0114 The Staff and The Sword (Part-1)
Bryan suddenly turned his head, staring at Godric Gryffindor, who raised his silver sword and faced the time domain, with an incredible look. His heart was pounding wildly and every cell in his body was trembling! How could it be, did he just hear a hallucination?! He felt a chill run down his spine as he realized that the voice he heard was not his own, but Gryffindor's!
Bryan looked around with a frightened look, scanning every inch of the slightly dim temple, but after a few rounds of inspection, he found no trace of any hidden wizards. In the dilapidated room, apart from him and Gryffindor, there was no one else. No one else who could have spoken to him in such a familiar and intimate tone.
"Did you just talk to me, Mr. Gryffindor?"
He asked in a shaky voice, hoping for an answer that would dispel his confusion. But to Bryan's dismay, Godric Gryffindor, who had shattered his worldview, suddenly returned to his previous appearance, ignoring Bryan's repeated calls, but holding the sword hilt with both hands, raising the silver sword and not moving, as if observing the time domain in front of him with great concentration.
"What's going on?"
Bryan muttered breathlessly, "Could it be that Gryffindor was accompanied by someone a thousand years ago, and he was just talking to his companion? But the person's strength is far inferior to Gryffindor's, and not enough to interfere with the sequence. No, along the way, Gryffindor never had a conversation with anyone, it can't be like this."
Bryan's current knowledge base was already unable to come up with a reasonable explanation. He stared blankly at Gryffindor's back and suddenly felt at a loss. He felt like he had stumbled into a mystery that was beyond his comprehension.
Swish! Just as he hesitated, the silver sword in Gryffindor's hand suddenly bloomed with light. The straight and sharp silver sword body was wrapped by a transparent, water-like magic force. It was a strange power that Bryan could not understand, but even across the river of time, it still gave him a feeling of horror. It was like a force that could cut through anything in existence.
For Gryffindor, dealing with such a strong time turbulence was still not an easy and casual thing. It was like cutting meat with a blunt knife, or cutting wood with a rusty saw with serrated teeth. The sword body moved slowly and hard. The effort made Bryan hold his breath!
But anyway, Gryffindor really cut out a few feet of 'clear space' in the distorted and blurred space. Then he stepped into the edge of the area that was originally covered by the time domain and raised his long sword again.
And in Bryan's vision, when Gryffindor stepped into the time domain, the Gryffindor that had existed since entering the secret realm disappeared. Only he was left alone, looking at the suddenly 'flat' area in a daze.
"Is it Gryffindor who appeared in the modern wizarding world, or did I unknowingly go back to a thousand years ago?"
Neither situation is possible. This is just Bryan's random guess in extreme astonishment.
Gurgle——
Like a vast ocean, but also exuding a hellish breath, Bryan's heart beat wildly, swallowing saliva unconsciously.
If there really are 'artifacts' in Harry Potter's magical world, then there is no doubt that Caduceus is one of them. His eyes were attracted by the two intertwined black pythons on a golden staff. He had forgotten to think about why this 'artifact' appeared in Morgan Le Fay's hands inexplicably, and how it became the 'holy artifact' of the Druid sect!
"Wow, interesting staff!"
Compared to Bryan's dullness, Gryffindor looked calm with a smile. He walked onto the altar and circled around Caduceus. He examined it with curiosity and admiration, as if he had found a new toy.
"I think Salazar will love you very much!"
After saying this sentence, Gryffindor suddenly reached out to Caduceus. It seemed that he wanted to take this staff back and give it to his best friend.
But at the moment he heard this sentence, Bryan's body trembled violently.
He stared at the two black pythons with wide eyes. The more he looked at them, the more familiar they became. The more he looked at them, the more shocked he became. In the end, he was almost sure of his discovery-those two things wrapped around the golden staff were not pythons at all, but two miniaturized Basilisks!
Bryan had just dealt with a very real Basilisk a few months ago, in Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets! He still remembered its terrifying gaze that could petrify or kill anyone who met its eyes, and its venomous fangs that could destroy any magic.
Thinking of the Chamber of Secrets, Bryan suddenly clenched his wand and moved his dry lips.
"Could it be that Slytherin built the Chamber of Secrets to cultivate Basilisks and study Caduceus? It wasn't to deal with those little wizards with muggle blood!"
He whispered in disbelief, as if he had uncovered a shocking truth that had been hidden for centuries.
