Chapter 510 The Land of Prophecy
"Are you sure you want to take Veritaserum?"
Standing at the bow, William rested his elbow on the mast and patted the mast with the other hand.
"I don't need it, will you believe me?" Nymeria slumped on the wooden board with a sad expression.
William glanced at the woman in surprise...she was determined.
What Nymeria said was also true, neither William nor Hermione would believe what she said now.
William wanted to use Legilimency, but he hadn't practiced it in the time loop.
After leaving the circulation, I studied by myself for two years and was able to perform it, but the technique was not up to standard.
What's more, Legilimency is not a panacea, and it is easy to be deceived by Occlumency masters.
Veritaserum is the only safe way.
Since Nymeria offered Veritaserum on her own initiative, it saved a lot of trouble.
He flipped it over with his left hand, and a small transparent bottle appeared.
After taking it, Nymeria poured it into her mouth without any hesitation, then lowered her head and closed her eyes.
After a while, Nymeria seemed to have spent a lot of effort to open her eyelids, with a dazed expression on her face.
William sat opposite each other and said calmly, "Anything I ask, you answer."
She nodded in a daze.
"what's your name?"
"Nymeria Sand."
"What's the deal with Tyene?"
"She's my sister."
"...Who is your father?" William asked with interest.
"Oberon Martell."
William and Hermione looked at each other in shock.
Secretary Martel?
This is big news!
As we all know, since the accident when he was young, half of his body was burned, and Mr. Martell has never been married in his life.
Who would have thought that there were two daughters behind her back?
Especially William, apart from being shocked, he was even more impressed with admiration.
Martell is over 100 years old, and Tyene is in her early twenties at most. When you are in your 80s, can you still give birth to two daughters?
Old and strong!
William is more interested in the details of this matter.In particular, whether Martell had taken some strange potions.
Of course William doesn't need to use it, and he's not interested in selling it to make money, but...he just wants to benefit mankind.
You know, the birth rate in the wizarding world is very low.
Look at Minister Fudge, he doesn't have a child until now... Isn't this kind of magic medicine missing?
And Malfoy.
Don't want to have a second child?
Seeing Mr. Weasley's many children, don't you itch your teeth with envy?
Everything is better than Mr. Weasley, but not the number of children!
Also...Draco's tuba is about to be scrapped, so it would be nice to practice a trumpet again...
William charged him [-] Galleons a bottle, if it really works...not expensive, right?
"By the way... are you related by blood?" William asked again.
He was afraid that Martel hadn't taken the magic medicine, but had the Hulun Buir Grassland on his head.
"There is no blood relationship. We were secretly adopted by Martel when we were ten years old."
Well, William was a little disappointed.His magic world liberalized the two-child policy...it was a mess.
"Why did he adopt you?" Hermione asked.
"Father has adopted many orphans, trained them in magic skills since they were young, and let them carry out secret missions when they grow up."
"We were the last of the children, and the only two still alive," Nymeria replied unemotionally.
William raised his brows. The so-called secret missions are naturally shady missions.
It is normal for an old wizard who has stood tall in the political arena of the magic world to have done many shady things.
After serious consideration, he said, "So you stole the Goblet of Fire?"
"I stole it." Nymeria said without hesitation.
"My father gave me Russell's hair and I used Polyjuice Potion to make him look like him.
After stealing the Goblet of Fire, I gave it to my father.And secretly told Trieni about this matter.
With my help, she finally stole the Goblet of Fire from her father's office. Nymeria said quickly.
"Why did Tyene steal the Goblet of Fire, isn't she Martell's adopted daughter?" Hermione asked puzzled.
"No... Tyene broke with her father a long time ago." Nymeria shook her head.
"Break?" Hermione demanded. "Because of what?"
"When you turn 17, you have to go on a mission. Tyene's first mission is to assassinate the Italian Minister of Magic.
She got scared, ran away, and hid for years. ’ said Nymeria.
"What about you?" William bent down and looked at Nymeria.
"You didn't defect, so Martel asked you to give us these two masks?"
"Yes."
William nodded slightly, understanding the whole thing.
Martell wants to blame William and Hermione for the theft of the Goblet of Fire.
William and Hermione are very suitable, not to mention the reputation, the most important thing is the two little wizards.
The two are innocent, and there is a high probability that they will not resist and will only accept investigation.
Locked up and his wand confiscated, Martell had too many ways to kill them, even if the Starks were powerful.
Who will carry out this matter?
William thought about it, and felt that Auror Captain Russell was the most suitable.
Seeing him pursue so enthusiastically, he must either have been hit by the Imperius Curse, or Martel made a big promise.
And Nymeria turned into Russell with Polyjuice Potion and stole the Goblet of Fire, which was not a random choice.
Martell must have left evidence that "Russell" stole the Goblet of Fire.
After Russell killed William and Hermione, Martell exposed Russell and accidentally killed him.
Then, the whole thing was done by Russell, who killed William and Hermione, of course with the idea of framing them.
No one can suspect Martell, after all, he didn't do anything.
The plan was fairly careful, but Martell did not expect that two accidents occurred:
William and Hermione didn't play their cards according to the routine at all, they didn't accept the investigation at all, they directly attacked the Auror wildly and fled;
The Goblet of Fire was stolen by Tyene.
William and Hermione survived, and the Goblet of Fire was stolen, so Martell had to chase him all over the city.
"So, where is the Goblet of Fire now?" Hermione asked the most crucial question.
"I don't know, I don't know where my sister is hiding." Nymeria replied.
"Then, since she stole the Goblet of Fire, why did she go to Martell?"
"She said...to stop Martell, to finish off that dragon!"
How clever Hermione is, after thinking for a moment, she quickly said:
"William, Tyene turned herself in, she must have told Martell that she knew the location of the Goblet of Fire.
Now it's time to take him to the place where the Goblet of Fire is hiding, and try to kill him there... "
William nodded, but said nothing.
Because everything is back to the original point.
Where is the Holy Grail hidden by Tyene?
Guidance from Death, mentions following in the footsteps of the Doge of Venice.
But the Venetian governor, who reconquered Constantinople and brought great glory to the Roman Empire, was finally buried in Hagia Sophia.
That is Constantinople!
Not in Venice.
Wait... William immediately realized that although the tomb of the governor was in Constantinople, someone might have brought back his remains and buried them in his hometown of Venice.
It's a grave, too!
William gave his analysis, and Hermione stared, rummaging through a thick book.
"I must have seen it somewhere..." she said loudly. "I have to think about it."
Hermione was rubbing between her brows with her left hand, and she was flipping through the book with her right hand.
"I think about it, before I fell asleep last night, I seemed to have seen it in a daze."
"Found it!" She turned a certain page, put it on her lap, and read aloud:
"After conquering the ancient city, Doge Enrico Dandolo died in Constantinople the following year, 1205, before returning to Venice.
Although the commander-in-chief of the crusaders was the Marquis de Montferrat, French records also refer to the governor as the brains of the army.
This extraordinary figure was buried in Sophia Cathedral, and any decoration on the sarcophagus is only engraved with the name 'Enrico Dandolo' in Latin.
We can still see the sarcophagus to this day.
The site of Dandolo's tomb remained unchanged after Constantinople fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453.
During his stay in Constantinople, Bellini proposed to Mehmet II that he hoped to bring some of Dandolo's remains back to Venice.
The Sultan, who was deeply moved by Bellini's painting, readily accepted the painter's request..."
"Where did you say that the bones brought back were buried?" William asked.
With a pale face, Hermione flipped through those pages repeatedly, raised her head, and said in a trembling voice, "No!"
William closed his eyes and put his hands together under his chin.Since I came to Venice, the memory images are like a horse watching a flower, going round and round non-stop.
"The Holy Grail burns at the bottom of the tomb.
In the depths of the rebirth of the phoenix,
The lagoon does not reflect the stars.
Monsters wait in the dark,
Merlin's prophecy will finally come true. "
At this moment, his thoughts seemed to fall into a whirlpool... Reaper, Merlin, Holy Grail, tomb, Phoenix, Martell...
"Merlin's prophecy...Merlin!!"
William snapped his eyes open.
"Hermione, I already know where the god of death guides me."
too easy!
The god of death told him clearly...incomparably clear!
He actually only reacted now.
"Where is it?" Hermione asked hastily.
"Remember... in 1902, the bell tower of St. Mark's suddenly collapsed?" William reminded.
Hermione was stunned for two seconds, and said:
"The Holy Grail and the Dragon, in Piazza San Marco...deep underground!"
"That's right, it's there!"
