca's eyes.
