Chapter 666 Return

After bringing Merlin's sister and brother-in-law to Hogwarts for a meal, Allen returned to the Black Lake.

Allen brought the death knights who are destined to be replaced with better equipment in the future, but now they only use ordinary weapons and armor to satisfy Allen's personal hobbies. Together, they walked into the lake in a mighty way, and went to the cave surrounding the depths of Hogwarts Black Lake.

The naturally formed texture drawn with devil's blood on the huge cave wall looks exactly the same as what Allen saw last time. Under the effect of magic, it has not been eroded by the years.

Walking into it, the zombies wearing Muggle armor are no longer building the mage tower in full swing. Except for the signs of being corroded by negative energy left by the undead creatures who have been active here for a long time, it is quiet here, Ravenk Law's mage tower has disappeared from this cave.

Allen brought these death knights to a tributary cave at random, and ordered them to go in. As the magic power tumbling, the soil splashed and formed small neat mounds beside it, and a huge pit appeared in this cave.

According to Allen's order, these death knights were neatly arranged in the pit, and then the soil was sprinkled on them again. These death knights who obeyed Allen's orders did not blink their eyes, just letting the soil They bury.

On the top of the soil, Allen used his staff to meticulously imprint the ancient runes on the ground, outlining the soil where these death knights were buried, exuding a faint red and black light. Allen arranged formations on the soil that can absorb negative energy, so that it can be ensured that these death knights have enough energy to maintain their bodies, so that they will not rot during the long years of waiting .

After doing all this, the wizard tried to perceive the position of the blood oath, and found that Rowena Ravenclaw had completely covered his position. Allen estimated that the other party had not yet become a real false god, and could She hasn't mastered the method to keep her youthful appearance, so she doesn't want to see herself at all this time.

Shrugging helplessly, Allen left the message of asking the other party to help take care of the Death Knight in the cave, then stepped into the shadows and teleported back to Bonnie's office at Hogwarts.

For Merlin, coming to Hogwarts certainly brought him a very novel feeling, but when he saw Alan in the vice principal's office, he felt very sad. It means that he is about to part with his mentor, which makes him a little sad and sad, who has already had some feelings of dependence on his mentor. He has experienced too many separations recently.

Even if Allen could detect Merlin's mind, the reluctance written on Merlin's face made him understand what he was thinking and thinking at once. Allen took out the time converter hanging around his neck with his hands, and a small part of the pink sand in the last small gourd did not fall into the gourd below, which means that Allen can stay in this time and space for a while longer time.

"I will find a hotel in Hogsmeade Village to stay for a short time and rest for a while. By the way, I will find some materials and finish the oak wand that I will give you. In addition, if you want, you can finish teaching you and you in Bonnie every day." My sister and brother-in-law learned to read and write, and I came here later. Since I have become your tutor, I should always teach you something myself." Seeing that he couldn't go back immediately anyway, Alan started to really teach himself. The idea of ​​an apprentice for a period of time should be responsible.

"Teacher, I will be on time!" Merlin was overjoyed when he heard that his mentor would stay for a while, and he would teach himself how to learn magic for a while.

The next period of time was a rare calm after this time change. Allen taught Merlin in the hotel room in Hogsmeade Village every day, telling him some of his own experience and things that need attention in magic. Merlin listened, hoping that Merlin would avoid some detours in the process of studying magic, broaden his horizons, increase his knowledge so that he would not go on the wrong path of pure white or pure black wizards...

For little Merlin,

The heavy daily homework has made him very tired who has never attended class, but he still insists on walking to Hogsmeade every day, and earnestly learns from the instructor, although Merlin has actually just recognized the entire alphabet now, let alone Knowing the esoteric theory of magic spells, Allen still taught his apprentices to try to keep the oral knowledge in their hearts as much as possible, and used a lot of practical demonstrations to make Merlin have a basic concept in his mind--not yet Reading and writing and the demon blood of the bottomless abyss made it difficult for Merlin to learn some of Alan's strong lawful and inductive over-organized knowledge, but it also made him very talented in the actual demonstration of Alan-especially Allen was also quite surprised by his talent in transformation and prophecy.

In this way, bit by bit, bit by bit, in the teaching and learning, from the very beginning, Allen just developed a collection addiction like stamp collecting out of his temper, and now he is more or less like a mentor and apprentice. It's just that the time of getting together is always short, and the pink quicksand in the time-turner's hourglass is running out, and the time to part is coming.

On this day, when Merlin left Hogsmeade and returned to Hogwarts, Allen let his shadow raven carry some parchment and flew out of the window, and then he checked out of the hotel, and went directly to After leaving Bonnie's principal's office, Allen explained the purpose of his trip after a while of pleasantries: "Bonnie, you can also draw a portrait of yourself and Merlin, and put it in Helga's painting, and then Put that painting in the hidden room in the Room of Requirement."

"It's time?" Bonnie looked at Alan's face that seemed untainted by any years, and remembered the reason her mentor told her. She realized that the other party was about to leave this era. This is reasonable, Bonnie It's not surprising, but what she didn't expect was that Alan's last request made her understand that Alan was obviously more emotional than he seemed, "I will Yes, but I'll put it behind the picture of the silver bowl full of fruit in front of the kitchen, and I'll put it behind the frame of that picture."

"Hufflepuff always knows how to hide—how to protect himself." Allen nodded and realized that he had taken it for granted just now. The room where things were hidden in the Room of Requirement in his era was a room that had passed through thousands of years of students and professors. It is only through our continuous efforts that we have achieved that scale, and now, for Hogwarts, which has been established for less than a hundred years, it is obvious that things put in at this time are not so easy to avoid being discovered by others.

In the end, he and Bonnie hugged for the last time as farewell to her forever. After releasing, Alan shook his hand at her again, and stepped directly into the shadows to the place where he and Ravenclaw camped in the Black Lake. .

This time, Alan didn't need anyone to see him off. He didn't disturb others, but let the shadow raven leave a farewell letter to Merlin who was still returning to Hogwarts. The letter included farewell words and some exhortations. , he also attached some of his own magic experience and records.

Then, as the last pink crystal sand slipped from the transparent gourd, Allen's figure disappeared from England in 1066 without a trace.

At this time, near London, the remaining Anglo-Saxon English nobles had made many small-scale resistances before, but all ended in failure, and the surviving British lords began to fight among themselves. The nobles headed by Earl Edwin and Morka, the last male descendant of the Wessex dynasty, who was elected as the new king of England and had not yet had time to be crowned, the nobles went out of the city to express their obedience to William. Harold, the Anglo-Saxon king who had recently defeated the last Viking invasion, was killed, and William was crowned at Westminster Abbey on Christmas Day as the third king of England that year.

William successfully conquered England and was crowned king with an iron fist. He distributed the land that originally belonged to Harold and the Anglo-Saxon nobles in southern England to the nobles who made contributions in this battle. Compressed to a limited range, all Anglo-Saxon lords who attempted to self-government were trampled underfoot.

At this time, just like his Viking ancestors, the new King William I of England made what can be called a magnificent turn. He didn't care about sitting on the throne in London and didn't bring the crown of England back to France. Less than half a month later, a rebellion broke out on French soil, and he returned to Normandy by boat with his army. The most interesting Yes, William set foot on the island of England once in his life, and then, as the nominal king of England, he never came to England again.

In 1085 and 1086, the illegitimate king sent people to investigate the actual situation and economic strength of the land of nobles and yeoman farmers throughout England, and issued a land tax survey called "Doomsday Book"—according to the above records, Merlin's hometown Crowhurst Village, already a piece of white land, has never been rebuilt.

One year later, that is, in 1087, Merlin, who had already graduated from Hogwarts Slytherin, finally avoided the defense of William's captive wizards in Mount France in July of that year and completed his revenge. , he stabbed William with the dagger named Pink Rabbit given to him by Allen, and used the power of the curse to make the wound show the words "the illegitimate son of the cobbler's daughter died by the dagger Pink Rabbit". Two months later William I, who failed to let the wizard around him lift the curse and heal his wounds, died in the Saint-Gervins Convent in Rouen. His third son, William II, was by his side. Ashamed of this way of death, The Norman dynasty had to announce that their horse king had died in a horse accident.

Upon his death, William was transported back and buried in the Abbey of Saint-Etienne in Caen, Normandy. He became fat in his later years, and when people tried to stuff him into the coffin during the burial, his body actually swelled and burst due to the power of the curse Merlin said, filling the whole church with an unpleasant smell—if Hogg in the future Watts' former Slytherin Quidditch captain, Marcus Flint here, must have recognized the smell's resemblance to a super-powerful dung egg.

Finally, when William was transported to the cemetery and was about to be buried in the ground, the accident happened again. Mordred, the bald former knight with a pot head and the current baron of Normandy, suddenly jumped out of his mind and claimed that the land of the cemetery belonged to him. Territory, and knocked down the priest Randolph Flemingbad who came to appease, and then demanded justice in front of the Breton and French nobles who came to the funeral, as well as the Norman local nobles. After paying sixty shillings in anger, the body of his father William I was buried.

As the son of William I, William II, known as the red-faced William, was not only a warrior with combat effectiveness, but also a ruthless ruler. The place he ruled was loved by only a few people; It is recorded that he was "hated by all the people". And as a gay king who has never married and never had an illegitimate child, he is even more annoyed that Mordred beat his favorite Randolph? Baron Mordred, who was controlled by the Imperius Curse, brought disaster to the family he founded.

After completing his revenge, Merlin, who no longer had the target of hatred, finally put his target back on magic, but because he learned through investigation that the vice-principal, Bonnie, knew his mentor before Hogwarts was founded. The one-sided information of time shifted from Allen's mouth made Merlin mistakenly think that his mentor Allen came from the past.

This finally made Merlin, who has no time converter, take the risk of directly using the hour after founding the Sir Merlin Order, which is dedicated to advocating the legal protection of Muggles like his sister Judith and brother-in-law Tolphy, and safeguarding their rights. The reverse spell tried to follow the steps of his mentor, but this unstable spell unexpectedly and deflected as expected, allowing Merlin to go back to the time he was in more than five hundred years ago—and the Merlin Sir Order he created had a long history. In the course of time, it has transformed from an organization initially focused on advocating Muggle rights to an awards society that usually recognizes great magical achievements.

And Merlin, who was unable to avoid the damage of time regression, was trapped in that era and did not dare to move, and finally became the best friend and mentor of King Arthur Pendragon. During the cup match, magic such as sea control that separated the black lake water helped King Arthur and helped him establish the Knights of the Round Table. In the end, Merlin guides Arthur to get the King's Sword and rule England at that time.

Finally, with the progress of the wizarding world under the leadership of Hogwarts and the subsequent establishment of the School of Magic, the wizarding society developed in the twelfth century. Merlin, a Hogwarts graduate, and Merlin during the King Arthur period were finally confirmed by wizards When it was the same person, this powerful wizard who was actually Alan Harris' magic apprentice also had the prestige he should have in the wizarding world and the Muggle world.
