Chapter 217 Unidentified Liquid (Add More)
After straightening out the power of "coercion" in his hands, a new round of many plans and calculations gradually took shape in Xie Lin's mind.
Time was getting tighter and tighter. It was already the end of March, and there were only three months left before Voldemort's resurrection.Schelling needed to make sure each piece landed in the correct position.
After thinking about this, Xie Lin turned his thoughts to the mystery of "absolute dominance".
According to Xie Lin's understanding, this should be an invincible magic. Once this trick is used, all witches will return to their hearts and all demons will kneel down.So--
Why are there still powerful enemies that Slytherin thinks he can't solve?Even if we don't say that this is just a fantasy figure that was unilaterally conjectured by Schelling, it is clearly written in the history books of wizards that Slytherin and Gryffindor once fought in public, and the two sides were evenly matched and tied.This battle is also the basis for why the four founders, who clearly have different ideas, were able to build the school together on an equal footing.
So the magic must have limitations that Schelling didn't quite understand.Certainly not the kind of magic that is absolutely invincible.
I was able to use such a terrible effect on Self, probably because there was a master-servant contract between the two, and Self, who was a servant, was born to be easily restrained by himself.
So, what kind of effect will it have if you face other people?
Assuming that Schelling's conjecture about "Slytherin's strong enemy" is correct, then this magic must be ineffective for people who are stronger than himself in some aspects. That aspect can refer to "personality strength" (that is, will and consciousness), or "spiritual power", or even "magic power level".
The Imperius Curse is a good reference.The Imperius Curse and "Absolute Mastery" are both magics that affect or even manipulate the minds of others. The difference is that the Imperius Curse uses extremely strong pleasure to deceive others' reasoning, making them willing to be driven and become a puppet, but the pleasure will fade with time. Sooner or later, the controlled puppet will be able to break free from the control of the Imperius Curse.
And the principle of "absolute dominance" is not relying on any emotion to deceive reason, but to completely distort a person's personality and change a person's cognition.Xie Lin can imagine that the subject who has been affected by this mystery will not know the fact that he is being manipulated, let alone remember his previous character and personality. It can be said that it is almost impossible to break free from control.
But no matter how different the two are, the success of the operation is based on the same premise——
It is necessary to invade the spirit and soul of the other party in order to erode, influence, and transform the mind of others.
It is not easy to do this. Even with the strength of Voldemort and Dumbledore, Snape cannot cast Legilimency, which is why he can be a double agent; even with the strength of Barty Crouch Jr., after trying a few times in class, he can no longer cast the Imperius Curse on Harry in the fourth grade.
According to the example of the Imperius Curse, Schelling has several inferences:
First, a person with a strong personality cannot be easily captured by the "absolute master".
Second, people with strong mental strength, or those who are proficient in Occlumency, also have a certain resistance to "absolute dominance"
Third, the so-called intrusion into the mind and brain is actually achieved by using an invisible energy mixed with spiritual power and magic power.That is to say, even if the opponent's mental power and personality strength are not enough to resist the "absolute master", as long as his magic power is strong enough, it is likely that the caster will need to increase the consumption of invading the mind and brain.
On the third point, "Absolute Master" is not as easy to use as the Imperius Curse.Because the "absolute master" needs to consume too much energy, the party that invades must have a lot more magic power consumption than the party that simply resists.Then this point needs to be paid attention to, in case one accidentally exhausts the magic power and fails to perform the spell, then it really can only be slaughtered.
Let's talk about the situation in the basin at the moment.
Dobby started to clean up the weeds and rocks on the ground with the elf's unique cleaning magic.While casting spells, it moved by apparating, and its busy figure can be seen all over the basin.Sharf, on the other hand, turned into a big snake and walked on the ground, trying to use the snake's sense of smell and perception to search the entire basin.
Just as Xie Lin just opened his eyes, there was an exclamation from the position of Sharfu.
Schelling quickly ran to where Sarff was, and Dobby had already appeared there.It turned out that when Selph turned into a big snake, she found a small hole under a rock. The size of this hole was just big enough for a giant python to get in, so Self went in. Self found a brand new mysterious crypt inside, and she hurriedly backed out to call someone.
Schelling let Dobby stay where he was, as a vigilante and a watchman.At the same time, he and Sharf turned into big snakes and got into the ground.
There is no cave under the ground.It is a space filled with powerful magic power fluctuations, and many protective magic circles are engraved around it, so that the breath here is isolated from the world, and half of the magic power fluctuations will not leak to the outside, so Xie Lin missed this cave with the magic eye before.And most people wouldn't just drill into a snake hole like Sharf did, so this crypt is extremely difficult for people to discover.
The crypt is not big, and it belongs to the kind that can see through every corner at a glance.
In the most central position, there is a stone platform, on which is placed a large emerald green bowl, which is filled with a dark black unknown liquid.
With Schelling's alchemy attainments, he just sniffed it closely. Although he couldn't see what it was, it was not difficult to see that the liquid should be a poison for the magic power in the wizard's body. It might not be fatal, but it could definitely make people lose their magic power in a short period of time.
Schelling guessed that the really important things should be hidden in the bottom of the bowl.It can only be obtained by drinking most of the poison. As for using magic to eliminate the poison, Xie Lin didn't even have the idea of trying. It is impossible for the famous Slytherin to make such a low-level mistake.
Huh?Why does this routine seem familiar?
It can only be said that Voldemort is worthy of being the last descendant of Slytherin. Are the two people's thoughts and actions so similar?
In fact, when Schelling thought about it carefully, this arrangement was actually quite reasonable.Whether it is Slytherin or Voldemort, both are in a sense the same kind of person, a person who prioritizes achieving goals and results, is unscrupulous, shrewd and cunning.In this way, their enemy, the person they least want to let the contents of the bowl be taken away, must be a person similar to Dumbledore and Gryffindor who values principles, speaks of benevolence and justice, and declares universal love.
This arrangement is quite effective for that kind of people, because they cannot let an innocent person take the risk of drinking poison, and their benevolence and moral standards do not allow them to do that.
But it's different when it comes to Sherin, who is also a Slytherin house.
Although Schelling was empathetic and compassionate towards his enemies, he was not a person who would get confused in such an important place.
Yes, he would never let anyone around him take this risk; yes, he would not even let Dobby, who was completely loyal to him, take this risk; he even doubted whether he had the determination to catch an innocent Muggle to drink this bowl of water.
However, this does not mean that he has no choice.
From the suitcase space he raised a man petrified into a statue.That was the first enemy in his life—Galup Lestrange.
With a flick of his wand, Gallup's petrification was undone.Gallup, who had lost his wand, was self-aware. He knew that he was a fish on the chopping board, and he had no intention of resisting at all.
This is also good, saving Xie Lin from using the Imperius Curse on him.
