Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Some scholars once said that the ancient civilization of magic is the ancient civilization of mankind. Although this argument is quite one-sided, it also illustrates some issues from a side perspective.

During the heyday of ancient magic, the establishment and demise of many civilizations were inseparable from the rise and fall of magic itself. And sorcerers around the world, just like those civilizations that emerge endlessly, have various forms and details.

Under the current tide of history, it can be said that the alchemy, which had been flourishing in ancient times, was almost shattered. But if compared with the modern magic that has repeatedly undergone tortuous changes to adapt to the changing times, the remaining pieces of knowledge can actually retain the ancient style.

Now, when Maca watched the alchemists who came to Hogwarts from all corners of the world, he couldn't help but sigh "eye-opening".

The so-called "alchemy" is actually the theory and practice of studying the conversion between "matter and matter" and "matter and spirit". It might be too abstract to say this, and it would be much simpler and clearer to give them examples using modern magic.

For example, the conversion of matter and matter is actually a permanent version of the metamorphosis; while the conversion of matter and spirit can be roughly equalized with spiritual magic.

Of course, this is just an example. In terms of practical applications, according to the specific knowledge of the above two general directions, even potions, astronomy, arithmetic and divination can be included.

That's why I said that in the period when the knowledge of alchemy was the most complete, it could even be divided into a large theoretical system of magic, rather than a mere subject.

However, even if Nicole LeMay is still alive today, I am afraid that it cannot be organized into a "magic system". Since ancient times, how many things that have been crushed by the wheels of history can be put together intact?

Only a few of the residues under those wheels were fortunately stuck to the wheels, and mixed with other things as the times advanced. Just like modern potions, there are also some theoretical formulas that are inherited from alchemy and passed down from generation to generation.

"Everyone from the African magic community, please follow this Mr. Filch and Hogwarts has prepared a rest room for you ..."

Shemaka is standing in the school's vestibule, greeting the members of the African delegation that arrived today. Most of these members graduated from Vagadu, the only magic school in the African magic world, but it seems that some strange guys are mixed in.

This is actually very easy for Maca to distinguish.

金 Ajimbad, the current president of the International Federation of Wizards, was a student of the Wakadu Magic School. Before in France, he shared some recent developments in the African magic world with Maca and others at the table.

Most of the students from Wagado today are in an international state, and they are not very different from British wizards. But to say that the tribal sorcerers are scattered, we can only say that they are strange and strange.

如 Like the guys in front of the delegation:

One had a large number of pupa feathers on his head, covered with red mud; one covered only a rag apron, and an oversized mask of wood carving was worn on his face; and one was worn Full of colorful weird clothing, not even an inch of skin.

The most worrisome thing to Maca was an old witch in a large brown cloak. Her face was smeared with finely colored natural pigments, and with the same colorful crutches in her hands, there was a string of scary things that were obviously skulls.

Maca could sense that the old witch was spreading a strange and powerful strange magic wave.

At this moment, the old witch who had followed the crowd in the direction of the castle seemed to be aware of Maca's induction, but suddenly stopped to look back.

"Old ancestor, what's wrong?"

Aside from the old witch, a young witch who could almost be considered naked stopped immediately, and whispered in some African language.

Suddenly the old witch heard the words, so she took her eyes away from Maca, turned around and continued to follow the flow of people.

"Speak in English!"

开口 Her opening, she used quite fluent English, although the pronunciation is somewhat problematic, but understandable is not a problem.

"... If you want to inherit the tribe from your father, adapt as soon as possible."

"I see, the ancestor ..." The young African witch, who was just a young man, changed his tongue to lame English. "So, what did the ancestor look at just now? Is that the British who greeted us later Boy? "

"Well, didn't I teach you how to call a wizard in another country when you were in the tribe?" The old witch said, and there was a flash of genuine coldness in her eyes. "Don't underestimate that. Young man, I feel the majestic soul power in him ... "

"Majestic soul power?" The young male witch stared at him suddenly, and while surprised, he forgot to answer in English, "How many? Enough ancestors, do you have a meal?"

This time, the old witch didn't blame him, but glanced at him coldly again.

"Did you forget all of my admonitions before I set off?" The old witch slowly said with her old voice, "If you don't want to die, immediately forget those rituals that violate the prohibition ..."

I'm honest, at this time the old witch's heart was also full of greed. But after all, she is the most inscrutable wizard in the tribe. Only when she can use spiritual exploration can she understand that the young man standing on the lawn is by no means simple.

"The ancestors are up," the old witch muttered in tribal language. "What kind of power is that?"

Uh ...

Not to mention that the old witch's side was abnormally confused, but said that Maca's side was still standing quietly waiting in the forecourt of the castle.

In addition to the African delegation expected to arrive at Hogwarts today, there will also be a joint representative team from Mesopotamia.

代表团 Because the composition of this delegation is too cluttered, the integration is also thanks to the assistance of the federation. Otherwise, the chaotic magic world is completely unformed, and the number of casual people participating in this competition may be several times higher.

Because the modern wizards of Mesopotamia are extremely messy, they are quite outstanding in the ancient magic world. Just like the rise of the exceptionally bright Babylonian civilization, the ancient wizards of this period naturally contributed.

Alchemy is one of them.

This time, the wizards of Mesopotamia were organized by the International Federation of Wizards. Of course, the team that led the joint team this time was the dispatcher of the federation.

Now that I am here, I think I have to mention the way the two delegations arrived today.

The appearances of African wizards just now are very bland, because this time they are mainly graduates of Vagadud. They all appeared outside the school door with the key.

接下来 The next group of "so-brand troops" of Mesopotamia, the way of appearance will stimulate Maca's nerves.

At a certain moment when Maca was boring and basking in the sun, he suddenly noticed a magic wave in the vestibule clearing. That wave fluctuated from shallow to deep, from small to large, and then gradually spread.

And it was at this moment that Maca knew immediately that it was the Mesopotamian team that was coming.

However, Maca smiled bitterly soon.

"Before the people of the Wizarding Union hadn't come to ask for the door key, I thought there might be a problem." He stared at the open space and thought silently, "They can't estimate this time ..."

Although the magic wave fluctuated, Maca did not know what method was being used to get there, but he knew that the space within the school was reinforced by the Big Four. If you want to arrive by space, it's a dream.

After a few seconds, Maca faintly saw some cylindrical outlines in the open space. The large pillars were arranged in a circle, which looked like some kind of ancient altar.

But while those pillars were still in a translucent state, with the slight vibration of the space level, all the looming images disappeared ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ It is obvious that the intention of moving there has completely failed. .

看来 "It seems that this time the joint delegation of Mesopotamia is afraid to be late ..."

Maca shook her head slightly, then turned to write a letter to contact the International Federation of Wizards, and asked them to send someone to get the door key. But just as he walked a few steps, a wave of magic waves similar to the one before appeared again behind him.

"Not dead yet?" Maca turned back subtly, looking at it over there, "Would you be so deadheaded? Why did the organizers sent by the Federation go?"

一次 This time, it seems that there has been an increase in strength, even those pillars are a little clearer. But it's just a little bit, it can't change the fact.

当 When the opposite side failed again, but started to try the third round, Maca was completely taken.

"Without mentioning strength, at least the wizard of Mesopotamia must be very resilient ..." he sighed. "If you can stay a little longer, for your perseverance, I am Don't mind pushing back on your specific location ... "

Maka said this, took out the manuscript paper and sat down in situ, it was intended to analyze the magic wave of the opponent on the spot.

玛 It's not like the time-saving work Maca did. He tried to push Greenward back, although he failed because of lack of time.
