Noah walked around the giant tree, then jumped high onto a thick trunk. He climbed up the trunk, and finally stopped near the crown of the tree.
There was a familiar magic reaction here, and it turned out to be another Philosopher's Stone.
Since there is a Philosopher's Stone, the magic here should still be running smoothly.
He tapped the trunk of the tree with his wand.
Keya stuck his head out from his collar and let out a "hissing" sound in response.
The opening spell here is "open the door" in snake language. In other words, this is a place where only snakes or wise snakes can enter.
As Keya read the command to open the door, the thick tree trunk suddenly swayed with layers of ripples. The poisonous mist that diffused here began to recede, and everything in front of him began to become clear.
But when everything became clear, the mud swamp behind the trees had disappeared, and was replaced by an eerie old castle.
This castle has been around for some time, and its style is an extremely old and monotonous column style. The construction technique can also be called rough, and it is made up of large gray hard stones neatly stacked together.
Most of the windows in the castle have no glass and appear empty. Wet vines and moss grew wantonly between the stone cracks, making the castle look precarious.
Looking beyond the low walls surrounding the castle, you can also see the huge snake sculpture standing in front of the castle. The snake is circling, and the tips of the snake scales on its back are raised. It looks like some sharp bone spurs, with long A feathered snake head is raised high and spits out a snake message, as if staring at the sky.
There is no poisonous gas here, and Keya can finally breathe freely.
Noah jumped directly from the tree, landed on the head of the stone sculpture, used some strength, and jumped again before landing in front of the castle.
This is simply Keya’s home court.
Koya hissed again, and the gate of the castle that had been silent for thousands of years finally opened again.
Dust and stone chips fall heavily, and a mixture of dampness and musty smell pours into the nasal cavity, which can drive people out in minutes. Noah subconsciously held his breath and cast four cleaning spells in succession to clean up the smell. The dust was cleared away with spells, and Noah cast another drying spell to finally give the castle a somewhat proper feel.
Clusters of fire ignited spontaneously, barely illuminating the entire hall, but it seemed empty. There was no furniture or decorations, only the "Y" shaped staircase facing the door.
He spent more than an hour getting familiar with the castle. It was not full of secret passages like Hogwarts, but it had a very deep basement.
In addition, he also found the library. Most of the books in it can no longer be read due to improper preservation, but some magic books have been preserved, although most of the magic books are black magic books.
The black magic books here are much more "lively" than those in Hogwarts. The moment Noah entered the library, these sleeping little guys were suddenly awakened. Several books immediately fluttered like moths. It generally rushed toward Noah's face, and the gaps between the pages were filled with sharp teeth like teeth. No one would doubt the consequences of being bitten.
Noah didn't expect such a door-to-door attack, but he reacted quickly. The shadow cloak waved in a graceful arc, knocking all the books that were thrown at him to the ground, and several more lines extended from the shadows on the ground. Ropes tied several books firmly to the ground.
The pages of the black magic book bit hard at the magic ropes, but these seemingly slender ropes were actually quite strong, and no matter how hard they bit, they had no effect.
Noah looked at it and then hooked up a shadow rope and pulled up a book. There was a strange green ghost face on the cover of the book, and the fangs protruded and looked very scary.
But when Noah used a little bit of intimidation magic, this black magic book that bullied the weak and feared the strong immediately put away its fangs and allowed Noah to open the book.
It is a black magic book that Noah has never read, and the contents in it are relatively crude. They are all dangerous psychedelic spells, including spells that use poison barriers to create illusions.
Yes, it's the kind of magic outside this castle.
Noah is simple
Looking through other books, the variety of black magic books here is not very rich. Some of them may have been removed. Most of the ones left here are about the black magic of Snake Laoqiang, such as summoning and driving dead snakes. Corpses, anything to get the venom of a venomous snake or even make yourself possess the venom, and how to raise a basilisk.
The snake-lao accent part was obviously of no use to Noah, but the illusion aspect was still quite interesting.
Noah picked through it and packed several books to take back and read carefully.
Although he still wanted to explore some more, dawn was approaching and Noah had to go back.
There are still many places in this castle that need to be explored carefully, and he will probably spend the next holiday nights here.
…
Noah, who hadn't slept all night, naturally didn't have much energy all day.
Christina was keenly aware that her son didn't seem to have slept well last night, so she couldn't help but grimace: "Noah, what did you do last night?"
Noah: "..."
Noah tried to fool him by widening his eyes, but his mother was unexpectedly perceptive in some aspects and was not fooled.
So Noah could only find a more reliable excuse. He obediently took out the alchemy object he had made in the past two days and placed it on the table.
"What is this?" Christina narrowed her eyes.
"I just heard that you wanted a magic item," Noah explained, "so I made a little toy using alchemy."
When it comes to whose money is best earned, it must be women and children.
The witches' favorite beauty potion is always a bestseller, not to mention other luxuries.
Children's toys or snacks are also profitable products. But the toys in the wizarding world are relatively simple. You can see it from the way Noah spends time in school. In addition to showing off character cards that are popular among wizards, they are wizard chess or wizard marbles. It seems that only exciting sports such as "Quidditch" are popular due to too barren forms of entertainment.
It is not difficult to improve this situation. The board games from his previous life are the best choice.
In addition, what Noah wants to improve most is the communication method of wizards.
Owls or floo networks are not very convenient, and Noah is already working on the specific ideas, but in fact he has not yet thought of the form of the alchemy item, so he has not yet made a finished product.
But for wizards... maybe the most suitable communication medium is a "mirror"? Forget about the crystal ball, it’s not very convenient to carry around.
