Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Ravenclaw Collection

To Maple's surprise, the eagle's head knocker did not open another portal, and Maple entered the Ravenclaw common room.

The common room in Ravenclaw is a large circular room with tasteful arched windows open on the walls, and blue and bronze silks are hung. The ceiling is domed with stars painted on it, and the dark blue carpet below is also covered with stars.

It's more like a library than a lounge. The shelves against the wall are densely packed with all kinds of books, which are more complete and rich than those in the school library. However, if you deduct the notes and books donated by Ravenclaw graduates, the number of books on the shelves here will be inferior to the number of books in the school library, but not too much, only about two or three percent.

It's no wonder that Ravenclaw is a college full of smart people, but they rarely go to the library.

Of course, there are no forbidden books in the collection that students are prohibited from, and in this regard, the forbidden section of the school library has saved some face.

In the center of the common room, there is also the marble statue of the famous Lady Ravenclaw. The half-length Ravenclaw statue wears a replica crown on its head, and on the crown is the most famous phrase of Lady Ravenclaw—

Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest treasure of mankind!

Could it be that the secret collection room is still in the common room in Ravenclaw?

"Hello, you don't seem to be a Ravenclaw student, do you?" A Ravenclaw girl walked over and looked surprised when she saw Maple.

Very few students from other houses came in the Ravenclaw common room, and they had to answer a more difficult question than Ravenclaw, even if a Ravenclaw student brought it. Of course, there are some special cases, such as Harry's invisibility cloak, one of the three holy weapons, which can hide the sight of the eagle's head knocker and sneak in behind Ravenclaw.

In addition to this, there is also the Transfiguration of the Animagus, which can be accessed through a window by a flying Animagus like Maple.

There are very few students in the outer courtyard who can enter Ravenclaw, let alone at such a young age as Maple, so this Ravenclaw girl feels so surprised.

The majority of Ravenclaw students are girls, so are girls smarter than boys overall?

Just as Maple was about to speak, he suddenly saw a few stars on the ceiling suddenly glow, and the starlight fell like a waterfall of light. Maple's mouth opened in surprise, but when he looked at the Ravenclaw girl, the other party's gaze remained on him, as if oblivious to the sudden scattering of starlight.

Am I the only one who can see?

To be sure, there must have been some kind of close connection between the stars on the ceiling and the eagle's head knocker, but it's incredible that the magic that can be cast to such an extent, and that it is a magic left over from thousands of years ago! The magic of Ravenclaw himself is beyond imagination!

Maple then noticed that the starlight from the ceiling was not shining elsewhere, but was falling on the dark blue carpet on the ground.

The star pattern on the carpet also reacted immediately after absorbing the starlight from the dome, just like Maple's stereoscopic projection, firing beams of light into the sky, and the beams emitted by all the stars intertwined to form a circular light and shadow mirror like foam. From the phantom mirror, which resembled a thin film, Maple faintly saw the outline of a door inside.

It turns out that the entrance to the secret treasure trove is here!

Maple looked at the girl and thought it was a good moment to pretend to be a force!

"My name is Maple, Maple Aribas!" After saying that, Maple stepped directly into the light mirror in front of the girl's eyes and disappeared.

"Ahh After hearing Maple's name, it already surprised the Ravenclaw girls. Maple, who is in the limelight, there are not many people in the school who don't know. But when Maple suddenly seemed to have stepped into some kind of entrance and disappeared, she was even more smacked. As a member of Ravenclaw, how could she not know that secret treasure trove of Ravenclaw.

No one had entered the secret room for years, and the Ravenclaws thought it was just a legend, like the Slytherin chambers.

However, the appearance of Celia Doraks corrected their notions, and it turned out that the legend was true, and that Lady Ravenclaw had really left them a secret treasure trove.

But now, it wasn't enough for a student from the Outer Courtyard of Maple to break into the common room of their house, and to enter the secret vault in front of a Ravenclaw student, which broke their old beliefs.

The Ravenclaw girl stood still, as if transformed into a statue, and did not move for a long time.

At the same time, the Eagle's Head Knocker also began to ask Hermione, and it came directly to a very difficult question: "What is the nature of magic?" ”

"The interweaving of the unreal and the real, the bridge between the material and the spiritual!" Hermione replied for a while and said, Originally, she might have been stumped by this question, but when she used Maple's card to experience his past, especially Maple's imagination that magic is made of physical energy and mental energy after the transformation of Animagus, Hermione, who was already extremely smart, had a deep understanding, so she could answer so beautifully at this moment.

"It's incredible! You're the first student at Hogwarts to answer this question and do so well!

Yes, most wizards only stay at the stage of chanting spells according to the map, but few people can think that the so-called spells are actually the idea of the inventor's spirit to transform matter, and magic is the product of the illusory spirit projection into the real world. ”

"Very good, I originally came up with a problem to stump you and make you retreat. After all, the fact that Ravenclaw's Treasure Room was visited by students from two other houses in a row may not be easy for Ravenclaw students to accept. But it seems that I am thinking too narrowly, and your answer is so wonderful that it surprises me! ”

"Can I tell me your name?" The eagle's head knocker asked again.

"Hermione Granger!" Hermione's face flushed from praise, but her heart was full of joy.

"Yes, Miss Granger, it's rude, but I think you're a better fit for Ravenclaw." Said the eagle's head knocker.

"Yes, the Sorting Hat did consider placing me in Ravenclaw, but chose to put me in Gryffindor." Hermione replied.

"It turned out to be the broken hat, I think it must have been with Dumbledore for a long time, and its head has become confused!" The words of the eagle's head knocker instantly stunned Hermione and Ginnieresse, and they didn't know what to do with the eagle's head knocker for a while.

"Well, beautiful and wise Lady Granger, you have won the favor of Ravenclaw. I won't repeat what I just said, good luck! ”

"Finally, a little hint for you, Ravenclaw has a lot of private collections, and if you don't know how to choose, you can pray to Ravenclaw in the collection room—"

"Alright, please come in, Miss Granger!" The eagle's head knocker spoke, leaving the entrance to the Ravenclaw common room open to Hermione.

And in the secret treasury, Maple suffers from a choice problem.

In Ravenclaw's private collection, there are also books without any black magic as well as various forbidden books. With Ravenclaw's own self-confidence, he probably believes that the positive force is strong enough to be able to defeat the black magic.

Although the collection of books is much smaller than that of the library, it still fills three shelves that reach up to the roof.

And every book here is more precious than most of the library's shelves, a whole shelf of books.

In this small space, there is not only the prohibition of space, but also the inability to enter or exit through phantom shifting, and the inability to locate the spatial orientation. And with the wisdom and magic of Ravenclaw, perhaps the magic of the house-elves cannot escape the powerful spatial confinement here.

In this hidden space, there is a powerful forbidden realm, and Maple cannot use his wand to cast any of his magic, except for the Animagus.

However, although Maple could not cast magic, he wanted to pick up a certain book in a high place, and as long as he pointed in that direction, the book would automatically fly into his hand. As soon as he let go, the book flew back to its original place.

The book here can be opened casually, but it is blank except for the title and introduction.

Maple understood that the handwriting on the book would only be visible after he had chosen a book.

There are ancient magic and ancient alchemy that have now lost their inheritance, as well as powerful ancient summoning magic and super magic casting. But Ravenclaw, as always, tested the people who had her treasure, and according to the introduction, she did not directly provide spells for all of these powerful spells, but only theories and ideas.

It took a lot of time to pick and choose, and Maple finally made her choice. If he could only choose one book, he didn't choose those seemingly powerful and very powerful knowledge, but chose the most suitable one for himself, and he finally chose a book on the principle of constant frequency of magic.

It explains in detail the principles of mana frequencies and their effects on spellcasting, as well as the theory and introduction of the constant state of mana.

And this constant state, according to the magic can last for a long time, there are moments that end for a short time, and there are eternities that never die. For example, Dumbledore's eternal and unquenchable Goublai Immortal Fire.

There are short-term, medium-term, long-term, and long-term spells, some spells that expire when the caster dies, and some spells that persist after death. Harry's mother's guardian magic, for example, doesn't end until Harry comes of age. There is also the magic set by the founding four of this castle, which still exists in the castle today. It's just that I don't know if the magic they left behind will be as eternal as the Ghublai Immortal Fire, or if it will gradually weaken with the passage of time, but it will disappear slowly, or if it will allow the successors to continue to replenish their magic and maintain their intact state.
