Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 1672 Irwin's Speculation

Dummy cannon?

A Ravenclaw dud?

This mute was the descendant of a pure Ravenclaw family and appeared a millennium ago with very pure descent.

This is incredible, no matter what you think.

Reliable data suggest that the frequency of mutilations has increased over recent centuries, mainly as a result of marriages between wizards and Muggles, and the integration of blood ties between the two sides, which are often used as examples in books or magic studies related to "pure blood first”.

In the Blake family's library, Ivan found a lot of magic books like this, which he read as a pastime.

While these books are intended to illustrate that such assertions as pureblood wizards are superior are worthless, the data themselves do not lie, and the frequency of the appearance of dummy cannons is indeed related to the degree of purity of the blood of both parents, both parents are wizards, and the more innocent the descent, the more likely the child is to be a wizard. It follows from this that in the age of a thousand years ago, the immediate descendants of a family of wizards like Ravenclaw would have been mute cannons, with no doubt as low a chance of such a thing as a comet striking Earth.

“Wait, if this Young Master Darien is not a mute...” Ivan thought so, “wouldn't he be a silent one?! ”

This reason seems more believable and acceptable than his being a mute.

Darien Ravenclaw is not a mute, he is silent!

He is not without magic, his magic is simply contained or parasitized by some dark magic force, which renders him incapable of imposing. While the implicit numbers are equally scarce and even much smaller than the duds, given Darien's identity, this is clearly more credible than he is a dud.

Following this line of thinking, what could be the reason Darien became silent?

Could someone have abused him, causing him to lose control of his magical powers?

Or was he bewitched by evil gods and parasitized by dark magic?

Given that the Gate of Death is right next to the castle in the heart of the lake, which connects the world of evil gods, Ivan sees a second possibility.

With the clues he now finds, he quickly adds a story to his mind: initially the Guardians sealed the gates of death and the evil gods within them, leaving a powerful seal, but as time goes by, the power of the seal becomes weaker and weaker, and the spirit of the evil gods gradually penetrates from the alien space into the real world.

By some coincidence, it bewitched the young Darien, parasitized in his heart, and then resorted to Darien to carry out evil dark magic, gradually affecting the entire Ravenclaw family of wizards, making them irrational, opening the door to death, leading to eventual destruction...

As to why it would be destruction, not the arrival of evil gods, probability has something to do with the magic of Ravenclaw's ancestors remaining in the castle.

The castle, while intact, has a strong guardian magic with its overall architectural structure and interior settings.

As Ghost Marcus put it, the ultimate designer arranged magic in the castle, and the five towers in the periphery and the “top of the stars" of the central tower were connected to the meeting point. The inner structure of the castle was also built for this magic, and many passages were restricted in order to guarantee the integrity of the spell script.

Although the shadows of light do not show these, above the stone walls of the castle, Ivan finds traces of an ancient magic that is no longer recognisable, painted by gold wire, and can only rarely see the traces of the past, but it does exist, and these traces are part of the magic.

This proves that the castle is indeed over-powered, not by the magic of swinging the wand, but by the magic of ancient alchemy left behind by Ravenclaw's ancestors or the original guardians, who were triggered to control it when the gates of death were opened.

While there are other things that Ivan can't explain, such as how this powerful magic works, and what happened the day the door was opened, things are now gradually contoured compared to the first fog.

Of course, these are Ivan's speculations, but they're very likely.

This conjecture explains many of the strange things he felt before, such as why the ghost Marcus could not see the traces of the Black Witch's manoeuvres at the gate of death in the heart of the lake, and before Ivan's reminder, he did not seem to notice these strange statues under the garden, and it was very difficult to recall anything about Young Master Darien, as if there was a force in the underworld that was stopping him from going back.

If all of this is influenced by Darien's own dark magic, there's nothing strange about it.

Ivan thought, carefully watching the stone sculptures below, looking for clues that might be left behind.

To date, these stone sculptures are the only thing in the castle directly related to Darien Ravenclaw.

Perhaps he was sculpted in the process of being parasitized or bewitched by evil gods. After all, loss of reason is a gradual process and cannot be done overnight.

Through the huge overhanging windows, Ivan watched closely, and the statues outside the garden, this time near the ballroom, were mostly extremely abstract and difficult to describe, or monsters like Medusa who appeared in mythical legendary stories, implicitly giving him a familiar feeling.

It's like the evil god he saw in the temple of the Horseman, but there's a lot of difference, an unnamed sense of disobedience.

As we approach the “top of the stars” of the castle's central tower, the disobedience of the statue begins to grow stronger and stronger.

They seem to become more abstract, but this abstraction is not as trashy as it was initially, but gradually begins to have a certain pattern.

Ivan didn't say it well, but there was this feeling.

Also, the statue is getting stronger and stronger with evil spirits!

The more powerful Darien became, the weaker he became in control of himself, all through the statues in the garden.

“These statues must have something to do with evil gods, some kind of evil god creation!” Ivan can be sure.

But not the evil god he was familiar with, but...

Suddenly, there seemed to be some sensation. His gaze quickly passed through the hollow suspension windows and numerous statues in the garden, which eventually landed on a statue of human beings that had already been pushed towards the central tower. The statue itself was severely damaged and weathered, but it was rare to see what it looked like in the magical light.

From the back, it's kind of like a Dementor!

That's right, Dementor, guard of Azkaban Wizard Prison!

Ivan is familiar with these evil god creatures created by despicable Hellborough!

Not quite clear from this point of view, but he can be sure that it is the Dementors!

In other words, the evil spirits that appear here are the evil spirits that the despicable Hailbao has turned into.

Inside the Gate of Death is the space of the despicable Hailbo!

Wait, how is this possible?!
