Chapter 39 The Unforgivable Curse
Seeing the obvious interest on the Slytherins' faces, Moody raised a strange smile when he raised his lips - perhaps this could not be called a smile, and his scarred face was twisted violently because of this smile, and his eyes, which looked very evil.
"I think you already know very well that a wizard will not tell you what he intends in advance when he wants to cast an illegal spell on you." He limped back and forth on the podium, "Of course, he will not chant spells to you in a straightforward and polite manner. As Slytherin, I think you are used to being alert all the time. So, can anyone tell me which spells you know will be punished by the wizarding method?"
The classroom was silent, and no student even raised his hands.
From the expressions of Tom, we can see that most students actually know the answer to this question.
Sure enough, Moody continued, "Even if you don't want to answer, I know that you understand it in your heart. After all, your parents must have demonstrated the effect of this spell to you."
This sentence is a bit too much, and the Slytherins' eyes are already filled with anger.
Moody ignored the gazes from the students, bent down and opened the drawer under the podium, and took out a glass bottle from it.
Tom noticed that several students seemed to hold their wands tightly, trying to cast a few spells on Moody while his attention was not on them.
Fortunately, before they took action, they looked at Malfoy carefully. Malfoy calmly shook his head slightly at them.
Tom was still a little disappointed.
As a good student who respected teachers very much since childhood, he developed a similar disgust for professors for the first time.
His childhood upbringing does not allow him to make any moves to provoke Moody before he finds out Moody's strength.
Of course, if he just said a few angry words, he could still speak out.
He was unable to take action for the time being, and he also hoped that there would be a bold student to cause some trouble for Moody, the annoying professor.
"As a professor, I will always be vigilant while teaching you to be vigilant." Moody said, opening the glass bottle. "I am glad you didn't take your ideas into action just now, otherwise you will be the first students to taste my spell."
His magic eye was still turning wildly, and the normal eye swept over the students with small movements with unique meaning.
For some reason, Tom actually saw a hint of appreciation in Moody's eyes.
"Since that's the case, I will demonstrate to you that it has become the three unforgivable curses." He reached into the glass bottle, and three large spiders crawled around.
Moody's hand reached into the bottle disturbed the spiders. They tried their best to stay away from Moody's big hands, but one of them was still caught by Moody.
"Let me think about it, which one is better to demonstrate to you first?" He pretended to meet Malfoy who was looking at him coldly. "Soul-Snatching Curse! This is also a spell you are familiar with - many wizards claimed that they were under the control of the Soul-Snatching Curse, which made the Ministry of Magic busy..."
Tom certainly knew what Moody was referring to.
During the days when Voldemort was most powerful, many pure blood families became Voldemort's minions. They did a lot of sinful things for Voldemort, but after Voldemort fell, the people of these families claimed that they were controlled by the Soul-Take Curse.
Tom's eyes floated toward Malfoy.
Among them is Malfoy's current head of the family Lucius Malfoy.
At Tom's position, he could only see Malfoy's platinum blond hair, and he couldn't see what Malfoy's expression was now.
Moody placed the caught spider on his spreading palm, then pointed at the spider with his magic wand, murmured: "The soul is out of body!"
The spider changed his previous panic and stood up with two hind legs on Moody's palm, swinging his front legs up and down, and his hind legs jumped alternately, as if he was dancing a social dance.
Moody shook his wand, and the spider immediately spit out a thin thread, slipping along the thin thread, swinging around the thin thread, and doing many acrobatic movements.
The scene was so funny that Harry couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth and almost laughed out loud.
However, no one was laughing in the classroom, including Tom.
Harry, who was halfway through laughter, pressed down the corner of his mouth.
"Yes, yes..." Moody shook his wand again, and the spider returned to Moody's hand along the silk thread and was thrown back into the glass bottle by him. "It's much better than Gryffindor. They looked at it as a joke."
"So you all understand, what will happen if I put this on you, right?"
No one answered him, and even Harry's face changed slightly, realizing the seriousness of the matter.
Before, Tom only saw some words about the Unforgivable Mantra in the book. At that time, he completely pondered the reasons why these mantras were called Unforgivable Mantras, and now he fully understood.
At the same time, he also thought of the Kuro card he owned.
He used the "time" sign at King's Cross Station, and paused time in order to conquer the "未" sign.
He clearly remembered that at that time, the time at the entire station did stop passing, and everyone was frozen in place because of the "time" sign, even the wizard was no exception.
If Tom had the intention of harming people at that time, as long as he gently stabbed someone's chest with a dagger, then this person would have been unable to escape the scythe of death and would have died before he could sense any danger.
There is another "water" card.
Scientific research shows that the body's moisture accounts for about 65% of the body's weight.
But Rubellos once said that as long as Tom is willing, water anywhere can be mobilized by the "water" card within the range that Tom's magic allows.
What if Tom ordered the "water" card to drain the water in a person's body?
As Tom knows, as long as the human body loses more than 15% of the water, it will be in danger of life. So even a wizard who has been drained from the water instantly will have to be killed immediately, right?
Tom couldn't help but shivered, discovering for the first time how terrible the power he had.
Tom's actions seemed to be noticed by Moody.
He hummed with satisfaction and took out a second spider from the glass bottle.
"The second spell is also well known to you." Moody didn't care about the students who closed their mouths at all. "The famous Death Eater Bellatrix Lesterlanch used this spell to drive many people crazy - one of the victims and couples are still lying on the bed at St. Mungo Hospital."
