Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

Chapter 16 A skinny camel is not as good as a horse

"These...these...and these books on the shelves."

Clark walked among the bookshelves, followed by Sirius Black.

"I don't want any of it. I want to move everything else. Is that no problem?"

Sirius made a rough mental estimate based on what he pointed out, and found that the books Clark wanted to move were less than half of the entire library, and most of them were actually the Black family's history of magic.

"Actually, I don't have any problem with you moving them all away," Sirius nodded in response, "After all, you helped me clear my grievances..."

"Okay, a deal is a deal, whatever you said at the beginning will be done, you don't need to say anything more." Clark waved his hand to interrupt him.

Sirius didn't say anything more, and just asked: "Are you going to move these books now, or are you going to pick them up later?"

Clark looked at the books in front of him and said with a smile: "Why bother?"

After speaking, he pretended to recite the spell silently, while holding the wand in his hand and drawing a circle in the air.

The next moment, a silver-white circular vortex appeared in front of Harry and Sirius.

These are the two psychic powers [Navigation] and [Material Teleportation] that Clark specifically spent 8,000 experience points to redeem.

[Navigation]: Level 4 psychic prophecy power, consuming 7 points of psychic energy.

The powerful psychic power can allow your consciousness to instantly cross mountains and seas, follow the induction in the dark, and lock on to a location thousands of miles away. The skill duration is 32 (intelligence + perception) minutes. As the distance increases, the duration will also shorten accordingly.

[Material Teleportation]: Level 4 teleportation power, consuming 7 points of psychic energy.

The powerful psychic power allows you to discern the weak points of space, and then twist it to form a subspace channel that can connect two places. It lasts for 3.2 (intelligence + perception) minutes, and the subspace channel is maintained for every 1 minute thereafter. , which will cost 2 points of psychic energy.

(Note: The subspace channel can only be used to transport soulless objects for the time being. After all, you don’t want your unprotected soul to be exposed to the gaze of subspace demons and evil gods.)

Rely on [Navigation Technique] to locate the library of the Prewett Family Castle, and then use [Material Teleportation Technique] to open the subspace passage connecting the two places.

Joyfully, under Clark's distracted control, the Black family's collection of books floated and flew into the silver space vortex one by one.

In less than 5 minutes and spending a total of 18 points of psychic energy, Clark moved all the books he had selected.

Such strange magic even stunned Sirius.

"I didn't expect the Prewett family to have such exquisite space magic. I didn't see Fabian and Gideon using it at first."

Clark just smiled at Sirius' compliment.

At this time, he was very satisfied with the harvest in the library, but Sirius didn't think so. In his opinion, just a few old books seemed not enough to repay Clark's kindness to him.

Perhaps, this is the so-called "it doesn't feel bad to sell my father's land".

"Come on, let's go up first," Sirius led them up the stairs, through the trap door on the wall, and back to the kitchen. "Next, I guarantee you will gain something."

"Thank you very much." Clark said with a gentle smile.

The three of them returned to the dark corridor on the first floor again. Sirius looked at him and Harry and warned: "It might be a little noisy next."

Before the two of them could react, they saw Sirius suddenly move the umbrella stand and open the curtain on the wall.

"Prodigal, mindless fool, defiled my house—"

Mrs. Black's piercing screams once again echoed in the corridor, and both Clark and Harry had to cover their ears.

Only Sirius ignored these vicious curses;

He began to fumble around the outer frame of the portrait.

Suddenly, he jumped back, and Mrs. Black leaned half out of the portrait, waving her sharp nails. Harry was caught off guard and almost caught by her.

"Oh, sorry!" Blake said sheepishly.

"It's okay." Harry took two steps back with contentment.

Neurotic middle-aged and elderly women, so scary! I don’t know how he will get along with this portrait when he lives here in the future.

Fortunately, Sirius's operation finally worked at this time. Mrs. Black's portrait was suddenly squeezed out of the portrait, leaving only a little residual sound like "Prodigal, traitor..." echoing in the room.

Only then did Clark realize that the other secret room of the Black family was actually on the first floor, and it was still in the most conspicuous place.

"Only people with the worst personalities and the most sarcastic personalities can stay in this portrait. Very few people can persist for so long like my mother, and even enjoy it." Black said helplessly.

"Wonderful, what a wonderful idea!" Clark praised sincerely.

Yes, it would be difficult for anyone to resist Mrs. Black's curses and screams, let alone have to endure these curses to carefully check what's behind the portrait.

When Mrs. Black's figure disappeared, a long corridor appeared on the portrait, extending inward to the depth of the portrait.

"Okay, let's go in."

Sirius grabbed the frame with both hands and took the lead to get into the painting.

Yes, that's right, his whole person seemed to have dropped from a three-dimensional object to a two-dimensional one, and turned into a vivid character in the portrait.

Such a strange sight made Harry and Clark marvel.

The two of them did not hesitate and dived in immediately after him. The whole process was very smooth, as if they had passed through a transparent water film.

The next moment, all three people appeared in the corridor in the portrait, surrounded by large pillars as thick as one person, and the feet were replaced by marble floors.

When the two looked back, a portrait was already hanging on the wall behind them.

The scene in the painting is exactly where they were standing just now.

The three of them walked forward along the corridor in the painting. If someone were standing outside the painting at this moment, they could see that the three little people, one large and two small, were disappearing into the depths of the painting and were swallowed up by the darkness.

From Clark's perspective, as the frame behind them recedes, the corridor in front of them is indeed getting wider and wider.

Just like this, they walked forward for dozens of steps, and when they were almost a hundred meters away, they suddenly stopped with a loud shout: "Password!"

Then, they saw a magic wand stretching out from the darkness not far ahead, pointing at them from a distance.

Harry thought he had encountered an enemy and subconsciously wanted to pull out his wand, but was held down by Clark.

When they got closer, Harry realized that what was blocking them was a large mirror as tall as a person.

And the wand they saw just now was just the reflection of the wand in Blake's hand.

What's strange is that there is only Blake's figure in the mirror at the moment, not Clark and Harry.

"The most ancient and noble Black family, forever pure." Sirius replied coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, sparkling light appeared on the mirror, and then a huge room behind the mirror was revealed.

"Okay, let's go in." Sirius said to Clark.

The moment they stepped in, the torches on the walls of the room automatically burned.

Everything is clear and legible.

In front of them, they were also divided into two spaces, but what was different from the previous library was that this time the two rooms had two thick rock arches.

The stone door looks very heavy. In the center is a dog-headed stone with complex patterns carved around it, and with some magic characters, there is a magic power flowing in it, making it indestructible at first glance.

Sirius walked up to the two stone doors, cut his fingertips, and smeared a little blood on the withered nose tips of the two dog-headed stones.

Soon, after sensing the blood of the Black family, the two dog-headed stones withered and enlarged their mouths, revealing the door handles inside.

Nice romance novel

Clark then realized that if he were not of the Black family's blood, even if outsiders broke through the portrait and passed through the mirror door, they might not be able to obtain the Black family's treasures.

At this time, Sirius had already reached in and turned the door handle.

With a roar, two arches opened their arms to Clark.

"There are two rooms in this secret room, one is a gold storage room, and the other is specially used to store various precious magic props and alchemy materials. Now, you can go in and choose."

Blake looked at Clark seriously, "Of course, just like those books, I have also donated some of the more dangerous things to Hogwarts in advance."

Clark nodded and first entered the gold storage room on the right.

Unlike many emerging wizard families, pure-blood wizard families with a long history like Black and Prewett still retain their prejudice against goblins, so they don't like to keep money in Gringotts.

This is just like how many rural old men and women like to put money in jars and bury them underground.

What the pure-blood wizard family is most willing to do is to create a secret room underground in their own castle and then put all the gold coins in it.

Therefore, when Clark walked into the room, he immediately saw many huge boxes neatly stacked against the wall.

I opened a box at random, and it was filled with glittering gold and precious treasures.

Boxes of different sizes contain gold coins from various eras.

There are the most recent gold Galleons, but also some of the strange gold coins used by the wizarding world before Gringotts existed.

The historical value of some gold coins in the box has even far exceeded the amount of money it represents.

However, in the face of such wealth, Clark didn't even blink. Blake stood aside and couldn't help but marvel at how calm he still was.

At such a young age, he is still calm and calm when it comes to money, which is really extraordinary.

But what he didn't know was that in Clark's eyes, the wealth in front of him was not worth mentioning at all.

After all, unlike the Black family, which had been sitting on nothing, the Prewett family has now regained its second spring in Clark's hands.

Whether in the magical world or the Muggle world, their family's business is thriving.

Not to mention the family's original businesses, Flourish and Blott Bookstore, the Daily Prophet and the Owl Post Office.

The Prewett family made a lot of money just from the subsequent sales of the Extraordinary Potion Store and magic cards.

Not to mention that their family has now opened up a new business of dragon breeding. In addition to the hotel, media, tourism and gambling businesses in the Muggle world, these gold coins of the Black family really don't take his eyes. inside.

Sirius didn't know the luxury of the Prewett family, and thought that the money in this room could repay some of Clark's kindness.

Only Harry, who had lived in the Clark family for a while, had some vague guesses in his mind - it seemed that the wealth of the godfather's family was not as good as that of the Clark family.

At this time, Sirius didn't know what his godson was thinking, and he was smiling and saying to Clark, "Now, they are yours."

Harry subconsciously pulled Sirius's sleeve, preparing to remind him of the Clark family's financial resources.

But Clark just nodded calmly, without deliberately showing off his wealth, "Okay, then I'll take half."

But this time, he had no choice but to repeat his old trick and use teleportation to send away the gold coins.

After all, the entire Black family's treasure room is well protected, and even the surrounding space has been reinforced with magic to prevent guys like Clark who can use space spells.

He could only pile the gold coins at the door, move them out together later, and then use teleportation to send them away.

They walked out of the treasure room and went to the treasure room next door.

As soon as he entered the room, even though he was prepared, Clark still sighed inwardly.

Sure enough, "a skinny camel is not as good as a horse." Although there are rows and rows of shelves in this room, it is a pity that many of the shelves above are empty.

None of the expensive alchemy items and magic raw materials that I imagined existed.

Obviously, when the Black family was in the most embarrassment, they had already sold off their family treasures.

But yes, if the Black family had hidden powerful alchemy tools back then, Sirius's younger brother would not have sacrificed himself.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Sirius couldn't help but blush, "Here...here...there are some good things here, but I have already donated them to Hogwarts."

Yeah, there are some good things.

Clark walked by the shelf and looked at the nameplates: cat leopard's tail feathers, Tebo warthog's teeth and skin, thunderbird's claws, unicorn's horn, thestral's tail feathers, etc...

None of these precious magic materials are available!

Yes, just a little dust on the shelf.

Clark even saw the shadow of a phoenix skeleton on the wall directly opposite the treasure room door.

Yes, the red shadow on the wall is obviously the flame element on the Phoenix skeleton that has been imprinted on it over time.

What a pity, what a pity.

He looked at the treasure room where only some ordinary magic materials and some useless alchemy props were left. Finally, he couldn't help but turned to Sirius and asked:

"So, that's why you're selling this house?"
