the lost castle

988 AD.

The news of this era can never be conveyed quickly. Even if the news is confirmed a few months ago, it will take another few months before the departure.

A group of people standing outside the castle looked up at this familiar yet unfamiliar building eagerly. It hadn't been covered with moss of different shades, the outer wall had no mottled traces, and there was no vicissitudes of life standing quietly in the setting sun. There is no such thing as glass in the windows, and there are no owls flying around the tall towers, but it is still Hogwarts.It is the place that wizards miss the most at first. After 15 years of uneasy days in the Middle Ages, Hogwarts seems to have become the deepest and most firm belief in everyone's heart, no matter what kind of emotion it is, it is difficult to shake.

Because Hogwarts will be their only hope to go back.

Thousands of years later, the Order of the Phoenix, who is very familiar with the surroundings of Hogwarts, certainly would not foolishly pass through the Forbidden Forest, but groped directly from the town of Hogsmeade, where Muggles and wizards lived together a few years ago.What?You said secret way?That kind of thing doesn't even exist now!Of course, Hogwarts is now in a state of complete defense. First of all, the Muggle banishing spell is ineffective against wizards. Then, many repelling magic and invisible spells even make the wizards in England change their colors. The black magic arranged by the Big Four The traps and triggering curses have no effect on the excited Order of the Phoenix, or even the Death Eaters...

Cough, Hogwarts judged that there is a guardianship contract relationship with these people, do not activate guardianship magic, and are allowed to enter. Contractors who have not been effective for seven years (those who have not graduated before, such as Ron, Hermione) can enter the castle. Residents, those who signed a unilateral and unrepealed lifetime contract (Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick) are also released, and those who have passed a seven-year contract (adult wizards include Death Eaters) Well, it seems that this seven years has not happened yet, from magic According to the contract, there were conflicts and confusions in time, but these wizards were indeed recognized as Gryffindor/Slytherin/Ravenclaw... they could only be released.

So finally they can truly be called the Big Four, and the four most famous wizards in England are sitting in the hall depressed.

"Dean! These wandering wizards, we will drive them out of Hogwarts."

Looking down from the corridor, a group of the original students of the Lion Academy were of different ages, but they all looked the same and were full of confidence.

"Or, we can try the devil vine that the dean said yesterday?" Then there are Hufflepuffs who have the second largest number of people, said to be the second largest, but there are only eight people, and they also look the least together standing together. Coordinated, teenage boy to a few years old covered with smudges, gnawing nails, ignorant child, curious, angry, as if it didn't exist, and covered with a dark aura, they also include the other three Characteristics of college students.

There are only more than 20 people in this group, and the first batch of Hogwarts students all have one thing in common.

Even a child who doesn't know much about the world has cold eyes. In the eyes of wizards thousands of years later, black wizards must have eyes, and they only have eyes that live in cruelty and never see the sun.

To be more precise, it was probably when Dumbledore saw Tom Riddle in the orphanage for the first time, and because of the look in Riddle's eyes, he became vigilant - someone who does not belong to a child, has seen death and is more serious than death. Terrible things will happen, look at the eyes of this world.

In this day and age, no matter whether it is a little wizard of the hemp seed or a little wizard of pure blood, the experience is not good.

The gods that foolish people believe in cannot kill them, but they can make foolish people who believe in gods burn them alive. There are many Muggle parents who are the parents and children of wizards burned to death. , there is no shortage of pure-blood descendants who hid among Muggles with their parents to hide their wizard identity, but they were still powerless to see their parents die to protect themselves, hating everything, and half-blood wizards with completely different parents will have misfortunes from time to time after 1000 years, Not to mention in this era, hatred and blood are the shadows that cannot be shaken off in the eyes of these children.

No food, no place to live, panic, every wizard I met was not a companion, but an enemy more terrifying than Muggles. Sometimes there was only so little food, and even the most powerful wizard couldn't survive.

So, when they saw these two groups of wandering wizards appearing in a panic next to Hogwarts, these children had to prepare their hands first. "Hey, I said Rowena, these ones - they look familiar."

Ravenclaw, who was wondering and just wanted to run to check the magic circle, was startled and looked back at Gryffindor.

"It's familiar, maybe I've seen it somewhere." Godric started to rub his chin in thought, with a strange expression on his face, "I probably saw it once, or more than ten years ago."

Completely correct.

Even if the Big Four are very capable wizards, it is still a bit difficult for them to think of the group of people they met on a moonlit night 15 years ago, and the Order of the Phoenix, especially the Death Eaters, has changed too much. Haggard and so embarrassed that he has long since lost the suit he wore when he came here.The young ones have grown up, and the Death Eaters are almost the same as when they escaped from Azkaban, but the idea that civilians are so shabby is not so eye-catching.

At this time, Professor Flitwick's elf blood showed great advantages.

"Helga, there seems to be a goblin in there!" Ravenclaw almost screamed.

"What? Goblin, where is it? Salazar, run, I'm here!"

The Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters were still staring at each other coldly. They didn't recover from the emotion of finally seeing Hogwarts. They saw a man in silver knight armor appearing at the gate of the castle. His face could not be seen clearly against the light. In his hand is-

Big cross ruby ​​hilt, sharp and cold light.

"Sword of Gryffindor!!"

Ron, who was excited, had already been thrown away by Godric's spell. If it wasn't for Hermione's quick reaction, it is estimated that the second flame spell would have prevented Molly from knowing that it was Ron Weasley.

"The goblins have become smarter and know how to ask wizards for help?"

Godric Gryffindor will never dislike too many troublemakers.

"Flame—"

Before finishing a spell, a certain knight was dragged back by life.Only an empty castle gate was left to make everyone in the Order of the Phoenix stare.

"Godric!"

"Uh, Helga? I...well, I was wrong, the Fire Charm will burn out...Don't tell me to replant the grass like last time!"

Helga turned around silently, and Rowena had already started to giggle.

"..."

Sometimes, I really doubt whether a certain blond knight has a natural habit of pretending to be stupid. You said that since he usually shows so much importance to someone, why can he even mishear Salazar's voice this time?Still facing Helga's extremely serious argument?

"Not a goblin."

It was just a group of people who were equally excited when they saw the Gryffindor sword. The Duke of Slytherin silently glanced at the crown on Rowena's tea-blond hair. It was an extremely powerful white magic item, and it belonged to a loot that was snatched by someone.

Gryffindor's sword, Ravenclaw's crown, and the astonishment that the group of people expressed to their locket 15 years ago, but Helga still doesn't seem to have a golden cup-shaped magic item.

Before the Big Four inside the door finished speaking, the two groups of people outside the door were already furious.

Surviving 15 years in the Middle Ages, what is the most heard news recently?

That's right, the dark wizard Salazar Slytherin, even the Death Eaters can't help admiring them. They admired them since they were young, but they haven't had such a scary academy founder. If they don't live in this era, they don't know the horror here. Well, since the Robert family ascended the throne of West Frank, the Holy See has encouraged the lords in its territory not to recognize the new kingship. Seeing the constant battles, the people who went to assassinate Bishop Gelbert died one after another. The Holy See is preparing to plan the third jihad, anyway, there are too many powerful Muggle nobles who want to start a war.

"Wait! Lord Gryffindor! Really, I know the school has only just been established. Lord Gryffindor, you must be short of many people. You probably don't even have many house-elves. Night watchmen, forest watchers, really. , Rubeus Hagrid has been a gamekeeper and key keeper for 50 years, and is very experienced in guarding the Forbidden Forest..."

"This half-giant?" A soft chuckle came from Ravenclaw. "He will be eaten to the bone by the werewolves in the Forbidden Forest."

"But Hagrid has been doing it for 50 years—"

"Wait, these—could they be the group we met more than ten years ago who are said to have come from a thousand years later..."

The Big Four, look at me, I look at you, well, it’s daytime, and no one knows what the concept of 1000 years will be, so I thought it was just a momentary mistake of time magic, but——

"By the way, do you lack a professor of Transfiguration? Are you missing a professor of Charms?" Kingsley Shacklebolt of the Order of the Phoenix shouted loudly, with great courage, but faced The Big Four inside shouted~~Professor McGonagall's face was pale, and Professor Flitwick had fainted from excitement. Think about it, the honor of being a Hogwarts professor hired by the Big Four~~

"And the professor of Muggle studies, I can barely do it." Arthur Weasley hurriedly said, but was soon frightened back by his wife's stern gaze.

"Hogwarts administrator!!"

It doesn't make sense that it can't be regarded as something that a squib can do! !

"Watcher!" Hagrid refused to give up.

"Let the so-called Muggles die! Have you lived here for more than ten years and still don't understand? Cursing, black magic, this is what you should learn!!" Death Eaters, what you say makes sense, but Why don't you think that there are some students in the group who can teach you black magic.

"Hermione, why don't you speak, we believe in you, you can definitely be a good professor of any class!"

The Gryffindor Activity Library already has the desire to die.

Merlin, they just yelled this ridiculous in front of the four founders...

Inside the castle, a seven or eight-year-old girl timidly pulled off Helga's robe: "Dean? What is a professor? Does Hogwarts lack this?"

"...Hogwarts, only house-elves are missing..."
