Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 230 Dementors are precious

Sainz also has a general idea about the design of soul defense, but it is still in the idea stage and has just begun to be implemented. Capturing the soul monster is the first step.

Under the current knowledge structure of the magic world, Sainz could only explore on his own, as there were no spells to refer to or learn from.

Some people always say that magic is idealistic and can achieve any idea, but Sainz is never too optimistic about this.

Perhaps the result is inevitable, but the process is bound to be tortuous.

Currently, his understanding of the soul is very limited. He doesn't even know what the soul is, let alone quickly develop a way to strengthen or arm the soul.

But there is still a way!

Since it is not easy to enhance the soul directly, let's take a roundabout way.

To give an analogy, if a person wants to enhance his physical defense, he can choose to practice the Golden Bell Cover or Iron Shirt, or of course he can also choose to really put on a layer of Golden Bell Cover or Iron Shirt.

Analogously to soul defense, it is to add a layer of barrier directly in front of the soul.

Is it possible?

It is possible.

The solution to this problem lies in another direction, and the evidence is that there are spells that can directly kill souls.

Since these spells can kill souls directly, it proves that these spells can contact souls. Otherwise, how can they kill if they cannot interact with each other?

Since these spells can touch the soul, it means that when these spells take effect, the soul "in the eyes of these spells" is "substantial" compared to the illusory soul in common sense.

That's right! For these spells that can harm the soul, the soul is a different kind of entity.

Then, we can further infer that, conversely, compared to the soul, these spells are actually a kind of alternative entity.

To further infer, since these spells can harm the soul, they can actually serve as a defense for the soul!

To make an analogy, a fist, a brick, a knife, any object that can hurt the human body can become a defense for the human body when viewed from the opposite side.

This is easy to understand. A knife can certainly be used to defend against another knife.

Even a fist can be used to defend against a knife in front of the body.

The only difference between the two is the size of the defensive power. There is no difference in whether they can be used for defense.

Yes, since strengthening the soul like strengthening the body is not feasible under the current circumstances, why not change your mindset and draw inspiration from some methods that can harm the soul.

There aren't many ways to directly cause damage to the soul at present. The common ones include the Killing Curse, the howl of the Mandrake, and the Dementors.

The first two are too dangerous and not suitable for experimentation, but Dementors are just the right choice.

It does not have the instant death property like the Killing Curse, and there is no need to consider human rights or whether the method of experimentation is cruel. It is simply the ideal experimental material.

Dementors have another advantage: their Dementor's Kiss truly "only hurts the soul."

People killed by the Killing Curse will lose all their physical functions and will truly die, but people who are sucked to death by Dementors will enter a "permanent vegetative" state, which is truly "only killing the soul"!

Why Dementors have such excellent and unique "soul-body separation technology" is currently unknown to Sai.

In his imagination, since Dementors have such characteristics, it means that the "soul" can be separated individually.

If Sai could find a way to separate his soul and put it into a more sturdy and indestructible container, wouldn't that be a way of enhancing the soul's defense?

If you can really achieve this step, then there will be too many subsequent ideas to think about.

Therefore, Dementors are such lovely experimental materials, and simply finding a way to kill them is a waste of resources.

Without mentioning anything else, there is a way that is sure to kill the broken cloaks. They are physical entities and need to eat to survive. No other spells are needed. Just lock them up and don't give them food, and they will starve to death sooner or later.

The reason why Harry's side seemed powerless when facing the torn cloaks in the original trajectory was that they could only passively expel them and had no ability to capture and imprison them.

Or if they use powerful dark magic as recklessly as some dark wizards, the Dementors would not dare to be arrogant when facing them.

"Professor, do you know where I can find those skeletons covered in tattered cloaks?"

"Mr. Autumn, I have to warn you, use your abilities with caution!" Old Dumbledore said seriously, "Be careful, don't slip into the darkness!"

"Hey! Professor, your attitude towards me has been much worse recently, and even your patience has become worse!"

"I was deceived by you before," Old Deng seemed a little annoyed after realizing it belatedly, "It turns out that there is a crazy soul under your seemingly peaceful body!"

"Slander! You are slandering me! Professor, I am just a little obsessed with knowledge. Calling me crazy is a bit too much!"

Sai asked several more times, but in the end he did not get the result he wanted from Old Deng.

Old Deng no longer provided experimental materials. After weighing the pros and cons, Sai decided that it was not cost-effective to secretly go hunting outside the school now. In the end, he decided to be more careful during the experiment and to cherish the experimental materials for the time being to avoid unnecessary consumption.

Looking at the three experimental subjects hanging on the wall, Sai gritted his teeth and said, "But necessary consumption is inevitable!

Sorry, today is Wednesday, it’s you!”

Mr. Sai had long had a question: why should the Dementors obey the constraints of the Ministry of Magic, and why did they later cooperate with Voldemort?

He had long wanted to know whether dark magic could kill Dementors!

Then an unlucky guy was picked out and sent to a special black magic laboratory.

The big guy took out the wand, shook his hand and threw the silver ball in his hand, causing it to expand rapidly until the silver light contained both the Dementor and himself.

"Hey, the spirit monster knows how to be afraid, and it's not that arrogant!"

After Saiens entered the silver light prison, the Dementor did not try to come over to suck Saiens' happiness or soul, but quickly tried to move away from Saiens.

It turns out that they, too, know fear and have memories.

Sai didn't waste any time. While canceling the patronus, a thick, pale green light illuminated the black magic laboratory, as well as the pale face without facial features, like a corpse, under the tattered cloak of the soul monster.

The next moment, the gurgling sound in the Dementor's throat that was trying to resist immediately stopped, and it could no longer maintain its floating posture and fell directly to the ground.

Then its body began to weather. First the cloak turned into black smoke and disappeared. Then the pale body under the cloak shattered into ashes and then dissipated into the air.

very good!

Two conclusions:

First, Dementors can be killed by the Killing Curse!

Second, the Dementors' bodies probably don't have any entity like the flesh, and their bodies are probably composed of pure soul plus magic!
