"Publish the commission..."
Karkus's eyes widened in surprise, with astonishment written on his face. However, as a smart man, he obviously knew what to ask and what not to ask. After a few seconds of silence, he suppressed his surprise. , showing enthusiasm again,
"Okay, no problem at all, Mr. Blaine!"
Kakus turned the book to the last page, and a brand new quill floated from Kakus' pocket into his hand. After writing the word "Golden Viper" heavily on the header of the page, Kakus Si raised his head and asked
"What are your needs?"
"I'm hoping someone can provide some precise location of the Druids and the cult's contemporary cults... or maybe a clue."
Amosta said calmly.
"Druids?"
Kakus's black pupils swayed, and he subconsciously expressed his doubts.
"These religious people don't have much dealings with wizards... You... Oh, those guys who wanted help exploring magic ruins and were looking for you were Druids?"
Amosta did not answer the question, but silence was also an answer.
"Is the spoils divided equally?"
Kacus asked cautiously, relying on his friendship with Jin Viper.
"Do you have to ask in such detail, Foley?" Amosta's tone became dangerous.
"Oh, sorry, of course that's not the case -" Karkus laughed a few times, "Okay... looking for the activity traces of Druidism and contemporary priests, um... then, Mr. Blaine, the mission cycle is about How long will it last, and how much are you prepared to pay for it?"
"The task cycle is considered to be one year, and it will automatically become invalid upon expiration. Of course, within a year, if I meet those guys first, I will write to you to tell you to cancel the commission, and the reward will be..."
Amosta was hesitant. The last time he returned to the orphanage, he left most of the money behind. Now, he only had a mere two thousand gold galleons on him.
To be honest, this task is not as easy as imagined.
Wizards live in a relatively independent magical world, and religious forces like the Holy See have a closer relationship with the Muggle world. The two do not communicate with each other, and it is really difficult to look for Druidism that may appear around the world. .
"If anyone can find a member of the Druid sect, I will pay five hundred gold galleons. If there is a clue to the location of the sect's priest, I will pay two thousand gold galleons."
"Two thousand gold galleons? This is not a small amount!" Karkus immediately became excited, grabbed the quill and scribbled on the paper, writing down Amosta's request word for word, Then, he scratched his cheek awkwardly,
"Sorry, Mr. Brain, my rule here is that if you issue a task, you must first pay half of the reward and put it with me as a deposit..."
Amosta's face immediately darkened, and he reluctantly took out his money bag from his robe. He has always made money from Karkus Foley, and this is the first time he has given money to him. !
"Curious about that?"
"Oh, are you done, Professor Blaine?"
Harry suddenly came to his senses when he was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. He retracted his gaze and stared at the strange tall tower that was so dark that it almost blended into the cave. After speaking subconsciously, he nodded hesitantly.
"I don't quite understand, Professor, how could a wizard build a tower underground? What is it used for?"
"I can take you to visit, Potter, that's a 'place of interest' here!"
Amosta, who suddenly felt poor, hugged Harry's shoulders eagerly and said.
This is located at the innermost corner of the fan-shaped cave. The two shrinking rock walls meet here, making the space very narrow. Therefore, except for some foreign wizards who have never been to the underground world, they will come to admire this mysterious tower. Besides, 'locals' generally don't appear here.
Accompanied by Professor Blaine, Harry arrived in front of this black tower.
The surface of the black stone building the tower is very rough, and it looks like it has been aged for a long time. The shape of the tower is a bit like the spire of the Hogwarts Castle tower, but the shape is much older.
"No one knows exactly when this tower was built. People only know that this tower has been standing here since this cave far from the ground has been haunted."
Harry's palms brushed against the cold stone surface, and a mysterious aura filled his heart.
"Then do people know who it is...oh," he asked midway through the question. Thinking of what Professor Blaine said on the ground, Harry understood. "Is it Merlin?"
Harry didn't have any special feelings about Merlin, a wizard who lived an unknown number of years ago. The only things he knew about Merlin were the 'Medal of Merlin' and 'Merlin's Beard'. ..Oh, there is also the 'Merlin's Commemorative Coin' that Professor Brain gave Ron.
When he first entered the underground world, Amosta, like all the 'newcomers', was curious about this black stone tower. Like all the wizards who had entered here for thousands of years, he tried to blast it away with magic spells. Although he had passed this high tower, no matter how hard he tried, this mysterious black tower was still not damaged at all, and not even a little bit of stone debris fell.
"You're right, Potter—"
Amosta took a few steps back and stared calmly at the spire that towered into the dome. Originally, he had lost interest in this tower, but after his trip to Avalon Island, he regained some curiosity about it. Heart,
"There has always been a rumor circulating here. People believe that this tower is the cemetery where Merlin was finally buried. Moreover, Merlin left unimaginable treasures in his cemetery. If you get these treasures, you can have them." Comparable to the power of the gods in mythology.”
"The power of the gods...didn't the wizard here try to open it?"
Harry sneered at this statement. He turned back and looked in the direction of the pet market, his eyes full of disgust. He raised his voice and asked, somehow, he suddenly remembered the Slytherin's secret room in the school.
"Look at your feet, Potter—"
Amosta pointed at the bumpy ground and smiled, "These are all traces left by those who tried to use magic spells to open the tower... It is a pity that no one has successfully shaken the tower."
The 'no one' in Professor Brain's words obviously included himself. Even a wizard like him couldn't do anything about this cold black tower. This made Harry more curious about the tower. Just as he was studying it When he looked at the long and narrow hole in the dark tower door, which was much larger than the normal keyhole, he heard Professor Blaine say again,
"...Of all the things rumored to be related to Merlin, this tower is the most authentic. Since many years ago, the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic has been trying every means to get this tower back to the Ministry as a The precious cultural relics were protected, but unfortunately, they tried all kinds of methods and failed to move the Black Stone Tower even an inch, so they had no choice but to give up this plan..."
