Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

This is not a simple pattern, nor a magic rune, but a text composed of Parseltongue!

Parseltongue, as the name suggests, is to speak in the language of snakes, to communicate with snakes, this is a very rare gift, only a few Parseltongues can use it, this language sounds like a bunch of hissing exhalations , and the Parseltongues sounded like their usual language.

The most famous Parseltongue in the history of magic is Salazar Slytherin, who was also the first wizard to be definitively confirmed to be able to speak Parseltongue.

Before him, there were also many wizards who could talk to snakes in legends, but none of them had been confirmed, and there was not enough evidence to show that they could use Parseltongue. The reason why they could talk to snakes may be because they used Magic similar to the Imperius Curse can control snakes or read their minds with magic.

Because of this, many wizards believe that Parseltongue originated with Salazar Slytherin.

In fact, Parseltongues proven after Salazar Slytherin are almost all descendants of the great wizard.

They are more or less related to him by blood, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Parseltongue is a unique talent of Slytherin.

So it's no surprise to see Parseltongue on the door to the Slytherin vault.

As far as Ivan knows, Parseltongue did not originate from Salazar Slytherin, nor is it as simple as communicating with snakes as many people think.

Like ancient rune, it is a special magic language.

Not long ago, when he went to Azkaban with Dumbledore and Harry to destroy the brain of the evil god, Ivan had seen the magic used in the Parseltongue, and it appeared on the "Book of Abraham" that was the same as the door of the vault in front of him. The pattern, that is the words composed of Parseltongue.

Those words finally constitute a magic, the magic that controls the staff of the two snakes.

The Parseltongue must be used when using the Two Snakes to cast spells. Only the magic recited in the Parseltongue can be understood by the two snakes on the Two Snakes. The Two Snakes once belonged to Salazar Slytherin, but not Made by Talin, this scepter has an even older history, dating back to the last era of the wizarding world.

It can be deduced from this that Parseltongue is a magical language of the ancient magic age.

Like other ancient runes, but much older, it is a rune contemporaneous with the Book of Abraham and the Staff of the Two Serpents.

This kind of rune itself has special magic power, even if no one can recognize it because of time, it can still be passed down through the power of blood. The Slytherin family has this kind of blood, and they are descendants of a powerful ancient warlock , and this ancient warlock can use the Parseltongue to control the Double Snake Staff.

In fact, almost all prominent pure-blood wizarding families trace their ancestry back to a powerful ancient sorcerer.

It is precisely because of the power of blood magic that Salazar Slytherin can use the Parseltongue to drive the Double Snake Staff, and he can easily defeat the despicable Helbo at a young age, not to mention the famous black The wizard himself was the last ancient warlock. After becoming an evil god, his power multiplied exponentially. It was impossible for ordinary wizards to be opponents. Only those who also mastered the powerful magic mysteries of ancient times could defeat him.So Salazar Slytherin's insistence on keeping the bloodline pure is also understandable in a sense, because only such wizards can inherit the magical power in the bloodline...

And only wizards who have inherited blood magic can use that powerful magic.

To defeat evil when the need arises, or to be evil itself.

In any case, in Salazar Slytherin's opinion, it is better to maintain the power of pure blood to inherit blood magic than to let the power die...

Aiwen did not have such an ancient and prominent ancestor, nor did he have blood talent.

He doesn't know Parseltongue, let alone read characters written in Parseltongue.

But Harry could, because of the fragment of Voldemort's soul inside him, he could speak Parseltongue, and he could read the text.

Now, this kind of writing appeared on the door of the vault in front of him. Do you need to use Parseltongue?

"No, goblins can't open this door, we don't have the key..."

"We have!" Ivan said quickly, he took out Slytherin's locket and showed it to Hermione, Harry, and Elaine, "The shape of the locket is exactly the same as the groove on the door, I think it should be Put it in, and, do you see the patterns on it?"

"It's exactly the same as the pattern on the door!" Hermione said after careful observation.

"That's right, this locket and this door are originally one, it is the key to open the door of the vault." Aiwen said excitedly, he licked his dry lips, "And that's not all, if my The deduction is not wrong, this is actually an ancient rune, a text composed of Parseltongue."

"You said the pattern on it is Parseltongue!" Harry looked at Ivan in surprise, then turned his head to look at the vault door.

He stared at the pattern for a few seconds, trying to imagine the curved lines as a snake.

Soon, Harry found that the messy and meaningless patterns in front of him had turned into words he could understand. He didn't know what the words meant, but he just knew them, just like the day he read "The Book of Abraham" Same as the magic spell above.

"Harry, can you read what's written on it?" Hermione asked.

"I... can!" said Harry, the writing on the door now feeling familiar to him.

"Elaine, take out Slytherin's wand. Together with the locket, it is the key to open this door." Ivan said, putting the locket in the groove on the door, and the locket is completely intact. Embedded in, reconnecting the disconnected text, "Harry, read the text in Parseltongue, that's the spell to open the vault."

Elaine also took out the white wand. After solving the family's troubles, Keresis gave the wand to her for safekeeping.

Although she always carries it with her, under normal circumstances, Elaine does not use this wand, she prefers to use her own.

She put her wand in the lower groove and rolled it down a bit.

There was a crisp click, and the wand was completely embedded in it.

This seemed to be an activated switch. When the wand was put into the groove, a dark golden light lit up from the center of Slytherin's locket, and quickly passed along the lines to the sides.Soon, the entire vault door was glowing with a faint golden light.

Harry chanted the magic on the vault door in Parseltongue, and with the strange hissing sound, the whole space began to vibrate again.

The giant dragon that had calmed down flew up again frantically, flying with it was the surrounding molten lava.

Just like the volcano that is about to erupt, the magma is boiling and bubbling, and it seems to be ready to erupt at any time...

Chapter 1626 The Empty Vault

In the blink of an eye, the boiling lava became more and more intense.

The lava began to surge like sea waves, beating the rocks and splashing outwards, as if it might erupt at any moment.

It's like a monster hiding something below, about to break out of its chrysalis.

The giant dragon roared and hovered in the low sky, sending bursts of manic and restless emotions to Ivan through the magical connection.

It wanted to escape here, but Aiwen controlled it not to let it leave, and it began to resist Aiwen's Imperius Curse.

Aiwen increased his magic power to suppress the dragon's resistance, but this was only a superficial vision, and the invisible flow of magic power was even more shocking.

"This magic..." Harry paused blankly.

"Go on, Harry!" Ivan shouted, he raised his wand, and a magic barrier appeared to protect them.

The splashing lava was blocked by the magic barrier, Harry looked at Ivan, and began to chant the spell on the door again.This is a guided magic that does not require the caster's own strength. As long as Harry can read the Parseltongue on the vault door, the power of the rune itself can drive the magic left here to open the vault. .

Ivan could feel that after Harry began to read the words on the door in Parseltongue, the magic power around him began to gather towards the Slytherin locket in the center of the gate. This locket was gathering magic power, just like As it has done many times before, the huge magic power dissociated in the magma began to gather under its attraction, and all gathered on the locket, and then transformed by the locket, and turned to the two ends in an energy way. Above the Parseltongue script.

Infused with energy, the Parseltongue incantation on the door glowed golden.

This is the color of energy, and the golden color emanating from the incantation on the door is the color of the magic power that was originally dissolved in the magma.

The light becomes more and more dazzling. When the infused energy reaches a certain level, the door will be opened. This is why Salazar Slytherin built the vault here, except that it is located deep underground. In addition to the convenience of using magma to protect the safety of the vault, it can also ensure the supply of magic power to open this special door.

As the magic progressed, more and more spells were covered in gold, and soon covered the entire gate.

Under the infusion of powerful magic power, the dark gold slowly flowed upwards, and finally merged into the emerald that constituted the emblem of the Slytherin family.

Like the spells above the door, the emeralds were lit, giving off a pale green gleam.

One, two, three...

In a blink of an eye, the entire Slytherin family emblem was filled with magic power, and the capital letter S seemed to come alive.

It looked condescendingly at Harry who was chanting a spell in front of the door like a snake, and seemed to be ready to pounce on him at any time, but this worrying scene did not happen. Almost at the same time that the magic power poured into the entire emblem, the door clicked With a sound, it split apart around the groove where the wand was placed, revealing a hole.

In the next second, the vibration stopped.

All quiet, they opened the Slytherin family vault.

After being dusty for thousands of years, this ancient vault was opened again.

With the light from the lava, one can vaguely see a circular room inside.

It is not filled with gold, silver and jewelry like other vaults, but has many shelves along the walls.

"We opened it, Salazar Slytherin's vault!" Hermione said excitedly, holding Ivan's hand tightly, "It's unbelievable."

"Yeah, but this happened right in front of us, let's go in and see what Salazar Slytherin left behind." Ivan said.

"Wait, Ivan!" Hermione hurriedly stopped him, "Is there no other magic in it?"

"Isn't there any danger?" Harry also asked, the magic that opened the vault door just now still left him with lingering fears.

"Well, it's hard to say, because they can't trust goblins, wizards often cast spells in their own vaults to protect the contents from being stolen, just like the contents of the Lestrange family's vaults have been poisoned to death. Mixed spells, but I don't think Slytherin should use this kind of magic." Ivan said, looking inside cautiously, "And I didn't feel any traces of magic power, there should be no other magic... In fact , there seems to be nothing here."

The shelves were empty, or there might have been something on them, but millennia had decayed them.

It was so frustrating that they had gone to such lengths to open Salazar Slytherin's vault and there was nothing in it.

Legendary magic items, ancient magic books, powerful magic potions, even gold and silver jewelry, none of these...

"Smart Slytherin, who came from that quagmire! He only believes in wizards with the purest blood, and Mudbloods can't get anything from him!" Ivan whispered these words softly, and he led Harry, He Min and Elaine walked in, "Be careful, see if you can find anything."

Ivan looked at the empty vault, could it be that Slytherin had already guessed that he would open his vault.

Therefore, he transferred everything early because Ivan was not a pure-blooded wizard.

That's ridiculous, but it's possible given Salazar Slytherin.

Or, the vault was once opened by descendants of the Slytherin family, who came in and took everything inside...

Considering the time factor, the possibility of this situation is also very high.

"There's nothing here." Elaine joked, "It seems that my ancestor didn't intend to leave me anything."

"Probably this is the main reason why the goblins are not curious about this place." Aiwen said, "Although the result is regrettable, we..."

"Ivan, Harry, come and take a look at this!" Hermione suddenly shouted, she stopped at a wall and said.

Could it be that there is something discovered that the position of this wall is just below the emblem of the Slytherin family.

Aiwen and the others hurried over and saw a small silver snake painted on the wall in an inconspicuous place.

Another secret room!

Salazar Slytherin really liked building the Chamber of Secrets, and the little silver snake on the wall was exactly the same as the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets in the school.

"Open!" Harry stepped forward, hissing in Parseltongue at the little silver snake.

The little snake seemed to understand what he said, and swam forward.

In the next second, the wall vibrated and slid to both sides, and another hole was leaked, and inside was a spiral downward staircase.

"Okay, okay, it's another secret room, watch the surroundings carefully, and tell me immediately if there is anything special." Ivan said, and walked in first, "Smart Salazar Slytherin , it seems that he likes to play tricks with us, and always hides some secrets, which is really troublesome!"

Chapter 1627 The pure blood will get the treasure

Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Elaine held up their wands and walked along the dark and narrow secret passage.

Soon, the surroundings gradually became brighter.

Without the light of a wand, the darkness is dispelled by the light from the walls, floor and ceiling.

This is a kind of bright bright red. The rock wall is like the special bright red emitted by the red-hot pig iron or the lighted filament. It is the brightness emitted by the rock after being roasted at high temperature. Everything was glowing red, even the air was starting to turn bright red.

Accompanied by the color change, is the rapidly rising temperature, scorching everything with high temperature.

Ivan estimated that the four of them are now completely immersed in the depths of the magma.

Even with the protection of magic, it cannot prevent the rock from being ignited by the high temperature.

Similarly, even with the protection of magic, it was impossible for Aiwen and the four of them to isolate the astonishing temperature from the rock wall.

"It's so hot!" Elaine wiped her sweat.

Because of the high temperature, her perennially pale face also showed a rare blush.

"It will feel better this way!" Ivan waved his wand at Elaine, and cast another constant temperature spell on her.

"It's not much cooler. Vampires hate high temperatures." Elaine continued, sticking out her tongue, while opening her neckline.

"If this Chamber of Secrets is the real vault of Slytherin, what's in it?" Harry asked expectantly, his curiosity aroused. "Would it be a legendary magic item? Like a staff of two snakes or a hanging Like a locket?"

"It is possible that Slytherin has many precious collections, and legendary magic items are only part of them." Ivan replied in a relaxed tone, "If I were to say it, I would prefer clues related to evil gods or secret treasure keys. "

Of course, if it is a powerful legendary magic item, Ivan will not dislike it.

"But it won't be that simple," he continued, "Don't forget, Slytherin will only leave his treasures to pure blood, the kind of real pure blood wizards, I don't think he will just talk, If it's the real vault down there, he probably won't leave us with anything."

The scene just now reminded Aiwen and made him think of this matter.

Strictly speaking, none of the four of them are purebloods that meet the requirements of Slytherin.

Ivan and Hermione needless to say, Harry is also a mixed blood, he just inherited part of Voldemort's blood talent in soul.As for Elaine, she is the successor of Slytherin in name, but her blood is actually more chaotic, a mixed blood of evil gods, vampires and wizards.

If Salazar Slytherin made up his mind to use the purity of bloodlines to choose his heirs, then he would definitely leave magic or institutions to verify bloodlines.

In this way, Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Elaine did not meet the requirements.

"Huh, it's pure blood again. It's hard to believe that the founder of Hogwarts would have this kind of discrimination. Seriously, no matter what Slytherin left down here, I hate this place." Hermione wrinkled her nose and said , looked around anxiously, "Now is not the time for treasure hunting, we'd better get out of here quickly, the goblins above must have found us, the track was destroyed by the dragon, they can't get down, but they will definitely guard the fortress above road……"

"Don't worry about this, Hermione, it doesn't matter how many goblins and Death Eaters are guarding it, we don't need to go out along the track. I have studied the underground structure of Gringotts before. This cave leads directly to Diagon Alley above. We will rush up on the giant dragon in a while, and no one can stop us." Ai Wen stopped talking, the four of them had come to the end, and in front of them was the exit of the secret road, "Since we are here, we should Investigate carefully. Moreover, we seem to have reached the end, look, that is the end of the secret passage, come on, let us see what is inside..."

Aiwen came to the end of the secret road, and a crimson world appeared in front of them, a world composed of flames.
