"Dudley, is this the advanced magic you're talking about?"
Hermione looked at Dudley with suspicion. At this time, Dudley was sitting lazily on a chair, holding a book in his hand, a book to be precise.
A very familiar one.
Author - Gilderoy Lockhart
"What Lockhart wrote is also worthy of being called advanced magic?" Hermione emphasized again.
It was the consensus of the disciplinary team that Lockhart was a loser.
All kinds of useless operations in Hogwarts, being killed by Neville in a duel, having sex with students, these black spots can never be cleaned away.
"No, although it was written by him, the content is indeed adapted from real deeds, but the protagonist is not him."
Dudley slowly put down the book and said seriously.
The title of that book - "Wandering with Werewolves"
The Aurors of the Ministry of Magic took him away because of the moral issue of "a professor having a relationship with a female student". Unexpectedly, he reacted so violently that he was charged with assaulting an Auror. Logically speaking, even so, he His position can be settled by spending a few galleons.
However, the Aurors soon discovered that things were not as simple as they thought.
After an interrogation, Lockhart broke through the defense and confessed the facts of his crime.
He stole the experiences of other wizards and used the Oblivion Spell to make them forget everything.
"Lockhart attacked those wizards? Stealing their work?!"
After hearing Dudley's story, Hermione gritted her teeth and said, "What a hopeless bastard."
If there's anything worse than plagiarism, it's taking something from the original author and silencing him.
"So he's in Azkaban. That's the punishment he deserves."
Dudley tapped the cover of the book with his knuckles.
"The deeds in the book belong to other wizards and are not fabricated out of thin air."
"The wizard in this book defeated the werewolf, and not with wolfsbane potion, but with magic spells."
Dudley emphasized on the Wolfsbane potion.
"Oh my God," Hermione exclaimed.
Apparently she came to her senses.
So far, in the wizarding world, the only way to restore a werewolf's sanity and turn into a human form is through wolfsbane potion. If Lockhart's description is true, it means that a magic spell can be used to restore sanity to a werewolf.
Not all werewolves are voluntary; most are forced to become werewolves.
For example, some malicious spread of werewolves.
These werewolf wizards cannot integrate into the normal wizard camp. They lose their minds and transform at least once a month, which will scare away most wizards. In most cases, they will be forced into the camp of dark wizards because of life, and a few will not do either. Join and wander in the gray area until you die alone.
The only antidote, Wolfsbane Potion, is a very expensive potion. The high production process requirements and expensive raw materials are the main reasons that make it difficult to find a bottle of Wolfsbane Potion.
The most important point is that most werewolf wizards are poor.
No werewolf wizard would be willing to buy a bottle of wolfsbane potion at a high price just to suppress the transformation once a month.
If this magic spell can be found, it will definitely be good news for these people.
Good for the whole wizarding world.
"I think I should meet the former Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."
Dudley said that he wanted to learn this spell.
Azkaban is the highest level prison for prisoners in the wizarding world. It is located on a small island in the cold waters of the North Sea. It is a wizard prison on an isolated island far away from the crowd.
He is guarded by a group of terrifying creatures called dementors who live by sucking the souls of others.
Compared with the clear skies in other sea areas, the sky above Azkaban is always covered with dark clouds, which looks very eerie.
Dudley came to this island by boat.
"Mr. Dursley, we can only send you here. The place ahead is where Lockhart is being held."
The nominal jailer of Azkaban said on the boat, looking at the small island not far away with lingering fear and the black robes flying in the sky.
Even normal people can go crazy if they stay in Azkaban for too long.
Azkaban is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic. In fact, the Dementors and the Ministry of Magic are not affiliated, let alone cooperative.
The Ministry of Magic is only responsible for throwing prisoners on this island, specifically guarded by dementors.
Rather than saying that the Ministry of Magic hired dementors, it was better that the Ministry of Magic fed the dementors.
Of course, an agreement was also signed between the Ministry of Magic and the Dementors. Dementors could not leave Azkaban for no reason, and Dementors could not attack people from the Ministry of Magic.
"I see."
Dudley didn't care about the dementors in the sky and walked directly towards the place where Lockhart was imprisoned.
Soon, he came to a cell, where a gray-faced man was staying inside.
Lockhart.
Lockhart was in very bad shape after being imprisoned in Azkaban for a while.
According to the jailers, Lockhart was particularly popular with the Dementors.
It seems like he had a lot of pleasant experiences.
Happiness is dementor food.
"My dear Professor Lockhart, you look terrible. I think your new book should be changed from Hogwarts and Me to Azkaban and Me."
"Maybe it will be unexpectedly popular."
Dudley's voice caught Lockhart's attention.
After seeing that it was Dudley, Lockhart rolled and crawled to the cell, as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
"Mr. Dursley, help me!"
It was obvious that Lockhart had endless memories of his time in Azkaban, and it made the child very excited.
"I think we should talk about a deal."
Dudley took out a few books from his pocket and handed them to Lockhart.
"I need you to tell me about these wizards whose memories you erased."
Each of Lockhart's books represents his erasure of a wizard's memory, and every wizard here has proud experience and strength, and their experience is what Dudley values.
Don't expect anyone from the Ministry of Magic to find and cure these wizards
I'm afraid it will be useless to wait until the flowers wither when the Ministry of Magic is doing something.
"I tell you, I tell you everything. As long as you can save me, I will tell you everything."
Lockhart said with runny nose and tears.
At this time, he no longer cared about image issues, he just wanted to get out of this damn place.
Dementors were so terrifying that he vowed to write a book specifically about them.
"Professor Lockhart, I think you have made a mistake. I am not consulting with you."
"Although it is a transaction, only I have the final say on the content."
Dudley patted Lockhart on the shoulder.
"You have no bargaining power and you can say no if you can bear the consequences."
"pain."
Lockhart fell to the ground and twitched as if he'd been electrocuted.
Dudley just stimulated his pain nerves.
"You don't think I'm kinder than a dementor, do you?"
