Chapter 178: Old Grievances at Hogwarts (19)
In December, the temperature begins to drop sharply, and if you are willing to get up from the warm quilt in the morning and walk out of the castle to resist the cold wind, you can see that the ground outside has formed a layer of frost, white and misty, at this time the ground seems to be cast of iron, hard, for some perennial wet muddy roads are a lot easier to walk. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Phyllis raised her head, the sky was gray, the whole sky was tightly obscured by clouds, as if it was going to snow, she tightened her cloak, and walked towards the Forbidden Forest. It's Saturday, she doesn't have classes, and she needs to go to the Forbidden Forest to do some things during the two free days of the weekend.
Phyllis, who frequented the Forbidden Forest, was already familiar with the area, and she skillfully navigated the dense primeval forest, but despite this, her destination was too far away, and she came out early in the morning, and she arrived almost at noon.
It is a small valley with a hidden entrance and a cave. This place was recently discovered by Phyllis, and she had carefully examined it, and there were no signs of intelligent creatures except for some ordinary beasts, so it was definitely a good hiding place.
This discovery can be regarded as the end of one of Phyllis's thoughts, some of the things she wants to do are actually not suitable for Hogwarts Castle, even if she escapes the professors and students, those almost ubiquitous portraits and sculptures are troublesome enough, but now, with such a hidden place, you can do whatever you want, this forbidden forest is very large, not anyone can control it, of course, including the great headmaster.
Coming to a cliff, Phyllis took out her wand and wrote a large series of magic words out of thin air, the magic words melted into the cliff, and a hole more than a meter high emerged, which was a ban she made for her small stronghold, after all, she could hide a lot of shady things in it.
It took more than ten minutes to walk through this small cave, and by the way, to check whether some of the small traps she had set up had been triggered, and Phyllis really entered the valley.
There is also a clear stream in the valley, but it looks like it is about to be frozen, and in the middle of a clearing, there is a small wooden house, which Phyllis and Amy built together, to be precise, Phyllis designed, and then points to the side, all the manual work is done by the house-elf Amy.
This house occupies a very large area, and according to Phyllis's design drawings, Amy will continue to expand, there are now three rooms, Phyllis came to the one on the left, as soon as she walked in, she felt a burst of coldness and coldness, she subconsciously tightened the fleece cloak on her body, and looked at the guy in front of her.
Phyllis etched a magic circle in this room, silver magic inscriptions appearing and disappearing, and the mysterious lines crochet a six-pointed star, still rotating in a certain pattern, and in the middle of this magic circle is a dementor imprisoned.
The reason for this idea began more than ten days ago, when Lady Pins, the librarian at Hogwarts, was told that the school had found a utility room with some book notes to be organized. Although Mrs. Pince would have liked to see some books added to the school library, she did not want to add them in this form. This utility room often belonged to a professor from a former school, and although there were no deadly traps in it, some annoying magic prohibitions were indispensable, and each time it tossed Mrs. Pince enough. Maybe it's nothing for those powerful professors, but it's annoying enough for someone like her who can only use some simple magic. Fortunately, this time she found a helper - Professor Kate, because she often looks up materials in the library, Mrs. Pince and Professor Kate are relatively familiar, although Professor Kate usually looks cold, but this matter is really a bit tricky for Mrs. Pink, she still mustered up the courage to ask Professor Kate for help. What she didn't expect was that Professor Kate was still very talkative, and when she heard that she was going to help tidy up a newly discovered utility room, she said yes.
Of course, Phyllis wasn't interested in cleaning up in the dusty and cobweb-covered utility room, and it was Amy who did the real work, and she just watched from the sidelines. It was indeed left by a professor, looking at a class schedule posted on his desk, who was in charge of Defence Against the Dark Arts at the time. While it's okay for a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher to know a little bit about the Dark Arts, there's not so much to know about the Dark Arts, right? For example, the shriveled eyeball of this bottle, although it has been ineffective due to the long time it has been placed, Phyllis can still feel the evil magic residue in it. Of course, no amount of magic can withstand the erosion of time, and the magic items and prohibitions in this clutter room have been broken, but there is one thing that can fight against time, and that is knowledge, and here, Phyllis found a magic notebook. Although it is only a thin dozen pages and the record is very disorganized, it describes the real black magic.
After reading a few pages, Phyllis lamented the decline of today's magic, in fact, the decline is a bit exaggerated, compared to the past, magic is still improving, and it is more refined and standardized, which is of course a good thing for the promotion and teaching of magic, but for people like Phyllis who like to study the nature of magic, it will feel a little abandoned.
Several of the magic recorded in this notebook are very "primitive" and "essential", although they are a little rough from the current point of view, but the catharsis of emotions is unbridled and unscrupulous - real magic needs to be supported by emotions, for example, when casting the Protector Charm, you need to be happy, and only the firm determination in the heart to put the enemy to death can cast the true power of the Curse of Death.
"It's funny, this guy is still a Slytherin." There was a spell called "Fang" in the notebook, and Phyllis summoned the power of resentment in her body as written in the note, reciting the spell and waving her wand. A puff of black-gray smoke erupted from the tip of the wand, which quickly turned into a ...... Anyway, it's a snake, but how did it grow a pair of wings, which is different from the description in the note! The snake whipped its wings and hovered in midair, staring at the only creature in the utility room except Phyllis, the house-elf Amy, its inky eyes glowing with a venomous and evil light.
Amy screamed and hid behind Phyllis, who smiled and said, "What a cowardly fellow, so scared?" She waved her wand to dissipate the magic.
Sensing that its master had summoned it was about to dissipate, the resentment in the eyes of the feathered serpent grew even more bitter, and it turned its head to stare at Phyllis and lunged at her.
What's going on?! Frightened and angry, Phyllis hurriedly took a few steps back and flashed, trying to cut off her magical support for the feathered serpent, but to her great surprise, she couldn't, and the feathered serpent was absorbing the magic and resentment from her body on its own.
Here it was again, and Phyllis didn't care about the dust and cobwebs, and she rolled behind the desk, and the feathered serpent flew by, and the desk exploded to pieces with a thud.
Good! Interesting! Phyllis gritted her teeth and thought hatefully, and with a quick swing of her wand, Bridget's eyes on her ears and the heart of the Holy Maiden on her chest shone with the power of brilliant holy light, and a sword forged with light flashed out of the void, cutting the feathered serpent in two.
The feathered serpent fell to the ground, and a large puff of black-gray smoke gushed out from the wound, and everything that was touched by this smoke decayed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its figure slowly dissipated, in the process, the vertical pupils kept staring at Phyllis, and the resentment in her eyes made her shiver.
This is black magic, this is black magic! Phyllis shouted in her heart, so domineering, so powerful, compared to this kind of magic that even the master wants to devour, what is the so-called unforgivable curse! Of course, this kind of magic is a bit overbearing, as the leader of the seventh space supernatural trialists, Phyllis thinks that she has more control over the soul than everyone in this world, but even then she was so embarrassed that she finally had to use two holy light relics to counter, if other professors at Hogwarts encountered this situation, they would probably be planted here. It's not unreasonable to think that this kind of magic is lost - of course, the magic that uses and dies can't be passed on.
At that time, the situation was already very dangerous, and Phyllis didn't care about hiding the movement, the powerful magic fluctuations attracted many professors, and when they rushed over, they saw that the always elegant and noble Professor Kate was barely standing with the support of the house-elf Amy, the materials were expensive, the well-cut magic robe was covered with dust and cobwebs, and there were a few holes, the whole utility room was no longer cluttered, but completely destroyed, and the broken furniture was everywhere, Many places seem to have withstood the powerful and evil corrosion.
"What's going on?!" Professor Flitwick asked sharply.
Phyllis smiled reluctantly and said, "This is the utility room that I discovered not long ago, I was helping Mrs. Pince clean up, and I was careless, and accidentally touched a forbidden place that was still intact, and it became like this." ”
Professor McGonagall asked with concern, "Are you alright, do you want to go to Madam Pomfrey?" ”
Phyllis said, "I'll go back and rest first, and then I'll go back to Madam Pomfrey and ask her to get her checked." ”
Seeing her say this, Professor McGonagall said, "Okay, let's go back and get some rest." ”
After this experience, Phyllis really saw the true magic power of this magical world, and she began to carefully study the magic recorded in the notebook, of course, she did not dare to try it easily.
Of course, it's just that in my mind, I don't think it's completely in line with Phyllis's character, and if you want to master this powerful power, you always have to practice it, after so many days of research, Phyllis dismantled some magic tools that seem to be quite useful from the middle, whether it's really useful depends on the actual effect, as for the experiments, some intelligent creatures are too conspicuous, and some beasts can't work at all, and this kind of experiment involving the soul will die after a few tosses. A few days ago, when Phyllis was "walking" in the Forbidden Forest at night, inspiration suddenly came, and there were a lot of ready-made experiments in front of her. Powerful, evil, full of negative emotions, but also intelligent, the Dementors are simply the ideal experimental object for dark magic experiments, so much so that Phyllis wondered if this evil monster was created by some powerful dark magic wizards in the past, and more importantly, Phyllis has hunted two Dementors during this time, but it doesn't seem to cause any waves. The Ministry of Magic is very rough in the management of the Dementors, not even management, but a certain sense of cooperation, as for some Dementors who have disappeared inexplicably, the Ministry of Magic probably doesn't know about it at all, and the Dementors will not report to the Ministry of Magic, so they can only do it themselves. Anyway, the disappearance of a few Dementors wouldn't cause much trouble, so Phyllis would be able to experiment with confidence.
This Dementor was captured by Phyllis the other day, and she was locked up here after she caught it. Although the Dementors are terrible monsters, they also need to eat, their food is not what is commonly thought of as happiness, on the contrary, what they really need is the negative emotions of people, that kind of despair and fear are their favorites, which explains why those Dementors will torture the prisoners in Azkaban to madness, leaving them in endless despair and fear, because only then can they have a constant supply of food.
After a few days of not eating, the dementor was a little sluggish, and completely lost the momentum that desperately tried to break through the magic circle in the first place. I can't wait, if I am so hungry for a few more days, I may starve to death, why is this guy so hungry! Phyllis complained in her heart, she didn't think about confined the condensation of the negative emotions of the Dementor in a magic array that exuded a strong aura of holy light, just like throwing a person into the icy sea, in order not to be purified by the holy light, this poor Dementor has rapidly consumed the negative energy in his body, and it is not easy to survive until now.
Phyllis put down her backpack and carefully took out a small crystal bottle similar to a perfume bottle from inside, which contained about five milliliters of liquid, this potion called "Dreamland" has a beautiful appearance like its name, its eyes are changing at any time, and the colorful halo is a little bit of glitter like bright starlight. This is the highest-level analysis potion that Phyllis currently masters, she has also made some improvements, and the effect is better, but the raw materials needed are more precious, and she has been in this mission world for several years, but she has only refined such a little, and she is really a little reluctant to use it like this.
