Chapter 149: Invisibility Cloak (Asking for a Monthly Pass!) )
"So..."Egger looked at the man in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly, "What the hell is the Silent Man?" ”
"To understand the mysterious existence, to explore the terrifying existence, to remain silent about the human inquiry...", said in a low voice of John, "to wander away from the darkness, to wander through life and death, to exist in the past and in the future, to explore the true meaning of the world, this is the job of our silent people." ”
"I don't know how to do it..."Egg looked at John with a suspicious expression, "So, what are you looking for me?" ”
"We want you to be silent." John's voice was flat, neither arrogant nor humble, and his tone was as if you were willing to be it, and if you didn't want to be it, forget that perfunctory feeling.
"May I ask what the hell you're all doing?" Iger looked at the man and wondered.
"Capture the fugitives who disturb time, capture the fugitives who cross space, correct the deranged course of time, and study some things, what you see and what you can't see...", John roughly described.
"I can... Refusal? Egger looked at the man with some hesitation.
It's not that he was instigated, but that the other party said it was too lofty, which made him feel a little bottomless.
"Yes." John's voice remained flat.
"No consequences?" Iger asked tentatively.
"Nope." John's face is hidden under the hood, blurred.
"What's the benefit of joining you?" Iger pinched his chin and looked at John suspiciously.
"A large time turner, an invisibility cloak." John replied.
It's tempting...
Egger narrowed his eyes, he had money, money could buy a lot of things, but he couldn't buy the two things that the other party said.
Some things are not something that can be bought with money.
"May I ask why you invited me?" Iger was a little curious.
"Because you're strong." John told the truth: "And we need the devil to learn the properties of any form of magic." ”
"Wait, listen to you, you've seen other devils? Have you done any research? Iger was a little surprised.
"We can travel back and forth between time and space." John doesn't say much, but the meaning is clear.
"What about work? What do you do at work? Iger asked.
"Listen to the assignment, though, not busy." John doesn't seem to like talking.
"I'm joining!" Iger nodded, and the other man's words sounded good.
"You're joining?" John was stunned, then reached out and handed over a box: "This is the time turner, and an invisibility cloak, the same as the invisibility cloak of your classmate." ”
Egg was stunned, he knew who the other party was talking about, it was Harry.
"Same as that?" Egger was a little surprised: "I thought it was made of stealth animal skin..."
"That's the same thing, but the craftsmanship is higher, and there won't be a magic failure." John nodded, "We need an invisibility cloak to travel to and from the world of the dead." ”
"The World of the Dead?" Egger's eyes narrowed, "You ...... Can you see the dead? ”
"Yes, if necessary, we will go to the world of the dead and ask some questions for people who haven't traveled far." John didn't say much, just answered vaguely.
"Can I go and see it?" Iger looked at John expectantly.
"There will be opportunities in the future." John didn't refuse, but he didn't immediately agree: "Every time before using the time converter, you have to go to the Department of Mysteries to report to us, and you have to set your own time coordinates, the limit of the time converter is fifty years, and beyond this limit, it is not the time period we are responsible for." ”
"Listen to you, we still have colleagues at other times?" Iger was stunned.
"That's right." John nodded, turned and disappeared, looking a little overwhelmed by Egger's many questions.
After making sure that there were no curses on the box, Egg returned to Hogwarts with the box in his arms, put it away and made his way to the Headmaster's office.
"Professor Dumbledore?" Iger yelled as soon as he entered the principal's office.
"What's the matter, child?" Dumbledore stepped down from the bedroom above the headmaster's office and looked at Egg with a plate of tiramisu in surprise.
"Do you know the Silencer?" Egg looked up at Dumbledore.
"Ahh If you're talking about the people in the Department of Occult Affairs, I know something. Dumbledore nodded, "I was... I mean, it was... After my sister died... I've been to the Department of Mysteries, hoping to ask for a time-turner to turn things around..."
"And then?" Egg looked at Dumbledore curiously.
"A silent man listened to my request and took me back in time, and then I failed..."Dumbledore nodded leisurely, "I watched my sister die in front of my eyes for the second time, and to be honest, the pain doubled in my heart..."
Egger: "......"
"I've been in awe of them ever since, and I've learned that what has happened is something you can't stop no matter how much you adjust your time." Dumbledore nodded, "It makes me cherish everything around me even more." ”
Egg was stunned: "So, there's no way to change some things by going back in time, right?" ”
"No, it can be changed." Dumbledore shook his head: "But what has changed, what has happened, is complicated to say..."
"Okay, I get a rough idea." Iger nodded, meaning that it should be like Harry and the others rescuing Buckbeak and Sirius in the original books, things may not turn out the way they want, but things have changed.
"Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?" Dumbledore looked at Egg and laughed, "Let me guess... They're coming for you? ”
"How do you know?" Iger was stunned.
"You've asked me kid," Dumbledore chuckled, "and they do always invite some powerful wizards to join them, so... Do you agree? ”
"I can't think of any reason to refuse." Iger spread his hands.
"yes, I think you'll agree, in fact, I was a little tempted at first." Dumbledore said happily.
"They invited you?" Egger was a little surprised.
"Of course, my friend and I were both invited by the Silencer," a hint of nostalgia flashed in Dumbledore's eyes, "but unfortunately, both of us had no ambitions at the time, so we both turned them down." ”
"Grindelwald?" Iger asked tentatively.
"Ah, yes, it's him." Dumbledore nodded.
"What the hell do they do?" Egg looked at Dumbledore with some curiosity.
"What I know is... Maintain the order of time, guard our space, tap into human potential, and explore death. Dumbledore said, "And one of the most important research topics is... Love. ”
"Love?" Egger opened his mouth.
"Yes... It's a very fiery, intense, powerful power, and it's a magic that we're born with. Dumbledore muttered to himself with a distant look in his eyes.
"But there's more, I don't know." Dumbledore shook his head slightly.
"Alright," Iger nodded.
"Your best magic is illusion, right?" Dumbledore asked, looking at Egg.
"What's the problem?" Iger was stunned when he heard this.
"Apparition is a spell invented by the Department of Mysteries." Dumbledore said.
Egger was stunned for a moment: "But the phantom shifter should have..."
"It's more than a thousand years old, yes, I know." Dumbledore's eyes were deep, and he looked at Egg through the half-moon lens: "The Department of Mysteries has existed much longer than the Ministry of Magic, but rather, the Ministry of Magic was built around the Department of Mysteries. ”
"Once upon a time, there was a saying among wizards that if you want to know the secrets of this world, then you should go to the Department of Occult Affairs." Dumbledore looked at Egg, "Because of my status and status, I know them a little bit better, even Fudge doesn't know as much as I know about them as Minister of Magic, but even so, I don't know much about them. ”
Egg left, Headmaster Strength, and Dumbledore continued to eat the tiramisu.
"The Silence," Slytherin muttered thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, we were invited. ”
"Inviting you?" Dumbledore had a smile in his eyes.
"Well, to be precise, it should be an invitation to Rowena, when I was younger, Godric and I were indeed not as glamorous and famous as Rowena..."Slytherin coughed a little embarrassed: "Godric was best known for being a dueling maniac, even Muggles knew his name, and I was just a young master at the time, and Helga ran a restaurant..."
"Didn't you ever invite you?" Phineas on the side looked at the first dean of his academy with admiration.
"It was gone, but one time I touched the magic of time... Those people have come to me and want me to stop experimenting. Slytherin frowned, "Those people, really strong, and very good at magic... Truth be told, the magic I had at that time was like a trick to them. ”
"It's that strong?" Phineas continued to tout.
"No, it's not that they're strong." Dumbledore shook his head slightly: "The magic of that era a thousand years ago did not have the depth of ancient magic, nor the variability of modern magic, but rather that it was a withering era, and we respect the four giants of Hogwarts, not because of how powerful they were, but because of their contributions to the development of the wizarding world, which cannot be compared like this." ”
"Time is controlled by them, space is controlled by them, vertical and horizontal development, I think, so far, all magic, ancient, modern, and even future, should be in their hands." Dumbledore whispered, "Thankfully, none of them are Voldemort. ”
"Then why didn't they go back in time and kill him?" Phineas was a little angry, he hated Dumbledore and got in the way of his sycophancy.
"The most basic quality of time control is not to change the direction of things, unless there are some very serious consequences, they will intervene." Dumbledore spread his hands: "As for who rules the wizarding world and who is in power in the Ministry of Magic, they don't care. ”
……
Back in his bedroom, Egg looked at the box in front of him and fell into deep thought.
As long as he opened the box, he could go back in time and check his origins.
Do you want to go back and see?
It's a question...
Opening the box, inside the box is a pocket watch-style pendant with a card next to it.
'The outermost circle, one circle for a year, the second circle, one circle for a month, the third circle, one circle for a day, the innermost circle, one circle for an hour.
How to use, turn the corresponding circle, go back to the past counterclockwise, and explore the future clockwise.
Note: If it is damaged during use, please immediately go to the Department of Mystic Affairs of the corresponding era. ’
Underneath the time-turner, a silky piece of cloth was picked up and draped over his body, Egger found that it was a large cloak in its entirety, and when he put it on and looked in the mirror, Egg found that his body had disappeared.
Hanging the time-turner around his neck, Egger hurried out of the room with his robe draped.
Don't care how you use these things in the future, let's play for a while.
Simple-minded people are so happy...
As soon as he entered the lounge, Iger saw the cats in the room who were warming up in the room and turned their heads and looked straight in his direction.
Crook Hill ran around Egger twice, and sniffed with his little nose: "Little master? ”
"How did you find Meow?" Egger suddenly removed the hood from his head.
"I can just feel something here, and besides, you have a unique smell on you, I always remember, little master." Crookshank Hill raised his head with pride.
"A cat's nose is so good—" muttered Egg, pulling up his hood and disappearing again.
Walking silently in the castle, Egger looked around with a very curious mood, and from time to time walked to a classroom with an open door to wander around, waving excitedly in front of the students listening to the lecture.
From time to time, tease a girl who is listening carefully, wrap her hair around the stool, and then watch the girl turn around and give the boy behind her a brain scoop...
Maybe I can go to the women's restroom?
Egger suddenly had a dangerous thought.
After thinking about it, Iger felt that it was better to forget it first, it sounded weird and perverted.
If you have the chance, you can ask Harry if he has visited the women's bathroom through the invisibility cloak.
If he hadn't been, Iger wasn't going to either.
If he goes... Iger felt that he should express a strong condemnation, and asked him to take himself to the scene...
All the way to the herb class greenhouse, Egg looked at Harry and smiled evilly.
Crept up behind Harry, just as Ron walked past Harry, and Iger casually slapped Harry on the ass with a provocative slap, causing Harry to frown and turn his head.
"What are you doing?" Harry looked at Ron with some confusion.
"What's wrong?" Ron was dazed.
Iger grinned silently as he bit his nails.
"What's the wind?" Harry muttered, turning around and swapping the dirt for the poisonous tentacles in front of him, dodging the fanged tentacles of the poisonous tentacles from time to time.
Ron looked at Harry suspiciously, then turned around and went about his business.
Seeing Harry turn around, Egg slapped Harry on the ass again, and then collapsed to the ground laughing silently.
"Ron!" Harry turned his head and screamed in annoyance.
"What the hell is going on, man?" Ron turned his head innocently: "Why are you so angry today?" ”
"Why are you slapping me in the ass?" Harry asked in a low voice.
Hermione, who was on the side, burst out laughing when she heard this, and then glanced at Ron with a strange look in her eyes.
"When did I slap your ass?" Ron was not happy for a moment.
