Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Harry rode the Firebolt, faster than all his companions. He raised his wand high, a silver light enveloped his whole body, and rushed into the dark underground passage like a cannonball. After passing the long secret passage, ahead of him

Suddenly it became clear, and the battle situation of Bai Lin and others could be seen from a distance.

Harry's fingers that were holding the wand turned blue from exerting so much force, and he didn't even notice that his nails were pricking his palms. At this moment, he just wanted to rush into the battle and use his meager strength to help Bai Lin. This was a

He has a sense of justice that hates evil and bravely braves Longtan, and he also has some values ​​that want to prove himself and shine brightly. Not only him, but all the newbies are already full of fighting spirit, looking forward to fighting to the death to avenge their murdered relatives, friends and classmates, and to uphold justice.

, cleanse away evil.

Graqua in the middle of the hall caught Harry's attention. He gritted his teeth and rushed straight towards Graqua. He didn't want to care about what level of terrifying existence Graqua was, even though he knew in his heart that he might be killed instantly.

He was not afraid, even if it was just to get an opportunity for Bai Lin to attack, he was willing to give it a try.

However, Gracua apparently also noticed this group of cute figures. Although he was an octopus head with yellow eyeballs, Harry could clearly see that Gracua smiled sinisterly at him, and then Harry

My vision went dark, as if every huge pocket was enveloping me like a butterfly net.

Harry was really shocked and quickly grabbed the broom. Although he was brave and superhuman, he had lost sight of his target. His first feeling was of course that he had been hit by the opponent's space magic and was transported to a strange place. However, when he waited, he seemed to have passed through

When his eyes lit up again under a layer of black fog, the scorching air rushed towards him, and the fiery sunlight above his head stung his eyes.

"Where is this?" Eddie and Neville's voices came from behind. Harry turned his head to confirm that his two friends were fine, and then turned his attention to the boundless yellow sand below.

A group of people wearing white cloth were fleeing in the desert. Looking at their ancient West Asian civilian attires and camels loaded with goods, Harry directly judged that they were desert caravans, and those who were chasing them were a group of armored people.

The cavalrymen had cross-shaped markings everywhere on their armor.

This was a one-sided massacre. The soldiers killed all West Asian civilians who were within reach of their swords. No matter whether they were men or women, or even children who were not as tall as a horse's belly, white clothes stained red with blood could be seen everywhere on the desert.

Bodies, slaughtered camels, scattered goods, and miserable cries for help echoed across the sky.

"This is...the Crusades?" Eddie reacted first. He had a good knowledge of European history. He recognized the cavalry marks as soon as he saw them. However, none of the three of them understood why they were suddenly teleported.

here.

In the eleventh century, after Byzantium was defeated at the Battle of Manzikert in 1071, the Seljuk Dynasty occupied almost all of Anatolia. On the eve of the Council of Clement, the Byzantine Empire had lost almost half of its original territory.

At that time, Emperor Alexius I of the Eastern Roman Empire only retained the Balkans and the northwest of the Anatolian Peninsula. At this time of life and death, Alexius I asked the Catholic Church for help on the grounds of regaining the Holy Land of Jerusalem (this

(which had been occupied by the Islamic regime for more than 400 years), hoping that the Catholic Holy See would organize an army to fight against the Islamic regime in West Asia could be said to be a plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf.

The Catholic Pope Urban II saw great strategic value in this request for help, so he followed the trend and gathered a large number of volunteer troops from European countries to advance toward West Asia in a mighty manner, because this coalition army was shaped like a cross.

As a mark, it was called the Crusades in history.

Later historians also conducted a lot of analysis and interpretation of this period of history. Although Europeans still use various sacred reasons to explain the war actions at that time, everyone knows that the Crusades, which lasted for 200 years and totaled 9 times, were nothing more than

It is nothing more than an act of aggression by the European regime.

Just like the scene before Harry and others, among the cavalry group, there were even people wearing mail armor and strapping thick Bibles to their backs. While watching the soldiers hacking and killing the civilians in the caravan, they were still shouting at the top of their lungs.

:

"Pagans are followers of the devil!

To kill them is to free them!

Soldiers, fight for the Lord and the Lord will forgive all your sins!”

…

As the priest shouted, the soldiers became even more cruel. Many of the people who escaped were directly beheaded, or several soldiers got on top of them and cut them into pieces.

Harry and his two friends looked at each other, at a loss for a moment. The scene in front of them was completely different from the stories they had seen since childhood. In their storybooks, film and television works, and even textbooks, the Crusades were all about retaking the Holy Land.

, is just, pure, and holy... In their hearts, the Crusaders are full of faith and abide by the spirit of chivalry. They only punish evil and promote good, hoe the traitor and help the weak. How could they use such cruelty as before?

What about the methods used to massacre unarmed West Asian civilians?

The three of them were shocked speechless for a moment, because they were high in the air and saw an oasis in the distance of the desert. Next to the oasis seemed to be a village. A group of Crusaders had rushed into the village. After a while, the houses in the village were

It was ignited by the fire. Judging from the intensity of the fire, it seemed that it was not an ordinary burning, but caused by some kind of fire-based black magic. It seemed that there were many wizards among the Crusaders.

Perhaps there was a brutal "witch-killing campaign" in ancient Europe, but it seems that wizards were also forgiven by the Lord when it came to the crusade against heretics. As long as their magic was to burn heretics to death, wizards were also sacred.

"This, this, this...is this an illusion from the Church of Hastur?" Harry said with some difficulty.

After a few seconds of silence, Neville replied: "I'm afraid it's true... I've watched "The Wars of Religion"... and Dante's "Inferno"..."

The "Inferno" that Neville mentioned should be some early version, originally written in the early fourteenth century, when the Crusades had ended and the European armies had almost completely withdrawn. Although the Catholic Vatican was unwilling to admit it, in fact, two hundred

The Crusades for many years have all failed, and Europe is suffering from the consequences of defeat. Dante implicitly hinted at many evils and crimes during the Crusades, exposing the corruption and depravity of the church.

"This is an echo of history..." Another voice came from beside the three people. When Harry turned his head, he saw Catherine, whose body was exuding a light golden color, floating next to him, but at this time, Catherine was no longer gorgeous.

's wings.

"Are we just watching here, let's go down together and save every one we can!" Neville said naively.

"It's useless... We are just bystanders to the echo of history. We can't change anything here..." Catherine said helplessly.

"Then what's the point? Force us to watch a movie?" Eddie asked with a grin.

"You three should be like me, belonging to the orderly and good camp... Gracua wants to break our psychology..." Catherine murmured.
