Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 144: First taste of alchemy

Ron and Harry didn't expect that there was someone else in the bedroom. Mikel hadn't been with them recently and had been silent every day.

Ron said awkwardly: "Mikel, didn't you go home for Easter?"

Mikel said "hmm", "It's too far, so I didn't go back. Instead, you guys, what's the matter with the fire dragon exploding gold coins?"

Harry thought about it and felt that there was nothing to hide about this matter, so he told the matter of Gringotts.

Mikel's expression was very solemn, and he asked Ron: "Does Gringotts hold activities during Easter?"

Ron said "uh", "Not just Easter, there are also activities on other holidays. You are not born in the UK, so you don't understand."

Mikel didn't pay attention to the follow-up of the "fire dragon exploding gold coins" incident. He was more concerned about the incident itself, just that there was such an incident.

His expression changed for a while, and he continued to read with his head down.

Harry and Ron went out for a night tour quietly. When they went out, Ron talked about Mikel's changes.

"Do you think he's been acting strange lately?"

Harry nodded, "He's become like Hermione, and loves reading."

Ron: "No, that's not what I mean."

But he couldn't tell the reason.

On the other side, Lin Xia returned to the golden cabin.

After finishing her daily practice, she first took out her diary.

The scale of fate on her wrist was burning hot, and Lin Xia finally remembered who T.M. Riddle was. Wasn't this the name of Voldemort when he was young?

When she encountered Voldemort's related items again, she summoned the scale of fate without hesitation and performed a sacrifice!

But something went wrong with this sacrifice.

She couldn't use a single sacrifice!

That is to say, this item was not completely at her mercy.

Lin Xia tried another sacrifice mode, placing the diary on the left end of the scale, and the little white cat stood on the right end of the scale.

With almost no hesitation, the right end where the little white cat was located rose rapidly, almost reaching the vertical line.

Seeing this, Lin Xia did not choose to sacrifice again.

The power of this diary is too strong, and it also contains other secrets. Maybe she can crack the secret first.

She put the diary on the other side, took out the secret key of the Alchemist Association, and swiped the card to learn.

Alchemy is a very advanced subject, and you need to learn a lot of basic knowledge before you can try alchemy.

So after getting the key, she did not do alchemy immediately, but used all the learning points given to her by Mr. Ollivander to exchange for basic books and learn by herself first.

It took Lin Xia nearly two months to learn all the basic knowledge she needed to learn before she dared to try alchemy for the first time.

Originally, the learning speed could be faster.

But she had a lot of things to do every day, especially the [Natural Wand] needed to look at a lot of data, so it took some time.

Now that the progress of the Natural Wand has been delayed, Lin Xia has time to do other things to see if she can draw inferences from one instance and trigger new inspiration.

For the first time trying alchemy, Lin Xia chose the most basic and simple "Guardian Talisman" as the entry work.

The talisman only needs one rune, which can be made directly on the talisman. It is better to say that it is a talisman than an alchemical product.

Although it is the least difficult alchemical product, it has always been a best-seller in the wizarding world.

Some people say that the talisman can prevent evil curses, malice, bad luck... There are all kinds of sayings.

Lin Xia also wore a talisman, but maybe Hogwarts was too safe, and her talisman never worked once.

However, for some people, it is quite useful. For example, Neville, he wore many talismans, and said every day that if it weren't for the talisman, his toad, textbooks, and homework would be lost.

Every night when he was going back to the dormitory, he would remember what he was missing at the last minute.

However, Lin Xia believed that this simple talisman could only defend against small things. Once a person suffered too much malice and bad luck, he would still be unlucky when he was supposed to be unlucky.

Lin Xia calmed down, lit an incense for herself, picked up yellow paper and a brush, and started drawing talismans.

There are many basic runes in alchemy. The guardian rune is a relatively complex rune, but it only needs to be engraved in the rune to become an alchemical product.

Unlike other basic runes, it has to be repeated many times to form an effective alchemical rune.

In Lin Xia's eyes, alchemy is a combination of craftsmanship and magic, but it is better to say that it is a clever application and change between runes.

But compared with pure drawing runes, alchemy needs more external forces, which is a bit like a combination of talismans and refining.

No wonder so few people become alchemists, after all, few people can have talents in both.

The first guardian talisman failed.

The second guardian talisman failed.

The third guardian talisman succeeded.

...

Lin Xia was fully focused and spent two hours making a lot of guardian talismans. She counted them and found that 10 of them were successful and 30 failed, with a success rate of 4/1.

It barely broke even.

Lin Xia thought: If the family background is not strong enough, I am afraid it will not be able to withstand such a waste of money.

She put away all the amulets and planned to take some time to continue working on it the next day or the day after tomorrow, so as to reach the minimum amount of items Hogwarts needs to collect and receive the task reward.

This task issued by Hogwarts does not provide door-to-door collection, and the goods must be shipped at a special collection point.

But she was in Hogwarts, and the nearest pick-up point was the newly opened grocery store on campus, which was quite convenient.

When she finished all her work, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening. When she was about to rest, the diary suddenly opened automatically without wind on the table.

Lin Xia did not ignore it because it was too conspicuous. The sound of turning the pages was very crisp, as if it was deliberately heard by people.

Lin Xia's eyes moved slightly and walked over. There was already a line of words written in the diary:

[Hello, I am Tom Riddle, are you a student of Hogwarts? ]

The handwriting was very new, as if it had just been written. Lin Xia was a little confused about where the ink for this notebook came from.

She stared at it silently without saying a word.

[I was also a student of Hogwarts, you should call me senior]

The notebook automatically appeared with this sentence.

She still did not speak, let alone any movement.

After a while, another sentence was written in the diary:

[I know you are very wary of me, but please rest assured that I have no intentions towards you. I have been staying in the diary all the time. I haven't talked to anyone for too long. I am very happy to meet you]

Lin Xia's eyes flashed with interest. She dipped the feather pen in ink and wrote a sentence.

[Nice to meet you, Tom Riddle, my name is Lin Xia, good night]

The diary soon appeared with a sentence:

[Good night]
