Chapter 153 Time Reversal

Ulrich Kruger, the director of the Department of Mysterious Affairs of the German Ministry of Magic, is also a witch.

In some secret and incomprehensible magical things, witches seem to have a natural advantage over wizards and can study these things more deeply.

When Silk came to the director's office, Kruger was holding a long parchment that dragged on the ground, frowning as he looked at the contents.

"What's the result?"

Even in front of her boss, Silk was still so concise.

Kruger handed the parchment directly to Silk.

"The locket your friend got is a time converter, but it is not kept in the Ministry of Magic. That kind of time converter has great limitations and can only go back five hours at most."

Kruger crossed his hands on the table and frowned.

"The old goblin who communicated with you before may have concealed something, because the highest alchemy created by the goblins is still effective even today."

"They do understand the alchemy skills better than most wizards. They improved the time converter according to the production method of the time converter at that time and solved the obstacle of only being able to go back five hours at most."

"Why didn't they use it at that time?" Silk asked softly.

"Because breaking through the five-hour shackles is not without a price. The converter will have to go through as much time as you want to go back."

"After it was made, it has been hidden in the underground goblin headquarters in Hogsmeade. The goblins set a time node for the converter."

"In the future, no matter who gets it, as long as they take it out from underground, the converter will repair itself, and then wait for the repair to be completed at midnight on the day, it will start and go back to this time node together with the wizard who got it."

"This converter was made at the end of the second goblin rebellion in 1723, and the time node they set was thirty years later, that is, in 1753. The converter will go back at this time, and it will appear directly in the hands of Lala, one of the important leaders of the goblin rebellion."

"Because Lala is one of the most core members of the goblin high-level, but not in the command level. Even if the war fails in the end, the wizards will only lock him up instead of executing him."

"Lara will not only get this converter, but also a wizard from the future, who knows how long it will be. The goblins plan to torture the wizard to extract the future history. The converter can also allow Lara to go back to any time in the thirty years from 1723 to 1753 to find a way to change the outcome of the goblins' defeat."

"Knowing the history of the future and the history of the past thirty years, Lara can avoid the mistakes made by the goblins in the war and learn the decisions of the wizards. Try to reverse the outcome of the war and finally save the defeat."

"Even if the time converter does not bring back a future wizard as promised on this day in 1753, Lara can take out the converter with enough time after being released from prison and change the past through the known thirty years of history."

"These goblins have arranged everything, but an unexpected accident happened."

When Silk said this, she happened to see this part in the report.

"Fiddlesticks ate Lala's soul."

"Yes, not only Lala, but also the prison where the goblin war criminals were held before the time point they set in 1753. Fiddlesticks ravaged the prison. It ate all the goblin souls in the prison and obtained their memories."

"The history of magic records that an unknown plague broke out in the prison during that period, leading to the death of the goblin war criminals, but the goblins always suspected that the wizards had done something wrong, and almost had a third rebellion for this."

"More than two hundred years have passed, and Fiddlesticks' memory is very turbid, but he remembers this incident very clearly. Even the first thing he thought of when he escaped was to get the time converter."

"It wants to use the time converter to go back two hundred years in the past. That era is the best time for it to survive."

Kruger finished telling the story and shook his head with emotion.

"No matter how much you prepare in advance, you still can't escape the backstab of fate in the end, so it's better to do more divination. Fortunately, we have you, Silk." Silk didn't say anything. Her fingers squeezed the long parchment tightly, as if she wanted to tear it apart. Then she stood up suddenly from the chair. "Help me connect to the British Floo network. I want to go to Hogwarts!" Sherlock watched the pointer on the pocket watch reverse, and the surrounding scene was changing rapidly! It was as if the golden light was retreating, and there were only two entities in the world, him and Snape. The pointer on the pocket watch kept turning backwards, and Sherlock could only see its afterimage at such a fast speed.

A strong sense of uneasiness rose from the bottom of his heart.

He could feel that if the pocket watch continued to rotate, there would definitely be serious consequences that he could not bear. He had to find a way to stop it as soon as possible!

Sherlock tried to put his wand into the pocket watch to block the rotating pointer, but the needle seemed to have really turned into a phantom and could not be affected by the real object at all.

The uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger. He did not give up, but began to try to cast a spell on the pocket watch.

Sherlock threw all the wands on his body, except the one he lent to Sirius, and a total of two hundred wands were scattered around him.

The wands floated densely in the air, and the tips of the wands were all aimed at the pocket watch in his hand.

"All curses are over!"

The orange-red, flame-like substance instantly rose up beside Sherlock!

In just a few seconds, the flames filled the golden space, enveloping Sherlock and Snape!

After using two hundred high-level spell-breaking spells, it was obvious that the golden light flying around them slowed down.

The same was true for the pointer on the pocket watch. Sherlock could now at least see the rotation trajectory of the pointer on it, which made him feel very excited.

If it was useful, it meant there was still hope of stopping!

Then he continued to use the high-level general spell-breaking spell without hesitation.

The spell of "All Spells End" can be continuously superimposed, which means that quantitative changes can cause its qualitative changes.

After Sherlock controlled the magic wand for the third time and used the spell-breaking spell again, the surroundings had become a world of gold and red!

The power gathered by the six hundred spell-breaking spells was constantly consuming the golden substances, and the speed of the pointer on the pocket watch had slowed down to the same as the normal second hand!

Sherlock was panting, and the continuous casting had exhausted his body, but he still insisted on using the spell-breaking spell again.

In the end, the two hundred spells finally joined the confrontation between the gold and red colors, completely turning the situation into a one-sided situation.

The golden streams that surrounded Sherlock and Snape shattered with a bang!

The hands on the pocket watch finally stopped moving, as if they were stuck by something. They kept trying to move forward, but they could never move forward half a square.

Sherlock's feet touched the soft wheat field, and the magic wands scattered everywhere. Snape, who had been petrified and had not removed the effect, fell directly into the golden wheat field.

The physical fatigue continued to invade his nerves, but Sherlock still insisted on standing up from the ground and checking the surrounding situation.

The sun was scorching in the sky, and it was definitely not night now.

They appeared in a wheat field, surrounded by yellow wheat everywhere. Five or six meters away from them, there were two men, one old and one young, holding sickles, staring at them in amazement.

Sherlock ignored Snape who fell in the wheat field, but looked at the two Muggles who were obviously white.

"Where is this place?"

The young man stammered.

"Sue, Scotland."

"Where in Scotland?"

"Sue, Renfrewshire, Scotland."

Sherlock panted, his voice a little nervous.

"What time is it now? What year and month?"

But at this time, the old man reacted, he raised the sickle and looked at Sherlock with a vigilant face.

"Who are you!"

Sherlock didn't say anything, but gently waved the wand in his hand, and the sickles in the hands of the two Muggles flew high by themselves, and they were all tied up with ropes that appeared at some point, restricting their movements.

"If you answer my questions honestly, I will let you go." Sherlock frowned tightly, "What time is it now!"

The two Muggles looked at him in horror, the old man was panicking and shouting "Witchcraft! Witchcraft!", but the young man was still calmer, he continued to answer stutteringly.

"111... June 29, 1977? Or the 28th, I forgot the exact date..."

Sherlock's face suddenly turned ugly, he and Snape went back to 17 years ago!

Originally, it must have been not just the present time, but it would have been pushed back even further, but fortunately he interrupted the progress of the pocket watch to go back in time, otherwise who knows what era they would go back to!

After understanding the basic information, Sherlock used the Oblivion Spell on the two Muggles, erasing their memories for three hours, and then used the Levitation Spell to take Snape away from the wheat field first.

After finding a secluded corner nearby, Sherlock first took away Snape's wand, and finally removed the petrification spell on him.

Snape's face was very strange, he didn't seem to be angry or sad, but rather acted a little strange, his eyes were mixed with disbelief, excitement, and... excitement!

"I heard it." He rolled his throat and stared at Sherlock, his eyes still shining. "It's 1977... 1977!"
