In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

Chapter 217 215. Blood Curse Orc

Jon took Neville and the three of them back to the tower with a large stack of books about ancient runes.

He did not immediately tell Sir Stoker the meaning of the magic text on the slate. After all, he learned the meaning from Nick, and Nick's existence could not be revealed to the outside world. He could only pretend to look it up first. Bring these magic books from the tower.

Sir Stoker did not let him work directly at the top of the tower. Although the scenery there was better, it was almost Christmas and the air was too cold. A warm room with a fireplace would be more comfortable.

Taking Jon to his private study, Sir Stoker took out the magic text rubbings taken from the stone slab on the top of the tower to facilitate his comparison.

Jon pretended to flip through the magic books casually, but the corner of his eye was focused on the books placed in the study room.

Just by looking at the titles, you can see that most of these books are tomes related to astronomy. Not only are they written by wizards, but there are also many books that are obviously published by Muggle publishing houses.

This knight does have an extraordinary interest in astronomy. He has made it clear from the first time he met Jon, and it seems that he is not lying.

But just when Jon was about to look away and pretend to have made a sudden discovery inadvertently, he saw some books that were completely different from other astronomy-related books at the very corner of the bookshelf.

These books were grouped together, and the book covers looked older. They were obviously not the works of modern wizards.

What attracted Jon was the title of one of the books.

"Research and Exploration on the Blood Curse Orc Curse"

Jon's unusual movements at this time were finally noticed by Sir Stoker. He followed his gaze and saw the ancient books on the bookshelf.

"My grandfather's grandfather once served as the deputy director of the Magic Hospital in France. His main research direction in his life was related to blood-cursed orcs. This is an extremely partial and terrible curse that has been used since ancient times. There is no way to relieve or cure it, and my ancestor only left these information. If you are interested, you can read it at any time during the time you stay in the tower."

Sir Stoker said generously.

Jon withdrew his gaze from those books. He simply had some impressions of curses such as the blood-cursed orcs. The big snake Nagini, who was later made into a Horcrux by Voldemort in the original book, was the final form of the blood-cursed orcs.

Jon had no interest in the curse itself, such as the blood-cursed orcs.

"Thank you for your generosity Sir, let's go back to our original topic. I have found out some clues about the content of the magic text left on that stone slab."

Jon looked at Sir Stoker, and indeed there was an expression of surprise on his face.

"Will there be results so soon? I originally thought it would take at least a while."

"This is actually a matter of luck. Our luck is obviously pretty good. From the beginning of the book I looked through, I found the same content as the magic text on the stone slab."

Jon retells the information he received from Nick to Sir Stoker.

"This slate is supposed to be a lock."

"Lock?"

The smile on Jazz's face gradually faded, and his brows furrowed tightly.

"You mean, the purpose of the stone slab itself is actually to protect and hide something?"

Jon nodded and said.

"Yes, the magic text engraved on the stone slab is actually a kind of sealing magic. It protects the stone slab from being easily opened, thus preventing anyone from discovering what is hidden under it."

As Jon told the story, Sir Stoker's face became more and more gloomy.

He obviously couldn't accept this.

He had built most of the tower with his own hands and had lived in it for decades, but someone was hiding things under his nose without any notice, and he didn't even know about it.

Jon saw the change in Jazz's expression, and he asked seriously.

"Are you sure that it wasn't you or someone else in the tower who arranged this stone slab?"

Sir Stoker said extremely decisively.

"I don't know a single magic text at all. Apart from me, the only one in this tower is Rabiel who has been taking care of my daily life. There is no chance of it."

Jon stroked his beard and said thoughtfully.

"If you're sure it's not you, then it's only possible that someone slipped in without you knowing."

"Professor Johnson." Sir Stoker suddenly looked at Jon seriously, "Can you... unravel the magic text on this stone slab?"

There was a plea in his words, as if he simply couldn't accept that there would be something hidden in his home that he didn't know about.

Jon told the truth.

"I've told you before, Sir, I'm not a magic text master. If the ancient magic text professor who works with me in school comes over, there may be a way to solve it, but my understanding of magic text Just out of interest, there is really no way to unlock this stone slab from the level of magic text."

After hearing Jon's words, Sir Stoker showed a frustrated expression on his face at first, but in the last sentence, he obviously heard some different meanings.

"There is no way from the magic text level... What do you mean..."

Jon said very calmly.

"Magic scripts are indeed not my strong point, but I have some other tricks that can solve these magic scripts. However, this method will destroy the magic scripts on the stone slab and eliminate the magic power attached to them. …”

"I don't mind, Professor Johnson! It would be even better if you could erase the magic on this stone slab." Sir Stoker said, "I just want to know who hid such a thing in my house and his purpose." What is it again?"

Jon certainly wasn't surprised by his decision.

Then the two of them left the study and returned to the top of the tower where the cold wind was blowing.

On the way, Jon quietly put the ring that was originally hanging around his neck back on his finger. Returning to the stone slab, he gently touched the first magic text in the first line with the finger wearing the ring. .

The magic text flickered for a moment, and then the magic power originally attached to it was transferred to the second gemstone inlaid on the ring.

There is no limit to the amount of magic energy attached to magic items for Jon. Unlike using universal unspelling to absorb magic energy from enemy spells, he can only find people with the same magic power as himself or weaker than him. The attached magic power lacks the control of will, so it is much easier for the ring to absorb it.
