These flashes of light on the jade indicated that the original magic in the hall was still in effect.
But it was not triggered. It did not look like a defensive spell, and there might not be a chance to trigger it again in the future!
Until hundreds or thousands of years later, the magic completely dissipated, and the jade became ordinary decorations.
"This hall is really shocking beyond imagination." Elwyn exclaimed. He lowered his head to study the patterns laid out by the jade for a while, his gaze following the flashes of light forward. But very quickly, he was lost in the mysterious magic runes, and had no clue what they were.
Two years ago, he saw a similar magic at the top of the centaur temple in the forbidden forest.
That was left behind by Gryffindor, and could absorb the power of the stars and gather it into a magic stone.
At that time, Elwyn was amazed at the power of Gryffindor and the scale of that magic.
But now it seemed that compared to the magic formed by the jade before him, the scale of that magic formation was really too small!
A magic of this scale was simply a miracle to the current Magi.
From the expressions of the Magi in the hall who were here for the first time, as well as those who were measuring and recording the magic runes on the ground, it could be seen that they did not dare to believe that this was a magic...
Elwyn took a deep breath and no longer looked at the jade on the ground.
He asked Lavier beside him, "Did Gringotts find anything here?"
"Not too much, at least not the treasures that the fairies hoped for. The God's Vault is the first hall after entering the Sun Ruins. Generally speaking, there won't be anything too valuable. " Lavier said as he walked, "The twelve excavation teams in charge of this place have checked everywhere, and did not find any abnormal magic or hidden secret passages. Their current mission is to break the curse on the door that leads to the inside of the ruins."
The fairies were never archaeologists. Their focus was on the treasures in the ruins.
Of course, most ancient relics were worth a lot of money. When Gringotts' excavation teams encountered these things, they would also excavate them and sell them to the Egyptian Ministry of Magic, the Muggle government, or any organization or individual that was interested in these things.
The statues of the gods in the God's Vault and the magic on the ground were not worth much in their eyes!
It was not valuable and could not be moved away. Naturally, it would be taken over by the wizards of the Ministry of Magic...
However, as Lavier had said, through the visit, Elwyn had a deeper understanding of the entire Sun relic and the system of ancient Egyptian gods.
"Although there is no treasure here, it has high research value. Scholars, ancient magic researchers, magic historians, and archaeologists of Muggle will be interested in this place." "You should know that there are a total of 221 statues of gods in the God Vault. Apart from the few important gods that I told you about before, the statues of all the other gods are here. This is the first time in history that I've discovered something like this …"
"En!" Elwyn raised his head and looked at the tall statues, as well as the Magi who were in charge of repairing them.
The palaces and temples built by Ramesses II had always been famous for their grandeur and grandeur.
However, the stone statues in front of him completely exceeded Elwyn's imagination. They were so huge that he could only reach the instep of the statue.
Correspondingly, in front of these stone statues, Elwyn could clearly feel the fragility and insignificance of humans.
The wall behind the statues was decorated with exquisite murals, including stories of the gods, religious rituals, commemorative scenes and inscriptions describing the battles of the pharaoh's army, as well as images of Ramesses II using magic.
The dome and the ground were inlaid with jades, forming complex magic runes.
In the middle of the hall were statues of the ancient Egyptian gods, and in the deepest part was a raised stone platform.
A wide staircase ascended step by step. Stone pillars stood around the stone platform, and the statues of warriors in armor stood symmetrically beside the stone pillars.
In the middle of the stone platform was the statue of Ramesses II that Elwyn had seen sitting down.
Now that he was closer, he could observe the statue more clearly.
It was carved entirely from obsidian, and it was a very realistic representation of Ramesses II's appearance and form.
There were a few accessories on the statue, and Elwyn guessed that they were powerful magic equipment.
There were also hieroglyphs on the clothes, which should be the oldest ancient magic text. Elwyn had seen many of the words in the Book of Abraham, but he couldn't decipher them yet.
They were the same words. Was there a connection?
What did the information left behind by Ramesses II mean?
Could it be a powerful magic incantation?
There were many questions, but probably no one could answer them.
Deciphering the ancient magic text from the ancient Egyptian period had always been the most difficult part of the entire excavation.
The once powerful civilization had disappeared, and people had no way of knowing what the words they left behind represented, especially the ancient magic text, which was far more difficult to decipher than ordinary hieroglyphs.
Similarly, it could be applied to the grimoires.
Elwyn didn't understand why so many people wanted to find the Golden Sun Scripture and the Black Scripture of the Dead. These two grimoires were indeed legendary magic items. Perhaps they could help spellcasters obtain eternal life or summon the dead, but even if they found them, it was useless if they didn't know the ancient magic text …
Just like the Book of Abraham, as a well-known grimoire of the same period, Elwyn still didn't know what it said or how to use the magic in it. He could only use the passive effects of the book to restrain the evil gods.
Standing on the stone platform, he looked back and saw the entire hall.
An ancient and mysterious aura permeated the God's Vault, making it hard for people to breathe.
"Based on the artifacts and murals found so far, magic historians and the fairies of Gringotts speculated that the God's Vault was a banquet hall, where Ramesses II entertained the priests and monks of the gods," Lavier said.
Without a doubt, the space of the God's Vault was too huge if it was only used to entertain priests, monks, and hold religious celebrations.
Elwyn had learned a lot of hidden history from Kronos, the Titan of Time.
The era in which Ramesses II lived was the era when the gods were active.
At that time, the powerful ancient warlocks hadn't started killing the gods yet.
Perhaps Ramses II was here to entertain the gods, the real gods.
Standing on the platform, Ivan vaguely felt as if he could see the scene of the gods gathering here.
Behind the stone platform where Ramesses II was, there were more than 20 wizards working under the command of five fairies to break the curse on the stone door leading to the inner part of the ruins. They were using the method that Ivan had seen in the Great Pyramid. The wizards would use a method to break the curse and consume the power of the various curses on the stone door little by little.
