Chapter 46: The Mirror Dimension
For one night, Canaan seemed to not know tiredness, excitedly practicing the space magic taught by the ancient one.
While practicing the technique of opening the door to space, Canaan found that his previous study of the nature of space had greatly helped him. According to the spell-casting technique described by the ancient one, just by relying on the suspension ring, Canaan easily drew a golden circle in the space. Not much worse than Doctor Strange in the movie.
However, it was a headache for Canaan to practice the more difficult mirror space, which was too difficult to cast and required a deep understanding of space. It took Canaan a long time to grasp the principles of this magic, but when he cast it, he found that his magic was simply not strong enough to sustain the existence of the mirror space.
Fortunately, the ancient one also mentioned in his diary that it could be used with the help of treasures with spatial attributes, so Canaan tried again with the help of the Eye of the Pseudo-Agomoto.
The pseudo-Agomoto Eye on his chest emitted a green light, and Canaan cast a spell with both hands, slowly controlling a trace of magic in his body to communicate the power of space within the emerald.
In front of Canaan appeared a wall-sized space of debris, like a broken mirror. This is the entrance to the mirror space.
Canaan walked in slowly, looked around, and saw that the space inside was like a laboratory in a mirror, but it gave people a dead silence.
According to the description of the ancient one, mirror space is a shallow latitude space attached to real space, where the scene is the same as reality, but nothing that happens can affect reality.
Canaan arrives in Skada's room and sees him sleeping soundly with a book next to his pillow - "How to Maintain Your Greenhouse".
What a faithful servant!, Canaan lamented, and decided to increase the welfare of Lower Skada a little in the future.
Then Canaan used the illusion to get out on the streets of London, and it was already early in the morning, and there weren't many cars on the road, let alone pedestrians.
Walking alone on the streets, Canaan observed his surroundings, and he found that the spatial structure in this mirror latitude was fragile, full of loopholes. He remembered that the Ancient One had said in his diary that matter folding could be carried out in the mirror space, and that he could manipulate the space at will and attack the enemy with it.
Just like at the beginning of Doctor Strange's movie, the Ancient One mage is in mirror space to fold matter, manipulating space to stop Dormammu's fanatic Casillas.
Canaan stopped, urging the necklace on his chest, the Pseudo-Agamotto's Eye glowing green. Immediately after that, the tall building on the opposite side began to slowly topple down, and the concrete floor under Canaan's feet also changed, tumbling upwards to form a 90-degree angle with the ground.
The world seems to have changed dramatically, and the space has been folded haphazardly. Canaan suddenly felt that he was the god of this world, controlling everything.
Suddenly, Canaan heard a crisp sound, like the sound of glass breaking, and the green light of the pseudo-Agamotto Eye on his chest also dimmed, and the entire mirror space began to collapse, and various fragments fell from the sky.
"Damn!" Seeing this, Canaan hurriedly opened a spatial door with the suspension ring and returned to the real world. Behind him, the entire mirror space dissolves into nothingness.
"What's going on? it's too dangerous!" he patted his chest with palpitations, he was caught off guard by the sudden collapse of the mirror world just now, and if he had reacted slowly, he might not have been able to come back now.
He looked at the necklace on his chest and saw that one of the green gems set in it was missing, and it was much smaller than before.
"Could it be that the power of space used is overloaded?" Canaan guessed, he estimated that it would take a lot of energy to open the mirror space, plus he folded matter in the mirror space and manipulated the space, so that the Eye of the Pseudo-Agomoto could not maintain such a large energy consumption, directly exceeding the limit of the use of emeralds, so the mirror space would collapse immediately afterward.
"Sure enough, it still can't compare to the real Infinity Stones!" he sighed, looking at the somewhat damaged Pseudo-Agomoto Eye in his hand, and some dark spots appeared on the surface of the green gems inside.
......
The next day, Canaan spent most of the day in the lab catching up on sleep, and it wasn't until the afternoon that he slowly woke up and kneaded his aching body.
"Skada, bring me a cup of coffee. ”
He needed to go to the Cauldron today, because Hagrid had written to him and invited Canaan to be his guest.
Canaan readily agreed, and he was also curious about Hogwarts, which he would be enrolling in, and it would be great if he could visit it in advance.
And thanks to Scarda's help, Canaan's Occlumency is now very proficient, even if he meets Dumbledore, he doesn't have to worry that the secrets in his heart will be discovered.
In the Leaky Cauldron Bar, Canaan, who arrived early, and the people in the bar teased, and it was impossible to tell that it was a ten-year-old child.
"Hi, Canaan. Hagrid went to the bar and found Canaan among the crowd, shouting hello.
"Hey, Hagrid, you're finally here. Canaan also stood up and waved his hand, then said to the people at the table, "Friends, I think I'm leaving." "These wizards are regulars in the bar and have a good relationship with Canaan, and they love nothing more than to tell Canaan about their strange adventures.
"Hagrid, how are we going to get there?" Canaan saw that Hagrid had a small red umbrella in his hand, and nothing else was with him.
"We use Floo powder to go to Hogsmeade first and then to me. Hagrid said in a rough voice.
"No problem, I've never tried Floo powder. ”
They made their way to Diagon Alley and found a fireplace connected to the Floo Network.
"This is it!", Hagrid pulled some shiny powder from his pocket, "grab a handful and read the name of the destination." ”
Canaan grabbed a handful in his hand, stood in the fireplace, and said "Hogsmeade!" in a standard voice, and a green flame enveloped Canaan, and then he disappeared into the fireplace.
"Good. Seeing Canaan's actions, Hagrid smiled and nodded, grabbed a handful of Floo powder, and disappeared into the fireplace.
......
"Is this Hogsmeade?" Canaan looked at the rows of houses in front of him, most of which were still covered with thatch. I heard that this village is full of wizards, and there is not a single Muggle.
"Yes, Canaan, let's hurry up, there is no room for young wizards under the third grade here. Hagrid looked around nervously.
"I'm not a Hogwarts student yet, so I guess that's fine. Canaan thought for a moment and said.
"Oh, it seems so, but let's go to me first, don't you want to try Buckbeak?" Hagrid remembered that Canaan had mentioned Buckbeak with the head of a horse several times in his letters.
"Of course, I've been looking forward to it for a long time. Canaan replied, as if he had thought of something, and then he asked, "Hagrid, may I visit Hogwarts?"
"I don't know, I might need to ask Dumbledore about this, you know him anyway, right?" Hagrid asked, somewhat uncertain.
"I know him? Oh, Hagrid, I've never seen him. Canaan shook his head.
"But Dumbledore agreed to invite you here. You know, I'm just the caretaker of the Forbidden Forest, and I don't know if I can invite an underage wizard to Hogwarts, so I wrote to Dumbledore. He told me, of course, as if he wanted to see you too. ”
"Oh,. "Canaan felt that it was never a good thing to be noticed by Old Deng.
"Perhaps, he likes your music too, by the way, do you bring a violin, I think my teeth will also have a chance to enjoy your music. ”
"Brought it, Hagrid, did you invite me just to let me play the violin for Yaya?" Canaan began to wonder Hagrid's original intention in inviting him.
"Oh... Actually, I'd like to hear about it too. Hagrid touched the back of his head and said embarrassedly.
