Chapter 524: Dark Magic

The library was full of wizards.

Orange magic lanterns provided simple and bright soft light, and wizards were gnawing on difficult books, occasionally sneaking a snack or two.

Madam Pince always turned a blind eye to this behavior; she wasn't as strict as the young wizards imagined.

And in the Restricted Section, the soft light came to an abrupt end; only a few dim lanterns were placed on the black wooden desk, illuminating every page for Sean.

"Most Poisonous Magic,"

Sean had some not-so-deep impressions of it.

"Most Poisonous Magic" was a classic book specifically recording the most dangerous and evil magic in the Wizarding World.

Its core content was knowledge about Horcruxes. However, the author of this book seemed to have extreme hatred for this kind of magic, so he explicitly refused to provide specific methods for making Horcruxes in the book.

But it did indeed introduce the concept of Horcruxes.

The screaming book calmed down after Sean touched it, and the black smoke that emerged also disappeared... this actually meant that the book was likely to have some curses.

Because Sean clearly knew this book didn't have any, he dared to touch it directly—otherwise, in the Restricted Section, one still had to be careful and more careful.

Ancient wizards were not kind people.

Sean remembered that there was an ancient book that would burn the reader's eyes blind; there was a "Wizard's Sonnets," and anyone who read this book could only speak in limericks for the rest of their life; and there was a book by old wizard Bas, which you would never be able to put down once you looked at it, and you would bury your face in the book wherever you went, having to learn to do everything with one hand.

Pulling back his thoughts, Sean opened the black and silver book cover and saw a name on the front: Godelot.

He paused slightly and continued reading.

【A chicken egg hatched by a toad will produce a dangerous giant serpent with extraordinary abilities. The outside world usually rumors that this is the evil discovery of Herpo the Foul.

But every sane wizard will find that this is gibberish.

Herpo the Foul did not discover the Basilisk, but rather, manufactured the Basilisk.

This is a kind of evil biological magic.】

Having found the chapter on Basilisk breeding, Sean's curiosity was not relieved at all, but instead completely attracted.

He moved his gaze away from the words "Evil Biological Magic" and began to recall the deeds of this Godelot:

With the help of a wand, he wrote a batch of dangerous spells, advancing the study of Dark Magic.

Sean was not unfamiliar with this batch of spells; the Biting Curse and Langlock all came from this dark wizard.

Unfortunately, his wand was the Elder Wand.

【My most evil and mysterious friend, the wand body is made of Elder (ancient word for Elder), familiar with all kinds of the most evil magic.

When I use it, I know where the wizard's magic comes from.】

A cold wind suddenly came from the Restricted Section; Sean looked up and saw that the night outside had deepened.

He stared at his wand, not knowing what he was thinking.

Rowan gossips, Chestnut is lazy,

Ash is stubborn, Hazel is delicate.

Elder wand, never prospers...

These few lines of nursery rhymes written in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" inexplicably appeared in his mind.

The Basilisk breeding process was clearly written in this book; Sean's goal had been achieved.

He first wrote the Basilisk breeding ritual word for word on parchment, and then continued to read: ===== CHAPTER 525 =====
