Chapter 89
Chapter 89-Salazar Slytherin
There was a gray mist in front of it, like a piece of gray spun yarn, with extremely low visibility.
Ulysses’ eyes narrowed slightly, and a familiar feeling came to his mind.
He looked at the fog in front of him quietly, took a step, and let the fog surround him.
I don’t know how long it has been before, and finally a gray light appeared in front of him. As Ulysses moved forward, the fog gradually dissipated, and his eyes suddenly opened up.
This is a gloomy and empty room, with eight candlesticks swaying blue candlelights distributed in the four corners of the floor and ceiling.
Ulysses’ pupils shrink slightly.
This place…he once saw it, in an inexplicable dream.
In the center of the room, there is a simple and weird altar. With the altar as the center, countless lines of varying lengths and unpredictable trajectories are intertwined, and each line has a dim fluorescent flicker, which looks strange and mysterious.
A basket was placed inside the altar. The basket was covered by curtains, making it impossible to see what was inside.
Outside the altar stood two people covered in black robes. They are tall and standing quietly.
Before long, there was a slight tremor in the room. Then, a beam of light suddenly erupted in the center of the altar, covering the basket inside.
The magic lines on the ground seemed to come alive, the light faintly flowing around the altar. A voice similar to the whispering chant of a wizard resounded all around, echoing in the room.
The two wizards pulled out their wands at the same time, and the tips of the wands touched each other. Where the wands touched, a black beam of light went straight to the altar.
This time, Ulysses was not shaken out of his dream like last time. He walked quietly, the curtains were tossed by the wind, and he could clearly see the contents of the basket bathed in the black beam of light.
It was a baby, a baby only over one year old.
Ulysses had a stormy sea in his heart. He has seen this photo of the body when he was a child. If his memory is correct, then this baby…
It’s me.
He walked up to the two black-robed wizards and saw their faces clearly through the light of the candlelight.
It was his parents who had only met a few times.
“Adams… is this really going to happen?”
“Serena, this is the end of the matter. Just put aside those unnecessary worries. He is my son. He is destined to have extraordinary talents and amazing achievements. Similarly, he should also bear the corresponding responsibilities.”
Ulysses heard the conversation of his parents. He was expressionless and walked to the basket. The baby inside opened his eyes wide, not crying or making trouble, silently watching everything in front of him.
There seemed to be some kind of cracking and crisp sound in his ears, and the whole space was like a glass being broken. Ulysses was just in a daze when he found himself standing in a completely unfamiliar place.
This room was equally dark, with only a faint candlelight emitting a faint light, which seemed to have been burning for thousands of years.
There are several shelves in the room, some of which contain bottles and cans of medicine, but the medicine inside has already evaporated, leaving only the medicine bottles that seem to be broken at the touch of a touch.
Others contained old and vicissitudes of books and notebooks, which Ulysses did not dare to touch, for fear that they would turn into fragments all over the floor when moved.
A desk is placed deep in the room, and there are also several books on it, as well as some anatomical drawings of magical creatures. Apart from this, there is nothing else.
‘That’s it? Who are you fooling? ’
A trace of doubt flashed in Ulysses’ heart, and he heard a faint voice of vicissitudes:
“Young man, don’t be greedy.”
The light released by the faint candlelight suddenly distorted, intertwined and changed in the air, and finally turned into an old wizard in a green robe.
His face is exactly the same as the statue outside.
“Are you Salazar Slytherin?”
Ulysses raised his brows, his mood fluctuating. He did not expect to come here, but Dean thousands of years ago.
“Yes, but not exactly. To be precise, I am just a piece of memory, or a program, left here by him.”
Salazar Slytherin’s expression was cold, and Ulysses saw in his eyes a cool, almost cold reason.
“…You can read mind?”
After thinking for a while, Ulysses asked without entangled in his identity.
“No. I just saw the doubts and dissatisfaction in your heart.”
Salazar Slytherin said coldly, “The greedy people are always impoverished.”
Ulysses smiled awkwardly, then asked:
“So, what happened to the scene I saw just now?”
“Everyone who enters here will fall into an illusion, which will project the deepest subconscious memory of the entrant.”
The figure of Salazar Slytherin was floating in the air, looking at Ulysses condescendingly.
“What’s the purpose?”
Ulysses asked softly, a slight dissatisfaction rising in his heart.
Although he didn’t have the slightest impression of this memory before, he didn’t like that others could easily pry into his own brain.
Even if that person is a legendary wizard whose glory has been shining for thousands of years.
“It is for me to screen the entrants and confirm whether he has the qualifications to stay here. A person’s deepest memory must contain a certain characteristic of him.”
Salazar Slytherin was like a cold program, with no emotion in his words.
Ulysses smiled playfully. “So, I was just a baby in that memory, what can you see from it?”
“See the potential in you.”
Salazar Slytherin was unmoved by Ulysses’ ridicule, “Your parents used a very interesting sacrificial magic, which will make your talent outstanding and memory outstanding.”
“What’s the price?”
Ulysses asked softly. He knows this truth very well.
“It varies from person to person.”
Salazar Slytherin said concisely, “On this basis, you are qualified to obtain the inheritance left by me.”
“This is enough?”
Ulysses raised his brow slightly.
“That’s enough. As long as you have enough talent, it doesn’t matter whether you are compassionate or full of evil.”
Salazar Slytherin floated to the desk and said coldly, “My research is more inclined to black magic and magical creatures. In these books are my reading manuscripts on some magic, which are marked with detailed Notes and ideas. There are also some research reports on magic creatures, including anatomical information and bloodline research. I don’t know whether those creatures still exist in your age, but for you, these drawings should also have high value. ”
Ulysses moved his gaze to the pile of blueprints, and it seemed as though the wailing of those magic creatures before they died.
“Mr. Slytherin, I would like to know more about the clues about the big library.”
He raised his eyes and looked at Salazar Slytherin.
Salazar Slytherin’s cold eyes suddenly sharpened.
