Chapter 1467 Demon Knowledge

"Let's talk about demons." Harry said, in order to prevent Hermione and Ron from arguing again, he tried to change the topic, "By the way, Ivan, haven't you seen demons before? It's you and Sirius , Hagrid and the others went looking for giants. Tell us in detail, what does a demon look like?"

"The forms of demons are different. They have no fixed form and appearance. The last time I saw the demon in Dijon, France, it was a witch hundreds of years ago, but when I saw it, it had no human beings. form."

"Is that a ghost?"

"It's much scarier than ghosts." Ai Wen said, "Well, how do you describe it? You can imagine the appearance of a devil, which is what you think the devil looks like. Its skin is cold gray and white, and sharp thorns protrude from its mouth. Fangs, black horns on the head, deformed claws on the hands, and..."

"Terrible." Elaine said, she hadn't heard Ivan talk about this experience yet.

"Yeah, it's scary!" Aiwen said, his memory went back to that night, recalling the ghost wandering in the owl castle, the weird and cunning skeleton, the mirror with the devil and the sad past and emotional disputes , "In short, it is a disgusting guy. But what is really scary is not the devil, nor the powerful magic or power it possesses, but the human heart."

What impressed Ai Wen in that experience was not the demon, but the love triangle full of hurt and lies.

A wizard who is kind on the surface but twisted to the extreme in his heart, a devil witch who is so vicious that he can kill his own parents without hesitation, and a witch doctor who poisons everyone in the entire castle, Shu Keria, she is the victim, but she is also the murderer.

The human heart is the scariest thing, it is as dazzling as the noon sun, making it impossible to look directly at it.

Devils, devils and all that, are nothing but ugly incarnations of the human heart.

Because it has an entity, it is no longer so scary, because it can be defeated and eliminated.

"People's hearts?" Elaine repeated, and said directly, "I don't understand, it's so complicated."

"It's very complicated, and I can't explain it clearly." Ivan said, seeing Elaine staring at himself intently, remembering the fate of not explaining how to become a real vampire last night, he hurriedly added, "Actually , you can ask Dumbledore later, I think he should be able to explain clearly what is the human heart."

"Forget it, I'm not too interested in these things, it sounds like I can't eat them." Elaine shook her head.

"I'm curious, how are demons born?" Hermione asked.

"Different demons are born in different ways. There are many methods, but they all involve the demon altar, which is the core item for summoning demons." Aiwen said, "Through the demon altar, wizards can transfer people, objects, names, souls, and even It is the product of a thought that transforms into a demon, a supernatural being with infinite life and physicality, and lets them do things for them."

"That sounds good." Ron said, "A powerful demon servant who can help accomplish what you want."

"Many ancient warlocks and wizards did this. They gained power and success by raising demons." Aiwen said, "The most famous one should be King Solomon and his seventy-two demon gods, no matter in Muggle He is well-known among wizards."

"That's right, King Solomon! Then how do you build a demon altar?" Ron immediately asked, "Is it difficult?"

"Then I don't know. Demon magic was once prosperous in ancient times, but it has completely declined now. Even if there is inheritance, it is taboo black magic, very evil." Ivan replied, "As for summoning The difficulty of demons, I think as long as you master the accurate method and various materials, it should not be too difficult, it mainly depends on what kind of demon you want to summon."

If he wanted to summon a demon like the Seventy-two Pillar Demon God, he might not be able to do it even if he was exhausted.

But the summoning they were about to make later, the demon in house-elf form, wasn't very difficult.

Alvin has researched it many times, and all he needs is a dead house elf and some magic power.

In fact, he does know how to build two demon altars.

They are all black magic recorded in the book "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Black Magic". Ivan has studied it several times, and the difficulty is not too high, but since it is recorded in this kind of magic book, one can imagine the specific casting process and the required How wicked is the material.

It's completely forbidden like making Horcruxes, so it's better not to say it.

Because we have talked about related topics many times before, soon, everyone has nothing to say.

They descended the stairs, their footsteps echoing in the empty castle.

The murals on the walls on both sides are empty, and the portraits don't know where they went.

Everyone was nervous, and the silence around them gave people the illusion that there were only five of them left in the castle, and the downward stairs seemed to have no end.

Ten minutes later, they came to the picture of a huge fruit bowl in the stone corridor in the basement.

Dobby didn't scratch the green pear in the portrait, that was the way into the kitchen.

He just stretched out his finger and tapped on the edge of the portrait, and the pear began to change, revealing a low, dark, and deep hallway.

Except for Elaine, Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Ron have all been to the kitchen many times.

Ivan accompanied Hermione to preach, and Harry and Ron sneaked out in the middle of the night to find food.

They went in one by one, and soon, they were surrounded by a group of noisy house elves who rushed out of nowhere, asking what food they needed.

Hundreds of house-elves crowded together, no matter how many times you look at it, it is shocking.

But immediately, when they saw that the person who came was Hermione, they all showed terrified expressions on their faces, disappeared in an instant, and hid.

"Am I that scary?" Hermione said angrily, "What are they running for?"

"Miss Granger is not scary at all. Dobby thinks that Miss Granger is the best wizard, second only to Master Irwin and the wizard of Harry Potter." Dobby said immediately, "Dobby knows, other The elves just haven't gotten used to it yet."

Hermione had been hard at work sewing sweaters for some time to give to the house-elves in the kitchen.

This probably frightened them, and although she has stopped doing it now, the terrible impression left cannot be reversed in a short time.

Hermione was probably the only one in Hogwarts who could make so many house-elfs turn and run in fear.

In the eyes of these house elves, Hermione, who is dedicated to protecting their rights, is probably a demon.

The four of them walked through the corridor and entered the kitchen. The layout here was exactly the same as the auditorium above.

Dumbledore was sitting contentedly at the Gryffindor long table, with a cup of steaming coffee and a dessert "toffee finger cake" in front of him, surrounded by many house elves from a distance , looking at him in awe...
