The Years Welding at Hogwarts

Looking at the dilapidated city cluster from a high altitude, it doesn’t seem that far away.

But in fact, Noah, who was flying close to the ground at an extremely fast speed, flew for nearly twenty minutes before the city rising little by little on the horizon gradually enlarged in his eyes..

Although most of them had been buried by thousands of years of wind and sand, Noah could still see some broken viaducts among the buildings that had collapsed due to age.

The sections of collapsed road were eight lanes wide, but now only bridge piers are left poking out from the sand. Occasionally, you can see a few broken lanes that are relatively well preserved on the bridge piers. They are like isolated islands in a sea of sand.

After restraining the fluctuations in his body and suppressing his sense of existence to a minimum, Noah walked leisurely in the sandstorm.

His eyes swept over the vehicles covered with a thick layer of dust on the road. Judging from the vehicles that were more technological than modern cars, as well as the tall buildings that had stood here for hundreds of years, it was obvious that this Before the city was destroyed, the level of civilization it was in was no lower than that of the earth in the twenty-first century.

Snap, snap.

Apart from the whistling sound of dust passing between the buildings blown by the strong wind, the only sound of Noah’s footsteps was heard in this completely silent city.

Slowly walking to one of the cars parked on the road, Noah stretched out his hand and brushed away the dust covering it. What immediately caught his eye were the three skeletons in the car.

Two adults and one child, they are obviously a family.

The preservation is extremely good, and the posture is not distorted.

Judging from the current appearance of the car, the family of three in the car must have been instantly killed by some extremely powerful being, causing the vehicle to lose control and hit the guardrail on the roadside.

Not only this car, but all the traffic vehicles on this section of the road, which was about a hundred meters long, were probably in the same situation. All the traffic vehicles on the entire section of the road were smashed into a mess, just like a large car accident. on site.

The skeletons in the car…

Noah’s eyes stayed for a while on some obvious features on these three skeletons.

Based on the partial anatomy knowledge he acquired while studying Transfiguration, he was able to tell that the three skeletons in the car were all pure human beings just from the moment he saw the skulls.

Combining the styling design of this car, the architectural style not far away, and the most important atmospheric environment feature, it is not difficult to infer that the planet where this dilapidated city is located is still the earth.

It’s just that this is not the earth that Noah is familiar with, but a special existence in Marvel’s infinite multiverse.

A big question before Noah now is whether the world has completely become as dead as the city where Noah is now, or is this city just an isolated example?

Glancing in the distance, Noah saw a building that had been cut in half, with the upper part leaning against another building next to it.

That appearance obviously did not gradually become like this due to the natural erosion of time, but was a trace left by some extremely powerful being who once fought here.

Coupled with the shattered satellite in the sky…

Noah’s guess is more inclined to the latter, that is – the whole world is as dead as this city, and there is no life except it. existence of things.

There may be a few survivors who are lucky enough to survive in this lost world, but judging from the thickness of the sand layer covering the city, we can deduce how long it has been since the crisis that destroyed the world broke out.

Even if there are a few lucky ones who are lucky enough to survive, they should be extinct in at least a thousand years.

Or after losing the protection of civilization, the memory of the past glory was gradually lost in the inheritance from generation to generation, and slowly degenerated into the primitive era of eating hair and drinking blood, or a barbaric and cruel slave society.

Noah stared blankly at the sand stained on his palms, and it took a long time for Noah to come back to his senses bit by bit.

When Noah was wiped out by the power of the six Infinity Stones, and then regained his life under the power of the six Infinity Stones, he immediately set foot on the battlefield of the Endgame and experienced that cruel and brutal battle. Magnificent war.

He thought that after experiencing so much, nothing else in the world could shake his soul so much.

But when such a completely dead planet appeared so intuitively in front of his eyes, Noah couldn’t help but feel absent-minded.

Everything he looked at was desolate. Walking on the surface of this lonely planet, he was already the last living creature in this entire world. The boundless feeling of desolation almost engulfed Noah.

It may be due to sympathy for those dead compatriots, or it may be due to the sense of despair that this lifeless planet is suspended alone in this dark and cold universe.

An oncoming shock and panic hit Noah head-on like a wave. It was not until a long time later that Noah gradually came to his senses and took steps again to restart his exploration of the loneliness of this dead star. journey.

No longer restraining his magic power fluctuations, Noah exploded almost all of his magic power, like a torch rising into the sky in the cold dark night.

Although making such a move before finding out what the world is like is no less dangerous than lighting a bonfire in a dark forest surrounded by hunters.

But Noah no longer wants to worry about that much.

Spreading the burst of magic power as far away as possible to sense everything on the surface, Noah tried his best to search for any possible signs of life or activity on the ground.

The fast-flying Noah was like a living reconnaissance aircraft with extremely powerful reconnaissance capabilities. In just ten minutes, he had explored a large area of the city, half of which was buried under the wind and sand..

But even if Noah’s perception range reached five kilometers of light, with only subsonic flight speed, the area explored in just ten minutes was smaller than the entire city and the surrounding satellite cities. It’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Slowly landing on a building that was still standing firmly in the center of the city, Noah looked at the gradually tilting moon in the night sky and sighed quietly.

He also knew that this kind of exploration actually had no real meaning, it was just some useless actions he made to vent the emotions accumulated in his heart.

His emotions were released, so he should…

A little golden spark splashed out in the void beside Noah, but the golden spark that should have been connected end to end to form a circle only jumped for a moment before going out again.

This was not because the space around Noah was blocked, which caused the portal magic to fail, but the vision that appeared on the distant horizon completely attracted his attention, so that he had pre-locked the purpose of the teleportation in his mind. The ground was completely reduced to ashes.

The blue light pierced the dark night like a sharp sword, and also tore up the wind and sand floating in the sky. It shone on the distant horizon like a soaring beam of light produced when the planetary engine was turned on at full power.

The vast energy spreading in the distance made Noah’s eyesight suddenly light up as he had lost hope of finding survivors. Of course, it also made his lax vigilance peak at this moment.

There is no longer any need to disguise. When this unknown existence no longer conceals itself and releases such a signal to itself, the two hunters who were originally hiding in the dark know the general location of the other.

The blazing phoenix flames condensed into a pair of gorgeous flame wings behind Noah. The flapping wings picked up the roaring wind, pushing Noah’s body into the air like a cannonball.

The ultra-fast speed caused the air in front of Noah to undergo extreme squeezing and turn into a shield-like barrier.

Accompanied by a huge explosion caused by a certain limit being breached, a milky white straight line in the sky extended straight towards the huge light pillar rising into the sky in the distance.

The sky illuminated by the light beam was no longer as dark as before, but it still looked gray due to the dust floating in the sky.

In the haze where he couldn’t see clearly, Noah saw the mountains on the distant horizon.

As the distance gradually got closer, Noah could clearly see a towering castle with a slightly decayed appearance on one of the towering mountains among the mountains.

The beam of light rising into the sky was emanating from a tower at the highest point of the decaying castle.

“This is……”

Familiar mountains, familiar castle.

But the place where there should have been a large lake now revealed a dry lake bed, and the soil that had not been moistened by a drop of water for thousands of years showed an irregular cracking state.

Cutting off the continuous output of magic power, the phoenix fire wings behind Noah broke into small flames that scattered all over the sky and gradually extinguished in the air because they could not get the supply of magic power.

Landing on a flat piece of land outside the main entrance of the castle, Noah stepped closer to the extremely familiar castle in front of him, and there was an inexplicable color in his eyes as he looked at it.

Although it is protected by magic, after so many years of time erosion, the magic that maintains the castle’s splendor has long lost its effectiveness because it has not been properly maintained.

The entire Hogwarts Castle has never regained its original luxury and majesty.

The main entrance, which served as the castle’s facade, was left with only a dark hollow. The two heavy oak doors had long since turned into fly ash, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of dirt mixed with mud and sand, completely covering the original floor of the foyer.

Except for the ground, every corner of the foyer is unexpectedly… perhaps it cannot be described as”clean”, but there are no spider webs or other moss that could represent signs of biological activity. exist.

Nothing related to life has anything to do with this place. There are only various cold and dead inorganic substances.

The grand staircase in the center of the castle foyer had completely collapsed into disgrace.

Standing at the door of the auditorium and looking in, you can see that the huge windows that were originally inlaid with beautiful stained glass have been shattered into a series of huge holes that leak air.

The magic candles that had been burning quietly in mid-air in the auditorium in the past all fell powerlessly to the ground or the table, covered by thick dust.

Every corner of the castle reveals a sense of dilapidation and desolation, as if it were an ancient historical relic buried deep underground for thousands of years.

Going up the large staircase located in the middle of the castle foyer, you can see that the moving magic stairs specially set up by Ravenclaw no longer move, and have even declined dozens of meters below because they have lost their magic power. On the ground, it shattered into some weird-shaped building debris.

Arriving on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle, Noah finally stopped in front of the oak door guarded by an ugly stone statue.

The protective magic solidified on the broken door panel has lost its effectiveness, which makes the wooden door only ajar but not completely closed.

There was no magic movement. When Noah came to the wooden door leading to the principal’s office along the spiral staircase that had stopped working, the ajar wooden door opened automatically.���It rotated silently and opened.

Behind the wooden door, an old figure was revealed.

Although two different worlds, two different Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

However, the principal’s offices of both schools have the same layout.

The blue light beam shot into the sky from the astronomy tower of the castle, but the light escaping from it was so dazzling that it was almost white because of the extremely close distance. The window of the principal’s office was divided into several channels of different shapes by the window frame. long and narrow beam of light.

The beam of light reflected countless fine dust suspended in the air like little stars dancing in the air, and also illuminated the figure standing in front of the window.

The light hit the other party, casting a very long shadow behind him.

A word that sounded as low as a whisper suddenly sounded in Noah’s ears,”This is really surprising.”

“I was also surprised.”

His eyes were firmly fixed on the silver sword hanging on the opponent’s waist. Although he couldn’t see it clearly because of the light, Noah could still tell it at a glance – it was Godric. ·Gryffindor’s Sword

“To meet Godric Gryffindor, one of the founders of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in such a strange world and in such a form.”
