"Ordinary people only know that star grass is used to refine magic potions or perform star magic. But what they don't know is that the star grass itself resonates with the properties of the stars and is perfect for divining other people's traces. Especially when used in a sorcerer's secret realm, the effect is excellent. This is what I saw in a sorcerer's secret realm book."
Master David sat cross-legged on the grass. As he spoke, he waved his hands. A large number of runes floated up and merged into the five star grasses floating in the air.
At the same time, around the star grass, rhinoceros bones, dark green jade, purple flower, etc. floated and rotated.
As Master David continued to wave the sling ring, a large number of runes continued to fall into various materials floating in the air.
The number of runes seemed to have reached an extreme, and with a roar, orange flames suddenly appeared, burning various magic materials around the Star Grass.
Soon, the material melted into wisps of liquid of different colors, white, green, purple, etc. appeared one after another.
Then under the guidance of Master David, the star grasses converged towards each other in the middle.
At the same time, the sounds of spells came from everyone's ears.
"Calling on the power of the stars. peer into time. Pursuing the traces of destiny."
Along with the sound of the spell, everyone felt the wind blowing around them, the magic power changed drastically, and even various mysterious sounds were faintly heard in their ears.
The star grass in mid-air began to tremble continuously, sucking in the purple, white, green and other liquids gathered around it.
All kinds of scenes make people feel very strange.
The color of the star grass also began to change, with purple, green, blue and other colors appearing one after another, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
Everyone felt a strange smell slowly drifting in.
At the same time, the Star Grass continued to emit wisps of mist of different colors.
Floating in mid-air, converging into one picture fragment after another.
Among them, there are scenes of Snape casting spells to kill giant snakes, communicating with Lockhart, tasting various potions, etc.
After everyone saw it, a smile appeared on their faces.
Master David watched quietly when the picture was about to disappear.
He took out a black compass, and at the same time mist of various colors slowly merged into the pointer in the middle of the compass.
After a while, the gray star grass fell.
The pointer showed colorful colors, and then, as if it sensed something, it slowly shook and quickly pointed to the southeast.
Seeing this, Master David looked happy and said in a deep voice.
"Everyone, the traces of Lockhart and the others have been found."
Deep in the sorcerer's secret realm, in a void of space.
Dark, empty, and silent.
It seems like it's still the same after hundreds or thousands of years.
Suddenly
For some unknown reason, a faint voice sounded.
"Calling on the power of the stars. Peer into time. Pursuing the traces of destiny."
call!
This weak sound seemed to activate something. In the entire empty space, ripples appeared and spread in all directions.
But soon, as if something was touched, the green light flashed, and the ripples suddenly retracted as if time had been reversed.
Everything seems to be back to its original appearance.
At the same time, there was a faint sound of resentful curses.
"You can't kill me, Ancient One!"
"."
"You want to use me as resource for your power."
"."
"As long as I don't die, I will make my vengeance."
At this moment, on a lake in the sorcerer's secret realm, a huge ball of light emerged, dispelling the darkness of the night.
Lockhart and Snape stood at the edge of the lake, watching the huge basilisk enter the lake.
A large number of fish were hiding in all directions as if frightened.
At the same time, water blades, water balls, water arrows and other magic fell on the basilisk's body.
But they were all blocked by the black scales on the basilisk's body and remained unscathed.
Wow!
The basilisk pushed its huge body and stirred up waves one after another.
Along with the escape of many fish creatures, the sound of rushing water continued.
At this time, Lockhart closed his eyes slightly, reached into the lake with his spiritual power, and called the basilisk to enter the bottom of the lake.
Soon, the lake surface gradually returned to calm. The flashing black shadows on the lake surface and the sound of rushing water showed that the basilisk was constantly swimming and exploring.
At this time, Snape was standing on the shore, observing the lake surface through the bright light emitted by the light ball.
suddenly
Snape frowned, turned his head quickly, looked back, and at the same time stretched out his wand, looking alert.
Just now, he felt someone had spy on him.
As a wizard, he doesn't doubt his instincts.
Thoughts flashed, Snape waved the wand in his hand, releasing one detecting spell after another around him.
At the same time, he did not forget to cast defensive spells on himself and Lockhart.
But after a moment, as the sense of voyeurism disappeared, the spell brought no feedback.
This made Snape tense up and feel something bad in his heart.
His many years of combat experience told him that someone was definitely spying on him just now.
Could it be some kind of magical creature?
While Snape was thinking, suddenly
The sound of water sounded, and the basilisk swam out, holding a huge scallop in its mouth.
Then put it in front of Lockhart.
By this time Lockhart had already opened his eyes, waved his wand, and opened the scallops.
Looking at the huge pearl among the scallops, and the familiar magic on the surface of the pearl.
Lockhart gave a wry smile, waved his hand gently, closed the scallop and returned to the lake intact.
Sure enough, most of the growth points of magic resources do not exist without roots.
To be precise, these were all born with the trophies gain by all ancient sorcerer of the previous and now generation as fertilizer.
Just like the previous dragon skeleton, it was definitely buried underground by the ancient sorcerer, and then produced various snake fruits, magical creatures, etc. as magic materials.
The same was true for the pearl just now. If Lockhart knew clearly, the magic power of the ancient sorcerer was wrapped around the pearl.
It seems to remind every sorcerer who finds it not to touch the scallops and pearls without permission.
With these pearls used as fertilizer, some water-based magic materials and magical creatures were produced in the lake.
No wonder before entering the secret realm, it was emphasized that destructive mining should not be carried out.
The so-called destructive mining means not touching the fertilizer that The previous or current Sorcerer Supreme buried in the ground.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Lockhart shook his head slightly helplessly.
To be honest, if it weren't for his lack of strength, he would especially want to grab all the trophy.
The entire sorcerer's secret realm and every resource point come from The Sorcerer Supreme's handiwork.
He don't know how many enemies were captured by the current or previous sorcerer supreme and used as fertilizer to continuously provide a large amount of magic materials to Kamar Taj.
Well, it can be said that the current or previous sorcerer supreme has supported the entire Kamar Taj with their own efforts. This is definitely not a lie.
While Lockhart was thinking.
Snape's faint voice came to his ears.
"Lockhart, I'm afraid we're being targeted!"
