Chapter 378： Occlusive Cerebral Surgery Tutorial

The next afternoon, Mike waited for Harry's arrival in the bedroom.

Hermione is going to be with him. The two of them were planning to persuade Ron to come to Mike to learn Occlumency together, but Ron’s situation is still not optimistic.

Although Ron fell asleep after dinner yesterday because he couldn't bear it, the excessive fatigue and severe mood swings made Ron a serious illness. Now he is lying in Madam Pomfrey's ward for treatment. .

Mike, Harry and others are very worried about this.

After all, Ron has encountered too many things recently. First, his father was seriously injured, and then Dumbledore, who killed him, left the school.

It is easy for people to experience extreme behaviors after experiencing so many things in a short period of time. Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey also attaches great importance to Ron. She also released a monitoring curse in her room, keeping an eye on Ron's changes.

But in a sense, it’s also a good thing for Ron to lie in the infirmary at this moment, because many people think that Ron is the culprit who caused Dumbledore to leave Hogwarts after the cause and consequences of this incident were completely spread. , Thus hating Ron, and now Ron can avoid a lot of trouble when he enters the infirmary.

And Neville’s situation was the exact opposite of Ron. He became the hero of Hogwarts in an instant after the things he would rather die than follow.

Almost the entire Gryffindor students are enthusiastically pursuing him, and some even want to take off his clothes to see the scars on his body.

It's a pity that those scars have long disappeared under the power of magic.

"Boom! Boom!"

Just as Mike was thinking, the door of the bedroom suddenly rang.

Mike hurriedly stepped forward and opened the door, and he saw Harry and Hermione standing cramped outside the door.

Until Mike let them in, and after closing the door, the two people exhaled heavily.

"Huh! Mike, I was really embarrassed just now!" Harry shook his head, "As soon as we approached your bedroom, all the Ravenclaws in the lounge started to stare at us!"

Hermione patted her chest lightly and said:

"Yes, that's not a good experience. Those Ravenclaws, their eyes... uh... how do you say? Very... hostile!"

"Don't worry too much, they are just overly nervous. As you all know, yesterday's things were a bit loud." Mike smiled and said, "Right, drink tea?"

"No, are you the only one living here?"

Harry looked at Mike's bedroom as he spoke, and his eyes lit up when he found that there was only one bed in the entire bedroom.

"Yes, there are too few boys in Ravenclaw, so many rooms are vacated."

"This is great! Oh! Of course I am not saying that Gryffindor’s multi-person dormitory is not good, but you know? I have to fall asleep listening to Ron’s screaming and Seamus’s farting every night. This is really not a good experience. But to be fair, although they have so many shortcomings, it is generally pleasant for everyone to live together. At least I like it, after all, living alone is too lonely. Oh! I It's not that you can't live alone! I mean..."

"Okay, Harry!" Seeing Harry wanted to say more, he quickly stopped, "I know what you want to say, multi-person dorms and single dormitories have their own advantages, right?"

Hearing this, Harry nodded quickly, and Mike turned his head to look at Hermione beside him.

At Hogwarts, girls can enter the boys’ dormitory at will, but not vice versa.

But that's all, but Hermione looked very embarrassed as if she had entered the boys' dormitory for the first time.

She saw her feet shaking uneasyly, but her eyes were constantly wandering on the furnishings of the room, and when her eyes fell on the desk, the picture of Mike and Penello, Hermione’s pupils shrank sharply. Then he lowered his head quickly.

"Are you all right? Hermione?"

Mike's voice shocked Hermione, her body shook violently, and then she said without looking up:

"nothing!"

nodded, Mike did not reveal the girl's mind, but said:

"Then let's start."

"Okay." *2

"Because Hermione is new to Occlumency, I will start from the beginning.

Occlumency is an extremely advanced spell. Its function is to block your brain so that others cannot know your thoughts.

But in fact, Occlumency should be subdivided into two kinds of spells-Brain Venting and Occlumency.

This is because the most basic and most important form of Occlumency is to empty your brain, that is, thinking about nothing and feeling nothing. This feeling is a lot like being in a daze, and indeed many people confuse the two and are unable to learn Occlumency, but it is fundamentally different from being in a daze. Because human beings are still thinking even when they are in a daze, it's just that you don't realize it.

This is the traditional Occidental Cerebral practice method, but after combining Muggle psychology, I created a more efficient practice method-self-hypnosis.

You may not know that self-hypnosis is actually a very simple thing. For example, before a running race, you just have to close your eyes and repeatedly say to yourself, ‘I run super fast! ’Then your speed will often be faster than usual after the game starts. Of course, the speed of improvement will not be too high. After all, self-hypnosis is not magic, and it cannot make you a superman directly.

But there is no doubt that self-hypnosis is effective. And my self-hypnosis method is added to the original Occlumency technique. While you are emptying your brains in an absolutely quiet environment, I hope that you can repeatedly say ‘I am a stone’ to yourself and at the same time believe that you have really become a stone without thinking. This will make it easier for you to enter the closed state of the brain, understand? "

Harry looked at Mike dumbfounded. He had known most of the things Mike said before from Snape, but what he never expected was that Mike had created a more effective cultivation method!

This is really amazing!

And Hermione at the side also broke away from the previous shy state and entered the learning state.

is looking at Mike with bright eyes, while writing notes quickly in the notebook she carries with her.

Mike waited until Hermione finished writing the notes, then continued:

"Harry, since you have been studying with Professor Snape for some time before, so in order to confirm your study progress, I will release the chanting spell for you in a while. Would you like to accept this?"

As soon as he said this, Harry's expression instantly became ugly.

Snape had also released his mind several times before. To be honest, it felt uncomfortable to be forced into the brain.

But thinking of Dumbledore's expectant look, Harry gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Very well, then I will give you half an hour of preparation time. In order to be able to test more accurately, after half an hour, I will not wake you up, but will directly use the pantheon on you. Oh, yes, Hermione, you don't need to be so nervous. I won't use panthera on you without your consent, so don't worry."

The worried expression on Hermione’s face has eased a lot, and there have been a lot of shame thoughts hidden in her heart. If Mike really invaded her brain and saw those thoughts, then she might not be alive.

"Then, let's start now Harry."

Mike flipped his wrist, and a completely transparent translucent soundproof shield enveloped Harry in.

Watching Harry slowly lie down under the shield, Mike came to Hermione and began to explain her other knowledge about Occlumency.

Hermione who has entered the learning state has become a learning machine. She has written down almost every word Mike said in her notebook, even including those useless nonsense.

It wasn't until Mike said that half an hour was up, and Hermione closed the notebook unconsciously.

"Hermione, the opposite of Occlumency, the chanting mantra that is the opposite of Occlumency, is what you will learn next. Now I will demonstrate it for you myself. Please be careful."

While talking, Mike took out the blackthorn wand under Hermione's expectant gaze.

Because it was for teaching, Mike didn't use those fancy spellcasting skills, but honestly used his wand to draw complicated lines in mid-air, and finally pointed to Harry lying on the ground breathing smoothly:

"Shenzhen Takenian!"

As Mike's voice slowly spit out, a group of dim dim light flashed away, and then all kinds of memories that did not belong to him appeared in front of Mike.

These memories are all from Harry's first point of view, mostly trivial details of ordinary life, such as playing wizard chess with Ron, eating and going to class together.

But there are also some more valuable memories in these useless memory fragments, such as some words Dumbledore said to Harry, some memory fragments that took Har to watch using the Pendant Pen and so on.

Mike originally wanted to read all these memories, but prolonged contemplation will cause mental damage to the practitioner. At the same time, there will be more opportunities for the same in the future, so Mike just glanced through it. Pulling consciousness away from Harry's brain.

As soon as he finished casting the spell, Mike saw that Hermione was looking at herself intently. After he opened his eyes, the two of them met each other.

Hermione was taken aback by Mike's sudden awakening, and she bounced off like an electric shock.

Mike coughed twice in embarrassment.

"Um, how did it turn out? Has Harry practiced Occlumency?"

Hermione changed the subject and said, but Mike shook his head with a wry smile, and did not speak.

Honestly, Mike really didn't understand what Harry was doing with Snape this time.

Because of the need to teach Hermione, Mike's use of the contemplation just now was quite crude, but such a simple contemplation easily invaded Harry's brain.

And after checking it, Mike found that Harry's brain was not empty at all, and the bizarre scene in it was more like a dream!

In other words, Harry has not emptied his brain at all in the past half an hour, but fell asleep!

Hermione saw that Mike didn't speak, and the expression on her face was a bit ugly. She immediately understood that Harry's performance was not ideal.

So she closed her mouth immediately and stopped asking, she still has this emotional intelligence.

"Harry, wake up, wake up..."

Following Mike's call, Harry slowly opened his eyes. His pupils were slowly condensing, and when he found that Mike and Hermione were watching him, he immediately jumped up from the ground.

"I...I fell asleep!"

Mike slapped his forehead and looked at Harry helplessly.

He is really convinced of Harry now!

Hermione beside 　　 was also quite speechless. Sleeping in the practice was not a glorious thing, and it was fortunate that Harry could say it so loudly.

"I'm sorry! Mike!" Harry looked depressed, "I don't want to, but I always do."

"It's okay. To tell the truth, your situation is very common. Many people sleep while practicing Occlumency. After all, emptying the brain is too much time to be active before going to bed."

"really?"

"Yes," Mike said categorically, "but if you want to learn Occlumency, sleeping all the time is definitely not good. So you two should continue training quickly."

Hearing that Hermione nodded solemnly, and then used Transfiguration to turn a book into a recliner and sat on it (Mike originally wanted Hermione to lie on his bed to practice, but Hermione used it to lie on it. Unable to practice and refused This move made Harry's mouth grow in surprise, he was lying on the floor just now!

As Harry and Hermione closed their eyes one after another on their faces, Mike returned to the desk and began to study the email from Penello.

Yes, Penello has found the answer to the question about the authenticity of the pendant box in Chris's hand.

After he provided Penello with detailed memories of observing the pendant box at the time, Penello and Uncle Mario immediately summoned several fairies with rich experience in appraising treasures to distinguish the authenticity of the pendant box.

And after a whole day of careful observation, the few goblin appraisers also made the final judgment-that pendant box is real!

Nodded satisfied, Mike threw the email into the fireplace.

For Mike, destroying Horcruxes is definitely his most important job right now.

As for the Horcruxes-it doesn't matter whether Slytherin's pendant is in Umbridge's hands or Chris's hands.

Because he has money, which is enough to satisfy most of the other party’s financial requirements.

Of course, if the other party is too greedy, the request exceeds Mike's psychological bottom line.

Then Mike didn't mind using force to take it forcibly.

Anyway, the power of the Freemasonry has grown to an astonishing level, and a small pure-blood family has been destroyed without knowing it. Mike thinks this is not difficult.

Thinking like this, the corners of Mike's mouth rose uncontrollably.

But at this moment, the door of Mike's bedroom was knocked once again...
