247.【Scepter】
Ms. Gray called this metal rod [Scepter], and her eyes looked hot as if she was looking at the most precious thing in the world.
"But this is not what I want." Lynn didn't care how precious Ms. Gray was, he only knew that it wasn't what he wanted to find.
"Not what you want!" She raised her tone, and her voice even became a little sharp.
But she soon realized that since Lynn got this thing, his current identity cannot be the same as before.
Ms. Gray tried her best to calm her emotions and asked in a calm tone: "What else do you want with it?"
Lynn frowned, and under Ms. Gray's reluctance to look, he closed the book and put it back into his pocket.
"I told you that I'm going to find a place in Hogwarts where the goblins once built."
"That [scepter] was created by a fairy, and there was more than one fairy. I remember that all the famous forging masters came to Hogwarts."
"But this is one thing, I want to find a place, or to be precise, the entrance to a cellar." Lynn could only tell Ms. Gray what he was looking for in full.
"You mean, you're looking for an entrance to an underground cellar in Hogwarts, built by a goblin?" Ms. Gray finally figured out what Lynn was looking for.
"Yes, that's right." Lynn stared at her, still having some expectations.
But Ms. Gray responded to him only to shake his head.
"impossible."
"What's impossible?"
"It is impossible for Hogwarts to have such a place," Ms. Gray said with certainty. "The goblins only came to this castle when Hogwarts was just building school, and have never been stepped on by any goblins since then, let alone any cellar entrances have been built in the castle."
Lynn's eyebrows were huddled in a clump: "Are you sure?"
"I have never left this castle since the establishment of Hogwarts. It is not a small matter for the fairy to build an entrance here, of course I cannot not know, but I have never heard of it."
He never expected this to be the result.
Ms. Gray had no need to lie to him about this matter. She said she didn't know that, then she really didn't know.
Either the news provided by Daniel's mother-in-law was wrong, or the fairies used some means to secretly build the entrance in the castle without anyone discovering it.
No matter which of these two situations, it means that Lynn's clues to finding the hiding place of the snake monster have been completely cut off.
So, in this way, would it be a good thing if he accidentally got the magic book with the Hogwarts school badge printed on it?
Since Lynn can't find the entrance for the time being, he doesn't have too much trouble. At worst, after the time returns to his position, he will tell Dumbledore about this matter in its original form, giving Dumbledore a headache. He has been busy for so long, so he should let Old Deng work hard.
"Well, have the goblins been to the Hogwarts construction entrance for the time being. Can you tell me now about the metal rod I got, which is what the [scepter] in your mouth is?"
Ms. Gray's mood is actually a bit complicated now, and she realized that what Lynn was originally looking for was not this at all, and it was entirely because of coincidence that he got it.
She took a deep breath of air that did not exist and told Lynn about the origin of this magic book and the [scepter] inside.
“This book was written by my mother and her two friends, Hufflepuff and Gryffindor.”
This was not beyond Lynn's expectations. The three spells recorded in the book are indeed in line with the personalities of these three founders.
"That was after Slytherin left, and Hogwarts slowly got into the regularity since he was first established, but the three wizards who remained in the school were gradually getting older. They did not master the magic of immortality, and sooner or later they would embark on another new journey of death.
But they couldn't argue about how the school gave it to whom. Everyone believed that the principal of Hogwarts in the future would be recognized by the four of them, including Salazar Slytherin, who had already left. Although they had broken up, the school was built together.
They did not want a mediocre person to destroy Hogwarts in the future, allowing the little wizard's stable harbor to disappear and re-enter the dark age of the wizard. So they agreed that no matter who wants to serve as the principal in the future, the real control of this castle must be recognized by the four of them. Even if only one of them disagrees, then this person will not be recognized.
Gryffindor found all the famous forging masters at that time, including the fairies who helped him build his sword; Hufflepuff searched for her inventory and found the materials he was most proud of; Ravenclaw searched for various magic patterns, ready to keep them all in the world.
They want to create a symbol, a symbol that can represent the authority of Hogwarts.
So [Scepter] came into being, which almost represented the highest attainment of alchemy at that time. Those who owned it meant that he had won the recognition of the four giants, and was the real owner of the castle of Hogwarts."
"The four giants? There are only three who can create [Scepter]." Lin En listened carefully and asked a question. He seemed to have obtained something amazing.
"Yes, if you want to drive [Scepter], you must be recognized by the Big Four, but there are only three participants in creating it. My mother and the others also tried to find the runaway Slytherin and let him come back to participate in the ceremony of the successor, but no one knew where he went, and no one could find him. Until Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw died one by one, Slytherin had never come back.
The last person to die was Gryffindor, who died in 1050. Before his death, the [Scepter] had been hidden. The three founders also left behind the relics they used to consider the heirs. However, because of the lack of Slytherin, the planned heir ceremony was not complete. You can find it according to the recognition of these three, but it cannot be used."
Lynn followed her words and understood this long-standing story.
"So because this [Scepter] could not play its due role, the heir ceremony was interrupted, and the principals who succeeded to the throne did not need to be recognized by the four giants at all."
"It is not as simple as you think that being the principal of Hogwarts, even if there is no successor, the castle will choose the right person, such as the current principal Albus Dumbledore.
He is now the real master of this school, regardless of whether he has the position of principal in name or not.”
