Chapter 406: The Scepter Devoured by the Serpent

"More than 600 years ago, I took the book back to Beauxbatons from Egypt and put it here!" explains Lemay, "and the seed of the tree was brought in at that time, and I didn't notice that it was caught in the pages. When the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info discovered, it had already begun to sprout and grow, and in the following hundreds of years of alchemy experiments, it absorbed the powerful magic power overflowed by the magic stone, slowly grew, and gradually became what it is today. ”

Aven raised his head and looked up at the huge crystal tree.

Then, his gaze quickly turned to the Book of Abraham in the center of the tree!

As Lemay said before, this is a big, thick magic book.

It looked very old, the pages were made of delicate, smooth bark, a strange lilac color under fluorescence, and the edges had begun to crystallize.

That's right, crystallization!

It's like the huge ancient tree in front of you, they seem to be of the same material.

Evan had the feeling that the pages of the Book of Abraham were made from the strange crystal tree in front of him, and that they were one in themselves.

He took a step forward so he could see better.

The quaint and heavy atmosphere came to his face, and although he did not touch or flip through it, Ai Wen could clearly feel the traces of the passage of time on this book.

It just visited there silently, as if it had never been moved.

Thousands of years have passed, and it is conceivable that countless talented and powerful wizards throughout history have owned this magic book.

Each of them is a powerful wizard who can leave a name in the history of magic, and there have been countless fights and conspiracies around the ownership of this magic book.

As far as the results stand, no matter how many people have ever acquired the Book of Abraham, none of them will be able to know the true secrets it contains.

Lemay should be the one who came closest to the truth, from which he gained endless life and unimaginable wealth.

But he said that his starting point was itself wrong.

Evan took a deep breath, wondering if he would be able to understand the mystery of the book, or be like its previous masters, and end up with deep regret.

He shook his head, hurriedly concentrating.

In front of Aven, the skin of the Book of Abraham was tightly wrapped in a large piece of brass.

It was full of small, intricate lines, and from time to time there were flashes of dark golden brilliance.

The cover at the top is not written with a name, or a horrific pattern drawn like other ancient magic books, as a warning to those who come after it.

On the contrary, it is densely covered with strange words.

Looking at these ancient words, Evan felt vaguely familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Immediately afterward, he realized that these were all ancient magic texts.

It wasn't long ago that he had seen something similar in Hermione's textbook.

Every Thursday night, Hermione spent more than five hours practicing ancient texts on parchment or researching materials to learn new ones.

Because he watched a lot, Evan also learned a lot.

But the ancient scripts in front of him were more ancient and complex than all the ancient scripts he knew, and the strange patterns were twisted and twisted, and they were completely hieroglyphics.

Even if Evan racked his brains, he couldn't understand the meaning of these words.

"The book is yours now, and sooner or later you will know the meaning of these words. As I said, it's a powerful spell. "You don't need to use magic, you can use the power of words alone, and it can be successfully cast." I sincerely hope that you won't have the day to use it. ”

To be able to make Lemay repeatedly tell him, the power of this spell must be beyond imagination.

Looking at the ancient words, many speculations appeared in Aiwen's mind, but in the end, they were all rejected one by one.

You must know that Abraham, as God's spokesman in the world, has power that should not be guessed by mortals at all.

Evan couldn't imagine what kind of spell this would be.

At Lemay's signal, he stepped forward and gently turned the pages of the book.

The pages are heavy, very rough!

Turning it over briefly, it was obvious that the book was divided into three parts, each consisting of seven pages.

On the first page of the first part, there is no text, just a stone is drawn.

With just one look, Evan recognized it as a philosopher's stone.

The next seven pages are all the same ancient scripts as the cover, which contain knowledge related to alchemy, from which Lemay researched how to make the Philosopher's Stone.

On the first page of the second part, again, there is no text, but a pattern.

It was a huge scepter devoured by two giant serpents at both ends of its head and tail, and Aven was surprised to find that he had seen it and the two serpents in other places.

Not so long ago, the beneath the depths of the Alagog's lair was still fresh in my mind.

In the stone chamber where the terrifying eyeball monster was located, Aven saw four magical items left behind by Salazar Slytherin on the last mural.

They were a locket, a ring, a wand, and a scepter surrounded by two large green serpents from bottom to top, and that scepter was the one depicted in the book.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, Evan can be sure.

Except that the scepter is surrounded by two snakes from the bottom up, and the scepter on the painting in front of you is being devoured by two snakes, the rest of the details are exactly the same.

Even the lines on the body are not the slightest different.

Evan was short of breath, he didn't expect that his hunch just now had really come true, and the Book of Abraham had something to do with Slytherin himself.

Salazar may have gone one step further than Lemay, who only had the Philosopher's Stone at hand, and he had only studied the contents of the first part of the book.

Salazar Slytherin had obtained the Serpent's Staff, and it was likely that he had figured out the second part.

There was so little information that Evan had no way of knowing if Salazar had ever gotten the book, and if he was one of the book's owners, why it hadn't been left at Hogwarts, but lost in Ancient Egypt and eventually found by Lemay.

If Salazar hadn't read the Book of Abraham, where did he get the serpent's staff?

Whether he knew what it meant or not was a mystery.

Evan tried to keep his mind down, not to think about these things, and continued to flip backwards.

Behind the scepter devoured by the serpent were six pages of ancient scripts.

The inscriptions were more esoteric and incomprehensible than the ones before them, and Evan felt like a child's scribbles, mere meaningless patterns.

He looked at it for a moment, not having the slightest clue.

No wonder Lemay has been studying for hundreds of years and has not come up with anything.

It seems that the only way to understand the meaning of this text is to find the snake staff left by Salazar Slytherin.

Thinking of this, Evan couldn't help but sigh.

When it comes to Slytherin, there seems to be only endless trouble.

In addition to the evil god created by the dastardly Helbo, there are also his vampire descendants who are facing great hardship. (To be continued.) )
