Cai Wen shook his head and explained,
"In fact, most of my spatial spells are ineffective within the Hogwarts area. I was able to teleport here thanks to the [Teleportation Rune], which can only teleport to a fixed point."
"That's pretty awesome too."
Hermione looked at Levin with admiration; this boy had once again accomplished a feat that most people couldn't.
Levin waved his hand and led the two forward to the end of the room.
There is a thick wooden door here.
Pushing open the wooden door, a huge stone storage room comes into view.
Going down the spiral staircase leading to the stone storage room, you enter a huge circular stone chamber.
The stone chamber was empty, except for a magical arched stone door in the center.
In "The Legacy of Hogwarts," the protagonist, who possesses ancient magical talents, can trigger stone doors, revealing the true gateway to his destination.
But in Levin's eyes now, the stone gate is just a stone gate.
"Can we enter the 'map-themed secret room' you mentioned by going down from here?"
Hermione looked at the stone door before her, eager to try.
"【The Cave of Alaho Opens】!"
She immediately used a lock-picking spell.
But there was no response because the stone door was unlocked.
"[Doors Open]!" Hermione exclaimed, casting her usual [Open Door Charm] again.
Or, to put it another way, the "door-kicking curse."
But when the curse struck the stone gate, not a speck of dust was stirred up.
Clearly, the protective spells on this stone door are extremely advanced; none of these opening spells worked.
Hermione then added, "Open Sesame."
However, the "Door-Breaking Curse" also failed to work.
When she couldn't open the door, Hermione cast a series of revealing spells, but they still had no effect.
Helpless, she could only look at Levin.
Levin had already been thinking about it.
The power of ancient magic was immense; at least the spellcaster who created this secret chamber was stronger than I am now.
Given my current skill level, it's clearly impossible to enter by forcibly breaking the curse.
But it doesn't matter, Levin is skilled in more than just ordinary magic.
With his extensive knowledge, he has other means to compete in a different field and achieve a breakthrough.
For example, although the door in front of him was very sturdy and the protective magic was perfect, Levin did not find any interference magic on it.
In other words, Levin could use the magic on the stone door to reverse-engineer the space that would be led to after the stone door was opened.
After all, even the founders here would never have known that someone could accomplish such a thing.
The detailed analysis and precise construction of spell effects is one of the biggest differences between arcane magic and the world of Harry Potter.
If magic in the Harry Potter world is the art of magic...
Therefore, arcane magic is a precise science.
"·【Analysis Portal】!"
With Levin's skill level, he quickly detected the spatial coordinates that the stone gate would lead to after it opened.
Although teleportation is prohibited near Hogwarts, the coordinates between these teleportation portals are naturally connected.
Levin seized this opportunity, using the [Anywhere Door] to connect the two via the existing coordinates between the portals, bringing them to their destination.
They easily bypassed the portal.
There's a saying in business warfare that goes something like this.
What might take you down isn't your competitors, but those from other industries!
The other end of the portal was a dimly lit hall.
The hall was lavishly decorated, with a huge, smooth marble floor and golden plant patterns covering the floor, pillars, and walls, making the entire hall exceptionally magnificent.
The hall was empty except for a small stone platform in the center, on which sat a stone basin with a magic book floating on top.
"This is... a Pensieve?"
Hermione exclaimed, “I’ve read about it in the books. The books say that the Pensieve allows people to see other people’s memories.”
The Pensieve is a very precious magical item, and its quantity is now very small.
As far as Levin knew, only the Ministry of Magic and the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts had such a thing.
The three stepped forward, and the magic book immediately opened automatically, from which a little bit of silver liquid seeped into the basin.
“What is that, mercury?” Hermione asked.
"No, this is a memory, a memory left for those who come to see."
"Let's see what our predecessors, who left behind these memories, want to tell us."
Levin set up a warning spell nearby, then the three of them stepped forward and immersed their heads in the Pensieve.
Chapter 118 Digging a Burial Mine
The memory was short; soon the three of them raised their heads from in front of the Pensieve.
Hermione's first words were: "Ancient magic, how terrifying!"
Although I've already heard about the power of ancient magic from Levin...
But after witnessing it with their own eyes, she and Ciri were still awestruck by the immense power of ancient magic.
In fact, not only them, but even Leben himself was slightly shocked.
The memory before me is different from that in the game.
The memories in the game come from an earlier guardian—that is, a user of ancient magic.
They were the ones who led the game's protagonist, a transfer student, onto the path of ancient magic after his arrival.
The memory before us was left by the previous generation's guardian, who is also the protagonist of the game, the transfer student himself.
This document records how he gradually mastered ancient magic, fought against evil fairies, and ultimately defeated them, preventing the fairies from using the lingering poison of ancient magic to corrupt the entire magic world.
In his memory, Levin not only truly witnessed the terrifying power emanating from that evil emotion, but also saw the ancient magic manifest in reality.
What does it mean to turn someone into a powder keg and then detonate it?
What do you mean by remotely controlling the enemy and then smashing them to the ground?
Shrink the enemy, pull them over, and stomp them to death.
Summon lightning to shatter the enemy...
The most classic move is the [Avada Kedavra]: mark every enemy on the field with magic, and then kill them all with an [Avada Kedavra] curse.
This destructive power was so extreme that even Voldemort would have called it extreme.
This memory naturally also records the outcome of the 673rd battle.
Just as Levin had suspected, the transfer student did not absorb the power of negative emotions, but instead sealed it in the underground cavity.
Hermione frowned slightly and said, "Unfortunately, this memory ends here. The Guardian didn't leave any further clues in the memory."
Levin shook his head: "No, it's not that there are no clues, but only those with ancient magical talents can see the corresponding clues."
"Even you can't see that clue?" Ciri asked.
"No, but seeing clues and being able to trigger clues are two different things."
Levin replied.
He was certainly able to detect clues to ancient magic.
After all, the essence of ancient magic is the power of primordial emotions, and his psychic abilities can easily detect this power.
But he's a time traveler, not a native of this world, so how could he possibly inherit ancient magic?
“So, we can’t go any further, right?” Ciri frowned.
But Levin just smiled slightly.
"No, I have another way."
"What should a wizard do when he can't find his way? He should use divination spells, of course."
Unlike the unreliable and vague prophecies of the Harry Potter world, which are often attributed to innate talent or metaphysical methods...
The divination spells in arcane magic have a certain degree of rigor.
use.
To find the place where ancient magic was passed down, the "Map Chamber" leading to the underground cavern, Levin also had the magic he could use.
"However, this spell lasts for quite a while, so you can eat something and rest here first."
After saying that, Levin took out a table, chairs, snacks, and black tea from his wallet and set up a late-night snack in the room.
Hermione even noticed that there were a few spellbooks thoughtfully placed on the tea table, perhaps to keep her from getting bored.
"So, you've been carrying these things with you all along, haven't you?"
Seeing the tea party laid out before her, Ciri couldn't help but complain.
"What a refined life!"
"Now that you've become a mage, why not treat yourself better?" Levin said matter-of-factly.
Magic should be something that makes life easier.
Hermione also thought the scene before her was outrageous.
But her attention was focused on why such a small wallet could hold such a large set of tables and chairs.
