Chapter 12 Equivalent Substitution

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Just when the note carrying Newt's message for help crossed the ocean and headed for Hogwarts.

The destination of the note

Xifa, who was working hard, had no idea about all this.

Although according to Nico's speculation, even if Xifa is equipped with this tailor-made sword, he will not be able to cast advanced magic.

But after all, it is something that belongs to you.

Gryffindor's sword is only for temporary use. It's okay not to take it out of Hogwarts. If it is taken around the world, Principal Armando, who has always been missing, may not be able to sit still.

"Xifa! Wait a moment, the magic patterns in this place need to be fine-tuned..."

Just when Xifa was thinking about how to protect himself in the future.

Elise's call interrupted his thoughts.

"okay!"

Xifa gently placed the heavy forging hammer on the tool rack beside the forging furnace.

He clapped his hands, walked towards the rest area, stood in front of the sofa, relaxed his body, and sunk straight into the sofa.

Looking at the three women gathered around the forging furnace with their faces reddened by the fire, Xifa's heart was filled with a wonderful sense of satisfaction.

Da da--

Just when Xifa smiled and watched the three of them construct complex magic patterns and argued about whose one was better, the sound of familiar and heavy footsteps came from behind.

Xifa raised his head, and sure enough, Nico Flamel's thick body came into view.

"Mr. Flamel? How can I help you?"

These days, Nico Flamel throws the big frame to three people and then disappears.

However, seeing that he still placed the magic stone in the forge and let it emit flames that were enough to melt a dragon's horn, Xifa seemed to understand why Nico Flamel looked so strong.

After all, if the object of immortality is not stored close to the body and it still looks old, if the body cannot hold on anymore and it is too late to absorb the magic stone, something will happen.

"I have something to do, but I'm here to see you. I'm just here to run errands."

Nico Flamel raised his eyebrows, looking dissatisfied.

"Albus is just making a fuss and actually asked me to give it to you personally. Can there still be enemies in my alchemy workshop?"

After the words fell, Nico Flamel also came to Xifa.

He raised his hand and threw a small object towards Xifa who looked up at him.

The small shiny silver object, Xifa quickly straightened his body and held it firmly with his hands.

Taking a closer look, it turned out to be another looking glass.

"Albus said he could help you find Newt."

Newt? Seafar was surprised. He didn't understand what he was going to do with Newt.

"Don't look at me. I don't know the specific reason. Albus only asked me to tell you one sentence. This adventure will determine whether you can truly regain your ability to cast spells."

Hearing this, Xifa stood up without hesitation.

"Lead the way! Mr. Flamel, I guess Professor Dumbledore is going to talk to me about some important things again."

Hearing this, Nico Flamel burst into laughter.

He didn't explain, turned around and left. As soon as he walked out of the door, Elise and others couldn't see the two of them.

Nico Flamel suddenly spoke.

"Xifa, you really misunderstood Dumbledore this time. He is... you will know when you see him."

The Riddler is so annoying...

Seeing the 'old man' who had whetted his appetite and moved forward faster, Xifa couldn't help but murmur secretly in his heart.

————————

The study room of Nico Flamel's residence

When you push the door open, you feel like you have entered a small square.

Obviously, a very clever traceless expansion spell was cast in this room.

The reason why it is called a small square is because there is a large open space at the entrance, which is only covered with bricks of dark gold and unknown metal.

Judging from the color, it is definitely not gold!

Xifa stamped his feet vigorously, leaving no trace, and silently spread his hands in his heart.

"When you have time, you can come here and read freely."

Nico Flamel naturally saw Xifa's little move. He smiled without saying a word, and then waved his hand.

At the end of the empty field, bricks on the wall kept flying, revealing rows of bottomless bookshelves at the back, as well as alchemy dolls that kept moving back and forth to maintain books during the period.

Seeing the shocked look on Xifa's face, Nico Flamel took advantage of him and nodded with satisfaction.

You little guy, you still dare to look down on me.

With his bad taste satisfied, Nico Flamel waved his hand again.

The scene in the room returned to its original empty appearance.

"follow me."

Sifa followed Nico Flamel's footsteps to the center of the field.

I saw this great alchemist lightly stamping his feet.

It seemed like he had touched something.

I saw the ground blooming like a lotus, then wrapping the two people in it, and finally formed a quasi-circular package and sank to the ground.

This is probably the elevator in the magical world, right?

With a slight sense of weightlessness, Xifa understood that this was the feeling of accelerating descent.

What is Professor Dumbledore doing so deep underground?

Falling into a quiet environment, Xifa couldn't help but start thinking and guessing.

"Xifa, do you know the rules for using the magic stone?"

Suddenly, Nico Flamel suddenly spoke, attracting Xifa's attention as soon as he spoke.

"Usage rules? Isn't it a large magic source? No... This doesn't explain why it can make the elixir of immortality. Wait! Immortality!"

Xifa seemed to understand something. He stretched out his hand and drew a horizontal line towards Nico Flamel.

"You are really sharp. To put it bluntly, there is nothing invisible about this."

"The Magic Stone is also called the Philosopher's Stone, and its biggest rule is to force equal exchange!"

Nico Flamel said proudly.

"In front of it, everything you want has a price tag. It depends on whether you can afford it."

"Then... Mr. Flamel."

Xifa suddenly said with a strange expression.

"Can I ask, what is the price for unlocking the seal for me?"

...

The non-still picture was silent for a long time.

Nico Flamel said with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"Sorry, I didn't know about this kind of thing when I refined it, so the magic stone cannot and does not know how to exchange it for equal value."

Yes, bricks will fly with great strength, and miracles will happen with great strength.

Magic, as long as enough magic power is supplied, can cause any consequences, Xifa said, it is understandable.

Seeing Xifa's face showing unconcealable disinterest.

Nico Flamel couldn't help but start to learn more about how powerful the Philosopher's Stone was.

What is it that turns stone into gold and inspires a powerful forging fire?

When Westerners asked, they were all the same, requiring a lot of magic power.

In other words, wizards generally cannot use their entire body's magic power to release a spell in one breath.

The magic stone is to accumulate magic power and cast this magic for you.

The above situation is essentially a super powerful transformation spell and fire spell.

However, after immortality, Nico Flamel only hesitated slightly before telling Xifa the inside story.

The refining of the magic stone requires a large amount of souls.

At that time, the wizarding war was intensifying and the Muggles were frightened by the Black Death, which allowed him to easily obtain a large number of souls.

However, Nico Flamel told Xifa that for people who have taken the magic stone elixir of life.

The total amount of their bodies and souls has been fixed.

In other words, if the vitality of the body is strong enough, the magical activity of the soul will decrease accordingly, and vice versa.

Nico Flamel usually looks shaky because he needs strong magical activity to operate alchemy.

But now, he looks like a man in his prime because he wants to take care of and assist Dumbledore.

If he was still in a trembling body and mentally okay, his body would definitely not be able to endure it.
