Chapter 119: Conjecture about Horcruxes
Mrs. Longbottom and Neville were waiting here.
Ten minutes ago, Neville seemed to misunderstand what Kyle meant, and instead of going to the healer, he went downstairs and started yelling that there were werewolves, and tried to get the others to go to the second floor to help.
But no one believed him, even though they had heard the movement from upstairs with their own ears.
Because werewolves don't appear during the day, this is the most basic common sense in the wizarding world.
And it's also St. Mungo, a place where there are many talented people, and there are many people with brain problems, and just twenty minutes ago, someone claimed to have raised a dragon upstairs.
It's just a werewolf, not to be fussed about.
In addition, the therapists didn't believe this little fat man with a round face.
They were on the second floor because of another person entirely.
- The curly-haired trainee therapist who led Kyle by, he was in the werewolf's hospital room at the time, and witnessed the whole process of the werewolf's transformation.
But fortunately, he was not bitten, perhaps because the werewolf had just transformed and his brain was still very confused, so he casually slapped him into the wall.
As soon as he dragged himself out, he immediately contacted his other colleagues in the manner characteristic of Saint Mungo, and told them about the werewolf.
That's what happened before.
On the other hand, Mrs. Longbottom hurried to Neville after learning of the incident, and after learning what had happened from her grandson, the old lady immediately took Neville to thank him.
However, they were a step too late, and by the time the two found Kyle, he had just gone to the sixth floor with the Dean and Dumbledore.
Mrs. Longbottom simply stood at the corner of the stairs with Neville until they came down.
Later, Mrs. Longbottom invited Kyle to a hospital room on the fifth floor.
Neville's parents are there, lying in a hospital bed, staring blankly at Kyle.
"You saved Neville, and they want to thank you."
Mrs. Longbottom turned her head to look at the hospital bed and said with a hint of trembling, "Frank, Alice, the boy is here." ”
But there was still no sparkle in their eyes, as if they had not heard Mrs. Longbottom's words.
"Don't mind, kid." Mrs. Longbottom explained: "I can feel that they want to thank you in person, but they can't express it. ”
As Mrs. Longbottom spoke, Neville stood beside him, his head bowed, as if he was interested in his toes.
But this behavior made Mrs. Longbottom very angry.
"Heads up, Neville!" She said sternly: "You shouldn't be ashamed of what happened to your parents, you should be proud!" ”
"I didn't ......," Neville retorted, in a small but firm voice.
Then Mrs. Longbottom looked at Kyle again, straightened her back, and said proudly, "They were tormented mad by the Death Eaters with the Piercing Heart Curse...... The lost dogs tried to force their masters to find out, but they had the wrong idea, and the Longbottom family would never compromise with the Dark Wizard! ”
"Worthy ......of admiration," Kyle said in awe.
"You too, kid."
Mrs. Longbottom said, "There are not many people who can defeat a werewolf at such a young age.
I hope Neville will have the courage to become an Auror after graduation and revive the glory of the Longbottom family......"
She turned her gaze to Neville, and suddenly frowned, "Back straight, Neville, I've told you many times, back straight!" ”
After leaving the room, Kyle could still clearly hear Mrs. Longbottom reprimanding Neville.
He looked at Dean Sathya next to him and asked, "Is it not possible to cure the injuries caused by the Heart Drilling Curse?" ”
"It's hard, any problem that involves the soul is hard to heal, werewolves are like that, and so is the Mind Curse."
Dean Sasya thought for a moment and said, "The Heart Drilling Spell brought them not only physical injuries, but also soul-tearing pain.
The wizard's body is very fragile, and it is like piecing together a broken mirror on a tight balloon, and the balloon will be punctured if you are not careful.
All we can do now is to reluctantly put together the prototype of the mirror, and wait for a more effective way to come out without the balloon bursting. ”
"Like a wolf poison potion?" Kyle said thoughtfully.
"That's right." Dean Sathya smiled, "What we are waiting for is the "Wolf Poison Elixir" that can solve the Diamond Heart Curse, and we have been working it. ”
Kyle didn't say anything more, and walked forward silently.
At the mention of Broken Souls, he suddenly thought of Horcruxes.
Yes, Horcruxes...... Invented by the dastardly Helbo, this is the most evil dark magic item in the world.
Kyle remembers that the first thing to do to create a Horcrux is to split his soul by killing before he can put it into a Horcrux.
What if the soul is split from the beginning...... Is it possible to skip this step?
Just like the Longbottoms, their souls were tormented by the Diamond Heart Curse, didn't they meet the requirements for making Horcruxes?
Kyle fell into deep thought.
Since you can't piece together a complete mirror on a balloon, wouldn't it be better to just take the pieces away?
A Horcrux is a very special thing, it is like an extra body, or a bridge, connecting those broken souls.
And what's even more interesting is that once this bridge is formed, each soul fragment will become relatively intact, which is why Voldemort has destroyed six Horcruxes and still hasn't gone crazy.
It is precisely because of this property that it allows a person to successfully achieve eternal life.
In that case, is it possible to make the broken souls of the Longbottoms into Horcruxes?
After the soul is reduced to pieces, don't you have to think about those fragments anymore?
Of course, this is just one of Kyle's thoughts.
The problem now was that he hadn't read any books about Horcruxes, and his knowledge of them was limited to the scratches in his memory, and it wasn't clear if it was feasible.
Kyle subconsciously glanced at Dumbledore not far away.
The other party quickly noticed it and gave him a puzzled look.
Kyle quickly turned his gaze to the side.
Ask Dumbledore?
Forget it. He estimated that as soon as he said the word Horcrux, he would be rammed into the wall by the Elder Wand, and it would be embarrassing if he couldn't pick it out then.
If you can't ask, you'll have to look for it yourself.
Kyle plans to wait for school to start and look for the forbidden book section first.
It doesn't matter if you can't find it, there will be a diary next year.
As for the crown in the Room of Requirement...... Truth be told, Kyle didn't want to touch that thing if he could.
It's too dangerous, and it doesn't do him any good.
