My Understanding Is Incredible, I Built A Floating City In Hogwarts
Chapter 40 Knowing The Legend
Levin spent the afternoon wandering around Diagon Alley, but did not get any more information about the gryphon.
After all, this animal has been missing for too long. The last time it had clear contact with humans was Newt Scamander in 1927.
Since you can't find it in other people's mouths, you can only rely on yourself.
That night, Levin returned to the bar room early, placed an incense burner on the floor, surrounded by four ivory ornaments, lit a fire and burned incense, and started the magic ritual.
Speaking of which, Levin has to thank Muggles for their developed modern industry.
Ritual materials such as incense and ivory products would cost at least three to four hundred gold coins in a real magical world.
But relying on Muggle's developed industrial system, the price of these materials has been reduced by at least ten times.
The materials that originally cost a lot of money to collect, Levin only needed to go to the mall and spend less than a hundred pounds to get it.
[Understanding Legends: A 4-ring prophecy school spell. Knowing Legends allows you to obtain relevant information and deeds about an important person, place or thing. The more you know about the person, thing, or place, the more specific the information you can get, and vice versa. 】
This is a spell that Levin understood before setting off, and it is also the basis for him to dare to look for precious magic materials without knowing anything.
Without this kind of prophecy spell, he, a novice in the magic world, might not be able to find all these tricky materials even if he is looking for clues.
In addition to [Knowledge of Legends],
Levin also made many other preparations for this independent trip.
For example, in order to prepare for possible conflicts, he learned many combat spells, such as the 1st level [Petrification Curse], the 2nd level [Stun Curse], the 2nd level [Expelling Curse], and the 0th level magic commonly used for solving puzzles and exploring [Apparition Curse], [Unlocking Curse], [Excavation Curse], etc.
On this basis, Levin developed a series of spells such as the 1st level [Grease Spell], the 2nd level [Mirror Imagery], the 3rd level [Suggestion], and the 1st level [Mage Armor].
He also took advantage of the Potions class to buy a few bottles of invigorating potions that restored health.
Anyway, I'm fully prepared.
The wizard level has also been upgraded to LV5, and his magic power and magic resistance have been slightly improved.
Even though his magic power is not as good as that of an adult wizard, with a series of unique spells and the metamagic skill of [Spell Instant Cast], he is still capable of fighting as long as he does not encounter elite Aurors or Death Eaters.
"[Know the Legend], look for the gryphon's beak!"
When the smoke of spices completely enveloped the front, Levin started the magic ritual.
Out of caution, he didn't even ask for a gryphon, but a gryphon beak,
After all, a single beak is much easier to find than a live gryphon.
Maybe some old wizard has an ancestral griffin skull hidden in his home?
Anyway, to brew a permanent potion, what is needed is the magic ingredient in the material and the "symbolic meaning" of the material itself.
Here’s the difference between magic and science:
Magic is not just the evolution of purely objective factors such as the use of magic power and the deduction of rules.
There are still many idealistic and subjective factors in magic.
Such as will, spirit and emotion,
Another example is the various “symbols” of acquired genius.
From a sociological perspective, the essence of symbols is similar to memes, which are products of collective imagination in human social activities.
For example, the crow symbolizes the "sun", so crow feathers can be used in potions with solar elements.
Another example is that the grasshopper represents the "jumping ability", so the grasshopper's hind legs can be used as casting materials for the "Jumping Spell".
This is why strange ingredients such as "liar's tongue" and "witch's saliva" appear in many ancient potion recipes.
Muggles would think that these gods and ghosts are just human imagination.
But in the magical world, adhering to the principle that if you believe it, there will be something, and if you don’t believe it, there will be nothing. The collective imagination of mankind is really effective.
Don't you think that in a certain Otherworld, fame, legends and collective imagination can even tamper with real history, giving historical figures powers they never had before during their lifetimes, and even allowing characters in fantasy to step into reality?
Back to Levin's mission,
[Eternal Eagle's Majesty Elixir] The reason why griffon beak powder is needed is that the creature "gryphon" is synonymous with majesty, pride, and charm - otherwise, it would not be so annoying. The royal family and nobility are painted on the family coat of arms.
The core medicinal materials of several other elixirs are similar to this.
This is why Levin would rather have a fossilized griffin than use a hippogriff as a replacement.
As the magical ritual progressed, Levin soon became immersed in the incense, and a blurry picture flashed in his mind.
In the picture is an artificially dug cave.
In front of the cave is an array of huge rocks.
The array is arranged strangely, and strange plants grow among them, forming wonderful patterns.
In the array of stones, there was a circular cavity on a huge stone, and it looked like something had been embedded there.
Beside the boulder, surrounded by several four-legged animals,
They are somewhat similar to the Q version of alpacas, with different fur colors, but all have big eyes. At this time, they are collectively looking at the stone formation in front of them, looking a little...silly?
The scene ends here.
Levin suddenly woke up from his meditation.
Looking at the time, half an hour has passed.
The incense has long since dispersed,
In other words, this is all the result given by [Mastering the Legend].
"Is this the whereabouts of the gryphon's beak that [Legend Master] told me?"
Levin fell into thought,
"The artificial caves, stone formations, strange patterns, circular inlays, and the four-legged animals... I always feel like I have seen them somewhere before."
"Wait...could that animal be...the Moon-Crazy Beast?"
Levin had seen this creature in books about magical beasts.
The Moon Slayer is a very shy magical creature that only comes out of its cave at night when the moon is full. Their skin is smooth and light gray, and different species also have fur with other patterns.
It has four slender legs, four flat feet underneath, and a pair of bulging eyes on the top of its head.
As soon as they reach the moonlight, they will stand on their hind legs and start to dance a very complicated dance. People think this is part of the mating ritual of the moonsuckers, but the complex geometric patterns they leave in the wheat fields will make Muggles confused. They were very confused.
Thinking of this, he suddenly understood where his sense of déjà vu in the picture came from.
Because he has been there.
"Isn't this the [Moonstone Garden]!"
In the game called Hogwarts Legacy, Levin controls a fifth-year transfer student who came here with Hufflepuff's little girlfriend Pappy.
"Is it possible that the gryphon I'm looking for is in the Moonstone Garden?"
However, the Moonstone Garden is too far away from London - because it is in Scotland, outside Hogwarts, near the South Sea Marshes.
You can't get there by normal means.
But Levin still remembers the way there.
Thinking of this, Levin picked up his wand, put a few tubes of uplifting potion into his robe, and immediately set off downstairs.
He came to the fireplace in the Leaky Cauldron, grabbed a handful of Floo powder, and threw it into the fireplace.
With a roar, the fire turned green and rose higher than his whole body.
Levin walked straight into the fire and shouted:
"Irondale!"
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the fire.
