In the next few days, Ryan visited a lot of places, and he had to admit that the Floo Network did have its convenience. It allowed Ryan to travel to many places and feast his eyes on it.
Whether it is the colorful wooden houses of local residents that appear more beautiful under the sunlight, as if added with a layer of filters, or the snow-capped glaciers, or even the sparkling light reflected from the ice floes brought down from the glaciers in the river.
.These scenery bring an excellent travel experience to Lane.
At the attraction on the magic side, he visited and fed the Kraken, lamenting that these monsters might be bigger than the giant squid at Hogwarts, and also admired the endangered animal Silencer in the reserve.
Naturally, Ryan took a lot of photos. He selected a few of them and asked the photo studio to make them into postcards and sent them to his friends through the Northern Owl Post Office on Saga Street.
As a result, he received a lot of letters from owls the next day. Some of his roommates expressed envy, and some of the Weasley twins asked Ryan to purchase some magical ingredients unique to Iceland (because Ryan had read many and miscellaneous books,
Once when the Weasley twins were discussing a question that Ryan had read, Ryan answered it smoothly. After that, a friendship was slowly established).
However, in Ron and Hermione's letters, in addition to the postcard thanking Ryan, they all mentioned that they had not received any reply from Harry, so they felt a little nervous.
Ryan did not see a reply from Harry in this batch of replies. He estimated that his letter, like Hermione and Ron's, was intercepted by the house elf Dobby. So Ryan wrote to tell Hermione and the others that Harry's safety has always been
If Professor Dumbledore is paying attention, there won't be any big problem. But if you still don't hear back, you can go to Harry's house and have a look.
Time passed slowly during this leisurely tour, and this environment gave people a sense of relaxation that they had never felt anywhere else. At least Ryan felt that the fatigue caused by his parents' work seemed to be reduced a lot.
One day, Ryan was looking around on the streets of Reykjavik, preparing to visit a museum. Suddenly, an oil painting attracted him.
This oil painting belongs to an oil painter who sells paintings on the street. The skill of the painting is very ordinary, but the mountains in the painting are almost the same as the mountains on the treasure map that I got.
So he walked up to the painter and asked: "Sir, where is this painting from? I have been traveling here for several days, but I have never seen the mountains in this painting."
The painter put down the pen in his hand and said: "This is a scene I saw when I was hiking at Askja Volcano a few years ago. The weather was very sunny that day. I and a few companions were going to Lake Viti to experience the geothermal lake swimming.
The pleasure. But halfway through, the sky suddenly changed."
Speaking of this, the painter shuddered as if he remembered something terrible, and then continued: "The wind was blowing very hard at the time, and we were worried about the car being blown away while sitting in the car. Half an hour later, the wind stopped, and I
I saw a group of devil-like peaks emerging from the previously empty ice cap. They appeared in front of me and then disappeared within a minute."
"Later I asked nearby residents, and they told me it was called Devil's Mountain. Legend has it that the place is where the devil lives. Most of the time, it hides in hell, and only comes to the human world under rare circumstances."
Ryan thought thoughtfully after listening to the painter's words: Most of the time he is invisible, and he is only discovered occasionally. This is quite consistent with what happens when wizards use magic to cover certain places. If some concealment is used
If the magic circle is not maintained, it will indeed malfunction occasionally over time.
It seemed that a thorough investigation was needed first. After bidding farewell to the painter, Ryan found a secluded place, took out the cosmetics he had bought before, and put makeup on his face, pretending to be a Native American (all of them were yellow,
It can barely be disguised. This is something brought in the Assassin's inheritance). Then go to Sakya Street to inquire about the news.
Lane disguised himself as an aboriginal wizard traveling from the Americas, spoke English with a Caribbean Spanish accent, and inquired about the matter from the shop owners, and soon got results.
That place is a natural magic point, so it forms a magic barrier to prevent others from discovering it. Wizards only discovered this place more than thirty years ago. However, the wizards who explored before found only one person in that place.
Abandoned altar, nothing else.
Later, many wizards visited that place to study it, but unfortunately they never heard of anything being discovered.
So basically no wizards go there to visit now. But if you want to go there, it’s not difficult. You can use the floo network to go to the Alpine Troll Sanctuary on Vatnajökull, then rent a broom and fly there in about ten minutes.
After collecting all this information, Ryan felt extremely distressed. He thought he had found a great treasure location, but he found out that the place had been discovered by others a long time ago and even turned into a tourist spot. It was still an unpopular place because it had no special features.
It made him feel a deep sense of loss.
But the most important thing in doing things is to have a beginning and an end. Now that you have found your goal, it would be a pity not to take a look.
After finishing his homework early the next morning (a hard-working student party), Ryan packed up his things and headed to the Devil's Mountain Altar.
After spinning in the fireplace of the Floo network for dozens of seconds, Ryan appeared in a small house hidden by magic. There was a notice posted on the wall of the house: If you want to take a dip in Lake Viti, please change your clothes here.
Muggle clothes.
There was a counter not far from the fireplace, where a middle-aged wizard in his 50s was dozing.
Ryan went over and woke him up: "I'm going to visit the Devil's Mountain Altar. Can you rent brooms here?"
"Oh, another young man who was deceived by the treasure legend. Unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer people like you now." The middle-aged wizard said while rubbing his sleepy eyes. "The rent is 12 Sickles a day, and the deposit is five Galleons.
." After saying that, he took a broom that looked pretty good and put it on the counter.
After Ryan paid the money, he spent another 3 Sickles to rent a robe with heating function and a pair of goggles. After all, it was very cold flying in the sky, and he had been busy learning the stun spell and some combat-related spells before.
I didn’t have time to learn life spells such as the Warming Charm on my own.
This place is not far from the Devil's Mountain Altar, and you can even see several strangely shaped peaks that look like devils from a distance.
Ryan rode his flying broomstick and flew there in only ten minutes. This was because the broomstick was relatively old and Ryan's driving skills were a bit questionable. If Harry rode his Nimbus Two Thousand, it might take him five minutes to get there.
.
After lowering the broom, Ryan found that the broom was parked at the beginning of a small gravel road. He put down the broom and followed the direction indicated by the sign on the roadside and followed the gravel road toward the altar.
