Chapter 96: The Mystery of the Horcrux

This winter break, the Order of the Phoenix did not assign Lockhart a specific task. He was happy, because the books in the ** area of the Ministry of Magic were forbidden to be taken out, and in order to study the Horcruxes, he soaked in them almost all day, and all kinds of ancient magic opened his eyes. He even found information that Voldemort might have placed a curse on Defence Against the Dark Arts professorship, which also cost a part of his soul, with the effect that any Defence Against the Dark Arts professor would suffer a major catastrophe during his tenure as a professor, and his calamity was probably a death curse given to him by Ginny.

- He finally found out how the Horcrux was made, it was really evil witchcraft.

First of all, the person who makes the zuò horcrux needs to prepare a safe container, preferably with objects, and life is theoretically okay. Then, he wants to murder several people, the stronger the soul of the person killed, the smaller the number needed, and finally burn the soul of the victim to produce energy, to tear his own soul, and finally let the torn soul enter the prepared container, and the Horcrux is completed.

The most important thing is that the mind of the person who makes the Zuò Horcrux will be violently distorted because of the incomplete soul. At the same time, in order to fill the missing soul, that person can absorb the magic in the victim's soul into the body to fill the missing part of the soul.

No wonder Dumbledore's mana accumulation at such an age, with the Elder Wand, he can only draw with Voldemort!

The collection of books in the area is so large that Lockhart can only pick and choose. He also looked at all the cases about Horcruxes, Voldemort was not the first dark wizard to make Horcruxes, in fact, there are countless wizards who have made Horcruxes, but there are only 4 successful Horcruxes in the records, all of whom are dark wizards who shocked the world. But the record is very clear that these 4 wizards are dead, why.

The first wizard to make a Horcrux was a dark magic genius who accidentally discovered that burning someone else's soul could split his own soul, (Lockhart wondered, is it okay for this guy to split his own soul when he kills?) He succeeded in making a Horcrux, but he didn't know that the Horcreature should be kept properly. After this Horcrux was inadvertently destroyed, he never succeeded in making a second one, and when he tried, he failed to split the soul and died.

The second Horcrux maker, he put part of his soul in his wand, thinking that it was foolproof, but after a long period of magical infusion, this soul awakened to consciousness on its own, disconnected from its master, and became an independent soul. Although the soul was destroyed by his master, it was clear that the creature had no success in crafting a second Horcrux, and he died from soul damage shortly after.

It turns out that the soul inside the Horcrux is not static! maybe in the future, we can try to inject magic into the indestructible Horcrux to revive it?

The third Horcrux maker, the information does not state how his Horcrux was destroyed, but he did not reappear after his natural death. The speculation in the wizarding world is that the souls in the Horcruxes also age, and eventually die with their owners.

The fourth Horcrux maker is Voldemort - he is known to have more than two Horcruxes, although Lockhart knows in his heart that Voldemort has seven. How the hell did he do it? So many talented dark wizards in history couldn't stand the tearing of their souls when they made the first Horcrux, but Voldemort actually did six in one go, plus Harry! How did he solve the disadvantage that his soul could not be torn many times? How could his soul be so large enough to tear so many times? Did he solve the disadvantage that the soul in the Horcrux also ages? What level of magic did he reach after absorbing the power of so many people? Is his soul still enough to continue to be a Horcrux?

This qiē was probably known only to Voldemort himself, and Lockhart let down the book in a terrible cry. He now knew where Voldemort's Horcruxes were, one was in the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, in the treasure pile of the house-elf Crecher, and Lockhart stole him out and didn't know how to explain it, so he had to keep him in his room at the headquarters, and the other was probably in Bellatrix's Gringotts vault, for which Lockhart was not very sure, because she was dead, did Voldemort hide her ten years ago, or did he give it to her after the great escape? How is that vault open now, maybe Cyrius Black is eligible? He'll have to take the time to ask, there's another one in the Room of Requirement, but Lockhart can't find it, maybe only Harry has a way, but Dumbledore won't let them tell Harry about the Horcruxes, Nagini must be with Voldemort, Lockhart and his party almost caught it at the Ministry of Magic last time, and they don't know how to lure it out again.

Lockhart has basically read the information about Horcruxes, and there is not much in the first place. He had now found the Ancient Magic Zone, expecting to find some powerful battle spells.

If you don't know if you don't see it, the spells of ancient wizards are really varied, and even a small fire spell can be divided into several different ways to cast it. There are also all kinds of spells that work strangely, some can reverse the gender, some can make people infertile, and Lockhart also saw a magical spell, True Love, which immediately transfers your love for a person of the opposite sex to the other person, so that she or he immediately falls in love with you, but at the cost of losing the ability to feel love...... Lockhart had no idea what this spell was for.

The book "The Most Powerful Spells of Ancient Times" caught Lockhart's attention, and he immediately took it down and looked through it.
