The Evil God of Hogwarts

"Is he that guy named John? Our internal response in the Key Hall?" Reko asked persistently, after getting Xing Ze's confirmation.

He came to his own conclusion, "It seems that he is not without merit."

"It would be better if he could send another instruction manual." Xing Ze said looking at the crystal and pollution counter in his hand.

"Don't worry, leave it to me." Reko asked. Xing Ze took the crystal and pocket watch.

"You know how to use it?"

"Edwin's grandfather," the poet pinned the crystal brooch to his robe, "he participated in the research of these gadgets. In the research materials he left behind, there are many design drafts and notes about this. I have all I’ve read it. I think the finished product shouldn’t be that bad.”

"Okay, tell me how to use it." Xing Ze also pinned the crystal brooch to his chest, "I'll go in alone."

"What?" The poet looked confused, "Oh, hell. I'm fine, Xing Ze."

"It's not up to you to decide whether something happens or not."

"Come on." The poet curled his lips, "I was only in the hallucination for half a minute, only half a minute, Xing Ze."

"It's enough." Xing Ze knew the feeling of being trapped in a hallucination. "It's enough to make a person insane."

"Then you must not know what happened to me in a port town in the United States. The horrific things I saw that night almost made me give up hope."

"Reko, listen to me..."

The poet waved his hand and said: "Let me go in with you, Xing Ze, this is not negotiable. Believe me, I can spend the whole day with you here."

"Fuck, okay, okay." Xing Ze compromised helplessly, "Tell me how to use this thing."

"Put your magic power into it and follow the lines inside it." Reko pointed his wand at the crystal on his chest. "It's like walking through a maze, just find the exit. By the way, I'm the maze master."

After that, he closed his eyes and focused all his attention on the crystal.

The poet quickly lit up the crystal. He opened his eyes proudly, only to find that Xing Ze was looking at his own crystal thoughtfully.

"It keeps flashing, is that normal?"

Reko nodded and replied with a slightly disappointed and questioning tone: "Normal. It will change three colors in total. First it is green. After the entire crystal turns green, the color will change to red, and then black.

"Once the entire crystal turns black, it means it is no longer useful. We will be contaminated by dreams. You can unravel the crystal patterns very quickly."

Xing Ze shrugged, "How far is it for a novice?"

Hearing this, the poet showed a relieved smile, "Ah, yes, it must be the good luck of the novice. Let me carry the counter. It takes too much time to explain that thing."

"It doesn't matter."

…

The iron door was opened again, but this time Xing Ze did not feel the chill. Although the crystal could block mental pollution, it still had no effect on the stench.

Reko walked in first with a counter. After Xing Ze came in, he turned to look at the iron door.

"I see," he said to himself.

Xing Ze frowned and turned to look as well. I saw a five-pointed star pattern carved on the iron gate at the end, and in the middle of the pattern was a pattern similar to an eye.

"Old seal." Xing Ze whispered.

According to the "Key to the Door", this strange symbol represents the will of the gods and can not only block the attacks of dream objects, but also resist the mental pollution of dreams.

"It seems we have opened Pandora's box." Reko smiled, and he turned around and continued walking forward. Xing Ze followed closely, and they went down the stairs to find the source of the pollution based on the counters.

Just like in the Forbidden Forest, the office building has been completely corrupted. A lot of stinking black liquid seeped out from the cracks in the wall. Huge crystal blocks, like ripe fruits, drilled out from every corner.

Xing Ze saw a desk that was folded and twisted, several chairs staggered together in an incomprehensible way, and he also saw a shining dead mouse. The mouse was as big as a cat, and like those unknown crystals, its whole body exuded strange colors.

"Don't get close to those crystals." Reko pointed at the counter and warned.

Xing Ze nodded, and he used his keen hearing to collect all the movements around him. There was no sound, no sign of anything alive, at least on the first floor.

The two walked forward cautiously, trying to get from the stairs to the next floor, but they found that the stairs going down were twisted into a ball, like a tangled ball of wool.

"For Merlin's sake." The poet shook his head, "We have to find another way down."

"Smash the floor." Xing Ze said, "It's faster this way."

"I'm afraid this method won't work." Reko replied, "The magic here is very chaotic."

Xing Ze closed his eyes and felt the magic power around him. It was really messy, but he could still collect some usable magic power.

"Try it. If it doesn't work, we'll find another way."

Reko reluctantly agreed: "Okay, if you insist on doing it."

Xing Ze recited the incantation. He recited it slowly and carefully, trying to mobilize the chaotic magic power around him and focus it on the wand.

In the final stage of the spell, Xing Ze gave up on absorbing magic power from the surroundings, and instead introduced his own magic power into the wand to consolidate the stability of the spell.

Click! The floor began to slowly break apart, and Reko also mobilized the magic power in his body to cast a floating spell on the two of them.

The cracks in the floor got bigger and bigger, and with a roar, a big hole appeared with Xing Ze as the center, and cement blocks and broken steel bars fell one after another.

Xing Ze put away his wand and took a long breath. Flying Sand and Rocks is an advanced blasting spell. Compared with ordinary blasting spells, it can control the range and strength better.

With the help of the floating spell, they arrived at the fifth floor of the office building. The situation here was similar to the situation upstairs. Crystal stones could be seen everywhere, and the colorful light made Xing Ze feel in a trance. He thought he was at a disco show. .

"Go this way." Reko pointed ahead, and they walked through an office hall according to the indicators.

Xing Ze lowered his head to avoid a phone line. All the phones on his desk flew up. The phone lines were intertwined, forming a strange pattern on the ceiling.

"Dreamland." Reko, who was walking in front, sighed, "This place has been invaded by dreams. Look, everything violates the laws of physics we know."

"What are these glowing crystals?" Xing Ze asked.

Reko shook his head, "I don't know. There are many types of pollution in dreams, and they have almost no rules to follow. Crystallization, corruption, rapid aging, unnatural fusion, etc.

“According to the information provided by Edwin’s grandfather, no one has studied the cause of these phenomena so far, and there are quite a lot of hypotheses.

"But what is certain is that this situation often occurs near the fusion point between dreams and the real world. I dare say that part of this office building already belongs to the dream."
