The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 155 The Greedy Predator

"What is the beginning of eternity, the end of time and space, the beginning of every end?"

After the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker asked a question, it fell into silence again, as if waiting for the questioner to answer the question.

Albert frowned, and after repeating the riddle of the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker to himself, he complained, "I hate guessing riddles."

At the critical moment, he was actually blocked by a riddle, which made Albert feel uncomfortable.

Albert knew that he might not be able to guess the answer, at least not for the time being.

It is actually very simple to solve this level, as long as you understand all the riddles, the content of the questions asked by the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker will inevitably repeat.

After all, it is impossible for Ravenclaw students to be all bright and wise geniuses. They can answer the questions because they already know the answers from others.

Knowledge is for people to learn.

When someone can't answer the question raised by the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker, they can only wait for others to answer, so that they can learn what they don't know.

Students who are not Ravenclaws naturally have no chance to learn the answer to pass the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker from other senior students, and naturally cannot pass this simple barrier.

Even for a genius, it is not easy to get the answer immediately without being exposed to similar riddles.

Albert never considered himself a genius, so he didn't expect to be able to answer the question about the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker in the first place.

Could it be that I really want to use the Disillusionment spell, go to the entrance of the Ravenclaw common room, and eavesdrop on the riddles and answers of the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker?

How ridiculous!

Even if I get some riddles and answers from Ravenclaw students, the next time I come, the riddles will definitely be changed again.

"It's really nerve-wracking!" Albert said to himself.

He had temporarily given up answering the eagle-bronze knocker, unless it happened to ask about phoenixes and fire.

But the odds of that are slim.

Albert recorded the riddle and got up to leave the Room of Requirement.Anyway, I already know how to get in, so I can come back next time to answer the question about the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker.

After leaving the Room of Requirement, Albert went directly to the library.

"Where did you just go?" Fred looked up and asked, "I heard people say that you just stepped into the library with your front foot, and then turned and left with your back foot."

"Suddenly remembered something." Albert sat in the vacant seat occupied by Lee Jordan and Fred.

"What's the matter?" Fred asked again.

Albert took out his notebook and turned to the riddle page to show Fred.

"What?" Lee Jordan also brought his head closer, and was stunned after seeing the contents of the notebook.

"Riddle, can you guess the answer?" Albert asked several people.

"How free do you have to be!" Lee Jordan retracted his head and continued to bury himself in his vacation homework. Obviously, he couldn't guess what the answer was.

George also came over curiously, just glanced at it and went back to do his vacation homework.

This guy always likes to study those weird things.

The three of them lamented the pain of their roommates. If they had this kind of free time to think about the answers to the riddles, they might as well do a few more questions.

Albert didn't expect a few people to help him solve the problem, and began to read the content of the riddle carefully.

"What is the beginning of eternity? What is the end of time? What is the end of space? What is the beginning of every end?"

"There should be one thing in common between them."

Albert thought carefully and wrote down the information he had analyzed on the draft paper.

First of all, something like that has to be eternal, and related to time, space?
"time?"

If time is eternal, then the moment when time begins is the beginning of eternity, and the last moment of a period of time is the end of that period of time?
Is the beginning of each end?
If time is divided into a period of continuous time, then each end point is the beginning of another period of time?
But... what the hell is the end of space?

Could it be the four-dimensional space?

It has been speculated that the fourth dimension refers to time.

Well, it seems barely doable.

Make do with a ghost!

Albert didn't think this was the answer the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker wanted. He even doubted whether the wizard knew what the four-dimensional space was.

Even wizards far surpass Muggles in the study of time.

So... this is definitely not the right answer... which means...

"Maybe I have fallen into a misunderstanding?" Albert stared at the riddle.

"The answer here is not to replace something, but to refer to the commonality of eternity, time, space, and end."

What do eternity, time, space, and ends have in common?
Albert's fingers slid across the words of eternity, read it softly, and then froze.

eternal?
At this moment, Albert suddenly felt that he knew the answer to the riddle. The word for time is time, the word for space is place, and the word for end point is End.

So... the answer to the eagle-shaped bronze door is actually E?

Are British alphabet riddles common?
Albert looked at the e on the small book, and felt that this was more in line with the answer of the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker than the moment.

"It seems that I'm not too stupid, at least I guessed the answer."

"Are you mocking us on purpose?"

Hearing Albert's words, Fred couldn't help but rolled his eyes at him.

If you are still called stupid, then what are we?
Troll?

"Why don't you do your vacation homework?" Angelina couldn't help asking, looking away from the parchment.

"Albert is enjoying the joy of solving the riddle!" Lee Jordan asked sideways, "What's the answer?"

"The letter e."

"Where did you get the riddle?" Angelina glanced at the content of the riddle and muttered, "It doesn't seem too difficult."

"That's because you just heard the answer, so it's not difficult." Lee Jordan looked at Angelina speechlessly. He had just read the riddle and didn't think about it at all.

"You don't want to challenge Ravenclaw's eagle ring riddle, do you?" Aliya looked at Albert suspiciously, and continued, "It is said that a Ravenclaw student once challenged the eagle ring riddle and answered correctly There are about a hundred of them."

"That's a good idea." Albert nodded, "I'll try it some other day."

"I'm curious about how the Ravenclaw students will react when they find out." George looked up. "When you go, remember to call me."

"It would be nice to be able to answer a few?"

"We have faith in you," said Fred with George. "We believe you must be smarter than any Ravenclaw."

I don't even have confidence myself, where did you two get your confidence?
Albert glanced at the prompt on the task panel, and a new task appeared:
