A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 334: The most painful punishment
Latest URL: Felix stared at the altar, such a large statue, right in front of his eyes, decayed in a very short time, broke into pieces, and then was blown into fine sand by the invisible wind, finally Nothing left.
Is it because of the breath I blew?
Definitely not, Felix thought to himself, this is too ridiculous, Haierbo's statue should be similar to those basilisk corpses I saw before, and it was also in a sealed state. I don't know how long it has passed, at least thousands of years. No, two thousand years, right?
He thought about it very seriously. The despicable Hai Erbo was active in ancient Greece, earlier than the four founders of Hogwarts, and when the Big Four rose, Hai Erbo had disappeared for hundreds of years.
For them, Haierbo is already a part of the legend - they only know that he is notorious, but they have never seen a real person. Even when they were young, they might have been frightened by their parents with Haierbo's evil reputation because they were disobedient.
Felix grinned, amused at the sudden thought. It is a fact that legends used to be children, but few people think of it like this. They are more inclined to think that legends are legends from the beginning.
Felix put aside this thought, became serious, and thought about the Horcrux issue very seriously.
Yes, Horcruxes. For him, the only attraction of horcruxes is the study of souls. Unfortunately, even though he has mastered the method of making horcruxes, he still knows very little about the realm of souls.
Not even scratching the surface.
He thought of that book, "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Dark Arts", which contained more magic than Horcruxes, but without a doubt, it was the most evil of them all. The reason for evil is not just the need to murder, but also to split the soul.
It is an act against nature to make a perfect soul incomplete, and it will definitely pay a very heavy price. This is clearly mentioned in the book. As for the price, the book did not say, Felix Si also had no way of knowing.
…
When Hermione first came in, she was taken aback. It turned out that there were not only the two basilisks blocking the door, but also a large nest inside. , not letting them touch him, and then came to the professor, just in time to hear the professor mention the Horcrux.
She was startled, did the professor discover the fourth Horcrux of the mysterious man? Thinking about it carefully, it was wrong, because a person's name was mentioned earlier - Haierbo, and she quickly realized the meaning of the name Haierbo.
Despicable Haierbo, a famous black wizard in ancient Greece, is one of the sources of many existing black magics. He invented many evil curses and black magics, the most famous of which is the Horcrux! Among other things, he is a Parseltongue and has discovered how basilisks hatch.
Could it be that they entered the place where Hai Erbo hid the Horcrux by mistake?
Just as he was about to ask, the professor sighed and blew, and then the solid statue in front of him fell apart and turned into fly ash, even when she walked over, even the ash disappeared, as if everything was her hallucinations.
"Professor?" Hermione tilted her head and looked at Felix, who had been silent since just now.
Felix looked at her and said calmly: "It's nothing, just a little emotional."
"You destroyed Hai Erbo's Horcrux?"
"Well, it has nothing to do with me, it was destroyed long ago, we just discovered this fact."
Hermione blinked and tried to analyze using her limited knowledge about Horcruxes. She first glanced at the others. The three of Keremi had just entered, and they were smacking their tongues at the corpse of the basilisk standing in front of them. Gonuk... She couldn't see it, maybe it was blocked by the basilisk.
So she asked in a low voice: "Professor, if the Horcrux is destroyed, what about Haierbo's main soul?"
Felix rolled his eyes. This is an interesting question. The function of the Horcrux is to split the soul and hide part of it in an object outside the body. In this way, even if the body is attacked or destroyed, it will not die, because there is still a part of the soul left unharmed.
But this is aimed at the situation where the wizard died unexpectedly and the Horcrux still survived. What if both of them had accidents?
Is there a possibility that Hai Erbo invented the method of making Horcruxes and successfully made the first Horcruxes, but before he had time to study how to restore his body, he died in an accident, or Simply die of old age...
This kind of speculation is not impossible. The reason why Hai Erbo is admired or hated by the latecomers is because he invented a lot of black magic creatively. Is it possible? Before him, no one has studied why The way for the undead to restore their bodies?
Felix followed this guess. Because of the existence of the horcrux, Haierbo's main soul was immortal and wandered all the time, but he couldn't find a good way to resurrect him. Decaying in the time, what will be waiting for Hai Erbo?
Will he simply perish, or continue to wander somewhere in this world, worse than the humblest wandering spirit?
"I don't know," Felix replied to Hermione's question, "maybe it would be better to die."
Hermione couldn't understand for a while, and wanted to continue to ask, but she quickly realized the key point. Losing the Horcrux and leaving the main soul empty, there are only three possibilities, either dissipate, or linger like Voldemort, or successfully revive.
The first two are unknown, but the third possibility is extremely slim, because people in later generations have never found traces of his activities—this is actually very inappropriate. If Haierbo is resurrected with the help of a horcrux, he has no reason to hide stand up.
As for the remaining two possibilities, according to the professor's answer, 'maybe it would be better to die', this refers to the ending of the main soul dissipating, but if not... just like Voldemort, wandering in the world thousands of times Year?
She suddenly shuddered, the most painful punishment in the world is nothing more than this, right?
"Little girl, get out of the way."
A voice said, and Hermione trembled in fright. She jumped aside and found that the goblin Gnuck was looking at the relief on the side wall of the altar. She lowered her head and saw that the goblin was holding a The silver knife is trying to pry the gems on the relief.
Gonuk successfully got a ruby, he let out a sigh of relief, wiped it with his sleeve, and said greedily: "An ancient gem, I can smell the rich history, it is more precious than any of my collections , that is the weight of time!"
Hermione blinked, she felt that this sentence should be just a rhetorical device, similar to what Trelawney and Refining said, but she still asked curiously: "What did you see, Mr. Gonuk? Can I take a look?"
"No! Everything here is mine, no, Gringotts," he said gravely.
Felix smiled, "Miss Granger, if you like something, you can pick one or two as souvenirs."
The goblin looked at him viciously, but Felix took out an invitation letter from Gringotts and waved it at him. He instantly became sluggish like a deflated ball.
"What's wrong?" Hermione asked puzzled.
Cremy came over and said with a smile: "Professor Haipu is an expert invited by Gringotts, so he will be paid. Gnuck realized this, so..." She made a gesture to Hermione Heartbroken, Hermione giggled.
However, Hermione was just curious and didn't have the idea of appropriating it for herself. She had no interest in gems, so she went around and looked at the patterns on the altar—there were wizards on it, or gemstones, or majestic and dignified ones. Sitting, or writing at a desk, beside these wizards, there are always all kinds of gadgets, such as gems, magic wands, vials, and hourglasses.
She wanted to take a closer look, but the goblin followed her wherever she went, and finally got bored, so she ran to the corridor and the professor to read the rune left on the slate.
Felix is recording the ancient magic on it, and Hermione is more interested in the stories told on the slate, but after knowing that the owner of the darkroom is Hai Erbo, she naturally understands that all this is false, it is Haier Waves is an elaborate deception.
But why did he do that?
Hermione tried to understand Haierbo's intentions. She had read many ancient wizards' magic handbooks from Felix, and she was not unfamiliar with their mentality, but Haierbo's actions made her extremely puzzled.
Thinking for a long time, she has two directions, one is that Hai Erbo hopes to lure the clever wizards, trick them into the dark room, and use the internal magic to achieve ulterior secrets, such as holding a resurrection ceremony, but unfortunately, He waited for thousands of years in vain.
The other direction is the cover-up method reserved by Haierbo. He never thought that people could leave alive after knowing this place. And all the previous arrangements are for this purpose——
Put the hiding place of the Horcrux under the pyramid, and use the pharaoh's tomb to cover up the secret of the Horcrux, making it difficult for outsiders to find it. This is the first layer of protection.
The black mist and curses in the corridor are the second layer of protection. If the wizard who strays into this place is a little weaker, he will probably die in the black mist for no reason and be digested by the black mist. You know, Mr. Fairy said that black mist is corrosive!
Even if a wizard successfully breaks through the black mist, there is still a third layer of protection, which is the temptation of ancient magic on the stone slab. He will think that he has broken into the heritage of a strict predecessor, not only will he not disclose the news to the outside world , but will try to break the invisible curse alone again and again.
Even if he successfully passes through these levels, what awaits him in the end are a dozen basilisks. According to Hermione's guess, no matter how powerful a wizard is, he can't resist the attacks of more than a dozen basilisks at the same time, right?
"If this is the case, then Hai Erbo is too scary, and he deserves to be called a despicable Hai Erbo." Hermione muttered softly.
"What?" Felix asked.
"No." Hermione immediately shook her head, followed the professor's gaze, and looked at the rune sequence above.
Felix said gently: "I don't have time to guide you, but you can try to learn it. Do you understand what I mean? It's just the core runes. Let's see which one you are most interested in." It feels like maybe it is your second ancient magic."
Hermione nodded, excitedly trying one by one. The first ancient magic, she doesn't know the core rune, give up...
The second one means 'distortion'. She tried to outline the core rune and the sub-core rune. The air in her hand seemed to twist, but she tried several times, but still failed.
She kept moving her position until the penultimate one, Hermione's eyes lit up. Core runes—flame, sub-core runes, all of them! She also understands most of the remaining peripheral runes.
This is it. She had a strong premonition in her heart.
Hermione carefully outlines the runes in the air, and has the experience of learning lighting techniques. She knows the most basic operation process of ancient magic—the core runes are like magic symbols, and the sub-core runes determine the external characteristics and characteristics of magic. Attributes, peripheral runes are constructed and perfected to form a complete magic.
Hermione first outlined the flame runes, letting it switch between rune symbols and flames, then restored to ancient runes, and continued to outline the sub-core runes.
After a while, Hermione wiped her sweat and stopped. Covering a yawn with his hands, he decided to take a break.
Felix has finished recording the rune sequence on the slate, and the docile black lightning flashed between his fingers, but this image only passed in a flash. He put away his magic and said to Hermione with satisfaction: "Let's go out , they are already waiting outside."
They walked out of the pyramid and returned to the tent camp. The goblin was so tired that he slumped in his chair and kept complaining that his knife was cracked, but no one sympathized with him, "Because you won't let us help." Keremy While talking, he prepared a small glass of ice water for himself.
She took a big gulp of water for herself, frowned, then opened it up a little bit, and let out a long breath.
Others are also very relaxed, and they are lucky enough to come out of such a dangerous place. Faisal and Rahman immediately decided to ask for leave to watch the Quidditch World Cup.
Felix was also a little tired. He took off the basilisk skin cloak, took out a silver pocket watch, flicked off the cover, and a Nixiu came out, stood in his palm, and looked at Felix. Stein kept yelling, counting his crimes, and then turned his **** on him.
"It's my fault," Felix said with a smile, feeling better all of a sudden. He took out a gold Galleon, touched and sniffed Varun's shoulder lightly, it seemed to smell charming ~IndoMTL.com~ Turning his head a little bit, he caught a glimpse of the golden light from the corner of his eye, and was immediately overwhelmed by lightning Er Zhishi snatched Jin Gallon, stuffed it into his pocket, and patted Felix's finger with satisfaction.
Hermione stared at the little guy with wide eyes, "Professor, is this a sniff?"
"Well, I raised her, you can call her Valen." Felix said, touching its pink beak with his fingers, sniffing and ignoring it, looking left and right, poking his head.
Hermione took out the small locket that can control the temperature, shook it in front of its eyes, sniffed Varun, looked around, then immediately ran along the table and threw herself into Hermione's arms, stretched out her short hand to reach the small locket.
When Nixiu appeared, the goblin Gonuk immediately widened his eyes, covered his pocket next to him, and shouted in horror: "Take that little devil away, take it away!"
His scream caught Niffle's attention, and it poked its head out of Hermione's arms, staring at Goblin Gnuck with its small bright black eyes.
