A dark red star hung in the sky, and William's attention, was completely attracted.

The mist was eeriely dyed red, making the stars bigger, and it seemed like a glowing wound.

William was stunned and a little dazed, trying to think......

What was he doing before?

Memories slowly take shape...... It's like a bubbling bubble that rises to the surface from the unfathomable depths of the sea.

William remembered.

He and Hermione took the express train from Florence to Venice.

Why is it here?

Dreams?

But...... It's real, it's not like a dream!

Besides, who knows that he is dreaming when he dreams?

The fog is getting bigger and bigger, and a river appears not far away.

The river appeared so abruptly, but William was not surprised.

It seems like it's always been there!

Across the river,

Suddenly a person appeared.

Across the churning river, he stood under the dense elderberries, opposite William; He was unmoving, solemn, with a wide hood that completely covered his entire face.

William didn't cross the river, he instinctively felt that the smell of death in the water was everywhere.

Is there no bridge?

He is still needed...... Build one?

William was about to touch his wand when the person on the other side suddenly spoke:

"O man who bears the crown of wisdom,

Follow in the footsteps of the Doge of Venice. ”

The man's voice was low, and to William's ears, it seemed like he was speaking in his head.

"Who are you?" He opened his mouth to shout, but he couldn't make the slightest sound.

"He lied,

Cut off the horse's head,

Take away the bones of the blind ......"

The river churned with his words.

"The flood will flood the sky,

The Holy Grail burns at the bottom of the tomb.

In the depths of the phoenix's rebirth,

The lagoon does not reflect the stars.

Monsters wait in the dark,

Merlin's prophecy will come true. ”

"What do you mean?" William has a long mouth. "Who are you?"

He wanted to get closer, but the river in front of him became even more turbulent and impassable.

William looked up again, at the hooded wizard.

Without warning, he disappeared into thin air. Tall elderberry branches and leaves make a rattling sound.

The river boiled like a monstrous wave, smashing towards William.

William's eyes snapped open, and he woke up from his daze.

After a few gasps, he realized that he was lying on a large bench.

The train was moving away from Florence at high speed, with a soft, repeated clicking sound and a slight shaking movement. Recommended ReadingTV//

Hermione had sat up, looking at the boy with a worried face.

William slowly remembered that he and Hermione had been lying here before, admiring the Italian scenery outside the train window.

It was probably the continuous pounding of the rain, and the slight shaking of the train, that made him fall asleep.

The girl asked softly, "William, have a nightmare?" ”

William nodded slightly, he frowned, and said strangely: "It seems to be ...... yes, I'm not sure, it's a nightmare. ”

Hermione sat cross-legged, gently holding William's head, resting on her white legs, and rubbing his temples for him.

William's eyes were closed, still thinking about what had just happened.

He thought for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Remember what I told you about Nicol?" ”

Hermione stroked William's brow, her fingers not pausing, and she quickly recalled:

"Remember, you said he had a dream about a wizard with a hood.

The man told him that in a cave on the northwest shore of the Arabad Sea, there was a legendary alchemy book.

Just take that book, study it diligently, and understand it thoroughly, and you will gain extraordinary knowledge......"

William stared into Hermione's eyes and whispered, "I also dreamed of a wizard with a hood just now. ”

Hermione's fingers paused, and she muttered, "That doesn't mean anything...... Maybe it's just a dream......"

Well, Nicol is also dreaming.

But he believed it, and after only one breakfast, he decided to sell all his belongings and immediately set out to look for it in a foreign land.

Without a little hesitation.

Moreover...... I really found the alchemy book!

Well, dreams are sometimes not just dreams, they can also be death's...... Guidelines!

"The wizard in your dream also pointed out the location of a Deathly Hallows?" Hermione squinted.

"No, he said something close to prophecy."

William wrote the words of the hooded wizard on parchment.

Hermione read it twice, but she didn't understand anything. However, in this passage, there is an obvious mention of one word:

Grail!

According to Nicol's guess, the Holy Grail was a deathly hallows artifact.

It first appeared in the hands of Jesus, and then, after Jesus' death, Joseph of Arimathea buried him and brought the Holy Grail to Britain.

Galahad, one of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table, used the magical power of the Holy Grail to heal the dying deposed king.

Later, Galahad gave the Holy Grail to the wizard Merlin.

Merlin hid the Holy Grail in the memorial under Stonehenge, but later disappeared again.

And the Grim Reaper appeared in William's dream, did he come to show him the location of the Holy Grail?

William suddenly remembered Merlin's proverb:

You don't have to look for the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail will come to you.

Isn't that what you're looking for now? Even the address was told, but William didn't figure it out.

The two discussed for a while, and Hermione burned the parchment. There was nothing wrong with being careful, she had already memorized the content in her mind.

“…… I think we can look up the "Common Dream Interpretation", maybe the book will talk about the meaning of dreaming of death. ”

Hermione was still trying, characterizing it as a dream.

However, her tone was not sure, after all, there was an example of Nicol here, and it was unlikely that the answer would be found in the books.

William nodded, no objection. He shifted to a more comfortable position, resting his head on the pillow.

Hermione also lay down, leaning her face against William's chest and looking out the window with a pair of awesome eyes.

The train was still speeding away, neither of them spoke, and seemed to be asleep again.

They have been in Italy for many days.

In fact, just a few days after the summer holidays began, William and Hermione left England for Italy.

The International Joint Wizards' Conference was held on the 13th, which lasted for ten days.

They came so early, naturally, not to be enthusiastic about meetings, but to visit various places in Italy.

Anyway, the Ministry of Magic will reimburse you, and if you don't play for nothing, you won't play. Along the way, be sure to stay in the best hotels, eat the most expensive food, and play the wildest projects.

They started in Pompeii and passed through several cities before heading north to Rome. At this time, he was leaving Florence and heading to Venice.

The two of them are currently in a high-class box on a train. There is a double bed, two leather seats, and a folding table.

William turned his gaze out the car window and watched the pastel tones of the Italian countryside blend together into a tranquil collage.

The foothills of the Apennines, gradually replacing the plains, have fewer vineyards and farms.

The train will soon wind its way through the pass and then continue down its journey east to the Adriatic Sea.

The closer you get to the sea, the heavier the rain becomes. This is said to be the first heavy rain in a century in meteorological history, and it has been falling for half a month.

William suddenly remembered the words of the Grim Reaper:

The flood will flood the sky,

The Holy Grail burns at the bottom of the tomb.

Let's hope this trip to Venice is safe and sound.

He clasped his palms together inside.
