The next day, Christmas

Severus didn't have much to say when they got up, and the kind of picture that was going to be blocked couldn't happen at all.

According to Severus's temperament, he is not very capable of making any overly affectionate movements, let alone any love words.

In his previous life, Zhang Jin was a standard science and engineering man, that is, the skill plus point was not added to emotional intelligence.

Although there is no problem with receiving people and getting along with people in daily life, I really don't understand what love is.

For example, during college, there was a girl who often did experiments with him, and when she had nothing to do, she would go out to play, eat, etc., which was obviously a further rhythm, if it was someone else, she would have been out of the list a long time ago, but Zhang Jin was still single, and no girl asked him to eat with him after that.

As for taking the initiative to date a girl?

Impossible!

Not in this life!

And then the previous life is over.

And Severus. Snape's emotional intelligence is even more problematic.

Anyone who has read the original book or the movie knows that this guy doesn't have emotional intelligence, otherwise Lily. Evans wouldn't have followed Harry's dad either, and the story would have changed a long time ago.

And after Lily's death, Professor Snape doesn't need emotional intelligence anymore.

Why do you have emotional intelligence if you don't even have love?

Therefore, Severus, who has been a man of two lives, is still a standard love novice, and under the influence of Snape, he has been a cold male god for several years, and he can't think of any love words for a while.

Therefore, after the three of them had breakfast, Severus sent the two women home very straight.

And said: "You should spend more time with your family at Christmas." ”

So under the very speechless gaze of the two women, they waved goodbye, and the two new girlfriends didn't even get a farewell kiss.

As for Severus, he didn't go back to school.

The reason why I am in a hurry to say goodbye is really something,

He was going to take advantage of the holidays to go to the Middle East to see where Nicolame had picked up the "Divine Stone".

During a previous visit to Nicolume, Nicolelemet had also suggested that there might be something there in ancient Babylon, and Severus decided to check it out.

But no matter how much you say, you can't change the essence of straight men!

…

Ancient Babylon is located in the Great Plains of Mesopotamia, and anyone who has listened to Chou Dong's songs should know it, and the approximate location should also be known, in fact, it is the current Iraq, but Iraq at this time is not the state after the war in later generations.

At this time, Iraq was still quite strong and developed.

But there are wars.

This period coincided with the Iran-Iraq War, the border war between Iraq and Iran.

However, this did not affect Severus' itinerary.

The Muggle world had nothing to do with wizarding and wizarding, especially after World War II. Grindelwald had a series of blinding operations, so the International Council of Wizards issued a very strict ban on wizards from participating in Muggle activities.

Please note that no activity is allowed.

It was also because of such a ban that it directly led to a serious disconnect between the wizarding world and Muggles.

Now even many Muggle governments are unaware of the existence of the wizarding world.

Severus didn't need to go through the Muggle route, and likewise, he had no intention of reporting to the local Ministry of Magic.

He's not here for a tourist, and he's probably going to do some damage, so it's impossible to report it.

And in order to hide his identity, Severus also disguised himself as an adventure wizard.

In fact, it is equivalent to a treasure hunter, walking among various monuments all year round, in order to earn him a fortune.

And such wizards generally do not reveal their identities, and even most of them are dark wizards, so cloaks and hoods are standard, and many even wear masks.

Once he was ready, Severus set foot on Iraqi territory.

Even though Severus is now very strong, he doesn't have the idea of arrogance.

There are so many things in the wizarding world that capsize in the gutter, just like Voldemort, who knows what strange things will happen!

But he doesn't limit his play either.

So soon, with the support of great power, Severus discovers a suspicious place.

This is an ancient ruin in the desert of southern Iraq, and from the traces of it, it is likely to be from the ancient Babylonian period, and the location is more consistent.

This site is far from the city, so there is little protection, let alone tourists.

Due to the perennial wind and sand, most of this place has been hidden by the desert, and the height of the sand layer even exceeds the height of Severus, and only the tops of some walls and stone pillars are exposed to the desert.

It was here that Severus felt the more obvious traces of magic, although it felt like it was a magical creature.

However, according to the habits of these magical creatures, they generally only live in places with a lot of magic.

And those magical relics generally like to be built in places with a lot of magic.

Just like Hogwarts, the valley where Hogwarts is located is a place of great magic.

Severus first checked around, and soon spotted a swarm of desert poison-tailed scorpions.

Severus frowned, and decisively followed a scorpion.

These scorpions have poisonous tails and are very deadly creatures for Muggles, but for Severus, they are certainly not as dangerous as the eight-eyed spiders at school.

Thus, after a succession of "disobedient" scorpions, Severus finally found an entrance that looked like it.

It was an underground cavern, and it was supposed to be used as a nest by desert scorpions, and as Severus advanced, many scorpions came out to sneak attack.

First the size of a palm, then the size of a human head, and finally a few more than a meter long, when Severus found a stone door, these scorpions came out of the chrysalis as if they had been beaten to their nests.

However, in Severus's opinion, this may really be their lair, and the magic here is more intense than in other places.

Continuing inward, it was needless to say that he had fought all the way through the level and killed monsters, and finally after solving a scorpion that was more than three meters long, Severus stood in front of a stone wall.

After Severus's investigation, there should be a hidden space in this.

There are quite a lot of such magical spaces in the wizarding world, such as the small ones like the Hogwarts Requirement House, and the large ones like the Death Veil of the Ministry of Magic.

I have to say that space magic is not very magical in the wizarding world, even the little wizards in the school can come to one or two at will, such as the Traceless Stretching Charm or something, and even cleaning up involves space magic.

Of course, there are strange places, these spatial magic are basically not used for attacking.

But it was perfect for hiding things, and even Severus could only feel the magic fluctuations inside when he stood here.

So it's really thanks to these poisonous scorpions, if it weren't for them, Severus wouldn't have been able to find them.

Well, as a thank you, eat roasted scorpions in the evening!
