A Magical Hogwarts - Vol 7 Chapter 21
Seeing the so-called temple altar, William was very disappointed.
On the bare ground, only a black stone tablet stood.
This is also normal. After thousands of years of wind and rain, the periphery of Karnak Temple has been evacuated.
Many internal areas, even with magical protection, were slowly cracked, and even the land was taken away.
It was quite a bit of a robbery of the temple, and even the gold powder on the Buddha’s body had to be scraped away.
William looked around and didn’t know what to crack here.
But the goblins quickly showed him the extraordinaryness of the black stone tablet.
They have successively used Muggle, wizard, and goblin measures to measure… No matter which standard, the ratio of the three sides of the Black Stone tablet,
Both are:
1:4:9.
There is no error in the slightest.
A goblin named Clark, waving his fists and spitting:
“The ancient wizard, in this way, arrogantly showed us his power!”
“…”
William narrowed his eyes. He didn’t really care about the proportions, but the material of this black stone tablet…
He looked left and right, touched it with his hand, and motioned for Hermione to observe for a while.
In the end, the two murmured and communicated in encrypted language, and came to the conclusion:
This is very similar to the **** rock recorded in the alchemy book.
In other words…it’s made of rocks from the banks of the Reaper.
One of the raw materials for making the Deathly Hallows!
This is what William lacks the most right now!
He suddenly became excited, and he also had a small idea of taking the black stone tablet away for “cultural heritage protection”.
But it is unlikely. If it can be taken away, with the characters of fairies, it has been taken away long ago, and it will stay here.
They probably couldn’t take it with them. After some research, they discovered the secret of the Black Stone Stele.
Soon, the goblins took out another huge stone tablet.
William looked at the thing and felt familiar.
“Isn’t this the Metternich Stone?!”
In 1828, a well-preserved stone tablet was accidentally discovered while digging a well.
The ruler of Egypt at the time, Muhammad Ali, presented this stele to Austrian Prime Minister Metternich.
No wonder Ali licked Metternich so much, giving away cultural relics and beautiful women.
At that point in time, Ali wanted to start a war against Turkey and build an Arab empire centered on Egypt.
And Metternich was in Europe at the time, and that was a huge power.
Metternich first pimped, divorced Napoleon and the queen, and married an Austrian princess.
In the subsequent war of expedition to Russia, he took the Austrian army of 30,000 to paddle, and secretly colluded with Britain and Russia, pitting Napoleon.
After Napoleon’s defeat, he also served as Prime Minister of the Austrian Empire and became a core figure in the “Holy Alliance” and “Quad League”.
He is also the moderator of the Vienna Conference.
Ali wanted to start a war, but he couldn’t get around the Western powers and Metternich.
After getting the stele, Metternich placed it in the Metternich Palace.
This stele was later known as the “Metternich Stele”.
In 1950, it was collected in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
William also visited it when he was pretending to be Targaryen in America.
I just didn’t see the real thing, only the replica.
Unexpectedly, the key magic item to open the altar was actually it, and it was stolen by the fairies.
Wasn’t it stolen?
William didn’t believe that, in the style of the old beauty, it would be handed over to the goblin.
Feeling his strange eyes, Clark immediately blushed, and the blue veins on his forehead burst out, arguing:
“Borrowing a monument can’t be considered stealing… Borrowing a monument!… Can the fairies be considered stealing?”
Succession is an incomprehensible fairy dialect.
Something “originally belonged to Egypt”, “Egypt originated from goblins”, etc., attracted a cheerful atmosphere in the temple.
William also understood.
After Easter, the U.S. Capitol blew up and wizards, Muggles and purgers fought.
The fairies took advantage of the chaos.
In order to prevent being tracked in the middle, Gringotts also deliberately transferred to Haiti. During the Auror pursuit, he also killed a Haitian president.
After changing the subject, Clark pointed to a certain passage of text on the stone tablet and said:
“To enter the altar, you need to recite this spell and prayer.”
In the evolution of ancient Egyptian writing, the earliest form of scripture appeared.
With development, monks and secular fonts appeared.
These fonts are simpler and suitable for writing on papyrus.
But the scriptures did not decline because of this, but coexisted with these fonts and were widely carved in temples and steles.
The content of this stele is written in hieroglyphic script.
Thanks to Champollion’s research on the Rosette, most of the textual meanings of ancient Egypt have been deciphered by him.
But the fairies were still unable to use the Metternich Stone.
Because an ancient Egyptian character, in addition to being able to express meaning, the way of pronunciation is quite variable:
There are single consonant symbols, double or triple consonant symbols.
That is, even if a particular character is known to represent the sound, modern humans cannot read it accurately because the vowels connecting the consonants are missing.
Then again, it might be hard for muggles and goblins, but for William, it’s not that hard.
Back then, the Big Four just left the Invisible Academy in Egypt, and they all speak this language.
After Hogwarts was established, Hufflepuff, as headmaster, taught her students.
In the principal’s office, the portraits of the principals of the past dynasties are preserved, and several of them master this ancient language.
Dumbledore studied with them in order to study the profound meanings of prehistory.
William has also learned about the time loop since he knew that Arya came to Egypt that year.
Of course, there are also many wizards who don’t know the truth. They have always been curious. William has only been at Hogwarts for seven years.
He is so young, no matter how talented he is, why can he master so many skills?
Don’t ask, just ask “my dad taught it in Hawaii”.
The content of the stele, which is not very complicated, depicts important gods in Egyptian mythology, as well as Horus and his father Osiris.
At the top of the list of these gods, eight baboons on the horizon, and the pharaoh are worshipping the sun god.
The main body and base of the stele are covered with inscriptions, and the back and sides of the stele are also engraved with inscriptions.
These words are as magical in their own right as the ancient rune.
The goblins also brought eight baboons, and took out a wand with a unique shape and handed it to William.
That wand was completely different from the wands on the market today.
The material is hippo tusks.
In ancient Egypt, there was a tradition of hunting hippos.
They have long teeth, and items contain magic power, which is weaker than many magic materials today.
even more aggressive.
And the Senepo wand in front of him is also a magic item lost in Egypt, which was found by the goblin.
The Senepo wand and the inscription on the Metternich stele can open the altar of the temple.
William stood directly in front of the black stone tablet~www.mtlnovel.com~ holding the Senepo wand in both hands.
The wand is curved, with an inscription above the tip.
Below the inscription, there are many pictures:
Sun Disc, Sun Eye, Scarab, Striped Celestial Lion, and Sphinx.
William read the inscription in his mouth.
Eight baboons suddenly let out a terrible roar, roaring in the temple like earthquake waves.
William spit out accurately and powerfully, every syllable of the ancient text, he felt a powerful breath, overflowing from the black stone tablet.
William finally sings:
Those who enter this door must give up all hope!
