Chapter 921 "Defense Against the Dark Arts: Patronus Charm"
Professor Snape never woke up, and the old wizard Fiennes planted a spider on Snape's arm in a particularly evil way to maintain his body's activity.
The obviously juvenile giant acromantula was only the size of an adult's fist, and it looked milky white. There were many lines on the spider's body that gradually changed from pink to deep red, and it looked like a piece of moving jade.
Each of the acromantula's feet is so soft that it curls tightly around the arms like an octopus, and the bristles on it penetrate into the skin like a root system.
According to Professor Fiennes, these will grow under the skin like a plant with a root system, which leads to nerves, blood vessels, muscles and everything.
He also used the principle of the 'soul-moving curse' to explain the reasoning to Anton, saying that the baby acromantula is now the master of Professor Snape's body.
Just like a house will decay if no one lives in it, a body without a soul will naturally go into ruin.
"No need to worry at all!"
The old wizard patted Professor Snape's eyelids and observed for a while, washed his hands, and returned to his laboratory table, took out his wand and stirred the potion in the cauldron.
"Men, it's normal to be nostalgic for your first love. The more you can't get it, the more you think your first love is beautiful, and it's all cheap."
"But, quack quack, when there is no response to everything, men will always feel tired and tired, and they will return to reality honestly and keep their feet on the ground."
Anton listened to the old wizard talking about this with a strange expression, took a Muggle wafer from the plate on the table while he was not paying attention, and ripped open the jagged mouth on the plastic packaging full of nostalgia.
"The way to deal with it is very simple. It doesn't even require magic. Your "ray of sunshine" is useless at all. I have to come."
"The old way, find someone to chat with his corpse, and the soul will return to its place. Oh, it's the 'soul call' you mentioned before."
At this moment, the female werewolf, Gillian Nicklaus, put a barrel of potion ingredients on the laboratory table in the office, "Alex, do you see enough of these?"
Fiennes walked over to the bucket and pulled it a few times, "That's enough, I'll make him some nutritional potion to maintain his body's activity at night, and you can pour it into him every day."
Jillian wrung her pale white fingers with some confusion, and looked at Snape who was lying on the bamboo and rattan bed, "I don't know what to do, I can't help at all."
Fiennes shrugged, "No, you shouldn't say that, you are the most useful at this time, talk to Severus more, don't worry, he will wake up."
Gillian nodded vigorously.
"I hope he wakes up soon." Fiennes muttered something, walked back to his desk and sat down, flipping through a large pile of parchment filled with densely written words, "All Potions lessons are It's on me, damn it, I don't even have time to sort out the manuscript."
Anton picked up one curiously and looked at it, "What manuscript?"
"What else can it be, a new textbook." Fiennes glared at Anton in displeasure, "After the book "Wizards are Gods" you sorted out, school professors also wanted to compile their own textbooks."
"Originally, it's okay. Everyone just sorts out after class, and there is no rush at all."
"But there was too much movement in your cabin, and you mobilized your classmates to help, flipped through the materials, and asked the professor..."
"Anton, you don't even know that the school's owl shack was very busy at that time. Every day, little wizards sent letters home, and piles of books were delivered to the school."
"Then the textbooks of your 'evening school' are organized like this!"
The old wizard curled his lips, "Now, we professors can't be lazy, we can't let the students compete."
"Quack quack..." Anton was overjoyed, "It's rolled up!"
The old wizard grunted a few times in displeasure.
Although he and Snape became close friends who talked about everything, he also had his own opinions on the study of potions, and he didn't want to be compared by Snape.
Compared with Snape's Potions, which was closer to the modern magic system, the Potions of the old wizard Fiennes was more inclined to the ancient witchcraft secrets.
This is the difference brought about by his own learning process. The old wizard learned from the goblin Pedro who used him as a consumable since he was a child. After breaking away, he searched for some secrets scattered among the people. The materials are collected, heterogeneous, but self-contained.
In this way, he and Snape had a rivalry, and both wanted to write their respective Potions treatises that were ahead of their time.
In this regard, the old wizard Fiennes has great confidence.
He devoted his whole life to Potions, and finally achieved great success in the 'Spider Breeding Resurrection'. Although the approach is a bit cult, most of the medical problems that occur on the human body are no longer difficult for him.
Besides...
quack quack ~
Severus Snape, as always, was distracted by various affairs, and he was still so unfocused on Potions.
As if thinking of something, the old wizard walked to the front of the fireplace, drew out his wand, pointed at the stone relief above the fireplace, took out a book from a large pile of sundries carved on it, and threw it in front of Anton.
"Severus put it here with me, saying that if he ever dies, let me give you this book."
The old wizard raised his eyebrows, "I will treat him as dead now, hehe~"
Anton was stunned, and took a closer look. The book was made of the skin of some unknown magical animal, bordered with brass, and the title of the book was engraved with gold stamping in the middle——"Defense Against the Dark Arts: Patronus" Curse by Severus Snape.
Open the title page, it is written with gentle strokes—I dedicate this book to my dear apprentice Anthony Weasley.
Immediately, a wordless emotion throbbed in his chest, welling up in his heart and overflowing his eyes.
"Wow~"
Fiennes looked at Anton's expression with great interest, and exclaimed exaggeratedly, "I also gave you a book for this apprentice, but you were not moved at that time!"
Indeed, that book was The Living Body, by Fiennes and Snape. In addition to the "spider birth and resurrection technique" researched by Fiennes, there are also the "time and traces" of the second of the six soul elements that these two professors added to Anton's self theory. (587 chapters)
They published two copies of this book, one for Anton and one for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
It’s just that, there are too many black magic contents in that book, and it also contains a lot of cult contents that touch the taboo of life. Mrs. Pince stuffed it into the deepest part of the forbidden book area. A little wizard who usually travels at night can’t will patronize the corner.
Anton just raised his eyebrows at the cursing of the old wizard Fiennes and ignored him.
The masters and apprentices of their department, more or less have a bit of feud with each other, rubbing each other's things, they will only feel secretly happy, it's too late to snicker, and they are moved, moved a dick!
At that time, when Anton explained to the old wizard the theory of the self that he had worked so hard to study, the old wizard didn't seem to be moved at all.
Everyone, don't talk about anyone, quack quack...
In comparison, Professor Snape didn't owe Anton anything, but was called an 'idol' a few times, and he treated him with such heart and soul, how could people not be moved.
Anton held the book with some excitement, occupied the old wizard Fiennes' favorite recliner, faced the breeze and afternoon sun outside the window, drank the milk tea prepared by Jillian (the female werewolf), and ate Finns Si's snacks, looked up happily.
Although Lao Si is also a master of magic, he is obviously greatly influenced by Lily Evans in terms of spells. The theory of the Patronus spell is researched in the direction of 'love'.
In the ancient magic, based on the cruel external environment, the wizards gradually reached the peak in terms of killing, such as the Cruciatus Curse, the Gut Ejection Curse, the Bone Pulling Curse, and the Killing Curse, etc. all reached their peak.
But it is the fighting ability of these spells that is so powerful that many people ignore the positive research results of wizards on 'love' and so on for thousands of years.
Love is dedication to others, warmth to the whole world, and the cornerstone of the continuation of the human race.
In the book "Defense Against the Dark Arts: The Patronus Charm", Professor Snape quotes extensively from many sources, explaining the profound things in a simple way.
Anton pursed his lips, and looked at Snape lying on the bamboo and rattan bed from a distance.
Love is not just dedication.
Self-love is also the respect for the self-worth of human beings. I only hope that Snape can love himself more, wake up from this suffering, and welcome a new life.
He was not willing to revive Professor Snape directly. First, he chose to respect the other party's choice. Second, he also hoped that Professor Snape could break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly. Instead of roughly pulling him out of his cocoon, wasting this precious opportunity.
