Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts

"I..." Thunderbird still hesitated for a moment when he said this. It was not until he saw Anduin picking up his braces again that he closed his eyes and blurted out, "I was actually born in 1893!"

"1893? How is this possible? Aren't you already over ninety years old now? But you look at least thirty years old now!" Anduin originally thought that the other party just lied about his age, but he didn't expect that he would say it.

Such a surprising number, the most important thing is that his Legilimency told him that the other party was telling the truth, which made him even more surprised.

"This...hey..." After Thunderbird reported his actual age, he seemed to have been pulled off a layer of skin, and he let out a helpless sigh, "It is true, my actual age is indeed much older than I look on the outside.

"

"How did you do this? I can tell that you didn't simply change your appearance, but your body became as healthy as a strong wizard." Anduin looked at Thunderbird with a surprised expression.

He had examined the other party before, and Thunderbird's body was extremely healthy, which allowed him to remain conscious even after being seriously injured.

At the same time, he also specifically measured the opponent's magic value, which was as high as 2138 points. This was the first time Anduin had seen such an exaggerated magic power reserve, which even made him doubt whether the opponent's race was human.

You must know that Anduin, who grew up by eating the meat of magical animals every day, now has only 817 magic power, and the growth rate has slowed down. It is not certain whether he can exceed 1,000 before the age of thirty.

"Weren't you very curious about that unrecognizable bottle of potion before?" Thunderbird also broke the pot after revealing the secret of his age. "The thing in that crystal bottle is called 'Snake Slough Potion', which is also called by us.

It’s the ‘elixir’, and the reason why I can maintain my current physique is because of it!”

"Snake Slough Potion?" Anduin repeated it calmly, but his heart was already in a state of turmoil. "Can you achieve this with just this potion? Tell me what you know about this potion.

Tell me everything!”

"I don't know the origin of this potion. I only know that its formula is in the hands of the club leader." Thunderbird was like an emotionless robot at this time, saying in despair.

"As long as this medicine is taken, no matter how old the wizard is, it can return the wizard to the age when his physical condition is at its strongest, and it can further strengthen the body's functions. Whether it is strength, physical strength or recovery ability, it will be greatly enhanced, and it can also

Retain the original magical abilities, including magic power reserves and strength."

"Is there such a powerful potion in this world?" Anduin felt a little incredible after hearing Thunderbird's description. At the same time, he also understood why this guy's magic value was so exaggerated. It turned out that he had been doing this for more than ninety years.

of magic reserves.

But Anduin soon calmed down, and then looked at the other party seriously, "The gift given by fate has already been marked with a price in secret. No matter what you get, you have to pay the price you deserve. There must be something else for it."

Let’s talk about other questions, I don’t believe this medicine has no side effects at all.”

Thunderbird found that Anduin could still remain rational and calm after hearing what he said. He secretly sighed in his heart, what a terrible young man. It seems that it is not unfair for me to lose to you.

"Yes, this medicine is not a panacea. It has three very obvious side effects."

Thunderbird sighed helplessly, "First of all, the biggest problem with the 'Elixir' is that it is very expensive. Although I don't know its complete configuration process, I also roughly know that the main material for making it is the powerful vitality.

Magical animals, because the essence of this potion is to extract the life force from magical animals and then transform it into potions."

"So you are smuggling magical animals all over the world just for..." Anduin's heart suddenly became enlightened, and Thunderbird's words finally solved a question that had puzzled him for a long time.

That's why a Silver Spear Club with such strong combat effectiveness and such a strict organizational structure is a criminal group specializing in smuggling. With such a powerful force, there is nothing wrong with doing anything. This behavior pattern even makes Anduin feel like this

The silver spear is particularly low.

"Yes, we capture and smuggle magical animals. In addition to obtaining gold galleons and resources, the main purpose is to provide them to the headquarters and then prepare them into 'elixirs'."

"What about the other two side effects?" Anduin asked impatiently.

"The other two side effects are that after taking the 'Snake Slough Potion', you cannot stop taking it. We have to take the potion every three months. Like that crystal bottle, one bottle is enough for two times.

Once we stop taking the medicine, what awaits us is not a return to our original age, but direct death!" When Thunderbird said this, a trace of fear of death flashed in his eyes.

No wonder this guy was so afraid of death before. This medicine is said to be an 'elixir of immortality', but in fact it is similar to a unique medicine. Once you become dependent on it, your whole will will be corroded, and you will even be more afraid of death than normal people.

Du Yin curled his lips in disgust. This kind of thing looked good, but he must not touch it.

"And the last side effect," Thunderbird continued after a pause, "is that after starting to take this medicine, you have to 'slough' every month!"

"Shedding?" Anduin looked at the other party with some confusion when he heard this.

"Yes, it's shedding in the literal sense!" Thunderbird seemed to be recalling some painful memories.

"This kind of molting is like a ritual. The first time you take the 'elixir' is the time. After that, every 30 days, the whole person will feel the pain of strong acid corrosion, and then the skin will begin to wrinkle.

, bubbles, until that layer of skin is completely peeled off the body and fades away from the body.”

"The whole process will last for at least 12 hours. During this period, the molting wizard will have no ability to resist and cannot even use the simplest spells. Moreover, the whole person will temporarily lose his mind due to excessive pain and scream.

and whining are perfectly normal."

"However, after the molting is completed, the wizard will completely return to his best condition, as if he were born new, and even some simple scars will fade away with the old skin!" Speaking of this, Thunderbird seemed to recall the feeling of comfort all over again.

I couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

No wonder it’s called the ‘Eloughing Potion’. It’s a medicine just like its name. However, this shedding process is more like a curse than classifying it as a ritual.

Thinking of this, Anduin suddenly became more and more disgusted with this potion. Wouldn't taking this potion be equivalent to giving his life to the control of others?

"In that case, wouldn't the molting period be the time when this person is at his weakest?" Anduin asked thoughtfully.

"That's right." Thunderbird nodded helplessly, "Every wizard who has taken the 'elixir of immortality' will regard his molting period as his biggest secret. Even after everyone obtains the potion from the leader for the first time, they will not

I will drink it immediately, but I will wait for a while before taking the medicine. This is to hide my molting period."

"Is it really enough to just hide it? If someone wants to investigate, as long as they pay close attention to your daily life, they can still find out the scope through some clues..." Anduin said this with an expression as if something suddenly occurred to him.

Startled.

"Ha, it seems you have realized it too." Thunderbird looked at Anduin with this expression and gave a rare wry smile, "Why do you think the members of the Silver Spear have to hide their identities, even every member?

The Ministry only dispatches two people, and they are invisible all day long. Even if there are no enemies, they are hiding in the shadows. Every appearance or activity is basically at a fixed time period."

"Besides, most of the time, you won't see two spearmen acting together."

"So this arrangement is all to cover up your molting period?" Anduyin also reacted at this time. These silver spears are obviously extremely powerful, but I have never heard of any multi-person actions by them.

.

"Yes, many ordinary members have always thought that hiding their identities and hiding around is the club's consistent behavior, but that is just a means of self-protection for us poor people who want to escape death."

"In addition to hiding identities and evading, spears and spears rarely use masks to communicate directly, because this kind of contact may reveal the time of the molting period through whether the other party responds in time."

"And even if you use a mask to communicate, no one will reply immediately. It will take at least a few hours or even days. Therefore, if you are not a close relationship, just contacting the other party is quite offensive.

"

Thunderbird laughed to himself. In order to keep their pitiful secrets, they hid all day long and disappeared most of the time. Even if someone contacted them, they had to cover it up because they were afraid of being targeted.

The molting stage.

At this time, Anduin finally understood why the Silver Spear's behavioral logic was so strange. He was obviously just a smuggler, but he had to make it as mysterious as if there was some big conspiracy.

At the same time, he also felt contempt and pity for these guys who were controlled by the medicine, which meant that as long as they were exposed to this so-called elixir, they could basically only hide in the shadows.

"How many people in the Silver Spear know about this 'Snake Slough Potion'? How many people have taken this potion?" Anduin immediately asked what he was most interested in.

"Basically none of the spears in the club know about the 'Elixir of Life', but all the spears know about the 'Elixir of Life', but not every spear has used the potion. As for who has taken the potion, I don't know the details.

I'm not sure, after all, everyone basically doesn't know each other, and because of the special nature of the medicine, even if you take it, you won't tell anyone about it," Thunderbird said frankly.
