Hogwarts: Magical Elegy

Sonorous——call——

Sonorous——call——

On a nearly vertical steep rock wall.

David draws on his many years of experience.

Use the least amount of effort to swing the ice pick into the thick ice in front of you.

Behind him was a blizzard with extremely low visibility, and below him was a deep abyss.

Sharp snowflakes like blades hit the goggles, making a crackling sound through bone conduction.

White smoke was rhythmically exhaled from the thick beard, but it was quickly blown away by the cold wind.

Conquering the snow-capped mountains in such a harsh environment is simply challenging the limits of Muggles.

However, David is not a Muggle...he is an excellent adult wizard.

Facing the blizzard, David's heart remained motionless and he always maintained his own rhythm. He used both hands and feet to climb up step by step.

...

He was concentrating on how to save himself more effort. At a certain moment, David's hand waving the ice ax suddenly became empty.

David's mind, frozen by the cold wind, suddenly broke free.

He quickly put down his habitually raised legs and feet to regain his balance.

However, at this moment, a hand grabbed his arm.

Familiar strength and gloves...

David breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

It seems we have arrived at our destination...

With the help of the strength from his hands, David easily climbed onto the stone platform in front of him.

This is a relatively wide and deep cave, and for some reason the blizzard cannot blow in.

David did not dwell on this problem. He skillfully took off his goggles, put away his ice pick and wiped his beard covered with ice crystals.

Behind him is a man who is dressed like him and whose skin is tanned and tanned all the time.

The two men's bodies are as strong as black bears. It is hard to imagine that there are wizards who value physical exercise.

"Thanks! Jade!"

Jed, the man who pulled David onto the stone platform, patted the snow off David's body while he cleaned himself up.

And David's thanks should also include the fact that Jed pulled him just now.

"There's no need to be so polite. The friendship between us is just a trivial matter!"

Jed and David passed by each other, and the two fist bumped lightly.

"Pack it up quickly, we don't have much time!"

Jed, who was walking in front, said loudly, and then threw a small gadget to David.

The sound did not echo in the stone wall, because although the wind and snow outside were blocked from the cave, the roar of the storm was not there.

"No problem! Let's go!"

After tidying up his clothes, David easily caught the gadget in a tacit understanding. It was a looking glass, as long as it was discovered or blocked.

The spyglasses on David and Jade will sound the alarm. They will know that someone is after them.

Recording the fluctuations of the looking glass in his hand, David inserted it into a gap.

Throughout the whole process, he followed Jed's pace without any pause...

Going deep into the cave, after turning a corner, the light in the tunnel completely disappeared.

But as wizards, the two of them did not take out their wands and flash a fluorescent light, but silently took out a wand-like stick.

It starts to glow when gently moved. The beige fluorescence is not bright, but in a completely dark cave, it is enough to illuminate the path forward for the two of them.

"I have to say, Muggle things are really useful."

After turning a few corners, the sound of the howling cold wind disappeared.

The only sounds in the quiet space were the heavy breathing and movement of the two people.

David couldn't help but relax here, and said in a whisper that could not be detected.

Jade naturally heard David's words clearly easily.

He nodded in agreement, and then sighed with the same loudness.

"Yes! If it weren't for Muggle equipment, it would be difficult for us to pass this trial road!"

After a moment of silence, David continued.

"Jason, tell me, have we really found the entrance to the legendary mysterious Dragon Island this time?"

"David...my best friend! You have to believe me!" Jason said angrily.

David smiled slightly, but the expression was just a slight twitch of his thick beard.

Naturally, he heard it. The key points of pronunciation in Jason's words were all at the front.

"I'm not doubting your ability to analyze that parchment. You know, we are now stepping on the path you analyzed!"

"I just doubt that we easily found the entrance that those people spent so long failing to find?"

At the end of the sentence, David's voice couldn't help but become louder.

Jason looked back at him dissatisfied, and David scratched his head angrily.

"David, so far, the records on the parchment are correct..."

He couldn't guarantee whether it was true or not. So far, everything was going smoothly.

————————

Go back a few days ago.

At this time, the peak battle on the European side has ended.

The Allies retained most of their effective forces and withdrew from the European continent.

Grindelwald is also said to have suffered severe injuries in that battle.

However, many people still see him attending various occasions and meetings.

The overwhelming magical pressure that suppressed the entire audience also told everyone that he was not a counterfeit of the Polyjuice Potion.

Some people speculate that the Allies had actually lost that war.

If Grindelwald's side hadn't expected to suffer heavy casualties from the main force of the Allies, MACUSA would have achieved the ultimate victory.

They will definitely unify all of Europe.

There are also various other tidbits.

But after a group of obviously suspicious wizards came to the magic camp on the edge of the East African Rift Valley, they publicly killed a group of guys who slandered the Shadow Empire and the Saints.

The debate over whether that battle was won or not came to an end.

However, new news has come out.

Grindelwald wants to find the most precious treasure on the African continent - the mysterious Dragon Island.

It is said that there are not only the existence of ancient dragons, but also time magic...

David and Jason are adventurers in the wizarding world. They graduated from Beauxbatons, but they are very good friends with Newt.

Due to camp issues, they were forced to leave the European continent.

Unable to continue exploring dangerous places in the magical world such as the Alps, they thought for a while and came to the African continent, where the magical culture is weirder.

The wizards here don't use wands very much because they burn the magic patterns on themselves.

But David and Jed were not interested.

During an accidental exploration of the ruins, David found a piece of tough parchment.

He handed it over to Jed and through interviews and investigations together, he gradually understood the meaning on the parchment.

It turns out to be a trial passage. If Jade’s analysis is correct, the end of the trial is to meet the dragon!

Oh my god, what's so good about the fire dragon and those lizards? They don't even have thoughts.

Just as David scoffed, he suddenly remembered the little secret Newt told them for free when exchanging information with them.

"Do you believe that there once was a group of giant dragons that were as intelligent as us?"
