Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 612 The Book of Darkness (Second Update)

Three days before the cooldown period for entering the small world ends, at the S.H.I.E.L.D. base canteen.

Hermione was telling Jerry about a special mission she had carried out yesterday with Skye's Inhumans team.

"Jerry, I didn't know ghosts existed in your world. Luckily, I recently mastered the Guardian Charm, but it's a pity they still managed to escape in the end."

"ghost?"

Jerry's heart skipped a beat.

During this time, Hermione was busy with various missions for S.H.I.E.L.D., and Jerry would only come to see her when she returned from her missions.

Hermione would always tell Jerry about her mission.

After resolving the Hive issue, SHIELD was also facing a major headache with the thousands of awakened Inhumans.

However, Coulson was more sentimental than Nick Fury before him. He did not imprison these Inhumans, but simply registered their abilities and released them.

Of course, it's impossible to have no defensive measures at all. Every Inhuman who is released will be required to wear a tracking bracelet. If they use their abilities to commit crimes, S.H.I.E.L.D. will arrest and convict them immediately.

Most people with superpowers are quite normal. After returning home, they continue to live their lives as usual, and even when using their superpowers, they do not harm others.

However, there are always some people who, after being transformed into superhumans, feel superior to normal people because of their superpowers, and thus use their abilities to steal, rob, or even kill.

Hermione's main task is to help Skye and others deal with these Inhumans.

A small number of missions involve dealing with terrorist organizations that want to destroy the world, and some bizarre monsters created by mad scientists.

Like yesterday's mission, according to the investigation, it turned out that a few mad scientists were conducting some kind of experiment and ended up turning themselves into ghosts.

The scientists, after turning into ghosts, went on to attack ordinary people.

Neither the ordinary agents sent in the early stages nor Skye and other Inhumans could harm these ghosts.

In the end, Hermione used the Patronus Charm to block the attacks of several ghosts, and finally used the modified Fiendfyre Charm that Jerry taught her to burn one of the ghosts to death before scaring away the last few.

"Are they those scientists who obtained the Dark Tome?"

As Hermione recounted the details of yesterday's mission, Jerry got a general idea of ​​what was going on.

The Dark Book, also known as the Book of the Dead, the Book of Sin, and the Scroll of Cithorn, is a super magic book created by Cithorn, one of the earliest ancient gods on Earth, when he was fleeing from the pursuit of the God Eaters.

It contains all the laws of the universe that Sithon comprehended. Whether you are a mage, a scientist, or even an artificial intelligence, you can find the knowledge you want in this book.

However, he also has a major flaw: once he opens the Dark Book and reads its knowledge, he will be influenced by Sithon, causing his personality to change drastically and even be controlled by it.

This is also why Jerry didn't rush to find the Dark Book after learning about it.

Because he wasn't confident he could contend with the so-called god of dark magic, Sithon, and feared that after reading the Dark Book, he would be mentally controlled by Sithon.

He couldn't take the Dark Book to other small worlds to view it, because the Dark Book was able to acquire endless knowledge precisely because it was connected to Xisorn's spiritual world.

Once the Dark Book is taken to the smaller world, the connection will naturally be severed, and it will eventually become nothing more than a blank white book without any text, at most a bit more sturdy.

But now, his strength is much greater than before, he has comprehended more laws, and his ring world is also being perfected.

Although his overall strength may be much weaker than that of Sithon, he might still be able to resist Sithon's mental invasion.

If you want to be on the safe side, you can wait until you have a good grasp of the laws of the Harry Potter world before opening the Dark Book. After all, Sithon is a powerful being among the dimensional demons.

According to the information he learned from the Ancient One, both Mephisto, the Lord of Hell, and Dormammu, the Lord of Darkness, borrowed the dark magic power of Sithon before becoming dimensional lords.

Therefore, it should not be underestimated.

"Hermione, Fitz has found a lead on the ghosts. They've appeared at a hospital in Los Angeles. We have to go there right away."

Just as Jerry and Hermione were halfway through their meal, Skye, wearing a S.H.I.E.L.D. combat suit, quickly ran over.

"Okay, Skye!"

Hermione put down her fork, swiped the bracelet Jerry had given her, and her dress instantly transformed into a black bodysuit just like Skye's.

At this moment, Jerry also stood up.

"You don't need to go. Leave this to me!"

Hermione and Skye were taken aback. Jerry hadn't been helping them at all during this time, let alone directly helping them complete their mission.

Today's situation is clearly abnormal.

Jerry smiled and explained:

"I roughly know what it was that turned those scientists into ghosts. If it really is that kind of thing, it's quite dangerous for you. It's safer for me to handle it."

Jerry is not afraid of ordinary missions, and with the strength of Hermione and Skye, they will basically be fine.

Moreover, he upgraded the necklace around Hermione's neck that he had given her, the one engraved with Merlin's Ring. If it were truly dangerous, that necklace could release an extremely strong protective shield to safeguard Hermione's safety.

Moreover, he can sense it immediately and go to help.

But this time is different. If Hermione and the others manage to deal with the ghosts and obtain the Dark Book, and accidentally open it, then even he might not be able to stop Sithon's mental invasion.

Therefore, he felt it was best to go and resolve the matter himself, which would also allow him to obtain the Dark God Book first.

Although the Dark Book was just a copy that Sithon had placed on Earth, the effect was actually the same: both could connect to Sithon's mental world and steal his knowledge.

If handled well, he might be able to absorb a large amount of knowledge in an instant, thereby perfecting the laws of the ring world to more than 50%, and then greatly increasing his strength.

"Of course, no problem!"

Skye thought for a moment, and finally nodded.

Since Jerry said there was danger, then there must be danger. Besides, apart from Hermione's magic being effective, those ghosts really can't help much. It's better to just leave it to Jerry to handle.

Skye gave Jerry the hospital's detailed address, and watching him disappear on the spot, she said to Hermione:

"No missions this afternoon, let's continue practicing our fighting techniques!"

"Good idea."

Hermione's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Using magic to attack others inside Hogwarts Castle will result in points being deducted. Once she masters martial arts, she can teach those little bastards from Jerry's fan club a lesson the next time she encounters them.
