Harry Potter: The Age of Magic

Chapter 308 Letter

Author: Sissi who listens to stories

"Sisi, a piece of letter paper fell from Isabella's body."

Rossi, who had closed his eyes to relieve the pain, was about to open them when Irene stopped him and said, "Hey, if your eyes hurt, don't open them. I'll just read it to you!"

"This should be a letter from Axtis to her."

With that said, Irene came out with conviction, "Dear Isabella, by the time you read this letter, I should have already left. Please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye.

I have a very important and great thing to do. After I succeed, I will come back to you.

I have set up ritual magic in the basement. You have to go there for one hour every week. Only then will the ghouls I trained not attack you. That is my protection for you.

Isabella, I will miss you, and I hope that when we meet again in the future, your appearance will not change and your skin will still be as delicate and smooth as before."

"nausea!"

After reading this, Irene couldn't help but cursed, and then hurriedly explained, "Xixi, this sentence was scolded by me and was not written in the letter."

"Pfft!"

Rosie couldn't help but laugh out loud, shook his head and said, "I heard it, you continue to read."

"By the way, remember to feed Sait some carrion every few days. He must live well. If he is alive, I will feel better when I am with you. I love you... Extis."

Rosie thought the letter would end here, but she didn't expect that after Irene made a disgusted nasal noise, she continued:

"There are more sentences below, probably written by Isabella at different times:

The first day I miss you, bah... there are too many disgusting love words, I will eliminate them and read the key points to you!"

Erin's voice paused, "It's been three months, will you come back? Seat actually said you lied to me. It's really annoying. I want to throw him to Seat!"

Oh, dear, the ritual magic in the basement really saved me from being attacked by ghouls, huh! You didn't lie to me, and I hope you didn't lie to me about anything else either!

People from the village came and asked why the ghouls didn't attack me. Well... I had no choice but to take them to the basement.

You are a liar! Well, Dredd said the same thing, I left him to Seit, hee hee! I know, he wanted to lie to me too.

My body seemed to have changed a little bit, but Kuster said it was normal, well, she is the maid you hired, and she will definitely not lie to me."

"I hate you...I miss you...you lied to me...oh, so much nonsense!"

Erin complained depressingly and continued reading, "It's been so many years, why haven't you come back, liar! Have you been delayed by something? If you don't come back, the wrinkles on my skin will no longer be covered!"

Today, the new maid told me that fresh blood can nourish the skin. Well... I tried it on her and it felt very good. She really didn't lie to me.

My skin has regained its vitality. My dear, there are fewer and fewer people in the castle. When will you come back?

Kuster said, we can invite people from outside to visit the castle, well, that’s a good idea!”

When Erin finished reading this sentence, the system prompt sounded:

"Ding! Obtain important clues to the disappearance of Hailey Gregory: the letters in Isabella's personal collection."

Eh? Is this just a clue? It can’t be submitted for investigation?

The letter was so clear that everyone could guess that Hailey Gregory died at the hands of Isabella!

Do you want me to go around this castle and collect clues bit by bit before it can be considered a detection?

Rossi complained in his mind, and just when he was about to speak, he heard Fan on the side say in a deep voice:

"The maid's body is missing!"

Missing?

Rosie suddenly opened her eyes, holding back the sourness and looked towards the place where the maid's body had been. There was nothing there.

I walked there quickly and used [Footprint Appearance] to show the footprints, and then I realized that she had escaped by herself.

Seeing her footprints running into the room in the passage, Erin immediately asked: "Shall we chase her?"

"No!"

Rosie immediately refused, "Let's go to the basement and destroy the ritual magic."

"Yes, according to my experience, in this case, destroying ritual magic is much more useful than chasing down one or two monsters." Fan nodded in agreement.

I didn’t think too much about it, the main thing was that the time limit for the mission was running out!

After glancing at the countdown with only forty-five minutes left, Rossi immediately started taking action.

The way to the basement was not difficult to find. Entering through another passage that was symmetrical to the one the maid took them to, there was a downward staircase.

Probably because the villagers who believe in evil gods often come and go, this staircase is decorated by them in a weird and magical way.

Pushing open the wooden door at the bottom of the stairs, there is a small square room of about 60 square meters inside. Fourteen white candles are burning in each corner of the room, supported by rectangular pillars in the middle, with Axis hanging on it.

portrait.

As soon as he opened the door, a strong and strange evil aura hit his face. Rossi could feel the almost substantial aura of black magic without even turning on his vision.

The floors, walls, pillars, including the ceiling, are all engraved with dense ancient magic scripts.

"Don't go in yet!"

As a reminder, Fan took out three silver-plated arrows and put them on the crossbow, aimed at the three largest and most conspicuous magic words next to the ceiling where the pillars were connected, and pulled the trigger one after another.

Without making the slightest sound, the three arrows sank into the ceiling in an instant, as if they had pierced into pieces of tofu.

The next second, the entire castle began to shake violently.

"Armor protection!"

In order to avoid accidents, Rossi immediately put a layer of protective shields on the three of them.

At this moment, as the castle shook, the pillar in the center of the basement suddenly cracked vertically, and then quickly expanded into two halves, revealing the glass container hidden deep inside.

The glass container is engraved with magic words, and there are things that are constantly moving inside, just like the oily substance that was previously stuck on the doors and windows of the hall.

What the hell is this?!

Rosie suddenly had a lot of doubts in her heart. Although it looked a bit like a lying bat, it was also dark and gauze-like...

Wait! Isabella became like this before?

Seeing this, Fan on the side suddenly thought of something, took a breath and said: "Moran?!!!"

"Muran?"

Rossi seemed to have heard of this term, but couldn't remember it clearly, so he looked at Fan with surprise.

Seeing her confusion, Fan explained:

"The Obscurus is a magical creature spawned under certain conditions. It usually lives in the bodies of young wizards and is extremely destructive."

He paused and then continued: "But under normal circumstances, the Obscurus that is separated from its host will return to nature after a period of time."
