Ted took out a small red and white ball from his pocket.
This elf ball was a lot smaller than the one Hermione had seen before, pretending to be Chicken Brother.
This has been further optimized and is a little smaller than a fist.
In fact, Ted's inspiration mainly came from the "Invisible Extension Spell", which is very interesting.
In the movie Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Newt expands a zoo inside a suitcase!
Ted just simplified the interior decoration, and the space is about the size of a garden.
Oh, that's not the one in my hand. This one is only the size of a table, with a hamster nest inside.
As the friends watched, the elf ball was opened, and a confused little white mouse came out.
Oh, sorry, it’s the magic guinea pig.
Now it is a magical animal~
We can affectionately call him "Little Elf Mouse"~
"Hey, little brother, go in and see if there's anything." Ted ordered.
The little mouse nodded and quickly got into Slytherin's big mouth.
Ted closed his eyes and began to observe from the perspective of the little mouse. Well, it was a bit low and he couldn't see clearly. No wonder the old saying goes that the eyes of a mouse are short-sighted, but the viewing angle is indeed limited.
The little mouse stood up and tried his best to look far away, but still couldn't do it, but he saw man-made traces around him.
Continuing forward, we passed a place where a large snake scale was left behind. It might have been the place where the basilisk slept. The walls were scratched with traces.
Not long after that, Brother Rat came to a place that looked like a house. Climb up a table and you can see a circle of bookshelves...
"It seems there's no danger. Let's go in and take a look." Ted put the helmet spell on himself and his friends and took the lead in bending down and entering the hole.
The long and narrow corridor should have had some kind of wall relief or mural, but it had been smoothed away by the basilisk.
A thousand years is still too long.
But continue walking in, and at the end of the dark and cramped corridor, there is a huge spacious space.
Space magic such as the Space Expansion Spell was obviously used here, and the entire space was much larger than the statue. But this feeling is different...
This place looks like a super large space loft, with the first and second floors integrated. Large bookshelves are erected on the surrounding walls, and there are many books on them...
Rows of snake-shaped lamp holders on the wall are burning the ever-burning Gubrai fairy fire, illuminating the entire space very brightly.
There is an extra-long experimental table in the middle hall. There are many simple-looking glass utensils on it. The liquids inside have dried up and turned black, or even turned into powder.
Whatever Slytherin was studying here was now destroyed by the greatest magic of time.
"Everyone, don't move around. I'll go upstairs and take a look." Ted stepped up the stairs and carefully reached the second floor.
The rows of rooms were all unlocked. Ted opened them carefully. Some of them were rows of shelves, some were rows of items packed in containers, and some were cages with extended spaces...
But whatever it was once was now reduced to ashes.
Ted tried to pick up a huge skull of an unknown beast, but when he touched it, it fell apart like a weathered cookie.
This secret room is connected to the castle, which provides it with magic power to maintain its existence.
This may also be the reason why Ravenclaw discovered that Slytherin built the Chamber of Secrets - the Room of Requirement has the same rights as the backend administrator.
But although the magic power will maintain the existence of the secret room, the magic potions, materials and other items in the secret room that were thousands of years ago will not work, and they are basically all destroyed.
I guess that was how it was when Voldemort came in.
So even if he inherits the secret room, a poor graduate still has to work in Knockturn Alley ~ pitiful ~
But later, after Ted checked the bookshelves on the first floor, he still felt that Tom must have taken away a considerable part of the essence.
Especially part of the magic blood transformation and most of the black magic related information.
But not long after he gained weight, he was targeted by Dumbledore for accidentally killing Moaning Myrtle, and he never dared to open the Chamber of Secrets again.
Even the bloodline research materials he left behind in the pile of debris in the Room of Requirement led Professor Quirrell to embark on this path. He even brought him back from the Albanian forest last year and became addicted to being a professor.
It can be said that one peck and one drink are all determined~
There were a large number of parchments, ancient books, and magic books in front of us that looked very ancient and precious. For a while, the friends were a little afraid to touch them.
It was up to Ted to start quickly scanning, copying, and categorizing the information... They also started sorting out the information left by Slytherin.
However, Ted estimated that Slytherin did not intend to leave anything shocking to the world at the beginning, but only left a backup set of the information and research he collected for the school.
It's just that the most essential part about bloodline transformation and creation, as well as Slytherin's most famous black magic, were taken away by Voldemort.
But even the idle information left behind still involves a huge amount of knowledge. In a sense, even more than Ravenclaw left behind.
Because Ravenclaw actually just left his office behind, and had no intention of leaving anything behind.
Ancient runes, magical biology, transformation and creation of magical blood, bionics of magical animals, ancient magic... Slytherin's fields are very complex.
And he has already begun to sort out the magic system and study the roots of the birth of magic.
Slytherin believes that magic is born in the soul of "creatures (including inanimate magical beings)", or "pseudo-souls (a place similar to the soul that houses consciousness and thinking)".
But with long-term use of magic power, it will gradually be engraved in the blood and passed down.
He felt that this was also the reason why many first-generation wizards of Muggle origin were very good, because they themselves were the source of this bloodline.
The wizard's first magics were all imitated by certain abilities of magical animals, magical beings, or certain phenomena between heaven and earth.
Wizards yearn for it, and then produce similar magic.
Magic like Horcrux is created by a dark wizard based on the ability of a dark magic creature.
There are also many magical animal abilities, such as the ability of birds and snakes to grow larger and smaller, the ability of ocelots to lepilyze... weather spells and freezing spells derived from natural climate...
Slytherin: I would call it bionic magic!
Maybe this is the so-called Tao follows nature and follows the example of all things?
Slytherin has even conducted some human experiments, trying to let wizards directly control the abilities of certain magical animals. You don’t have to cast a spell, you just get it naturally!
This kind of experiment is undoubtedly dangerous and unethical.
Many of Slytherin's opinions are very valuable. Of course, Ted cannot accept them all and open up new ideas.
Although today's wizard magic system is much weaker than ancient magic, it is also very advanced in many places. There is no need to focus more on the past than on the present.
Ted looked at the scrolls and books covering several walls, and said softly: "These things are enough for us to learn at least the fifth grade."
Ron on the other side bared his teeth and cracked his lips as he heard this: "Fifth grade? I thought I had to study for a lifetime!"
Ted comforted: "Don't think that the older the thing, the better. If so, wouldn't the ancient apes be the strongest? The current magic system has its own advantages, and in many places it is much superior to the unsystematic magic thousands of years ago."
"Think about it, a little wizard can learn the magic spells invented and improved by generations and hundreds of years in a week. Because we stand on the shoulders of giants."
Ted gestured with his wand: "And some of Slytherin's research is too cruel and not suitable for children. There is a reason why he is considered a dark wizard. We don't need to learn this part."
If given a choice, Ted would rather delve into the legacy of Lady Ravenclaw, or the magical path of Gryffindor or Hufflepuff.
Salazar Slytherin's way, not Ted's way.
Oh, by the way, after returning home, you will need to take a psychological personality test on yourself and your friends, and closely observe whether your mental tendencies are affected by black magic.
Because in more than an hour of "organizing (copying)" the information, Ted actually gained "Bloodline Transformation + Level 3, Magical Zoology + Level 2"!
Did this impact come too quickly?
I just read it through without even thinking about the content!
What Slytherin left behind does have something~
Ted didn't even dare delve too deeply into it now.
It's like starting to study cutting-edge topics in science and technology before you graduate from high school - it's just nonsense, but it's easy to mess up your head.
Will affects magic, and magic in turn affects character.
Thanks to the book friend "Izukuma Tsuki" for the 200-point reward! Thanks
