Chapter 374 Familiar Shirley
Luofu looked at the statue in front of him, an expression of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
Dumbledore was also King of Avalon?
Principal, how many secrets do you have that others don’t know?
However, when he thought about it again, the young man felt something was wrong.
Rove remembered that Dumbledore had said before that he had tried to find Avalon to find a way to save Ariana, but he had searched all over the North Sea and could not find the island.
Since it was not found, it is naturally impossible for Dumbledore to become the king of Avalon, let alone to have a statue standing here.
But it happened.
Rolf believed that Dumbledore was not lying. It could only mean that someone looked very similar to him, or... simply someone deliberately changed into his appearance.
The probability of the former is very low, but as for the latter, there is someone who is very likely to do such a thing!
Rolf pointed at Dumbledore's statue and asked, "Is this king named Gellert Grindelwald?"
Grindelwald has also been to Avalon, and he arrived earlier than Kurgar. If it were him... it would be completely correct.
But Livias shook his head and denied: "This king is not called Gellert Grindelwald."
Just when Luofu thought he had guessed wrong, he heard the old man continue to say:
"His name is...Albus Grindelwald."
"..."
Well, upon hearing this name, Rove was 100% sure that it was Grindelwald who used human transfiguration to become Dumbledore, and then became the king of Avalon.
So the question is, did Grindelwald reveal something by turning into Dumbledore and giving him his own surname?
For example...who is receiving and who is attacking.
Rove brainstormed in his mind and continued to visit the statue. After reading it, Livias led them forward again, crossing several blocks, and came to a large square illuminated by torches.
Luofu walked into the square, looked up, and saw a huge cylindrical tower standing in the distance.
The tower was built of stone, with a marble-columned portico at the entrance, and a row of Ionic half-columns supporting a frieze attached to the wall, richly carved in relief.
The walls have hundreds of red, yellow, gold and orange lines that overlap one another like stratus clouds at sunset.
Rolf raised his head, and kept raising it, raising it, raising it.
At first, he only saw various magical creatures carved on the walls, including wizards, giants, goblins, centaurs, sphinxes, dragons and other exotic animals.
Then, he noticed the misty fireworks next to a window high up. They were originally flames used for lighting in the building. Their lights looked down at the earth like orange eyes.
As the giant tower rose higher and higher, the more distant flames were almost just sparks shining in the night sky.
Finally, almost at the same level as the moon, there was a white light shining in the moonlight.
Luofu looked up at the hazy pale tower high in the sky, and felt dizzy suddenly.
Shirley and Nelisi did the same, looking up at the tower with almost no end in sight.
"Is this the Tower of Babel?" Nelisi murmured, obviously shocked: "This is too high."
"It is indeed very high, nearly three thousand meters in height." Livias introduced:
"The shadow cast by this tower during the day is like a sharp sword that can cut the entire kingdom. Anyone can tell the time of day by the length of the shadow."
"It is said that standing on the top of this Tower of Babel, you can overlook the end of Avalon."
Luofu couldn't help but be a little shocked when he listened to Livias's explanation.
You know, in his previous life, the tallest building in the world was the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, which was only over 800 meters high.
And this building, not to mention its height of three thousand meters, is still standing on this land and has not collapsed for thousands of years.
It can only be said that the giants did have an extremely brilliant civilization once upon a time!
Seeing the shocked expressions of the three of them, Levias smiled slightly and said:
"This Tower of Babel is indeed very high, but it is not the tallest existence in Avalon."
The old man narrowed his eyes, looked at the distant sky and said:
"It will still be night, and we can't see that thing yet. When the day comes, Your Majesty the King... you will be able to see what real high is!"
…
…
A carriage drove slowly along the wide road into the palace, and finally stopped in front of an oval square.
In the center of the square, stands a giant snow-white palace with three-story colonnades. The magnificent marble palace has a large silver dome, and the milky-white glass windows reflect the back of the three-wheeled moon.
A moment later, Livias hurried over. He came to the carriage, knelt down on the ground, lowered his head, and said respectfully:
"Queen, His Majesty the King has entered the Tower of Babel."
"Well." A seductive woman's voice sounded from the carriage. She asked in a lazy voice:
"Iris is injured?"
"Yes." Livias replied: "The dragon-shaped monster was blinded by one eye by His Majesty the King."
"He's not old, but he's pretty strong. It seems like he won't be killed by Iris so quickly." The woman chuckled.
When Levias heard the demonic voice, even he couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart. He quickly used Occlumency to stabilize his mind.
The woman laughed for a while, then stopped and asked:
"Livias, do you think I'm ugly? Otherwise, the new king won't be willing to live in the palace."
"Of course not, queen, you are the most beautiful woman in Avalon." Livias replied:
"Your Majesty the King, I just haven't seen you with my own eyes, otherwise he would definitely be tempted."
"Oh, the most beautiful woman?" the woman asked, "more beautiful than that mermaid?"
Livias didn't dare to speak anymore, he just knelt on the ground, a little sweaty.
"Forget it, go down." The woman said half-heartedly.
"I will obey the Holy Order." Livias took a deep breath, stood up, and walked quickly outside the palace, as if he did not dare to stay here for a second.
After Livias left, the woman in the carriage raised her arm, and a smooth crystal ball appeared in her palm.
The crystal ball was originally dark and lifeless. When she touched it gently, the center of the ball began to light up with a faint light, and then the scene in the Tower of Babel appeared.
The woman watched Rolf walking up the stairs, and she licked her lips lightly.
However, her eyes were quickly attracted by the girl with a red ponytail behind the boy.
The last time she saw such a beautiful human girl was the guy named Rowena Ravenclaw.
The woman subconsciously narrowed her eyes and stared at Shirley. For some reason, she always felt...
The girl's eyebrows looked familiar.
