Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

"It is still too rough to directly instill something that is contrary to the other person's knowledge into the brain," Funes said, "but human thoughts are very ambiguous and can be manipulated in some ways."

"The true use of the mind seed is that it can solidify a certain thought so that it always maintains a high priority level in the mind."

"For example, when we signed the confidentiality agreement, we had a high degree of recognition of the agreement in our hearts. At this moment, if you use the spiritual seed to implant the command 'obey the confidentiality agreement' into our minds, most people will not Feeling anything out of the ordinary.”

"In the future, this agreement to abide by the confidentiality agreement will become the highest priority guiding factor when it comes to this matter."

"Perhaps some people with very strong self-awareness will find that they attach too much importance to confidentiality agreements, but most of them can also find reasons to convince themselves from some penalty clauses and other aspects."

"Even a very small number of them find that they are forced to abide by the agreement. Because the agreement has termination conditions, he or she will be able to get rid of the constraints of this agreement one day without giving up hope and heading for a dead end such as split personality. .”

"Therefore, we believe that through the second method, especially the method of using some fairer agreements as commands, the safety of the soul seed can be guaranteed to take effect."

Murphy thought, compared to the first method, this application method is actually closer to the thought stamp, or magic oath in Murphy's cognition.

The first method is more compatible with its name "Soul Seed" or its spell "Slave Brand".

Although this seemed to weaken the effect of the soul seed, in fact, it was more in line with his original purpose of possessing this spell.

He didn't initially plan to rule the world with a single spell.

When Celica was asked to find this spell, it was actually just to allow Muggles and future wizards involved in her research plan to keep it a secret.

At that time, he had to use the Oath of Thorns, but the Oath of Thorns had major flaws-it required him to pay part of his magic power, and it was also difficult to effectively restrain the wizard.

Now that there is a second method of soul seed—let’s call it a thought stamp—the confidentiality can be guaranteed through an agreement.

Obviously Funes also knew what Murphy wanted to use the psychic seed to do, so he used the confidentiality agreement as an example.

However, there is still a problem here.

"Although the second method of soul seed can guarantee that secrets will not be actively leaked, it has no ability to prevent passive leaks. How to solve this problem?"

Funes heard this and Omid Abbott looked at each other.

The two hesitated for a while, and finally, as if they had made up their mind, Omid said: "Actually, there are passive restraint methods to ensure that orders are carried out."

“Do you remember Yersinia pestis in the village?”

"You mean..."

"Yes, we actually found the mechanism of mutation of those bacteria. And reproduced it in another organism."

"When we read Joachim's diary, we had a question, that is, what happened when Joachim used the spiritual seed on himself for the second time."

"Joasim used the spiritual seed on himself twice. The first time was to treat the villagers and prevent the plague from leaking. At the same time, it was also to enable himself to sustain himself and not be hit by the desperate reality."

"The second time was when he was also infected with the plague. When he was about to die, he used the spiritual seed on himself to make himself believe that 'the plague will not kill me.'"

"Using two contradictory soul seeds may tear a person's spirit apart, but the two orders of Joachim have a certain consistency and may not cause too much conflict, or even fusion, so He probably wasn’t too hurt by the spell the second time around.”

"However, simply believing that 'the plague will not kill me' cannot save him. This can be seen from the fact that he made the villagers believe that he could be cured, but the villagers still died."

"But the spell worked. He was not killed by the plague."

"On the one hand, this may be because the spell has tampered with the definition of 'kill', and Joachim in the form of zombies and ghosts is still regarded as 'not killed'. On the other hand, the target of the spell at that time was not just It was not just Joachim, but it also had an effect on the germs on his body.”

"The reason for the first factor may be that after Joasim used the spiritual seed for the first time, he convinced himself that he could heal the villagers. This power of 'belief' formed an emotional core that made him Ignoring the deaths of those villagers, he only regarded the status of the villagers as 'not cured'."

"The second factor may be that his order involved both himself and the plague, and his confused consciousness regarded the germ as a concrete enemy."

"In short, under the influence of the spell, the Yersinia pestis was screened."

"The more lethal strains died off, while the less virulent strains survived and learned to live in symbiosis with the zombified human body."

"Because they are the other party to the spell, they have been continuously bound by the spell. Perhaps due to the fusion of Joasim's two soul seeds, they were given the ability to 'heal the villagers and restrain the creatures from leaving the village' Order."

Murphy was a little stunned when he heard this, "Is it so mysterious?"

Although Joachim was already mysterious enough in his own diary, Omid's explanation was even more bizarre.

"Of course, this process is just our rough guess, but what is certain is that the emergence of these germs that are controlled by spells and can constrain biological behavior is an accident."

"Joasim must have been in extreme despair at the time. His spell condensed all his will. Therefore, its influence expanded to a level that ordinary spells could not affect at all. This caused the germ to mutate."

"But once we identify the factors that cause this mutation to occur, we can potentially replicate it."

"We did an experiment. We asked Teacher Celica to use a microscope to release the spiritual seeds on some yeasts placed in the vessels, and ordered them to only ferment the flour dyed with red pigment on one side and not on the other side. Flour dyed with blue pigment.”

"Of course the order didn't take effect," Omid said, "because it's impossible for microorganisms to tell what is red and what is blue. They don't understand the order."

"Later we realized that the reason why those Yersinia pestis bacteria are able to complete complex commands may be because of their symbiotic relationship with the human body."

"So we tried some experiments with some symbiotic bacteria of goblins, but they didn't work."

"Just when we were about to give up, epidemiologist Mr. Toshiyo Harada read the diary and told us that Joachim may have developed a rare secondary symptom, meningitis, after contracting the plague."

"He said that Yersinia pestis may have entered his cerebrospinal fluid through lymphatic channels and affected his mind."

"We immediately realized that this might be the anomaly of Yersinia pestis. It not only lives in symbiosis with the human body, it even relies on the human brain to understand some things!"

"A kind of bacteria actually uses the brains of higher animals to have the ability to recognize complex concepts!"

"This hypothesis scares us!"

"Bacteria with consciousness! They are simply parasitic demons!"
