With the magic door opened, Levin's last obstacle to the scholar moonstone was lifted.

The two of them walked towards the corridor behind the gate.

As soon as he entered the door, Levin noticed something extraordinary about this place.

The underground palace and tunnels in front should have been dug manually.

The surrounding walls are paved with artificial stone bricks and slates.

But this corridor is a natural road,

On both sides of the road are two natural stone walls.

The entire corridor should essentially be a "rift valley" hidden in the mountain.

The rift valley is very long and deep,

The last section is even covered with water and seems to be part of an underground vein.

The two of them followed the rift valley all the way to the end,

Then Levin understood what it meant to be "there is no way out despite the mountains and rivers, and there is another village with bright flowers and dark willows".

In short, it is "very narrow at first, but only then can you understand others."

"Repeat hundreds of times, suddenly become enlightened"

But what he saw was not a humanistic village with "flat land and scattered houses".

Rather, it is a vibrant natural scenery hidden in a cave.

"I never expected that such a beautiful place would be hidden deep in the ruins of "053"."

The moment she saw this cave, Tonks was attracted by the scenery here.

No, this should not be called a cave, but a valley.

The moonlight shines along the huge crack at the top of this pure land in the mountain,

Rivers formed by groundwater flow through it, and lush plants grow beside the rivers and even on the mountain walls.

Lily of the valley, lily of the valley, and various flowers are dotted among the herbs and shrubs, and creepers and other vines are scattered all over the rock walls.

But the most eye-catching thing is the huge oak tree growing on a small slope in the center of the valley.

Under the silver moonlight, this ancient and huge tree stretches out its branches, birds are lingering on the crown of the tree, and insects and moths are flying around the roots of the tree.

It looks exceptionally harmonious and peaceful.

“The ecosystem hidden deep in the cave is interesting.

Levin observed the surrounding scene and nodded repeatedly,

"No wonder the ancients chose this place to store the Wise Moon Stone. This is indeed the best proof of natural vitality.

"Do you know who built this place?" Tonks asked curiously.

"Of course," Levin nodded, "the history here may be older than you think."

"The first people to discover this valley and build this ruins should be the ancestors of this land, the Gu Celts.

Whether it is the style of the reliefs in the ruins or this paradise in the mountains, all evidence illustrates this point.

In the ancient Celtic times, wizards were not called wizards.

What people believed in at that time should be called "Druidism".

This group of people can be regarded as the ancestors of wizards.

Many of the traditions of today's Muggle and wizarding world in Yin are inherited from that era.

A typical example is the 13 months of the year in the Celtic calendar, and the trees corresponding to each month.

To this day, Ollivander still selects wand wood based on this tradition, and chooses the owner for the wand accordingly.

The original meaning of the word Druid is "one who is familiar with oak trees". Or it can be translated as "Oak Sage"

They worship and respect nature,

And the oak tree, no surprise, is their sacred tree.

This is why there is an oak tree in this mountain col.

This ruins should be a holy place for spiritual practice and gathering of ancient Celtic druids.

This oak tree is the centerpiece of this sacred place,

The Scholar Moonstone is a treasure enshrined by the Druids.

After admiring the scenery here, Levin walked forward and came to the oak tree.

In a huge tree hole on the tree trunk, a crystal blue-green ball exudes a faint blue light.

This is exactly the goal that poachers and Levin share:

Scholar Moonstone.

Levin grabbed the Scholar Moonstone in his hand,

Feel a wonderful power,

This power is gentle and peaceful, and has a strange connection with the bright moon in the sky and the surrounding nature.

If it can be channeled, it seems that it can produce many incredible effects.

"It is truly a treasure of the Druid religion."

As Tonks watched, Levin pocketed it.

After completing all this, Levin asked the female Auror beside him: "Sister Tonks, you won't tell the secrets here, will you?"

"Of course not, since you call me Sister Tonks, I naturally have to help you keep the secret.

Tonks shook her head,

"When the time comes, I will tell the Ministry of Magic that I discovered this group of poachers in the mountains and forests outside Irondale, and I was lucky enough to annihilate them all."

"As for why they came here, I have no idea."

"Thank you so much, Sister Tonks." Levin said with satisfaction. ,

Tonks shook her head: "Actually, I am the one who should be grateful. It was you who rescued me from imprisonment, and it was also your credit for solving most of these poachers. I just helped you.

"Don't say that. Without you, I wouldn't be able to defeat Picol Curtis alone." Levin retorted. "Besides, you used the Forgetting Curse on them for me, and you concealed my existence for me, and concealed the secret of Scholar Moonstone. You have done so many things for me, hiding it from the Ministry of Magic, and I can't bear to do all of this." In mind."

"But you are the main contributor, that's for sure." Tonks continued, "It stands to reason that you can at least get a second-class Merlin Order this time... But now all these contributions are taken by me alone. Take it all... This is what I owe you."

"Don't say that," Levin waved his hand, "Which one of us is fighting which one?"

"You're right, one of us is against the other." Tonks also showed a warm smile.

She paused and then said: "As for your desire to hide yourself, I actually think you did the right thing. As a first-year student at Hogwarts, it is not a problem to excel in your studies, but those of you When it comes to creating magic, especially when you are involved in killing a dark wizard, it is best to hide it. It won't be a problem to reveal it again in a few years... You may have noticed that some people are more sensitive to this kind of thing. ......."

"It's okay, Tonks, I understand...it's easy to be reminded of the mysterious person when he was young!" Levin heard the other party's implication and was very grateful for her concern, "Don't worry, Tonks. , I will be cautious.”

After helping Tonks deal with the prisoners and evidence, the two said goodbye in Irondale.

Levin followed the Floo back to the Leaky Cauldron.

Tonks returned to the Ministry of Magic and asked for support to complete the finishing work.

Lying on the bed in the single room of the Leaky Cauldron, the comfortable bed gradually relaxed Levin's tense nerves, and he began to summarize what he had gained from this mission:

First of all, there are two trophies of course. The gryphon beak is the main material of [Eternal Eagle Majesty Elixir], and now I have it.

As long as other medicinal materials are obtained, the production of [Eternal Eagle's Majesty Elixir] can begin.

It seems that I will have to go to the Forbidden Forest in the second half of the semester.

I clearly promised not to cause trouble as much as possible,

It can only be said that plans cannot keep up with changes.

The second trophy is the Scholar Moon Stone.

This treasure was indeed mysterious and precious, but he didn't know what to do with it in a short period of time.

But it’s better than falling into the hands of poachers.

The second is the monetary gain.

I only got 700 galleons from selling second-hand items before.

This was prepared in his spare time during half a semester.

And from the poachers, he got nearly a thousand galleons in one night.

Plus the remaining 700 galleons,

Now his assets have reached 1,500 Galleons.

This is already a considerable asset.

3.8 I heard from Tonks that the salary of an Auror is only 140 Galleons per month. As a trainee Auror, her salary is slightly lower, only 100 Galleons.

This is a high salary that can only be found in dangerous professions.

Most Ministry of Magic staff earn only 100 galleons a month.

Levin's money is almost equivalent to the Weasley family's annual income.

Although in Gringotts, Muggle wizards can exchange money at an exchange rate of 5 pounds to 1 galleons,

But this exchange rate is only a benefit for Muggle wizards.

In real terms, the purchasing power gap between pounds and galleons is 20:1.

1,500 galleons is almost 30,000 pounds, or 300,000 yuan.

That was 300,000 yuan in the 1990s, which could buy three houses in the Fourth Ring Road of Beijing.

With such a large amount of money in hand, I will definitely be able to live a much more comfortable life in the magical world in the future.

With this thought, Levin gradually fell into sleep.
