HP Approaches the Magical World

"Principal Helga insists you go?"

Peeves wondered first, and then wondered again.

"Then why don't you just ask the principal, she must know the reason."

Jon was silent.

Would he have sat here if he could have asked Helga?

This is not because Helga is in a deep sleep, he can't find it if he wants to find it, he can only wait for Helga to wake up to find him, and he may not be sleeping when he has time later , The two basically don't have any consistent time to communicate, so does he seem to have no clue?

Unless Helga wakes up from a deep sleep, Jon can ask Helga what he wants to know anytime and anywhere.

It was as if Helga had not yet fallen asleep.

But at that time, I don't know how long it will take to wait, Jon will definitely not be able to count on it now.

He couldn't have been sleeping on the bed for several months without waking up, waiting for Helga's call all the time, right?

"That makes sense."

Peeves nodded, then tilted his head and thought for a while: "If Principal Helga insists you go to the Dragon Soul Crypt, then I think of a possibility."

He pointed to the bottom: "When Hogwarts was first established, a lot of underground defense facilities were cast under the entire castle. These facilities were mainly used to guard against sudden attacks by the Holy See, but after the war ended It has never been used again, and most of the defense facilities today are only used as secret passages."

"However, the fundamental effectiveness of these defense facilities has not been cancelled. Although the castle no longer responds to my call and has fallen into a deep sleep, those defense facilities are still operating freely. If Principal Helga wants you to go If the Dragon Soul Crypt did this, it could only be because the headmaster had placed something in the Dragon Soul Crypt when the school was being built."

"for example?"

Jon asked suspiciously.

"How do I know that I was not born when the principal and the others built the school. Besides, even if I existed at that time, there is no way to know these secrets. You must know that the castle itself existed, and what was built later was only the surrounding defenses. Fortifications, and underground defenses."

In other words, only the underground passages and crypts were built.

The melody of tunnel warfare could not help but appear in Jon's mind, but this is not the time to think about it, so he hurriedly threw these brainwashing melodies out of his mind.

"But among the people who were imprisoned later, there shouldn't be any news. Do you have no memory of any special places in the crypt?"

"Huh? Sir, I'm just a ghost, not a machine. Don't think I'm so powerful, okay?"

Peeves always grinned when he spoke, as if joking, making it hard to tell what his emotions were at the moment.

Of course, he didn't have any emotions when he said these words.

Just in a very ordinary narrative.

"These things are not recorded, and I have no relevant memories myself. In fact, I am not the only one doing these confidential things.

It's just that as time goes by, I'm the only one left. Didn't you already know that? This castle is conscious, it is like what you call alchemical life, it can do some things on its own initiative, in fact, it is the Hogwarts castle that is responsible for detaining prisoners and other things, At that time, I was only responsible for the integration and recording of news and intelligence, and I didn't need to be responsible for handling these things at the same time. "

Jon understood, then scratched his head.

It's hard to do.

If he didn't have a way to find out what was on the third floor of the Dragon Soul Crypt, he wouldn't know what Helga wanted him to go for.

Anyway, it is definitely not the last step of pure blood purification. After all, although the last step of blood purification is a bit louder, it can be done anywhere.

Otherwise, Jon would not have found such a place as the training ground.

As long as there is a protective barrier to block the transformation of sound and light and shadow, it will be fine.

"Although I don't know what you are going to do now, I have an idea, would you like to listen to it?"

Peeves said suddenly.

Jon was naturally willing to listen, and he nodded quickly: "I would like to hear more about it, let's hear it."

"It's like this. In the records of Hogwarts, there was once recorded a wizard ritual called 'transformation', as if a snake were about to shed its skin. The function of this ritual is to make your whole body look new from the inside out. , including but not limited to promotion in various senses, I think it may be of great help to people like you who take the traditional path of promotion, so maybe Principal Helga meant this.”

"Metamorphosis?"

Jon began to brainstorm in his mind, frantically searching for information about this ceremony.

But unfortunately, nothing.

Such a ceremony was never mentioned in Helga's teaching to him.

"It's normal if you don't know." Peeves looked at Jon with a blank face and said, "This ceremony is a magical ceremony such as offering sacrifices to evil gods. You know what sacrifices are. A special sacrifice in which innocent lives are sacrificed to evil gods in exchange for power."

"But Ancestor Helga probably wouldn't let me use this—ceremony, she should be the one who opposes it the most."

"Don't be so serious. I've said that this is just a ceremony. If you use this kind of thing, it will be right, and if you use it evil, it will be evil. It is also possible not to use human life as a sacrifice, as long as you use some other magic items instead. In the end, the result is the same, of course, the efficiency and rate of improvement may not be so high if no human life is required.”

Peeves answered Jon's questions very professionally: "This is the biggest possibility I can think of at present, because the dragon skeleton in the Dragon Soul Crypt itself was built in a ritual way, and it was originally for the purpose of letting Si The founder of Raitlin took the last step—you know that the living space for wizards in that era was very small, and the power of the Holy See was incomparably scary. Although for some reason, this thing was useless in the end, it was still usable. "

"are you sure?"

Jon is a little bit unconvinced, after all, this matter involves his own life, and he always needs to be more serious.

"And you just said that there is an enchantment there."

"Yes, of course there is. The protective barrier around the school, the Sleeping Dragon barrier, and the main control center are there."
