The Grey Wizard of Hogwarts

Chapter 713 I Think, Therefore I Am.

"Time is a terrible subject."

The old wizard was very emotional, "But I have some ideas about the ability to observe the memory planet you mentioned."

Anton's eyes lit up, "Tell me."

The old wizard was silent for a while, then walked to the fireplace in the corner of the office, drew out his wand and clicked on a relief above the fireplace.

The relief is an old well, and a bony hand stretches out from the old well, making a motion of grabbing towards a pile of things in the distance.

With the light tap of the wand, dark green cracks flashed brightly, and the pile of things suddenly changed from white plaster to colorful.

The old wizard reached out and took out a book from the pile of things, and saw "My Experience of Becoming a Ghost" written on the cover.

He fumbled for the book for a while, sighed faintly, and handed the book to Anton, "It's not a very good feeling to be a ghost, but unfortunately you can only get a glimpse of some insights from the words in the book, and you can't deeply understand it." I realized that unique feeling of mystery and mystery.”

Anton frowned.

Coincidentally this is not.

He really has a way to become a ghost.

When he went to Azkaban to be imprisoned, he transformed a dementor, and its robe was later given to him by Fudge for research.

Later, it was made into a wizard robe that can turn people into ghosts, but Anton always thought it was useless. After all, ghosts can also be attacked by magic, and they can’t cast spells themselves. .

"You just read it here. There are many personal secrets of mine in it. I hope that this book will not be leaked before I die."

Anton nodded, and gave the old wizard some fine wine he had scavenged from the goblin Pedro, making the old man laugh out loud.

The old wizard happily sorted out the sundries on the first floor of the bookshelf, and carefully placed the wine bottles on it.

Mainly these are Pedro's treasures.

Quack quack...

He could already think of the old demon's pained expression. Thinking of this, somehow he felt happy.

Anton ignored him, sitting on the sofa and watching quietly.

Not everyone can sort out magic in an orderly manner like himself. Most of the books written by wizards are more like essays, messy and everything.

——"Memory is like a long list, and the emotions, thoughts, thoughts, fantasies, etc. that are born from it are like dust floating on the list."

——"When we don't have the protection of our bodies, the strong winds surging back and forth between the living world and the dead soul world will pass through the veil and blow our list."

——"This strong wind has not stopped, and it has swept away all emotions and thoughts little by little..."

——"After everything was swept away, I thought, no, I can feel it, and the traces of my existence have also been completely erased, leaving only tasteless memories."

——Memory without emotion, memory without taste, will make us recall the past as if watching a tasteless movie, and we can no longer get any emotion from it.

——"Alive, but seems to be dead, this is a ghost without 'emotion'."

——"Ghosts have emotions and emotions. But these emotions and emotions are just responses to the surrounding environment, and they cannot taste emotions from memory."

——"It is short-lived, instant, lingering, and desperate."

——"But this kind of despair is also instant. It will not last in our hearts. If we don't think about those feelings again, despair will not come."

——“When we see our former enemies, we get angry, and we feel the desire to attack them.”

——"But let's not run into these enemies again, we won't even recall this feeling of 'angry'!"

——"Looking dryly at the memories with enemies on the list will not make us 'angry' at all."

——"This is different from human beings. Emotional memories will not be brewed more purely in time, and nothing can be retained..."

——"When you become a ghost, you have emotions, but you can't keep them. You have thoughts, but you can't keep them. Only tasteless memories can be recorded."

——"This kind of 'memory' is also different from human's 'memory'. It is extremely thin and pale, and it can't even be squeezed into the 'list'. It can only be attached to the list like an idea, waiting to be blown by a strong wind one day. Completely erased and disappeared."

——"We will have a very cruel understanding: the dead, even if they continue to live in this world as a souvenir, they will not be able to participate in history."

——"And the only thing that can prove our existence is not ourselves, but other humans who see us. Their memories, their being frightened by ghosts, their experiences of becoming friends with ghosts, etc., these will be history."

— “But it’s someone else’s, and we have nothing.”

...

...

The book "My Experience of Becoming a Ghost" is very thick, and it records all Fiennes' perceptions in a rambling manner, telling about the great horror after death.

Anton knew what was going on.

Thinking, the thinking among the six elements of the soul.

Because without the body, there is no mind.

Anton never thought that thinking would play such a role in this, and it would be so important in the traces of life.

This also seems to confirm the sentence I heard in my previous life - I think, therefore I am.

He also thought of the two Horcruxes he made. In order to avoid the "Tom Riddle Diary" made by Voldemort when he was young, the avatar intends to resurrect himself, and the utensils he chose to carry the soul backup are unable to carry the "thinking" ' items.

In other words, those Horcruxes cannot have the ability to think independently.

Now it seems that this approach really avoids some problems.

At the same time, Anton also saw a lot of content about the "crack spell" invented by the old wizard himself in the book, telling that the reason why he barely obtained the ability of "thinking" lay in some applications in the field of his "horcrux".

Anton knew all these things before.

After scanning it once, he quickly flipped through it, until a piece of information suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

——Ghosts can look in the mirror, which makes me very interesting. I have heard some legends about ghosts before. Many ghosts like to float from the back of strangers when they look in the mirror.

— I once teased my apprentice Anthony Weasley that way.

—But actually, those who have been frightened by our ghosts don’t know that we are also frightened when we look in the mirror.

——It wasn’t that he was frightened by his own face.

——This is an interesting topic. When our ghost looks at ourselves in the mirror, it is easy to see our own heart.

——The memories of the past will be like waves, crazily surging, beating our translucent body, as if to destroy us.

——Other ghosts don't understand, but I, a special ghost who can barely 'think', can probably guess that this is because of the rejection of history. (Later my apprentice Anthony Weasley told me that the memories of all individuals constitute a long river of time, so I think this is a kind of collection of memories by the long river of time, and for the collection of memories of dead creatures, it will completely integrate these memories into into it.)

——(So I should actually be special, I still have thinking, and the long river of time will not stop such erosion. It turns out that this is the gale I felt on the memory list before. Anton is really smart!)

"It takes a long time to form memories..." Anton frowned slightly and muttered this sentence.

"So it will wash away everything except the memory, allowing the memory to fully integrate into itself."

"Then, everything in the soul, except the memory, the rest..."

His eyes suddenly brightened, "So, what are they relying on?"

"I seem to have discovered something I hadn't noticed before!"

"The emotions, will, and everything else of intelligent creatures must have a dimension to rely on, and this dimension is the dimension where the dementor was born."

He thought of the dementor who turned into the image of a girl. Through her own hands, the girl even released a magic that covered the entire world-that magic spell recovered all the depressed patients all over the world!

(See Chapter 431 for details)

"It seems that I have to find another dementor to study?" Anton rubbed his chin and raised his eyebrows. "Azkaban? Haha, do you really want to take a stroll?"

Tut tut...

That's right, go over there and have a look, and see if Lao Fu has fully recovered.

If not...

Quack quack...

Let's find excitement! My dear professor, here I come!
