Chapter 653: Another Half of the Resurrection Stone
"The power of reincarnation, Master and I have been studying it for so many years, but she has mastered it so easily. Lady Luck is really biased." Karen said with great envy.
"Is this the kind of power you want me to assist in your research?" Sherlock asked.
"That's right, but compared to the Three Hallows of Death, the power she possesses is far inferior in both quality and quantity." Karen explained.
"Then what do you need me to do?"
"First help me find the other half of the Resurrection Stone hidden in the academy. I need a whole Resurrection Stone to be resurrected."
"The other half of the Resurrection Stone is in the academy?" Sherlock asked in surprise.
"Otherwise, why do you think I appeared near the distant countryside?"
"I thought you came here specifically to ask me for help."
"Do you have any misunderstanding about your own strength?" Karen couldn't help but mocked: "Or do you think the people in the Dark Temple are all rookie adventurers like you."
"Well, it's okay for me to be too sentimental."
After understanding Karen's purpose, Sherlock did not waste time, but re-entered the Room of Requirement and began to improve his proficiency in refining alchemy.
With the experience last time, this time he did not squander the medicinal materials wantonly, but seriously practiced his skills by referring to the refining notes given by Firenze and Snape.
In this way, the proficiency level increases a little slower, but the consumption of mental energy is also much lower. At the same time, one's own level of refining medicine can also be improved.
Three days passed quickly by refining medicine, going to class, and playing mage chess with Zoe.
On Friday afternoon, after taking Hagrid's "Alien Creatures" class, Sherlock finally got the other party's approval with his excellent grades and his dark cooking skills, and gathered the guarantees of three professors.
"Severus, Gilderoy, Hagrid" Loris looked at the three signed letters, but hesitated to open the door to the treasure house.
Sherlock understood immediately and took out a large bag of dried fish from the eulogist: "Mrs. Lorris, this is a little bit of my heart."
"Meow!"
As soon as Loris smelled this smell, the whole cat became excited, and he opened the door with a wave of his hand: "Take whatever you like."
"Thank you, Mrs. Lorris." Sherlock turned and walked in.
The area of the academy's treasure house is actually not large. There are only five shelves in total, which store different props.
There are densely packed small drawers on the shelves, and each drawer has been cast a traceless expansion spell, so that even large things can be stored in them.
The tiara of wisdom that Sherlock wants to borrow is a valuable item and has a dedicated display cabinet for storage.
There are not many things on the display cabinet. In addition to the four semi-artifacts of the academy, there is also a piece of colorful dragon crystal, a bottle of potion called 'Mystra's Favor', a scroll of forbidden spells, and a handful of bronze
Key, a humanoid golem, and a sheepskin map.
"Sherlock, pick up the pendant and look at it." Karen suddenly said.
"What happened to Slytherin's pendant of honor?"
"Don't you think its capabilities are familiar?"
Slytherin's Pendant of Glory (semi-artifact, necklace)
Charm 5
Allies within 200 yards around the wearer gain the power of glory (strength 2, constitution 2, agility 2)
Enemies within 200 yards around the wearer will receive a death curse (they will be randomly transformed into ghouls, demons, ghosts, mummies or demon corpses after death)
Slytherin's Pendant of Glory has two group buffs plus a group resurrection. The benefit effect on a team is extremely obvious, and the larger the battle, the more its value will be reflected.
This ability is indeed somewhat familiar.
Sherlock thought for a moment and then thought of a possibility: "Isn't this the other half of the Resurrection Stone?"
"It shouldn't be wrong, but I didn't expect it to be made into a pendant." Karen said.
Although this result is a bit surprising, it is also reasonable.
Since a treasure of this level like the Resurrection Stone can be confirmed to be in the academy, the probability of it appearing in the treasure house is indeed the highest.
It's easy to find, but it's a little difficult to take it away.
Even if you sell him for 15,000 credits, you may not be able to get them in exchange.
"How about we take the things and run away?" Karen encouraged.
"If you can beat that tabby cat outside, I will listen to you."
"You are not an adventurer, and you are not afraid of death." Even in his heyday, Karen was not sure that he could defeat the element-devouring beast, let alone now.
"If we steal something and are killed, it will surely fall."
"I don't care, you promised to help me complete the research anyway."
"puff!"
"why are you laughing?"
"No, it's just that you have always been so cold and cold, and suddenly you acted like a little girl."
"Sherlock, do you think I can't scratch you now that I'm a soul?" Karen suddenly said coldly.
Why don't you scratch it for me?
Well, Sherlock didn't want to die yet: "Just kidding, let's figure out how to get this necklace."
"Didn't the cat outside say that winning the Triwizard Tournament would be enough?"
"Wow, it's so easy!" Sherlock almost rolled his eyes at the other party.
"I warn you not to be sarcastic or sarcastic about me."
"Sorry, seeing how easy you said it was, I thought it was easy to win the Triwizard Tournament."
"It's very simple in the first place, just some level 50 mages. You have two such powerful natural partners, Star Feather Dragon Bird and Huayedi. It would be really embarrassing if you lose again."
Just a level 50 mage?
Sherlock had already seen several well-known mages on the combat power ranking list, and he was really not sure about competing with those monsters to test their magic skills.
"Anyway, I will stay here for a while. Let's think about it slowly when we go back."
"Just don't forget." Karen has been coming here for so many years, so it's only a short while ago.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to do what I promised!"
After making his promise, Sherlock picked up the glory pendant and walked out of the academy's treasure house. Loris, who was guarding the door, just looked at it and made sure he didn't take out anything extra before letting him leave.
After that, as long as he doesn't leave the academy, he can use this semi-artifact at will.
The price is 10 points of rent per day and some special dried fish.
10 points of credits per day is actually a lot, but for a top student like Sherlock, it's still acceptable.
As for the special dried fish, except for the rare catmint used for incense, the dried fish itself is not actually worth much.
Overall, he made a profit!
After borrowing the Crown of Wisdom, it was already dinner time, and Sherlock hurried to the auditorium.
Today, besides dinner, there is another important thing to be announced in the auditorium.
That is the list of players for the Triwizard Tournament, and lots will be drawn later to determine the schedule for the first round of the individual round-robin challenge.
