Zhang Jin left the principal's office immediately after getting the book, although it was indeed very comfortable and refreshing to anger the greatest white wizard in the world, but it was also very risky.

Dumbledore himself may have some prejudice against Zhang Jin, if he is nervous and calculated, then it is still himself who suffers, so it is only right to leave quickly after taking a small advantage.

The days to come are still long, and there is no shortage of opportunities to scare him!

There is so much pressure in the usual teaching, it is necessary to relax and relax, I believe that Headmaster Dumbledore will understand.

I went back to the room and took out two books from the principal's office, one of which was "Cutting-edge Black Arts Revealed", a book that described Horcruxes in the original book, and there were also a lot of evil black magic.

Why did Dumbledore suddenly feel so relieved about himself?

The other book looks more ordinary, "Interpretation of the Origins of Magic", which looks like a notebook explaining an ancient book or something, not like an officially published book.

There is nothing to say about black magic, as far as Zhang Jin's discovery is concerned, black magic is basically aimed at the soul, the soul is the source of magic and the foundation of magic, so it is difficult for the soul to heal once it is damaged.

That's why there is the irreversibility of black magic, that is, it cannot be restored.

And because the soul will be protected by the body, it is generally difficult to attack the soul, so the ancient wizards opened their minds and extended a variety of strange methods to attack the soul.

Curses, sacrifices, etc., often seem dark and terrifying, and most of them are weird and difficult to prevent.

The damage to the soul is particularly terrifying and terrifying, which has made the dark arts notorious.

So "Cutting-edge Black Arts Revealed" is definitely a heavy book, so let's wait and read it again.

Zhang Jin is actually more interested in "Interpretation of the Origin of Magic".

First of all, this book is not in the original book, and it may have been deliberately taken out by Dumbledore.

Secondly, the legend of the origin of magic is some legends about ancient wizards written by Merlin and some accounts of Merlin's time and the beginning of human magic.

Such a book similar to myths and legends is really in line with the connotation of the golden finger or the bridge of great chance.

Moreover, Zhang Jin himself had some guesses of his own about the origin of magic.

There is not much content in the book, and most of it is a description of yes and no, and many places are rough, probable, and speculative.

It should be that the original "Origin of Magic" was too esoteric, or that what he got was only a fragment.

It is said that in ancient times, humans could not cast spells, and there were no sorcerers.

At that time, humans were weak and were driven by powerful magical beings who called them "gods".

Later, humans gradually intermarried with those creatures called "gods", so they developed magical abilities, which were passed down among humans, which is the earliest sorcerer bloodline.

Those "gods" are actually magical creatures, but they are much more powerful than the current magical creatures.

And many powerful creatures are capable of taking on human form, similar to the Animagus shapeshift.

And as human beings become stronger and stronger, the contradictions between them and those magical creatures become bigger and bigger, and human beings are unwilling to be driven.

Therefore, human beings at that time thought of many ways to enhance their own strength.

The most widely used is to combine with magical creatures, and the more powerful the creatures, the stronger the offspring they can become.

This habit continues even today.

Then humans use the bloodline of these gods to strengthen themselves, fight against the "gods", and leave all kinds of legends in human history.

However, this method also has the disadvantage that other half-breed offspring are not of the same mind as humans, except for offspring that are very similar to humans.

There are even some magical creatures that claim to be gods.

For example, the goblins that exist today actually have human blood, and then the centaur clan, the giant clan, etc., these existing magical creatures with human characteristics were basically born during that period of time, and there are many annihilations in the long history.

So then the human wizard entered a stage of brainstorming, in which people continued to experiment with various ways to enhance their magical powers.

We are also experimenting with ways to use magic.

For example, devouring the flesh and blood of other magical creatures later evolved into a sacrificial ritual.

Another example is to prey on the cubs of magical creatures for slavery training.

There are also transplanted organs of magical creatures, especially hearts, and many centaurs have been created.

Finally, it was the attempt to transform into a magical creature, and this was the birth of the Animagus Transfiguration.

It was also during this period that the understanding of magic increased dramatically.

Human wizards, who could only cast spells by instinct like magical creatures, began to have the concept of learning.

And in order to be able to fuse the bloodline, wizards have invented all kinds of magic, the most famous of which is the Curse of Death.

It was the first time that humans had a strong appreciation for the effects of magic on the soul.

Although it was not clear at the time, it was only believed that this spell could send the soul to hell.

It is impossible to verify who was the first to invent it, but the original purpose of the Curse was to plunder the bloodline of magical creatures, and it was meant to rob power.

And the power comes from the soul, so it becomes a soul plunder.

However, after the plunder, because the two souls could not coexist, most of the people who cast this spell died of self-destruction.

And because of the power of this spell, people did not abandon it, but continued to improve.

From this, this spell became deprivation of power, that is, deprivation of the soul, which became the requisite curse.

At that time, the side effects of the requisition spell were huge, and they often cost lives, so wizards did not use them easily.

This period of history made wizards realize that some magic can produce great power, and they can directly attack the soul, which is black magic.

Souls are very fragile, and even the most powerful magical creatures can easily attack and destroy.

As a result, the wizards of that period invented a lot of magic for the soul, some of which evolved into the current black magic, and more of which dissipated into history.

Wizards used these black magic to defeat many powerful magical creatures, but due to the pollution and distortion of their own souls by black magic, this caused humanity to also begin to divide and not be at peace.

It wasn't until later that some of these spells were finally defined as black magic, and some wizards who practiced using black magic were defined as dark wizards.

Thus began to limit the development of the dark arts.

And because wizards have big brains and pits in their heads from time to time, black magic has long been rampant among wizards at this time, and wizards often ignore the harm of black magic for more powerful power.

It wasn't until Merlin appeared that this problem was resolved.
