HP Approaches the Magic World

Chapter 323 Secret Language

When the voice of the sacrifice rang in his ears, it was like an illusion, and it left even faster, like a dandelion that was blown away by the wind in the blink of an eye.

What is this weird thing saying to him?

Of course Jon couldn't understand it, nor did he want to understand it.

The weird sound disappeared after it rang in his ears once. No matter how Jon fiddled with his fingers, it never appeared again - only the gloves on his hands showed some changes.

With the movement, the ash-like thing on the gloves peeled off from the surface, and then exposed the inside.

It's like something made of old has lost its disguise, revealing its smooth essence beneath the surface.

It was as if it had grown on Jon's hand.

"It seems that this is what these gloves really look like," Professor Sprout asked softly, "What did you do?"

"I don't know either," Jon tried to take off the gloves from his hands, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull the gloves off. It was as if the gloves were originally on his hands, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull them off.

No matter how hard he applied, the gloves not only did not leave his hands, but even deprived him of his sense of touch.

Because he could clearly feel the presence of his hand, but he couldn't feel the pulling sensation between the glove and his hand.

"What's wrong?"

Professor Sprout came over to check it out together, but the witch obviously paid more attention to it than Jon.

"Don't move yet, let me see what this is?"

Jon stopped pulling on the glove and let Professor Sprout pull his hand away.

Following Professor Sprout's line of sight, he discovered that there were two lines of text embroidered on the wrist of the glove. However, because the glove had been left for too long, the original gold thread embroidery had begun to darken.

When it comes to words, Professor Sprout's face becomes more serious.

She reached out and without reciting a spell, she used the Flying Charm to pull down an ancient Egyptian research book from the bookshelf, and began to search for the corresponding content according to the text pattern embroidered on the gloves on Jon's hand.

Jon didn't dare to move at first. Professor Sprout's cautious approach made him feel a little panicked, even though he didn't think it was a big deal.

After all, except for the fact that the gloves can't be taken off, aren't everything else still fine?

Moreover, the glove completely fit his hand and did not continue to tighten or cause any impact on his body.

"I'm not suggesting you continue to be optimistic, Jon, look at this."

Professor Sprout spread the book in her hand, and Jon looked in the direction of the professor's fingers. It happened to be the translated version of the text embroidered on the gloves he was wearing.

"Spring comes back to the earth, spurred by death."

He looked up like Professor Sprout and asked, "What does this mean?"

"This is a chapter praising the ancient Egyptian god Osiris. In the ancient Egyptian mythology, Osiris's brother Set coveted his brother's throne, so he killed him.

According to historical records, Osiris is the god of fertility and rebirth.

In mythology, he appears as a tightly wrapped mummy, holding a staff in one hand and a whip in the other.

The scepter can grant growth to all things, and the whip can drive away death. His reign is described as an era of prosperity.

At that time, Osiris was revered among the gods. With his sister Nephthys, he gave birth to Anubis, the god of death, and with another sister, the goddess of magic Isis, the ancient Greek king of the end.

Horus.

These are the two more famous children among his children, Horus avenged him, and Anubis dedicated his death throne to him."

When talking about her professional field, Professor Sprout started to talk endlessly, and the same was true when she was teaching students, so Jon had long been accustomed to her state.

"Generally speaking, the unified legend of this myth in ancient Egypt is that after Set killed Osiris, he divided his body into fourteen pieces and threw it along the Nile River in different places in Egypt.

Isis immediately went to find the body of Osiris. Some legends say that she held funerals in every place where the stones were found. As the goddess of magic, she had many followers to help her, as well as build tombs for her husband.

Bury the body parts while hiding the location of the true core tomb."

Professor Sprout hesitated to speak. He paused for a while before continuing: "The box you got should be the corpse box, that is, the coffin, that was used to bury Osiris's hands."

There is nothing strange about Jon. After all, when it comes to mythology, it is difficult not to involve things like the tombs of the gods. Relics are just relics. Otherwise, how could they be called relics?

While Professor Sprout was describing, he was not idle, but briefly read the book.

According to the description of this book, the words on his gloves come from the Book of the Dead in ancient Egyptian mythology. In the legend, in order to hide the true core of the god, Isis used spices and beeswax to symbolize Osiris.

Based on each of the body parts, a complete prosthesis of Osiris was created, and then handed over to her believers to carry out daily sacrificial activities and build tombs.

"So obviously the box you got contains a prosthesis made of Osiris's hands, but without the power of the real god, it is difficult for the prosthesis to continue to resist the erosion of time, even the gods

The body itself cannot resist the erosion of time, and will gradually return to the environment as time passes. This pair of gloves should be something Osiris wore on his hands to fuse with his mummy appearance. Maybe it has some magical abilities.

, but it cannot be regarded as an artifact. It can only be said that it has been immersed in the power of the gods for a long time and derived some special powers. It should be a very useful thing for you now."

"But, I have no way of knowing how to use it."

Jon showed a sad face. This kind of thing could indeed play a big role in front of him, but the problem was that he didn't know how to use it, which gave him a huge headache.

How painful it is to have a treasure mountain in vain but not be able to move it.

"The solution lies in the gloves."

Professor Sprout pointed to the words on the gloves and smiled slightly: "This is the driving secret language of the gloves."
