A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

Chapter 336 The Most Painful Punishment

Felix stared at the altar, such a large statue, right in front of him, turned into decay in a very short time, shattered into pieces, and then was swept into fine sand by the invisible wind, and finally nothing was left.

Is it because of the breath you blow?

Certainly not, Felix thought, this is ridiculous, Haierbo's statue should be similar to those basilisk corpses he saw before, and it is also in a sealed state. Millennium?

He thought about it seriously, the despicable Haierbo was active in ancient Greece, earlier than the four founders of Hogwarts, and when the Big Four rose, Haierbo had disappeared for hundreds of years.

For them, Haierbo is already part of the legend - only know that it is notorious and has never seen a real person. Even when they were young, their parents might have been frightened by Haierbo's evil reputation for being disobedient.

Felix grinned, amused at the sudden thought. It is a fact that legends were once children, but few people would associate them like this. They are more inclined to think that legends are legends from the beginning.

Felix put aside the thought, became serious, and thought seriously about the Horcrux issue.

That's right, Horcrux. For him, the only attraction of the Horcrux to him is the research on the soul. Unfortunately, even if he masters the method of making the Horcrux, he still knows very little about the realm of the soul.

Not even the fur was touched.

He thought of the book, "The Secrets of Cutting Edge Black Magic," which wasn't more than one type of Horcrux magic, but it was without a doubt the most evil of them all. The cause of evil is not only the need for murder, but also the division of souls.

It is an act against nature to make an intact soul incomplete, and it will definitely pay a very heavy price. This is clearly mentioned in the book. As for the price, the book does not say, and Felix has no idea. know.

...

When Hermione first came in, she was taken aback. It turned out that there were not only the two basilisks blocking the door, but a large nest inside. They bump into themselves, and then come to the professor, who happens to hear the professor mention Horcruxes.

She was shocked. Did the professor discover the fourth Horcrux of the mysterious man? Thinking about it carefully, it was wrong, because a name was also mentioned earlier - Haierbo, and she quickly realized the meaning of the name Haierbo.

The despicable Haierbo, a famous dark wizard in ancient Greece, is one of the sources of many existing black magic, and invented many evil curses and black magic, the most famous of which is Horcrux! In addition to that, he is a Parseltongue, discovering how to hatch basilisks.

Could it be that they made a mistake and entered the place where Haierbo hid the Horcrux?

Just as he was about to ask, the professor sighed and blew a breath, and then the solid-looking statue in front of him fell apart and turned into flying ashes, and even when she came over, not even the ashes disappeared, as if everything was her hallucination .

"Professor?" Hermione tilted her head and looked at Felix, who had been silent since just now.

Felix looked at her and said calmly, "It's nothing, just a little emotional."

"You destroyed Haierbo's Horcrux?"

"Well, it has nothing to do with me, it has been destroyed long ago, we just discovered the fact."

Hermione blinked and tried to analyze using her limited knowledge about Horcruxes. She first glanced at the others. The three of them had just come in and were smacking their tongues at the basilisk corpse standing in front of her. The goblin Gonuk ...she can't see, maybe blocked by the basilisk.

So she asked in a low voice, "Professor, if the Horcrux is destroyed, what about Haierbo's main soul?"

Felix's eyes rolled, which was a very interesting question. The function of the Horcrux was to split the soul and hide a part of it in an object outside the body. In this way, even if the body is attacked or destroyed, it cannot die, because a part of the soul remains in the world unharmed.

But this is for the case where the wizard dies unexpectedly and the Horcrux survives, what if both of them have an accident?

Is there a possibility that Haierbo invented the method of making a Horcrux and successfully made the first Horcrux, but before he could study how to restore his body, he died unexpectedly, or simply died of old age? ...

This kind of speculation is not impossible. The reason why Haierbo is admired or hated by latecomers is because he creatively invented a lot of black magic. Is it possible? Before him, no one has studied the recovery of undead. The way of the flesh?

Felix deduced along this guess, Haierbo's main soul is immortal because of the existence of the Horcrux, and he has been wandering, but he can't find a good way to resurrect, so I don't know how many years, the Horcrux is also in a long time. Corruption, what is waiting for Haierbo?

Did he die outright, or would he continue to wander in a certain corner of the world, worse than the humblest wandering soul?

"I don't know either," Felix replied to Hermione's question. "Maybe it's better to die."

Hermione couldn't understand for a while, and wanted to continue to ask, but she quickly realized the key, losing the Horcrux and the spare main soul, there were only three possibilities, either dissipated, or lingered like Voldemort, or successfully resurrected.

The first two are unknown, but the third possibility is extremely slim, because later generations have never found traces of his activities - this is actually very inappropriate. If Haierbo was resurrected with the help of a Horcrux, he would have no reason to hide.

And the remaining two possibilities, according to the professor's answer, 'maybe it's more enjoyable to die', which is the ending of the main soul dissipating, but if not... just like Voldemort, wandering in the world for thousands of years?

She shuddered suddenly, the most painful punishment in the world, right?

"Little girl, get out of the way."

A voice said, making Hermione tremble with fright, she jumped aside, and found that the goblin Gonuk was looking at the relief on the side wall of the altar. She lowered her head and saw that the goblin was holding a silver knife at some point. , trying to pry the gemstones in relief.

Gonuk succeeded in getting a ruby, he breathed lightly, wiped it with his sleeve, and said greedily: "An ancient gem, I smell the rich history, it is more precious than any of my collections, that is The weight of time!"

Hermione blinked, she felt that this sentence should be just a rhetorical device, similar to what Trelawney and Refittin said, but she still asked curiously: "What did you see, Mr. Gonook? I can see see?"

"No! Everything here is mine, no, Gringotts," he said solemnly.

Felix smiled, "Miss Granger, you can pick one or two of what you like as a souvenir."

The goblin looked at him viciously, but Felix took out an invitation letter from Gringotts and raised it at him, and he instantly became wilted like a deflated ball.

"What's wrong?" Hermione asked in confusion.

Clemie walked over and said with a smile, "Professor Heppe is an expert hired by Gringotts, so he's naturally paid. Gonook realizes this, so..." She made a heart-wrenching gesture towards Hermione. , Hermione giggled.

But Hermione was just curious and didn't have any ideas for her own. She didn't have any interest in gems, so she looked around the circle and looked at the patterns on the altar-there were wizards, either identifying gems, or sitting majestically, or It is writing at the desk. Next to these wizards, there are always various gadgets, gems, wands, vials, hourglasses.

She still wanted to take a closer look, but the goblin followed wherever she went, and finally got bored, she ran to the corridor and the professor to look at the rune left on the slate.

Felix was recording the ancient magic on it, and Hermione was more interested in the stories told on the slate, but after knowing that the owner of the dark room was Haierbo, she naturally understood that it was all fake, and Haierbo carefully woven it. 's scam.

But why did he do it?

Hermione tried to understand Haierbo's intentions. She had seen many ancient wizards' magic codex from Felix, and she was not unfamiliar with their mentality, and Haierbo's actions made her extremely puzzled.

After thinking for a long time, she has two directions. One is that Haierbo hopes to lure clever wizards, trick them into the dark room, and use the magic inside to achieve ulterior secrets, such as holding a resurrection ceremony, but unfortunately, he waited for nothing. millennia.

In the other direction, Haierbo reserved a blindfold. He never thought that people could leave alive after knowing this place. And all the previous arrangements were for this purpose——

Put the hiding place of the Horcrux under the pyramid, and cover up the secret of the Horcrux with the help of the tomb of the pharaoh, making it difficult for outsiders to find it. This is the first layer of protection.

The black fog and the curse in the corridor are the second layer of protection. If a wizard who strays into this place is a little less skilled, he is likely to die in the black fog for no apparent reason and be digested by the black fog. You know, Mr. Goblin is a Said that the black mist is corrosive!

Even if a wizard succeeds in breaking through the black mist, there is still a third layer of protection, that is, the temptation of ancient magic on the slate. Time and time again alone trying to break the invisible curse.

Even if he successfully passed these levels, there were a dozen basilisks waiting for him in the end. According to Hermione's guess, no matter how powerful a wizard was, he couldn't resist the attacks of a dozen basilisks at the same time, right?

"If that's the case, then Haierbo is too scary and deserves to be called despicable Haierbo." Hermione muttered softly.

"What?" Felix asked.

"No." Hermione shook her head immediately, followed the professor's line of sight, and looked at the rune sequence above.

Felix said gently: "I don't have time to guide you right now, but you can try to learn it. Do you understand what I mean, just the core runes, see which one you feel the most about, maybe It's your second ancient magic."

Hermione nodded, excitedly trying one by one. The first ancient magic, she didn't know the core rune, gave up...

The second one, meaning 'twisted', she tried to outline the core rune and the sub-core rune, the air in her hand seemed to twist a bit, but she tried several times, but it was still unsuccessful.

She kept shifting positions until the second to last, and Hermione's eyes lit up. Core Rune - flame, sub-core Rune, know all! She also knows most of the remaining peripheral runes.

That's it. She had a strong premonition in her heart.

Hermione carefully sketched the rune in the air. She had experience in learning lighting. She knew the most basic operation process of ancient magic - the core rune was a figurative symbol of magic, and the sub-core rune determined the external characteristics and attributes of magic. Rune builds and perfects complete magic.

Hermione first sketched the flame rune, made it constantly switch between rune symbols and flames, then returned to ancient rune, and continued to outline the sub-core rune.

After a short while, Hermione wiped her sweat and stopped. Covering a yawn with his hands, he decided to take a break.

Felix had already recorded the rune sequence on the slate, and there were gentle black lightning flashing between his fingers, but this picture only flashed away, he put away the magic, and said to Hermione with satisfaction: "Let's go out, they have already Wait outside."

They walked out of the pyramid and returned to the tent camp. The goblin was so exhausted that he slumped in his chair, complaining that his knife was cracked, but no one sympathized with him, "Because you won't let us help." Cremy said, Make yourself a small glass of ice water on the side.

She poured herself a large mouthful, frowned, then stretched out a little, and exhaled a long breath.

Others are also very relaxed, and they are lucky enough to come out of such a dangerous place. Faisal and Rahman immediately decided to take time off to watch the Quidditch World Cup.

Felix was also a little tired. He took off the basilisk skin cloak, took out a silver pocket watch, flicked the cover lightly, and a sniffle drilled out from inside, standing in his palm, yelling at Felix. , counts his crimes, and turns his butt on him.

"It's my fault," Felix said with a smile, his mood suddenly improved. He took out a gold Galleon and lightly touched the shoulder of Niffler Warren. It seemed to smell a charming scent. He turned his head a little bit, and caught a glimpse of the golden light in the corner of his eye, and immediately grabbed it in a flash. After leaving Kim Galleon, he stuffed it into his pocket, and patted Felix's finger with satisfaction.

Hermione widened her eyes and looked at the little guy, "Professor, is this Sniff?"

"Well, I raised her, you can call her Valen." Felix said, touching its pink beak with his fingers, sniffing and ignoring it, looking left and right, probing his brain.

Hermione took out the small locket that could control the temperature, shook it in front of its eyes, sniffed Warren and looked left and right, then immediately jumped down the table into Hermione's arms, stretched out her short hand to reach the small locket .

When Niu Niu appeared, the goblin Gonuk immediately widened his eyes, covered the pocket next to him, and shouted in horror: "Take that little devil away, take it away!"

His scream caught Sniffle's attention, and it poked its head out of Hermione's arms, staring at Gonuk the goblin with small bright black eyes.
