Chapter 160: The Unwinding of the Three Unforgivable Curses
On the second day, Tom officially appeared at the alchemy shop in Diagon Alley under the name of Tom Oude to manage the business, and Verr also began to make some simple alchemy items, which can make alchemy bodies for Elsie, and quickly got started with this.
Nicol also succeeded in cultivating some flowers with spiritual sense, and Brie used the magic of nature to make several alchemy items, which were thrown next to the flowers, and used to absorb the power of the outside world and give birth to flower spirits.
"How much time do you have left, Mr. Nicol Lemay?"
On the second floor of the alchemy shop, Nicol Lemay was sitting on a chair in the shape of a withered weed, and next to him was an embryo, or an egg, similar to the previous dragon egg, but full of life, which was a sign of soul conception.
"Oh, I'm fine, everything is fine." Nicol Lemay smiled cheerfully with a wrinkled face, happy with the way he looked.
"I've got a lot of time, and you'll probably hear about my departure at Hogwarts, and I'll hatch this little creature before then, and I hope you'll treat it well in the future."
"I will, Nicol Lemay, like, if I could, I would find him a friend who would raise him, after all, I'm too small, and it's a dragon."
"Of course, of course, as long as you can be healthy, anything."
After talking to Nicol Lemay, Brie left the second floor, at this time the first floor was in full swing, and last year in Diagon Alley, Lockhart's impact was still serious, now it's half a month before school starts, there shouldn't be so many little wizards, but the appearance of the fantasy game, some of the little wizards who saw the report quickly became interested and asked their parents to bring them to Diagon Alley in advance.
Tom was smiling at this time, constantly dealing with these little guys, selling cards to these little guys.
"It seems that business is good, but this pace is still too slow."
Brie walked up to Tom, who heard him and said nonchalantly, "It can be like a chocolate frog, with snacks, or we can directly work with the chocolate frog company, as long as we can give them benefits." ”
Tom stepped back, there were still Wesley twins in the store, these two guys were very excited, and they kept teaching the little wizard to operate next to the environmental alchemy chuck used for the demonstration in the store, if it weren't for the higher price of the chuck, only a few people could afford it, I'm afraid that Brie's store would be sold out.
"Chocolate Frog?"
It's a method, toys and snacks are things that little wizards can't resist, but Tom has to do it.
Brie said to Tom, "Follow me." ”
With Tom with him, Brie asked Verre, who was making alchemical items on the second floor, to take a good look at the shop, and went to the corner tower.
"Here you go."
After arriving at the Corner Tower, Brie handed the Philosopher's Stone to Tom.
"Philosopher's Stone!"
"Wasn't this destroyed by Dumbledore?" Tom is aware of recent events, he has not communicated with the outside world since he was sealed in his diary, he needs some science to avoid the world from changing with each passing day, but the wizarding world has not changed much, which makes him very disdainful.
At the beginning, he also considered the Philosopher's Stone for immortality, but Nicol Lemay was definitely a more difficult person to give birth to than Dumbledore, not to mention that Nicol Lemay was already in seclusion at that time, so Tom chose to use the "immortality method" about Horcruxes found in the Slytherin Chamber and the Forbidden Books area.
"Changsheng, I can't imagine that it is too late." Tom took the Philosopher's Stone, but said quickly, "But this is not a real immortal." ”
Thinking of Nicol Lemay's current appearance, Tom lowered his head in silence, his eyes dark.
"You haven't tried to make a potion of immortality, Brie, I guess it's just locking your soul in your body, look at Nicol Lemay, his soul must be in pain all the time now."
Although Nicol Lemay is no different from ordinary people, the soul and body are becoming more and more dissonant, and death is liberation.
"No, death is too early for me."
"Use it well."
Brie has something to do today, today is the death day of Luna's mother, she wrote a few days ago and invited Brie to go and have a look.
Luna sees a soul hook bat at her mother's grave, and she tells Brie at school that her mother accidentally broke her soul into pieces during an experiment, so she let the soul bat linger to look for the piece that was not found.
Leaving the small courtyard at the back door and walking to Diagon Alley, Brie soon found a shabby newspaper office - singing the opposite.
"Oh, please come in, you're Ode, I'm Xenophilius Lovegood, Luna's father."
A middle-aged man who looked very talkative opened the door, and when he saw Brie, his eyes lit up, and he quickly welcomed Brie into the newspaper office.
The newspaper office is very simple, but there are all that should be, or even a lot more, some places for official business are empty, and there are only some scrap newspapers piled up on the table.
"Luna is in the backyard, and she's going to pick some flowers to give to her mother."
At this, Xenophilius was a little sad, but quickly perked up, and he said with interest: "I read the report about you, and you have developed an interesting thing with Master Nicol Lemay, what is it...... Fantasy card game, I'm going to buy one in a moment. ”
"Of course, I'm more interested in your papers on the magic of nature published in several major academic magazines, it's so interesting, if you have this power, you must be able to see scimitar-horned snorers there."
"Luna came home and told me you saw them..."
Xenophilius had some expectations, but soon he heard the sound of the door opening behind him.
"Brie!"
Luna trotted over with a bouquet of flowers in her hand, and said, "You're so punctual, it looks like I'm a little late." ”
"Let's go, the soul hook bat hasn't left yet, it's very ugly, but don't say it to his face, or it will get angry and chirp in your ear."
Luna giggled, as if she remembered the silly appearance of the Soul Hook Bat.
Luna's father chuckled, took out a spoon and said, "This is the key to the cemetery, which was originally Lovegood's ancestral land, but I am the editor-in-chief of the contradiction, so I don't go back often, and there is still a house there, which is very old." ”
As he spoke, Luna's father motioned for Brie to put his hand on the spoon, and Luna held out her hand first.
"Let's go!" Luna's father activated the portkey, and Brie felt a whirlwind before falling to the grounds, where he got up and picked her up and looked at the quiet surroundings.
This is next to a forest, with an old house in the distance, and next to the forest, there is a small stone monument.
"Behind the stele is Luna's mother's grave, where our entire clan is buried."
Luna's father took Luna and Brie around the stele to Luna's mother's grave, where Luna put down the bouquet and pulled Brie back a bit, leaving her father here.
"In fact, the death of the mother hit the father even harder." Luna's eyes were full of sadness, but she said very innocent words.
"I think my mother is on the moon, she has been looking at me and my father, I have advised my father, let him let go of his sadness, look up at the moon more."
Luna stared straight at the graveyard in the distance and whispered, "Brie, you see, Soul Bat, it's still looking for my mother's soul. ”
Brie's eyes lit up with a soft purple light, and there was indeed a black, lifeless bat hovering over the graveyard, which looked back at Brie blankly, and soon flew down again.
"It's there every day, and I don't know what it eats to get by."
Luna smiled.
"The mother's soul is not here, it can't fly on the moon."
Brie was a little interested in the soul hooking bat, and remembered the ring of the ancient tree fairy he got last year, and the ring absorbed all the dead qi in the abyss, and those dead qi was the power to restrain the ancient tree goblin, and what was this soul seduction goblin.
"Death... Soul. ”
Brie looked at the hovering soul hooking bat, condensed the Patronus from his hand, and the Patronus set up a cloud of mist, rushed towards the bat, and quickly bit the bat's neck and grabbed it.
"I'll take this little guy away, Luna, do you still want to worship your mother?"
Luna shook her head.
"My mother wasn't here, my father brought me the bouquet, and he always remembered that my mother liked flowers."
"Then I'll go back, Luna, and say goodbye to my uncle for me."
Brie's intention is to take a look at creatures that don't belong to this world, and the soul crow is obviously related to death, which attracts Brie's attention even more.
"Thestrals are also dead creatures, and they can be studied when they return to Hogwarts."
Brie has recently studied the unraveling of the three unforgivable spells, that is, working on the soul, the three unforgivable spells are all black magic for the soul, powerful and tricky, wizards generally have no study of the soul, naturally there is no way to crack it.
But everything is not absolute, the savior survived the unforgivable curse, the killing curse, this is the crack.
"If you can understand how Potter survived in the first place, maybe you can know how to defend against the Killing Curse, and as for the Curse... I need someone with a killing curse in my body to study. ”
It's a pity that I don't have it now, so I can only wait until I meet a surprise experiment, and there is only one conjecture about the killing spell Brie, and that is to conjure spirits.
According to some accounts, the soul of a person who has been hit by the Killing Curse will be knocked out of the body, sucked into the caster's wand, and then dissipate into the outside world, and Brie thinks that he can use the method of gathering the will of nature to become a soul, and conjure the soul of the person who has been hit by the Killing Curse, so as to save his life.
And such an approach requires an experiment.
As for the rest of the Imperi and Heart Destroyers.
The Imperius Curse is to blind the soul and control it with the will of the caster, which requires the use of soul power to break through that layer of blindness and drive out the will of the caster.
The Drill Heart Spell is a means of constantly destroying the soul, long-term casting will tear people's souls apart, mending the soul is the only way, but it is difficult to recover the water, and the torn soul is difficult to repair, Brie thinks that maybe natural magic can repair it, and the power of the wizard can't do such a magical thing.
And these are all ways to make amends, only by taking precautions in advance can we really fight against the Unforgivable Curse, Brie was hit by the Killing Curse, but no one will help Brie summon spirits.
It is necessary to give the soul a layer of protection, but it is difficult for natural magic to resist the powerful unforgivable curse, at that time, Voldemort took the basilisk, and the killing spell Brie cast on Brie before his death Brie's natural magic power was not stopped, so how to resist the unforgivable curse is a distressing thing, and Brie has no clue for the time being.
After putting away the soul hook bat, Brie left the cemetery and used the teleportation power of the note to return to the corner tower, Tom's soul was stable at this time, and the family's preliminary affairs, the creation of the industry was also carried out in an orderly manner, and the three unforgivable spells were temporarily in trouble......
"Natural Alchemy."
Brie pondered, his gaze casually swept over the soul hooking bat that was entwined by the Patronus, and Brie had an idea.
"Maybe the Patronus Charm is more than that, I can feel the power it contains, it's a reflection of the wizard's heart."
The physical guardian god is something that many wizards can't do, and it is real on top of the entity, Brie wonders, using the guardian god as a soul seed to carry out natural alchemy, will it cultivate a guardian beast like a phoenix, accompanying the wizard, with incredible power.
"Hiss..."
Brie's Patronus responded, as if agreeing with Brie's idea, and it curled up with the soul bat, trying to crawl in front of Brie.
Brie took out the dark lamp that had trapped Voldemort and put the soul hook bat inside, then picked up his patronus and whispered, "Then in the first few days of school, you will go to the Forbidden Forest to absorb the magic of nature and the free will." ”
Brie nodded at the Patronus, leaving a hint of a soul seed in its heart, and released the Patronus.
"Brie."
At this moment, Verr stepped out of the teleportation circle of the notes, and it curled two letters around its tail.
"Here's your book list, from the owl, and by the way, Professor McGonagall's letter."
Brie took the letter and opened Professor McGonagall's letter first.
The letter reads:
Dear little Brie, it's great to hear that you've done a great thing, owning your own alchemy shop in Diagon Alley, and making a fantasy game with Mr. Nicol Lemay, but I hope you haven't forgotten the Animagus, and you'll have to start preparing for it in the next few days, or you'll miss the best time.
Brie blinked, and silently wrote a letter on a piece of paper, stating that he had performed the Animagus, hoping that Professor McGonagall would forgive him for his recklessness.
"Nicol, go get a copy of the Illusion Game and send this letter to Professor McGonagall."
Brie picked up another letter, read the list of books on it and tossed it aside, ready to buy it again tomorrow.
"Brie, I have one more thing to say here, it's about Potter, maybe you don't know, Potter used magic on vacation, and was interviewed by the Minister of Magic at the Leaky Cauldron, but Dumbledore settled the matter."
"Potter?"
"Yes, but Tom says it's a big fuss, and the Minister of Magic is aiming for Siris Blake."
"Recently, in Diagon Alley, those Aurors have been running around just to capture Blake, and Potter is his godson, but Blake killed Potter's father for Voldemort, so the Ministry of Magic thinks that Blake will deal with Potter, because Blake is Voldemort's loyal subordinate."
