In This Hogwarts Without a Savior Chapter 294

  Chapter 294 292. Map

   Adrian Fox.

  The name only appeared in his memory two or three times, but it was these two or three times that Jon deeply remembered it.

   It's not because of anything else, but because his biggest reliance now, whether it's the levitating spell or the variation of the universal solution, the necessary ring and the gemstones on the ring are all created by a wizard with this name!

   This person used to be a good friend of Slughorn, but after creating the ring and a few gems, he passed away, and he didn't even have the chance to see whether the work he completed had any real effect.

  Jon never expected to find his laboratory in this underground labyrinth in the North Pole!

   "What's wrong, Jon."

   Floating above his head, Gabriel, who was still confused, asked doubtfully.

   Of course she didn't know Adrian Fox, nor did she understand what the name meant to Jon.

  Jon also came back to his senses at this time, he took a deep breath, and said softly.

   "I'm fine."

   Then he stretched out his hand towards the door, trying to push it open.

  However, the ordinary-looking wooden door remained motionless, as if it was locked, and there was no way to open it directly.

In the case that the other three rooms were destroyed by the basilisk, the entrance of this laboratory is still so well preserved. Of course, it is unlikely that the basilisk will be merciful. The biggest possibility is that the laboratory itself has Part of the protection ability.

  After Jon tried to push the door directly to no avail, he tried to wave his wand and use the unlocking spell on the doorknob, but it still had no effect.

   Then he took off the ring that he had been wearing around his neck, put it on the index finger of his right hand again, and finally pushed the door with the ring-wearing hand.

   This time he didn't encounter any resistance, and just pushed the door open so easily!

  Jon showed an expression as expected, while Gabriel looked at the ring on Jon's hand with a look of surprise. Even if Jon used it, he had never taken it out before.

   "Who gave you this ring? Have you been proposed by any girl?"

  Jon flicked her head angrily.

   "It was given by one of my teachers. You hadn't come to Hogwarts at that time. You were young, what was going on in your mind."

  Gabriel held her head with an aggrieved expression and followed Jon into the laboratory.

   This place is obviously not damaged like the other three rooms, and all kinds of furniture inside are still neatly arranged around.

There is a small bookcase in the corner, but apart from a few empty vases, there are no other books on it. There is a single bed at the corner between the two walls, covered with mattress sheets, and a bed. Quilt.

   Directly opposite the door is a set of tables and chairs, with some old parchment left on them.

  Jon wandered around the bookshelves first, and after finding nothing more than the vases, he came to the desk and began to flip through the messy parchments.

   These are obviously some experimental notes, but the content is very scattered. Jon studied for a long time before he could see that he came to the North Pole, and wanted to find more gems that could be embedded in the ring and used to cast spells on himself.

  The importance of gemstones to rings is similar to the core of a wand, but compared to most materials that belong to magical creatures that can be used as cores, the requirements for gemstones in rings are extremely strict.

Adrian has been researching all his life, and he only found a gem on Mount Olympus that can transmit the magic power of a wizard's body, but the weight of that stone can only allow him to divide three stones at most. The double-digit-plus gems are a far cry.

Yes, at the beginning, he planned to make the gemstones more finely divided. Embedding such stones on the ring can make the magic that the ring can cast more diverse, but unfortunately, it is finally limited by some reasons of the wizard itself. , and the raw materials are limited, so only five gems can be made.

  Adrien, who came to the North Pole, started to look for suitable materials after using up the stone from Mount Olympus, and finally found it under the maze of the North Pole.

Jon rummaged through the scattered materials on the table, and he could only roughly see that Adrian did successfully make a gemstone in this maze, but for some unknown reason, he managed to take the gemstone away. .

  Because of incomplete information, Jon didn't find out the reason, but he was sure that there was indeed a gemstone left here.

   This couldn't help but make Jon very excited. Since Slughorn handed him the ring, Jon knows better than anyone how great the improvement the ring itself has brought him is.

  If it weren't for the ability to cast spells on himself, the dangers he experienced alone would have killed a normal wizard hundreds of times without knowing it.

And for Jon, every extra gem represents a newly promoted spell position. He can rely on this gem to research new magic that can improve himself, which represents another strength for him. across.

But Adrian left too little information here, and those scattered materials are more like a pile of useless waste manuscripts. Apart from letting Jon know the purpose and results of his coming here, there is nothing more. A lot of information is provided.

  After Jon went through all the information on the table, he opened a drawer beside the table, and in the drawer, he made a new discovery!

  A very valuable discovery!

   "Look here!"

  His voice attracted Gabriel, who was wandering around the room, trying to figure out where they were in the corridor and where in the maze.

  She floated to Jon's side, and together with him, they looked at the parchment they found in the drawer.

   That's a map!

   A map depicting the route of most of the maze.

  Adrien obviously lived in this labyrinth under the ice for a long time, and he doesn't know how he got along with the basilisk, but it seems that no conflict broke out between the two sides.

   Using this period of time, he not only found stones suitable for making ring gems under the ice, but also drew a map along all the routes of the maze.

Although the map is a bit crude, it is not an ordinary blueprint, it has special magic on it, although it is not as magical as the Marauder's Map in Hogwarts, but it can also rely on the map itself. Continue positioning on the map.

  Their current location is the northwest corner of the entire map, and the area of ​​the maze depicted on the map is extremely huge.

  Jon and the others have spent nearly half a day from the entrance to the current location, which is only about one-tenth the size of the entire maze.

There are also two or three targets marked on this map. There is no other explanation to see what these marks represent. What is certain is that one of these marks must be the gem that Adrian did not take away from here. !

  With this, it not only provides Jon with a walking route in the maze, but also gives him an exact goal.

Even though he has already entered the maze, Jon actually hasn't figured out why Grindelwald asked him to come here specially, but now that he has the news of one of the ring gems, he at least has an accurate direction .

   It can be said that this map is his biggest gain after entering the maze.

  Afterwards, Jon carefully checked everything in the room again, and after confirming that there were no other more valuable discoveries, he had no intention of leaving here immediately.

At present, this corridor is safe for the time being, and Jon didn't rest during the day, he rushed for a day, and then fought with a group of Death Eaters in the evening, and ran away after entering the maze I have been exercising nervously for several hours, and I even killed a basilisk just now.

This has already made Jon feel exhausted. It just so happens that there are beds and quilts in this laboratory. He used a cleaning spell and lay down on the bed with peace of mind, and then "hired" child labor, so that those who did not need to rest Bree helped guard the corridor outside the door, and fell asleep peacefully like this.

  Jon was indeed very tired. When he woke up, he looked at the time on his pocket watch, and it was almost ten hours later.

   Gabriel was so free during this period that she panicked. When Jon came out of the laboratory to find her, she was squatting in the room that originally belonged to the Basilisk cafeteria to observe the bears and wolves in the ice.

   "Do you want to taste what Xiaobai No. 2 tastes like?"

  Jon's seductive voice rang in Gabriel's ear, which made Gabriel stunned, and a stream of crystal clear saliva subconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth.

   But then, she struggled and shook her head.

"In no mood!"

   "The bears in these ice cubes are already dead. We dug out one and cut off its palm to taste it, but nothing happened."

   But even if Jon said so, Gabriel still can't accept eating a creature of the same kind that was her friend before.

Even after hearing Jon say that as long as the bear's paws are roasted on the fire and sprinkled with a little cumin, salt and chili powder, how delicious it will be, she slipped "sad" from the corner of her mouth again without disappointment. Drooling, but in the end, he still insisted not to be overwhelmed by the delicious nature.

  Jon could only regretfully take out the dry food that Eric had prepared for them from his pocket, and gave some of it to Gabriel.

   Gabriel in a ghost state certainly doesn't feel any hunger, but she is not a real ghost after all, and she has been using her sense of taste to taste something, which is always good for her future state.

   After eating and drinking enough, they were ready to go again. Jon carried Nick, who was still terrified, on his back, and left with a map in his hand in the opposite direction of the corridor they entered.

  After reaching the end of the corridor, Jon did the same thing as if he had entered here, used a universal despell on himself, and then left here with Gabriel.

   Returned to the icy maze. This time, they didn't have to run around like headless chickens when they encountered a fork in the road. Instead, they followed the directions on the map and headed towards the nearest marked point.

   "Why does Nick always have this expression, can I change it for him?"

   Gabriel, floating behind Jon, tries to have some fun with Nick.

   "If you can move his face, of course you can change it casually."

   "He's hard as a rock, I'm sure I can't squeeze it! Give me a quill, please, Jon."

  Hearing Gabriel's request, Jon shook his head decisively.

   "If you want, you can take it yourself. If I give it to you, and you scribble on Nick's face, then he will definitely reprimand me loudly after he recovers."

   "He will definitely not know now. As long as I don't say it, and you don't say it, no one will know."

   Gabriel floated around Jon, she had been wanting to draw a **** on Nick's face for a long time.

But as Nick's loyal friend, Jon still sternly rejected her (in fact, he knew that although Nick had been petrified, his perception of the outside world was still there.), and protectively put Nick on his back on his back. In front of him, to prevent Gabriel from making trouble secretly.

   Just as Gabriel kept begging Jon, and they had just passed a fork in the road, Jon suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart!

   This premonition came out of nowhere, like a sudden panic, but there was nothing around!

He didn't take this flustering seriously. This kind of intuition-like perception has verified its accuracy many times. Grindelwald also emphasized to him that this intuition is actually a manifestation of his talent for prophecy .

  All Yi En immediately stopped the playfulness with Gabriel, stopped Gabriel with a serious face, and stopped his own steps.

  Gabriel could feel the seriousness of the matter from Jon's expression, she immediately shut up, grabbed the corner of Jon's clothes obediently, and followed him closely.

   After a rough glance around, Jon didn't find anything unusual, but he still didn't move forward. Instead, he kept looking ahead, holding the wand in his hand, and started to step back cautiously.

   Just as he took the second step backwards, a sudden change occurred!

  On the ice walls on the left and right, and the position directly in front of him, there was a burst of air distortion, and three figures suddenly appeared!

  At the same time they appeared, the sound of spells sounded together!

"Avada Kedavra!"

  The pathetic green light instantly illuminated the entire passage of the maze, and the three killing curses that almost blocked all of Jon's escape routes tore through the cold air like violent snakes!

  Jon, who was always blessed by the floating spell, the moment his brain reacted, his body began to stretch the distance and position to the limit at a speed that normal people could not do at all.

   Even so, he narrowly avoided the two killing curses, and the killing curse shot from the left still hit his body accurately.

  Nick who was petrified before!
