Chapter 222 The Secret Room and Snake Language

Unfortunately, the entire jar was only so big, and it wasn't long before it was filled with black mist.

The spider in the jar had nowhere to escape, and was soon eroded by the black mist. When everything returned to its original state, only a dry and empty shell was left in the jar.

Ivan watched all this quietly, gently turning the ring that could release the fierce fire with his left hand, and already holding the wand tightly with his right hand, ready to deal with possible accidents at any time.

According to his assumption, the vitality of a spider could not restore much strength to Tom. Tom, who had absorbed Ginny's vitality in the original space and time, could not even release magic.

Because of this, Ivan dared to take this risk and made some preparations just in case.

After sucking a spider into an empty shell, more black mist emerged from the diary, and in the illusory space, Tom Riddle's figure reappeared.

"Tom, are you okay?" Ivan looked at Tom, who was wearing Slytherin robes in front of him, and felt that he seemed a little more solid than before.

"Thank you for your trust, Hals. I have recovered a little bit of my previous consumption, so I can meet you again, although it will only last about an hour." Tom Riddle showed a smile on his face and paused. After a pause, he spoke again.

"How's it going? Did you get the book? The magic I left behind didn't cause any hindrance to you, right?"

"A confusion spell and an unknown magic that hides things, right? It did take me a while." Ivan said resentfully.

He couldn't help but think of how he went to look for "The Origin of Blood" under the guidance of the system last school year. If he hadn't been lucky enough to stumble across a dark magic book and happened to break the confusion spell left by Tom, God knows what he would have been looking for. how long.

"You moved faster than I thought. I thought it would take you at least two or three days to break the spell I set." Tom was very surprised. The confusion spell was carefully laid by him. Very clever.

Most people wouldn't find anything wrong even if they stood there with their eyes wide open and searched carefully. Tom even thought about the situation where Ivan couldn't crack it and came back for help.

Unexpectedly, Ivan cracked it in less than a day, which made Tom more and more afraid of the little wizard in front of him.

"I've already read that book. Just like you said, the most critical parts were torn out. The result is that it looks like a boring history book." Ivan shook his head regretfully.

"As I said before, that should be the handiwork of your principal Dumbledore." The corners of Tom's mouth raised slightly, and then he continued to comfort him.

"But you don't need to worry. When I was in school, I spent a long time to find a way to complete most of the content and put this part of the information in a secret room! It just needs snake language to open it. "

Are you so kind?

Ivan rolled his eyes. He didn't believe that Tom would be so kind.

It's more like trying to induce him to go to the secret room and then trick him to death.

He knew that there was only a basilisk in the secret room that stared at everyone to death. If he entered rashly with a Horcrux, he would definitely end badly.

Just as Ivan was thinking this, he noticed that the progress of the Mystery of Blood mission had instantly increased to 30% when Tom Riddle told him about the secret room.

Ivan was stunned. This meant that there was probably a way to fuse multiple bloodlines in the secret room, and even if it didn't work, there were corresponding clues.

"What's wrong? Hals?" Tom Riddle said doubtfully.

"Nothing? I'm just a little bit curious as to why Hogwarts has a secret room that requires snake language to open. Did you create it specially, Tom?" Ivan changed the subject.

"Of course it's not my handiwork. I don't have the ability to open a secret room in Hogwarts!" Tom shook his head and explained.

"That's Salazar-Slytherin, a place specially created for experiments and research on blood fusion."

Ivan subconsciously thought that Tom was lying to him, but he immediately realized that this possibility existed.

If the book "Blood Origin" was really written by Salazar Slytherin, it means that Slytherin has a very deep understanding of this aspect and may have engaged in research in this area.

It is normal to establish a special place to carry out research work. As for the basilisk placed in the secret room, it may be the creature guarding this place, or it may be the subject of research.

There are countless rare and magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest. Could it be that the reason why they are kept here is also to facilitate research?

Various conjectures passed through Ivan's mind. If he remembered correctly, the symbol of Slytherin House was a snake.

As a descendant of Salazar-Slytherin, Voldemort was born to speak Parselang. Such obvious inheritance characteristics may be because Salazar Slytherin once fused the blood of the basilisk and passed on this power.

While Ivan was thinking about it, he heard Tom Riddle continue.

"Anyway, I put everything in the secret room. It's absolutely safe there. Even Dumbledore can't find it. You only need to use the snake language to open it!"

"Then after you told me so much, you will definitely teach me snake language, right? Tom, we are best friends!" Ivan said expectantly.

"Of course I am willing to teach you, but not everyone can master snake language," Tom Riddle responded arrogantly.

Tom Riddle was about to say that taking him in would solve the problem, but Ivan interrupted him first.

"Is Snake Language really that difficult? Maybe I can learn it, but I may not be able to master many advanced magics in just a short while."

"Snake language is different." Tom Riddle frowned. Looking at Ivan's determined look, he knew that Ivan would not give up unless he gave it a try, so he had to endure it and teach it a few times.

Hiss~

At the same time that Tom spoke the snake language, Ivan decisively entered the learning acceleration mode of the experience card. He could vaguely detect that the snake language seemed to contain magic power, vibrating at a strange frequency, affecting the entire black fog. space.

Ivan had a clue and understood the reason why snake language was difficult to learn. He tried hard to recall everything he had just perceived and tried to imitate it. The system prompts in his mind also sounded.

"How? Do you need me to teach you again?" Tom Riddle said impatiently. He didn't want to waste time on this kind of thing.

But Tom Riddle's expression soon changed.

Because the weird snake language sounded again in the black fog space. Although it was still a little unfamiliar, Tom Riddle was very sure that it was the snake language.
