Chapter 55: A Ravenclaw Study

Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff founded Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry around 990 AD.

At that time, Europe was in the dark Middle Ages, witch hunts were in full swing, and a large number of witches were persecuted, most of whom were young wizards who could not control their magic.

The establishment of Hogwarts, in addition to protecting these young wizards, did not mean to pass on magic. In the era of the Big Four, the inheritance of magic was mainly in the form of a teacher, and it was not on a large scale. In the general environment at that time, except for the big families, ordinary wizards rarely communicated with each other, which led to the loss of many magics.

Since the founding of Hogwarts, Rowena Ravenclaw has been collecting lost magic and recreating the greatness of ancient magic. But unfortunately, when she started this work, Europe had been in turmoil for four or five hundred years, and a large number of magic books and documents had been burned, and she could only look for clues in the pile of old papers.

After Slytherin left Hogwarts, she also chose to leave to travel. After searching for countless ruins and visiting many reclusive wizards, when Ravenclaw finally returned to Hogwarts, she wrote down the manuscript records and remained in this room.

Quietly waiting.

Looking through the manuscripts, Ike felt for the first time that his "knowledge mastery" skills were not strong enough, and there were many things that he couldn't understand at all.

For example, the manuscript mentions a celestial magic, and its spell is an ancient magic script, which needs to be pronounced correctly. And these magic texts cannot be found in the "Detailed Explanation of Ancient Demon Texts" at all.

In order to fully understand what was on the manuscript, Ike thought he might have to go back to the Ravenclaw research route.

Gradually, it is possible.

From the 11th century to the present, the magic heritage in Europe has experienced several crises of severance, and with the signing of the International Wizard Secrecy Law, coupled with the self-isolation and extinction of pure-blood nobles, modern magic is basically built on ruins. What Ike had to do was restore the ruins to their original state, which was unimaginably difficult.

"To re-make a plan, some are busy......"

Ike put down the manuscript and pushed the door open and left the secret room.

I don't know how long I stayed inside, but it was already dark when I came out. Ike came to the Great Hall, and dinner had been going on for a while.

"Ike! There are lamb chops today! Stewart's voice rang out, and Ike smiled and sat down in greeting.

Terry took a piece of roasted golden lamb chops and put it on the plate in front of Ike, who thanked him and took a bite, which was very fat.

"Where have you been? No one was seen all afternoon. Stewart asked.

"Where else could he go? Library. Terry cut the steak and replied casually.

"Isn't it! It's just the beginning of school Ike! You're going to stress us out a lot. Michael quipped with a laugh.

"What pressure can there be?" Ike put down the lamb chops, poured himself a glass of pumpkin juice and took a sip, "Anyway, no matter how hard you try, you can't get better than me." ”

"You ...... It's easy to go without friends, Ike. Stewart choked and looked at Ike with an unkind expression.

"What? I still have friends! Ike looked surprised, his eyes widened, and he looked at Stewart in surprise, which made everyone laugh.

In this way, they ate while joking with each other, and Ike didn't finish eating until it was almost eight o'clock. I playfully returned to the common room, sat on the sofa and chatted for a while, until sleepiness rose and I went back to the dormitory.

For more than a week, Ike went in and out with Stuart and the others, like a normal Hogwarts wizard, living rooms, classrooms, auditoriums, classrooms, dormitories, three o'clock and one line, and even the library rarely went to the library.

But on the first night of October, when Stuart and Terry were asleep, Ike put a spell on himself and quietly left the dormitory.

For most of the month, Ike has been silently revising the plan. According to his previous plan, he did not plan to go on too frequent night trips this school year.

Until the threat of the basilisk is lifted, night travel is undoubtedly very dangerous.

Who knows if the big guy in the chamber will sneak out on his own, especially now that it's likely to be awakened.

But after looking at the Ravenclaw manuscripts, Ike felt a sense of urgency.

It's as if time is running out, and everything has to be rushed.

Perhaps the curse of knowledge? After seeing the amazing research, Ike had a hard time suppressing his thirst for knowledge.

From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with the Sorting Hat, he is indeed a Ravenclaw.

Sneaking into the forbidden book area, Ike first took the Forbidden Magic, which contained the Traceless Stretching Spell and the Phantom Movement method. After putting the books away, Ike went straight to the language bookshelf and took four books from top to bottom.

"Wizard Language", "Humanoid Race Language", "Communicating with Fantastic Beasts" and "Magical Language" are the purpose of Ike's trip!

For a long time, Ike didn't pay much attention to ancient magic texts, and although he often read related books, he mostly read them as extracurricular reading. However, the Ravenclaw manuscript makes it clear that the importance of ancient magic is the only way to reproduce the greatness of ancient magic.

However, it is very difficult to learn ancient magic texts, especially many of the Ravenclaw manuscripts that have not been included in modern textbooks, and it is difficult to decipher them. Thankfully, Ike found another way.

Learn the language of magical creatures!

Unlike wizards, magical creatures are born with magic, and there is even a theory that the original magic came from those magical creatures. Leave it aside to find out if this is true or not, the language of magical creatures is indeed magical.

For example, mermaids, those mermaid tribes in the depths of the ocean, still inherit an ancient mermaid language that can cause tsunamis and storms. This magical language is awkward, but in some pronunciations it resembles ancient magical scripts.

Similarly, snake language and dragon language are spoken. The Parseltongue has always been considered evil, not only because of its creepy pronunciation, but also because it is indeed capable of inducing magic as a spell.

Although the Parseltongue is more dependent on the inheritance of bloodline, it can also be learned. In Ike's memory, Ron had used snake language to open the door to the Chamber of Secrets during the final battle. Even if it's just a "open", it's enough to prove it.

Learning the snake language is placed by Ike behind learning the Traceless Stretching Charm, second in his plan.

All it was only because of a Slytherin-derived spell on the Ravenclaw manuscript that needed to be driven in the language of snakes.

And its function is perception.

Range, a mile radius!
