Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 786: The Lighthouse

Dark red magma gushed into the rolling black smoke, the loud rumble sounded from all sides, and the burning red rocks were pushed high into the air and fell quickly, leaving thousands of red flaming scratches in the  smoke screen.

The gushing magma swallowed up the land, and the black smoke filled the sky, which became turbid.

At this moment, most of Sicily was shrouded in thick smoke and dark clouds. It was like the end of the world.

Although the process was not perfect, Evan had largely completed the commission of Gryffindor’s thought.

The Cyclops and the Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw would be buried in the cave deep in the core of the earth. No one would be able to come out and no one would be able to find them. Digging a collapsed cave thousands of feet underground was almost impossible.

Evan gasped, looking at the scabbard of Gryffindor’s sword in his hand.

It was still stained with the golden blood of the Cyclops, but its power gradually returned to calm, and the strange magic did not continue to flow.

Apart from the occasional sprinkling of terror, it was like a normal scabbard, old and ordinary.

The power of the Cyclops and the seal magic left by Ravenclaw had reached a delicate balance.

Before he could completely suppress the power of the Cyclops, Evan thought it was better not to destroy the balance for the time being.

“Evan, are you okay?” said Sirius, looking at the erupting volcano in the distance.

“I’m fine … just a little skin injury … just a simple treatment!” Evan lowered his head and saw his arms and body bleeding in many places.

He took out Dittany and dripped it on them one by one. The wounds coagulated instantly.

Dittany was a potion for traumatic injuries. It was particularly effective in treating moderate wounds.

Evan’s wounds and bruises were caused by the Cyclops throwing him around, as well as a large number of rocks falling. The worst thing was that he finally resisted the attack of the monster that the Dark wizard of Raven’s Claw turned into. Even with the protection of the shield, Evan was still sore all over and had the feeling that his bones would fall apart.

That horrible, mysterious Dark magic could merge the power of the wizard and the shadow energy to make a monster, which was really terrible…

This was the gift of the evil god, beyond the ordinary sense of evil Dark magic.

Evan was not confident he could defeat that monster if they met again. He’ll go back and look through magical books to see if there was any way to counter it.

“The Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw can’t run away, and they’ll all stay there to be buried with the Cyclops,” said Sirius, looking back at Evan. He squatted down to help him deal with the wounds. “What are you going to do next?”

The scene of Evan inserting the crimson scabbard like lightning into the eye of the Cyclops was still frozen in his mind.

He had already guessed Evan’s answer. If he hadn’t hesitated to stop Evan before that, he would have written to Dumbledore about the situation here, the mysterious, powerful Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw, and how strong the Harbinger of Doom might be.

After all, he was the last husband of Natalia, the dangerous Dark witch of the same age as Dumbledore.

But now Sirius was going to support Evan, although he knew it was dangerous. Only through facing the danger could the strength of a wizard be improved rapidly.

Looking at the growing Evan in front of him, Sirius couldn’t help but think he should add some experience to Harry after returning.

“The matter of the giants is not urgent. Let Hagrid and Madame Maxime gather them first. I have a better idea to get rid of the giants and those Death Eaters once and for all. What needs to be dealt with now is the ancient existence that the Harbinger of Doom is about to summon. We’ll both go to the lighthouse by the sea to see what we may find,” Evan mused, remembering his vision in Ravenclaw’s memory. “They may be looking for a ship. I have some clues about their magical city that sank at the bottom of the sea. I may have to board a ghost ship full of the dead to get there…”

Evan recounted the situation, and after a short repair, he and Sirius Apparated to the seaside again.

In front of them was a majestic old lighthouse towering above a rocky cliff by the sea. It was located in the Northern Cape of Sicily. In front of Evan and Sirius, there was an endless blue sea with the sky and sea level intertwined. This was the famous Strait of Messina, overlooking the Italian peninsula.

The door of the lighthouse was a heavy iron gate, rusted by the sea breeze.

At the corner of the door, thick wires could be seen exposed outside the blue bricks. This lighthouse was jointly managed by Muggles and wizards.

At night, it would use electricity to emit strong light to navigate the passing ships.

The rumor lights had been treated with special magic. While guiding the way, they could protect the ships from the magical visions on the Strait of Messina, such as Sirens, the Great Whirlpool, and the horrifying ghost ship.

After the Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw extinguished the lighthouse, these ancient magical visions reappeared…

Sirius pushed open the iron door, which made a heartbreaking creak.

Similarly, the rusty system staircase spiraled up, and the gaps between the ruined stairs on both sides were hollowed out.

For someone acrophobic like Evan, walking on it was a tough challenge.

With the sound of the waves beating against the rocks, he and Sirius walked into the lighthouse with their wands straight up.

Despite the light footsteps, the collision between the soles and the stairs still gave a terrible echo.

Evan had a feeling that this decaying lighthouse seemed to have been changed into a terrible monster. The two of them were walking into its mouth, and the stairs under them were not so reassuring, as though they were about to collapse.

The only good thing was that they did not meet the Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw, and there was no one in the lighthouse.

However, this was not good news. If no clue could be found here, then they couldn’t know where the city the Harbinger of Doom was going to was.

Before making sure, Evan couldn’t come across the ghost ship in the sea, and board it blindly.

When they got to the top of the lighthouse, the sky began to dim.

This was a place similar to a castle tower, with a square room inside, dark and opaque.

With the light of his wand, Evan touched the power switch, and nothing happened.

Sirius opened the door to the outside, and they could see the stars hanging in the dusk sky, and the volcano still erupting in the distance. The smoke column mixed with volcanic ash continued to rise, and the red magma was flowing down the hillside.

“No one’s here, those guys may …” Sirius suddenly stopped.

Disappearing with the sound was the light at the end of the two wands, shrouded in disturbing darkness.
