Chapter 81 The Killing Curse (Part 2)
PS: Please vote for me!
Mike, who knew nothing about this, did not start learning the Killing Curse immediately after arriving at the Room of Requirement. Instead, he reviewed all his knowledge of the Killing Curse in his mind.
The Killing Curse is a very powerful black magic. It is not because of its amazing power.
Some people may think that the instant death feature of the Killing Curse is very powerful, but in fact, many spells can easily achieve this effect.
Although the evil curse "Thunder Explosion" is not listed as an unforgivable curse, its lethality is not weaker than the Killing Curse at all. If it hits the human body directly, it can also achieve the effect of instant death.
And not only the Explosion Curse, but also "Burning Flames", "Shattered" and even Transfiguration, these can be said to be daily spells. The lethality is not bad. Compared with the powerful lethality of spells, the human body is too fragile.
The reason why the Killing Curse is regarded as an unforgivable curse is that the Ministry of Magic explains that it is not only extremely lethal, but also affects the user's mind and makes him evil and crazy if used for a long time.
Mike scoffs at this statement.
In his opinion, there is only one reason why the Killing Curse is strictly prohibited, and it is too easy to learn.
The above-mentioned spells such as the Fire Curse and the Explosion Curse require a considerable amount of magic power to kill the enemy instantly, and also require a very high level of magic power to support. But the Killing Curse does not need it at all. Its magic power consumption is negligible compared to the former, and even underage wizards can learn it easily.
As for affecting the user's mind, Mike would never believe it. There are so many people who can use the Killing Curse in the original book. The famous half-blood prince Snape can use the Killing Curse, and he uses it no less than those Death Eaters, and he has not become much evil.
Another reason why Mike is so eager to learn the Killing Curse is that the Killing Curse directly acts on the soul, which allows it to cause damage to some special units. For example, ghosts, dementors, and magic portraits can be threatened by the killing curse, but the effect is not as good as it is on humans. And most importantly, the killing curse can destroy Horcruxes.
In the original book, the means used by Harry and others to destroy Horcruxes are the venom of the basilisk and the sword of Gryffindor that absorbs the venom of the basilisk. However, Mike does not plan to participate in the main plot of the original book this semester. The basilisk is left to Harry and Dumbledore to deal with. Therefore, he naturally cannot get the venom of the basilisk, so the characteristic of the killing curse that can destroy the Horcrux is very important. You must know that the Horcrux is not just the notebook.
After confirming the above content, Mike took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and took out a glass box containing a white mouse from the traceless stretching spell bag.
Since the "anti-killing curse vest" saved his life last time, Mike has prepared many white mice in the traceless stretching spell bag he carries with him, so that he can assemble an "anti-killing curse vest" at any time. All these mice were bought by Mike from the Muggle world. Although there were mice available in Diagon Alley, the price was too high.
The special effect of the Kedavra Curse made it not so effective on the alchemical doll. In order to observe the effect of the Kedavra Curse more intuitively, Mike chose to use mice as targets.
He took out a mouse and used the levitation spell to make it float in the air and unable to move. Mike closed his eyes and began to brew the killing intention.
Mike had killed many people in his previous life. According to Mike's guess, he should have some so-called murderous aura on his body, just like those professional killers. The more people he killed, the different temperament on his body would be from ordinary people. Then it should be easier for him to release the Kedavra Curse, and it would not be impossible to succeed in one go.
"Avada Kedavra!"
After brewing for a while, Mike suddenly opened his eyes, and the spell drew a strange arc in the air and pointed at the mouse, while shouting the spell of the Kedavra Curse.
However, nothing happened. The expected flash of green light and the fall of the mouse did not happen. Facts have proved that Mike is still too naive. Killing many people does not mean that the killing intention is strong.
If the killing intention fails, then the only way is to use the association method.
Looking at the little white mouse struggling in the air, Mike's pupils began to slowly dilate. As a stray orphan, Mike is very familiar with creatures like mice. These damn creatures not only carry a huge amount of germs, but are also very aggressive.
In the dirty and messy city sewers, some mice can grow to 20 cm long, and even ordinary cats dare not provoke such mice. When Mike and his friends were wandering on the street, they couldn't stand the cold in winter, so they went to sleep in the sewer.
Although the smell in the sewer is very unpleasant, at least the temperature will be much higher than on the ground. However, that experience became Mike's nightmare.
That night, Mike was awakened by the screams of his friends. When he looked at the source of the sound with sleepy eyes, the nightmare-like scene in front of him dispelled all the remaining sleepiness.
One of them had more than a dozen mice the size of kittens hanging on his body, biting his flesh. The man being bitten was screaming and struggling on the ground, trying to throw the mice away or crush them to death. However, the mice bit so hard that no matter how he struggled, it was useless.
He probably realized that this was not very effective, and struggled to stand up, but failed after several attempts. Mike looked at his feet and found that the shoes on his feet and his toes had been completely eaten by mice, leaving only a few bloody finger bones exposed. There were even a few smaller mice still gnawing at the remaining flesh on the bones.
After struggling for a while, he finally gave up and reached out to pull the mice lying on his face off. There were two huge mice lying on his face, covering his entire face, so that Mike could not see his expression. One of his ears was gone at this time, and a small mouse was trying to drill into the ear hole, as if it wanted to drill in and gnaw the soft meat inside.
The two hands he stretched out were not much better than his feet. Several fingers had disappeared, and the backs of his hands, which were soaked in dark red blood, could vaguely see the white bones.
He didn't know whether his hands had no strength due to the serious injuries, or because the two rats bit him too hard. He pulled them off twice in succession but failed. He could only scream in pain.
As time went by, his screams became weaker and weaker. He seemed to know that he couldn't go on like this. He got ruthless and grabbed one of the rats with both hands and pulled it hard.
This time he succeeded, but he not only pulled the rat off, but also his eyeballs... He
didn't know if it would be blocked. He was a little panicked.
