Chapter 367: A New Life
"What did the kid see?"
Alicia took Char's arm and walked slowly through the streets of Paris, walking to the way back, and asked Char.
Char stared ahead, his eyes lit up with an incomprehensible light.
“GOD。”
Alicia's eyes opened slightly.
"Really?"
"Of course." Char had a light smile on her face, "What did I lie to you about?" ”
"I thought the gods didn't exist anymore." Alicia said.
"At least not on the surface." Char said undeniably, "However, in the dark, I don't know"
"After all, these gods were once the most powerful beings in the world, and they are obviously not willing to let themselves go to the end.
And Hebrew mythology, as one of the most believers in the world, will also have some confidence.
They live in the outside world and cannot enter the human world.
However, they do not want to enter the world all the time. ”
"So, you gave them a chance?" Alicia asked.
"Sort of." Char said, "I opened an opening, and they immediately seized the opportunity. ”
He sighed, "They are really paying attention to this place all the time, and it is enough to see their desire for the world." ”
"Can you believe it, Alicia, that it won't be long before the gods will reappear in the world."
"But why did you put them in?" Alicia said puzzled.
"Do you think that today's human beings can face the gods?" Char said.
Alicia was silent, she was not a housegirl who did not leave the door for more than a hundred years, and she had seen no less than Char.
"There are not many gods in this world, the Norse gods led by Odin, the Greek gods led by Zeus, Egypt, the East, and so on.
What is certain so far is that the Greek gods are showing signs of revival.
The rest of the gods are not very clear, and they may or may not be revived together.
But it is just a god-based power, and it is not difficult to rule the current human civilization.
At least with today's mortal technology, humans simply can't do any harm to the gods.
And if all the gods of these gods are regarded as enemies of humanity, then humanity will naturally not be able to defeat them. ”
"But there is a natural contradiction between man and God." "With the development of technology, human beings will gradually deconstruct the theocracy of the gods, and the gods will obviously not allow it.
And humanity will not allow itself to stagnate and bow down to a group of inhumans who are stepping on top of their heads.
There will inevitably be war between them. ”
"The reason why human beings can become the masters of this world is not because of their own strength, but because of their wisdom." Char walked slowly forward, gradually coming to the vicinity of the Sacred Heart Church.
"This is the only thing that can be compared to the gods who claim to be immortal."
"Human beings have never had any fixed enemies or rivals, and when the goal is the same, enemies can also become allies."
"Different gods need to compete for faith, and there must be contradictions between them, and this contradiction can also become a bargaining chip in the hands of human beings.
The civil war of the gods, the weakening of the gods is a real benefit for mankind.
As for whether the gods on their side will become their enemies in the future, then it will be a matter for the future.
But at least, they're not dealing with all gods, are they? ”
"From what I know, during the time of the gods, the gods once demarcated their sphere of influence through a divine war, and reached an agreement not to be hostile to each other." Alicia said.
"That's in the past." Char's tone was calm, "Now, the vast majority of the Western world is a believer in the Supreme Lord. ”
He looked at Alicia, "Would you give up what you had?" ”
Alicia fell silent.
"The water is going to get mixed." Char muttered in a low voice, "Then stir it up a little more."
"Click~"
Isabel pushed open the gates of the castle and led Catherine directly into the Isle of Skye.
After leaving the feast, Isabel did not immediately take Catherine back to the Isle of Skye, but took her to the streets of Britannia.
They bought some groceries and magical supplies to study, and then returned to Skye Island through the castle gates.
Nowadays, there are not only magic shops on Skye, but also in front of the Magic Association.
The reason why I didn't go to Sky Island to buy it was because the Magic Association could use shapeshifting phantoms, and Sky Island couldn't do it.
So it's better to go to the former faster.
After learning magic, it can really be a lot lazy.
Char had long since disconnected the entrance to the castle office.
So at this moment, you can only enter Sky Island through this Char's property on the edge of Sky Island.
"You're lucky." Isabel walked ahead and said to Catherine behind her.
"If you want to get into Skye, you have to take a train.
Apparition is forbidden here, as well as the use of any type of space-shift magic.
In this world, only one being is allowed to set up a spatial door here. ”
Ekaterina asked, recovering from the shock of the island floating in the sky.
"Is it Char?"
"That's right." Isabel said.
"Why?"
"Because, the entire Sky Island belongs to him, or rather, he created it." She said.
Catherine did not ask any further, and they entered the long path that was laid out of ginkgo.
At this time, the leaves of the ginkgo have turned completely yellow, and the leaves of the ginkgo have also fallen to the ground, dyeing the whole road into a yellow dream world.
Such trees are rarely seen in the lands of Tsarist Russia, but there is a ginkgo grove at the Maraschiev estate near Moscow.
However, they were introduced from abroad, and they were all young, and they were far less fantastic than the trees here.
There was a slight distraction in her eyes, and the natural colors were always the most striking.
"He planted these ginkgo trees." Isabel said, "There are also a lot of them in the school, and he loves the trees. ”
Catherine nodded, and she turned her head to look through the gap between the trees to look at the languid white clouds parallel to her, feeling the breeze blowing as the island moved.
"Is this island really floating?"
Isabel paused in place, turned her head to look at her, and then, as she did, looked at the sea of clouds through the cracks in the trees.
"You're very good, in the world of magic, even seeing is not necessarily believing, and having such awareness is not a bad thing.
But ......"
She also looked at the sky in the distance, "This island is literally floating above this world, and it is flying in an irregular orbit chasing the sun.
This is also an incredible miracle in the world of magic, but the man did it. ”
Needless to say, Catherine also knew who the man Isabel was talking about.
It seems that even in this world, that man is the most special existence
The ginkgo path was not long, they quickly walked out, and Catherine's eyes were attracted by the complex of buildings not far away.
Because it was too conspicuous, although the palace where she lived in the previous life was more artistic, it was not as large as this castle complex.
She even saw some children flying over the castle on broomsticks.
Flights are generally not allowed over the school, and apparently, they are taking some flying lessons.
In the vicinity of the castle complex, she saw many creatures that did not exist in the world.
"That's Hogwarts?" Catherine asked.
Isabel nodded, "That's where you'll go to school in the future." I will fill in Alicia's name as a guardian, I will help you pay the tuition fees, and you can also ask me for living expenses, Char will reimburse me anyway.
There are dormitories in the school, and most of the time you live in the school.
However, for example, during some Christmas holidays, you can go back to the mobile castle, the house you came out of, and live with them. ”
"Can I go back?" She asked.
"Nominally, of course, you were adopted by them, weren't you?" Isabel said.
She laughed, "So, you're lucky." Their lives are much more colorful than many people's.
Do you know that gate? A special kind of spatial magic.
In the morning, you can go to Beichen for breakfast.
At noon, you can take a stroll through the lavender gardens of Provence.
In the evening, you can watch the sun set on the beach on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. ”
"Sounds good." Ekaterina said.
"None of their own daughters are enjoying this life." Isabel said.
"Why?" Catherine asked.
"It used to be a very cute little guy." Isabel sighed, "But it's different now, I saw it last time, it's really beautiful, but it's also smart and scary, and it's a little dark, it's still cuter than before." ”
"Why didn't she enjoy it?" She continued.
"Specifically, I didn't ask, but the child has a disease, more like a curse, and it will be better if he leaves his parents."
"Is there still such a curse?" Ekaterina frowned and said, "Separation of children from their parents is the cruelest thing in the world. ”
"They will also see each other from time to time, but they can't use their parents, and they have never been absent from the child's childhood." Isabel said, "At least for now, she's growing well. ”
She looked at Catherine, "He said you would have a special kind of magic?" ”
Ekaterina nodded somewhat uncertainly.
"Can you show me that?"
Catherine was silent for a moment, "I'm not sure either, I've never used it. ”
But as she spoke, she looked around, then crouched down, swept away the yellow leaves, and found a stick inside.
She grabbed the root and tried to convey the magic in the way of memory.
Under Isabel's gaze, around the wooden stick, a circle of magic circles emitting divine brilliance appeared.
Then, the stick gives off a special sheen.
"Is there a magic circle......" Catherine murmured.
"Any questions?" Catherine asked.
"As you'll learn later, when magicians create magic, they usually leave spells and the like as keys to use magic for the sake of secrecy and convenience for future generations.
The circle is one of these keys, and in general, language can no longer be used as a medium.
It is a sign of a relatively advanced magic. ”
She reached out and took the stick from Catherine's hand and walked over to the ginkgo tree.
Then she slammed the stick into one side of the tree trunk.
Normally, this and thin branches would have broken easily, but a large chunk of the bark on the outside of the trunk had been broken.
"This stick should be harder than steel." Isabel said.
She looked at Catherine, "You attached hardening to her, right?" ”
Catherine nodded.
Isabel also found a piece of magic, and with the glow of magic, the stick turned into a steel rod.
"Do you also have magic?" Catherine asked.
"Yes, but it's not." Isabel said.
"This magic is called Transfiguration, but it's also based on the principle of attaching a certain kind of magic to an item."
"Actually, in the world of magic, there are many similar principles."
Isabel raised her hand, and the stick that had turned into steel slowly floated in mid-air.
"It's called levitation, the predecessor of flying, the levitation magic applied to objects."
"However, levitation can only be called levitation, not additional magic."
"Does it make a difference?" Catherine asked.
"According to the latest results from the Institute of Magic, we believe that the magical system, like the scientific system, is a tree-like structure with a source.
Modern magic is similar to ancient magic in many ways, and is an extension of ancient magic.
However, unlike technology, it is a growing development.
Today's magic is more of a simplification of ancient magic.
Obviously, your additional magic is the source of that magic. ”
When the forces of fate materialize something into this world, it usually "rationalizes" these things in this world.
Or it is a conceptual fusion with something that already exists in this world and is very similar.
There is indeed magic in this world, but it has disappeared because of the arrival of the end of the law.
After the magic in the Harry Potter world was manifested, it became the magic system of this world under the influence of the power of fate.
So it is possible for them to study the existence of a connection to the magic of the past.
"Levitation can only be called levitation, and Transfiguration can only be called Transfiguration, but your additional magic is different."
Isabel said, "You can use levitation, or you can use the Transfiguration that extends from this magic.
However, you have a lot more room to use it, such as applying heat to the air to create flames. Applying heat to an object creates an explosion.
Earthquakes are created by exerting vibrations on the earth.
And that's just what I'm thinking about right now, and the scope for this magic is only going to get bigger.
As he said, your magic is an ancient god's magic......"
Catherine's azure eyes shone with a little light, like the sun shining on the crystal clear Baikal Lake.
She turned her head to look at Hogwarts.
She knew that from this moment on, she would experience a new life (end of chapter)
