Chapter 305: This thing is much easier to use than a magic wand(2/4)
But Harry understood that without the spell, no matter whether he fired a gun or the arc jumped between the chandeliers on the ceiling above his head, there would definitely be a loud noise.
In about two or three seconds, when the electrical energy in the bullets was consumed, three huge copper chandeliers fell directly from the height and hit the ground and the surrounding hospital beds.
It is obvious that the metal rings holding these chandeliers have been completely softened by repeated lightning strikes.
Seeing the mess in the entire infirmary, Harry stared at the revolver in his hand, his mouth wide open and speechless in shock.
He couldn't believe in his dreams that all of this was the result of pulling the trigger once.
But in terms of lethality and destructive power, this thing is indeed much easier to use than a magic wand.
"Recover as before!"
"How? I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Zuo Si asked with a smile while casting a magic spell to restore everything to normal.
Harry nodded excitedly: "This thing is awesome! With it, if Voldemort comes to trouble again, I will give him a good beating. Thank you, this is the best thing I have ever received in my life."
A gift."
"You're welcome. There are twenty-three bullets here, I think it should be enough for you to use for a while. Also, promise me, no matter how much you hate Malfoy, you won't point this thing at his head, okay?"
”
Zuo Si also took the opportunity to make a small request.
"Hey, don't worry, although I hate Malfoy, I'm far from wanting his life."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Harry carefully put the gun back into the box and agreed without thinking.
While the two were talking, Madam Pomfrey walked in from the door at some point and urged with an unhappy look: "The visiting hours are over, it's time for you to leave. The patient needs to rest now."
"Of course, ma'am."
Zuo Si turned around and walked out without saying a word.
But before he could take a few steps, he heard Harry shouting from behind.
"Wait! Soth! I have another question to ask you."
"Oh? What is it?"
Zuo Si stopped and turned around to look at the savior lying on the bed.
This question was obviously relatively private. Harry didn't want Madam Pomfrey to be around, so he gave Madam Pomfrey a pleading look.
The latter hesitated for a moment and quickly said: "I'll give you five more minutes."
After that, she left the ward and disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Watching the respected school nurse walk away completely, Harry asked in an uncertain tone: "Do you know about house elves?"
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Of course I know. They were originally a very powerful race in ancient times.
But later, a war broke out with the wizard, and they were eventually slaughtered mercilessly. Only a handful of docile cubs were kept as slaves.
And these cubs are the blood source of house elves.
Through magical intervention and domestication from generation to generation, these little things gradually become servile and extremely loyal to their masters, making them the most ideal servants.
However, their number has never been large, and they cannot be bought with money. Only those pure-blood or mixed-blood families with a long history have them.
To put it simply, house elves are equivalent to slaves in the magical world. Both their life and personal freedom are completely under the control of their master."
"You mean... house elves usually only act according to their master's orders?" Harry frowned.
"That's right. For house elves, serving a family and its master is a supreme honor. Any house elves who are expelled for making mistakes will not only be spurned by wizards, but also despised by their own kind.
." Zuo Si replied straightforwardly.
"Then are there house elves who secretly take some actions behind their master's back?" Harry asked in an uncertain tone.
Upon hearing this, Zuo Si immediately realized that this was the visit of the Malfoy elf named Dobby, and said in a slightly playful tone: "Generally speaking, this situation is very rare, but it does not mean that
No. After all, there will never be a shortage of outliers in any group. In addition, if there are such house elves, I suggest you pay more attention."
"Why?" Harry blinked in confusion.
"Because all the ancient wizard families in the entire magical world will not like the existence of such a house elf. Because no one knows whether its deviant behavior will spread like a spark among other house elves, eventually leading to
A large-scale resistance and uprising, and even a war that spread to most of the magical world."
Zuo Si very clearly pointed out the particularity of Dobby.
Because this is the only house elf currently who is not willing to be enslaved and has made a substantial act of resistance.
Although in the eyes of many people, this kind of resistance is just a tiny spark, it is still far from being able to make a big splash.
But he knew that the large-scale withdrawal of slavery from the stage of history was caused by the ignition of these small sparks to form a prairie fire.
If Lucius learns of this, he will definitely give Dobby a set of Cruciatus Curses, then behead him and make a specimen to warn other house elves in the manor.
Yes!
There is not only one Dobby in the Malfoy family, but several house elves serving him.
Harry obviously did not understand the complex interest entanglement behind it. He just raised his head and asked: "But they are just fighting for freedom. What's wrong with that?"
Zuo Si explained with a playful expression: "Think about it, if those ancient families lost the service of house elves, they would have to clean the house, cook, wash clothes, mow lawns and gardens, and clean up all kinds of pests by themselves.
How can we maintain a decent life and the sense of superiority of a pure-blood family?
Remember, Potter, not the right thing in this world will necessarily win the support and recognition of everyone.
More often than not, what people actually care about are tangible benefits.
When you can bring huge benefits to some people, even if it is wrong, they will choose to support it without hesitation.
On the other hand, if you infringe on the interests of some people, even if it is right, they will do their best to stop and destroy it.
As slaves in the magical world, the existence of house elves is the best example.
If you want to change all this, the first thing you need is strength, a force strong enough to crush all opposition."
"Like Voldemort?"
Harry made a shocking statement.
In fact, due to the Horcrux, his thoughts, personality and many aspects are often inevitably affected by it.
If someone else heard this sentence, they would probably faint on the spot.
But Zuo Si touched his chin and responded with interest: "Yes, just like Voldemort. Although his methods and the theories he advocated were wrong, he used strong power to subdue opponents and promote his ideas.
It's a good choice. Well, that's the end of today's conversation. I don't want to be driven away by Madam Pomfrey a second time."
After saying that, Zuo Si turned around and left the infirmary, and after a while he disappeared near the stairs leading to the lower floor.
As for Harry Potter, he was lying alone on the hospital bed with a thoughtful expression on his face.
……
As Zuo Si reappeared in everyone's sight, many Hogwarts students fell into a fanatical personality cult for him.
After all, it was an almost crushing defeat of the Dark Lord and his most powerful and loyal Death Eater, and he single-handedly dispelled the dark clouds hanging over the British wizarding world.
This record alone is enough to make him a hot star.
In addition, students at Hogwarts are just in their teenage years and are most likely to develop idols and power worship.
So no matter where Zuo Si goes, he will always be followed by a group of boring guys who want to observe and imitate his words and deeds.
If he hadn't exuded a cold and unapproachable aura, he would have been surrounded by ardent fans.
Especially the "little snakes" of Slytherin House looked at Zuo Si with admiration in their eyes.
After all, he was the first person in this world who dared to say to his face that Voldemort was a coward and a good-for-nothing.
Even the number of students taking the elective course on making magic scrolls has skyrocketed because of this, and the seats are packed almost every time, which is in sharp contrast to Snape's temporary and lifeless Defense Against the Dark Arts course.
As for poor Gilderoy Lockhart, although he was not completely sucked dry by Voldemort's Horcrux - the diary and died, his body has become extremely weak due to long-term erosion by dark magic, and he is currently lying in the Holy Light.
Ge is unconscious in the bed of Magic Injury and Injury Hospital.
According to the attending physician, it is very likely that he will never wake up again in his life.
Of course, thanks to Lockhart's contribution, Zuo Si has completely mastered the method of making Horcruxes and the complex principles behind them.
In this way, in peace and tranquility, Christmas arrived as scheduled.
Since the Horcrux had been eliminated in advance and the Basilisk was hidden by Voldemort, the atmosphere in the school was no different from before.
Most students have signed up to go home and plan to spend time with their parents and relatives.
Even Harry, who originally wanted to stay in school, was prohibited from signing the stay list by Snape using semi-coercive means.
The only regret that Zuo Si felt was that without the basilisk attack in the original plot, Hermione would naturally not be able to prepare the polyjuice potion and then transform into that cute Catwoman form.
For Furikong, this makes him feel more inexplicably excited than the normal human form.
Maybe...
