Chapter 379 The Windless Curtains and the Complex Floating in the Air

Chapter 379 The windless automatic curtain and the resurrection stone floating in the air

Ministry of Magic, Department of Mysteries, Hall of the Dead.

Andy walked along the rotating stone steps to the bottom of the stone pit. Looking at the towering arch in front of him and the curtain hanging on the arch, Andy felt that the whispering voice seemed to be a little clearer.

Andy listened patiently, but still couldn't hear what those voices were saying - it didn't seem to be human language.

"The voice of the dead?"

"What is behind the curtain?"

"Is it the underworld where the dead live?"

Andy wanted to lift the curtain to see what secrets were hidden behind the curtain. But all the cells in Andy's body, including Andy's soul...they were preventing Andy from doing so.

"The dead...souls...ghosts!"

Andy has been studying ghosts for some time.

Wizards can leave their marks on the earth and walk ethereal in the places they walked in their lifetime, but only a few wizards will choose this path.

Ghosts know nothing about the mystery of death, they are just imitating life in a specious way.

This is the description of ghosts in the book.

As you can imagine, it doesn't feel good to be a ghost. But as a living person, Andy finds it difficult to understand the feeling of being a ghost.

And ghosts are not equal to souls.

"Maybe behind the curtain is a one-way street to the underworld, where the souls of the dead live. Anyone who enters will never be able to return to the world."

Andy looked at the resurrection stone in his hand.

"If there is no curtain to block it, can the resurrection stone summon the souls of the underworld to the world?"

"If this guess is true..."

Then as long as the souls of the dead are summoned back to the world, magic can be used to create a new body for them.

"Is this the real use of the resurrection stone?"

Andy has a lot of ideas, but he doesn't intend to try them one by one.

There is still a big difference between magic experiments and committing suicide.

In front of the power of "death", Andy is as small as dust. Just like people in the two-dimensional world can never understand the structure of the three-dimensional world.

In fact, Andy felt that his next move was a bit suicidal. If it weren't for the premonition in the dark, if it weren't for the third-level [Divination] talent that gave Andy a certain confidence, Andy would not have planned to make such an attempt.

"Huh——"

Walking to the archway, Andy exhaled lightly.

"Let me see!"

Andy raised his left hand high, his face solemn, and the Resurrection Stone lay quietly in the palm of Andy's left hand, emitting a faint and invisible light.

"..."

Andy put down his left hand, and the Resurrection Stone was held in the air by an inexplicable force. In the dark stone room, the light on the black stone became brighter and brighter.

Very strange!

The stone room was very dark, with almost no light; the Resurrection Stone was black, and the light on it seemed to be black as well.

But in the darkness, Andy could see the faint light emitting from the Resurrection Stone.

Without a trace of wind, the curtain began to swing violently, as if an unknown force was overflowing from behind the curtain, and this force was attracted by the Resurrection Stone and absorbed by the Resurrection Stone.

"Is this the power of the god of death?"

Andy was not sure.

In fact, up to now, everything Andy knew was just speculation. And the so-called evidence was just those ambiguous clues and some far-fetched legends.

But now it's different!

The scene in front of him is enough to prove that the resurrection stone is indeed related to the secret behind the veil.

The god of death, the deathly hallows, and the arches and veils in the death hall...they are related.

The speculation about "killing the gods" may also be true.

Someone deprived the god of death of his power!

"What about other gods?"

As a human being, Andy asked himself if he knew humans well.

Every country in the world has its own belief in gods and cultures, but if one day, gods really appear in the world, what will people do?

Fear? Afraid? Excited? Excited?

If the gods are really powerful, then it's okay.

But if human attacks are enough to break the gods' defense, Andy believes that the only result for the gods is to be placed on the experimental table.

In ancient times, people believed in gods and worshipped them.

But some powerful wizards may not covet the power of gods.

It is rumored that the prophetic ability of the Trelawney family originated from the curse of the sun god - but what if it was not a curse, but the Trelawney family stole the power of the gods?

The legendary gods always have extremely powerful power.

But are the gods really that powerful?

Do they have no weaknesses?

Humans standing at the top of the food chain on Earth, humans who invented nuclear weapons, may be bitten to death by a small poisonous insect.

Just like the saying.

As long as the defense can be broken, there is no BOSS that cannot be killed!

Looking at all this in front of him, many thoughts flashed through Andy's mind.

The scene in front of him was not amazing. There was neither a strong energy fluctuation nor a terrifying momentum as vast as the abyss. Some... just a plain stone floating in the air and a black curtain swaying without wind.

However, this ordinary scene proved a terrible history to Andy.

The power of the god of death was stolen by wizards!

The Deathly Hallows...are really about death!

Legend has it that anyone who gets the three Deathly Hallows can become the master of the God of Death.

If this legend is true...

Just imagine, would the God of Death give such an important thing to a human?

"The power of the God of Death!"

Andy quietly looked at the Resurrection Stone floating in the air.

"Will there be any new changes in the Resurrection Stone after absorbing the power of death?" Andy was a little expectant, but also a little scared.

Time passed by.

Andy waited patiently while taking out the Polyjuice Potion and taking a sip.

Although he couldn't pretend to be Sirius, John Dawlish's identity could still allow Andy to hide his identity.

After all... who would suspect that a thirteen-year-old wizard would be so bold as to sneak into the Ministry of Magic?

"Hmm... a little cold?"

After standing here for a long time, Andy suddenly felt a chill that penetrated deep into his bones.

This chill came very suddenly. In just a dozen seconds, Andy felt that his body was frozen stiff.

"Hiss——"

Andy exhaled a breath of white air.

The temperature did drop, and the walls around the stone chamber seemed to be covered with a light layer of white frost.

"It came from behind the curtain!"

Andy took a few steps back, holding the wand tightly in his hand, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should leave temporarily.

After hesitating for a moment, Andy turned around with the wand in his hand, used the fire spell to draw a circle of fire around himself, trying to use the temperature of the fire to dispel the cold.
