Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

In the living room.

"Is this your only alchemy work this year?" Nicoléme stared at the sleep rattle that Wright had just taken out on the coffee table in front of him. His face was calm, and there was no trace of what he was thinking. Wearing something.

"No, I also refined some other things, but the only thing I brought here now is this rattle." Wright replied.

In addition to the eight pawn chess pieces, skirts, and sleep talk, the alchemy props Wright refined in school this year also made many funny toys similar to pig helmets to sell as merchandise in the twins' magic waffle shop.

But now I have nothing else with me except the sleep-talking rattle. The pawn chess piece Nicoléme has already seen it, so Wright has not taken it out at all. In addition, the knight chess piece is just a frame now, not a formed alchemy tool at all, and has not been taken out.

"Have you made any improvements to this prop? Or do you have any new ideas?" Nicoléme raised his head and turned his gaze from the Mengxiao rattle to Wright.

"Yes, I referred to the concept of the telephone and made this dream rattle into a small tool that can transmit messages. There are also several matching accessory rattles. In addition..." Wright explained, he He also listed several magic spells he had attached to the Mengxiao rattle, "Finally, I also improved the magic of the door key on this rattle. The original door key will be cast as long as people touch it. , but now I’ve added a switch to it.”

"Switch?" Nicoléme asked, "Does it mean that it can be activated according to the user's will? Did you find the method in the books I read to you last year?"

"That's right." Wright nodded.

Nicoléme hummed, and then slowly said: "Although there is nothing new, I think you, Wright, should know that the act of making switches for door keys has long been abandoned by alchemists. ? Who would give you this time to turn on this switch in a real battle? "

"The alchemists back then were able to escape from the pursuit after the defeat of the Alchemy War again and again because the door key did not require a switch to activate. It would leave immediately after touching it!" Nicoléme became more and more excited as he spoke. It seems to recall the war years during the Alchemy War.

As soon as he finished speaking, Nicoléme suddenly changed the subject: "But what you did, Wright, is in line with the current trend. After all, the wizarding world has been peaceful for too long, so it is reasonable for you to think of making a switch for the door key. "

Wright blinked. He originally thought that the excited Nicolas Flamel would directly criticize him, but he didn't expect that he suddenly changed the subject.

"Do you think I'm going to criticize you?" Nicolas Flamel raised his eyes and glanced at Wright. Through the expression on Wright's face, he could probably guess what Wright was thinking. This is the advantage of those with rich life experience. . Even without the use of memory detection spells such as Legilimency, Nicoléme, who has matured as a person, can roughly guess what others are thinking.

Wright said nothing, just nodded silently.

"You are worrying too much." Nicoléme smiled and waved his hand, "Learning alchemy has never been a process that can be accomplished overnight. And to be honest, Wright, from the time you came into contact with alchemy to now, even if you add in the time Those two years in the cloister are only three years in total."

"In the past, three years later, my apprentices would still be chewing on those alchemy books! Wright, you are now able to successfully refine alchemy tools, which is enough to satisfy me."

"But it's precisely because you have such a talent that I treat you differently." As he spoke, Nicolas Flamel came up with the idea of ​​abducting Wright to Beauxbatons. "Why don't you come, Wright?" Beauxbatons, right? It happens to be summer vacation, and you happen to be in France. Wouldn't you like to go to Beauxbatons and have a look? "

"..." Wright lowered his head wordlessly, remaining unchanged in response to all changes.

But to be honest, the reason why Wright is silent now is just because he is afraid that he will change his mind if he speaks. Although Hogwarts is quite good, after staying there for two full years, Wright already feels a little bored. Now it would be a good choice for Wright to go outside and see the scenery of other famous European schools.

Of course, if he really had to choose between the two, Wright would definitely choose to stay at Hogwarts. Because Hogwarts represents more than just the castle, there are also people that Wright cares about.

"And if nothing else happens, I will probably stay in France for a long time. So if you come to Beauxbatons, you can receive my personal teachings nearby. In addition, Principal Maxim of Beauxbatons, and My relationship is pretty good too. If you really want to get in, it won't be difficult," Nicolème said to himself.

However, seeing that Wright still looked indifferent, Nicoléme finally stopped talking, but he thought of another method in his heart.

But now let's give Wright a good test to see if he has forgotten the alchemy knowledge in the book this year. Thinking of this, Nicoléme relaxed for a moment, then leaned back on the armchair and looked at Wright with squinted eyes.

"Wright, what is the basic idea of ​​alchemy?" Nicoléme asked.

Wright raised his head and cleared his throat: "Understand, then analyze, and finally construct."

"Well, not bad." Nicolas Flamel nodded slightly, "This is the most basic concept for making every alchemical prop, don't forget it."

"How is alchemy divided roughly?"

"In order, it is alchemy of matter and matter, alchemy of matter and magic, and finally alchemy of magic and magic." Wright said, "But this classification is not divided according to power, and alchemy of magic and magic is not necessarily higher than alchemy of matter and matter."

"What is the content of the fourth sentence of "The Emerald Record"." Nicolas Flamel asked again.

"The sun is the father, the moon is the mother, conceived by the wind, and nurtured by the earth." Wright replied.

"What is "The Fifth Element" about?"

"In theory, alchemy only recognizes the four elements of earth, water, wind and fire, and the author of "The Fifth Element" is Raymond Slule, who believes that the "fifth element" is the philosopher's stone."

"What is "The Darkness of the Secret" about?"

"It emphasizes the material aspect of alchemy, and there is also "The Cultivation of Gold" which emphasizes the spiritual aspect."

"Then..." Nicolas Flamel paused, "What is the generally believed pinnacle of alchemy?"

Wright's expression became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Master the power of the four elements of earth, water, wind and fire, create something out of nothing, and refine the void."
