MTL - A Magical Hogwarts-v7 Chapter 125 4th Rome

The old friends met, especially when they had shared adversity, and the mood was extremely excited.

You know, that year William and Hermione went to the International Wizarding Convention and encountered the loss of the Goblet of Fire and the White Dragon incident.

It is with the help of Terenei that the tide can be turned in Venice.

The only thing she wonders is why she came to the United States and is still helping Babeling?

In fact, the moment William saw Terenei, he understood.

It must have been Babrin bypassing herself and finding her alone.

In the year of the Triwizard Tournament, Babel specifically approached William and wanted to take Treene.

It was only rejected by William.

Of course Treanne is good at doing this kind of thing. She was adopted by Martell as a child and was trained to assassinate wizards.

Ability is definitely not a problem.

But the more so, the less William didn't want her to get involved in these things.

Traene prefers to drive gondolas and sail the seas, not kill people.

Looking at William's complicated expression, Terenei smiled softly:

"At that time, Babu Ling came to me and asked if I would like to come to the United States, she lacked someone to help.

I thought it was interesting, so I agreed, don't blame her. "

Terenei stretched her fingers and ruffled her hair on the sideburns.

Interesting is naturally a lie, otherwise she would not have defected to Martell back then.

She was willing to come here only because Babelin told her that she could help William.

But there are some things that need not be said and cannot be said.

She deliberately changed the subject, stood beside William, stretched out her hand to compare her height, and said with a smile:

"William, you've grown a lot taller. I remember being a head taller than you that year."

Terenei's height is absolutely outstanding among witches.

A pair of long legs against the sky, it is not an exaggeration to call it "leg essence".

But two years ago, William was only fifteen years old, and he had not yet fully developed, so it was normal that he was much shorter than Trine.

After the three chatted for a while, Hermione asked the most crucial question: "How do we get into the U.S. Capitol?"

"I have a solution, don't worry." Terenei winked at her playfully.

...

...

The stately and magnificent U.S. Capitol is located at the eastern end of the National Mall in Washington, a towering highland.

At the time, Washington designer Pierre Langfang called this place "the base of the monument".

The Capitol covers an area of ​​more than sixteen acres and contains 541 beautiful rooms.

The whole building is a three-story flat-roofed building with a towering dome in the center, which is also divided into three floors.

There is also a small round tower on the dome, with a bronze statue of the Statue of Liberty standing upright on the top of the tower.

She has a feather crown on her head, holds a torch in her right hand, and holds a scripture book in her left hand, always looking at the place where the sun rises in the east.

Standing outside the Lincoln Memorial and overlooking this magnificent building, William felt very familiar.

Of course, it is familiar, because the shape of the US Capitol Building is built in imitation of the Pantheon in Rome.

When he went to Venice that year, he traveled with Hermione and spent a few unforgettable nights in Rome, and was no stranger to the Pantheon.

A building is the same, that's all, if William continues to visit Washington, he will see more familiar things.

Quite simply, many buildings in this city are in other countries.

For example, the city of Washington, its vertical, horizontal, and oblique axes, although endowed with the image of a democratic republic such as "separation of powers", but a little comparison, with the plane of Versailles:

It's so similar.

This is also normal, after all, the designer Lang Fang is a French.

It is not difficult to imagine that the most beautiful new city in his mind is the look of a magnified Versailles Palace.

Lincoln Memorial, a proper copy of the ancient Greek Parthenon.

There is also the Washington Monument, a replica of the Egyptian obelisk.

Even the name of the capital "Washington", the founding fathers of the United States, originally wanted to name it "Rome".

They even became so mad that they renamed a small broken canal leading to the Reichstag "Tiber".

Insult who? !

Washington's buildings are also decorated with the legendary great gods and goddesses - Zeus, Apollo, Minerva, Venus, the sun god, Vulcan, Jupiter.

It's just that the appearance of these gods is all the founding fathers of the United States.

So it is not without reason that the United States and Russia cannot pee in the same pot.

Russia has always regarded itself as the successor of Byzantium, the Third Rome.

The United States also has a contemporary Rome argument.

The founding fathers of the country were eager to copy the capital to the Roman buildings one by one.

I just want to tell everyone clearly: I, the successor of Rome, surrender!

It's not a battle of the nation's fortunes.

But this kind of argument is really ridiculous, after all, Roman orthodoxy is in... Zhangjiakou.

Jing Luo's anger is useless.

The three of them can still get close to the Lincoln Memorial, but looking at the Capitol from here, you can see tanks parked at the door.

Generally, to enter the Capitol, you need to go to the underground visitor center.

Yes, government agencies such as the Capitol and the White House can be visited by tourists.

Some areas are open.

But at this time, the Muggle army has been under martial law, and anyone who wants to approach will be directly run over by a tank to warn.

There must be many purgers in the building, and these wizards have sealed the entrance and cast an anti-apparition spell.

Although it is possible to get in, it loses its secrecy.

Tom estimated that he would also like the Magical Congress of the United States to send Aurors to break through.

Other methods are required.

Both William and Hermione looked at Trine.

She had been here for a few years and knew the geography better than either of them.

Terenei really knew the secret passage, she laughed:

"We can go in from the Library of Congress, and there is a connecting corridor between the two buildings."

The U.S. Library of Congress, as its name suggests, mainly serves the Congress, and is located just east of the Capitol, not far from the Capitol.

This seems to be two buildings, but in fact, few people know that the two sides are connected.

This passage, located at the bottom of Independence Avenue, secretly connects the two buildings.

But because it is too secretive, it seems that neither .R nor the purgers know this place.

At least no troops were surrounding them~www.novelbuddy.com~ Under the leadership of Terenei, the three of them quietly Apparated towards the entrance of the Library of Congress.

The entrance is a bronze door, which is now closed.

But for wizards, it's easy to open.

After the three entered the building, in the dim light of the night, the library hall was still shining, showing the classical grandeur of a European court.

Seventy-five-foot ceilings, stained glass skylights, and foil-clad beams complement each other.

At that time, it was simply a nouveau riche decoration.

But one thing is right, the U.S. Library of Congress, as the largest library in the world... is not one of them.

It's not really in vain.
