A broken Hogwarts

Chapter 63 Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets

"Look, that's Owen Shafik!"

"The guy with Harry Potter who almost flooded Hogwarts with paper?"

Owen was walking in the corridor where the little wizards gathered, under the whispers around him and the attention of everyone, he realized that he seemed to be... on fire.

Unexpectedly, he finally got rid of the stupid title of Gryffindor's nemesis, and now there is another Hogwarts legend?If he had an achievement system or something, he should have been rewarded with a great spell by now, maybe there are three unforgivable curses around him...

"Sure enough, no matter where it is, gold will always shine." Owen joked to himself, not forgetting to nod gracefully and politely to the little wizards who passed by.

After passing through two secret doors and a shortcut, he got rid of everyone and stood in a corridor on the eighth floor.On the wall beside him hung a tapestry in which a troll beat Barnabas with a stick. The troll in the tapestry waved a huge stick and roared at Owen with a ferocious face.

Owen walked back and forth in front of the empty wall opposite, silently saying "I want to enter the secret room left by Ravenclaw" in his heart.After going back and forth three times, the Room of Response did not respond.

"Trouble, is the password wrong?" Owen stopped, frowning and meditating.He knew that when one conjures a room out of the Room of Requirement, one can set an entry code to keep out unwanted visitors.

"Wait..." He thought for a while, and continued to wander around the wall, silently chanting the most representative quote of Ravenclaw: "Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest wealth of human beings."

After going back and forth three times, the flat wall suddenly rippled like water waves, and a gorgeous bronze door quietly emerged, with exquisite classical patterns carved on it, full of mysterious beauty.

Without encountering more tests, the door slid open silently, and inside was a circular room paved with marble. The ceiling directly reflected the outside sky, like a dome made of glass connecting the sky.

In the center of the circular room stands a huge marble statue. The statue is a solemn and beautiful woman, wearing a gorgeous crown on her head, holding a magic wand inlaid with a crystal ball in her right hand, and her sapphire eyes seem to be Silently watching the distant sky.

Owen stepped into the room, and the door behind him closed silently.He walked around the statue in the circular room, but there was nothing here except the central sculpture, only a marble platform at the foot of the sculpture was carved with a lifelike eagle head, and the sapphire eyes seemed to be alive watching him.

"Welcome to Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets." A melodious female voice came out from the eagle head decoration, and the pair of sapphire eagle pupils lit up brightly in an instant.

"Hello?" Owen greeted politely, but took a step back vigilantly, and instinctively stretched out his hand to grab his wand.Never let your guard down, especially when facing mysterious magical creations.

"Hello, I'm the administrator here, you can call me Metis. Pass the test left by Ravenclaw, and you can get her inheritance of wisdom." The eagle head decoration hummed softly Said.

"Okay, Metis. May I ask what's in the secret room?" Owen asked softly without putting down the wand in his hand.

"All the knowledge of Ravenclaw is here." Metis' light words were like a gentle breeze, "Before she left, she dedicated most of the books she had collected in her entire life to Hogwarts. Here is the library of Hutts, and here is the original and really advanced collection of all books, and the core research results of Ravenclaw."

"Ravenclaw believes that precious knowledge should not be given to others easily. It must be a wizard who is intelligent and thirsty for knowledge. He is keenly aware of the existence of the secret room from the clues she deliberately left, and came here after persistent and greedy pursuit. , and after passing the test set by her, you are eligible to enjoy the sweet fruit of wisdom."

"No matter which college you come from, since you can find this place through the layers of fog, you must have a smart mind and a relentless pursuit of knowledge, possessing the most valued qualities of Ravenclaw. As long as you pass the final test, they It is all yours, I believe you will inherit Ravenclaw's wisdom and will, and become a learned wise man and a great wizard."

Metis spoke slowly, not chattering, but like a fascinating carol.

"Before me, did anyone else come here?" Owen blinked, not in a hurry to accept the test, but chatting with Metis with a smile.

"Every once in a while, someone will stand here like you, and then return with a loss, or a rewarding experience." Metis said without the slightest impatience, with a gentle and pleasant voice, "In the past few years, you are the first one. "

Owen nodded thoughtfully.He was able to find this place thanks to the answer given by the mantra fax machine, so why didn't the person who asked this question come here?Is Metis lying, or did the man fail to find the Room of Requirement?After all, it’s really hard to find the Room of Response.

"Then I choose to start the test, Metis." After a while, he said to the eagle head sculpture.

The sapphire in the eagle's eyes flickered for a moment, and then, the stone platform below it trembled slightly, and a stone book slowly rose up, and lines of ancient runes appeared on the pages of the book.

"This is a method of creating spells that Ravenclaw has summed up in a long research." Metis introduced softly, "Using this construction method, wizards only need to combine the basic runes again and again. You can easily create your own spells without having to rely on an in-depth understanding and high-end application of the principles of spells.”

"Your first test is to use it to create a qualified spell here. Whether it meets the requirements will be judged by me."

Standing in front of the stone platform, Owen squinted his eyes to identify the handwriting on the book, and thought to himself: "Fortunately, I have a little research on ancient runes..." Many ancient magic books and documents were written in runes, so he Learn ancient runes as a second language early on.

""Seven-point Construction Method of Spell Runes"..." Owen quickly memorized this article, resting his chin in one hand, frowning.

There is no doubt that this construction method is definitely an epoch-making achievement.It changes self-created spells from an invention full of whimsy to a mechanical permutation and combination. It no longer requires in-depth research on the principles of spells and the burst of inspiration, which greatly reduces the difficulty of creating spells.Perhaps the spell created by this method is more mediocre, but it is enough to make a mediocre person soar into the sky.

"It's a bit powerful." Owen muttered, and glanced at the silent eagle head.Although using this construction method can create a magic spell, what is the risk?You must know that the creation of magic spells is full of uncertainty, especially this kind of random arrangement is more prone to accidents.

He narrowed his eyes, and then silently entered the space facing the wall.
