Chapter 643 The Raven Heralding Death

next chapter

Under the refraction of the water and the light of some fluorescent plants at the bottom of the lake, the entire mermaid village is surrounded by a faint green light.

"Fluorescent flashes!" Ivan waved his wand, emitting a stronger light.

The mermen looked curiously at him and his glowing wand, but they didn't come around, they were still singing and dancing.

Ai Wen walked closer and found that the cracked gap was located in the center of the joint between the caudal fin and the waist of the mermaid statue

It is covered with thick waterweed and moss, which is faintly visible under the light of the wand.

Ivan carefully checked the gap, and it turned out that it was formed after a scale on the statue disappeared.

He pushed his wand deep into it, and stuck his head in with it.

Inside the gap is a narrow stone passage, only big enough for a person to crawl through.

This corridor follows the direction of the terrain and continues directly below the mermaid statue. It is a naturally formed crack.

There are no artificial traces inside, and the rock walls on both sides look very rough and winding.

There seems to be something inside, but because of the angle, it can't be seen clearly from the outside.

Ivan spit out a few bubbles, put the wand across his chest, stepped forward into the gap, and swam downward.

With the light of his wand, he observed the gray rocks on both sides closely, and the texture was not as hard as he imagined.

These rocks are easily damaged by external forces, and the naturally formed cracks inside are very narrow.

This means that if you don't use the correct magic to open it, it is almost impossible to rely on brute force to get in from the outside world.

The destructive power is slightly small, and the stone door on the outermost side of the statue cannot be opened.

If the destructive power is slightly greater, the cracks on the ground will completely collapse, annihilating this narrow corridor.

The scale is difficult to grasp. The person who originally designed it must have made very careful calculations before building the mermaid statue on it.

In the gap, Aiwen swam diagonally downward for more than ten feet, and suddenly landed on the ground.

The corridor formed by the gap disappeared, and the space in front of him suddenly opened up, and the space became spacious.

The surrounding cold lake water and water pressure quickly disappeared, and the air became dry again.

Aiwen turned around and stretched out his left palm to sense it, and an invisible magic barrier was placed in front of him, isolating all the lake water.

Those mermaids outside don't know how to use magic, so why did this magic barrier appear here? !

Don't look at it as an ordinary isolation of the lake, the sudden appearance of the magic barrier is very powerful.

Must be left by a powerful wizard, Rowena Ravenclaw? !

In this kind of place, it seems that there is no one else except her!

No wonder those mermaids refused to come in, they must have known that they would come out of the water after a short swim.

Ai Wen quickly evaporated the water droplets on his body, and continued to move forward, feeling more and more curious in his heart.

He stopped after taking two steps, and the mermaid singing from above did not dissipate, but became more and more clear.

It sounds very ethereal and graceful, just like the sound of nature.

The singing echoed in the tunnel, making everything in front of me unreal, like a dream.

"This sound doesn't seem right." Ivan froze for a moment, his thoughts gradually lost in the mermaid's singing.

The singing sounded in the ear has a charming magic power, and people can't help but immerse themselves in it, and don't want to do anything.

Amidst the wonderful music, Aiwen became more and more tired and unable to lift up his spirits. He just wanted to lie down and sleep

"Close your ears and listen!" He cast the spell on himself, and an unidentifiable hum filled his ears for a moment.

It's like the whole school's teachers and students discussing together in the auditorium, or whispering in the classroom.

The mermaid's singing voice returned to normal, and the alluring power that suddenly emerged from it disappeared.

Aiwen continued to move forward, becoming more and more curious about the magic left here.

This magic relies on the mobilization of mermaids without any power, blending and influencing each other, and the design is very ingenious.

At Aiwen's current level, not to mention the involvement, there are many places that I still don't quite understand.

Along the passage, he spiraled down to a stone door. There was no handle or keyhole on the door. There was only an old brown board with a bronze knocker in the shape of an eagle. A dark blue raven.

Raven's eyes were very strange red, and he was staring at Ivan.

Aiwen pointed his wand at the raven above, blinked his eyes, and saw that there were two rubies in the raven's eyes.

Glittering in the wand's light, it looked uncomfortable.

I don't know what material this guy is made of, it's very realistic.

In front of the door, Aiwen had a feeling of being spied on, but abnormally, he didn't have any magical reaction.

He lowered his head and looked away from the raven to the main body of the gate.

Looking at the familiar eagle-shaped door knocker, Ivan thought of the door to the Ravenclaw school common room.

It is said that the current Ravenclaw Tower was once Rowena Ravenclaw's laboratory.

That's why she left such a distinctive door there to test the wisdom of the visitors and whether they are qualified to enter it.

Unlike the other three colleges that require passwords, only wizards who give the correct answer can enter Ravenclaw.

Even Ravenclaw students, if they can't solve the answer, can only stay outside.

If it were any other academy, there would probably be many people sleeping in the corridors outside every day!

But the students of Ravenclaw College enjoyed it and thought it was a good test.

Since there is such a door here, there is no doubt that it must have been left by Ravenclaw.

Perhaps, her secret treasure key is inside, and Ivan did not expect it to be so simple.

Next, just solve the problem posed by the door.

Except for the seductive singing of the mermaid, he encountered no obstacles along the way.

Aiwen didn't relax his vigilance either. Since Gryffindor would leave a test, there was no reason for Ravenclaw to do nothing.

He walked to the door with his wand in one hand, and knocked softly with the other.

In the silence, Ivan felt that the sound was like a cannonball exploding.

The eagle's beak opened immediately, but instead of making a bird cry, it said in an indifferent and gloomy voice, "Strange visitor, you will be judged here, and death will be your only destination."

As soon as it finished speaking, powerful strange magic power instantly filled the space around Aiwen.

He cast a prepared protective spell instantly, but it didn't work.

The sudden appearance of power in the surrounding space was too powerful, and Aiwen found that he seemed to be under the spell of petrification, and lost control of his body.

At this moment, the raven above the gate suddenly flew up.

It chose above Aiwen's head, and those blood-red eyes stared at him intently.

This time, Ivan could clearly feel death from this raven! (To be continued...) Browsing and reading address:
