Chapter 405 Golden Cave and Crystal Tree

Ivan has seen many Portkeys before, and they all exude a more or less magical aura.

That's a sign that magic works, even the special Portkey to the Wizarding Prison of Azkaban kept under the Ministry of Magic.

But in front of him, nothing could be felt on this statue of Faust.

It is like any ordinary stone statue, without any magic hidden in it, except for the strange shape, it will not let others take a second look at it.

"Don't be surprised, like the other statues around here, it's really just an ordinary stone sculpture, and only the right spell can turn it into a portkey." Flamel explained, "The space where the book is located has been destroyed by the ancient and powerful It is protected by magic, and no one can enter it without using the right method. This statue is the only way to get there, and I used alchemy to leave a locator in it that leads to that space."

As we all know, a port key is a magical item that can quickly transform a person from one dimension to another, and it is generally an inconspicuous thing.

Making a Portkey requires reporting to the Department of Magic Key Office, whose spell is Mentos.

As long as the destination is in mind when chanting the mantra, it can be made.

But obviously, what Ivan saw in front of him was different from common door keys.

First of all, it is definitely not under the control of the Ministry of Magic. Moreover, after being transformed by LeMay, it must be activated with a special spell, and it is an alchemy tool specially used to lead to the space where the "Book of Abraham" is preserved.

"Have you seen the opera Faust?" Flamel asked softly.

He didn't rush to use magic, but turned to look at Ivan.

Under the gaze of the other party, Ivan shook his head, indicating that he had never seen it.

"Then I suggest you take a look. Although this is an opera created by Muggles, it is indeed a very classic and great work that can help you understand many philosophies of life. At critical moments, I encourage you to move on. LeMay said slowly in an old voice, "Remember, people who work hard for a lifetime will inevitably go astray. Even if the heart is shrouded in darkness, a good person still understands what is the frank and right way... .”

He recited a few famous lines from Faust, and then stopped to rest for a while, as if to leave time for Ivan to think carefully about the meaning of these words.

"My dear child, you are the inheritor I choose!" A few minutes later, Flamel said in a heavy voice with a serious expression, "I hope you will not be obsessed with eternal life, rights, and wealth like me. In terms of the benefits, it is to be able to go all the way to the end and learn the real secrets contained in the "Book of Abraham."

After he finished speaking, he patted Ivan on the shoulder and walked to the statue of Faust and the devil in front of him.

"There is promise in the beginning!" Flamel said softly.

He glanced at Ivan again before quickly tapping the statue with his wand.

There was a flash of faint blue light, and the statue shook.

Now, Aiwen can feel the looming magic power from it. This statue has changed from an ordinary stone carving to a door key, and the spell is from the beginning!

This sentence also comes from Faust, pointing to the origin of all things.

Literally, it means that it is not words or ideas that implement and create everything, but practice and behavior.

As long as people work hard, it is inevitable to make mistakes.

So don't stop trying because you're afraid of making a mistake, making a mistake, and making a mistake.

"Are you ready?" Flame put his hand on the statue, signaling Ivan to do the same, "We'd better hurry up and don't keep Albus waiting!"

As soon as Ivan put his hand on the door key, the statue of Faust shattered in an instant, and a soft blue light emerged from it.

The light changed, and the world in front of him changed accordingly, and Ivan felt dizzy.

In the strange world of brilliance, he was propelled forward by an invisible force, and everything around him became distorted, as if he had entered a strange tunnel.

I don't know how long the time has passed. When Aiwen regained consciousness, he found himself in an empty and huge cave.

The light in front of him was dim, and in front of him, the statue changed from a portkey to a stone sculpture again.

And this is what Aiwen can see at first sight. Under the contrast of colors, the originally small statue of Faust is too obvious at this moment.

Behind the statue, the strangely shaped, vertically downward stalactites on the rock wall, ground and roof of the cave are not made of rough stones, but are all made of dazzling gold, and gold is everywhere as far as the eye can see.

This is an underground cave made of gold! ! !

Aiwen looked around in surprise, and only then did he really understand the meaning of the phrase turning stone into gold.

Before this, he had never imagined that Flamel would use the Philosopher's Stone to turn the entire cave into gold. This is simply crazy!

Apart from shock, he couldn't find other adjectives to describe the scene in front of him.

In fact, he had never seen so much gold before. Compared with the gold in front of him, the wealth boasted by all the pure-blood wizard families was a joke.

No wonder LeMay repeatedly warned him before entering here.

Even though Aiwen had made up his mind, after seeing so much gold and the temptation of immortality, he still couldn't help but be moved.

He tried his best to keep his breathing steady, but his eyes couldn't help looking at the countless gold on the surrounding walls, uncontrollably.

"This is the place where I used to make the Philosopher's Stone. In countless experiments, the energy spilled from the Philosopher's Stone made this place like this." LeMay explained, "This space is tens of thousands of feet below Beauxbatons. , although it is far away, it is still under the protection of various magics in the school. The original entrance was completely sealed by me, and no one can enter here except by using this portkey."

He walked forward, and Ai Wen hurriedly followed.

The cave has a large space, and everything is golden as far as the eye can see.

Ivan had a feeling that the world was spinning. After walking a few steps, he couldn't even tell which was the bottom and which was the top.

In the golden world, everything has no boundaries, no boundaries.

Just when he felt that he was about to faint, he saw a huge ancient tree.

This ancient tree is not of any species that Ivan knows, and its trunk is enough for dozens of people to surround it.

Uncle has luxuriant branches and leaves, standing there like a huge triangular pyramid.

The leaves emit a faint light, which is the only source of light in the cave.

Aiwen moved forward a few steps, and clearly saw that the leaves and texture of the tree were all fluorescent crystals, like crystals, transparent throughout.

In the center of the trunk, in an inward tree hole, there is a very thick magic book - "The Book of Abraham" quietly! (To be continued.)
