Gellert Grindelwald was born in 1882, one year younger than Dumbledore.
Calculated according to time, Grindelwald in 1991 should be 109 years old, which is already very old.
However, this is no ordinary place, but a fantasy magical world.
Wu Ming believes that as long as Grindelwald can still pick up the wand, he will still be the legendary mage he used to be.
"I don't know if this weird Dumbledore is still in contact with Grindelwald. If so, I really want to know what the two of them will say and whether they will recall their youth."
This thought flashed through Wu Ming's mind and he smiled evilly.
After smiling, Wu Ming threw away the unhealthy thoughts, picked up the book of the Dark Lord, and began to study it carefully.
In Grindelwald's books, the Killing Curse, the Imperius Curse, and the Cruciatus Curse are all very strange spells.
Among them, the Imperius Curse makes the person who is cursed feel extremely happy and willing to do anything for the caster.
However, this seemingly powerful magic does not depend on the magic power of the caster.
For example, the magic power of a legendary magician is at least ten times that of a great magician. However, when casting the soul-stealing curse, the casting effect of the great magician is exactly the same as that of a legendary magician.
It's the same soul-stealing curse. The magic power of the two is more than ten times different, but the effect is exactly the same. This is simply incredible.
Because in magic, it is almost a consensus that the more powerful the caster is, the better the magic effect will be. But here, the emergence of the soul-stealing curse completely breaks this perception. Instead, it is like a templated magic.
, the magic itself will not be strengthened due to any external conditions.
It's very strange, and also very speechless.
Wu Ming even suspected that the person who created this magic died before it was completely perfected, and the Imperius Curse left behind was only an incomplete version.
"In 1930, a mountaineering enthusiast accidentally broke into my castle in the mountains. I controlled him with the Imperius Curse to record the duration of the Imperius Curse. Unfortunately, I failed. This man had very strong willpower.
Tenacious. Every time the Imperius Curse is controlled, the effect will not last more than three hours, and the opponent will break free easily.
After that, in the same way, I began to capture ordinary people, low-level mages, high-level mages, and even great magicians for experiments. After hundreds of verifications, I found that resisting the Imperius Curse does not depend on strength.
It depends on the other person's willpower.
The effect of casting this spell on an ordinary person is essentially the same as casting it on a magician. On the contrary, as long as ordinary people have strong enough willpower, they can still resist this magic. And those who are not strong enough willpower can still resist this spell.
A great magician will be trapped in it and unable to extricate himself."
In this book, Grindelwald's analysis of the Unforgivable Curse is recorded in great detail.
Dense experimental records and post-experiment summaries almost fill a third of the book's pages.
Wu Ming looked at them one by one, and he found that the people with the strongest resistance to the Imperius Curse were actually not the mages who also possessed magical powers, but the elite warriors in human society.
The willpower of each of these elite warriors from various countries has been sublimated through training. Grindelwald stated in the book that many great magicians who enjoy comfort cannot resist the Imperius Curse.
Even if it lasts only a minute, using the Imperius Curse to control these elite warriors seems to have no effect.
"The way to resist the Imperius Curse is not your own magic power, but your willpower! I'm really curious, with my current will, whether I can resist the effects of the Imperius Curse."
Wu Ming was a little unsure, so he could only put it aside temporarily and look at the other two records of the Unforgivable Curse.
...the Cruciatus Curse...
The second Unforgivable Curse recorded by Grindelwald was the infamous Cruciatus Curse.
This magic is usually used to torture others.
This kind of painful torture originates from both the body and the soul. When the two are added together, even an iron-clad body will suffer pain and destroy the soul, directly turning into an idiot.
However, Wu Ming was not very interested in this magic at all.
It's pure torture and has no benefit at all except venting.
The Death Eaters on Voldemort's side like to use this method to create fear in others.
Wu Ming, however, prefers the Imperius Curse to make these people work for him instead of torturing them into idiots.
"The soul-stealing curse is a magic that directly affects the soul and is very useful to me. As for the Cruciatus Curse, you only need to learn it. I estimate that it will rarely be used in the future."
Wu Ming thought like this, turned back a few pages, and looked at the last spell.
In this black magic book, a total of three Unforgivable Curses are recorded, of which the Killing Curse is the last one and the most detailed one.
The Killing Curse, also known as Avada Kedavra.
In terms of the principle of magic, the effect of this magic is the same as the Imperius Curse, both of which are magic spells for the soul.
The only difference is that as the magic power of the Killing Curse increases, its destructive effect will be enhanced.
For example, if a senior magician uses a killing curse to attack a person, the result will definitely be a one-hit kill. However, if the attack is not a human, but a dragon with magic resistance, it is likely to only damage the dragon's body.
Soul, rather than a one-hit kill.
On the other hand, if the caster is a legendary mage and the magic used is more powerful, the effect of the killing curse will be increased, and even a dragon with magic resistance may be killed in one blow.
One's own magic power and the destructive power of magic are linked to each other in this magic.
This situation may not be obvious from low-level creatures, but it will be vividly reflected from high-level creatures with magic resistance.
Wu Ming must admit that he likes this magic, and he likes it very much.
Anyone who has played Heroes of Might and Magic 3 will be very impressed by the Bull's death gaze.
Here, the killing curse's fatal attack directly penetrates the skin and acts on the soul, which is very similar to the death gaze.
It also acts on the soul and is also an instant kill skill.
Wu Ming felt that if one day, his own magic power was powerful enough, perhaps, this magic would become so terrifying that it would even tear apart the throne of the gods and cut down the gods into the mortal world.
"We need to study the Killing Curse carefully. This magic has great potential for development. Well, we also need to study Harry Potter to see what Harry Potter's mother did to rebound the effect of the Killing Curse, thus killing
By Voldemort." Wu Ming thought of this, slowly closed the book, and planned to take it back to his room and read it carefully.
After taking a few steps, Wu Ming stopped again and searched for a few more magic books from the Harry Potter world in the library.
Unfortunately, in the world of Harry Potter, the inheritance of elemental magic is still cut off.
Here, although there are killing curses that attack the soul, there are also phantom migrations that act on space, and even potions with significant effects.
The elemental and even magic rune books that Wu Ming urgently needs are still not available here, which is somewhat regrettable.
