As for why the four statues would react, no one knew the exact reason!
The principle of the Sorting Hat was soul magic, and the four founders of Hogwarts had each instilled some ideas into it.
The Sorting Hat could see through the essence of the students and categorize them according to the characteristics that the four founders valued.
It was certain that the four statues did not have such magic. The founders of Ivamoni probably did not have the ability to instill ideas into the statues like the founders of Hogwarts. There was no spell in the current magic system that could have such an effect.
Therefore, in the eyes of most wizards, it was incredible that the four statues could react to the students.
People talked about it, and because of this, there was the legend of the Indian Sacred Relic …
Many wizards were curious about the internal structure of the statues, and wanted to know if the legendary Sacred Relic was inside.
However, it seemed that other than Grindelwald, no wizard had ever dared to destroy the four statues …
After observing the students of the four academies for a long time, the wizards found that they had very different characteristics. Some said that the four academies of Ivamoni were the epitome of the hearts of wizards or witches. The Long-Horned Water Snake represented wisdom, the Panther Cat represented the body, the Goblin represented the heart, and the Thunderbird represented the soul.
Some also said that the Water Snake Academy favored smart and studious students, the Panther Cat Academy worshiped warriors, the Goblin Academy was filled with kind-hearted healers, and the Thunderbird Academy was filled with adventurous people.
This difference was very obvious, which meant that the distribution of the statues to the students was not random, but according to some kind of rule.
Based on this, the Sacred Relic inside the statues might have the effect of identifying each person's inner qualities.
From this point of view, the so-called Indian Sacred Relic was indeed powerful enough to live up to its name.
Although Ivamoni had always been considered the legacy of Hogwarts in the American region, and the two magic academies had many similarities, there were still differences between Hogwarts and Ivamoni, and it was not only the Sorting Ceremony.
Unlike British wizards who bought their own wands, in Ivamoni, after the students were distributed to their respective academies, they would be led to a huge hall, where they would choose their own wands.
In other words, the wands would choose their owners.
This custom was still followed by the North American magical community until the abolition of the Rapa Potter Laws in 1965 (the famous Racial Segregation Act between Wizards and Muggle), and there were very strict regulations on confidentiality.
All young wizards were not allowed to hold a wand before going to a magic school to study.
In addition, wands were not allowed to be taken out of the school during the holidays. Only wizards who had reached the age of seventeen could legally carry wands outside of the school. This was much stricter than the secrecy laws and wand usage laws in Europe.
Of course, this law had been abolished, and Ivamoni no longer supplied them with wands.
However, the management of the students' wands had never been lax.
During the holidays, students under the age of seventeen were still required to hand in their wands, which would be managed by the school.
Another difference was that there were still many goblins working in Ivamoni and holding important positions. This was why the wizards jokingly called Ivamoni a school controlled by goblins.
It was impossible to see a fairy in Hogwarts.
However, goblins were common in Ivamoni. They were not slaves like house-elves, but administrators of the school.
Imagine the students listening to goblins while they were in school …
It sounded a little funny, but it brought a lot of benefits.
First, the American goblins were rich. Second, they were interested in all kinds of strange magic items.
They would pay for these items from the students, and would even issue missions and large orders for the students to make them.
This was also the main reason why Alchemy and Potioneering were better developed in Ivamoni.
Furthermore, the biggest effect of having a large number of goblins was that Ivamoni's underground area was getting bigger.
Even though the American goblins were smarter and wealthier than their European cousins, they still maintained their primitive habit of digging holes. Ivamoni's underground area was huge, and it expanded in all directions using the ruins left behind by the ancient Native Americans. To this day, no one had been able to fully explore it.
For safety reasons, the school prohibited students from entering.
However, just like the Forbidden Forest in Hogwarts, many students still sneaked in.
Many found treasures left behind by ancient goblins or Native Americans, and became famous because of it …
These were the details of Ivamoni. Through Paul's introduction, Elwyn was filled with anticipation for the place.
If he had the chance to study in other schools, it would be a good thing.
There was also the Carnak Magic School in Egypt. Elwyn had learned a lot about this school from Lavier. Be it the Great Pyramid of Carnak or the Mausoleum of the Gods, they both made him yearn for them.
Unfortunately, without an invitation from the school, outsiders like him were not allowed to enter.
In the past, he might have had a chance.
However, considering the current tense situation in the world of magic, it was impossible for such an application to be approved.
The study tour could be put aside for now. The most important thing now was to defeat Lord Voldemort.
This was the situation in front of Elwyn. He had to enter the Sun Ruins to find something to strengthen the time converter, and then return to Hogwarts a thousand years ago to find Ravenclaw and ask for the key to her treasure …
During the time of the International Alchemy Conference, the situation in Cairo changed again.
Gringotts, who had been troubled by the large number of alchemy magic gears in the Sun Ruins, finally began to recruit Wizards proficient in alchemy on a large scale to join the excavation team.
In addition, there were many non-official excavation teams that were also recruiting people.
Some were in partnership, and agreed that if there was a harvest, they would split it according to a certain proportion. There were also mercenaries, who paid a certain amount of gold every day to hire Alchemists to help. The price ranged from tens of gold to thousands of gold.
Although there were many Alchemists attending the conference, almost all of them were hired after half a month.
Even if not everyone wanted to dig and search for treasures, no one would not be curious about the alchemy gears left behind by Messiah II.
Since they were already in Egypt, it did not matter if they stayed for a few more days and went to the Sun Ruins to take a look.
Under such circumstances, the Wizards were all gearing up for a big fight in the Sun Ruins.
In the end, there were not many people at the main venue of the International Alchemy Conference!
The Wizards had all gone to the Sun Ruins. Lavier told Elwyn that all the Alchemists, excavation team members, and adventurers who had flocked to the Sun Ruins because of the treasure, the number of Wizards who had entered or were about to enter the Sun Ruins exceeded ten thousand. It was simply unimaginable.
Due to the large number of people, no one seemed to consider whether there was any danger.
