Crypt is a chamber usually underground or in a mausoleum.

Cryptic is something that is hidden or obscure

Cryptology is the scientific study of cryptography (secret writing) and cryptanalysis (solving cryptograms).

Crypt does not mean code. They derived crypt from "crypta" which means "vault". Cryptic comes from the Greek "kryptein" which means "to hide". Crypt and cryptic are related words in English, along with "krypton" and "apocrypha".
