Chapter 137 Graves

Large paragraphs of text poured into Mike's mind. These words were neither powerful spells nor unique spellcasting techniques, but Ms. Ravenclaw's understanding of magic.

What is magic?

Mike had thought about this question in the dead of night.

Originally, he thought that magic was a mixture of a person's physical strength and mental strength, that is, the combination of the two gave birth to the magic that could cast all kinds of magical spells.

This can also explain why the magic of a young wizard will continue to grow rapidly until he reaches adulthood at the age of 17, because children's bodies and minds are constantly developing and becoming stronger before the age of 17. As a matter of course, the magic based on these two will naturally continue to grow stronger.

And the few old wizards like Dumbledore, whose bodies have aged but whose magic is extremely amazing, are because they have made their mental strength stronger and stronger through continuous practice. The strong mental power not only strengthens their own magic but also feeds back their physical strength and delays the aging of their bodies. This also explains why powerful wizards have longer lifespans than ordinary people.

But after accepting Ravenclaw's understanding of magic, Mike found that his original understanding of magic was completely wrong. Magic is magic, and it is not a mixture of physical strength and mental strength.

Whether it is Muggles or wizards, magic exists in their cells. The only difference between the two is that the magic in wizards is very active and will become stronger and stronger as the body and mind grow.

Strictly speaking, wizards are more like the product of a genetic mutation, but this genetic mutation is benign and will bring powerful power to mutants.

This is one of the reasons why the concept of pure blood supremacy has been so popular in the past few hundred years, because if this genetic mutant combines with another genetic mutant, there is a high probability that their offspring will also be genetic mutants.

On the contrary, if a genetic mutant combines with a normal person, it is very likely that a normal person who cannot use magic will be born, which is the so-called squib.

Magic is not a dead thing. They are like naughty children. In addition to forcibly controlling them with mental power, you need to understand them and make friends with them if you want to control them freely.

Spells, wands and even emotions are tools to control these magic powers to be released in the way that wizards want. With these tools developed by the sages after countless years, people in later generations can more conveniently manipulate magic power to release spells.

Mike, who figured this out, slowly woke up from the endless darkness. When he opened his eyes, a hint of blue flashed in his bright eyes.

Mike knew nothing about this and silently exited the closed state of his brain, feeling the magic power in his body.

After getting Ravenclaw's understanding of magic power, Mike found that he could actually sense the emotions of the magic power in his body.

Those magic powers seemed to have self-awareness, playing and frolicking in every blood vessel of Mike, conveying joy to Mike.

Mike tried to use his mental power to send them the emotion of playing together. Unexpectedly, these magic powers seemed to understand Mike's meaning, and all gathered around Mike's mental power and rotated, very active.

Feeling the active magic power around his own mental power, Mike was moved and unconsciously recited the most familiar spell.

"The flames are blazing."

A dazzling purple flame burst out from the tip of the black prickly pear wand, forming a noble and gorgeous purple phoenix in the air.

This phoenix made of purple flames is almost an enlarged version of Dumbledore's phoenix Fawkes. Four purple tail feathers drag behind it, and the patterns of each feather are clearly visible. It is hard to believe that it is made of flames.

The purple phoenix flew and circled in the air, and it chirped from time to time.

Listening to these crisp chirps, Mike couldn't help but laugh.

These sounds were made by him controlling the magic power to use the principle of heating the air with flames.

His magic control has greatly improved after receiving Ravenclaw's understanding of magic. It's a pity that he only received the understanding of magic, and Mike didn't receive the deeper knowledge of how to control magic, otherwise Mike would have become a master of spells.

The light of the purple phoenix illuminated the entire night sky. Thanks to this, Mike also saw the environment he was in now.

Behind him was the huge stone door, and the light of the magic lighting stone inside the stone door was faintly visible. Mike was surrounded by lush trees, and occasionally a pair of small eyes with glowing lights flashed through the trees, and disappeared after taking a look at the purple phoenix in the sky.

A little further in front of Mike was a large lawn, which was very flat and full of various beautiful flowers. Mike could smell the rich fragrance of flowers from a distance.

In the center of the lawn was a huge stone platform, which was made of black stone. Under the illumination of the purple phoenix in the sky, it was faintly reflecting purple light.

Suddenly, Mike felt a stuffiness in his chest.

Knowing that this was a sign that the magic power was about to run out, Mike quickly dispersed the purple phoenix in the sky and used fluorescent flashing lighting instead.

The phoenix in the sky finally made a pleasant cry and turned into sparks floating down, and disappeared before it fell to the ground.

The forest without the purple phoenix returned to the original pitch-black darkness. Mike realized that the night sky above his head was also pitch black, with no trace of the moon or stars.

Suppressing his doubts, Mike came to the black stone platform with the faint light of the fluorescent light. When he approached, Mike found that there was a small platform on the platform, which was still made of black stone.

On this small platform, there was a European-style long sword.

"The Sword of Victory and Oath!"

Mike couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the long sword. He was very familiar with the appearance of the long sword. It was the strongest silver sword that almost killed him - the Sword of Victory and Oath! Mike ,

who didn't activate the brain occlusion technique, could no longer suppress his inner joy. He took two steps at a time and rushed to the side of the European-style long sword.

Looking at the sharp sword without a scabbard in front of him, inserted straight into the black stone platform, Mike was more certain that this was the Sword of Victory and Oath that he had been thinking about day and night, and it was also the strongest silver sword that could destroy the crown.

At the same time, Mike also noticed that on the black platform directly below the holy sword, there was a mysterious inscription that Mike had seen in the meditation method given by the raven statue:

"The Tomb of Rowena Ravenclaw and Geralt of Rivia."
