Chapter 20: The Origin of the Bloodline

Ivan walked through the sea of books with his wand in his hand, without the slightest intention of staying in the ordinary area, and walked straight towards the forbidden book area.

"Guide to Advanced Transfiguration"...Ancient Magic. 》.. "Dementor - Peek into Your Brain"...

Ivan's gaze swept over the rows of bookshelves, and Ivan was fascinated by a large number of forbidden books that were quite high-end at first glance, and even books related to Soul Extraction and Occlumency that he had been longing for.

If he could, Ivan couldn't wait to use hundreds of Xueba experience cards to watch here for ten days and half a month, and then his strength would rise slowly.

But in the end, Ivan resisted the temptation, because he didn't have so many GPAs to redeem, and he hadn't forgotten what he was here for today.

Following the signs in the forbidden book area, Ivan quickly found the seventh row of twelfth column bookshelves, but there didn't seem to be any difference here, a large number of magic books were neatly arranged, piling up the shelves to the brim, leaving no gaps.

Ivan was unwilling to try to find something like a secret passage, but he didn't find anything, but accidentally touched a dark magic book to the ground.

The book is windless and automatic, as if it has its own consciousness, and the pages are automatically turned up, and after a few pages, a billowing black mist pours out from the pages, and you can faintly see a man's head with his mouth wide open, as if screaming loudly!

What frightened Ivan was that he didn't hear any sound, but his eardrums began to bulge, and his brain gradually became a little dizzy, as if someone was really shouting in front of him.

The black fog gathered more and more, and the head seemed to rush out of the book for a while.

Syllable~

Ivan slammed the book shut, slamming his black head against the pages, and as the book was closed, the black fog vanished.

"It's just a book, and you've turned the sky upside down?" Ivan rubbed his ears and gritted his teeth.

It took a long time for Ivan to dare to pick it up, and the cover of the book read "Cutting-edge Black Magic Decryption", and the feel of the cover was obviously different from other books, a bit like the feeling of touching the skin.

It can't be human skin, right?

A thought flashed through Ivan's mind, and Ivan suddenly felt a little chilled, thinking of the painful appearance of the man's head just now, there was really such a possibility.

Ivan glanced at the reward task in the system, and there was no change in the slightest, indicating that it had nothing to do with the reward, so it was really something he accidentally touched.

Ivan had no choice but to stuff the "Cutting-edge Black Arts Decryption" back in frustration, and was about to look for the missing mechanism again, when he suddenly noticed that the bookshelf in front of him seemed to be a little different from just now.

One... Two... Three.. Four.. Five.. Six?

Each bookcase in the forbidden area was exactly the same, and the books were divided according to type, with six rows and seven columns in each row, but Ivan was keenly aware that the cabinet in the twelfth shelf was obviously missing one.

What made Ivan feel a little awkward was that there was obviously a cabinet missing, but the entire shelf was still in the right and neat place, as if the space here had been distorted.

"Someone used a confusion charm here? He also hid one of the cabinets. ”

Ivan narrowed his eyes, he had carefully inspected this bookshelf many times just now, only it was possible that someone had set a confusion charm here, which affected his judgment, and then it happened that the confusion charm he had just broken because of the screaming sound just now.

Even if he knew where the anomaly was, Ivan was a little blind, and after reading "Detailed Explanation of the Principles of Basic Spells", he could probably tell that this was a hidden object spell, but he knew too little magic to be useful.

Ivan had to use his brain to try to recall the books he had read, and stumbled upon a magic that Snape had used in the original books.

"Aparecium!" Ivan tried to place his wand against the bookshelf and whispered the spell of the Transfiguration Charm.

The entire bookshelf began to shake slightly, and a mark cracked in the middle of the twelfth shelf, and after a moment it suddenly expanded again, and a new bookcase appeared in front of Ivan's eyes.

The hidden bookcases didn't look different from the others, they were all filled with thick books, Ivan reached out and swept over these books one by one, and when he touched the last one, the system's prompt sounded truthfully.

[Ding, the reward has been distributed.] 】

The corners of Ivan's mouth twitched, but he was already complaining frantically in his heart,

That's how the rewards are distributed? If it weren't for his luck, if it weren't for his wit, God knows how long it would have been going to take!

This broken system is not intimate at all!

Ivan couldn't help but feel sad when he thought about what other people wanted, as a host, he was so difficult...

Despite thinking so, Ivan excitedly pulled the book out of the shelf, the cover of the book cover was slightly rough, with a few words "Bloodline Origin" printed on it, and the pages were slightly yellowed, as a magic book that can be preserved for a long time, it can be seen that it is very old.

Ivan found that this was another magic book that was not mentioned in the original book, and since it was a reward from the system, Ivan looked through it directly.

After reading a few photos, Ivan was a little disappointed to find that "Bloodline Origin" was not a magic book that recorded powerful spells in his imagination, but rather a bit like a history book, recording the history before the Wizarding War.

At that time, wizards did not dominate the entire wizarding world as they do now, and could even enslave house-elves, magical creatures with extremely strong spell-casting abilities as adults.

On the contrary, compared to these magical creatures who are born with great strength, human wizards are really weak and pitiful, and can only be said to rely on the advantage of numbers to occupy a place in the magical world.

Fortunately, human beings have always been creatures who do not admit defeat.

Some wizards choose to specialize in magic and create more powerful spells to improve their strength. Others focus on some quick fixes... Like taking the power of those powerful magical creatures!

Some wizards have succeeded, their strength has been amazingly improved, and what is even more terrifying is that the power of this bloodline can continue, so that the descendants of these wizards can also gain power.

Although the power of the bloodline may be gradually weakened by iteration, this discovery is enough to make more wizards crazy!

However, the risk of bloodline fusion is extremely high, except for a few who succeeded, most wizards died tragically in the process of experimentation and fusion, and some lucky losers survived, but as a price deformed into monsters, cursed for generations, such as werewolves, vampires, etc.

There are even wizards who choose to breed more powerful and well-suited magical creatures to conduct bloodline fusion experiments to increase their power.

This reminded Ivan of the basilisk sleeping in the secret room and the eight-eyed spider in the Forbidden Forest...

The most frustrating thing is that some wizards find ways to establish super-friendly relationships with magical creatures that are not so unacceptable, in the hope that their offspring will continue each other's bloodline...
