Self-cultivation of the traveler of the world

"... There is an old saying in China, that is, you will not be rewarded without merit, and I will not accept your gift for nothing.

Besides, I am more interested in the method of making it than this mamalai stone! "

As he spoke, he looked up at the smiling Nicolas May, and said:

"As for this thing, let's leave it to Professor Dumbledore!"

Hearing Wang Xuebin's words, the smile on Nicole May's face became even happier. He looked down at the old man who had accompanied him for more than six centuries, shook his head, and sighed in a slightly regretful tone:

"Unfortunately, you missed the opportunity to be the closest to longevity...

But I'm also very fortunate that Albus's trust is not wrong, you are a man of courage! "

Looking at Nicole May's look of regret mixed with reminiscence, Wang Xuebin felt that it was not judging him, but Nicole May himself.

Obviously, Nicolas May has not always been able to give up his life without hesitation to welcome another unknown journey as he is now.

"Really? Maybe!"

Regarding Nicolas May's admiration, Wang Xuebin shrugged slightly, noncommittal, reached out and took out a glass jar, put the Philosopher's Stone into the jar, placed it on the coffee table, and then took out a stack of parchment, and handed it to the table, sincerely said:

"Professor Dumbledore specifically reminded me that you are the greatest master alchemist of our time before he came here, let me not miss the opportunity to ask you for advice!

Coincidentally, here is a game I designed to train students' actual combat ability. Now I have the opportunity to communicate with you face to face, so I would like to ask for your advice! "

"Oh? Let me see?"

Hearing Wang Xuebin's words, Nicole May's curiosity was attracted. He picked up the parchment, put on the glasses that had been hanging around his neck, raised his arms from a distance, and looked carefully.

"...two factions, ten little wizards... defending the city wall...a good idea..."

After carefully reading the rules of the game, Nicolas took off his glasses and said in admiration:

"I believe that the popularity of the game you invented will definitely become a sport no less than Quidditch!

Perhaps, we can also consider re-promoting the Triwizard Tournament, replacing the three levels of Warriors with a battle game invented by you!

In this way, it is safe and can exercise children's comprehensive ability, which can be described as the best of both worlds!

What a great idea, I can't wait to see him take shape! "

"But it's still just an idea on paper after all!"

Hearing Nicole May's praise, Wang Xuebin didn't feel complacent. He looked up at the excited old man in front of him, and said softly:

"If you want to turn it from an idea on paper into a practical plan, you can't do without your help!

Whether it's soldier lines, neutral creatures, or blood volume mechanisms and defensive walls, it is inseparable from the participation of alchemy. When it comes to alchemy, whether it is me or Professor Dumbledore, the first thing that comes to mind is you!

We couldn't think of a more suitable person than you! "

Hearing Wang Xuebin's words, the excited Nicole May froze immediately, and his face gradually became embarrassed. He looked at the parchment in his hand, sighed softly, and said regretfully after all:

"To be honest, if you had come here 20 years earlier, I wouldn't have been so embarrassed... Now I don't have the energy to do alchemy experiments... I'm old..."

The saddest thing in the world is that a hero is twilight, a beauty turns gray,

Looking at the indelible melancholy on this old man who was over six centuries old, perhaps, he guessed the fundamental purpose of Dumbledore's asking him to visit France...

"...if you don't mind...perhaps...I can be a very good student..."

Chapter 495 Alchemy

——'Alchemy, a very rigorous and complex science, is not easy to define. The wizarding world often defines it as a skill aimed at transforming base metals into gold, or preparing immortality potions.

But in my opinion, this is only the most superficial explanation on the technical level of alchemy, and it must not give an overview of the full meaning of alchemy. '

The wide playground behind Beauxbatton Palace was originally a field for students to play Quidditch, but now it is filled with low walls surrounded by piles of stones and vines, covering an area of ​​nearly two acres.

——'The knowledge involved in alchemy is extremely extensive and profound, and it can be said to be the world's first cosmology.

In Hermeticism, alchemy, astrology, and supernatural powers are listed as the three major wisdoms of the universe. Therefore, Hermes in Greek mythology is also revered as the ancestor of alchemy!

Of course, according to my research, the birthplace of alchemy is Egypt and Arabia, not Greece. As for why some people always think that alchemy originated from Greece...

I think, it should be because alchemy really flourished in the West with the help of the influence of the School of Athens...'

The square battlefield has three lines of soldiers, and each line of soldiers has a series of towering defensive walls.

Each city wall emits a special kind of fluctuation at all times. Once a non-own unit approaches, it will reduce the unit's defense mechanism.

Whether it's a wizard or a steady stream of alchemy puppets, once the defense mechanism is exhausted, it will turn into a statue, summoned back to the spring water through the apparition mechanism to replenish the state!

——'The foundation of alchemy is the same as that of magic, both are cuneiform characters!

It is a kind of hieroglyphs with magical power. People can get incredible power from it through writing, reading, understanding, memorizing, etc. This is the prototype of a wizard!

People in ancient times obtained the magical power of magic by studying various cuneiform characters.

But with the development of time, magical power gradually became entangled with bloodlines, and the inheritance of power no longer relied on knowledge, but on bloodlines. Since then, cuneiform writing is no longer the only way to master magical powers.

It is precisely because of this reason that the cuneiform characters of Jiquqianya gradually declined, and the way of casting spells with the help of cuneiform characters was also abandoned by the wizards whose blood was their inheritance.

The emerging blood wizard invented a method of casting spells based on emotion and will, guided by Latin affixes. This method is the source of the spells we see today...'

Three soldier lines and a river divide the square battlefield into four areas, each area has neutral wild monsters of different sizes.

When wizards defeat these wild monsters, they can increase the defense mechanism of themselves and their companions to gain an advantage.

But if you are killed by wild monsters, your own defense mechanism will be weakened for a period of time. Both the enemy and yourself can use wild monsters as the core to design different strategies and tactics to fight.

The wild monsters and terrains in the four areas are different, such as mountains, forests, lakesides, and urban areas, which will be randomly changed every once in a while.

Everything is not for fairness, but for simulating various actual combat environments as realistically as possible.

After all, Wang Xuebin and Nicole May both know that this game is not about winning or losing, but about exposing students to real combat. If you blindly demand fairness and ignore actual combat, then the cart before the horse!

——'...However, the good times didn't last long.

While people were cheering for the easy and convenient new magic, some people suddenly discovered that with the iteration of the blood, the magic power of the newborn was not as good as before.

The number of squibs and untalented people is increasing, and the power of new wizards is becoming weaker and weaker.

The magicians who once dared to stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods, those wizards who could create a city by themselves, now struggle to create a block.

The wizards are starting to panic...

They want to find out why, but it's too late...

The cuneiform script has been lost, and the wizarding world can't even find a person who can read the cuneiform script, so the turmoil began...'

The students participating in the battle can use any magic at will through the special magic wand. When the magic is judged to be successfully used by the magic wand, the special wand will emit corresponding sound and light special effects, and the defense mechanism of the student who is hit will also produce a corresponding judgment .

Either use magic spells to defend, or reduce the defense mechanism, or kill with one blow. In this game, only the strength of the students themselves is the key to truly dominating the outcome of the battlefield!

——'The rebellion of dark magic creatures, the rebellion of goblins, people who used to take dragons as pets, fell to the point where they were hunted and killed by Muggles!

The wizards were very unwilling, but there was nothing they could do. This tragic and dark decline lasted until the establishment of the first magic school - Hogwarts, and it was really relieved.

The Big Four established the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to integrate the knowledge originally passed down by the family, and opened courses about ancient runes in the academy!

This move has effectively alleviated the problem of talent reduction caused by wizard power iteration.

Every student who has learned the ancient runes, although unable to have the mighty power of the sages, can at least stop his own decline, so that his descendants will not lose the talent of using magic forever!

The blood lineage theory advocated by the current Dark Lord only really emerged during this period! '

Each soldier line has three defensive walls. By reducing the defense mechanism of the defensive wall, the defensive wall can lose its defensive effect.

Destroy all the defensive walls on a certain route, and you will be able to capture the flag representing the identity of the enemy erected in front of the local spring!

A battle is a battle, pulling down the local flag means winning a war!

——'...This is the source of alchemy and the prerequisite for learning alchemy!

The more cuneiform characters you master, the more suitable and powerful the alchemy circles you draw will be. Only when you have the ability to draw alchemy circles can you be said to have entered the door of alchemy!

As for endowing substances with activity and merging active substances to produce new substances, this is a more advanced knowledge. If you want to master these, you must at least be able to completely draw the three basic magic circles! '

Winning or losing the battle is important, but only the victory of the war is the ultimate winner!

It is very simple to win a battle, all you need is absolute strength, but to win a war, wisdom, strength, unity, sacrifice, all kinds of qualities are indispensable.

Wang Xuebin's purpose is to make the students' fighting power stronger, not to make the students afraid of war. If the weak people can't see a glimmer of hope, then they will not be able to find someone to resist!

Wang Xuebin just wants to tell them through this game, whether it is Voldemort or Dumbledore, a powerful person is not necessarily the one who can have the last laugh!

Only in this way can the Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix have enough confidence to fight, and only in this way can Wang Xuebin win enough prestige and achieve his ulterior secret when he tries his best to turn the tide.

"If...I mean if...I have the means to animate matter...how far is it from making the Philosopher's Stone...?"

Looking at the teachers and students running back and forth on the square battlefield, Nicole May frowned slightly, turned his head, looked at Wang Xuebin, and said in a deep voice:

"Alchemy is a very rigorous knowledge, one step at a time, there is no room for mistakes, there are no shortcuts!

I think it's better for you not to be so ambitious! "

Hearing this, Wang Xuebin frowned slightly, took out a gold coin, stroked it lightly with the activation technique, and handed it to Nicole May, who was frowning beside him, and said softly:

"...No other meaning, I'm just curious..."

Looking at the spiritual gold coin in his hand, Nicole May was speechless for a long time, stood dumbfounded for a long while, and finally let out a foul breath.

"Mazefak..."

Chapter 496 The End of Alchemy, Creating Life

"...Mazefak..."

On the playground behind Beauxbatton Palace, under the supervision of the professor, the students held special magic wands and used all kinds of gorgeous magic to play around.

Flowers, butterflies, music, rainbows...

The girls were running, laughing, and making noise.

Because today is Christmas, the professors didn't mean to sweep the children's sex today.

The girls joined hands and sang and danced in various charming and characteristic ditties.

The boys also wore neat costumes, held special magic wands, and fought fiercely. They sweated and tried to attract the beautiful girls dancing aside with their own charm.

A thunderbolt explodes, an oolong comes out of the hole, and a thousand arrows are fired...

A series of powerful and unrestrained spells spewed out from the special wands in the hands of the boys, and hit the guy who was also holding this kind of wand not far away.

The spells that were not allowed to be used on the students in the past, now have no scruples!

And they also found that when the wands in their hands were using magic, apart from lacking some sense of impact and deterrence, other kinds of feel were much superior to their original wands!

If this wand can be used in reality, they will definitely abandon their original wands and throw themselves into the embrace of new wands!

No way, the casting feel of this magic wand is really smooth!

Whether it is the students or the professors, they all seem to have drunk two catties of sesame oil, wishing that as soon as they shouted on one side, it would flow out naturally on the other side, and they couldn't be stopped...

As for why it is so smooth, I have to ask Wang Xuebin...

Ordinary alchemists do everything possible to refine, forge, purify, extract...

After a lot of hard work, only a tiny bit of active material can be obtained in the end.

But in Wang Xuebin's case, a simple activation technique, snapping fingers, requires as much active material as possible.

Mithril, black steel, water essence... other treasures that alchemists can't ask for, but here Wang Xuebin can use one and throw one away.

That's it, the remaining corners and corners can be squandered by an ordinary alchemist for a year or so...

It's so domineering...

Otherwise, how could Nicolas May, who has lived for 600 years, lose his composure when seeing this scene?

Mazefak is out...

"...you..."

Seeing that Nicolas was short of breath and his face was flushed, it seemed as if his whole body was about to be convulsed at any moment.

"Calm~"

Wang Xuebin hurried forward two steps, and snapped his fingers lightly in front of Nicole May.

For just a moment, Nicolas felt as if ice water had been poured on his head, and his heart felt chilled from the inside out.

"...Is it better?"

Looking at Nicole May, who was wearing rough clothes and looked like he had survived the catastrophe, Wang Xuebin couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

This old man has lived for 600 years without dying, if he falls into his own hands today, he will be in big trouble.
