Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God
Chapter 9 Clues from the ruins, searching for information at night
“I have contacted tutor Evelin on the phone, but unfortunately she doesn’t seem to want to talk about what happened in Hamna Tower.
Moreover, when she went there, she relied on the guide to lead the way, and she did not know the specific address of the capital of the dead. "
In the open-air theater, Clark and Laura sat one behind the other on soft and comfortable seats. Hermione and Neville stood by their side, separating the two from the people around them.
In front of them, dancers in ballet costumes were dancing.
This is the Cairo Opera House, a modern building located on Gdzira Island in the middle of the Nile River.
Every day, many internationally renowned art groups and outstanding local artists perform here, and since they last formed an alliance with Laura at the museum, they have also met here to exchange information.
"It's understandable. After all, it's a sad place for Ms. Evelin. But have you asked about other things?"
Clark sat on the chair, his body confused, opening and closing his mouth just enough for Laura sitting behind him to hear, without disturbing others.
“I also asked about what you mentioned. When Tutor Evelin was working in Cairo, he was in a private library museum.
However, I have already visited that place. Due to poor management, the collection of that library museum was transferred to the Cairo National Museum more than 30 years ago. "
Laura leaned forward slightly, revealing a large amount of white snow.
Fortunately, Clark didn't turn around at this time, otherwise his nosebleed might not stop.
"That means that this clue related to the Tomb Keeper organization has also been broken?" Clark's tone was a little helpless.
He had formed an alliance with Laura before, and he was also interested in her relationship with Evelyn, the heroine of "The Mummy 1".
After all, if they want to go to Hamna Tower, the most important thing is to determine the direction of the destination.
In the original plot, there were only three parties who truly knew the location of Hamna Tower and successfully arrived there.
They are led by the protagonist O'Connor, Evelyn and others who want to hunt for treasures and archeology. A team of American adventurers led by the protagonist's comrade-in-arms Bennie who hopes to make a fortune.
Also responsible for guarding the pharaoh’s tomb,
Prevent anyone from awakening Immorton's Tomb Keeper tribe.
Among them, according to Laura, Evelin and others did not successfully release the priest Immorton in Hamna Tower. Instead, due to some accident, all their team members were lost there. Only Evelin escaped alone.
The one who had the same experience as them was the team of American adventurers led by O'Connor's comrades. This team also had no survivors.
Therefore, the safest way to find Hamna Tower now is to find the tomb-keeper tribe that guards the pharaoh's tomb.
It's just that this tribe usually lives in the desert of Egypt, and its whereabouts are secretive and difficult to contact in a short period of time.
But Clark still remembered that the director of the library and museum where Evelin worked in Cairo was also a member of the Tomb Keepers organization.
Of course, in the original plot, Evelin's curator was already very old, so Clark didn't expect to find him.
But when Clark thought about it, the Tomb Keepers organization was not entirely an isolated tribe. Their lives could not be self-sufficient, and they also needed a secular spokesperson to purchase supplies and find out information for them.
And this person was the director of the library and museum before. Even if the director dies, there must be a candidate to take his place.
Unfortunately, when Clark told Laura this information and asked her to investigate, she told herself that this book museum no longer existed.
It seems that the spokesperson of the tomb-keeper organization has adopted a new way to integrate into the outside world.
Clark sighed, but at this time Laura said slightly proudly, "Of course, I didn't really get nothing."
"What's the harvest?" Clark asked quickly.
“I found out that it was the old director who donated the entire library and museum collection to the Cairo National Museum.
Because of this incident, the old director served as deputy director of the Cairo National Museum for a period of time before his death.
I found an old employee who had worked at the National Museum in Cairo for many years. He said that the old director died suddenly and many things were not handed over clearly.
He had no descendants, so after his death, the museum left his personal belongings in the office for the use of subsequent deputy directors. "
I see! Clark nodded.
"You mean that the old curator's relics may contain some hidden information related to Hamna Tower and the tomb-keeper tribe.
And those things are now in the office of the deputy director of the National Museum in Cairo? "
“I just think it’s possible, but that place is inside a museum, and as you know, in order to protect cultural relics, the museum’s security measures are quite tight.
I can't get in there on my own, so just to make sure, I was wondering if you could use your superb hypnosis skills to go in and search. "
Clark pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Sure, but there are many people talking during the day and there are too many variables. I think we'd better go at night."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you outside the museum in the early hours tonight."
After saying that, the two stopped communicating and watched the ballet performance on the stage quietly.
In the evening, after they returned to the hotel, Clark told Hermione and Neville about the incident.
"Are you really going to the museum with her tonight?" Hermione asked Clark.
"No," Clark shook his head, "I went with Neville and her."
"What you have now are all powerful offensive spells, which are not suitable for this kind of stealth mission.
Besides, you have to rest with Ginny at night. If she finds out that you are not around in the middle of the night and reports to Aunt Weasley, it will be troublesome. "
Hermione was very frustrated, but she also knew that Clark was right, "Okay, I will cover for you."
At around 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, Clark and Neville put on their cloaks together, went out quietly, and under the cover of darkness, headed to the National Museum in Cairo to meet Laura.
After Bill's introduction in the past few days, Clark knew a little bit about the city of Cairo. At least he had memorized the walking route.
The two of them walked through the streets and alleys. Cairo at night was not peaceful. Compared to the safe nights in China, it could be said that there were a lot of demons dancing around here.
More than once, Clark saw a large group of homeless people fighting on the street, just to grab some leftovers from the trash cans.
In addition, on the busy street corners, there are also some women in cool clothes and heavy makeup, posing there and seducing the passing foreign male tourists.
You don't even know whether they are professionals or part-time workers from good families.
Of course, Clark will not be involved in these things, but sometimes if you don't cause trouble, trouble will come to you.
At the very least, it is very dangerous for children like Clark and the others to wander the streets of Cairo in the middle of the night.
Even if they were wearing cloaks, their height already revealed the fact that they were young.
Fortunately, Clark still had psychic powers with him. After using [Shock] to send away three waves of locals who were looking for trouble, they finally arrived at Tahrir Square, not far from the museum.
In the early hours of the morning, Liberation Square was no longer crowded with tourists during the day. Only scattered street lights provided light, and it looked very deserted.
Clark and Clark were dressed in black wizard robes, like two strange ghosts whose feet never touched the ground, walking among the sculptures in the square.
Suddenly, as the two of them passed a stone pharaoh statue, a vague wind sounded from behind their heads.
This wind is actually very light, and others may not be able to detect it.
But as a psychic, Clark has a high sense of danger. As a melee professional, Neville was even more vigilant in this regard.
The two of them crouched and rolled forward, avoiding the blow to the back of the head.
The other one drew out the short sword from his waist, and the bright cold light drew a waning moon, which was directed towards the attacking enemy.
The attacker seemed to have noticed in advance that the dagger in Neville's hand was unusual, and did not choose to confront him head-on. Instead, he took a few steps back and stood in the light of the street lamp.
That proud figure made Clark and Neville recognize her at a glance as Lara Croft.
"Miss Laura, this is not a good way to say hello." Clark stared at her with unkind eyes.
"I didn't expect the reaction from you two would be so big." Laura grabbed her right wrist and said pretending to be dissatisfied.
Under the dim light, Clark, who had extremely keen eyesight, saw that even though she dodged Neville's sword, her wrist was still left with a red mark from the sword wind.
"Honestly, you two are really not like ordinary children. Which child would wander around with such a sharp sword in the middle of the night?"
Laura complained, looking them up and down with searching eyes.
Clark knew that the reason why the other party cooperated with him was not only to find Hamnatta, but also to explore the secrets behind them.
He knew that this was still the trouble caused by using psychic powers in the museum that day.
Fortunately, he and Neville were no longer wizards, otherwise they would still have to worry about the lawsuits that would result from leaking information about wizards to Muggles.
"It's just for self-defense at night. You know how unsafe Cairo is at night."
Clark had to deal with her for a while, "Okay, it's getting late, let's work quickly."
Laura didn't seem to intend to delve deeper into the matter, so she turned around and led Clark and the two of them to the wall of the Cairo National Museum.
Here is a small road, surrounded by tall palm trees. Hiding in the shadows, there is no need to worry about being discovered.
Laura stood under the courtyard wall and was about to climb up when Clark stopped her.
"This museum is not that simple. According to the information I have obtained, although most of the collections in the museum are ordinary cultural relics, some still contain special powers.
So in addition to the security guards who are not very dedicated, there are other forces silently protecting here.
In fact, despite the turmoil in Cairo and the fact that it is filled with precious cultural relics from ancient Egypt, people from all walks of life in Cairo know that this museum cannot be offended. "
Laura heard the information contained in Clark's words, but her expression did not change: "You mean, there is a mysterious power hidden in this museum?"
"Didn't you guess it a long time ago, Miss Laura?" Clark looked at her with a half-smile.
The atmosphere between the two suddenly became tense, but Laura soon smiled, and that bright look made both boys stunned for a moment.
"Sure enough, you two can also have that kind of extraordinary power!" Laura stared at them with bright eyes.
"When I was looking for information, I heard that more than ten years ago, a group of bandits planned to loot this place during the military coup.
They plan to fly away after finishing this job, so naturally they won't taboo anything.
But when they got inside, they disappeared into the museum. No one called the police, and no trace of the bandits was seen. It was as if they were swallowed up by the museum.
It is said that the only person inside at that time was the newly appointed deputy director. "
After hearing Laura's story, Clark and Neville looked at each other, and they had concerns about each other.
Clark said: "Yes, we do know a little bit about extraordinary powers, and as you guessed, there should be people similar to me in this museum, but we belong to different countries."
Laura seemed to have been exposed to this situation before, and was not so surprised by Clark's words.
"They belong to different countries? So you are an official supernatural organization? If you join at such a young age, does that organization have a school dedicated to cultivating superpowers?"
Seeing Laura transform into a curious baby, Clark did not intend to answer immediately.
He finally figured out that this famous archaeologist seemed to have come into contact with some people with extraordinary abilities in the past, so he was very curious about this aspect and even wanted to become one of them.
"We can't say, but if the harvest from this adventure is enough, maybe I can make the decision and give you a ticket to let you enter our world. "
Clark tossed out a piece of pie and Laura immediately took it, "That's it."
After saying that, she no longer hesitated, but carefully pressed herself against the outer wall of the museum. With a slight exertion of her fingertips on the edge of the wall, she easily crossed the wall.
Her steps were light and silent, but her plump body was like an elegant cat, walking very flexibly and gently through the shadows.
Clark and Neville jumped up to the wall and looked at her strong back with thoughtful eyes.
"This technique is partly the way of exerting force in parkour and rock climbing, but more of it is like the steps of assassins and thieves when sneaking.
Being able to fall from a high place without any harm, and making no sound of footsteps when sneaking, it seems that this adventurer lady is not as innocent as she appears. "
