Hogwarts, this professor is too stable.

Chapter 6 Progress in soul research based on genetic engineering

The whole person got into the box. The spatial layout inside was not like the horizontal grid layout of Newt's magical creature zoo, but a multi-layered vertical distribution like an insulated box.

The first floor of the laboratory is Mochir's research room. There are many books on this floor, a desk, and a Muggle and desktop computer and a laptop on it.

The desktop computer was assembled by Moqil himself. It has the best performance and costs a full 1500 pounds. Even at the exchange rate of 2022, this is still a full 12077.1 yuan, let alone today in 1991. The value is hard to estimate.

The laptop is GridCompass1101. This old computer that has been used for 5 years should be replaced with a thinkpad next year.

What does Quirrell know about Muggle Studies?

The nerd would only explain the human geography of Muggles to the students according to the text, and talk about the customs and customs of various countries and nations.

As the professor of Muggle Studies at Hogwarts, he has a privilege that most wizards in the British wizarding world do not have - the ability to use Muggle items at will.

In other words, the teacher of any subject at Hogwarts has the greatest authority to use any knowledge or items in the subject he teaches.

Because they have a very valid reason - magic research.

Unfortunately, Professor Quirrell never made good use of this clear rule.

On the second underground floor of the Ministry of Magic headquarters in London, at the end of the dimly lit and dilapidated corridor, in that dim and shabby office smaller than the broom closet of Hogwarts, the staff of the Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items can judge Every wizard who lives in the wizarding world but uses Muggle items at will.

Although the staff were fooling around almost every day, and although Mr. Arthur Weasley, a staff member of the Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items, was the most ardent lover of Muggle items, it was indeed illegal for wizards to use Muggle items. of.

It can be said that Mochir had already violated wizarding laws by using these two computers before he joined the Muggle Studies professor at Hogwarts.

Perhaps this is also the reason why a certain Dark Lord once hoped to join Hogwarts and become a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor - to study dark magic legally and with a license.

"If we want to defend against it, we must thoroughly understand its principles."

Moqil could almost imagine what the Dark Lord said on his lips or in his heart when he applied for the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. It would be surprising if he got the job!

No one knows Muggle Studies better than Maquil.

Mochir, who came from the 21st century, can say without humility that in this era, especially in the world of wizards, no one can compete with him in terms of converting Muggle things into productivity. No!

Of course, this also includes a lot of cutting-edge scientific knowledge that has just been researched in many Muggle laboratories. After all, almost all of this knowledge has appeared in high school textbooks and TikTok in previous lives.

Mochir, who was a science student in his previous life, has never given up on studying Muggle knowledge since he became a wizard. He prefers the subject of biology to boring mathematics, advanced physics, and tedious chemistry.

Human beings, whether they are Muggles or wizards, their love and pursuit of life are spread in the minds of every generation.

In Muggle physics and chemistry research, humans are the subject of research, while in biological and life science research, humans are not only the subject of research, but also the object of research and the object of the application of these technologies.

Nowadays, Muggles have gone from observing and transforming living things to observing and transforming life itself. It’s a word difference, but the progress is epic.

That epoch-making beginning originated from the first few weeks of this century, when "Mendel's Laws" were rediscovered, the DNA double helix structure was discovered in the 50s, genetic engineering in the 70s, and the "Human Genome Project" in the 90s...

Muggles have been uncovering the mysteries of life layer by layer from the "material" level of the body.

But wizards are completely different. Alchemists in distant ancient times created the magic stone, the highest achievement of alchemy. The principle of this alchemical item is still unknown. However, subsequent research by wizards proved that the magic stone is based on the function of the human soul. As long as the soul does not decay, no matter how old the body is, it will not leave this world.

Later, a famous Greek researcher, the dark wizard Herbo the Despicable, created the first basilisk and Horcrux before 100 AD. The famous experiment in which a toad hatched a rooster's egg and obtained a basilisk proved the law of arrangement and connection of soul and body.

The most outstanding researcher of life magic in modern times is undoubtedly - Tom Riddle.

Yes, that is Mr. Dark Lord, the second generation.

In his previous life, Moqil had read a lot of fan fiction and complaints from UP owners. They compared the appearance, magic, and personality of the two generations of Dark Lords in this century...

After rigorous comprehensive scoring, a certain bald Dark Lord with no nose and a giggly smile was completely defeated.

But there are specialties in the art. In the magical world, using Legilimency as a medium to come into contact with people's emotions, memories, and souls, Mochir was really shocked by the Dark Lord's scientific research capabilities.

He must have read a lot of books and compared all the current methods that can make wizards live forever. Perhaps because of the consumable properties of the magic stone, or perhaps other hidden shortcomings, the mysterious man finally chose Horcrux as his method of immortality.

The key is that the Dark Lord actually found a way to split his soul seven times. How much advanced magic was involved?

Every time he thought of this, Mochir felt like he was standing at the foot of a mountain looking up at a person standing on the top of the mountain.

What a wonderful magic of life!

Biological evolution may have diverged at some time in the distant past.

Some of the lives develop in the physical direction, and the soul is gradually integrated into the genetic sequence, causing scientists to shout the loud slogan "Life is data!"

As for other lives, they retain their own independent souls and develop new ways of connecting the physical and the soul.

It seems that a certain god is secretly controlling all this, causing the two branches of the Tree of Life to branch further and further apart, forming today's Muggle world and wizarding world.

Just like magical creatures like Thestrals, only those who have witnessed death with their own eyes can see them.

Witnessing death is a change in the soul in some way.

Today's magical biologists have proven that thestrals are distant relatives of fire dragons.

We might as well make a bold guess: millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years ago. When an ancient fire dragon was dying, he was full of reluctance to leave this world. It was unwilling to leave, so the soul returned to the body. Among its descendants, some inherited its talents before rebirth and have now evolved into lizards and crocodiles, while others have evolved into today's Thestrals.

Moqil agreed with the direction of soul research by his predecessors, but he did not agree with the old path of a certain failed Dark Lord. He wanted to take a more steady path.

Based on the genetic engineering of Muggles, he proposed a series of soul engineering research.

Genetic engineering is to carry out strict design according to people's wishes, and to give organisms new characteristics through in vitro DNA recombination and transgenic technologies.

At least four tools are needed to achieve these precise operations of genetic engineering.

First, a "magnifying glass" that can observe genes; second, a "scalpel" that can accurately cut DNA; third, a "suture needle" that can reconnect DNA fragments; fourth, the DNA that has been recombined in vitro. A "transport vehicle" introduced into recipient cells.

For wizards, these operations are not directed at DNA, but at souls.

Therefore, Moqier named his research: "Soul Research Based on Genetic Engineering."

He has found the soul magnifying glass, which is his innate Legilimency magic. Although the current magnifying glass can only be regarded as the technical level of the Muggle scientist Leeuwin Hooke at that time, he believes that he will soon be able to A breakthrough.

As for the soul scalpel, this is a technical difficulty that he urgently needs to overcome.

To this end, Mochir felt that he needed to meet the best soul surgeon in the history of the wizarding world - Mr. Tom Riddle, who had performed seven perfect soul-cutting surgeries on himself.

But before that, we must have a foolproof plan, an alternative plan in case something goes wrong, an alternative plan in case something goes wrong again...
