Chapter 195: Character Keys and Clues

Ivan rolled his eyes, although he didn't understand how beautiful Luna's airship was, but the other party obviously didn't take it because of this, and it was even more of a dream to expect the other party to come back...

But he's an owl now, and he can't use the Flying Charm or help Luna.

【Ding,Explore the Ravenclaw Girls' Dormitory.】 】

The system's prompt sounded in his head, and Ivan's expression froze, which meant that he should go.

"Thank you for showing me around, I think I have to leave now." Ivan flapped his wings and flew into the air, and spoke.

"Why did you leave?" Luna's pale eyes looked at him curiously, making Ivan a little uncomfortable.

Just when Ivan wondered if he was exposed, he heard the little witch say in an ethereal singing voice.

"That's not good, you haven't helped me deliver the letter yet?"

Messenger?

Ivan rolled his eyes before remembering that he had told Luna that he had delivered the letter instead of her father's owl...

I didn't expect Luna to remember it all the time, but Ivan didn't have the time to do it, and he really wanted to be an owl delivering letters.

While Ivan was struggling with how to refuse, a gray-white owl staggered in through the open window.

Ivan's expression was slammed, and he was inexplicably a little weak, because it was the one he had knocked out before.

The gray-white owl shook violently at the sight of Ivan, and was so frightened that it almost fell from the sky.

It wasn't until he saw Luna on the side that he fluttered her wings excitedly and pounced, and kept shouting in her mouth.

"Is that so? The owl that looks like you snatched your letter and knocked you unconscious? Luna's face showed a look of surprise, but when she turned her head to look over, she found that Ivan was nowhere to be seen.

Walking to the window, Luna looked out and realized that the strange owl had flown away...

Ivan flew high in the sky, turned his head to look over, and saw Luna standing outside the window, and the owl that was "cooing" in protest, and couldn't help but feel a sense of joy.

"It's good that I slipped away!" Ivan muttered to himself, then turned around and flew the other way, he still had to go to the boys' dormitory...

Taking advantage of the night, Ivan used the form of Animagus to explore Hogwarts at will, exploring all the Slytherin and Hufflepuff common rooms.

[Ding, explore the Hufflepuff Lounge, and the progress of exploring Hogwarts has reached seventy-one percent.] Do you want to claim your rewards? 】

After Ivan wandered around again, he finally completed the quest he had been obsessing about.

"Claim your reward!" Ivan spoke.

The next moment, a large number of strange characters suddenly appeared in Ivan's mind,

These characters looked extremely strange, not any kind of script he knew, nor did they look like ancient magic scripts, and the most important thing was that the hints given by the system confusing Ivan.

"These characters are the key!" Ivan muttered the information that the system fed back to his mind.

Even then Ivan didn't have any clues, there were too few hints,

What does this mean exactly?

How do you use a string of characters as a key?

If you have a key, where is the "door"?

Ivan was very depressed, and his mind moved, and suddenly remembered the task of the mystery of the bloodline, and after opening the system bar, he found that the progress of the task had changed.

[Mission: The Mystery of the Bloodline.]

Objective: To find a way to fuse multiple bloodlines

Current mission progress: 15 percent

Reward: Legendary value*1

......】

"Ten percent increase in progress?" Ivan was stunned for a moment, it seemed that his previous guess was not wrong, and completing the exploration mission was indeed a breakthrough.

If you can figure out what this string of payments means, you may be able to find a way to fuse multiple bloodlines.

Thinking of this, Ivan prepared to go to the library to look up books about the text and see if he could get to decipher the characters.

As for continuing to push the quest to 100% progress in exploring Hogwarts and get more information?

Ivan didn't have this idea at all, the whole Hogwarts was too big and mysterious, he had already explored all the places he could, but even then he could only push the progress of the mission to 71%.

Ivan felt that even if he had spent seven school years here, he might not be able to get the full picture of the castle.

......

A few days have passed in a blink of an eye.

While Ivan was in the library, looking up the meaning of the characters, Wood restarted Quidditch training and summoned all the players to the Quidditch pitch in the evening.

Considering the possible number of Legends and Lore points, Ivan had to take some time off to continue practicing his flying skills.

After an afternoon of training, Ivan was about to return to the dormitory to take a shower and rest, but was stopped by sneaky George and Fred.

"What's wrong?" Ivan looked at the two people in front of him and said strangely.

"Do you remember last semester when we said we were going to ask you to be our special advisor?" George said mysteriously.

"Of course," Ivan nodded, and then, as if thinking of something, asked with some surprise. "Your magic trick shop is going to be officially opened?"

"Yes!" George and Fred said in unison.

"We found a suitable place to use as our base." George said happily, and Fred continued.

"So we wanted to invite you to take a look..."

Did they find the Room of Requirement? Ivan thought so at the first time, but after following the two to the so-called secret base, he found out that this was not the case.

It's just a storage room that looks like it's been abandoned for a long time, it's the size of a classroom, and it's already stacked with a lot of items needed to make magic props...

George proudly took Ivan to inspect the layout, and explained aloud

"This place was discovered by Fred and I by accident, we have been observing it for a long time, and no one has been to this place for a long time, so we have tidied up this place and temporarily used it as a testing ground and station for magic trick workshops!"

"Looks pretty good," Ivan nodded, looking at the half-finished joke toy items on the table.

Fred excitedly pointed to two of the new props and introduced them to Ivan.

"This is a decoy bomb, as long as you throw it, it will run around, and it is perfect to use it to create chaos!"

"That's a whoosh—a whoosh, one of our masterpieces!"

"Thanks to the ideas you told us during the summer, and two hundred gold galleons for research grants, we were able to come up with so many interesting things." Fred said with a smile.
