Chapter 249: Treasure Hunt in the North Tower (Part I)
There are many cases of good intentions doing bad things in this world.
For example, Louis had good intentions to raise the lower limit of his wizarding talent for Galen, but he always had to ask his opinion before doing so.
As for Harry....
That's really no way.
After all, even if Louis stayed there and did nothing, he also had a special relationship with Voldemort.
Galen was not.
In the fight against the second generation of the Dark Lord, both Galen himself and the Smith family can be called outsiders, if Voldemort really has the possibility of a comeback, as outsiders, they could have stayed out of the matter.
However, after Louis uses Voldemort's remnant soul and forcibly raises the lower limit of Galen's wizarding talent, Voldemort, who really has a chance to be resurrected, will definitely find trouble with Galen and the Smith family.
The reason for this is that the purified remnant of Voldemort still has a certain connection to him.
At this time, Louis's voice suddenly echoed in Galen's mind, but he was a little confused, and he didn't know how to use mental communication to reply, and then he wanted to come to Louie's side and reply in a low voice.
It was still Louis who patiently taught Galen how to use spiritual communication, and he scratched the back of his head with a smile and replied:
"Got it, Louie, I'm sure I'll have time for the evening."
"It's just...."
"Do you have to wait until the evening to talk about something? Anyway, no one can hear us now. ”
Louis smiled slightly and said:
"There is more time at night, and we can enjoy the holiday during the day!"
"Hmm...."
Thinking that what Louie said made some sense, Galen nodded and said with a smile:
"Good!"
"Then wait until the evening!"
Then, under the arrangement of the butler Wayne and the service of a group of servants, Louis and the others, who arrived at the castle restaurant, enjoyed a sumptuous lunch in the room of laughter, during which only Galen's grandmother Sivana left the table due to physical discomfort, and the also elderly Galio was old and strong, and fought with Jason and Arthur to the end.
By the end of lunch, the drunken Jason, Arthur and others obviously needed to rest, and they would undoubtedly not be able to accompany everyone around the castle in the afternoon.
Quinn and Fiona are going to take Galen and other Smith children to see Sivana, who has not been in good health recently.
Thereupon.
The tour guide who took everyone around the castle in the afternoon was temporarily replaced by Wayne the butler.
But seriously, the people who are interested in visiting the Smith family castle are only Sophia, Harry, Ron, and Ginny, and the rest of them, such as Louie, have lived in Hogwarts and have no new sense of the castle for a long time.
Especially for George and Fred, instead of wasting time playing under Wayne's guidance, it was not at all as interesting as it was for a few people to get together and explore the castle in private.
So, just as the group had finished touring the south tower of the castle, Louis saw George, and Fred came to his side, one from the left and the other from the right, and said:
"Louie, for the sake of the treasure in the castle, the two of us have recently collected a lot of information."
"For example, the people who left a secret in this castle are the ancestors of the Smith family who built this castle in the first place."
"For example, this castle is like Hogwarts, with a lot of unexplored secret passages!"
"So...."
As he spoke, the two reached out and put their hands on Louie's shoulders almost at the same time, and said with a smile:
"Louie, how about you take Harry and Galen and Kevin, and just a few of us looking for treasure in the castle?"
"Uh-huh..."
Louis nodded:
"I'm sure I'll be fine here, just ask the others what they mean later."
"That's good!"
After receiving an affirmative answer from Louie, the two of them smiled with a smile on their faces, "Let's go ask Harry first, and then talk to Galen and Kevin when they come back!" ”
As soon as the two spoke, they fell.
"Whoosh...."
Louis saw that the two were still on the left and the right, and took Harry's shoulders and began to invite him to hunt for treasures together, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart:
"The treasure is really an extraordinary attraction to George and Fred!"
However, Louis knew that they wanted to find all the treasures in the Smith family's castle, and there was little hope at all.
Let's not talk about whether the rumors of the treasure circulating in the Smith family are true.
Even if the rumors of the treasure were true, how could they get away with finding the treasure that even the owner of the castle couldn't find?
You must know that the magic array that enveloped the entire castle has been suppressing the magic power in Louis's body, forcibly narrowing the range of his magic perception.
Although Louie didn't need to use the third turn of the Silent Magic, just by relying on the strength of the second turn of the Silent Magic, he could break the magic array built by the ancestors of the Smith family in the blink of an eye.
But....
Louis couldn't have ruined the efforts of the entire Smith family for generations in order to satisfy the curiosity of George and Fred, right?
For example, Galen's grandmother, Sivana.
Judging from the real situation that Louis knew, the main reason for her physical condition was precisely because she was the one who was currently providing magic power to maintain this magic array.
It didn't matter how young Shivana looked, she was an old man no matter how she said it.
It is estimated that it will not be long before Sivana's magic can no longer support the maintenance of the magic array, and that is when Galen's grandfather Galio inherits the castle to Quinn.
This may also be one of the reasons why Galio doesn't like his daughter-in-law Fiona.
Like Galio and Sivana, both wizards, they can take turns transfusing blood for the castle's magic circle when they are old, but when Quinn who inherits the castle faces the same situation in the future, Fiona, who is a Muggle, obviously can't help him in the slightest.
"There's a strange thing...."
"Obviously, Wayne, the current butler of the Smith family, and Silas, the former butler, are both wizards, why do Galio and Sivana want to overdraw their own magic power to transfuse blood for the magic array, and not consider using the magic power of the two of them?"
"Could it be.... Another Smith tradition? ”
Secretly thinking to himself, Louis considered whether to talk to Quinn and use his ample magic reserves to help Galio and Sivana, two elderly people.
If they continued to overdraw themselves for the magic array, they would probably only have a few years to live.
Followed by.
Under the guidance of Wayne, after visiting the south and west towers of the castle in turn, just when Sophia and others were full of interest and wanted to visit the north tower, the highest tower of the castle, Wayne, who suddenly stopped, shook his head and said:
"I'm sorry, distinguished guests, something strange has been happening in the North Tower recently, so it has been temporarily banned by the host, why don't we go to the flower room first?"
Hearing this, Sophia and the others, who wanted to go to the highest part of the North Building to see the scenery, were inevitably a little disappointed, but George and Fred's eyes suddenly lit up, and they projected their eyes on Louis together, as if to say....
"Hey, Louie!"
"We're pretty sure where the castle's treasures are!"
