v2 Chapter 758: Extinguished lighthouse (1/2)
Whether it is the Kraken or the Whirlpool, it is located in the Strait of Messina between the Italian peninsula and Sicily.
From the northeast corner of the island, where Irwin is now, you can clearly see the panorama of the strait.
Near the camp there is a small town where Muggles and sorcerers live together - Taormina. There is a well-preserved ancient Greek theater in the town. It is also a business card for Sicily. Ivan has just visited it not long ago.
At the southern end of the town, there is a stunning mountain cliff scenery and the largest active volcano in Europe, Etna.
The terrain of the whole mountain is quite complex, and the giants are hidden in it. It is also the birthplace of the legendary Cyclops.
In the mythology, the Cyclops will use the magma erupted by the volcano to create weapons, often with loud thunderous sounds.
The clouds in the vicinity are very thick. I can't see the top of the mountain for most of the year. It is not easy to find giants in it. Coupled with the loud noise from time to time, the nearby Muggle residents think that they live in the mountains. The giant is Raytheon.
Evan carefully observed the terrain nearby, and he saw the island in the memory of Ravenclaw probably in this area.
In other words, Gryffindor and Ravenclaw have been here more than a thousand years ago.
Gryffindor and the Cyclops in the mountains of Etna made a fight, leaving a scar on the eyes forever.
There is an old lighthouse near the coastline pier in the north of the town. It is a commanding height in the vicinity. It has been guiding the ships for sailing to the sea. You want to take a boat to see the Kraken and start from there.
The Italian Ministry of Magic has set up a special reserve here to protect the Kraken and operate a cruise ship dedicated to visiting the Kraken.
But now there is no one. Mr. Idas Grosso of the reserve told Ai Wen that when the school is on holiday, the wizards who come to visit will get more, and the little wizard who came here during his semester. Very rare.
”No, no, we can't go out to sea now!” Grosso shook his head and said, ”Boy, I suggest you better go to your parents or guardians. This neighborhood is very dangerous recently, not a small wizard like you can casually The place to hang out.”
”My uncle, they are busy with other things, I just take a look, I read the description of the Kraken in the book,” said Ai Wen. ”Why can't we go out because of Jin Jialong? Or, you I think I have to be accompanied by someone to see the Krakens!”
”All!” Grosso said, putting the hat on his head right, pointing to the lighthouse on the high ground next to the dock. ”But the main reason is that the lighthouse is broken, there is no lighthouse guide, we I can't go to the sea to find death. I tell you, those female Krakens like the little boys like you. If you fall into their hands, they won't kill you, but slowly raise them and keep them on the cliff facets. Inside the nest, I am with you every day.”
Evan turned to look at the old lighthouse, and Mr. Grosso told him that not long ago, the lights at the top of the lighthouse suddenly went out.
You know, this lighthouse is not only as simple as guiding the Muggle's ship. The lights in it are also very special protection magic, so that the boat and the crew can not be confused by the songs of the Krakens, let them not Immerse yourself in the illusion.
