Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 790: The Ancient Existence

This huge city, lying deep on the dark sea floor was more precisely the ruins of a city.

As far as Evan could see, broken walls were everywhere. It seemed that there had been a big explosion in the center of the undersea city, which tore it apart. The once magnificent buildings had collapsed, leaving only stone pillars standing in the depths of the seabed to prove its former glory.

Close to the center of the city was a large pit like an abyss. There was only a piece of scorched earth in the nearby land, and all buildings no longer existed.

That was really terrible. What happened to this magical city? Why did it sink to the bottom of the sea?

Evan didn’t have time to take a closer look or to think about it. He quickly slipped off the boat, released his magic and turned back to his own appearance. He took a bunch of Gillyweed from the cloth bag and swallowed it together with the seawater. He didn’t even have time to chew it.

He gasped hard, but all he could breathe was the cold water. At that moment, Evan felt like he was going to be drowned like this.

He raised his head and looked up, trying to surface. But above it was an endless darkness. He was now deep in the sea.

Evan exhaled a series of air bubbles, his lungs seemed to be hollowed out, and his body was supported by the sea water. The cold and bitter seawater poured into his body mercilessly and merged with him.

The next second, there was a deep pain on both sides of his neck. Two slits were opened at the bottom of his ears and gills slowly grew out of them.

The sea water came out smoothly of the gills, and Evan could easily breathe the dissolved oxygen.

He gulped into the sea water and came back to life. In front of him, the big octopus squirted back a strong current, curled up and stretched quickly, pulling the sailboat to gallop away, and soon disappeared. The sea water gradually returned to calm…

In the darkness, Evan was alone, and the city below was standing silently.

With the help of Gillyweed, Evan could clearly see everything under the water.

This place was extraordinary and full of strange magic everywhere.

He breathed flat, raised his vigilance, and slowly approached the city. From afar, he saw a lot of restless souls wandering in the ruins of the city below. Like the fog floating around the ghost ship, inexplicable depression came in from all directions, squeezing him.

As Ravenclaw said, this was the realm of the dead, a veritable city of the dead.

Five minutes later, he landed on the bottom of the sea, surrounded by rocks and building ruins with water plants, corals and other shellfish.

In addition to normal natural plants, there were many amazing magical species that Evan had never seen.

The plant next to him, for instance, seemed like a blue crystal pillar. The slender rattan stems were covered with dense cylindrical leaves, floating upside down on the seafloor, rising from among the ruins and slowly floating.

Evan did not approach the plants or the dead, but explored the remote edge of the city.

The mysterious undersea city in front of him made him have too many questions, and the architectural style was also very strange. There were many places that seemed primitive and in line with the level of technological construction of the Dark Ages a thousand years ago but surprising in more details.

He swam quickly towards the central area, and within the ruins of these buildings, Evan saw exquisite and complex runes. They were set in magical purple crystals on walls and floors, with ancient magical words on the edges that he did not understand.

Evan didn’t know what these runes were for. The size of the building in front of him was astonishingly large. It seemed that the residents who used to live in the ruins were giants, or other species of the same height as the giants.

Beyond that, what surprised Evan most was the ghosts wandering around the city. They looked similar to today’s humans, and many of them were indeed ordinary people, wearing Muggle costumes.

However, there were still many wizard-like guys, some holding wands, others holding long staves.

Although Evan tried to stay as far away as possible, after seeing him, the ghosts rushed up without exception and attacked him.

The ghosts of wizards could even use magic to cast green light with their wands.

Limited by the weird magic within the ruins, Evan could now only use Dark magic to fight back. The effect was amazing, soul-type spells could easily defeat these ghosts, but this kind of fight was meaningless and endless.

In the end, Evan had to use the pendant on his wrist to change back into a ghostly owl, and those guys stopped attacking him.

The big octopus had dragged the sailboat and he didn’t know where it had gone. He moved slowly forward alone in the ruins.

The inexplicable sense of depression and loneliness was getting stronger and stronger. He wanted to find valuable clues, and then know the name of the city, and know what had happened here, but the original explosion was completely devastating, and thousands of years had erased everything.

There was nothing left in the city but the uncommunicative ghosts and the ubiquitous ruins.

This was not the way to go on. Evan rose again and looked down at the city below.

Suddenly, a black ripple flashed, and he quickly turned his head to see the Harbinger of Doom appear in the center of the city, standing on the edge of the abyss.

He was alone in that place, and he took out the energy stone full of the Cyclops’s power.

“Has the summoning started?” Evan whispered.

He had been there before, near the core of the explosion, and there was nothing but the terrible pit. But in the blink of an eye, with the action of the Harbinger of Doom, a transparent figure emerged from the abyss, getting bigger and bigger…

It was a strange creature that could not be described in words. If it was to be described, it was a monster with stacked layers of expanded water patterns. Its body was full of waves, and it was holding a large disproportionate stone sword.

“Hahaha, huge power is calling me!”

A quaint voice sounded, a powerful force came, and a cyan flash appeared in the ruins on the other side of the city, like a magical barrier, trying to press back the virtual shadow of the monster in the abyss, but it did not last long and soon broke apart.

With the sound of the broken mirror, there was silence again.

“Is this the magic that Ionian Wizards were proud of?! This is ridiculous, the old seal has loosened, and I will escape the cage of time!” The monster ghost waved his arms and roared, “I am back, the abyss will devour you! Welcome the end, stupid on the ground! “

Evan looked at the monster summoned in the distance, thought about it, and swam to the ruins where the blue light had just appeared.
