Chapter 95: The Battle of Hogwarts (1)

The wizarding world has always been based on the family, not the individual. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info Since ancient times, the family has been the lowest level of production, so in terms of political tendencies, revenge, war, etc., wizards will act as a family unit. Nikolaas Nović's entire family was wiped out, and naturally he harbored a deep hatred. This kind of fierce revenge is so normal in the eyes of traditional wizards that it should not even go to court.

Moreover, pure-blood wizards would not do justice for the Muggle death, and this incident did not affect Nikolaas Novich's career, but instead won him great prestige, and he was considered a representative and example of Muggle origin and integration into wizarding society. In 1990, he defeated the head of the Magical Law Enforcement Department and became the Minister of Magic of Russia.

Hermione certainly couldn't accept this for a short time. To use an old saying, the muggle smell on her body is too strong. It is not yet possible to think and look at things in terms of the values and ideas of wizards.

After a day of wandering around the castle's rooms, not long after dinner, Hermione and Harry were in bed. They were tired enough on this day, and from the outside, the snow-capped castle was not big, but in fact, the interior space was no smaller than Peverell Castle. Because in times of war, other family members living around the mountains would move in, and sometimes they would have to walk through large empty rooms to get to their destination.

"Where have you been?" said Phoenix, lazily lying on a recliner in his office, "You are familiar with the shortcuts to the castle, I had to take the big road, and I was exhausted." ”

"The Minister of R came back and he told me that there are many things to talk about with you. Watson ignores his complaints and gets straight to the point.

"Love is finally going to see me, it's rare. I happen to have something to look for him too. "By the way, my father's armor doesn't fit, you know, I'm a little taller." Let them play the new ones. ”

"Understood," Watson nodded back.

As soon as the door closed, the portraits spoke.

"Hurry up, today's story is interesting. ”

"Especially for you—"

"Explain the point," Phoenix said, squinting, pulling open a drawer in his hand and taking out the memory that had been properly stored in the crystal bottle, "Father, you should always make it clear." ”

After a period of contact, he found that the portraits of these ancestors were a little unreliable, perhaps because they had not spoken to people for a long time. Once, when Phoenix was writing a letter, he forgot how to spell a word, and as a result, a bunch of portraits started from the origin of that word, its initial meaning, its origin, the first inflection, pronunciation change, semantic change.

In the end, it was his father who interrupted, and the portraits would be told.

"Ah, the story is only interesting when there is suspense. ”

"Okay. He raised his eyebrows and poured the memory into the meditation basin.

"You'll run into acquaintances. With Balde finished, Phoenix plunged headlong into it.

He cut through the swirling darkness, falling and falling, and suddenly, the intense sunlight pierced him and he closed his eyes.

"What the hell!" he raised his hand to shield himself from the dazzling sunlight and found himself standing in the middle of a large marching group.

Phoenix stood on an overgrown path, apparently trampled by a large number of people. Overhead is the summer sky, as clear and blue as forget-me-not flowers. About ten paces ahead of him, a man about the size of Phoenix rode a horse, his eyes surveying the bands of soldiers who had passed in front of him, apparently Muggle troops.

The man was dressed in beautiful armor and carried a sword on his left and a shield on his right. The patterns on them indicate that they are all specially made by the elves for the Peverell family and have undergone enhancements.

"Your Excellency, there's Hogwarts ahead. A quick horse arrived, and the messenger shouted impatiently.

"Let's see what the four geniuses do, and I hope they don't resist. As he spoke, he led his horse and his retinue and galloped forward.

"I-" Phoenix yelled, and had to chase after him. Naturally, he was not as fast as a horse, and the scene around him turned white as the memory faded away, and the scenery became a painting in the distance.

It's not a long road, but it's extremely difficult to walk. It's not a big obstacle for a tall war horse, but it's not for him.

"It seems that they are ready to resist. Phoenix, panting on the ground, heard one speak.

"Remember, when a war starts, it's a quick one. After saying that, he strained his legs, and the war horse trotted forward.

He got up and looked into the distance, the familiar castle, already on alert. There was a line of stone statues and iron armor, standing motionless on the lawn.

There is no doubt that Peverell had a military campaign against Hogwarts, and it should have failed.

Why attack Hogwarts? I'm afraid there's only one reason, the Comemus Resurrection Stone. Yesterday, he read the memories of the family infighting, and the resurrection stone was taken away by Alice, and the invisibility cloak was missing, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

It seems that they knew at that time who took the resurrection stone and where it went. Most of the things in the whole memory are not written in the family history, and it is difficult to guess who this head of the family is.

Suddenly, a group of people walked out of the stone statue in front of them, they were dressed in the robes of their respective houses, and they looked to be from 30 to 20 years old, at that time, unlike the current admissions system, if Phoenix guessed correctly, the school should only have two principals left, and the remaining two should be recruited outside.

Gryffindor and Ravenclaw emerged from the stone statue side by side, followed by two knights in full armor, one holding a shield with a silver serpent and the other a golden lion.

It was the first time Phoenix had seen the founder of the school.

Gryffindor has a handsome face, with the famous Gryffindor sword hanging from his waist, and the ruby hilt glittering in the sun. He wears a pair of brown leather gloves and a feather on his shoulder.

Ravenclaw was not as pretty as Phoenix imagined, with a stern and sharp expression, like a knife, straight into the incoming. The Ravenclaw crown on her head was extremely beautiful. A golden eagle has its head tilted to one side, and its outstretched wings are set with diamonds of various sizes, arranged in order of size from the part near the torso to the end. The eagle's body has a sapphire the size of an egg.

Legend has it that the bottom of the crown is engraved with Ravenclaw's famous aphorism, "Superior wisdom is the greatest treasure of mankind." Unfortunately, Phoenix couldn't see if there was such a thing.

"Godric, Rowena, how are you?"

"Good, Augustus. You're probably not here with a large army to talk to us. Gryffindor said in a low voice.

Augustus - Phoenix learns who this man is, a legendary figure in the family, who at a young age inherited an embattled and shattered family. At that time, the Peverell family was like a pile of sand sculptures, the cracks were too big to repair, and Augustus didn't try, and reluctantly continued to pile up, which only barely delayed the time for the sand sculptures to break. He decisively shattered him, drawing on the experience of the previous pile, and re-stacked. The modern family system of rule was established, and most of the family's land was maintained at that time. The only regret is that he was unable to reassemble the Three Hallows, sadly passing on the Elder Wand to his son.

"My purpose is simple—" Augustus sat on his horse and looked down at them, "give me Alice, and I will withdraw at once." Otherwise, I'll have to go on a killing spree. ”
