Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 205 Devil's Child
With the temptation of magic wands and flying tools, the tribal wizards readily agreed to all of Moon's requests.

Of course, the three older witches thought about things in the long term.

They understood that Moon's method of identifying young wizards was only temporary and extremely dependent on the individual.

If Moon wasn't with the tribe, it would delay a lot of things.

The spirit tree is the oldest identification method passed down by the tribe. As long as it can be successfully restored, it will definitely ensure the inheritance of the tribal wizards.

However, it is Moon who can save the spirit tree now, so the three great witches have increased their trust in Moon a lot.

So after visiting the spirit tree, Moon was dragged down the mountain by the tribal wizards to the residence of the spirit tree tribe.

After a night's rest, they were taken by the tribal wizards to visit the tribal treasure house.

The location of the treasure house is very secretive, and the guards outside are very strict. There are fully armed tribal warriors patrolling almost all the time.

Although the treasure house is a large cave, the entrance can be easily found from the outside.

The gate of the cave is the same color as the mountain, there are no gaps, and there are many mechanisms inside.

These were all designed and built by the members of the Star Tribe.

After passing through all the secret passages, Moon saw rows of neatly arranged large wooden boxes.

Without waiting for Moon to ask, the Star Wizard took the initiative to come out and introduce himself.

"These boxes outside are filled with the ores that the tribe collects on a daily basis, mainly moonstone and star sand, as well as other metal minerals."

Moonstone powder is a very important potion ingredient and is often used as a demulcent.

Professor Snape once said that a powerful antidote could be made by combining swamp lilies with moonstone and other ingredients.

This stone comes in many colors, including white, orange, yellow, and light blue, among which blue is the highest quality.

Moon had never learned the name of Star Sand at Hogwarts.

However, the tribal wizards have developed many uses for it, such as constructing magic circles, divination, sacrifices, and improving the quality of weapons.

"Further in is the herbal medicine. Because the preservation period of plants is relatively short, only the herbal medicine output of the past three years is preserved here."

Moon looked in the direction pointed by the Star Wizard and saw hundreds of medicine cabinets densely packed on both sides of the cave.

Most of them are common herbs, such as worm grass, silver flower, and sweet grass root.

But the tribesmen also have their own secret herbs.

In addition to the Selma flower, there is also the Xixin sunflower which can calm the mind, and the nightmare vine which has a very strong hallucinogenic ability.

Because the latter two are more difficult to cultivate, the tribesmen have never sold them to outsiders.

After the Great Wizard finished his introduction, Moon had all the Selma flowers moved away.

These will then be given to the wizards of the Spirit Tree Tribe to practice making potions, and Moon will take the rest back to Hogwarts.

As for the other herbs, Moon took a small portion of each.

At the same time, in exchange, he immediately wrote down the formula of the hemostatic potion to the Great Wizard of Lingshu.

However, the witch felt that what Moon brought was too little, so she stuffed a few rare herbs into Moon's arms.

"High Priest, if you want to save the Spirit Tree, even if you have to take all of these, I won't feel bad."

Seeing that the Spirit Tree Wizard wanted to stuff some more herbs into his mouth, Moon quickly refused.

"Big Witch, that's enough."

Moon didn't know how to explain it to the tribal wizards.

In this world, because the medicinal value of many magical herbs has not been discovered and has not been developed on a large scale by wizards, they are generally well preserved.

In another world, these herbs are much rarer and more valuable.

The materials Moon obtained were all unique and of a kind, so their value would naturally be higher.

Of course, Moon didn't want to take too much beyond that because with his current abilities, he couldn't maximize the value of these herbs.

So the best way is naturally to temporarily store it in the tribal treasury.

In addition to herbs and minerals, the largest area of ​​the cave is occupied by various witchcraft stone carvings.

These include more than a dozen types, including witchcraft spells, gestures, chanting, crafting of witchcraft weapons, construction of witchcraft formations, making of witchcraft medicines, identification and utilization of minerals, witchcraft combat skills, cultivation of herbal plants, and so on.

This was originally carved on stone by the great wizards who were worried about problems with the tribal wizard inheritance, and they wanted to preserve it.

"High Priest, since you have arrived at Xingjin Island, I think there is no need to preserve these stone carvings anymore." The Great Wizard Hai Lan was very excited, especially after knowing that Moon could save the tribe's wizard heritage, he felt that these stone carvings had no need to exist.

"Let's keep them for now. Perhaps these stone carvings can be useful in the future."

Moon did not plan to destroy the stone carvings. In his opinion, these were good reference materials for learning ancient magic.

Moreover, when young wizards awaken in the future and need to learn ancient witchcraft, these will be very good teaching materials.

However, after hearing his words, the tribal wizards all showed embarrassed expressions on their faces.

"What? Is something wrong?"

After seeing the expressions of the tribal wizards, Moon asked curiously.

The tribal wizards looked at each other, and finally it was the Star Wizard who came forward to explain.

"There's nothing wrong, actually. It's just that the tribal treasury has been targeted by magicians outside."

"That's right. These devilish creatures sneaked onto the island, hoping to learn the secrets of the tribe's witchcraft, but we repelled them all."

Seeing that Great Wizard Xingmang had started talking, Great Wizard Hailan stopped talking and directly explained the whole thing.

Before sending warriors to look for the people of Snow Eagle Mountain, the tribal witches had actually sent people to the north to look for other members of the tribe.

But in the end, the tribesmen did not return, but instead a group of magicians in red clothes came.

The goal of these magicians is very clear, which is the wizard heritage guarded by each tribe.

After several battles, both sides suffered casualties.

The three major tribes had no choice but to concentrate their treasures in the center of the island and then guarded them closely.

"Could it be the spellcasters and the faithless on the Vena Islands?"

After listening to the explanation of the Great Wizard Hai Lan, Moon subconsciously thought of the two nearest neighbors of Xingjin Island.

"No, these magicians' attack methods are more severe, and they are very familiar with tribal witchcraft. Many of our warriors and wizards have suffered from their murderous hands."

If you know about the witchcraft of the tribesmen, you will have only friends and enemies.

For the tribal wizards, living on the Star Embers Island is equivalent to living in seclusion from the world, and their biggest enemy is the Holy Church 3000 years ago.

But now that so much time has passed, it is unlikely that such a conflict will occur between the two sides.

Moreover, according to the nature of the Holy Church, if they wanted to obtain the inheritance of tribal witchcraft, they would definitely send a large army of priests to invade directly and would not do it in a sneaky way at all.

After all, the other party is the top wizarding force in the current magical world.

"No matter who they are, we have the High Priest's magic to protect us this time. We will definitely be able to eliminate the demon cubs that have come to the island."

As the most warlike wizard on Xingjin Island, Lang has long wanted to eliminate the thief who is eyeing the tribe's wizard inheritance in one fell swoop.

"That's right, the high priest's magic is definitely our trump card!"

"Yes, we must teach those devil cubs a lesson!"

Amid the shouting of the young wizards, Moon finally understood why the great wizard Hai Lan said yesterday that the hemostatic potion would prevent many deaths among the tribe.

It turns out that the tribesmen’s biggest enemy now is this group of thieves and magicians.

"Well, since they're interested, let's destroy all these stone carvings. And remember to block the news."

Moon is now the high priest of the tribe. Knowing that someone would covet his treasure, he would naturally find a way to cut off the claws reaching for his pocket.

"Yes, we still need to find a way to set up traps so that these demon cubs can't come back."

After hearing Moon's words, Great Wizard Hailan immediately understood the meaning.

Other young wizards echoed this.

"Also, I will cast an anti-theft spell on the tribe's treasury to prevent outsiders from sneaking in."

After discussing with the Great Wizard how to protect the treasure house, Moon returned to Starlight Island that same day.

He still needs Zalan's care for three minutes tonight before returning to Hogwarts.

Time goes back to three days ago, when Moon had just landed on Xingjin Island.

A black raven landed in a deserted stone fort in the wilds of the Isle of Orem.
