In the blink of an eye, the boiling lava became more and more violent.
The lava began to surge like waves, splashing against the rocks as if it could erupt at any time.
It was as if a monster hiding below was about to break out of its cocoon.
The dragon roared and hovered low in the air, sending waves of restlessness to Elwyn through the magic connection.
It wanted to escape, but Elwyn controlled it and did not let it leave. It began to resist Elwyn's Soul Snatch Spell.
Elwyn increased his magic to suppress the dragon's resistance, but this was only on the surface. The invisible flow of magic was even more frightening.
"This magic …" Harry stopped with a blank look on his face.
"Continue, Harry!" Elwyn shouted. He raised his wand, and a magic barrier appeared to protect them.
The splashing lava was blocked by the magic barrier. Harry looked at Elwyn and began to chant the spell on the door. This was a guided magic. It did not require much strength from the spellcaster. As long as Harry could finish chanting the Nagas' language on the door, the power of the magic text itself could activate the magic left here to open the vault.
Elwyn could feel that after Harry began to chant the words on the door in the Nagas' language, the surrounding magic began to gather toward Slytherin's locket in the center of the door. The locket was gathering and attracting magic, just like it had done many times before. The huge amount of magic that was free in the lava began to gather under its attraction. All of it gathered on the locket, and then was converted by the locket, using a form of energy to be directed to the Nagas' language on both sides.
As the energy poured into the door, the Nagas' language on the door glowed with a golden light.
This was the color of energy. The golden color of the incantation on the door was the color of the magic that was originally dissolved in the lava.
The light became more and more dazzling, and when the energy reached a certain level, the door would open. This was also the reason why Salazar Slytherin built the vault here. In addition to being deep underground, it was convenient to use magma to protect the vault, and it could also ensure the supply of magic to open this special door.
As the spell progressed, more and more runes were covered in gold. Soon, they covered the entire gate.
Under the infusion of powerful magic, the dark gold color slowly flowed upwards and finally converged into the emerald that formed the emblem of the Slytherin Family.
Just like the incantations on the door, the emerald was lit up and emitted a faint green light.
One, two, three …
In the blink of an eye, the entire emblem of the Slytherin Family was filled with magic, and the capital S seemed to come alive.
It was like a snake looking down at Harry who was chanting in front of the door, as if it was ready to pounce on him at any time. But this worrisome scene did not happen. Almost at the same time that magic was poured into the emblem, the door made a clicking sound. With the groove where the wand was placed as the center, the door split open, revealing a hole.
The next second, the vibration stopped.
Everything returned to normal. They opened the vault of the Slytherin Family.
After being sealed for a thousand years, this ancient vault was once again opened.
With the light from the magma, they could vaguely see that there was a round room inside.
It was not filled with gold, silver, and jewelry like other vaults, but there were many shelves along the wall.
"We opened it, the vault of Salazar Slytherin!" Hermione said excitedly, holding Elwyn's hand tightly. "This is unbelievable."
"Yes, but it happened right in front of us. Let's go in and see what Salazar Slytherin left behind," Elwyn said.
"Wait, Elwyn!" Hermione hurriedly stopped him. "Is there no other magic inside?"
"There won't be any danger, right?" Harry also asked. The magic that opened the door of the vault just now still left him with a lingering fear.
"Well, it's hard to say. Because they don't trust fairies, wizards often cast spells in their own vaults to protect the things inside from being stolen. Just like the vault of the Lestrange Family, the things inside were all cursed with a deadly mixture of spells, but I don't think Slytherin would use this kind of magic." Elwyn said, carefully looking inside. "And I don't feel any traces of magic, there shouldn't be any other magic … In fact, there seems to be nothing here."
The shelves were empty, or maybe there had been something on them, but a thousand years had caused them to decay and dissipate.
This was too depressing. They had spent so much effort to open Salazar Slytherin's vault, but there was no treasure inside.
Legendary magic items, ancient magic books, powerful magic potions, even gold and silver jewelry, none of these …
"The shrewd Slytherin came from that quagmire! He only believes in wizards with the purest bloodline, mud people can't get anything from him! " Elwyn said softly as he led Harry, Hermione, and Elaine in. "Be careful, see if you can find anything."
Elwyn looked at the empty vault. Had Slytherin already guessed that he would open his vault?
So, he had moved everything away early, just because Elwyn was not a pure-blooded wizard.
This was ridiculous, but considering Salazar Slytherin's personality, it was possible that such a situation would occur.
Or, the vault had been opened by the descendants of the Slytherin family before, and they came in and took everything away …
Considering the time factor, the possibility of this happening was also very high.
"There's nothing here." Elaine said jokingly. "It seems that this ancestor of mine did not intend to leave anything for me."
"This is probably the main reason why the fairies are not curious about this place," Elwyn said. "Although the result is regrettable, we …"
"Elwyn, Harry, come over and look at this!" Hermione suddenly shouted. She stopped in front of a wall and said.
Could it be that she had found something? The position of this wall happened to be right below the emblem of the Slytherin family.
Elwyn and the others hurried over and saw an inconspicuous drawing of a small silver snake on the wall.
Another secret chamber!
Salazar Slytherin really liked to build secret chambers. The silver snake on the wall was exactly the same as the entrance to the secret chamber in the school.
"Open it!" Harry stepped forward and hissed at the little silver snake in his snake-like voice.
The small snake seemed to understand him and slithered forward.
The next second, the wall shook and slid to both sides, revealing another hole. Inside was a spiral staircase.
