"The Temple of Time?!" Elwyn continued to read, and the ancient magic words on the slate became more and more illegible.
"Visitor, if you want to banish that horrible creature again, bring this slate to the temple. The magic left in it will help you.
Remember, greed and ignorance destroyed this city, and the sorcerers of Aoinia will never be forgiven for their crimes.
When you want to take a shortcut to obtain power beyond your imagination, it often means that you are one step closer to death and destruction.
I witnessed the destruction of this city with my own eyes, but nothing could stop it …
That was the end of the words on the slate. There were still many things that Elwyn did not understand.
There was a magic aura on this glowing slate that he did not understand. According to what was written on it, as long as he brought it to the Temple of Time, he could banish the horrible creature that was descending from outside. This magic power was too powerful. Also, where was the so-called Temple of Time?!
Elwyn read the information on the slate again, and he was sure that the temple was not in this sunken city.
Then, he thought of the sea map left by Raven's Claw in the lighthouse, which was about the ancient ruins inside the Great Whirlpool of Charybdis.
The description seemed to mention Ravenclaw and time. The Temple of Time might be in that place …
Elwyn put the slate away and searched for something related to time in his mind.
To be honest, he did not know much about time magic. It was a very unpopular branch of magic.
For a long time, sorcerers used the time converter to travel back to the past and the future.
They could change history to a certain extent, but they had to be prepared to pay a heavy price and be prepared to lose all of their understanding.
In time travel, it was possible to change something insignificant, and everything that you knew would be turned upside down.
The things that should have happened did not happen, the people that should have been born were not born, and the people that should have died were not dead …
After the trip ended and returned to the correct time, the people around him might be different.
In the past three years, Elwyn had traveled back in time many times. In the second half of his second year, he and Hermione used the time converter countless times to go back in time and read all the magic books he could find. Sometimes, he secretly used it at night to learn black magic.
In the Sirius incident, Elwyn used the time converter to go back a few hours and successfully captured Dwarf Peter, rescued him from the eight-eyed spider, changed history and the plot, and cleared Sirius' name.
However, the most bizarre experience for Elwyn was that he used the time converter left by Rowena Ravenclaw to go back a thousand years to Hogwarts. He saw Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin with his own eyes.
At that time, after listening to Elwyn's description of Lord Voldemort, they decided to leave a secret treasure in the school.
Elwyn did not know what was inside. So far, he had only obtained Gryffindor's key. He still lacked the other three founders' keys.
The complexity of this matter was definitely beyond his imagination. It was not as simple as leaving behind a treasure.
After that trip, Elwyn was quickly embroiled in one big trouble after another. Evil Gods, Vampires, Nightmares, and so on appeared one after another. The familiar plot became even more complicated, and even changed beyond recognition.
In his own words, it was a complete collapse of his worldview. Ancient and powerful existences and magic appeared one after another.
Elwyn did not understand it at first, and tried his best to keep the plot developing in the familiar direction. But as his understanding of magic deepened, he gradually understood the root of everything. He knew why many things became so complicated. It was because he changed time.
Just like how he saved Sirius, the subsequent series of events changed. From the moment he returned to a thousand years ago, or the moment he entered the Hogwarts, history had entered a new timeline.
Although he had not yet obtained the secret treasure, the test of the Four Magnates had long begun.
Unknowingly, Elwyn became more and more involved with these unknown secrets and the so-called evil gods. The world had changed.
This was the dangerous part of time magic. One could not use simple thinking to infer the impact of a certain change on time.
Of course, it was not bad to use the time converter like Hermione to go back to the past for classes, reading, and learning magic.
This gave the user two times, three times, or even more time than others. As long as they were not seen by themselves at that time, as long as their body and spirit could withstand it, they could learn repeatedly.
Because of the characteristics of time magic, in order to prevent accidents, all existing time converters were strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic and kept in the custody of the Department of Mysterious Things. They could only be obtained after many layers of application, and the process of use must be reported regularly.
After all, no one wanted to disappear so inexplicably. This kind of magic was simply too terrible.
Like the Sorcerer's Stone, all existing time converters were left behind from the Ancient Warlock period.
The current Wizards did not have the ability to make such powerful magic tools at all, and the Ministry of Magic had not made much progress after hundreds of years of research.
The only Wizard that Elwyn knew who was proficient in time magic was Rowena Ravenclaw, and the time converter she left behind also had extraordinary magic.
Unfortunately, when Elwyn returned from a thousand years ago, he did not bring back the time converter.
It might now be kept in the Ministry of Magic. After all, all the time converters were there …
Elwyn swam quickly through the ruins at the bottom of the sea, looking for a way to go back. He could not help but wonder if Ravenclaw had obtained the ability to make time converters there, since there was a temple of time inside the Great Maelstrom of Charybdis.
Then, he thought of the former Wizards of this city.
They actually had the ability to use time to banish that terrible monster. What kind of magic was this? It was much more complicated than simply using time converters …
A few minutes later, in the dim sea, Elwyn saw the ghost ship glowing with green light not far in front of him.
Like the other ghosts in the ruins, because of the sudden appearance of the monster shadow, the souls on the ship were also very panicked and wanted to escape.
With their ability, they could not stop the messenger of disaster. If they continued to stay here, they would become part of the summoning ritual.
