Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 150 Blackstone Tower
"Release commission."

Kakus widened his eyes in surprise, and his face was full of astonishment. However, as a smart person, he obviously knew what to ask and what not to ask. After a few seconds of silence, he restrained his surprise. , reappeared earnestly,

"Okay, no problem at all, Mr. Blaine!"

Kakus turned to the last page of the book, and a brand new quill floated from Kakus' pocket to his hand. After writing the word 'Golden Viper' heavily on the header, Kakus Stein looked up and asked
"What are your needs?"

"I hope someone can provide some accurate location or clues about the druidism and the sect's contemporary priests."

Amosta said lightly.

"Druid sect?"

Kakus' black pupils flickered, and he subconsciously expressed his doubts,

"These religious people don't have much to do with wizards. You... oh, the guys who wanted someone to help explore the magical ruins and were looking for you were druids?"

Amostar did not answer the question, but silence was also an answer.

"Uneven distribution of spoils?"

Relying on his friendship with the Golden Viper, Kakus asked cautiously.

"Does it have to be so detailed, Foley?" Amosta's tone became dangerous.

"Oh, I'm sorry, of course it's not like this—" Kakus laughed a few times, "Okay. Find out about the activities of Druidism and contemporary priests, um. Then, Mr. Blaine, when will the mission cycle last? , how much are you going to pay for the reward?"

"The mission cycle is considered on a one-year basis, and it will be automatically voided when it expires. Of course, within one year, if I meet those guys first, I will write to you to cancel the commission, and the reward will be paid."

Amosta fell into hesitation. When he returned to the orphanage last time, he left most of the money. Now, he only has a mere 2000 Galleons.

To be honest, this task is not as easy as imagined.

Wizards live in a relatively independent magical world, and religious forces like the Holy See have a closer relationship with the Muggle world. The two do not communicate with each other. It is really difficult to find the Druids that may appear in various parts of the world. .

"If someone can find a member of the Druid sect, I will pay you five hundred gold galleons. If there is a clue to the location of the sect priest, I will pay you two thousand gold galleons."

"Two thousand gold Galleons? This is not a small amount!" Kakus immediately became elated, grabbed the quill pen and scribbled on the paper, writing down Amosta's request verbatim, Then, he scratched his cheek in embarrassment,
"Sorry, Mr. Blaine, my rule is that if you release a mission, you must first pay half of the reward and put it with me as a guarantee."

Amosta's face darkened immediately, and he reluctantly took out the money bag from his robe. He has always made money from Cacus Foley, and this is the first time he has paid him !

"Curious about that?"

"Oh, your business is over, Professor Blaine?"

Harry, who had been patted on the shoulder suddenly, came back to his senses. He stared back at the strange dark tower that almost merged with the cave. After subconsciously opening his mouth, he nodded hesitantly.

"I don't quite understand, Professor, how could a wizard build a tower underground, and what is it used for?"

"I can show you around, Potter, that's the 'place of interest' here!"

Amosta, who suddenly became 'poor', put his arm around Harry's shoulder eagerly and said.

It is located at the innermost corner of the fan-shaped karst cave, where the shrinking rock walls on both sides meet, making the space very narrow. Therefore, except for some foreign wizards who have never been to the underground world, they will come to admire this mysterious tower. Also, 'natives' generally don't appear here.

Accompanied by Professor Brian, Harry came to the black tower.

The surface of the black stones used to build the tower is very rough, and it looks like it has been around for a long time, and the shape of the tower is a bit like the spire of the tower of Hogwarts Castle, but the shape is much older.

"No one knows when this tower was built. People only know that this tower has stood here since this cave far away from the ground has been infested."

Harry's palm brushed against the cold stone surface, and a mysterious breath welled up in his heart.

"Then people know who it is." Halfway through the question, Harry realized what Professor Bryan said on the ground, "Merlin?"

Harry didn't have any special feelings about Merlin, a wizard who lived so many years ago. The only things he knew about Merlin were the 'Merlin Medal' and 'Merlin's Beard'. Oh, and the 'Merlin's Commemorative Coin' that Professor Blaine gave Ron.

When he first entered the underground world, Amosta was full of curiosity about this black stone tower like all the 'newcomers', and like all the wizards who entered here for thousands of years, he tried to blast it away with magic spells. Even though he tried to pass this tower, but no matter how he tried, this mysterious black tower was still not damaged at all, and not even a little stone dross fell out.

"You guessed it right, Potter—"

Amosta took a few steps back and calmly stared at the spire soaring into the dome. Originally, he had lost interest in this tower, but after the trip to Avalon Island, he rekindled his curiosity about it Heart,

"For a long time, there has always been a certain rumor circulating here. People believe that this high tower is the cemetery where Merlin buried himself for the last time. Moreover, Merlin left unimaginable treasures in his cemetery. If you get these treasures, you can have Comparable to the power of the gods in mythology."

"The power of the gods, didn't the wizards here try to open it?"

Harry scoffed at this statement. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the pet market with disgust in his eyes. He raised his voice and asked. For some reason, he suddenly remembered the Slytherin's secret room in the school.

"Look at your feet, Potter—"

Amosta smiled and pointed at the potholed ground, "These are the traces left by those who tried to open the tower with a spell. Unfortunately, no one has succeeded in shaking this tower."

The 'no one' in Professor Bryan's words obviously included himself, even a wizard like him couldn't do anything about this cold black tower, which made Harry a little more curious about this tower, just as he was studying When I heard the long and narrow hole on the dark tower door that was much larger than the normal keyhole, I heard Professor Brian say again,
"...Among all the things rumored about Merlin, this tower is the one with the highest authenticity. Since many years ago, the Ministry of Magic's Department of Mysteries has been trying its best to get this tower back to the Ministry as a precious cultural relic Protect it, but unfortunately, they tried all kinds of methods, but they couldn't move the Blackstone Tower by even an inch, so they had no choice but to give up this plan in the end."
