Chapter 1112: The Cage

The ancient and incomprehensible custom of why vampires sleep in cramped coffins is no longer known. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But undoubtedly, seeing the rows of coffins in such a gloomy room can't help but send chills down your back.

Especially if you look closely, many of the coffins are sprinkled with dark red blood clots, silently telling the dark history of the past.

Judging from the traces of the distribution of blood clots, it looks like some kind of living creature like a human being was pressed down on a coffin, and then bitten down......

In addition, these coffins were tall and large, and the coffin lid was pressed against a boulder, as if afraid of the contents escaping.

The surrounding walls are chilling portraits of vampires with gloomy faces and evil spirits, and unlike the usual portraits in the wizarding world, they are more like Muggle portraits without magic, but with eyes that seem to move, staring at you deadly.

The old legends of vampires, the eerie atmosphere, the rows of coffins, the terrifying portraits, these elements are stacked together, and this place is like the final scene that would only appear in a horror movie, but what makes Evan feel uncomfortable the most is the chaos of magic in the room.

He could be sure that there were countless powerful spells in the place, and if there was the slightest mistake, he would touch something that shouldn't be touched.

Even Gringotts' most heavily defended vault can't compare to this place.

"This is the council hall. Elaine said, her voice echoing through the room.

This hall is specially designed to make small sounds resonate loudly for a long time.

"It's guarded all year round, and I rarely come to this place because I can't disturb the souls of my ancestors, and when I was a child, my mother told me that powerful ancestors would be buried here after they died, waiting for them to wake up from their slumber. ”

"Suck it from its slumber, you mean immortality?"

Evan looked at the coffin closest to him, saying that it really contained the corpse of a vampire.

Or more accurately, the body of an undead being, as they wake up.

This sounds a lot like the ancient Egyptian tradition, where pharaohs and shamans believed that life was reincarnated and that they would eventually return to this world after death. Hermione said, also carefully examining the intricate patterns on the coffin, "That's why they mummified their corpses, and last summer, when Aven and I traveled to Egypt, we saw similar ruins, especially the text left by Osiris the god of death in the Great Pyramid: Wake up from your slumber, your vision can overcome all the ...... that hurt you."

"That's right, but there's no magic in that text. "It will not awaken the dead pharaoh from his slumber." ”

In the study of the forbidden art of life, the three most accomplished classics of Egypt are the "Golden Book of the Sun", the "Black Book of the Dead" and the "Jade Record", of which the "Jade Record" records the mysteries of alchemy, and without the decryption of the "Book of Abraham", it is difficult to know the real secrets hidden in it.

Even if you know it, you won't be able to successfully refine the Philosopher's Stone.

As for the remaining two texts, they were all drowned in history with the fall of Pharaoh Babises II.

Without the help of magic, even those who were once powerful spellcasters would not be able to return to this world.

"It's not that it's immortal, but special magic can allow powerful vampire warriors to survive in another form. "Of course, apart from respect for ancestors, the main reason why the council hall is generally not approached is because it is a place that leads to seals, and there are many dangerous magic in it. ”

He tapped his wand lightly on the side of the coffin three times, and the coffin slowly moved to the left, revealing a crypt.

"I'm the first one, being careful not to step on the specially marked steps. ”

Kerexis walked down the exposed staircase, marking it from time to time, turning the staircase he couldn't step on green.

Hermione, Elaine, and Evan walked into the secret passage in turn, each paying attention and carefully.

The vampire's defenses are indeed tight, after all, it is related to the terrifying evil god in the seal.

Without knowing the right way, it would be difficult for even a wizard of Voldemort's strength to reach the sealed place beneath the castle.

To be more accurate, this is a cage, the one left behind by Salazar Slytherin.

Now, they're going to be in this cage.

After about ten minutes down the eerie secret passage, Elaine came to a sharp stop, her face turning pale.

"I heard that voice, a cold voice, no warmth, no emotion. She said slowly, her body and voice trembling, "It speaks of fate, destiny from the bloodline, and salvation in the darkness is only through surrender to it......"

"It's the voice of the evil god's body, it's getting stronger and stronger!" Keresis' face was also unsightly.

His breathing grew heavier, and he seemed unable to resist, allowing the evil god to whisper in his ear.

Evan and Hermione looked at each other, and neither of them heard anything.

Because of the power of the seal, the whispers of the evil god's body can only be heard by vampires who have a blood connection to it.

Because of the power in their blood, they had no way to resist at all, they could only resist hard, trembling in the dark.

"Divine Guardian!" Evan waved his wand upwards to summon the Patronus.

Beside him, Hermione summoned her own Patronus as well.

The silver light fell, and the positive force dispelled the whispers of darkness and evil gods, and the state of Karesis and Elaine gradually improved.

"Let me do it, Hermione!" said Aven, "and my magic keeps the Patronus running. ”

Hermione nodded, dispersing the magic while Evan controlled the Patronus to fall onto Elaine's shoulder.

"What a pretty kitten!" Elaine said, looking at the Patronus on her shoulder, "it's in your Animagus form." ”

After evolving, Aven's patronus has obviously become a leopard, but Elaine can't tell the difference between a leopard and a cat.

"The voice, it's gone!" Elaine said, closing her eyes, "but I can feel it's still around here." ”

"The further down the seal, the weaker the remaining power of the seal, the stronger its influence becomes, and you will hear its whispers as you enter the core. Keresis said with concern, "Hermione, Elaine, you can wait for us up there......"

"I'm staying!" Elaine shook her head hurriedly, "With Aven's Patronus here, I'm not afraid of anything." ”

"I can summon a Patronus to protect myself. Hermione followed suit, not planning to leave.

"I'm sure the two of them are okay and I'm going to protect them. Evan said, looking at Hermione, who was determined, and Elaine, who was clenched into small fists, "By the way, Kalesis, you can't use the Patronus Charm?"
