Chapter 213 Witch Valley
Ireland, the McGillicuddy Mountains, located in County Kerry, Republic of Ireland, stretch for 19 kilometers and are close to the Killarney Three Lakes in Killarney National Park. Of course, in the wizarding world, this place is also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic of Great Britain, rather than a country with an independent government.
The boundaries and sovereignty distribution of wizarding countries mostly overlap with those of the Muggle world, but examples like Ireland are not the only ones.
For example, North and South Korea in the Muggle world actually belong to the same regime in the wizarding world, which is the Korean Ministry of Magic. Another example is that Transylvania in the wizarding world does not belong to Romania like it does in the Muggle world, but is an independent country. Regime of the Ministry of Magic in Transylvania.
The MacGillicuddy Ranges are more than 19 kilometers long and include the highest mountain in Ireland, Mount Carentour. When the weather is fine and the climate is pleasant, many Muggle tourists come here to climb mountains and enjoy the scenery.
Of course, due to the Muggle Expelling Curse, Muggles will subconsciously ignore many strange details of the mountaineering journey, such as an empty wasteland that should not appear here in a certain section of the journey.
After the implementation of the International Secrecy Law, many wizards chose to settle here, especially in the area near Mount Caranthuel, and there were at least two villages where wizards gathered.
Wizards who are close to Muggles will choose to live in Coomloughra Valley (Coomloughra), which is a mixed town between wizards and Muggles like St. Catchpole Village, located in the west of the Carantuer Mountains.
Separated from this village and town by the Coomcallee Mountains is the Coomcallee Valley. This valley is located in the eastern part of the Carentous Mountains. It is known as the "Hag's Glen" and is a place that excludes Muggles. , the residence of an extreme pure-blood wizard who does not want to have any interaction with Muggles.
(Note: Because Witch’s Glen is easier to remember, for the convenience of readers, this article uses “Witch’s Glen” instead of “Comgari Valley” from this paragraph onwards)
Because the Gaunt family inherited their ancestor Slytherin's extreme respect for pure blood, they all chose to settle in Witch Glen and establish a family. It was not until the generation of Isolt Thayer's mother, the founder of Ifamouni, that this situation changed. Isolt's mother, Leona Gaunt, fell in love with William Thayer, a member of the Thayer family, a prominent Irish wizard family in the next town, and married him. After their marriage, they moved to the Comlogra Valley to settle down, and learned how to How to get along and live with Muggles.
This caused dissatisfaction with Leona's sister, the famous dark witch Gormlaith Gaunt. One night, Gormlaith sneaked into their home and burned their whole family to death with a fire spell. Only Isolt was left alone. She took her back to the Witch's Glen for training, learning black magic and forcing her to watch... Curses torture Muggles. But Isolt was not successfully brainwashed by her. Instead, after learning a certain amount of magic, she stole her aunt's wand and smuggled to the New World of North America, and then founded Ilvermony Magic Academy after a series of wonderful adventures.
This is also the reason why Xie Lin chose to have Dobby apparate to the Witch's Glen. With Slytherin's character of admiring the supremacy of pure blood, if he leaves a legacy, it will definitely be near this village that rejects Muggles, not The village on the other side of the mountain.
The two of them, plus a house elf, slowly explored the surrounding area according to the instructions on the map. Finally, after passing through an extremely hidden mountain path, and then through a dark and dark cave, they finally came to a place surrounded by mountains. empty basin.
Schelling was sure that this was the place marked on the map, but there was nothing unusual about it. Sulf and Dobby walked around, exploring any mechanism that might be hidden.
Xie Lin had the experience of exploring Hufflepuff's crypt in the past. He immediately used his magic eyes and scanned in all directions. There was a faint wave of magic filling the air.
He followed the strength of the magic wave and moved forward step by step, and finally found a different magic wave on a rock. He pushed the rock away hard and found a magic mark carved on the bottom of the rock. They were two ferocious green pythons with fangs exposed, entangled and intertwined around a scepter-like thing. Xie Lin finally confirmed that he Found the right place.
He called Sulf and Dobby over.
"Is this the emblem of the Gunter family?" Salv frowned, "Why is it different from what I know?"
"No, this is not the emblem of the Gaunt family," Schelling explained, "but the most original emblem of the Slytherin family. Since the surname Slytherin has powerful magic attached to it, his direct descendants cannot bear it. This surname can only be changed to Gunter, and the design of the family emblem has also undergone slight changes. "
"So, what should we do now?" Sulf tried to command the two giant pythons on the mark in snake language, but received no response.
Xie Lin pondered for a moment and said: "What Slytherin values most is the blood of wizards. And his most powerful magic is black magic and Legilimency. Looking at these two points..."
When it comes to bloodline, it must be a requirement for the purity of the bloodline. I am afraid that only the children of the oldest pure-blood families can meet this qualification, and the Malfoy family to which Schelling belongs happens to be one of them.
Otherwise, let alone Muggle wizards and mixed-blood wizards, even second-class pure-blood families such as Goyle, Crabbe, and Blackie may not be able to meet the conditions.
Xellin took out the magic wand and gently scratched his palm. The bright red blood flowed out rapidly and dripped onto the magic mark bit by bit. Then he aimed the magic wand at the magic mark and said loudly: "Captivate the mind!"
A green light flashed on the magic mark, and Xielin's blood was absorbed by the two green pythons in an instant. The two green pythons seemed to come alive, making a loud hissing sound, and slowly loosened the snake body wrapped around the scepter. The unblocked scepter suddenly turned into a stream of light and shot into Xielin's head.
This is a method similar to the meditation basin, which can keep one's memory in the world through magic. It can only be stimulated through a specific way, so that the memory can be directly sent to the heir's consciousness.
After taking the medicine and sleeping for a whole day, it seems that my spirit is worse. I have been drowsy all the time. I can only write so much. Please bear with me.
