Chapter 408: Magic Affects Magic



Wu Ma was surrounded by this group of people.

He smelled an extremely dangerous feeling from everyone, including Sprout.

These professors are well-known masters in their respective fields.

"Uma, Uma," he called softly.

Flitwick was the first to speak: "It's very strange magic. This magic is also very strange."

"But since it's a curse, will the Patronus Charm have some effect?"

As the oldest white magic, the role of the Patronus is naturally more than just expelling Dementors. As a man-made creature, Dementors were first created in the mid-to-late 15th century, or even in the 16th century, and the history of the Patronus Charm is more than just three or four hundred years.

At the beginning of magic.

White magic coexists with black magic.

"Live on and live better" Based on this simplest and most rustic wish, the white magic of healing and protection was born.

It is also based on this simplest and most honest wish that the black magic of harm and plunder was born.

Nothing will improve life more easily than a little "snatch".

There is no method that is less burdensome, more convenient and faster than "cursing a person to get sick, suffer a natural disaster, or encounter a wild beast."

curse.

The oldest and most powerful black magic born from the human heart.

The Patronus Charm was created to deal with this situation, to prevent curses, to identify curses, and to protect the owner from curses.

certainly……

Magic is also developing.

After the emergence of more powerful black magic, such as the Killing Curse and the Cruciatus Curse, this ancient spell gradually lost its original effect, and even many people forgot about it.

It was not until the Ministry of Magic discovered Azkaban and the monster "Dementors" invented by the dark wizard Axtis, which could not be killed by any means, that this ancient spell began to shine again.

As a master of spells, Flitwick naturally knew the ancient effects of the Patronus Charm.

"A soul without a body is very fragile." Snape shook his head. "Professor Flitwick, you have never studied the soul and do not know its characteristics. Unless it can be completely protected, the slightest breath can easily destroy the soul."

Flitwick was startled and looked up at Snape.

I'm not a dark wizard, and I've never played with souls. I'm really sorry...

"Use the Imperius Curse to extract the soul, then remove the curse on the body, and then put the soul back in." Snape continued.

Dumbledore raised his hand and placed it on his shoulder: "Harry thinks so too."

Snape was stunned.

He felt mixed emotions and was somewhat shocked by this matter. He and Potter actually had the same idea?

nausea?

Relieved?

These emotions surged in his mind.

"This is certainly the most convenient option," Dumbledore continued, "but it is dark magic after all. If it is not necessary..."

Dumbledore didn't finish his words.

Is black magic good?

In some ways, it is good.

More convenient and faster.

But black magic will have some impact on both the user and the one being used.

Dumbledore looked at Snape quietly.

The former Potions Professor and current Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor was still haggard, much more haggard than before. He was skinny, with dull eyes. Although his hair was still unkempt and greasy before, it was now messy and dry, like winter grass.

He had no idea what was going on inside Snape.

But this state...

He knew this all too well, having experienced this himself in the years immediately following Ariana's death.

He had done the same thing in the years immediately following Lily Evans' death.

He has been greatly affected.

Even though performing dark magic was as natural to Snape as breathing or brewing potions, Dumbledore still didn't want Snape to have even the slightest burden.

Perhaps it's because they have experienced the same tragic experience.

He has himself to blame.

But he also has his reasons.

Snape said nothing, lowered his head, and looked back at Harry, a pair of amber eyes on that increasingly hateful face. This made him sigh softly and turn his head back.

He couldn't tell now whether he was doing this for Lily or for Harry.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

Professor McGonagall cleared her throat with a straight face: "I think what Filius said makes sense. If it were you, Albus, your Patronus should be..."

"Even I can't do that." Dumbledore shook his head. "The soul is fragile. Extremely fragile."

As the only two people in the office who had been exposed to the Dark Arts, his and Snape's opinions carried a lot of weight.

"But the Patronus Charm is a good breakthrough." Dumbledore continued, "We can weaken the curse first, and when it reaches a level that the Patronus Charm can protect it, we can try to dispel the remaining curse."

"Curse the curse?" Snape realized what he meant.

Yennefer put the book down and looked at the group of people.

Dumbledore nodded. "Yes."

"Although it is magic, it is not our magic." Dumbledore thought, "Madam Yennefer said that their magic is a use of elemental power."

"So from our perspective, can we consider it as an object with special properties?"

"Just like the amazing technologies created by ordinary people, they are also a kind of utilization of the elements that exist in the world."

"But our magic can affect them."

The other professors were thoughtful.

Yennefer frowned.

This is a new and strange way to think about it.

"Then you should call Mr. Weasley, or that guy Black. They are surprisingly experts in this area." Snape spoke coldly with a bit of ridicule.

Sprout took out his wand: "Then let me try?"

Dumbledore nodded.

Sprott waved his wand and chanted the spell: "Growth Imprisonment!"

This is a spell used to preserve plants that have been dug out of the soil and are ready to be transplanted elsewhere.

Keep it in its current growth state.

certainly……

This spell is also often used in pet shops, where pet puppies are sold at a peak time. After all, the start of the school year is the peak season for pet sales, and September is not the peak season for pet breeding.

The turbid golden light fell on it.

Wu Ma paused, his eyelids drooped, and he seemed to be getting sleepy and about to fall into a deep sleep.

"It worked." Sprout exclaimed.

They could all sense the stagnation of the curse on Wuma.

Yennefer stood up, walked over, and was a little surprised.

Magic will be affected by magic, or be affected in this way.

"The force is loose!"

Snape swung his wand and cast a spell.

Wuma collapsed to the ground.

The power of the curse also began to weaken.

"That's a good idea." Dumbledore rolled his eyes and said cheerfully.
