Chapter 429 The news of Nicole May and the Philosopher's Stone
Why didn't Albert just tell himself what the Philosopher's Stone was?
Before falling asleep, Hermione kept thinking about this problem.
Pretending to be mysterious?
This is quite similar to what Albert likes to do.
Or does this matter have a deeper meaning?
In fact, Hermione didn't think that Albert liked to do irrelevant things, so she decided to find time to figure things out. Then she would know why he did what he did?
However, Hermione soon discovered that the Philosopher's Stone was just like Nico Flamel in that she couldn't find any useful information at all. What made Hermione even more discouraged was that she found that she still knew nothing about many things.
.
Finally, if she really can't find it, it's worth it for Hermione to take the opportunity to ask Professor Flitwick about the Philosopher's Stone when Charms class is over.
Professor Flitwick didn't really want to answer this question, and just told Hermione that the Philosopher's Stone involves ancient alchemy, a magical substance with amazing functions.
From Professor Flitwick's tone of voice, Hermione smelled something unusual. She could be said to be one of Professor Flitwick's favorite students. Every time she asked a question, Professor Flitwick would be happy to help answer it.
.
What's wrong with the Philosopher's Stone?
"What are you doing with Professor Flitwick?"
When Hermione left the Charms classroom, Harry and Ron were waiting for her in the armor corridor outside the Charms classroom.
"Alchemy?"
Hermione didn't seem to hear the questions from her two friends, and said to herself.
"What's up with her?"
Ron and Harry exchanged confused glances.
"have no idea."
"I know!" Hermione suddenly rushed back to the common room, making Harry and Ron who were looking at her back even more confused. After they looked at each other, they could only follow helplessly.
After returning to the Gryffindor common room, Hermione immediately ran back to the girls' dormitory, picked up a huge old book from her bedside table, and reappeared in front of Harry and Ron.
"Why didn't I think of looking here?" Hermione was very excited. "I should have thought of it last night."
"What are you looking for, Nico Flamel?" Harry asked confused.
"Where did you get this book?" Ron was more curious about this question. He was not a person who liked reading books. This huge book made him feel dizzy.
"I borrowed this from the library for fun a few weeks ago." Hermione flipped through the book quickly.
"For recreation?" Ron looked at Hermione in horror and said, "I dare say you must be crazy."
"Ron, don't disturb me."
Hermione asked the two of them to keep quiet and let her look up information. The girl muttered words and began to turn the pages of the book quickly.
"I found the Philosopher's Stone. Harry, I also found Nicolas Flamel!" When Hermione found the information about the Philosopher's Stone, she was very shocked to see that its maker was actually Nicolas Flamel.
At the same time, I also think what Albert said back then was a bit intriguing.
"Nicolas Flamel, have you found him?" Harry leaned his head over to see Nico Flamel's information, but was pushed away by Hermione.
"Stop tempting people and tell us the news about Nico Flamel." Ron urged.
Hermione ignored him and lowered her voice and began to read a passage from the book, "Nicolas Flamel is the only known maker of the Philosopher's Stone. Well, no wonder Albert said what was on that piece of parchment.
is fake."
"What stone?" Harry and Ron were both confused.
"Philosopher's Stone, do you still remember the content on the parchment I asked Albert to translate? It contains the recipe for making the Philosopher's Stone." Hermione explained.
She already understood why Albert asked her to look up information about the Philosopher's Stone, but Hermione was still a little confused. Why did Albert tell them the news?
"Ancient alchemy involves the refining of the magic stone, a magical substance with amazing functions. The magic stone can turn any metal into pure gold, and can also make..."
"The Sorcerer's Stone can turn gold!" Ron's voice raised an octave, interrupting Hermione's words with a scream. He put his head to the book in disbelief, wanting to see for himself whether this was true or not.
"That's what it says above, and please don't interrupt me." Hermione glared at Ron with dissatisfaction and continued reading, "It can also create an elixir of life so that people who drink it will never die.
."
"What makes a person... immortal?" Harry felt that he must have heard wrong.
"Don't interrupt me." Hermione was very dissatisfied with being interrupted repeatedly and continued reading: "Over the centuries, there have been many reports about the Philosopher's Stone, but currently the only remaining Philosopher's Stone belongs to the famous
Alchemist Mr. Nico Flamel..."
"Oh my God, he actually lived to be six hundred and sixty-five years old?" Harry felt that all this was like a dream. Could it be that the Philosopher's Stone really allowed people to live that long?
"It should be true." Ron said without thinking, there are indeed many magical things in the magic world.
"That big dog must be guarding Nico Flamel's Philosopher's Stone!" Hermione said with certainty.
"But why is the Philosopher's Stone with Dumbledore?" Ron asked confused.
"I may know why!"
This time, it was Harry who ran back to the boys' dormitory. When he came back, he had a chocolate frog card in his hand. This was Dumbledore's chocolate frog card.
"I told you, I've seen this name somewhere before," Harry said excitedly, waving the chocolate frog card in his hand: "Look at this!"
He handed the card to Ron, who began to read the text on the back of the card: "Dumbledore's well-known contributions include: defeating the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, discovering the twelve uses of dragon's blood,
Great work on alchemy with partner Nico Flamel!'"
"I dare say that Nico Flamel asked Dumbledore to keep the Philosopher's Stone for him, because they are good friends, and Dumbledore must have known that someone was trying to find the Philosopher's Stone. That's why he took the Philosopher's Stone from the ancient spirit
The pavilion has been transferred." Hermione looked very excited, as if she had won the first place in the exam.
"A stone can turn gold into a treasure that can also make you immortal!" Harry took a deep breath and said, "No wonder Snape is also thinking about it!"
"Anyone would want it!"
Ron imagined that he had a pile of gold, and his saliva almost flowed out.
"Albert must have known about the Philosopher's Stone for a long time. He might also be thinking about the Philosopher's Stone, so he didn't want to tell us about it." Harry felt that with Albert's ability, he might actually have it.
Find a way to get the magic stone.
"Harry, Albert told us about the Philosopher's Stone." Hermione didn't agree with Harry's point of view at all. If Albert really didn't want him to know about the Philosopher's Stone, he wouldn't have told us about the Philosopher's Stone.
Make the recipe for yourself.
"Didn't he say that the formula was fake?" Ron's mind was full of magic stones and gold, and he didn't even realize what he was talking about.
"However, I agree with Harry. If I were him, I would definitely find a way to get the Sorcerer's Stone." Ron looked at Harry and said, "We can cooperate with Albert to get the Sorcerer's Stone together. I
I bet Fred and George must know about it."
"I think Albert will definitely not steal Professor Dumbledore's Philosopher's Stone." Hermione did not agree with what the two said. She felt that Albert might know many things that they did not know.
