Chapter 81: The Curse of Death (Part )
PS: Please vote for recommendation!
Mike, who knew nothing about this, did not start learning the Killing Curse immediately after arriving at the Room of Requirement. Instead, he reviewed all his knowledge of the Killing Curse in his mind.

The Killing Curse is a very powerful black magic. It is powerful not because of how amazing its power is.

Some people may think that the instant death feature of the Killing Curse is very powerful, but in fact, many spells can easily achieve this effect.

Although evil curses such as "Thunderbolt Explosion" are not listed as unforgivable curses, their lethality is no weaker than the Killing Curse. If they hit the human body directly, it can also achieve the effect of instant death.

And it's not just the Explosion Spell, there are also "Burning Flames", "Shattered" and even Transfiguration, these can be considered daily spells and they are all quite lethal. Compared to the powerful lethality of spells, the human body is too fragile.

The reason why the Killing Curse is regarded as an unforgivable curse is that the Ministry of Magic explains that it is not only incredibly lethal, but long-term use will also affect the user's mind, making him evil and crazy.

Mike scoffed at this statement.

In his opinion, there was only one reason why the Killing Curse was strictly prohibited: it was too easy to learn.

The spells mentioned above, such as the Fire Curse and the Explosion Curse, require a considerable amount of magic power to kill the enemy instantly, and also require a very high level of magic power to support. However, the Killing Curse does not require this at all. Its magic power consumption is negligible compared to the former, and even underage wizards can easily learn it.

As for affecting the user's mind, Mike would never believe it. There are many people who can cast the Killing Curse in the original book. The famous Half-Blood Prince Snape can cast the Killing Curse, and he uses it no less than the Death Eaters, but he doesn't become much more evil.

Another reason why Michael was so eager to learn the Killing Curse was that the Killing Curse directly affected the soul, which allowed it to cause damage to some special units. For example, ghosts, dementors, and magic portraits could all be threatened by the Killing Curse, but the effect was not as good as it was on humans. And most importantly, the Killing Curse could destroy Horcruxes.

In the original book, the means Harry and others used to destroy the Horcruxes were the venom of the basilisk and the sword of Gryffindor that absorbed the venom of the basilisk. However, Mike did not plan to participate in the main plot of the original book this semester, and the basilisk was left to Harry and Dumbledore to deal with. So he naturally could not get the venom of the basilisk, so the characteristic of the killing curse that can destroy the Horcrux is very important, because the Horcrux is not just the notebook.

After confirming the above, Mike took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and took out a glass box containing a white mouse from the Traceless Stretching Spell bag.

Since the "Anti-Killing Curse Vest" saved his life, Michael has prepared many mice in his invisible stretching bag so that he can assemble an "Anti-Killing Curse Vest" at any time. These mice were purchased by Michael from the Muggle world. Although there are mice available in Diagon Alley, the price is too high.

The special effect of the Killing Curse makes it not so effective on the alchemical doll. In order to observe the effect of the Killing Curse more intuitively, Mike chose to use a white mouse as a target.

He took out a little white mouse and used a levitation spell to make it float in the air and unable to move. Then Mike closed his eyes and began to plan his murderous intentions.

Mike also killed a lot of people in his previous life. According to Mike's guess, he should have some so-called murderous aura on his body, just like those professional killers. The more people he kills, the different his temperament will be from ordinary people. Then it should be easier for him to release the killing curse, and it is not impossible to succeed in one go.

"Avada Kedavra!" After brewing for a moment, Mike suddenly opened his eyes. The spell drew a strange arc in the air and pointed at the little white mouse, while he shouted the spell of Kedavra.

However, nothing happened. The expected flash of green light and the white mouse falling down did not happen. It turned out that Mike was too naive. Killing more people does not mean that the killing intention is stronger.

If the attempt to generate murderous intent fails, then the only option is to resort to the method of association.

Mike's pupils began to dilate as he watched the struggling white mouse in midair. As a homeless orphan, Mike was very familiar with mice. These damn creatures not only carried a huge amount of germs, but were also very aggressive.

In the dirty and messy city sewers, some rats can grow up to 20 centimeters long. Even ordinary cats dare not mess with such rats. When Mike and his friends were wandering on the street, they couldn't stand the cold winter and went to sleep in the sewer.

Although the smell in the sewer was very bad, at least the temperature was much higher than on the ground. However, that experience became Mike's nightmare.

That night Mike was awakened by the screams of his friends. When he looked towards the source of the sound with sleepy eyes, the nightmare-like scene in front of him dispelled all the remaining sleepiness.

One of them had more than a dozen mice the size of kittens hanging on his body, biting his flesh, and the man being bitten was screaming and struggling on the ground, trying to throw the mice away or crush them to death. However, the mice bit him so fiercely that no matter how he struggled, it was useless.

He probably realized that this was not going to work, and he struggled to stand up, but he failed after several attempts. Mike looked at his feet and found that the shoes on his feet, including his toes, had been completely eaten away by rats, leaving only a few bloody finger bones exposed, and even a few smaller rats were still gnawing at the remaining flesh on the bones.

After struggling for a while, he finally gave up and stood up, stretching out his hands to pull the mice off his face. There were two huge mice lying on his face, covering his entire face, so that Mike couldn't see his current expression. One of his ears was gone, and a small mouse was trying to drill into the ear hole, as if it wanted to get in and eat the soft meat inside.

The two hands he stretched out were not much better than his feet. Several fingers were missing, and the white bones could be vaguely seen on the back of his hands soaked in dark red blood.

He didn't know whether it was because his hands had no strength due to severe injuries, or because the two rats were biting him too hard, but he tried to pull them off twice but failed, and could only scream in pain.

As time went by, his screams became weaker and weaker. He seemed to realize that he could not go on like this. He got ruthless, grabbed one of the mice with both hands and pulled it towards him with force.

This time he succeeded, but he not only pulled the mouse down, but also his eyeball...
