Chapter 764 Novia
When they arrived at Gringotts, Purgna and his team were still waiting in the side hall. To be precise, Purgna was losing his temper. An unlucky guy broke an unearthed statue. This kind of loss was very important to Gringotts. Speaking of fairies...
"You idiot..." Purgna's roar came from a distance.
"Do we have to deal with him?" Hermione frowned.
"It seems that we have no other choice. We can't just break into the underground treasure house of Gringotts. You know, there are sphinxes and fire dragons squatting there."
"This is not a good idea. No one has ever broken into Gringotts." Bill said, "But the previous Gringotts theft in the UK was quite interesting."
"Quite interesting?"
Fan Lin shook his head. It was just a play directed and acted by Dumbledore, and most of the people, including Harry, were just a bunch of people who didn't know the truth.
However, Purgnar's curse was still very unpleasant, at least it made Hermione feel uncomfortable, so Fanlin had to go over and talk to Purgnar in advance.
"Hello, Mr. Purgner, I'm sorry to disturb you, but I went back and thought about it carefully, and I decided to join your excavation team. It just so happens that I also want to see what the Pharaoh's tomb looks like."
"I'm very happy that you made a wise decision. No wonder Mr. Nicoléme chose you to be his heir," Purgner said happily, "But don't worry, it's just some simple alchemy." The problem is, that damn door, we can’t find his pattern at all.”
"Then when do we set off?" Fan Lin said, "I don't think we have that much time to waste."
"Oh, of course." Purgner said, "Time is gold. It just so happens that my excavation team has been waiting here for three full days. If possible, I think we can set off now."
"That's what I mean, Mr. Purgner. However, I can't guarantee that I will help you solve this problem. After all, I have only learned alchemy not long ago." Fan Lin frowned, and he was not sure that he would be able to solve it. The problem given to him by the goblin.
"It doesn't matter, you are here anyway, right? As for the reward, don't worry about it. The Jade Record is very safe in Gringotts' treasure house." Purgner smiled. The elf's smile was indeed ugly.
"Okay, idiot, get back to the team." Purgner waved his hand and began to direct his excavation team.
"Novia, give the alchemist the drawings of Hall No. 2, and he will help me solve those damn mechanisms." Purgna said, and a girl ran over from the excavation team.
"There are still girls in this excavation team?" Hermione looked at Bill strangely.
Fan Lin looked at the girl carefully. She was an Egyptian, about sixteen or seventeen years old, about the same age as Furong. Her skin was a little darker, and her black hair was tied behind her head by a leather rope.
Novia's facial features are very regular, and she seems to have inherited the characteristics of the Egyptians. She has big eyes and a very straight nose. She is a very beautiful girl.
What interests Fanlin the most is the decoration on Novia's body.
Egyptian women always wear a lot of jewelry, mostly gold jewelry.
But it is rare to see Novia, there is an indescribable ability. Apart from a golden earring, there are only necklaces hanging around her neck and bracelets on her wrists.
Fan Lin looked carefully and saw that it was a necklace made of white animal teeth. He had seen it in a magic shop. It was a tool to assist in casting spells and also had a good luck effect.
Perhaps they got it from that tribe in Africa. There was a curved dagger and a magic doll hanging on Novia's waist. This can be regarded as a characteristic of Egyptian magic. At least, Fanlin didn't know that they put his Where is the wand hidden?
"Mr. Bill." Novia seemed to be very familiar with Bill.
"Oh, hello, Novia, you still look so energetic." Bill said with a smile.
"It's okay. I've had a good time relaxing in the past two days, but Mr. Purgner is very dissatisfied." Novia stuck out her tongue.
"Well, Purgner didn't make things difficult for you, right?" Bill said with a smile.
"It's okay. I'm only here to help temporarily anyway. There's no need for Mr. Purgna to make things too difficult for me." Novia said with a smile.
"However, these few..."
"Oh, Fanlin Al, nice to meet you." Fanlin stretched out his hand and said, "I think the drawings in your hand should be handed over to me."
"Are you the alchemist?" Novia said, "I didn't expect you to be so young. I thought the alchemists Pogner was looking for were all middle-aged and elderly people who were unkempt."
"Then I'm just in an experimental state." Fan Lin said speechlessly. This girl seemed to be a little too upright.
"Ah, I'm sorry." Novia seemed to have remembered something, "I haven't introduced myself to you yet, just call me Novia. I am now working in Mr. Purgna's excavation team."
"Hello."
"Nice to meet you, you should be here..."
"You idiots, hurry up." Purgner's roar came from inside again, "If those idiots can't be notified yet, tell them that they are fired."
"Sorry, but it seems I have to go back to find them now. Mr. Purgner's temper..." Novia stuck out her tongue as if she was a little embarrassed, but the girl still ran back quickly.
…
"Novia, now working in the excavation team of Purgna." Bill said.
"Obviously, but in that girl's body..."
"That's magic." Bill said, "Egyptian magic is witchcraft in British terms, but you won't find it strange after you have come into contact with it more."
"Witchcraft?" Hermione and others exclaimed.
Although they are all wizards, no matter what they are called, what they practice in Europe is magic, which must be strictly distinguished from witchcraft, just like magic also distinguishes between magic and black magic. It is because of witchcraft. In Europe, wizards are hunted down by the Holy See.
"Yes, it's witchcraft." Bill said nonchalantly, "Speaking of it, this thing is not all bad. It is no different from magic, but the method is more weird. However, this is a very common practice in Africa. In some primitive tribes, wizards still mix with Muggles, and some even sacrifice human beings."
"Human sacrifice, so comfortable, Novia..."
"No, that's just what a bunch of uncivilized savages do," Bill said. "They don't even have a common language. They rely on symbols and hieroglyphics to communicate."
"Novia is different from those guys. Novia herself is the daughter of a tribal chief, which is equivalent to the nobles. Novia is very talented in witchcraft. It is precisely because of this that Purgna took advantage of it. Novia will be allowed to work in his excavation team before he graduates."
"Graduated?" Fan Lin asked, "Is she a student of Karnak?"
"Well, after all, Novia is only one grade higher than you, but that girl is not very restless. Otherwise, she would not come to Pogna for internship this holiday. Her father also paid for it. A sum of money was entrusted to Purgna to take care of Novia, but Novia did not know about it." (To be continued)
