Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures-Chapter 1201: Thousands of Years in a Glance

Evan stopped where he was. The room was bathed in a dim blue light, eerie and mysterious.

In front of him stood a huge stone pillar carved with intricate patterns and ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

It took him three full seconds to realize that the pale blue light in front of him was coming from the flame burning in the brazier on top of the stone pillar.

This was the Gubraithian Fire, an eternal magical flame that time had no effect on.

The Gubraithian Fire was a very precious thing. Evan had once seen one among the gifts Dumbledore had given to the giants. He had never expected that ancient Egyptian wizards would actually use it for lighting. It was truly astonishing and made him even more curious about the objects in this room.

In his hand, the pointer of the Time-Turner was spinning at an unimaginable speed.

Without its help, Evan would surely have vanished like the other intruders. He was not an eternal existence.

“Eternal existence…”

It occurred to him what would happen if Voldemort entered this room.

In theory, as long as his Horcruxes were intact, Voldemort was immortal. But the chaotic time in this place would turn his body to dust.

In this way, only his soul would be left wandering here, which essentially amounted to a form of sealing.

Without Evan’s Time-Turner or some other similarly powerful magic item, no one would be able to come in and rescue Voldemort.

If he could lure him in, all the problems would be solved. Of course, Voldemort wouldn’t be so foolish as to enter even though he knew there was a problem. But if Evan could find the magic item causing all this, and harness its powerful time magic…

Thinking of this, he became more eager and took two steps forward into the room.

Evan saw more stone pillars, about twenty or so.

They were spread across the room, arranged in a circle.

There was a brazier on the top of each stone pillar, in which the light blue Gubraithian Fire was quietly burning.

On the inner side of the pillars stood many strange totems, each corresponding to a pillar, adorned with gemstones.

Evan was not clear about the specific uses of these totems, and had never heard of or seen such a setting.

In the center of the room, on a high platform, he saw the tall statue of a figure with an eagle head and a human body.

Even though he had seen so many statues in the Hall of the Gods, the one before him still shocked Evan enough.

“God Horus, it really is here!”

This confirmed Rawya’s conjecture that this was the room dedicated to the god Horus, and it was also the great discovery she had been looking for.

She couldn’t come here today. If Evan could solve the time chaos here, he could bring Rawya…

There were still many questions, but now that the statue of Horus had been found, where was the magic item causing the time chaos?

Evan looked around and finally noticed something unusual in the eyes of the statue.

In ancient Egyptian legends and myths, Horus’s right eye symbolized the sun and his left eye symbolized the moon.

The rotation of the sun and moon marked the beginning of a day, representing time.

But anyone who had some knowledge of the relevant legends would know that Horus’s left eye had been gouged out by the god of war Set. Although it was later restored, it had lost its power. Instead, the gouged-out eye was believed to have sacred significance and supreme power.

It was also called Udjat Eye and represented the protection of the god Horus.

It was usually depicted on the pharaoh’s coffin together with the symbol of life to protect the deceased from harm on their path to eternal life.

Knowing this legend, Evan paid special attention to Horus’s left eye. His right eye was integrated with the statue itself, both carved from granite, but the left eye was different. The eyeball was replaced by a milky white crystal ball.

The crystal was shattered, and through the crack, Evan could see that there seemed to be something inside.

From a distance, he couldn’t make out clearly what it was.

But there was no doubt that it was the magic item that caused the time chaos. This thing was stored in the crystal ball. Due to the passage of time or some other reason, the crystal broke and the time power inside leaked out…

The Time-Turner in Evan’s left hand verified this. Without any warning, it suddenly floated up and flew towards the statue.

If Evan hadn’t reacted quickly and grabbed the chain of the Time-Turner, it would have flown away!

It seemed like a mutual attraction between the primal forces, as the crystal ball in Horus’s left eye also emitted a faint white light.

Evan gripped the Time-Turner tightly, thought for a moment, and did not rush onto the stone platform. He waved his wand and cast a Summoning Charm.

He didn’t expect the spell to work, as the precious magic items were often protected by many defensive spells to ensure their safety, and if there was no other way, he would have to climb up the statue and take out the crystal ball, hoping it wouldn’t come to that.

To his surprise, as Evan cast the spell, the crystal ball in Horus’s left eye flew over…

Everything went so smoothly, so smoothly that Evan couldn’t believe it.

He just watched the milky white crystal ball fly straight in front of him. Through the cracked gap, he could see an object inside resembling a round astrolabe, engraved with sun, moon, and stars, along with many symbols of unknown meaning.

He reached out to catch the flying crystal ball, but before he could touch it, the crystal ball shattered with a bang. Countless white light spots enveloped Evan, and the pointer of the Time-Turner abruptly froze, and the Gubraithian Fire in the brazier flared up.

In a dizzying whirlwind, Evan felt a strong force coming from the Time-Turner in his left hand, pulling him forward.

The Time-Turner was activated, and he was about to be taken to another point in time…

This was the only thought in Evan’s mind. In a trance, he saw the changes that this room had undergone over thousands of years.

As time went on, the room’s decorations became increasingly luxurious.

The exquisite decorations and curtains that had turned to dust reappeared, the walls and stone pillars that were cracked by weathering appeared to have a golden luster, and the carvings and murals on them became vivid. Faintly, Evan saw many wizards dressed in ancient Egyptian costumes worshiping the statue of Horus and those totems. He even saw the wizards performing a sacred ceremony. They took out the internal organs of a man’s corpse placed in the center of the room and preserved them in different jars.

This was Ramses II. This was a scene from after his death…

Thousands of years had passed in a glance. During these long and quiet years, only the quietly burning Gubraithian Fire had not changed.

When Evan’s feet landed on the ground again, he had returned to the time point more than two years ago.

This was during the reign of Ramses II, because he saw that wizard on the central stone platform…
