Chapter 679 Molten City
Meguffin is an ancient magic city.
No, neither can it be called a city,
It completely lacks the functions and structures that a city should have, and there is no area for ordinary people to live, live and work at all.
It can only be said to be a fortress with a very strange shape.
The strip-shaped, [-]-meter-high three-section city wall forms the outermost layer of the triangle.
Inside the triangular city wall, there are three round walls.
They are equal in size, nested with each other, and closely connected, firmly surrounding three volcanoes with [lava flows] constantly flowing.
In general, it is a huge triangle with three identical circles nested inside, and within that circle... a volcano is located in each.
And McGuffin and the others are standing on the mountainside of one of the volcanoes, at the entrance of a certain rock wall here.
There is a narrow passage at the exit here, a path composed of pieces of red granite connected out of thin air.It is connected with the arc-shaped inner wall.
rumble!
A loud crashing sound suddenly came out.
Both he and Black turned their heads stiffly and looked aside.
——Like the other two volcanoes, at a distance of about ten meters beside them... a lava flow slowly flowed down from the top of the mountain along the black-red dented tunnel.
And in some places farther away, some strange devices with iron chains and indescribable shapes (gears and balls, huge hammers and giant axes colliding back and forth)... were impacted by a huge lava waterfall,
Make a deafening noise.
"follow me……"
"Professor Dumbledore... I think he will be looking forward to your arrival."
Mr. Weasley placed the golden candle on a small square platform obliquely below the left side of the hole.
There are traces of melting candles all over it, and there are stubbles of unburned candles everywhere... It seems that many people came to this strange city through this passage.
McGuffin and Blake subconsciously followed Mr. Weasley and set foot on the stone road.
After walking two steps, after seeing clearly the bottom of the stone path...there are continuous flowing lava rivers, McGuffin's legs are a little weak and he can't walk.
——What if it just fell like this?
The MacGuffin hastily drew out his wand and got ready.
At this time, Sirius rushed to Arthur, broke the silence, and asked in a deep voice, "Arthur... all of this... really built by you?"
He pointed to the front... Those city walls like skyscrapers asked.
"No, these are...the original relics of the old world,...we just found it, and then restarted it...to restore its original function..."
Before Black could ask further, there was another dull bang.
- Boom!
- Boom!
There was a sudden tremor on the entire narrow stone platform.
McGuffin and the others looked in the direction of the sound.
The lava flows hanging from the three volcanoes flow slowly to the foot of the mountain.
Lava waterfalls converged into rivers of lava, which passed through the huge circular hole under the city wall and flowed to the desolate black-red plain outside.
Under those walls...holes, gate-like places,
As if turning into a guillotine, the stone gate that was originally floating kept being smashed down heavily, and then slowly floated up again.
The ever-flowing lava river was smashed intermittently,
Sparks and flames splashed and scuttled near the rock walls at the entrance of the city walls, and the scene was very magnificent.
And the dilapidated temples, statues, and strange devices standing on the three volcanoes are all bathed in the bright red light emitted by the lava waterfall, shining brightly.
On the mountain and below the mountain, there are the same but different unique scenery, which complement each other and compete for eye-catching.
"Oh, forgot..." Mr. Weasley turned suddenly to the McGuffins and said,
"Welcome...Albert, Blake...Welcome to [Molten City]!"
"Molten City?"
McGuffin murmured and repeated.
But Mr. Weasley was clearly not in the mood to be a tour guide, explaining to them what to do with the city.
For some reason, since he came here... No, since the three of them just met, he has been a little taciturn.
The three continued on.
Soon, they came to the curved inner city wall.
The aisle above the city wall is so wide that almost dozens of trucks can drive side by side.
On both sides of the edge, every few tens of feet, stood a huge stone statue.
About ten meters high,
There are soldiers wearing armor and holding spears; giants with curved horns; fire dragons, phoenixes...; all kinds of monsters with human bodies, bird heads, and wolf faces...
These statues are alive, with two huge bright red stones inlaid in their eye sockets.
Every few tens of meters, there is a sculpture that is particularly tall, several times larger than the others... At the top of it... a crown on the head, or some weapons, there will be a platform for soldiers to be stationed.
Some nondescript Muggle soldiers and a small number of wizards were stationed there.
They were confused and stood on the stone statue wearily.
All of them are bodybuilding champions.
It was bulging, and the crude robe she was wearing was almost torn apart.
And holding a very strange weapon in his hand.
McGuffin stared straight at a Muggle soldier.
One of the guy's entire arms disappeared, replaced by a giant Gatling fused with machinery and flesh.
This--
Cyber machinery?Flesh soaring?
Gatling was wrapped with blood vessels as thick as arms, spreading out... straight into his shoulder.
Those umbilical cords are constantly agitating and expanding, as if injecting energy into Gatling, like bullets.
This style of painting——
Compared to what Voldemort did...it's no different.
And there are many similar things... Almost every Muggle soldier has more or less traces of being transformed.
Some machines are deeply integrated into a part of their bodies in a flesh-and-blood configuration.
MacGuffin and Blake watch carefully... these cult scenes.
After looking at each other, they both tightly held their wands in their hands.
Although the two didn't discuss it, they both wondered if the strange Arthur Weasley in front of him was really him?
In other words, his own thoughts...whether he still has independent consciousness, doubts whether he has been controlled by the Imperius Curse.
After passing through the inner circular city wall, McGuffin and the others walked along the wider and huge outer triangular city wall... until they reached the end of this section of the city wall. (There are more soldiers stationed on this section of the city wall, which is more exaggerated)
There is a new tower here that does not belong to the architectural style here.
"Okay, this is it..."
"You go up...you can see Professor Dumbledore!" Mr. Weasley stopped.
He obviously didn't go in with the two of them.
After taking a deep breath, McGuffin followed Black into the tower.
Stepping inside, he looked around.
It's no different from a normal tower at Hogwarts.
Just taller, deeper, and darker.
Hanging on the walls are no longer those moving magic portraits, but pendulums... There are also some hourglasses of different sizes and shapes.
Soon, McGuffin recognized what the hourglass was—
Time Turner! !
What is this?
Feeling uneasy, the two stepped up the spiral staircase and kept going up until they reached the top of the roof.
This is a barren platform.
Apart from the big black and red stone platform, there is only a big bronze clock floating in the air, and a person stands beside the big clock, looking at the desolate plain in the distance.
Dumbledore?
Do not--
How can it be!
Although Arthur Weasley was absolutely sure that Albus Dumbledore was here.
But the person in front of McGuffin and Black was not that old fox at all.
He was not much bigger than Hagrid in stature.
The muscles are tangled and developed, and the thick arms can almost crush McGuffin himself easily.
Standing in front of the whole person, it gives people a feeling that they can fight the troll with bare hands without using magic.
But the wand he held in his carrot-like fingers was clearly the Elder Wand.
Not only MacGuffin, Blake saw it too.
They hesitated and took two steps forward, approaching the guy who looked more like a berserker, and spoke without confidence,
"Ah... don't you think?"
"Dumbledore... Lido?..."
After hearing the sound, the man turned around.
McGuffin and Black stared at the man in front of them with numbness.
They couldn't believe what they saw.
This fellow was indeed Albus Dumbledore, the old bee.
No, it's not time to call him an old bee,
Whose bee looks like this, and it's not the Zerg in Star Wars.
Dumbledore had a strong figure, and when he turned around, his angular figure brought an indescribable sense of oppression to the two of them.
"Oh, Mr. Albert, and Black..."
Shir!The sound is no longer the peaceful feeling of the past,
Very low, very MAN.
It sounds like a strong sense of power.
And that face!
The MacGuffin could hardly look straight ahead,
Dumbledore's old wrinkled face, which was always smiling, suddenly became sharp, as if the muscles on it had been fully exercised.
kind of...
Yes, there is a tough style of JOJO.
Filled with the word 'invincible'.
Even the long silver beard, which looks the same as before, has a bit of Mr. Guan's demeanor.
It seemed that when those two pairs of eyes narrowed, when the tone was cold, when the beard was touched, someone's head would fall to the ground.
"..."
What Dumbledore said, McGuffin didn't listen at all.All his attention was on Dumbledore's new form.
"McGuffin! MacGuffin! . . . Mr. Albert! . . . "
"what?"
He didn't wake up until Black next to him pulled the McGuffin hard.
"What? What's the matter?!"
McGuffin quickly rubbed his face vigorously to calm himself down.
Still, he's a bit unable to look straight at Old Fox's Super Saiyan transformation.
"Can you show me the ring around your neck?"
said Albus Dumbledore suddenly.
(Since temporarily escaped from Voldemort's pursuit, McGuffin took off the [Curse of Response Blue], a ring that can listen to the echo of magic power in the world, and wore a long thread around his neck)
McGuffin looked up at the old muscular stick in front of him.
Only then did he notice that Dumbledore was also wearing a golden ring on his hand.
It's that [Pupil of Flesh and Blood·Red].
Understood!
McGuffin knew why Dumbledore became like this, but... Didn't the old guy notice the curse attached to the ring?
He remembered that the price of the ring should be——
"Deeply caught in the pursuit of creeping red, addicted to the stimulation and pleasure of flesh and blood to change the will and reason, until finally turned into a puppet of flesh and blood."
And every month, he will be tested by this ring. If he doesn't rely on his will to pass the test of flesh and blood, he will directly become a crawling monster of flesh and blood.
After being asked again by Dumbledore, McGuffin reacted from his contemplation, tore the ring from his neck, and handed it to Dumbledore.
Judging from the current performance, this old muscular stick can be barely believed.
What's more, even if McGuffin refuses to agree, let alone his strength, he can easily snatch the ring from McGuffin's hand just by relying on his abnormally developed tendons.
Fortunately, Dumbledore didn't do much.
He just looked at the ring slightly, and then bumped the [Pupil of Flesh Red] and the [Curse of Echo Blue] on his hands, and experimented with them.
Then he started staring up at the sky.
"Dumbledore? Albus..."
This time Sirius Black finally couldn't take it anymore, he growled anxiously.
"Professor Dumbledore, stop wasting time...Harry he..."
"Harry is fine, this is his necessary journey and life... an essential step in his destiny..."
"You've done well, Sirius!" said Dumbledore at last, looking down at the two of them, before taking off the ring and tossing it to the MacGuffin.
"What did I do?" Black shouted angrily at Dumbledore, "You don't know...Professor! Harry is in great danger now... Voldemort has found Harry...he's just staying with Hagrid and that disgusting Muggle family..."
"I know!"
Dumbledore said quietly.
"It's just that things have developed to such a point that even if Harry is not ready, he can only start to face his fate..."
"It's not just him, each of us must learn to face our own destiny at this moment..."
"However, now is not the time..."
After finishing speaking, Dumbledore waved his hand, interrupting Black's angry rebuttal.
He turned around and swung his wand, hammering on the big bronze clock next to him.
Boom!
- Boom!
The heavy bell continued to roar and echo.
When McGuffin Black was overwhelmed.
The ancient city, or fort, came to life,
Under the castle, under these walls, countless giant worms, living corpses, monsters, stone statues, skeletons... All kinds of monsters suddenly appeared.
It suddenly struck like a tsunami from the endless crimson wasteland.
Human Muggles and wizards are also very skilled... Standing on the city wall, casting spells, shells, and pouring all kinds of firepower... Constantly fighting with those inhuman alien monsters.
At this moment, this place has turned into the most tragic and cruel battlefield.
