Chapter 512: The Gears of Fate
Joan of Arc has changed the fate of many people.
And her disappearance also changed the fate of many people, such as Darniere's father Leiden.
Joan of Arc was the hallmark of his spirit, his heart, and he thought he could stand behind the legend and receive the cheers of the people after the war.
didn't expect it to be such an ending
However, in any case, it was more than ten years ago, and the past is with the wind, and what Leiden cares more about at the moment is the future of Daniel.
Hogwarts has set up spatial nodes in some parts of the Americas, as well as some cities in Europe.
Each of these nodes gives them access to a special magical station.
Due to security concerns, no one is allowed to use teleportation magic at Hogwarts except Merlin.
So, if you want to get to Hogwarts, you have to go through the train.
The town they are in is still some distance from the station.
But luckily they are not far from the train station, from which you can take a ride directly to the Cross train station.
Layton was pushing a small cart full of luggage, and Daniele followed him, searching for the gilded ticket.
They found platform 9 and platform 10 and went around several times, but they couldn't find the location of platform 9.
"Why don't you come into the station?"
Just as he was wondering, a familiar voice came from his ear.
Daniel turned his head and saw a strange man standing behind him.
He was wearing a wide pure white magic robe, with white medium-length hair casually draped behind his head, looking very young, but his eyes, which seemed to have gone through many years, made it impossible to guess his age.
All of Hogwarts' robes are based on Char's robes, so Minerva's outfit is similar to the person in front of her.
"Hello." Daniel bowed to Char.
He asked curiously, "Are you from that school too?" ”
Char smiled, "I'm a new teacher at Hogwarts, so I'm supposed to be on a train with you." ”
In fact, it was supposed to be Minerva who appeared here, but Char changed it, because he wanted to see for himself which people were most suitable to carry his fate.
In the next 100 years, the whole world will change very differently, and these children in the future will be the most critical existence in the next 100 years.
Char is not a savior after all, he is responsible for choosing a savior, which is also his duty.
Hearing that Char was the teacher at that school, Daniel's eyes lit up, and then he tried to hand the ticket in his hand to Char and asked, "Do you know where this platform is?" ”
Char didn't look at the ticket, but said, "You mean platform 9, right?" ”
In the past, because the school was built in a hurry, Char did not engage in such a classic entrance to the station.
After that, Char set up such entrances in various places.
He pointed to a wide pillar between platforms nine and ten.
"You guys have tickets in their hands, just push the cart and crash into it."
Daniel didn't seem to hear clearly for a while, "Crash into it directly?" ”
Soon, however, another magical family who had come to Hogwarts to attend school answered Darniere's questions.
Like Daniel, they pushed carts loaded with luggage.
One of the children, who was about his age, pushed the cart directly into the wall and disappeared without a trace as if jumping into the sea.
Then his parents followed.
This magical scene made both Daniel and Layton open their eyes slightly.
As soon as the family entered, Daniel heard an exclamation from beside him.
I saw a young man pointing to the wall with an unbelievable face next to the platform, and the shouting attracted the surrounding crowd to stop and watch.
"Under normal circumstances, this station would be subject to a confusion spell." Char's voice continued to come from one side, "The purpose of this spell is to confuse people's perception of this scene. Obviously, though, the mantra here was not replenished in time. ”
Before Daniel could react, there were already many people around him looking at the young man with curiosity, and he was excitedly telling others about the scene he had just seen.
The incomprehensible words of what kind of magic, what kind of door to another world, caused everyone present to burst into laughter, and the station was filled with a happy air.
Seeing that no one believed what he said, the man's face turned red, and then he fixed his eyes on the wall.
Seeing his eyes, a sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in Daniel's heart.
I saw that the young man rushed towards the wall at a speed that Daniere didn't even react to.
Boom!
It's not an exaggerated tone particle, it's the voice of the young man's forehead after intimate contact with the wall.
He slammed his head against the wall, and the whole person fell to the ground under the action of the reaction force, causing an exclamation.
It hurts to look at.
Daniel looked at the young man who had fainted on the ground, his forehead swollen with a large bag at a visible rate, and his face showed a look of pain.
"Sir, what shall we do?" Daniel asked.
"Don't worry about him." Char said, "This person's attention has been on the family since they entered the station, presumably a thief or something." Because of the concentration of attention, the confusion spell went a little wrong. ”
Daniel nodded a little incomprehensibly.
"Let's go inside." Char said.
Danielle and his father looked at each other, and the two of them took a deep breath before pushing the cart into the wall.
After a brief period of darkness, they entered the Hogwarts Express platform.
A Victorian-fashioned crimson steam locomotive is parked next to the platform.
The sign on the train reads: Hogwarts, eleven o'clock.
They looked back and saw that the place where the ticket gate had been turned into a forged archway with the words "Platform 9" written on it.
The surrounding scenes, coupled with the way they entered, gave them the feeling of traveling back in time.
Because it wasn't just ordinary people here, he also saw goblins that only reached his waist, and saw some elves with pointed ears.
Some wizards in magical robes have an owl resting on their shoulders, others holding some otters and other animals.
Hogwarts has always encouraged students to keep animals, and one is to use them when taking some druid lessons.
The second is that students need to stay in the school for a long time, away from their families, so raising an animal can be a good way to relieve the boredom in their hearts, which is helpful both physically and mentally.
Daniele was in high spirits right now, things that could only be seen in stories, but they were perfectly unfolding before his eyes at the moment.
In fact, not only him, Leiden's mood was a little jealous, who hadn't heard all the legends about the wizarding world when he was a child.
Some of the people on the platform also thought the same, they should also be Muggle families, they looked at this classical station with a look of surprise, with different expressions on their faces, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, touching the east and looking west.
Yes, there are already a lot of passengers here, the first few trains are already full of people talking to their families through the windows, and there are some naughty children playing around in the carriages with some excitement.
These are probably students and parents who are going to study at Hogwarts.
"Sir, please show me your ticket."
The sound in his ears caught Layton's attention, and he looked around, but didn't find the source of the sound.
Darniere couldn't take it anymore and tugged at his father's sleeve and motioned for him to look down.
Layton looked down and saw a leprechaun standing in front of him.
But at this moment, the goblin was no longer wearing the ugly green clothes and hat, but the work clothes of the train staff.
They are already the second or even the third generation of goblins, and they have fully integrated into the wizarding world.
Layton reacted and handed him the ticket in his hand.
He examined it carefully, then nodded, "Please leave your luggage to us, we will arrange everything, and then get in the car." ”
The leprechaun handed the ticket back, then took the trolley of luggage from Daniere's hand and pushed it to the carriage behind which the suitcase was kept.
The other leprechaun seemed to want to take the box in Layton's hand, but Layton raised his hand.
"I'll just take this."
The little goblin didn't force it, just turned around and left silently.
"Get on the train, the train is about to leave."
Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to react, Char immediately reminded.
Daniel and Layton reacted, then thanked Char and got on the train.
As Leiden and Daniel walked onto the train together, Char's voice rang out in her ears.
"I didn't expect to see you here."
A woman with bronzed skin and dressed in minority clothing stood beside him.
It was the Quetzalcoatl God, Quezal.
At her side was a teenager.
A blonde boy about the same age as Darniere, wearing a loose knitted sweater, a pair of linen trousers, some strange lines on his face, and even a few feathers on his head.
Although he looks like a Germanic person, he has a minority feel to his outfit.
"I'm still thinking about sending you an invitation." Char laughed.
"I've always kept my promises." Quezal said.
Char looked at the blonde boy standing behind Quezal and smiled.
"You're Adam, when I saw you before, you weren't as tall as my knees, and now you've grown so big, time flies."
"I've heard Quezar mention you." Adam said slowly, "You brought me to her, didn't you?" ”
"I didn't bring you to her." Char said, "It was the love of your parents and your grandfather that brought you to her. ”
Adam raised an eyebrow, but didn't speak.
"Not everyone has the guts to beg me." Char said.
He turned his head to look at the train that was about to start, "Go up and start your life." ”
Adam turned his head to look at Quezal.
Quezal smiled at him, too, "Go ahead, kid. I've told you about it a long time ago. ”
"Will we meet again?" Adam said.
Quezar's eyes flashed with an unknown light, "I never say anything about the future, but I believe that as long as you and I are still in this world, we will definitely have the opportunity to meet." ”
Adam nodded, nodded to Char, and walked slowly onto the train.
"The kid looks much more mature than he is." Char said.
"Before, he took part in a trial." Quezar didn't mean to hide it, "The trial created with the solar calendar stone has gone through a period of history, and it is estimated that it has not yet come out. ”
"Is that so" Char stared at the train in front of him, which had existed since the founding of Hogwarts, without words.
The years have not left much of a mark on the train, and it is still the same as it was at the beginning.
However, it has been with Hogwarts for more than a hundred years, and it is already older than any ordinary person in this world.
The most important seed that Char planted in this world has blossomed and borne fruit.
Wizards have formed a large, self-sufficient ecology that can be called the "wizarding world".
And at this moment, relying on the foundation created by this magical world, Char will be much simpler if he wants to weave a supernatural fate in the future.
And at this moment, this train will also carry the future of this world, pushing the gears of fate to turn slowly......
