Hogwarts: The Greatest Wizard - Chapter 295

c295 293 The time-turner

A few days passed,

Finny’s injuries were mostly healed, and everything was the same as before. At this time, Finny learned about Lisa’s sacrifice, and went to St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries to see Sirius who was unconscious and covered with scars. After finding Lisa’s body, he gathered all his men in Lisa’s manor, and then hunted the Death Eaters on a large scale.

Finally, we headed to the Parkinson family’s manor.

“It’s time for me to take action,”

In the evening, Feeney looked at the white smoke flying in the sky due to his actions, as well as the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic who were urgently dealing with the memories of these Muggles who saw this scene, put on his coat and walked out of Grimmauld Place House number twelve.

He walked slowly to the street where the British Ministry of Magic was located, and saw the dilapidated phone booth.

However, Feeney did not choose to enter the Ministry of Magic through this normal route, but chose to sneak across.

After all, he came here to do something illegal, to invade the Department of Mysteries and steal a time brick changer. It would be unreasonable to enter the Ministry of Magic through normal channels.

Feeney glanced at the Ministry of Magic hidden behind the phone booth, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he apparated and disappeared.

Not all places have the same taboo against Apparition as Hogwarts. This forbidden magic is not so easy to use.

The Aurors of the Ministry of Magic have a way of apparating within a controlled area within a certain period of time. However, they cannot stay as long as in Hogwarts. Therefore, the British Ministry of Magic does not prohibit the use of phantoms. Apparating here, some of their employees use this magic on their way to and from get off work.

The next moment, Feeney appeared directly at his destination, the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic. There was only one all-black door in the corridor leading to the Department of Mysteries. Push it open, walk in, and you will enter the mystery. The Department of Affairs is known as the most mysterious department in the Ministry of Magic.

What is inside and what Feeney will face are uncertain. Except for the silent people who work here, no one can easily enter here. Even the official of the Ministry of Magic who carries out executions can only enter here. The hall, the room with the curtain of death.

Without hesitation, Feeney lifted his foot through the threshold and entered a large circular room.

Everything in this building is black, black ceiling, black floor, black walls, and there are many black doors inlaid on the surrounding walls. These doors all look exactly the same. No mark, no handle, no way to tell which door leads to where,

The surrounding walls are dotted with candles that are twisted and extended like tree branches. The flames are blue, and the swaying cold light shines on the black marble floor and reflects a strange light, making people feel like they are standing still. An illusion on the dark water.

Feeney turned around and gently closed the door. Except for the staff on duty, this Ministry of Magic was already off duty. It can be said to be very safe, especially when the Aurors and staff who were originally stationed here were sent out. When dealing with the trouble left by Feeney,

After the door was closed, there was no light in the room except for the candles on the walls on both sides. In the dark room, there were bunches of trembling blue flames on the walls, illuminating Feeney’s shadow. It reflected on the ground, forming a very eerie shadow.

There are twelve doors around the hall, and Feeney is not sure which door is behind the room for studying time and space. As far as he knows, the time converter is stored in a room dedicated to studying time.

When he carefully looked at the black door in the hall, there was a sudden rumbling sound, the surrounding candles began to move to the side, and the circular wall began to rotate.

Within a few seconds, the wall was rotating rapidly, and the blue flames blurred into one piece in Feeney’s sight, like a neon tube. Then, just as suddenly as it started, the rumbling stopped. Come down, everything is calm again,

However, Feeney was certain that the doors on the surrounding walls had been moved, and each door was no longer in its original position.

At this moment, Feeney was not only unable to determine which door he was going to, he could not even determine which door he came in from. He suddenly regretted closing that door.

Taking a deep breath, Feeney knew that he couldn’t wait where he was. Now was not the time to look for the exit, but the time to look for the room where the time turner was stored.

So he raised his wand and came to a door. He placed his left hand on the cold door, ready to attack immediately if there was danger as soon as the door opened.

The door was pushed open all of a sudden. There was no danger inside as Fini imagined, but only a bright light.

In fact, this room is not very bright, but compared with the darkness in the hall, the few lights hanging from the gold chains on the ceiling are much brighter. The whole room is empty, with only a few tables and a central one. A huge glass tank, big enough for several people to swim in. Inside is a dark green liquid, with many pearly white things lying lazily in it, floating around in the water.

Are these brains?

Feeney’s heart trembled. What was the Department of Mysteries doing studying them?

Shaking his head, he is still thinking about this issue.

Feeney turned and walked out of the room, waving his wand at the door.

“flag flash”

A little, rarely used magic that leaves a mark where it is needed and stays there for a while.

Feeney continued to walk towards another door, and as before, he raised his wand and pushed open the door.

This room was a bit larger than the previous one. It was dimly lit and was a huge rectangular stone pit with a depression in the middle, about twenty feet deep.

The room was surrounded by rows of stepped stone benches. The one he was standing on was the highest and the last row.

Those stone benches extend downward at a very steep angle, like a circular theater. On the stone pit in the middle is a stone arch. It looks very old, dilapidated, and decayed. There is no wall support around the door. , with tattered black curtains, or curtains, hung on it. Although there was no breeze in the cold air, the curtains were still fluttering gently, as if they had been touched by someone. ,

Finny knew this door. It was the door to the world of death guarded by the British Ministry of Magic.

Feeney slowly walked down the stairs. He had a very mysterious intuition in his mind. He needed to get closer and see this door with his own eyes.

Feeney followed his instinct and came to the door. The curtains above the door swayed gently, as if someone had just passed through.

According to Nico, Finny was sure that Death had just passed through the door.

He just looked at it, and he had a very strange feeling in his heart, as if someone was standing on the other side of the door, staring at him intently.

The next moment, Feeney took a few steps back suddenly, with cold sweat on his forehead. Just then, he had an illusion that this ancient door was very beautiful, which gave him a very strong urge to pass through it. ,

It’s too weird here,

Feeney’s heart trembled slightly and he turned around to leave when he heard a whisper from behind the curtain,

“,,,,,,does not belong to,,,,,,world,,,,,,,wanderer,,,,,,god,,,,,,,,”

Feeney vaguely seemed to be able to recognize part of the whisper, but had no idea what it meant.

Even so, Feeney understood that he could not stay here any longer. He could maintain his sanity once or twice, but as time went by, he could not be sure that he would not be tempted to enter this door.

Nico didn’t say that this door had such a function at first.

Feeney retreated into the hall and marked the door.

Stepping in with the front foot, the wall around the back foot moved again.

After the wall stopped, Feeney casually walked to another door. It was a locked door that could not be opened no matter what, not violence, brute force, or magic.

Time was running out, and Feeney didn’t intend to waste any more time with it. After making a completely different mark than before, Feeney set his target on other doors.

Inside the next door he opened was a beating light that shone like a diamond. There were various clocks, big clocks, small clocks, grandfather clocks, and travel clocks, hanging in the gaps between the bookshelves. , or placed on those room-long tables,

When he saw this scene, Feeney knew that he had found the right place. This was where the Department of Mysteries studied time.

Feeney walked in gently. The clock faces were shining brightly, and there was a continuous and busy ticking sound everywhere, as if thousands of little feet were walking around. It was the sound of time passing by. The sound of the clock beating was so clear and definite that Feeney would never know the passage of time had he not come to this room.

He walked forward along the narrow gap between the tables. A bell-shaped crystal jar almost as tall as him stood on the table beside him.

Inside is a tumbling, sparkling airflow. In the center of the cover are some floating, small eggs as bright as gems. They crack, and hummingbird-like creatures appear. Inside this cover. It flies, then changes back to the original little egg, hatches, changes back, and so on.

There are many rooms in this room, or in other words, there are many rooms in each room. Feeney knows that his destination is one of these rooms, but this time, maybe it doesn’t need to be as complicated as before. Looking for it,

Because there are some imperceptible marks on the door in the room, such as this room marked like a crystal ball, which contains those crystal balls that have been predicted for the future.

As a department that studies time, these prophecy balls are good materials for their research.

On the other side, there is a door with an hourglass mark, which is Feeney’s destination.

The room where the time turner is stored,

Feeney opened the door and walked in. There were also various clocks inside, but unlike the ones outside, the clocks here all had some golden brilliance.

In the middle of the room is a huge hourglass. Feeney, who has used a time turner, knows clearly that that is what a time turner looks like. It looks like it is a huge time turner.

However, Feeney didn’t know the function of such a huge time turner. According to its size and magic power, if nothing unexpected happened, it could even send a person to a thousand years ago.

In the corners of the room, there are cabinets with glass doors. Inside the cabinets are those tiny hourglass pendants with golden brilliance. Those are time turners.

Ever since this magical prop was invented, many wizards would have one on hand. When in danger, they would turn it to change the past.

This has resulted in a long period of history and a very unstable and chaotic timeline in the history of the wizarding world.

Later, the Presbyterian Council decided to collect all time turners for collection, and at the same time destroyed all the books on how to make time turners in the entire magical world, leaving only one copy used by the Presbyterian Council for collection records, and the Department of Mysteries. A part of it used to study the mystery of time.

In the past hundred years, there have been hundreds of thousands of time turners in the entire UK, if not millions. These have been placed in the cabinets in this room.

Feeney walked to a cabinet and tried to open it to take away a time turner, but no matter how hard he tried, the cabinet could not be opened.

Feeney frowned. This situation was expected by him. After all, it is impossible for the Department of Mysteries to have good protective measures for such important things. But, how is he going to get them now?

After thinking for a moment, Feeney raised his wand and pointed it at a glass cabinet door.

“Torn apart.”

As the magic power concentrated on the snakewood staff became stronger and stronger, Feeney launched the magic spell.

This glass door cabinet is concentrated.

The cabinet immediately shattered, and when the time turner inside was about to fall to the ground, it was caught by the levitation spell used by Finny’s left hand and did not break.

Feeney controlled one of these time turners and flew it into his pocket,

The rest is still floating in the air,

Sure enough, just as he thought, the smashed cabinet returned to its original appearance the next moment, and the time turners floating in the air also flew back to their original positions, except for the one in Feeney’s pocket. Mei told Feeney that what just happened was not an illusion.
