When it comes to finding out how to open the door in the Time Hall, Jon actually has an alternative.
What can prevent that door from being opened must be a magic item.
As for Jon, as long as it is a magic item, he can use the second gem on the ring to absorb the magic in it, thus destroying the effect.
If it really comes to the point where there is really no other way, Jon can only try to absorb all the magic power from all the magic items in the entire Time Hall, destroy all their effects, and then open the unobtrusive door.
Door.
Of course, this can only be used as a solution. Neither Jon nor Slughorn wants to completely destroy the Time Hall, which has carried the British magical community's research on time magic for thousands of years, until the last resort.
So after Jon got the news about the Time Hall from Dandy, he immediately came to the room full of various clocks and hourglasses.
If we were to find one of the most suspicious things in this room, it would undoubtedly be those time turners that were damaged for no reason.
After Jon came to the Time Hall for the second time, he did not stop and went straight to the counter where all the damaged time turners were stored.
Those golden pocket watches were placed in a transparent glass cover, undefended and unlocked, and could be opened and obtained by anyone, as if someone took it home directly, nothing would happen.
Jon took out a time converter. He had already tried to move the hands on these pocket watches when he came last time, but they were indeed damaged and could no longer reveal any time.
magic.
But this time, Jon didn't make any more attempts. Instead, he directly selected one of them and used the universal curse removal on the ring to try to absorb the magic attached to the converter.
The result was that he succeeded.
The magic power on the Time Converter was not that powerful. After Jon absorbed it, he did not feel the magic power in the second gem being significantly enhanced.
Perhaps being able to absorb this means that the reason why these time turners cannot be used is not because the magic stored in them has failed, but because there are other more elusive problems.
At the same time, Jon had been paying attention to the inconspicuous door. After he absorbed the magic power from the time turner, the door did not respond at all. Jon tried once, but the door was still blocked.
It was blocked and was not opened because of this.
After verifying that the problem was not with the time turner, Jon changed the target and continued to try.
Just when he and Slughorn were preparing in the Department of Mysteries, Devonshire, England.
In the wilderness far away from the Muggle town, there is a manor that looks like a giant beast lying on the ground in the night, and tonight's banquet is being held lively.
The owner of this manor, whose surname is Carlo, is one of the most noble surnames in the British wizarding world. After the Witch Flat Line launched a war against Britain, those purebloods, especially the old-school purebloods whose surnames were included in the Holy Twenty-Eight Clan,
The whole family gathered in this manor.
Wu Pingxian put pressure on pure-blood sects, forcing them to gather together to prevent them from being defeated one by one.
The Carlo family's manor is the gathering place chosen by the old-school pureblood circle.
In fact, in some cases, these pure-blood wizards from the twenty-eight sacred families perform much better than those new pure-bloods in this kind of rule that is absolutely superior to pure blood.
They are all wizarding families with a long history. They have always had their own industries in the magical world. After Voldemort came to power, even if they gained more benefits, few people would have the mentality of a nouveau riche. And
Many of the new-school purebloods have the phenomenon of "poor and rich", and it is precisely because of this that they are always looked down upon by the old-school purebloods.
But even if these ancient wizard families are slightly stronger, their strength is limited.
In the Carlo Manor, they were obviously huddled together to keep warm under Wu Pingxian's coercive attack, but each of them still seemed to be on vacation. There was a small party for three days, and a big banquet for five days. It was said that every night
Shengxiao is not too much.
And just tonight, they were doing the same thing.
Not only did the Carlo family not think there was anything wrong with these foreign purebloods eating and drinking in their own home, in order to show their grandeur, they also invited the famous Weird Sisters band in the wizarding world to play music for the dinner today.
Just when the Carlo family manor was brightly lit, thousands of candles were fluttering in the night like stars, and the melodious violin and piano ensemble spread in the fields.
Looking down from a high altitude, surrounding this huge manor, there are countless figures in all directions hiding in the wheat fields bit by bit, approaching quietly!
Moody's breathing became slightly faster.
Of course it's not because of fear, but a kind of expectation called excitement!
His magical prosthetic eye kept turning, and at the same time he gave instructions to Tonks, who temporarily came to act as his assistant due to Lupin's injury.
"Tell Fidel's team that there are seven people in the northwest, and let him and Arthur's team turn around. Only then will the two of them have a chance to eat them all."
Tonks quickly wrote Moody's instructions on a piece of parchment, and then threw it casually on the ground. The piece of parchment turned into a gray mouse, scurrying very fast among the wheat fields.
Move and deliver the message to the person it should be delivered to.
"I'm already thinking about what food I should bring back to Remus after tonight's mission is over." Tonks muttered, saying something that made Moody frown.
"In the past, if you were an Auror under me and said something like this before the mission started, I would definitely expel you from the team and then copy the words 'I swear I will never talk casually again' to three hundred
all over."
Moody lectured her in a low voice, but then he couldn't help his gossip anymore.
"How long have you been together? I don't know."
Tonks, who pulled at her bubblegum pink hair, rolled her eyes.
"You are not my grandfather, do you need me to repay you for everything? Remus is a bad example of you. Although he is very masculine, he is always a bit incomprehensible and cares about his own identity.
"
In this regard, Moody did not argue with Tonks. He just remained silent for a while before speaking.
"Just resolve the obstacles among yourselves. I don't want to sit in a conference room in the future and have to endure the embarrassment between you two."
