Chapter 851 The Magic of Increasing Wisdom

"Then my mother got sick, very ill. Even though I did something unfilial and unjust, she still wanted to see me again urgently, so she sent Barrow to look for me, and the result... the result..."

Helena's eyes showed pain and regret, and she could not continue speaking, but Ivan already knew the follow-up.

Bloody Barro failed to bring back Helena, who was still a rebellious girl at the time, and because he was jealous of her freedom, he stabbed Helena to death in a rage.

After realizing the mistake he had made, Barrow committed suicide in frustration.

In a sense, it was all Helena's own fault that she ended up like this, and it also caused Rowena, the founder of Ravenclaw, to die of depression...

But Ivan would naturally not say these words, otherwise Helena would definitely fall out with him.

"Actually, Ms. Rowena has always regretted that she was too focused on research and ignored your feelings." Ivan hesitated and said comfortingly.

The painful expression on Helena's face suddenly softened a lot, and she turned her head slightly and looked at Ivan in confusion.

"I have been to that laboratory and saw a striking stone tablet at the door, with a sentence engraved on it..." Ivan explained, but before he could finish speaking, Helena spoke for him. That sentence.

"Extraordinary wisdom is mankind's greatest wealth."

"This is what my mother says most often. She has always liked smart people. Unfortunately, my performance has always disappointed her..." Helena's words revealed a little resentment.

"Do you really think that? When I went up to the laboratory, the stone tablet had been destroyed, probably by Ms. Rowena's hand!" Ivan said calmly.

Helena was stunned for a moment.

Ivan's words continued. He looked at Helena and spoke word by word. "I think it was your departure that made her realize that she once had something more important than wisdom...family affection!"

Helena's body trembled violently, and her eyes were filled with crystal tears. She gently covered her mouth with her hands, as if she wanted to block the sobs coming out of her mouth, and bits and pieces of tears slid down her cheeks. But before it hit the ground, it turned into little fluorescent lights and dissipated in the air.

Ivan turned around very wisely and pretended to be looking at the scenery outside the window, letting Helena vent her long-standing emotions.

After an unknown amount of time, the low crying slowly subsided.

Helena wiped the tears from her eyes and murmured to herself. "If we all figured this out earlier, maybe... maybe things wouldn't be so bad..."

"People always have to lose something before they understand what is most important." Ivan said.

Helena sighed and nodded, then took a deep look at the crown and said rather reluctantly. "Take it away!"

"Aren't you going to keep it?" Ivan asked somewhat unexpectedly. He could see that Helena had a deep obsession with this crown, so when he took out the Ravenclaw crown, he It is even ready to be returned to its original owner.

"No, there's no point in me holding it." Helena said with a wry smile. She was now a ghost and couldn't even hold the crown.

Ivan stopped being pretentious because he was afraid that if he declined a few more words, Helena would change her attention temporarily.

"Then how should I use it? Should I just wear it like this?" Ivan asked as he fiddled with this gorgeous crown. He had tried various methods before but failed to get any feedback.

"You still lack a spell to activate it." Helena laughed, then floated in front of Ivan, gently placed her palm on top of the crown, and muttered something slowly.

Ivan clearly saw the famous quote engraved on the inside of the crown light up, and then the entire crown glowed with light blue fluorescence.

This abnormality only lasted for a moment and then disappeared without a trace, but Ivan could feel that the crown in his hand was different from before.

He had even guessed that the spell to activate the crown was the phrase "Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind", but he had to use an ancient British proverb from thousands of years ago. No wonder there was no movement no matter how he tried it.

Fortunately, looking at it from another angle, since he had not discovered this, the young Voldemort probably did not have this ability, otherwise he would not have wasted the crown as a high-end material for making Horcruxes.

"Now you can take it and try it." Helena took her hand back and said encouragingly.

After getting Helena's confirmation, Ivan couldn't wait to put the crown on his head. He was really curious whether this thing was really as magical as the rumors said. Just wearing it can make a person become incomparable. clever……

However, at the moment when he was crowned, Ivan's expression suddenly paused, his face full of shock and disbelief.

Helena was a little surprised by Ivan's reaction, but she didn't think much about it and asked with a smile. "How's it going? Are you surprised? Do you feel like you've become a lot smarter?"

"Yes, I am very surprised..." Ivan came back to his senses and murmured, gently taking off the crown and staring at it, with some thoughts in his eyes.

Ravenclaw's crown did increase his wisdom, but the feeling of greatly improving his thinking speed and understanding made Ivan feel extremely familiar.

This is very similar to the increase he usually gets when he activates the Academic Master Experience Card, but the effect is not that obvious.

This discovery greatly exceeded Ivan's expectations. Could it be that every time he used the experience card, the system also increased his thinking ability through some kind of alchemy?

Like this crown?

What about the so-called protected mode? Could it also be the effect of some kind of magic?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind one by one. Ivan felt that he was very close to the truth, but he was not sure of his guess.

"Hals... Hals, what's wrong with you?" Helena saw Ivan standing there holding the crown, as if he was stunned, so she stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.

"No, it's nothing, I'm just a little too surprised." Ivan said with emotion, holding the crown in his hand. "No wonder Ms. Ravenclaw was called the wisest person in the wizarding world by people at that time."

Judging from the information he learned, Rowena Ravenclaw is an extremely smart witch. In addition, she made this magic crown, which allows her to enjoy the increase in thinking all the time. In one sentence, she is the most intelligent. The evaluation cannot be overstated...
