"I still think it's not very nice of us to send Merlin back to the fourth century and then leave." Harry used all his strength to press on the control stick.
His ears were filled with the roar of machines.
So much so that he had to shout and speak. "It's like … burning the bridge after crossing the river … getting rid of the donkey after it has outlived its usefulness …"
Don't compare Merlin to a donkey! Snape was basically lying on the other side of the console in the same position.
But she still glared at Harry. Besides, they didn't use Merlin at all.
After waking up from Shakespeare's time,
Harry and Snape then sent Merlin back to the 'scam spot'.
At the Avalon lakeside, the good-tempered Merlin did not raise any objections. Instead, he asked gently, "Is there anything I can help you with?" Obviously, he could tell that the Tadis duo was not traveling aimlessly.
Harry was so touched that he wanted to tell her everything and beg her to bring him along.
Thinking about the possible space-time paradox, he gritted his teeth and didn't say anything. Merlin was considerate and didn't ask any more questions.
He only wished the two of them a safe journey.
Snape asked about Merlin's future plans.
The young Merlin was silent for a moment.
His gaze kept drifting towards the small island that was faintly discernible in the lake.
In the end, he said softly, "I will probably continue to travel for a while and then return to Avalon to settle down."
Thinking of Merlin standing alone by the endless lake and watching Tadis leave, Harry felt guilty and was dragged out for a walk for no reason.
He didn't eat or sleep well.
He didn't even know their real names. "Professor, do you still remember the chapter about Merlin in the history of magic? What was his experience from his youth to his old age? "
Snape stared at the timeline.
He casually answered a few words.
Harry didn't hear it clearly.
He wanted to lean over and ask another question.
Snape's expression changed. He turned around and shouted at him, "Potter! Hold it down! "
The needle on the time axis steadily slid past 1200 years before it started to shake, rapidly approaching the preset year. The noise in the Tadis also became more and more alarming. According to his driving experience, this was because they were about to reach their destination. Moreover, if there were no accidents —
The Tadis fell to the ground with a bang, and the two people inside were dizzy. Harry covered the big bump on his head and got up. He looked out of the window and found that they had stopped by a big lake. The lake was vast and boundless, and this time, no one came to scam him.
Harry breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around and was about to help Snape up when he heard a loud bang, as if something had hit the door. It sounded a bit like a stone. Of course, Hank and the others used titanium alloy to make the Tadis, so they were not afraid of being hit by stones. The problem was that Harry immediately felt a wave of magic hitting the door. Fortunately, he had already set up defensive spells everywhere, and the offensive magic was easily neutralized.
At this time, Snape also stood up. He first turned around and glanced at the operation panel: 1000 years.
"Potter, do you know what this means?"
1000 AD? Harry covered his head, still a little dizzy. He only knew that England was not peaceful now, but "William the Conqueror" had not yet arrived, and the Hundred Years War was still early. If there was anything special, it would be that the police could celebrate their birthday …
"Idiot …" Snape's temples began to tighten again. "Your magic history might have been learned in Black's stomach."
Harry reacted for a moment and realized: First, the "Black" that Snape mentioned could basically refer to a certain animal. Second, if it was now 1000 AD, then it meant that … Hogwarts had already been established?
After half a day, the voices of people outside the Tadis came in. It seemed to be a group of children.
A clear voice was calling for friends. "… This door can't be broken!" It seemed to be the one who tried to break in.
Then a girl said slowly, "… There's a defensive spell."
A somewhat gloomy male voice said, "Enemy."
The girl chuckled. "Don't be so nervous … Maybe it's a new weapon developed by the dean?"
The boy who broke the door said, "Eh? Where's Charlie? "
Harry grimaced and pointed to the window. A round-faced boy was leaning against the window and looking inside! After seeing the scene inside, the round-faced boy slowly waved to his friends. "There's … someone inside …"
In the blink of an eye, three other heads squeezed in. Through the window, Harry could clearly see four different faces.
After a moment of shock, Harry subconsciously looked at Snape and saw that the Potions Professor's body had stiffened.
Regardless of what was going on inside, the children outside were already trying to break the window. Harry saw that their efforts were not going to work, so he left the muttering Snape and went forward. He knocked on the window and asked, "Which academy are you from?"
The four children: Σ (

"They can talk!"
"Nonsense, of course they can talk."
"Are they even human …"
The red-haired girl did not join in the commotion like the boys. She looked at Harry with interest for a while and asked, "What about you?"
I've been in all four academies. Harry carefully looked into the girl's eyes and smiled. "I'm from Hogwarts."
The girl laughed, startling her companions. The dark-eyed, dark-haired boy gave Harry a particularly unfriendly look.
In the end, the girl answered, "Ravenclaw."
It was not Gryffindor. Harry was slightly surprised. He asked again, "Are any of you from Slytherin Academy?"
The four children's expressions changed slightly. They looked at each other for a while, and after some guessing, pushed out the dark-eyed boy to talk to Harry. "Who are you?"
"I want to see Salazar Slytherin." Harry felt that there was no need to beat around the bush with Slytherin. Otherwise, he would definitely be tricked by them.
"You didn't answer the question." The Slytherin boy looked at him gloomily. "Don't hide in the box. Come out and talk."
"Yes! Come out and talk! "The dark-haired, blue-eyed boy agreed.
It was not impossible for them to go out. Harry thought that these children looked to be around thirteen or fourteen years old. Although he did not know how strong they were, it should not be too difficult for Harry to protect himself. The difficult part was that he did not want to complicate matters, and he did not want to fight with someone who might be his ancestor.
At this time, Snape walked over and faced the Slytherin boy. The two of them looked at each other for a while, and then Snape asked, "Salazar Slytherin left?"
Slytherin was speechless.
Harry also remembered that not long after the establishment of the academy, Slytherin left Hogwarts because of a conflict with the other three leaders.
This was a bit of a pity. In Harry's memory, Slytherin's attainment in space-time magic was quite high. This time, they came specially to see the ancestor of Slytherin.
"Is Dean Royna Ravenclaw here?" Of course, Madam Ravenclaw's level was also very high. It was good to see her.
The red-haired girl had a strange look on her face. "Who are you?"
The dark-haired, blue-eyed boy crossed his arms and frowned. "Our dean is not someone you can meet just because you want to."
The students in the early days of the school were all brought up by the Big Four, and they were all very respectful to them. Now that Harry had specifically asked for an audience, it caused a few of the children to be vigilant.
"Dean … Dean …" The round-faced boy pulled his companions back, as if to avoid conflict.
Harry hurriedly explained, "We don't mean any harm. We just came because of your reputation and wanted to ask for some advice."
"Then why don't you dare come out?" The dark-haired, dark-eyed boy rolled his eyes.
"I …" Harry scratched his head and had an idea. "It's not that I don't dare, it's that I can't. You see, it's because we're trapped in this blue box that we want to ask for your dean's help to get us out … "
The corner of Snape's mouth twitched. He decided that in the future, he would only believe half of what Potter said.
The four children looked at Harry's sincere face and looked at each other. Finally, the red-haired girl asked, "That's it?"
"That's it!" Harry continued to be sincere.
"That's quite simple!" The front door of Tadis was kicked open with a bang. A slender man stepped in and looked around. He then said to Harry and Snape, "Also, this is the only time someone would rather ask Salazar for help than me."
Harry looked at the blond man who was dressed in medieval attire, cloak, and sword. He asked in a trembling voice, "You are?"
