Dumbledore didn't pretend to be stupid. He really didn't know what the Dragon Soul Crypt was.
"Jon, can you be a little more specific? What is the Dragon Soul Crypt?"
Jon was speechless for a moment.
The expression on Dumbledore's face clearly wasn't fake, and he really didn't know.
This was something that Jon didn't expect.
As a headmaster, he actually didn't know about the existence of the Dragon Soul Crypt. Then why did Helga ask him to look for Dumbledore?
And most importantly, Jon himself didn't know what the Dragon Soul Crypt was, only the name.
Neither of them knew, but there was always someone who knew.
The portraits of the headmasters on the wall began to discuss, and Jon listened. Surprisingly, more than half of the headmasters had never heard of this name.
"Because the crypt has long been out of use," said a portrait of a male headmaster.
A portrait of a headmaster said. Chown was standing far away from him, so he couldn't see the headmaster's name clearly. He only heard him say, "After the war, the crypt lost its function."
Dumbledore stroked his beard, then pressed something that looked like a magic array on the side of the headmaster's desk.
Obviously, he was calling for someone.
Jon didn't know what to do, so he sat in the chair opposite the headmaster's desk under Dumbledore's signal.
He waited quietly.
The portrait of the headmaster who had spoken earlier didn't speak anymore, or rather, it wasn't that he didn't speak, but his voice suddenly became much softer.
The headmasters who didn't know about the existence of the crypt swarmed into the portrait of the headmaster, and everyone gathered together and began to discuss in an inaudible voice.
No one cared that Dumbledore didn't know about the crypt's existence.
Of course, this wasn't because the portraits were disrespectful to the headmaster, but they knew that Dumbledore had a way to find out about this problem from other sources, and in more detail, so there was no need for them to talk about it.
Dumbledore had been in the headmaster's position for many years, and everyone knew his style of doing things very well.
Therefore, they wouldn't say much unless Dumbledore asked.
Of course, Dumbledore didn't need to ask these questions now. After successfully bringing Naughty Ghost back to the principal's office, he once again had the principal's secretary.
No matter what the reason was, as long as Naughty Ghost was willing to return to the principal's office, it was a good thing.
And as the principal's secretary who had existed for as long as the Hogwarts School and had an extraordinary memory, she knew more than most of the principal's portraits.
In fact, there was no need to go through so much trouble. Jon came through Helga, and there was a portrait of Helga in the principal's office.
However, Helga's portrait wasn't here today, so Jon couldn't even find an assist.
Naughty Ghost quickly crawled in from under the floorboards. When he was working, he was not as destructive as he usually was.
Dumbledore glanced at Naughty Ghost who was floating by the side, and asked about the Dragon Soul Crypt.
This wasn't some ancient history. Mischievous Ghost thought about it for a moment and remembered.
There was a high possibility that the Dragon Soul Crypt was abandoned in the same year that Naughty Ghost went crazy.
Therefore, he remembered this matter more clearly.
"The Dragon Soul Crypt was used as a prison in the past. Later on, it was used as a place to store top-notch secrets. It should be called the Crypt now. Principal, you should know this place."
Of course, Dumbledore knew this place.
Because the Hogwarts Crypt stored extremely confidential and important magic items. These magic items came from the families of the Hogwarts directors and important heads of the Ministry of Magic. They put these things in Hogwarts mainly because they didn't trust Gringotts.
After all, it wasn't only the people of the East who understood that, they understood it too.
"If that's the case, then I'll agree to your request." Dumbledore turned his head to Jon, "The Crypt's location and the things inside are very important. I can't easily allow you to enter. In fact, to enter and leave this place, you need the approval of the directors."
Jon raised his eyebrows, trying to find a way to turn the situation around from Dumbledore's words.
But there was none. Dumbledore's expression and eyes were very firm. There was no turning back now.
"Erm, actually there is a way."
Seeing Dumbledore's troubled expression, Naughty Ghost said, "In order to ensure safety, the Dragon Soul Crypt was built with a total of three floors. Later on, when it was converted into a Crypt for storage, the third floor was sealed.
Because, the third floor was used to imprison criminals of the Holy See. Although there are quite a lot of sealing magic in the Dragon Soul Crypt, the third floor is the most special.
It was built with the skeleton of an entire Holy Dragon and the souls of two dragons. Back then, the founder Ravenclaw added [Legendary Spell – Mana Exclusion] to the dragon skeleton on the third floor to ensure that the third floor is in a prison state without magic elements.
In addition to the other Wizard's magic, there is no sound or light in the entire third floor, which was why it was stopped. If you want to use it, you can use that place. "
Chown had not communicated with Naughty Ghost before, so Naughty Ghost had only just found out that he was going to use the Dragon Soul Crypt. If he had told Chown before, he would have advised Chown to give up on entering the Dragon Soul Crypt.
That place was really not a place for people to stay.
Because there was no trace of people in there.
Other than the two high-ranking figures of the Holy See who were imprisoned, no other living people had ever entered, not even when it was first built.
The entire third floor was built with magic. Helga used earth magic to drill deep under the Hogwarts and made many underground passages. This was how he built the Hogwarts Castle into a Wizard base camp that could defend against the attacks of the Holy See's divine spells.
In such a silent space, even ghosts would feel that they couldn't survive.
The so-called silence at the beginning of the world's birth was just like that.
"So …" Dumbledore obviously didn't have any objections to this suggestion. He could even protect Jon when he entered, "Now it's up to you, Jon."
Jon pondered and began to think about the feasibility of entering the third floor.
It was very dangerous, but Helga wanted him to go.
If it was only to use the bloodline purification potion once, was it worth the risk?
