Chapter 214 212. The beauty of nature

The whole tower is really big.

According to Rabir's introduction to Neville and the others, the reception room they are in is located on the 52nd floor, and the whole tower has a total of 77 floors, each floor is about 4 to 5 meters high.

In other words, if the height is not extended by the traceless extension spell, the part of this tower that exceeds the sea surface must be at least 300 meters.

Of course, there are not many buildings over 300 meters on land, but there are definitely many. You have to know that this tower is built on the sea surface, and in the depths of the Norwegian Sea.

People who know a little about architecture understand that it is basically impossible to lay a good foundation for a 300-meter-high tower in such an environment.

But in the magic world, there is always magic to solve these problems.

The task that Jon left for Neville and the others was actually not too dangerous. He just asked them to visit the general rooms of the tower as much as possible to observe whether there are any problems.

Unlike the situation in Azkaban, when Nick landed on the island before, he had already explored part of the prison and had a clear goal.

But they knew nothing about the place they came to this time. What Voldemort did when he stayed here, they had to find out by themselves.

Neville and his friends walked around the lower floors and saw the vegetable garden and pasture for self-sufficiency that Sir Stoke introduced to them at breakfast. On the 36th floor, they also entered a study full of books.

Rabill did not stop them from browsing the books in the study, but there were basically some magic books related to astronomy, and there was no more harvest.

It was just that when they were in the study, Luna found another black cat nesting on the bookcase.

"When did this cat run in front of us?" Ron asked curiously.

Luna said softly.

"It's not the one we saw before."

Ron opened his eyes and observed the lazy and motionless black cat for a long time, but he couldn't see the difference.

"What evidence do you have to prove it?"

"This one's whiskers are only as long as my thumb." Luna raised her thumb and compared them, saying seriously, "But the whiskers of the one we saw before were about the same length as my index finger."

Ron looked at Luna with a strange look on his face.

He had heard of this girl who was called "crazy girl". His sister shared a dormitory with her and they had a good relationship, but Ron didn't expect her to be so strange.

Which normal person would pay so much attention to the length of the whiskers of a cat he saw for the first time?

Labil, who was following them, heard the conversation and explained it in a humble manner.

"The owner originally had two black cats, but they were ordinary cats without the bloodline of catkins, so they died a long time ago. Those who are still living in the tower are their descendants, but the exact number has not been investigated yet."

Hermione was a little surprised why Luna was so interested in the black cat she saw today.

"Do you really want to have a cat?"

Luna shook her head and said only one sentence that was a bit elusive.

"I think unique animals are interesting."

After Sir Stocker took Jon out of the reception room, he stepped directly on the self-moving staircase and went up.

They soon arrived at the top of the entire tower.

"This tower had no name before. After I came here and settled down, I named it [Star]."

The word "star" is called [Star] when used as a surname, so if this tower is translated from its own meaning, it can be called [Star Tower].

From the way it was named, it can be seen that Sir Stocker did not lie about his love of studying astronomy. He really has an extraordinary interest in the starry sky above his head.

He led Jon to a wooden door on the top floor.

"This is the best place to observe the sky, and it is also the place where I usually stay the most."

They walked in, and there was a small round room inside, which was only 13 or 14 square meters at most. There was a circle of bookshelves around it, and the documents, notes and books were neatly placed on it.

There is a set of tables and chairs in the center of the room. There are also a lot of parchments with star maps on the table. The place is very tidy. I don’t know if it is the personal habit of this knight or the elf Labir is diligent enough.

There is also a wooden ladder leading to the ceiling next to the table and chairs, and there is a trap door just above the ladder.

Sir Stoke invited Jon to climb up the wooden ladder together, and then pushed open the trap door and came to the rooftop at the top of the tower.

It is very cold here.

After walking up, Jon subconsciously wrapped the thick robe that Sir Stoke reminded him to wear before going upstairs.

The deep sea, close to the North Pole, and high enough altitude, these simply gathered all the elements of coldness.

The wind around should have been strong, but it was obviously applied with the same windproof magic as on the flying broom, so that the coldness barely did not sting.

Similarly, along with the cold, people can clearly feel the indescribable scenery.

This kind of open space obviously cannot be used with the traceless extension spell, so the space is very small, only seven or eight square meters at most, and a large space is occupied by something like an astronomical telescope.

The moment he suddenly came up, Jon could feel the open view and the refreshing feeling.

The sky and the sea have been connected into a line, both are azure blue, and just looking at it can make people feel comfortable.

In the distant sea, the thick and long body of the sea snake will occasionally rise and fall from the sea water. Indistinctly, it seems that there are also several ant-sized mermaids who are jointly hunting an unknown marine creature on the water.

The Hogwarts is docked next to the tower. From Jon's current perspective, it looks like a model.

Jon keenly noticed that after coming here, Sir Stoke's emotions were undisguisedly excited.

He opened his arms and squinted his eyes to welcome the gentle sea breeze. His silver-gray hair fluttered in the air, and the hem of his well-fitting windbreaker fluttered in the wind.

"There are endless mysteries and knowledge to explore in the magic world, but sometimes it's not just magic that's wonderful, right, Professor Johnson?"

Jon glanced at the old man in front of him with an inexplicable look. He was obviously from a pure-blood wizard family, but he was called a Muggle noble. He nodded in agreement.

"The beauty of nature is indeed fascinating."
