The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

As he walked, for some reason, he started running.

"What's wrong?" Savannah asked.

"do not know."

Scott himself didn't know why.

But he decided to follow his heart.

He ran faster and faster, and then transformed into a peregrine falcon, taking flight at top speed.

Behind him, Savannah also transformed into an eagle.

Flying at full speed, they quickly arrived in front of the pure white tower.

The tower had only one entrance at the bottom, with no doors or windows above it. Scott landed at the entrance and transformed back into human form.

Savannah followed closely behind.

"That is?"

Scott saw another pure white tombstone located on one side of the tower.

And there's that familiar, bright silver knight's lance stuck in front of the tombstone.

He didn't rush into the tower, but instead walked to the tombstone.

The pristine tombstone bears only one line of text—

[The eternal king Arthur rests here]

"This knight's lance..."

Savannah was somewhat surprised.

"What exactly happened? Where is Mordred?"

Scott also looked at the knight's lance.

At this moment, the gun seemed to have been completely purified by some kind of force, and even Savannah could not smell the blood.

He shook his head and looked at the white tower.

"The only answer is to go into the tower."

With that, he bowed to the tombstone and turned to walk toward the white tower.

Savannah also bowed and followed in his footsteps.

There was no door at the entrance to the base of the tower, so Scott and Savannah walked straight into the tower.

The first thing that catches the eye is a bronze color.

Click... Click...

Amidst the sounds of countless mechanisms operating, Scott stared in astonishment at the enormous magical device before him.

Countless copper-colored ring-shaped metals are constantly rotating at different speeds and in different directions, while at the center of the magical device, a huge copper-colored metal eye is suspended.

"This is the Eye of a Thousand Miles."

Medea's voice came from upstairs.

Scott looked in the direction of the sound and saw Medea standing at the entrance to the next level, looking down at them.

"You're not surprised at all; you really do know a lot."

Medea was clearly observing Scott's reaction.

Scott remained noncommittal.

"Can this thing still see the future?" he asked.

“No,” Medea said. “Its energy is exhausted.”

With that, she turned and walked into the entrance to the next level.

Scott smiled as he watched Medea's figure disappear.

"Should we go up?" Savannah asked.

“No.” Scott raised an eyebrow. “Let’s go outside.”

Savannah didn't ask why, she just turned around and followed him out of the white tower.

Even after leaving the tower, they did not stop, but walked further and further away.

Finally, they stood in the boundless sea of ​​flowers, gazing at the white tower in the distance.

“This is a little different from what I expected,” Scott said. “But that’s okay, let’s just wait and see.”

Savannah nodded.

She raised her long wooden staff and slammed it on the ground. Several thick, green vines sprouted from the ground and quickly formed a set of simple yet elegant table and chairs.

"Please sit down."

She said with a smile.

"it is good."

Scott laughed too.

The two sat down in the chairs, and Scott took out a bunch of snacks and drinks.

"Really."

A figure appeared silently and sat in the empty seat.

Aren't you curious?

Merlin still has that anime-style appearance.

He sat there lazily, his elbows resting on the armrests of the chair, his hands supporting his chin, and a smile in his eyes.

Scott laughed and said, "Won't we find out soon enough?"

"Too."

Merlin blinked, then vanished before his eyes like a phantom.

It is worth noting that Savannah was completely unaware of his appearance and disappearance.

Scott and Savannah didn't have to wait long.

A short while later, Medea and Aaron emerged from the white tower.

A cloud of black mist followed behind them.

"Is that the boy?"

An aged voice came from the black mist.

"The person you speak of who does not exist."

“Yes,” Medea replied, “Father.”

The black mist swept through, accompanied by countless swirling petals, and soon arrived in front of Scott and Savannah.

Black mist intertwined, forming a somewhat illusory head in the air.

Bald, with a pointed snout and monkey-like cheeks, and a long beard.

It is exactly the same as the statue of Slytherin in the Chamber of Secrets at Hogwarts.

The head opened its pitch-black eyes.

He ignored Savannah and stared straight at Scott.

“I am Salazar Slytherin.”

"Since you are also a student of Hogwarts, you should stand up and bow to me."

He said it with a straight face.

"Feel sorry."

Scott remained unmoved, merely offering a perfunctory smile.

“I am a Ravenclaw student.”

"Royna's student?"

Slytherin narrowed his eyes.

"Still a Ravenclaw student?"

“Both,” Scott said.

He raised his hand, and a small blank picture frame flew up and hovered in the air.

Then, a beautiful figure appeared in the painting.

"Long time no see, Salazar."

After a thousand years, upon seeing his old friend again, now a cloud of black mist, Ravenclaw still wore a dignified and reserved smile.

Slytherin merely glanced at the portrait with disdain.

“If it were the real Rowena, I would definitely have a good chat with you, but I have no interest in communicating with a portrait.”

Hearing him say that, Ravenclaw in the painting did not get angry.

“I have no intention of communicating with you, Salazar,” she said calmly. “I am merely a witness.”

"Witness?"

Slytherin, however, struck up a conversation with her again, seemingly amused.

"I thought you were pleading with me on behalf of the students."

In the painting, Ravenclaw says, "No need, I trust my student."

Slytherin laughed.

"A student taught by a single portrait?"

He didn't seem to care much.
