Chapter 740: A Way to Break the Curse

The story itself has a lot of doubts and does not stand up to scrutiny, not to mention what kind of hatred and jealousy a foreign witch has to poison everyone to death, and to what extent this psychology must be twisted at the cost of her own life. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

But purely in terms of the event itself, it is indeed possible that the witch from Africa has this power.

Africa is the full name of the region of Africa, where the magical civilization is completely different from that of the European continent.

More mysterious, but also more eerie, astrology, poisons, dark magic, and curses are the most common spells.

Different tribes worship different gods, and most of these gods are primitive, some are powerful magical animals, and some are simply demons.

They gain power from their long-term offerings and bestow special magic on them.

A demon in the shape of an owl man, or something older and more evil......

Using its powers, it is indeed able to imprison the souls of all people in the owl fortress outside the city.

Truth be told, if that's what the curse is about, it's a bit scary, but that's about it.

A curse of five hundred years ago, it is difficult to say how much power is left.

And with the strength of the owl man, Evan was very suspicious that he would be able to kill everyone in the vicinity, and this difficult task would be too difficult for it.

In addition to its terrifying appearance, it has strong magic resistance, and its real strength is very average.

Two well-trained Aurors can clean it up, of course, only if they find each other's hiding place.

"All the wizards who came to our wedding that day died, and their souls became owls, wandering around the castle and never to rest. After this incident, the magical power in the territory was greatly damaged, which also led to the defeat of the Duke of Burgundy on the battlefield, this is a conspiracy, I have seen my country decline since then, I want revenge, I want her to die, I want her soul to disappear from this world completely, I want her to pay for what happened back then. ”

It does happen, known in Muggle history as the Burgundy Cleft, and the most powerful lords of France have since retired from history.

Evan and Sirius glanced at each other, the woman was crazy, and all that was left in her head was hatred......

"How did you survive now that everyone had turned into owls?" Sirius asked.

"There is a treasure in my family called the Mirror of Truth, and my soul is protected by it, and the demon cannot harm me. Ariana said slowly, suddenly moving forward quickly, her whole face pressed against the mirror, looking very strange, "It has returned, and the old soul is restless again, you must stop it, or it will kill everyone." ”

"If it's the curse power, the two of us may not be able to do anything......"

"No, I have a way, as long as you find that demon, I have a way to kill it!" Ariana stepped back and said grimly, "It's hidden in the souls of those damn owls in the castle, and I haven't been able to find it for hundreds of years......"

"What do you want us to do?"

"I need your blood!" she said in a voice of longing for her, looking at Evan and reaching out to him in the mirror, her long nails a terrible dark red, "It took me centuries to learn that only the purest blood can break that demon's curse, and with the help of my descendants, I have prepared all the materials, the blood of a unicorn, the blood of a phoenix, the blood of a white lion...... That's all I need, and I need the blood of an untrained boy. ”

"If it's just boy's blood, I guess it's easy to obtain?" Evan frowned, looking at the woman uneasily.

The blood of boys was indeed needed in those ancient, evil magics, but now it is basically extinct!

He had the impression that since this magic was used on this thing, it was decided that it wouldn't be a decent spell.

Like the magic used in Voldemort's resurrection, the blood of the enemy must be used as an introduction, which is itself black magic.

"This is an ancient magic, it must be the blood of a male wizard under the age of fifteen, voluntarily sacrificed, his own magic must be strong enough, stronger than the power of the demon who cast the curse, to be able to break her spell, I can feel it, you meet my request......" Ariana gasped, as if something was about to run out of her, her eyes widened hard, "Whew, Phew, go downstairs to the head of the eighth house-elf from the left, find the materials I have prepared, and then go to the dungeon of the owl fortress, where you will find an altar, which is the source of the curse's power, sprinkle the blood on it, and the curse will be broken. Hurry up, the power of the curse has increased again, and if you don't get rid of it, you will all die, you will all die, ah!"

With a bang, the mirror suddenly cracked in the middle, and Ariana vanished, leaving only a deep crack on it.

Her mournful screams echoed through the room. Evan and Sirius stood silently in front of the mirror, their walls splattered with dark brown blood in the shimmer of the wand's end.

Maybe it's because of the wind, this terrible room is so cold and uncomfortable that even the hairs all over the body stand upside down.

"I don't like this woman, it's like a madman!" Sirius said, taking a deep breath, "it's more complicated than I thought, we'd better go back to sleep and get out of here tomorrow morning at dawn." ”

"It's not that simple, we're afraid we're being targeted by something, the other party won't let us go so easily, just go back and pay it back, something won't necessarily happen tonight, no matter what kind of ghost this guy is, I think it's better to solve it in one go." Evan shook his head and continued, "Remember what she said to us when she first appeared? It's weird that it thinks I'm a student of Beauxbatons, isn't it?"

Indeed, Evan was wearing only a normal wizard's robe, which was still Hogwarts, but without the school crest.

If you look at the clothes alone, you should guess that they are from Hogwarts, unless you ......

"You mean, it saw us get out of the wagon, so it thinks we're Beauxbatons?"

"It should be, but it may not be itself, it can only appear in this magical mirror!" "Evan examined the broken mirror in front of him, as well as the crooked magic runes on it, "I think this woman may have something to do with the owl man I saw, and it's not as simple as it says." ”
