The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

In the wizard tower.

Li Weide raised his hand and swept it across a temporary wooden wall.

Then, the place on the wooden board where his palm passed suddenly caught fire.

Li Weide breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of induction-triggered trap had finally been created...

This kind of trap is like an induction mine, which can be triggered immediately as soon as someone passes by.

With Li Weide's current level of magic and the little alchemy knowledge he learned from books, being able to do this is already the limit.

"Next..." Li Weide removed a bowl-shaped metal device from the wall and carefully inserted a small ball into it.

Wait until the sensor trap device is installed back on the wooden wall.

Li Weide immediately put on a mask and stood far away.

"start!"

Li Weide waved the wand in his hand, and a small cage covered with black cloth next to the wooden wall was opened.

A bluish-gray agile figure jumped out of the cage!

However, as the figure rushed out, it just passed by the wooden wall.

Immediately afterwards...

"puff!"

The trap was activated again! A cloud of reddish-brown gray mist instantly exploded from the trap!

"Clap!"

The agile figure immediately fell to the ground and lay motionless.

It was a Kneazle with blue fur and gray spots...

Levid had casually captured it from the Forbidden Forest using nightmare magic.

Only now, it has completely lost consciousness.

Li Weide nodded with satisfaction. This newly developed dung bomb was quite effective. Even magical creatures could be knocked out instantly.

And it was triggered very quickly, even the Kneazle couldn't dodge it with its speed and reaction.

"I don't know if there are any fire dragons in the Forbidden Forest. It would be great if I could have one to experiment with..."

If this potion can stun a fire dragon, then it can naturally stun a wizard!

Chapter 115 From today on, your name is Tom!

After finishing the experiment, Li Weide immediately cleaned up the laboratory.

These drugged dung bombs are very powerful. If they all explode by accident, he might have to sleep in the wizard tower for a century...

After carefully packing up the drugged dung bombs.

Li Weide looked at the cat-kneazle and wanted to put it back into the Forbidden Forest.

"Well... thank you for your contribution to my experiment. In that case, I'll give you a sweet dream as a reward."

Li Weide said this and gently tapped the cat-kneazle's head with his wand.

The next second, the cat-like creature's tightly wrinkled forehead immediately relaxed.

Even the corners of his mouth showed a hint of human smile.

This is also Li Weide's habit.

Whether it is making money from magical animals or conducting experiments on them.

After the end, each party will give the other a sweet dream as a reward.

It can not only train nightmare magic, but also comfort the little conscience that is left. In this way, it can also eliminate the negative effects brought by some black magic.

When you think about it this way, it seems like a good deal.

Li Weide let the cat-kneazle sleep there, and then turned his attention back to studying the "residues".

"This is really a kind of magic that makes people love and hate it..." Li Weide sighed.

After fighting with Annie, Li Weide had already obtained the approximate increase data.

Li Weide compared this data with Annie's previous data.

Anne's magic power increased by about one percent.

Don't underestimate this one percent of magic power!

This is an enhancement of the wizard's basic stats!

The subsequent increases in emotions, concentration, etc. are all built on this foundation!

After beating Tom and so many pure-blood wizards, Levid had already collected enough data.

Although Tom is now stronger than those little wizards of the same age.

But if we only test the strength of magic, with Tom's current good talent, his basic magic strength is only 1% to 2% stronger than those ordinary pure-blood wizards!

One percent of the intensity, combined with the enhancement of emotions, concentration and proficiency, this one percent of the intensity will be increased several times again.

After being forced into a desperate situation, Tom was suddenly able to cast a complete armor spell easily. This is the most powerful proof that emotions and concentration have an additional effect on the strength of magic.

Therefore, the change was so great after Annie increased her magic power by one percent.

Moreover, after feeling her strength grow, Anne's confidence made her magic even stronger.

In this way, she could even fully unleash high-level spells like Thunderbolt Explosion...

Li Weide suddenly remembered something.

That is, Tom was completely different after becoming Voldemort.

This is the aftereffect of many failed attempts at black magic transformation.

There was no doubt that although these black magic transformations had failed, they still resulted in a huge increase in his basic stats.

Otherwise, his magic power would not have suddenly become so strong.

According to the normal growth cycle, if Tom wants to reach the same magical strength as Dumbledore, he will have to accumulate at least a few more decades.

However, Tom, who was in his fifties or sixties, was already able to fight Dumbledore on equal terms.

In the battle at the Ministry of Magic, if Voldemort had not been too cautious and dared not fight to the death, it would be hard to say who would win or lose.

"It's a pity that this 'residue' is caused by negative emotions. It is harmful to the human body..." Li Weide said regretfully again.

Suddenly, Li Weide frowned, he discovered a blind spot.

At first, Professor Morgana discovered this "residue" simply because she wanted to help her father get rid of his sadness.

Later, she became addicted to the power this "residue" brought her, which is why she collected negative emotions in Hogwarts without restraint...

In other words…what if I didn’t start by extracting the residue with negative emotions, but with happy emotions?

"Hiss..." Li Weide became excited and immediately took out a ball of "residue" and began to study it.

But after a while, Li Weide's face was full of disappointment.

When Professor Morgana lost control, she wasn't limited to extracting negative emotions; she extracted all of people's emotions!

Whether it's sadness, happiness, anger...

People who have had all their emotions drained away temporarily become empty shells without any emotional fluctuations.

Many of the Hogwarts students at that time became like puppets... without any emotions.

That's why the professors at Hogwarts discovered Morgana's plan so quickly.

"Alas...what a pity!" Li Weide sighed regretfully.

At this moment, the cat-kin over there turned over in his sleep, with the smile still on his face.

The beautiful dream that Li Weide gave it filled its heart with joy...

"Wait..." Li Weide suddenly widened his eyes again, and he found the blind spot again.

A normal person, especially a student who stays in school to study miserably every day, will inevitably have mostly negative emotions!

In other words, the "residues" that Professor Morgana extracted from the students were mostly negative emotions!

This is also consistent with the results of Li Weide’s test just now!

So...if I just extract the happy emotion and make it into a "residue", what will the effect be?

Without the influence of negative emotions, then, would this "residue" still have the negative effect of distorting one's personality?!

Also, if it is just a simple feeling of happiness, can this "residue" still have such a powerful amplifying effect?

This new conjecture made Li Weide excited again.

Li Weide picked up the wand and planned to extract some happy emotions from himself.

But...if he doesn't feel happy, then that will have a certain impact on the research...

Thinking of this, Li Weide's evil gaze fell on the happy little kitten in the distance.

"Sorry, little kitty... I promise to give you two more sweet dreams, how about that?"

The peaceful face of the sleeping Kneazle was gradually covered by a dark shadow...

……

"I see..." Li Weide pulled out the "residues" in his body with some frustration.

But this time the "residues" were completely pure white, completely different from the previous ones that were black with red, or red with silver.

Overall, it feels completely different than the previous one.

Li Weide had also accidentally absorbed a small amount of that "residue" before.

As a result, the ancient magical power in his body awakened ahead of time.

When absorbing that "residue", one can feel a strange sense of pleasure caused by the sudden increase in strength.

However, hidden in this sense of pleasure is a strange sense of guilt.

This feeling of guilt is like the feeling of secretly doing something that makes you happy, and then being afraid of being discovered...

And now this new "residue" can also bring people a sense of pleasure.

However, this kind of pleasure is a very clean kind of pleasure, without any guilt.

It's like you just went to play a game of football, and the happiness you got is reasonable and legal...

Unfortunately, after testing, Li Weide discovered that this white "residue" only had a relatively limited effect on increasing a person's basic magic power.

It does not have as much enhancement as the previous "residues".

The reason is that there are all kinds of emotions left over from the past.

In other words, by strengthening oneself with this "residue," one can adapt to spells requiring a wide variety of emotions!

Because all kinds of spells and the emotions required are all contained in these "residues"!

And now this white one...seems to only be able to strengthen things like the Patronus Charm.

Because a single emotion is not as strong as a combination of emotions, this incomplete "residue" does not enhance the wizard's magic power as strongly as a combination of emotions...

"Comprehensive emotions..." Li Weide did not remain depressed for too long and started the experiment again.

This time, he used ancient magic to analyze the "residues" of that complex emotion.

Then he very patiently separated all the emotions inside, and roughly divided them into three major categories: joy, anger and sadness, and put them into three glass bottles respectively.

This work took him a long time...

Afterwards, he patiently divided the three major categories of emotions into almost identical quantities, and then extracted them again using ancient magic to form a new "residue"!

Within this remnant, three equally vast emotions were forcibly bound by ancient magic, forming a balance...

As soon as Li Weide extracted the residue, he felt its power.

In Li Weide's vision, if the amounts of these emotions are equal and maintain balance, they will cancel each other out and will not have any impact on the host's own emotions.

However, after Li Weide absorbed this "residue", he found that he did not get any increase at all!
