Half an hour later, Dudley came out of the cell satisfied that he had obtained the information he wanted.
He has obtained the addresses of the wizards who have been cursed with oblivion.
Whether they can find it or not depends on the luck of these wizards.
Before leaving, Lockhart tried to make Dudley agree with his approach by saying, "No one wants to hear an old and ugly wizard's story, so let him spread it."
However, Dudley was not a child and would not be fooled.
Whatever his reasons were, it was not a reason for him to harm others.
He could have dealt with it in a softer way, such as buying the rights to these stories and adding the signatures of these wizards
As long as there are enough gold galleons, and with the dual blessing of fame and money, I believe many people will agree.
Too bad Lockhart chose another approach.
Because it is not my own experience, it cannot be used as a hype point, and it may not be able to attract so many readers.
Excessive greed was the cause and effect that led him to such an end.
He deserves it! it serves him right!
It was impossible for him to get out of Azkaban. Even if Dudley could do it, he would not do it. However, he could apply for an appropriate reduction of his sentence.
For example, now he has to spend a full ten years in Azkaban.
Dudley could reduce it to five years. If he wasn't crazy, he could still live a normal wizard life after he got out.
The premise is that these wizards who have been cast by him with the forgetting spell are still alive.
On the way back, instead of walking in a straight line, Dudley went in a circle.
He saw many prisoners in Azkaban, and the Data Eye scanned them one by one.
Years of living in Azkaban have tortured them to the point of confusion, their magic power has declined slightly, and their muscles have also shown signs of atrophy.
But as long as they can get out, they are still a destructive bunch of villains.
Finally he saw a man squatting quietly in the corner.
As if he had been played badly, his hair was disheveled, his face was full of beard, and his eyes were dull.
There was not a shred of will to survive in his body, and his whole body exuded an aura of decadence and decay. Even the Dementors disliked being near such a person.
Without happiness, there is no nutrition.
When passing by this man's cell, Dudley 'accidentally' lost a newspaper. The newspaper fell dangling in front of the man, with the Weasley family's winning photo on the front page.
Dudley did it very secretly. There was no other person around except the dementors, and the dementors couldn't speak, let alone tell the wizard.
After coming out of Azkaban, looking at the white paper with countless addresses written on it, Dudley chose the nearest location.
"I'll be busy next time."
If there is anything that is the fastest in the magical world, it has to be movement speed.
In the world of ordinary people, airplanes are nothing compared to apparation.
Of course, the premise is that you must know this magic and make no mistakes.
Dudley spent a whole week visiting the wizards one by one according to the addresses given by Lockhart.
Obviously, the process was not smooth.
Lockhart has a total of ten books in the series. Except for the selected collection "Gilderoy Lockhart Series", the remaining nine books were published ranging from 1 to 10 years. Counting his own The time span for compilation is even longer.
How about calling Lockhart a bastard?
This guy just steals and casts the forgetting spell. He doesn't care about how the wizards who have lost their memory will survive after he leaves. He doesn't even care about basic life.
When Dudley came over according to the address, either the building was empty and missing, or he had died long ago and turned into a handful of loess.
The wizards selected by Lockhart all have one characteristic. They are powerful but silent. Most of them have no desire for worldly fame and fortune and live like hermits.
The most critical point is that there are no descendants.
In other words, Lockhart is specifically targeting empty-nest old wizards.
According to the addresses in the first eight books, Dudley only found two old wizards. This was because the works they experienced were relatively early, so they had no problems for the time being. It was just that life was a bit miserable after losing their memory. After all, how could they even survive? I forgot about casting spells.
One is an old witch with a gaping mouth who drives away all the female ghosts, and the other is a bald old wizard who defeats vampires.
When Dudley found them, he was either picking up rubbish to eat, or he was dizzy from hunger and dying in a messy house.
'Lockhart is such a bastard'
Dudley temporarily housed them and planned to treat them one by one after finding them all.
Under normal circumstances, the counter-spell of the Forgetting Curse (forgetting everything) is the Revival Curse (memory recovery), but Lockhart's Forgetting Curse is special. After all, it is the only spell he is good at practicing all his life, and this guy is not easy. The two wizards' brains had already been damaged.
A simple resuscitation spell cannot restore them.
It must be treated with potions for continuous treatment. Even so, Dudley was not 100% sure.
Now, Dudley came to the location of the last wizard, a small village in the northernmost part of the town called Loha in New South Wales, Australia.
In the book "Wandering with Werewolves", Lockhart claims to have defeated the Wagga Wagga werewolf in America and restored him to his original state.
In fact, the old wizard was not in the United States, but a wizard in Australia.
"The person you mentioned should be there."
The local villagers were very enthusiastic in showing Dudley the way.
Well, in fact, they were not enthusiastic at all at first, and even wanted to snatch Dudley's belongings, but they became so enthusiastic after a friendly exchange with Dudley.
Dudley followed the location pointed by the other party.
It was a ramshackle thatched house, well, it could barely be called a house.
Slowly opening the door, the smell of decay and musty smell came to you.
Fortunately, Dudley was prepared and put on a homemade mask before opening the door.
The room was dark and no one seemed to be home.
Dudley pointed forward with his finger, and a ray of light shone through.
The room is not large in size, it only looks like one room.
Soon he spotted the old wizard.
A shriveled corpse lay on the bed.
The muscles on the body had dried, and it had obviously been dead for a long time.
"Alas" Dudley sighed softly.
Come a little late.
The book "Wandering with Werewolves" was written three years ago. It took three full years since I lost my memory. Coupled with my old age, death was expected.
It's a pity that with the death of the old wizard, the magic spell that could restore the werewolf was also lost.
Lockhart was guilty of the greatest crimes.
Dudley will definitely appeal to the Wizengamot after he returns, asking for a longer sentence.
Just when Dudley was about to bury the thatched house together with the old wizard, his data magic eye suddenly showed a prompt.
Dudley followed the prompts and looked
There seems to be a notebook not far from the old wizard's body?
The version I watched had Lockhart claiming to be the werewolf he defeated in America and restored him to his original form.
Original text: "Use your common sense and think about it. If people don't think that I did those things, the sales of the book will be far worse. Readers will not be willing to read about the deeds of an ugly old American wizard, even though he Freed a village from the scourge of werewolves."
