Harry Potter and the Old Ones

On this quiet and charming night, the desert near the George Crater Mountains is in a mysterious and peaceful atmosphere.

Beside the bonfire, several folding chairs were placed haphazardly, and some of the chairs fell to the ground, showing the traces of the busyness and exhaustion of the scientific expedition team during the day. The team members were either lying in sleeping bags or leaning on simple camp beds, each immersed in sweet dreams after fatigue.

The surrounding desert appears even more mysterious in the night, with the soft sand gently rolling in the breeze, seemingly telling secrets that have not been known for tens of thousands of years. Occasionally, one or two calls of nocturnal animals in the distance break the silence, and then the silence returns to boundless silence.

The wind and sand that had been raging during the day seemed to have slowed down a lot, revealing a starry sky above the camp, dotted with stars, and the Milky Way stretching across the sky like a shining river.

A bright full moon hung high in the sky, casting silver-white moonlight, covering the desert with a mysterious veil.

The undulating sand dunes under the moonlight form a wonderful interplay of light and shadow, giving this ancient land an otherworldly beauty.

In such a quiet environment, with only the faint crackle of the campfire and the rustling of the tent fabric in the night breeze, people feel an indescribable sense of peace and tranquility away from the hustle and bustle.

However, just beneath the surface, where everything seems to be peaceful, some subtle changes are taking place quietly.

Beside the bonfire, the scientific expedition team members were immersed in sleep, breathing the cool night breeze calmly under the starry sky.

But at the edge of the camp, illuminated only by the glow of the campfire, there were slight, almost imperceptible vibrations in the sand, too subtle to be picked up by even the most sensitive seismic instruments.

These vibrations gradually spread, and slowly, the sand began to show small cracks.

These cracks are not normal cracks in the earth, but something seems to be moving slowly and deliberately deep underground, pushing against the sand.

These activities might have been noticed during the day, but under the cover of night, this strange phenomenon went completely unnoticed.

At the same time, behind a hidden sand dune not far from the camp, a pair of eyes with an unusual light were peering at all this from the darkness.

Those pupils projected a strange green light, vaguely reflecting starlight. Those eyes belonged to nocturnal creatures in the desert, but their size and twinkling eyes gave off a unique aura——

It's not like what ordinary desert creatures can have.

What's more profound is that the ordinary desert sound is slightly abnormal at this moment.

The sound of the fine sand rubbed by the breeze is mixed with almost imperceptible low calls. They are so subtle that perhaps only the desert itself can hear them.

These voices seemed to come from deep underground, with an ancient and indescribable tone, as if the beings imprisoned here since ancient times were calling their companions.

Although these visions occurred quietly, they were not detectable by human senses, and the scientific expedition team members continued their deep sleep.

Even the inspectors left by the scientific expedition team to watch overnight did not notice anything strange in the desert surrounding the camp.

As the night gets darker, the subtle vibrations slowly stop, and the cracks seem to disappear quietly as the desert repairs itself.

But those pairs of mysterious green eyes did not leave, they continued to observe in the dark.

"Ha" Tiera, who had been pretending to be asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, chuckled, turned over, and continued to sleep.

Time, the most mysterious and wonderful thing in the universe——

Its singularity lies not only in its intangibility and universality, but also in its potential plasticity.

When Muggle science fiction talks about time travel, they usually imagine a grand vision of traveling into the past, trying to change certain events in history to create a different present, but—

Time is not a simple one-way street that can travel back and forth, it is more like a complex network with the ability to adjust itself.

When time travelers engage in time travel, especially going back in time to intervene in a situation, they are actually introducing an aberration into the fabric of time.

Such aberrations may initially appear to cause major historical changes, such as preventing a far-reaching event.

However, time itself seems to possess a unique elasticity, a self-correcting mechanism, which is often referred to as the "conclusion of time" in magical time theory.

This converging nature means that although the time traveler may have implemented changes at some point in history, the timeline will automatically take steps to "fix" those changes.

Time will use an unexpected "butterfly effect" to repair, correct or delay the changes caused by time travellers.

Changes made in the past will be postponed to the current time node in some form.

Such a convergence characteristic causes the changing effects of time travel to either stay at the intervened time node.

This node is like a shaken water surface. Although the ripples will spread outward, they will eventually become calm.

Either keep delaying and delaying until the node before the crossing that caused the change reveals its impact.

So while the immediate changes caused by time travelers may seem significant, the timeline ultimately incorporates these changes into its own continuum in subtle and complex ways.

In this framework, the impacts on the current point in time are the direct result of historical self-adjustment processes.

This results in a relatively stable sense of reality, although the details of its composition may vary due to the involvement of time travel.

This extended treatment of influences guarantees some form of integrity and continuity in the history of the universe, although we may never fully understand its complexity and full extent.

The concept of time therefore involves countless possibilities and variables.

Within this theoretical framework, we can see time as not just a sequence of events, but as a living entity with its own defense mechanisms and repair capabilities.

This uniqueness of time attempts to maintain its own structure and order in the face of distortions and disturbances, and this process of self-repair is often full of unpredictability and creativity.

In this understanding of time, time travel is not just a physical jump, it is a profound touch on the texture of the universe. Every time and space travel, every historical fine-tuning, leaves a unique mark on this huge cosmic network.

Although these marks may be healed by the self-correction mechanism of time, the attempts and changes they represent are still challenges and contributions to the order of the universe.

Therefore, Tiera's operation to deviate the meteorite from its orbit 150 million years ago did not have an impact on the timeline 150 million years ago, but because of the convergence of time itself, this impact was postponed to today. .
