Chapter 726: Luna and the Bronze Eagle

On weekdays, Luna usually doesn't like to join in the fun, because she prefers to wander aimlessly by herself rather than gather with many half-acquainted people.

But many people know that she is indispensable in every Quidditch House Cup match, and she will wear an exaggerated and strange hat in almost every match to cheer for the players in the field— —Gryffindor is a lion hat, Ravenclaw is an eagle hat, and Hufflepuff will be replaced by a badger hat.

Well, in fact, she also wears a hat during the Slytherin College team's games, but it's just the decoration that represents the opponent all the time...

This kind of her will always make some people who notice her mistakenly think that she likes to gather in crowded places, but in fact, she is only for those "friends" who are swaying their youth on the field.

Just like in recent days, the International Alchemy Competition being held in the vestibule can be said to be the biggest event at Hogwarts so far. But she only went there once on the first day, and the rest of the time she either read silently in the library, or wandered around the castle to relax.

But today, she has basically been in the library since the morning, sitting face to face with Hermione and reading a lot of books about the principles of spell casting. Until now, after going to Professor Flitwick's office on the seventh floor to ask a few questions, she was going back to the dormitory to take a nap.

Just when Luna slowly walked up to the eighth floor in the most leisurely daily trance state, and walked along the corridor to the wooden door of the Ravenclaw common room, a strange boy who seemed a little anxious walked through the door The spiral staircase on the side came up.

Of course that boy was Erns Taon who was rushing to the principal's office, but Luna didn't know him at all.

At first she didn't really care at all, because the warm sunlight in Professor Flitwick's office made her drowsy unconsciously.

But at the moment when the two passed by, a faint green light caught Luna's attention.

"Well?"

She turned around suddenly,

The green light seemed to be coming from the boy's back, but it was not obvious because of the cover of the robe.

"He must have kept the Irish ghost in his back pocket..."

Luna muttered leisurely, looked back several times, and then reached out and knocked on the door of the common room.

There is only one entrance to the Ravenclaw Tower, and if little wizards want to enter, they must knock on this bare old wooden door and answer the questions of the bronze eagle knocker. Only by answering the questions correctly, will this seemingly insecure door, which is actually extremely strong, be opened.

Luna liked to answer questions about the little bronze eagle on the door knocker, because many of the questions were very interesting.

But at this moment, when she tapped on the door panel again as usual and made a "tuk-duk" sound, the eagle's beak on the door knocker suddenly screamed.

"Boy, you finally came to find Master Ying. It seems that you have already given the trouble to..." The bronze eagle finally realized something was wrong when he was halfway through speaking, "Gah? You—little girl, who are you?"

If it was normal, the bronze eagle on the door knocker would always speak out in a rhythmic tone after someone knocked on the door. It was the first time Luna heard such emotional words like today.

"Oh!" She stared at those silver-gray eyes, and said a little strangely, "Little guy, how are you?"

"Hey! You little girl, tell me clearly! Who is the 'little guy'!"

Hearing this, the bronze eagle flew up from the door knocker, and after circling in mid-air, it landed straight on Luna's head, pulling her hair with its beak.

"Oh--"

Luna wobbled and took two steps back, and suddenly closed her hands above her head, holding the bronze eagle in her palms like swatting a mosquito.

And after that, she put her closed hands in front of her face and opened them gently, watching the bronze eagle slumped in her palms and blinked.

"I'm Luna Lovegood...and you?"

"Master Ying, I don't need a name!" The bronze eagle muttered feebly, lying in Luna's hands and couldn't get up, "...Master Ying, I can come and go freely within the scope of this school, Even that old fellow Salazar failed to catch me once. But I never thought that I was just inattentive today, and I was caught by a little girl like you..."

"Oh, so you are good at hide and seek?" Luna asked in a daze.

"Humph!"

The bronze eagle snorted softly, and suddenly disappeared from Luna's hand. When it reappeared, it had already stood on Luna's shoulder.

"Forget it, forget it, Lord Eagle, I'm going to die today! Oh, what a bad day..." It complained a few more times, and then continued, "Uh-huh...then, little girl, it seems that you are the new Is there a candidate?"

Speaking of this, it didn't wait for Luna to answer, and continued talking on its own.

"Quack...Since that's the case..." it said, "Although there were some mistakes at the beginning, the process that should be followed can't be avoided. Little girl, are you ready to answer Master Ying's question?"

When it asked the question "are you ready?" last time, Maca was standing here. But since it didn't give Maca any time to prepare, it's naturally the same for Luna today.

Before Luna could speak, the question of the bronze eagle came up.

"Answer, little girl—" it quacked, "Where did the dead things go?"

Maca also answered this question back then. That night, Maca's answer was "turning into nothingness", but Luna obviously would not answer in such a blunt form.

"Dead things?" She said with misty eyes, "No more."

"Then what will they become?" Kitty Hawk asked again, and the question changed to a certain extent following Luna's previous answer.

After hearing this, the girl tilted her head slightly.

"Become all."

The bronze eagle nodded.

"Of all the things in the world, what is the truth?"

Obviously, even if there is a change in form, the essence of the set of questions asked by the Bronze Kitty Eagle will not be much different.

Therefore, the question went back to the "truth" that Maca was asked at the beginning.

"The ones that exist absolutely, and the ones that exist relatively." Luna thought for a while and replied.

Compared with Maca's "material spirit theory", Luna's vision is actually more emotional. But in fact, there is no difference between the two answers corresponding to the absolute truth of "matter" and the relative truth of "spirit".

And then, the fourth question asked by the bronze eagle just proved this point.

"Quack quack, very good—" it smiled, "So in the end...the 'absolute' or the 'relative', which one will be destroyed first?"

This is a discussion of "from nothing to something and then back to nothing", the so-called "circulation" is like this, and Maca answered that way back then.

But Luna just looked at the bronze eagle and shook her head quietly.

"I do not know."

Just like the question "which came first, the egg or the chicken" that Muggle philosophers often confuse, sometimes it can be a good answer not to forcibly untie a closed circle.

"Hmm..." The bronze eagle shook its head and considered for a while, "If this question is placed first, it will be an honest person's answer; if it is placed last, it will become a smart person's answer." The human answer... is neither bad nor bad, neither is bad!"

At this point, the little eagle smoothed its feathers casually, and smacked its lips again.

"Little girl, congratulations on passing the first test, and you are eligible to enter Rowena's secret room. Now, are you ready?"

"Rowena?" Luna asked curiously, "Rowena Ravenclaw?"

"Quack - that's right!"

The bronze eagle hopped happily on her shoulders, and jumped directly on top of her head, and then the two figures, one big and one small, shook at the same time, and disappeared in the blink of an eye at the same time.

...

When Luna, by a certain coincidence, embarked on a trip to Rowena's secret room like Maca back then, Maca had already staged a thrilling high-magic duel with Haierbo.

Maca, who has a certain ability to resist the soul rule, is still dealing with Haierbo by virtue of the power of the cooling rule. The peak use of the power of the first-level rules turned this deep mountain forest in Albania into a terrible winter, with frost and snow everywhere.

Although Haierbo's soul magic is really powerful, as long as he still has a physical body, he will always be threatened by the rules of the material plane. If the consumption of both sides is not considered, Maca can still fight him.

But obviously, after a series of offensive and defensive transitions, Maca's decline can't help but start to show.

However, at this moment, even Haierbo couldn't help but admit that if he wanted to win Maca just like this, it could only be said to be a dream.

In the forest, streams of cold currents fluttered and danced from everywhere, circling like ribbons mixed with glittering and translucent sequins, attacking Hai Erbo's place.

Maca's speed made up for his lack of apparition. It is very difficult to pinpoint his position with the soul magic of a single body, only the range effect will make him have to bear and resist secretly.

On Haierbo's side, he made full use of some ancient magic similar to the apparition spell, flickering in various places in the forest. Occasionally dodges the flying attack of the cold current, occasionally simply interrupts Maca's spellcasting, and sometimes even uses other magic to sneak attack on Maca.

Just like this moment, Maca got rid of the series of rock thorns following behind him at a very fast pace, and even he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat——

"This old guy's prediction is really accurate!"

If he hadn't kept some points, the last three stone cones might have pierced through his body.
