The Land of the Dead!
The former territory of the Ravenclaw Family, the place where the wizards of the Ministry of Magic first discovered the Door of the Dead.
A few days ago at Bellatrix's place, Elwyn had used the Soul Catcher to extract his thoughts from her head to see that place. He saw many wizards in black cloaks, rummaging through the ruins everywhere. There were shadows of people moving about, and in the distance, there were shadows of mountains. The soil on the ground was deathly black, lifeless.
There was also a tree in the ruins, a huge tree that was shocking.
The tree had withered and died, and there was not a trace of green on it. Instead, it was covered with the corpses of crows.
It was a place filled with the aura of death, dark and strange.
The air seemed to be filled with a unique aura. Even though it was just a scene, Elwyn could still clearly feel it.
He did not like that place. He felt evil and ominous in that place.
"You plan to go to the Land of the Dead to find Potter and Weasley?" Lucius revealed a malicious smile. "How brave. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to go there. According to the legends, after the death of Rowena Ravenclaw, the territory of the Ravenclaw Family suffered a terrible curse. "
"Hmm, curse?"
"Evil black magic gushed out from the ancestral home of the Ravenclaw Family, covering the sky and the sun. The water of the surrounding lake disappeared overnight, and a terrible plague wreaked havoc, taking away all life in that area. The former land of life became a veritable forbidden zone, and the aura of death permeated the air. In the following centuries, all the wizards who tried to enter the ancestral home of the Ravenclaw Family died, and not a single one had a good ending. " Lucius's voice became softer and softer until it was like a whisper. "There are many rumors. Some people say that it is connected to Hell, just behind the door of the Ministry of Magic. It was found in the depths of the Ravenclaw Family's residence."
"Not a bad story, but I've never heard of it …" Elwyn said, curling his lips.
He knew that Lady Ravenclaw came from Tranquil Lake. This was what the Sorting Hat told everyone at the beginning of school.
As for other information about the Ravenclaw family, he could not find any relevant records in the books.
In the history of magic, after the death of Lady Ravenclaw, the once illustrious Ravenclaw family suddenly disappeared, quietly withdrawing from the stage of history. In the history of magic in the next few worlds, there were no records of Ravenclaw, which was very suspicious.
However, Iven had never been associated with any curse before. It was simply too bizarre to think of such a thing.
He was well aware of Lady Ravenclaw's strength, more so than any other wizard.
It was because of this understanding that Elwyn knew that Lady Ravenclaw's strength and terror lay not only in her wisdom, but also in her control of the magic of souls and time.
If she wanted to, she could influence and change what happened at any point in time.
Although she had passed away a thousand years ago, in the timeline, she existed forever and could appear at any time. Unlike the immortality that made the body or soul immortal, Lady Ravenclaw relied on her extraordinary wisdom and mastery of time magic to obtain immortality from another angle.
Therefore, Elwyn did not believe that the Ravenclaw family would be cursed.
Unless, this was Lady Ravenclaw's own will.
She once expressed to Elwyn that she hated the bloodline talent she inherited from her family and hated the enviable wisdom.
This was because the price to pay to become the smartest wizard in the world was to lose all emotions. This was a curse.
Lady Ravenclaw had said that she hoped that she would be the last person in her family to obtain this bloodline talent. Could it be …
Elwyn recalled that he had returned to the Hogwarts a thousand years ago and the conversation with Lady Ravenclaw. Things became more and more confusing.
Seeing that Elwyn was deep in thought, Lucius seemed to think that he was afraid. He continued in that lazy tone. "Of course you haven't heard of these things, Mason. This is the top secret of the Ministry of Magic. After the Door of Death was discovered, all information about that area was forbidden to spread. It can't be found in places like the Hogwarts' library. Even the forbidden book area can't collect this top-secret information. Only the truly noble wizards with a long family history have the opportunity to come into contact with it, such as Malfoy … "
The top-secret information he was talking about was related to the Department of Mysterious Affairs of the Ministry of Magic, which was top secret.
Even in the Ministry of Magic, only the silent people knew about it. There were many secrets that even the Minister of the Ministry of Magic did not have the right to know.
However, for Malfoy to be able to obtain this information, it was very likely that he had used gold to exchange for it.
The Ministry of Magic never had any real secrets. It just depended on whether you could pay the corresponding price.
"Many terrible things have happened there. Do you need me to tell you in detail?"
"No, Mr. Malfoy. I'm not interested in illusory legends." Elwyn quickly sorted out his thoughts. "If it is as you said, that it became a forbidden zone for life overnight, then there must be a reason, and I am confident that I can uncover this mystery."
"You are very confident, Mason. I hope that is not foolish courage," Lucius said sarcastically.
"I hope not!" Elwyn did not refute Lucius. He had trump cards that Malfoy did not know about. Whether it was Ravenclaw's Coronet or the Time Converter, they could all help him find the truth. However, there was no need for Malfoy to listen to them. "I hope you can tell me where that place is."
"I have a detailed map of the Land of Death with all the information you need," Lucius said. "But I must remind you again that you may not be afraid of those ancient legends, but if you really plan to go there, you better be careful of the Black Witch. That woman is different from ordinary Dark Wizards. She is even more terrifying than most Death Eaters. She is there to find the secrets related to the Door of Death for the Dark Lord. She is using death to explore death …"
"Using death to explore death?" Elwyn asked, puzzled. He did not quite understand what Lucius meant.
"That is the most evil witchcraft, boy!" Lucius raised his voice. "No one knows what the Black Witch is looking for, but too many people have died there recently. They are using the power of death to cast spells to explore the ancient and evil source of power buried under that land."
Using the power of death to cast spells sounded terrifying.
"Well, thank you for the reminder, Mr. Malfoy," Elwyn said. "I thought you were eager for me to die!"
"Hmph, what good does that do for Malfoy?!" Lucius continued. "Once Malfoy gives, he needs to receive an equal return. Before receiving the return, I do not want you to die because of your stupidity. But if you really die, it does not seem too bad … "
