Chapter 3371 The Tide of the World (6)

Wizards will encounter many situations that are not suitable for Apparition. The first is taking magical animals. Scamander took Muggle transportation when he went to New York.

In addition, they took the baby with them, and they went to great lengths to take Harry away from Godric's Hollow. In the end, Hagrid rode Sirius's flying motorcycle and took Harry to Petunia's house.

This is not absolutely forbidden, Augusta disapparated with Neville, Neville was still asleep at the time, and Frank and Alice were kidnapped by Bella and the Death Eaters who broke into the house.

"Why are you here?" Georgiana asked, because Julian Ouvral actually arrived at Muela's house.

"How was the party?" Julian, who was sitting on the sofa, woke up from his sleep and asked a little confused.

"I'll let you go back and rest," Georgiana said.

Julian rubbed his eyes and asked "Have you ever heard of the Elosis Mysteries?"

She had a bad feeling just hearing the word "secret ritual".

"They worshiped Meter and Persephone," said Julian.

"Oh." She said naively, "It sounds good, but..."

She stopped here.

"If it was just to worship the goddess of harvest, there would be no need for me to come here in the middle of the night." Julian said, "They are protecting the secret of the ritual. No one knows what its creed and the exact nature of the ritual are. What were you doing there? "

"What are you asking me for?"

"I thought you would be accepted," Julian said.

Georgiana's memory stayed after drinking a glass of water...

Caroline doesn't know how to drink. She is pregnant now, so has Denon drank water?

If they had all drank and they were all sleeping so heavily in the car, then it might not be caused by fatigue.

"Do you remember what happened?" Julian asked seriously.

"I don't know why, but I keep thinking about Bernini's sculpture of snatching Persephone," Georgiana said.

"How could you not know? Aren't you participating in the ceremony to worship Persephone?" Julian asked.

"No one told me they were going to have that ceremony!" Georgiana yelled. "If I had known, I wouldn't have taken Caroline there!"

Julian covered his face with his hands and said after a while, "You didn't tell Caroline?"

"Where's Denon?" Georgiana asked anxiously.

"He thinks you know." Julian said tiredly. "Aren't you a witch?"

"Is that what a witch needs to know?" Georgiana asked.

Julian looked at her.

"I'm going to see Caroline," Georgiana said, leaving her bedroom.

Caroline seemed fine. She was being looked after by the maid and was about to go to sleep.

"Does the child still kick you?" Georgiana asked nervously.

Originally, Caroline wasn't anxious because this was her third pregnancy.

"He's quiet." Caroline said slightly horrified, holding her stomach.

"Maybe it's because he's tired after kicking you all day," Georgiana said awkwardly.

Caroline immediately called her family doctor. After examination, both Caroline and the fetus were normal.

When he came out of Caroline's room, Denon was already in the courtyard accompanied by Julian.

"I also drank water." Denon said, "But I didn't drink it directly, but added it to the wine."

"Go and fetch Grando." Georgiana said to Julian. "The glass of water I drank was brought by Grando."

So after another busy day, Georgiana went to the carriage where she loaded the books and found some clues about the secrets of Elosis.

According to Thucydides, during the Peloponnesian War, there was a general named Alcibiades who was appointed to command the Athenian fleet. He led the Athenians to a series of victories. However, in 410 BC, after he defeated Sparta and helped Athens regain its supply line to the Black Sea, he was seized from command because of some crimes, one of which was desecrating Ilo. Secrets of the Sith.

After changing the commander, Athens suffered successive defeats. Alcibiades warned the Athenian commander to no avail. In 404 BC, he returned to Persia and was murdered in Persia. Athens also fought in the Peloponnesian War. Defeated in battle.

It took about half an hour for Grando to show up. He had no idea what was going on.

"I found the water in a stone basin, and it looked clean," Grando said. "It seemed like rain."

Georgiana didn't even want to ask Grando when it had last rained in Milan.

The key was the stone basin he mentioned. Georgiana had also seen it, and it was placed in the garden.

It was one of the sculptures collected by Ciconiara, but it was not ancient Greek or Roman, but the work of the Lombards, and it was inscribed with ancient runes.

She didn't take a closer look at the time, but there were many such antiques in Chiconyara's house. So Georgiana got into the carriage again and returned to her home in Chiconyara.

It was already late at night, and if it was an ordinary party, it would be over. But if a secret ceremony is to be held, then before the rooster crows is a good time.

She did not rush into the manor, but went to the garden and found the stone basin.

In fact, the style of this stone basin looks nothing like the pensieve in the principal's office. It is deeper, placed on a solid stone pier, and decorated with a coat of arms.

The runes on the stone basin commemorate the wedding of the Lombard prince Alboin and Rosamond. Alboin was the founder of the Lombard Kingdom who drank from a skull cup. At first, the Lombards did not cross the Alps. , arrived in northern Italy. They bypassed the Alps and lived near Vienna and Linz on the Danube, where they met Justinian.

Justinian wanted to maintain the local balance, so a war broke out between the originally peaceful Lombards and King Gepid. Crown Prince Gepid was killed and Princess Rosamund was kidnapped. Justinian intervened , Alboin's first wife just died, Alboin married Rosamond as his wife.

When Justinian died, Alboin became the king of Lombardy. He killed his father-in-law. The skull wine cup was made of his father-in-law's skull. Then Alboin led his tribe to migrate to Italy.

After he conquered Pavia, Rosamund murdered him and then allied with the Eastern Roman Empire, retaining only Ravenna and a small amount of land in Rome.

"Did you move this thing from Switzerland?" Georgiana asked Ciconiara, who was hurriedly wearing a white silk nightgown.

"You came here in the middle of the night just to ask this?" Chiconyala asked in disbelief.

"Is your party tonight for the Elesis Mysteries?" Georgiana then asked.

"No...oh, God." Chiconyara's face changed midway through his words.

"What's the matter?" asked Georgiana.

"I forgot... You may not believe it, but I did forget it." Chiconyara explained, "This is all a coincidence."

"Have you given Caroline anything strange to drink?" Georgiana asked seriously.

"I don't have...I can't guarantee the others." Chiconyara said helplessly.

"If something happens to Caroline, I don't know what Bonaparte and Murat will do." Georgiana said coldly, "No one or anything can protect you."

She finished speaking and left, completely ignoring Chiconyala's ugly face.

Then she checked into the Marino Palace that night.

As long as the Austrians don't break into Milan, no one can wake her up.
