The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

Perhaps, if he is given enough time, he will eventually be able to clear his mind.

But now, he doesn't have much time...

The sun was setting in the west, and Li Weide slowly opened his eyes. In the end, he chose to give up.

Let's prepare tonight, take Toby and quietly run away with the bucket.

As for the reason for leaving... I'll think about it after I get caught...

Li Weide stood up from the recliner tiredly.

At this time, Professor Hicks was explaining the basics of Transfiguration to the studious Tom.

"...When you transform an object, you don't need to imagine every detail of it..."

"For example, if you want to turn a goblet into a bird, you don't need to construct all the details of the bird in your mind."

"If you have to imagine the shape of every feather, then a simple transfiguration would be exhausting."

"We just need to picture the bird in our minds when transforming. As for everything else, we can leave it to the magical power. The magic will naturally help the wizard achieve his wish."

Hicks was talking about the basics of Transfiguration, which Levitra had already read in "The Complete Guide to Transfiguration," but...

"...leave everything else to the magical magic..." This sentence now struck Li Weide's mind like a thunder!

Li Weide suddenly realized, yes... I am a wizard, I have magical powers, and brain occlumency is magic! It is not some kind of meditation!

I don't need to rely on my mind like a Muggle to clear my mind of distractions. That's not a state that can be achieved in a short period of time! My practice method was wrong from the beginning!

In fact, as a wizard, he only needs to leave everything to the magical magic, and the magic will naturally help the wizard achieve his wish!

Because magic is inherently idealistic!

Thinking of this, Li Weide, who had just stood up, stretched and lay back down...

Chapter 27 For the Greater Good!

The magic system of this world is idealistic.

The use of each spell reflects the wizard's emotions and intentions at the time.

So, in the final analysis, the essence of magic in this world is actually a certain degree of "wishes coming true".

Therefore, truly powerful wizards often do not need to use spells to cast spells.

Of course, when they recite the spell, their emotions and thoughts will reach the highest level, and the power of the magic will be enhanced to the greatest extent.

For example, Tom who uses the Future Killing Curse as a basic attack...

However, for Tom at that time, reciting the Killing Curse loudly not only enhanced the power of the spell, but also served as a deterrent to others.

At this time, Li Weide was lying on the recliner and entered the same meditative state as before.

But this time, he did not deliberately try to gather his messy thoughts, but silently felt the "energy" called magic in his body in his heart.

"I need inner peace and a mind free of distractions." Li Weide thought.

Then, he felt that the magic power in his body seemed to move, but also seemed not to move.

Just when Li Weide was about to try again, he suddenly felt a calmness in his heart, and all his distracting thoughts disappeared in an instant!

It was a strange feeling, like being in a busy city and suddenly all the sounds around you disappeared. Everything became quiet, leaving only the sound of your own breathing and heartbeat.

Li Weide felt all these changes in amazement, but then he felt a little strange.

I'm clearly still thinking, so why is my heart free of distractions? Isn't this a contradiction?

It’s like someone is testing your breath and finds that you are not breathing at all, but you can clearly feel that you are breathing!

Why can't others notice that they are breathing?

It didn't take long for Li Weide to figure out the reason.

It turned out that his distracting thoughts did not disappear, and his thinking did not stop.

They're just hidden!

Why is this so?

Because magic can fulfill the wizard's wishes.

Therefore, in order to help Levid achieve his wish of having a mind free of distractions, Levid's magic had to hide the distracting thoughts that he could not get rid of at all.

Then he helped Li Weide create a brain without any memory or any trace of thinking, replacing the original brain.

In other words, the memories and thoughts presented in this fake brain are what Li Weide needs others to see, and they are all false.

The real brain is locked behind the door.

It was not until this moment that Li Weide truly understood the operating principles of brain occlusion and successfully reached the first stage of brain occlusion.

That is to hide all your memories and true thoughts.

Without much delay, Li Weide began the second stage of his attempt.

He began to expand the size of his new "brain," allowing the false thoughts and memories to tightly wrap around his real thoughts and memories.

Then, Li Weide began to try to communicate the two "brains" of falsehood and reality.

Then, the false thoughts and memories created by the real brain are secretly transmitted to the fake brain...

At this moment, the rigid false thoughts and memories in the fake brain suddenly became active!

It’s exactly the same as real memory and thinking!

In other words, Li Weide can now change the memories and thoughts in his mind at any time.

What others can see is only what Li Weide wants them to see.

I don’t know how long it took, but when Li Weide opened his eyes, the sky was completely dark.

After carefully feeling his own condition, Li Weide felt extremely satisfied. There was no doubt that he had really learned the art of brain closure.

That feeling... is a little hard to describe.

It's like putting on a pair of sunglasses.

When others want to look into my eyes, they can only see the dark lenses, but my eyes can see others normally through the lenses...

Although he had only just begun to master the art of occlumency, it was more than enough to deal with Quinina's passive Legilimency.

Thinking of this, Li Weide couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Are you awake? You slept for such a long time." Tom looked at Li Weide suspiciously.

He almost thought that Li Weide had fallen asleep.

"Oh, I stayed up late reading last night, so I'm very tired today."

"But didn't you go to bed early last night?"

"I couldn't sleep, so I read a book." Li Weide said casually.

At this time, Toby had already brought over the dinner specially reserved for Levitra.

"Wade, you'll get used to it slowly. I was the same before. Whenever I went to a new place, I couldn't sleep because I wasn't used to it." Professor Hicks said with a smile.

She still felt that Li Weide couldn't sleep at night because he was not used to it.

"Well, I'll try my best to get used to it." Li Weide nodded seriously.

Li Weide suddenly discovered that after mastering the art of occlumency, his acting skills seemed to have improved.

The fake expression, coupled with the appropriate fake emotions, is simply perfect...

Occlumency can bring this kind of boost to acting.

No wonder the future Professor Snape was able to act as a spy under Tom's nose and never reveal his identity until the day he died.

Li Weide, who hadn't eaten much all day, was indeed hungry.

After wolfing down his dinner, he told Professor Hicks again that he felt tired and wanted to rest.

Tom looked at Li Weide as if he were looking at a pig.

Who sleeps that long every day?

This guy suddenly became so lazy. Isn't he afraid that my strength will surpass his and he will take revenge on me?

However, what Tom didn't know was that Li Weide's statement about being sleepy last night was fake, but his statement about being sleepy now was real.

He had put a lot of energy into learning Occlumency and really needed a good rest.

After closing the door again, Li Weide sat on the bed and opened the system mall.

He didn't have time to look at it last night. If he doesn't look at it now, if there is anything good in it, it will be refreshed in the early morning.

[Product 1: Fuling Agent 10ml (Unlocked) 500 Merit Points]

[Item 2: One unicorn hair (unlocked) - 5 merit points]

[Refresh time countdown: 5 hours, 21 minutes and 55 seconds]

Merit Points: 100

Dark Lord Achievement: Not Achieved

Li Weide saw the bottle of Fuling potion at a glance.

This is good stuff!

After taking it, it can increase people's luck! Moreover, it is also very difficult to boil.

Even for a potion master, to guarantee the success rate, it would take at least half a year from the beginning to the finished product!

Li Weide really wanted to buy the Fuling potion. It would be very good whether for his own use or to sell.

But now there are not enough merit points, so Li Weide has no choice but to lock up the Fuling potion first.

As for the other product, unicorn hair, Li Weide did not waste any merit points.

After closing the system store page, Li Weide gradually felt a strong sense of sleepiness.

The side effects of the energy potion, coupled with the excessive consumption of his own energy, made Li Weide unable to bear it anymore and soon fell into a deep sleep.

……

This was a very restless sleep. Li Weide felt as if he had come to a very strange place.

The place was covered in white, as if it was shrouded in fog.

And in the fog, there was a black shadow whose face could not be seen clearly waving at him, and the black shadow's lips were moving, as if it was saying something to him quickly.

Unable to hear the black shadow's words clearly, Li Weide couldn't help feeling anxious. He staggered forward with his legs that had become very heavy for some reason.

Suddenly, Li Weide accidentally tripped over something, and everything around him began to collapse and disappear, and the black shadow also gradually disappeared...

Li Weide wanted to ask who he was, but was surprised to find that he couldn't open his mouth!

At this moment, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind.

Just as he turned his head to see who was calling him, everything in front of him suddenly disappeared.

Toby's horrified expression suddenly appeared in front of him...

"...Master Wade! Wake up! Master Wade has to go! Toby has to take Master Wade and Master Tom away! Someone...someone is attacking us!"

Li Weide suddenly woke up, and at the same time, noisy sounds outside the house came in!

There were crackling sounds of spellcasting, as well as various shouts and slogans...

There was one line that Li Weide found particularly familiar—"For the greater good!"

Chapter 28 Desperate Situation

In this world, people can fight and shout slogans fanatically at the same time, and what they shout are "for the greater good."

There was no one else except the fanatical Wiccan saints under Grindelwald.

Levid didn't have time to think about why Grindelwald's men came to his door.

"Where are Tom and Professor Hicks?" Li Weide looked behind Toby.

Then he saw Tom lying quietly on the floor behind Toby, looking particularly peaceful.
