Chapter 767 Nick Flamel (Seeking Monthly Pass Recommendation Ticket)

Chapter 767 Nick Flamel (Seeking Monthly Pass Recommendation Ticket)
While the young wizards were enjoying their vacation to the fullest, Anduin quietly left the manor and came to a coffee shop next to the opera house on the south bank of the Seine in Paris, France.

Here, Anduin saw Dumbledore who had been waiting for a long time. The strange appearance of the old man did not attract the attention of the Muggles around him. He knew that the other party must have used magic to influence the crowd.

"Good afternoon." Seeing Anduin walk in, Dumbledore waved the coffee cup in front of him and gestured to him.

"You came so early, I thought I was late." Anduin could see that Dumbledore had been in the shop for a long time.

"No way, I really can't resist the delicious coffee. This shop has been in business in Paris for more than 50 years. I suggest you try it too." Dumbledore put down his cup and smacked his lips.

"Sounds good, but let's get down to business first."

"Hehe, young people are full of energy, unlike old men like me who only know how to enjoy themselves." Dumbledore stood up and patted his robes, "Come on, let's go there now."

After finishing speaking, Dumbledore led Anduin through the back door of the coffee shop, and kept shuttling through the alleys of the residential area until they reached a very inconspicuous dead-end alley.

"Nick Flamel lives in this kind of place?"

Anduin raised his eyebrows in surprise. He thought that the legendary alchemist would stay in some deep mountain forest. Dumbledore would apparate him after calling him here. Who would have thought that he would I went to that coffee shop purely because it was close.

"Otherwise, although Nick is living in seclusion, it doesn't mean that he likes to be a wild crane. This kind of place located in the center of the city and quite quiet is more hidden than the wilderness." Dumbledore smiled at Anduin, Then he pulled out his wand and pointed it at the void, as if to convey some message.

Is this the so-called big hermit in the city?Anduin nodded silently in his heart. No wonder people always saw Nick in places like the opera house in the literature. It seems that the other party is not the kind of person who is ascetic.

And shortly after Dumbledore released the signal, the air seemed to be opened, and a piece of parchment the size of a palm floated out, and immediately fell into the hands of the old man.

Immediately after, Dumbledore showed Anduin the contents of the note, which contained an address, apparently Nick's home was also protected by the Fidelity Curse.

After looking at the address, the blind alley in front of him suddenly disappeared, and a three-story cottage with a rustic style appeared in front of him. There was even a ridiculously surrounded yard around the cottage.

Such a building appeared in the center of Paris, which surprised Anduin. This Mr. Flamel seems to have a lot of mischief, and he actually made the residence so out of tune with the surrounding style.

"Hey, Nick, Perenal!" Dumbledore greeted loudly as soon as he entered the yard, not worried that his voice would disturb the residents outside the yard.

Following his call, an old man opened the door. Nick Mailer looked very thin, with white hair that just reached his shoulders, and his skin was much paler than normal people, but his complexion looked good. Although there are wrinkles on the face, they are not obvious.

And his wife, Perenal, who is behind him, is in a similar state to Nick. She looks like a well-maintained old woman. Judging from her appearance, she must have been a beauty when she was young.

"Albus, long time no see. Perenal just made a can of honey toffee two days ago, and it tastes amazing." Nick looked at Dumbledore with a smile.

"That would be great." Dumbledore laughed heartily. "I've always missed Perenal's craft."

"Beautiful things are always rare if someone shares them." Nick laughed, and then looked at Anduin next to him, "This is the Anduin you have been talking about all the time. He is really a talent. You are even more handsome, and your accomplishments in alchemy are even more impressive, maybe you will be able to surpass me in a short time."

"You're too much." Anduin reservedly saluted slightly, "Mr. Flamel is a legend in the hearts of all alchemists, how dare I compare with you."

For Nicole Flamel, Anduin had complicated emotions. He had admiration and admiration for the legendary alchemist, but at the same time, he secretly feared him.

You must know that according to the information he has learned, this old man may have a vague connection with the plague that happened hundreds of years ago, and the position of the other party is still unknown in Anduin's eyes.

As for Anduin's modesty, Nick was very calm.

"You don't need to belittle yourself." Nick smiled and shook his head, "You know, I am a loyal customer of Silver Flash Trading Company, and many of your works make me, an old antique, feel very novel. By the way, what's the 'magic' in the newspapers? Net'? When will you roll out in France, I can't wait."

"Okay, stop complimenting each other here." Perenal smiled and waved at the two, "Let's chat in the room instead of standing around stupidly."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Nick snorted slightly, "I'm sorry, people like to be long-winded when they are old. It wasn't Perenal who reminded me that I forgot to greet the guests."

Immediately, the LeMay couple opened the door and led the two into the room. Once inside, Anduin found that there was no magic used to expand the space, and it was actually an ordinary house.

Even in his perception, the hut itself did not apply any extra protective magic, and even the most basic floo network was not connected.

"Come on, sit down. Perenal and I don't like an environment that's too exaggerated, so the place isn't big, so make do with it." Nick pointed to the small living room.

Although the space here is not big, it is decorated very warmly and has a strong atmosphere of life.

After sitting down, Nick took the lead in chatting with Dumbledore about the daily life. The two sometimes recalled the past, and sometimes shared their recent situation, which made Anduin see the sincerity of the friendship between the two.

As for Anduin, Nick showed great curiosity. From time to time, he took out the products he bought from Silver Flash Trading Company from the side drawer, and discussed the topic of alchemy with Anduin.

When talking about the uniqueness of the props, Nick was not stingy with his words of praise.

From the simple communication, Anduin can feel that Nick's alchemy attainments are indeed extraordinary, and many techniques that he only understood after years of research are the same as handy crafts in the eyes of the other party.

From the perspective of craftsmanship and technology alone, Nick's accumulation has reached the peak level, which allows Anduin to absorb a lot of valuable experience from the other party's unconscious words.

These include the history of various runes and spells, unpopular combinations, and some unique techniques for making alchemical items, etc.

"On this 'Children's Mirror', you actually used the rare 'Soul Tracing' rune to peep through the wizard's soul to see the past images. From the perspective of creativity, it is really a masterpiece."

Nick was full of praise.

"And you actually only sell this item for 5 galleons. It must be cheaper in the UK, but at such a cheap price, the spells inscribed in each 'children's mirror' are exactly the same. I don't know that. something that can be done.”

After admiring, Nick suddenly shook his head, "Unfortunately, the 'Soul Tracing' rune on this 'children's mirror' is incomplete."

"But it's no wonder. The creator of this spell, Morgan Le Fay, is a figure of the same age as Merlin. It is really difficult to pass on the spell completely."

Then Nick looked at Anduin with a smile again, "You're lucky, I happen to have the complete charm of 'Soul Tracing' here, I'll give it to you as a gift in a while."

"What you said is true?" Anduin was overjoyed when he heard the words, he didn't expect to gain so much from Nick.

'Soul Tracing' is an incomplete spell picked up from an ancient book during Anduin's travels, and its full function is now unknown.

After long-term research, Anduin has only developed two basic functions of observing the soul and looking back at the appearance through the soul.

The technique used to observe Voldemort's soul before was also obtained from "soul tracing".

But other than that, the incomplete 'soul tracing' has no other effect, and even because the structure of the spell is too complicated, the possibility of restoration is extremely slim.

Therefore, in Anduin's eyes, "soul tracing" is very tasteless. For this reason, he just made a toy like a children's mirror, and the income generated can't even compensate for the time he wasted.

And Nick actually has a complete 'soul tracing' spell here, which is really great news for him.

What made him even more unexpected was that the other party was willing to give it to him. Given the rarity of this spell, it was no less than an original rune.

"Naturally, this kind of dead thing doesn't have any family for me now, and I'm also looking forward to what amazing works you can make with it."

Nick laughed heartily, as if it was just an oddity.

"Thank you so much." Anduin nodded sincerely, then as if remembering something, he took out the wooden box containing the Philosopher's Stone from his body, "I'm sorry, I was so engrossed in talking with you that I forgot to take this Treasures shall return to their original owners."

"Ah, it's the Philosopher's Stone. In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't return it so early. The elixir of life can be used for a long time."

Nick opened the wooden box and glanced at it casually, then looked at Anduin curiously, "You must have studied the Philosopher's Stone for a long time, I wonder if you didn't get any special inspiration from it?"

"This is indeed a treasure of alchemy." Anduin made no secret of his love for the Philosopher's Stone, "With its near-infinite magic power and extremely pure life energy, owning it is equivalent to mastering infinite possibilities."

"Do you even have research on life energy? What an amazing young man." Nick turned his head to look at his wife, "When I was Anduin's age, I was just a man who couldn't even engrave runes clearly. What a fool."

Perenal looked at her husband, then fixed her eyes on the Philosopher's Stone, and squeezed out a smile on her calm face, "You said the same thing when you saw Albus, now you praise others in front of others, That's not very polite."

Nick laughed when he heard the words, "Haha, young people can surpass the older generation. This is a symbol of progress in the wizarding world. I think Albus thinks so too."

"That's right." Dumbledore nodded in agreement, "As an educator, wouldn't it be our dereliction of duty if the young people are not as good as the next generation?"

Then Dumbledore added another sentence, "But even so, what Anduin can achieve is beyond my expectations, which is why I often mention him to you, you have to help me take care of him Him."

The meaning of Dumbledore's words is very obvious. He hopes that Nick Flamel can guide Anduin.

"I trust your vision." Nick nodded at Dumbledore, and then looked at Anduin again, "The Sorcerer's Stone is indeed a treasure. I wonder if you have ever thought of becoming its owner?"

"Its current owner is you." Anduin looked at Nick indifferently, "And to me, what is more important about the Philosopher's Stone is its research value."

"Is the research worth it? It's exactly the same as me back then..."

Nick muttered something to himself, and at the same time stared intently at Anduin's eyes, as if he wanted to see the clue.

"It seems that you are more sober than I thought, and your willpower is surprisingly firm. No wonder you can achieve today's achievements." Nick nodded in satisfaction.

"But since you're talking about research value, what do you think is the most fascinating value of the Philosopher's Stone?"

Anduin also stared at Nick at that time, and then said softly as if there was something in his words, "That's naturally the way to make the Philosopher's Stone, I hope it's not what I imagined."

Nick and Perenal were slightly taken aback when they heard the words, and looked at each other involuntarily, then Perenal suddenly turned his head and smiled at Dumbledore, "Albus, why don't you come here and follow me to the kitchen, Try some of my newly prepared desserts, you are an expert in this area, and I would like to hear your opinion."

Try dessert?Is it necessary to go to the kitchen to test it?Why don't you bring it out and let's try it together?
Dumbledore was a little puzzled, but he also saw that Nick seemed to have something to say to Anduin alone, so he nodded in agreement.

After Dumbledore and Perenal left the living room, Nick looked at Anduin again, "It seems that you already have your own guess about the method of making the Sorcerer's Stone, can you share it with me?"

Anduin saw Perenal's behavior of dismissing Dumbledore, and he already had a judgment in his heart, then stared straight at Nick with a straight face, and murmured, "The Black Death!"
