Chapter 120 Conjecture About Horcruxes

Mrs. Longbottom and Neville were waiting here on purpose.

Ten minutes ago, Neville seemed to have misunderstood Kyle's meaning. He did not go to find a healer, but after going downstairs, he started shouting that there was a werewolf and tried to get others to help on the second floor.

But no one believed him, even though they had just heard the noise upstairs.

Because werewolves do not appear during the day, which is the most basic common sense in the magic world.

And this is St. Mungo's, a place where talents are born in large numbers. Here, there are many people with brain problems. Just twenty minutes ago, someone claimed that he raised a dragon upstairs.

It's just a werewolf, not worth making a fuss about.

In addition, those healers did not believe the round-faced fat guy.

The reason why they appeared on the second floor was entirely because of another person.

- The curly-haired trainee healer who led Kyle through the passage was in the ward where the werewolf was at the time, and witnessed the whole process of the werewolf's transformation with his own eyes.

But fortunately, he was not bitten. Perhaps because the werewolf had just transformed and his mind was still confused, he was just slapped into the wall.

When he pulled himself out, he immediately contacted other colleagues in the unique way of St. Mungo and told them about the werewolves.

This is how the previous scene happened.

On the other side, Mrs. Longbottom hurriedly found Neville after learning about this. After learning about the incident from her grandson, the old lady immediately wanted to take Neville to thank him.

But they were a step late. When the two found Kyle, he happened to go to the sixth floor with the dean and Dumbledore.

Mrs. Longbottom simply took Neville to stand at the corner of the stairs and waited until they came down.

Afterwards, Mrs. Longbottom also invited Kyle to a ward on the fifth floor.

Neville's parents were there, lying on the hospital bed, looking at Kyle blankly.

"You saved Neville, and they want to express their gratitude to you."

Mrs. Longbottom turned her head to look at the bed, and said with a tremor in her voice: "Frank, Alice, the child is here."

But the eyes of the two still had no spirit, as if they did not hear Mrs. Longbottom's words.

"Child, don't mind." Mrs. Longbottom explained: "I can feel that they want to thank you in person, but they just can't express it."

While Mrs. Longbottom was speaking, Neville stood beside him, lowered his head, and seemed to have a strong interest in his toes.

But such behavior made Mrs. Longbottom very annoyed.

"Raise your head, Neville!" She said sternly: "You should not be ashamed of your parents' experience, you should be proud!"

"I didn't..." Neville retorted, although his voice was small, but very firm.

Then Mrs. Longbottom looked at Kyle again, straightened her back, and said proudly: "They were tortured crazy by the Death Eaters with the Cruciatus Curse... Those stray dogs wanted to force out where their master was, but they were wrong. The Longbottom family would never compromise with dark wizards!"

"Admirable..." Kyle stood in awe.

"You too, kid."

Mrs. Longbottom said: "Not many people can defeat a werewolf at such a young age.

I hope Neville can have such courage in the future, become an Auror after graduation, and revive the glory of the Longbottom family..."

She turned her eyes to Neville and suddenly frowned and said: "Keep your back straight, Neville, I've told you many times, keep your back straight!"

After leaving the ward, Kyle could still clearly hear Mrs. Longbottom scolding Neville.

He looked at Dean Sassia next to him and asked, "Can't the injuries caused by the Cruciatus Curse be cured?"

"It's difficult. Any problem involving the soul is difficult to cure. This is true for werewolves and the Cruciatus Curse."

Dean Sassia thought for a while and said, "The Cruciatus Curse not only brings them physical injuries, but also the pain of tearing their souls.

The body of a wizard is very fragile. It's like trying to piece together a broken mirror on a tight balloon. If you are not careful, the balloon will be punctured.

All we can do now is to barely piece together the prototype of the mirror, and wait for a more effective way to come out while ensuring that the balloon does not break."

"Just like the wolfsbane potion?" Kyle thought thoughtfully.

"That's right." Dean Sassia smiled and said, "What we are waiting for is the "wolfsbane potion" that can solve the Cruciatus Curse, and we have been working hard for it."

Kyle didn't say anything else and walked forward silently.

After mentioning the broken soul, he suddenly thought of the Horcrux.

Yes, the Horcrux... the most evil black magic item in the world invented by the despicable Helpo.

Kyle remembered that if you want to make a Horcrux, the first thing you have to do is to split your soul through killing, and then you can put it into the Horcrux.

What if the soul is in a split state from the beginning... can this step be omitted?

Just like the Longbottoms, their souls were tortured by the Cruciatus Curse and were broken into pieces. Doesn't it just meet the requirements for making a Horcrux?

Kyle fell into deep thought.

Since it is impossible to piece together a complete mirror on the balloon, wouldn't it be better to just take the fragments away?

A Horcrux is a very special thing. It is like an extra body, or a bridge, connecting those broken souls.

What's more interesting is that once this bridge is formed, each soul fragment will become relatively complete, which is why Voldemort did not go crazy even after six Horcruxes were destroyed.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that it can make a person achieve immortality successfully.

In this case, can the broken souls of the Longbottoms be made into Horcruxes?

After breaking the soul into pieces, don't we have to consider the problem of those fragments?

Of course, this is just Kyle's idea.

The problem now is that he has not read any books about Horcruxes, and his understanding of this aspect is limited to the superficial knowledge in his memory. He has no idea whether this is feasible.

Kyle subconsciously glanced at Dumbledore not far away.

The other party quickly noticed it and gave him a puzzled look.

Kyle quickly turned his eyes to the side.

Ask Dumbledore?

Forget it. He estimated that as soon as he said the word Horcrux, he would be hammered into the wall by the old wand, and it would be embarrassing if he couldn't get it out.

Since he couldn't ask, he could only look for it himself.

Kyle plans to look for it in the restricted books section after school starts.

It doesn't matter if he can't find it, there will be another diary next year.

As for the crown in the Room of Requirement... To be honest, Kyle doesn't want to touch it if he can.

It's too dangerous and it won't do him any good.
