Standing in the dark cellar of Slytherin, Rolf looked at the sword in Queen Groth's hand. For a moment, he had the idea of "purchasing it for zero dollars".
However, the young man quickly gave up this idea.
Gros is the queen in name, but actually manages the entire country. No wizard dares to resist her.
Even the dark wizard Livias, who was once as famous as Arcus, honestly served as a prime minister under her... Is it okay without strong strength?
With this thought in his mind, Luofu's eyes suddenly became clear. He continued to listen to Queen Gros talking about swords and armor for a while, and then took Shirley and Nelisi to leave.
However, it was already dinner time, and Queen Grosz repeatedly asked to stay. The three of them could not refuse, so they agreed.
Queen Gros took them to a small garden, which was located at the highest point of the palace and was covered with roses, lavender and mint, exuding a pleasant fragrance.
In the center of the garden, there is a tall tree standing.
It was a leafy olive tree with a trunk diameter of five or six meters. The dark bark had completely turned black, and the leaves emitted a full green light, making the entire garden bright.
Luo Fu and Shirley couldn't help but look at each other.
They had seen exactly the same olive tree... on the small island in the middle of the lake in Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets, but it was not as tall as the tree in front of them.
You know, Ravenclaw's olive tree has a history of a thousand years, so isn't the age of the tree in front of you even more terrifying?
The young man looked up at the olive tree. He thought deeply for a moment and asked, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally:
"I heard from Livias that the trees, fruits or leaves growing in Avalon have special effects. What is the effect of this olive tree?"
Rolf was really curious about this. He asked Skull Egg and checked the books in Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets, but he didn't get the answer.
"The fruit produced by the olive tree can greatly improve wisdom." Queen Los replied.
"Similar to a brain-refreshing drug?" Nelisi interjected.
"Brain-refreshing agent?" Queen Gros smiled slightly and said, "The effect is much more powerful than that."
"If brain-boosting pills can make a person a little smarter, olive fruit can make a person a truly unparalleled genius."
Rolf raised his eyebrows slightly and asked curiously: "How does the olive fruit compare with the crown that Ravenclaw took away from the Tower of Babel?"
Both can enhance wisdom, and he was curious which one was more effective.
"Of course there is no comparison." Queen Gros said softly:
"The crown can improve wizards in all aspects, whether it is intelligence, memory, insight, or creativity, it will be enhanced to the extreme.
Moreover, the medicinal effect of olive fruit is time-limited, but the crown is different."
Rolf rolled his eyes and thought: "Even so, the olive fruit can be regarded as a cheap substitute for the crown."
He was secretly happy, after all, there was an olive tree in Ravenclaw's tomb.
Shirley raised her head and observed the olive tree carefully. She suddenly said in surprise: "Has a branch been cut off from this tree?"
After hearing this, Luofu and Nellishi both looked up and soon saw a smooth gap the size of a fist on the trunk of the olive tree.
It's just that the gap is black in color. It's obvious that it wasn't cut off recently, but was cut off quite a few years ago.
"You are so careful in your observation." Queen Gros stared at Shirley and said, "A thief once came here and secretly chopped off a section of the tree trunk."
Luo Fu's heart skipped a beat when a figure suddenly appeared, but he still asked without giving up: "Who is that person?"
Queen Gros sneered: "Rowner Ravenclaw!"
"..."
Although Rolf had already guessed it, he was still speechless when he heard Ravenclaw's name.
Co-author... The olive tree in the secret room was grown from branches stolen by Ravenclaw?
Coupled with the diadem and the golden apple tree from Scylla... Ravenclaw is still a thief!
In the past, Rowena Ravenclaw's image in Rolf's heart, not to mention the level of a goddess, was definitely an existence that could only be viewed from a distance and not played with.
I am really disillusioned now!
A few people chatted for a while, and the Veela began to bring lunch.
The meal was very sumptuous, but most of the food was unknown to the well-informed Luo Fe!
He poked a roasted hare with antlers and wings with his fork and hesitated: "Isn't this a jackalope?"
"That's right." Queen Gros picked up a piece of roasted and crispy meat, dipped it in plum sauce, brought it to her mouth, and said with a smile:
"This dish is marinated in cinnamon and cloves, then drizzled with honey, and then baked with a unique Avalon chili pepper, which is both sweet and spicy."
"What is the Jackalope?" Nellie asked doubtfully.
"A magical creature with wings and antlers."
Shirley used a dagger to cut open a deer and rabbit leg, cut it into three parts, and gave them to Luo Fu and Nellie. She kept one piece for herself and whispered at the same time:
"They have been extinct for almost fifteen hundred years."
"..."
"It's extinct in your place, but the jackalope has become overrun in Avalon." Queen Gros said lazily, "So don't worry, just eat it."
After hearing this, Luo Fu thought that he must catch a few and take them back. Then he picked up the deer and rabbit in the bowl and took a bite. As expected, it was as sweet and spicy as Gross said, and the taste was endless.
After eating the jackalope, Nelisi looked at a dragon egg and said, "What kind of dragon egg is this?"
"Wye Wyvern." Queen Gros said, holding a small hammer and cracking the eggshell into pieces.
The dragon egg liquid has been steamed until it solidifies, and looks like milky white cream.
Luofu picked up his spoon and took a spoonful. He took a bite of the egg white and felt a chill spreading in his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the coolness turned into heat, like several fire snakes snaking down the throat and passing through the chest.
The young man's eyes suddenly opened wide and his face turned red.
Shirley asked softly: "How does it taste?"
Luo Fu was speechless for a moment, so he handed over his spoon. Shirley took the boy's spoon and lowered her head to take a sip. Her face quickly turned red, like the morning glow.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After a while, the ponytail girl took a breath and exclaimed:
"It's cold and hot...it tastes a bit like Honeydukes' Fire Peppermint Cream Cake. It's so delicious!"
Gross smiled, picked up the carved gold jug, and poured dark red wine into four silver wine glasses.
She took the wine glass, closed her eyes and sniffed intoxicatedly, then slowly opened her eyes, looked at the three of them, and said with a smile:
"Try this wine again... made from the grapes of Avalon Island. After eating those grapes, you can have a sweet dream when you go to sleep.
The wine produced also retains this wonderful characteristic.”
Luofu picked up the cup and took a sip. An elegant aroma bloomed in his mouth, like flowers under the bright sun.
At this time, the Veela brought a covered plate and put it on the table. After she opened it, the aroma immediately overflowed, making people's fingers lick their fingers.
Rolph stared at the food on the plate. It looked like half a honey-glazed roast chicken. He cut off a piece of meat with his knife and put it in his mouth to chew, but something didn't feel right.
The meat is extremely delicious, and it also has the fragrance of sycamore leaves, which is more delicious than any other spices... How could it be chicken?!
Rolf suddenly remembered what Hufflepuff had said to him when they were reviewing the magical food. He said in astonishment:
"This is...Phoenix?"
Shirley and Nelisi looked at each other, both staring at Luo Fu in disbelief.
Phoenix is an extremely mysterious, powerful and noble creature in the magical world, but it has become a meal in Avalon?
"It is indeed phoenix meat." Queen Gros raised her wine glass and said while drinking:
"Don't be surprised. In ancient times, phoenixes were poultry used by ancient wizards for food. They are no different from chickens, ducks and geese. I have a group of phoenixes in my back garden."
"..."
Luofu sighed softly. He and Fox had been good friends for many years, so how could he bear to eat its own kind?
So... with tears in his eyes, he added a phoenix wing and stuffed it into his mouth.
