Chapter 111 A Certain Magical Index
Levin got the signature and immediately headed to the library.
Of course he didn't want to learn about werewolves,
Werewolf? What werewolf?
Which werewolf soul is more attractive?
The books in the restricted area, Levin has long wanted to read them,
He has even decided to take advantage of this semester to read as many books in the restricted area as possible.
But the most urgent thing at the moment is to find some research and discussion on the soul.
He owes Helena's ghost a crown.
Except for Professor Lockhart, I'm afraid no professor would sign a note without looking at it.
This also includes the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in the next few years.
Entering the dull and quiet library, Levin found Mrs. Pince.
"Gilderoy Lockhart?"
She glanced suspiciously and took the note from Levin's hand.
But she didn't let it go directly, but said earnestly: "Most of the books in the restricted area are not suitable for little wizards like you."
Faced with Mrs. Pince's dissuasion, Levin could only show a sincere smile, and at the same time silently turned on the [Charm Human] effect to the maximum: "This is actually because Professor Lockhart thinks that my performance is better than other little wizards in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Some, so he gave me a little extra help...trying to teach me some things outside of the textbook.”
Here, Levin plays a word game,
At the same time, she secretly prayed that Mrs. Pince was also a fan of Professor Gilderoy Rohart.
After listening to his words, Mrs. Pince looked at the signature in her hand again.
Although he didn't show any expression on the surface, Levin's psychic ability could detect that there was a feeling of joy in the other person's heart.
Good guy, you can hide it deep enough.
Sure enough, Professor Lockhart is a friend of middle-aged and elderly women.
Mrs. Pince opened the bars of the restricted book area with a click.
Levin walked in and saw a dozen low bookshelves in front of him.
Compared with those bookshelves outside that are built from floor to ceiling and are six or seven meters high,
The bookshelves in the restricted book area are only over two meters high, which is really not worth mentioning.
But in terms of the preciousness of books, the gap between the two sides is obvious.
None of the books in the restricted book area are simple.
Levin could see that many books on the bookshelf were not simply placed, but were physically bound and sealed with chains and hemp ropes.
There are also books that just have a seal on the outside, but when you get closer, you can tell that the seal is engraved with ancient magic texts.
Of course, not every book in the Restricted Book Zone is dangerous enough to need to be sealed.
But if you use [Detect Magic] to look at it, you will find that almost every book here is exuding the light of magic.
This is why most real magic books are unique.
Some knowledge itself contains power,
The most extreme of them, such as the books of the Old Ones, will pollute the spirit as long as they are read, and the viewer will either fall into madness or become a monster.
For this kind of book, copying techniques and scholar's touch cannot take effect, so you can only read it by yourself.
Levin walked back and forth between the bookshelves, looking at the title of each book to see if it was what he needed.
"Powerful Potion", "Book of Spells", "Fatal Curse", "True Interpretation of the Jade Record", "Great Grimmore", "Secret Garden Rose"
Sure enough, the books here are more dangerous than the last.
For example, in the book "The Great Grimmaul", Levin could feel the terrifying power contained in it. Just by simply opening it, it could swallow up a person's life force.
In comparison, books like "Powerful Potion" and "True Explanation of Jade Jade Record" that don't even have magic power are just a breath of fresh air.
The reason why this kind of book is also locked in the forbidden book area is because some of the magic potion formulas and alchemy formulas recorded in it are very dangerous.
Whether it is manufacturing or using, accidents are very easy to occur, but the book itself has no power of chaos.
When encountering this kind of book, Levin would take it out, directly use [Scholar's Touch], and collect it later.
Levin wandered among the bookshelves for about ten minutes, and when Mrs. Pince was almost impatient, he found the book he needed:
"The Book of Seth"
It is said that the author of this book is a spirit named "Seth" "It has completed reincarnation and lives in the formless world. It has no physical body but can conjure the desired environment at will.
Regardless of whether the subsequent boast is true or not, Levin can indeed feel the powerful spiritual energy in this book.
Then based on the principle that "the content of the magic book is related to the power contained in the magic book", I chose it.
In fact, if you want to deal with Horcruxes, the most direct way is to read the magic book called "The Secret of Advanced Black Magic".
It was from this book that Tom Riddle found out about making Horcruxes.
Unfortunately, after Dumbledore became the headmaster, he immediately transferred "Advanced Dark Arts Revealed" and a batch of books he considered dangerous to the headmaster's office.
Levin was quite dissatisfied with this kind of thing. Even Dumbledore had no right to decide what books wizards could and could not access.
But now that the situation is stronger than human beings, he can only look for research related to the soul.
So, Levin found Mrs. Pince with this large, thick book with a brown cover under his arm.
Mrs. Pince looked at the "Book of Seth" for a while and handed it to Levin again. During this period, she couldn't help but remind:
"Be careful, Mr. Green. This book is very strange. Anyone who has read it can't remember what they saw... If you ask me, this is not suitable for your students."
"Ah, thank you for reminding Mrs. Pince, I will be more careful." Levin said a few words, took the books, and quickly left the library.
He couldn't wait to read it.
But Levin did not choose to return to the dormitory or stay in the library. Instead, he found a deserted corner and directly used the "Mansion Technique".
The next moment, he appeared in the demiplane.
For Levin, there is no safer place than here.
Levin went to the basement of the tower and brought a rocking chair to the laboratory.
Because it is a laboratory, the defense level of the surrounding walls, floors, and ceilings is much higher than that of the rooms upstairs.
Moreover, defensive spells were cast,
Just to prevent possible accidents.
Levin brought the "Book of Seth" to his eyes, and upon closer inspection, he noticed that there seemed to be something swimming on the cover of the book, as if a wandering spirit had come from somewhere.
He ignored the strange cover and opened it directly.
In an instant, a burst of shrill, blood-curdling screams pierced the peace and quiet, and this power seemed to hit the soul directly!
It’s [Banshee’s Wail]!
"[Mental Barrier]!"
Levin immediately sensed something was wrong, and immediately gathered his spiritual energy into a barrier to block damage to 443's soul.
But this is only treating the symptoms, not the root cause. This banshee howl cannot be allowed to continue, it must be stopped.
"[Silence Technique]!"
This book felt like someone was strangling its throat, and the shrill voice suddenly stopped, not even a buzzing sound could be made.
Now, I can finally read this book.
Levin gently opened the page of the book again. With the blessing of [Silence], [Banshee's Wail] was no longer enough evidence. He could read the contents of the book.
Levin found that the book did not describe any soul at the beginning, but provided a mysterious and mysterious explanation about God, the world, time and other mysterious things, which seemed worthless at first glance.
The other parts of the book are also filled with fanatical delusions about the devil, hell, and heaven, as if they were the craziest ravings of a religious maniac + psychotic patient, and are not at all like the writings of a wizard.
But after reading it carefully, I discovered that the author’s exploration of the soul is in it.
The so-called heaven, hell, gods, and devils are just the author’s concrete representations of good and evil thoughts in the soul.
Maybe the author of this book really went crazy in the process of exploring the power of the soul,
But he did subconsciously record some truly essential knowledge.
The premise is that readers can see through the metaphors.
The above books, including this Seth book, are either original works or have real-life prototypes.
They are all classic occult texts.

It’s not easy to get a new book on the shelves. I’d like to ask for a wave of custom orders, flowers, monthly votes, reviews, and rewards. If you have votes, please give them to me as the author. This is really important to me!
