Chapter 698 Hall
The two got up and left the office directly, and Allen gently closed the door, and they went straight to the circular room they had passed by before. As the door to the circular room closed, the circular walls swiveled rapidly.
The first thing they entered was the Hall of Time, the diamond-like jumping light in this room. Clocks can be found on every surface, ranging in size from grandfather clocks to travel clocks, hanging between bookshelves or standing on tables the length of a room.
Because of this, a rapid, never-ending ticking sound filled the room, like the sound of thousands of tiny marching footsteps. The diamond-bright jumping light came from a towering bell-shaped crystal glass dome at the far end of the room. Standing atop a desk, the bell-shaped crystal glass, as tall as a fifth- and sixth-grader, appears to be filled with a churning, sparkling air of air.
Inside the enclosure, a small, jewel-bright object floated up and down. The object is a small hummingbird, but it wasn't always a bird. At the bottom end of its loop, the bird is carrying its egg. As it rose up in the glass enclosure, it snapped open and a hummingbird emerged, rising straight to the very top of the glass enclosure. But as the airflow descends, the bird's feathers are soiled and wet again, until it lands at the bottom of the glass cover and is locked in the egg again. This time process is repeated endlessly inside the hood.
A closet with a glass front and an assortment of hourglasses hanging on the wall - this is also where the Time-Turner is kept, a magical item that's obviously prone to blunders , and in the previous battle between the Ministry of Magic and Voldemort, because of Allen's deliberate efforts, there was no large-scale damage to the Time Converter as it should have happened.
But this kind of management attitude also made Allen, who has experienced time travel himself, decide to strengthen the management of this thing in the future. The sounds of ticking and ticking of various bells in the hall are intertwined, and the new silent man wizard pays attention to it. Put it on the hummingbird: "In that huge grandfather clock, the little bird is constantly born and dies to show the scene of the cycle of time, just like the phoenix in the flames, rebirth and eternal life, I think there is a great significance. Symbolism, the alternation of life, the reincarnation of fate, you left similar questions in that bronze door knocker in the Ravenclaw lounge."
"All things return to the ring, even the circular room with twelve doors is not meaningless, my research on time is still relatively shallow, use the hour reversal spell steadily to create an area with this effect and resist the damage caused by time regression The talisman is still not a big problem. It is said that some Netheril wizards can simulate the effect of stopping time by speeding up their own speed. It is even said that there are great arcanists who have deep research in the field of time and can stop time in the true sense. , but this kind of ability obviously requires long-term special research to obtain. From my personal experience, the time domain is currently the most difficult one in my opinion--just to explain to you, our goal today is not It is not the prophecy hall where the prophecy ball is stored behind the bell-shaped glass cover, go out first." Luna's answer made Allen return his attention to her.
The next thing the two entered was the brain hall. This square room looked very bright. The room was almost empty, with only one table. In the middle of the room, there was a huge glass water tank filled with dark green liquid. , big enough for people to swim in; a lot of white stuff was floating slowly around in it - brains.
"The thoughts and thoughts produced by the most complex minds of human beings, the harm that the spirit can bring to people is not less than the harm to the body, but more terrifying. Those tentacles that can generate thoughts in the brain—" Luna looked at Allen , extending some silky tentacles from her head, like a belt with a moving image flying out of her body, unfolding in a circle like a roll of movie film,
As soon as these tentacles touched Allen's skin, they immediately began to wrap around his body like ropes.
Seeing that Alan didn't have any startle reaction, Luna took these tentacles back instantly with some disappointment: "I have achieved quite a lot in the research of the brain hall, and this kind of thinking tentacles is just the lowest-level method of using them. Doesn't work, the superficial blow of this type of physical spell can't touch the mental mind, it can cause wounds that are very difficult to heal, but because of the invention of the unfavorable doctor's oblivion ointment, and for us who have mastered other means, it acts as an attack The meaning of the means is already very small, but you have always envied me that I can detect your thoughts beyond your Occlumency, which is also derived from this."
Hearing that Allen nodded, he was actually a little happy in his heart. When he met Ravenclaw for the second time in ancient times, he decided that he must learn this ability first—and then take a good look at Luna's mind What is he thinking.
"Since studying it can obtain an enhanced version of Legilimency, then naturally you can also obtain an enhanced version of Occlumency—although the principle is not the same..." Luna smiled at Allen with her head tilted.
Allen, who was splashed with cold water, was a little ashamed, and he rushed towards the female mute with his teeth and claws. "Don't say it when you're looking at my head!"
Luna jumped to avoid the attack: "I can watch it for a while before you learn it."
The two continued to go deep into the hall of the brain, and finally came to a dark room full of planets, as if floating in the darkness, and various stars were moving in an orderly manner in front of them... As they entered, Alan It even feels like I'm floating in the air sometimes.
"This star hall is next to the brain hall, so you should regard them as a whole when you study, and some spells and prophecies related to gravity are also very related to it. Astrology, also known as astrology, is used The relative position and relative motion of celestial bodies are used to explain or predict the fate and behavior of people. After explaining the positions of the sun, moon and stars and their various changes, they are explained to predict various things in the world. Celestial bodies, especially planets and constellations , all predict the changes of all things in the world in a causal or non-accidental way. Astrology uses people's place of birth, birth time and the position of celestial bodies to explain people's character and destiny." Luna zoomed in and out at will with both hands In some corners of the universe, "Many Muggle-born wizards, and even some arrogant pure-bloods sneer at divination and prophecy, and even among the centaurs who are good at observing astrology, some people think that what planets come from orbits?" It is nonsense to predict the fate of human beings and wars. They think that what happens to people cannot affect the astrology, or blindly believe that the existence of astrology is not for whom - but in fact these influences on people are real To be precise, the influence of astrology is indeed not for a certain individual, but for all things in the world, and is also affected by all things in the world. It is only the most easily observable part of the defense line of fate. If you can follow his direction Context ignores the irrelevant clutter and you can prophesy."
"I have always attached great importance to prophecy and divination. As I researched them, I actually found that almost all of Professor Sybill Trelawney's predictions were correct, although in the end many of them came true in unexpected or even unnoticed ways Yes——Many people don't believe in fate, and dismiss the so-called "fate theory", but in fact, the reason why he can form this kind of character, in my opinion, is because of the growth experience that fate gave him. Allen expressed his affirmation of divination and prophecy. He has always attached great importance to this aspect. "You seem to attach great importance to this room? So what ability can you gain by studying this room?"
"Prophecy spells can enable you to know secrets that have been dusted for a long time, predict the future, find hidden things, and see through deception spells. It can uncover the mystery of time, space and conscious thinking, and make things look clearer. Prophecy is a A very difficult type of magic to master, as they are mutable realities shrouded in mist. You may misunderstand it, or it may change in the future due to other influences. But as your skill improves, The way you look at things is no longer the eyes of a mortal—you have no divine power like me, and gods are more or less born with this ability regardless of their priesthood, so you will be better than me at the beginning. It's more difficult." As she spoke, Luna touched Alan's chin, and as she stroked the fluff of the beard that had just emerged, it fell off automatically like the hummingbird in the Hall of Time before, "No Beards are nicer, and in addition to prophecy, it allows you to have an effect on things that sound more ethereal."
"Let me guess..." Allen touched his chin, which had become completely naked again, and then thought of the name of the goddess pretended by the other party: "Is it luck?"
"Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of human beings. Some people's lives are lucky, and some people's lives are full of bad luck, but very few people can control their own luck. If you study them thoroughly, then you will not only You can predict and see them, and you can even lift the veil of chance, circumstance and chaos, and glimpse the real possibility in the depths. When the elements of fate come into play, there will be countless possible outcomes, which are not What cannot be groped, because of the understanding of these, you can see through the essence of fate more clearly, "chance" is not what most mortals think, from this kind of biased and careful groping, you can forcibly weave Change the probability of things happening, and gain the ability to manipulate the fate of others to a certain extent." Luna was obviously quite satisfied with Alan's sensitivity, and she stroked Alan's bare chin for a while, "During the holiday, except for Helena and You need our joint participation in learning the Nether scroll, and your remaining energy should be put in the brain hall and the universe hall—you haven’t had time to seriously explore the seventh floor of our tower, the brain hall that I imitated, The Office of Time and the Department of Mysteries are the same."
As for the two rooms in the basement of the tower, Alan has never had time to go there to carefully examine and study them. Hearing Luna's words, Alan put this matter on his agenda. In ancient times, he asked Luna to help store them. Everything is still fresh in the time hall in the tower.
