The day of the duel at Hogwarts

Antonis has left.

But Sean was still sitting in his seat, holding a pencil in his hand and quickly drawing various alchemical formations on the draft paper in front of him.

It's just that no matter how Sean draws it, these alchemy formations can never be completed. He is always just a little bit close, but the result is completely wrong.

click...

The nose tip of the pencil was broken. Sean looked at the pencil that had punctured the scratch paper. He took a deep breath and replaced it. Then he looked at the scratch paper in front of him, recalling Antonis's guidance just now, exhaled, and relaxed his mind and body. Calmly, I changed a piece of scratch paper, and then the pencil fell on it.

The strokes are smooth and unhindered.

With one stroke, the simplest five-pointed star alchemy array is completed.

At this moment, the alchemy array drawn by Sean emitted a faint red light, and soon the red light turned into wisps of flames, instantly burning the draft paper on which the alchemy array was drawn.

Become!

It's finally done!

Sean leaned on the back of the chair behind him, a smile finally appearing on his face.

At that moment, he finally found what his teacher said was the feel for drawing an alchemy array. Although this feel was still very weak, it was real and belonged to Sean. As long as he practices diligently in the future, he will be able to There will no longer be any shackles on the issue of drawing the alchemy array.

"Phew...it's finally done.

Then the next step is to send the letter to the principal and see if the principal can send the letter to Nico Flamel. "

After packing up his things, Sean left the classroom on the third floor. Instead of going back to the Slytherin common room, he chose to go directly to the Owlery in the West Tower, found an owl at random, and dictated Antonis, Sean's handwritten letter was given to the owl to be delivered to Headmaster Dumbledore.

The owl was a little confused, but still followed Sean's instructions and flew out of the owl loft, then flew around Hogwarts and landed outside the window of the principal's office.

When Dumbledore spotted the Hogwarts owl outside the window and took the letter from the owl, Sean had already returned to the Slytherin common room and returned to his room to wash up.

After letting the owl go, Dumbledore took the letter and sat at the desk. He reached out and rubbed the letter gently to make sure there was no magic or curse attached to it. Then he opened the letter and read it.

At this moment, the portraits of the former and former principals behind Dumbledore also looked at the letter in Dumbledore's hand. Phineas, the most impatient one, immediately said to Dumbledore: "Dumbledore, who wrote you a letter? It was actually delivered to you by the school's owl. Could it be that someone wrote to you in school?"

Opening the letter, Dumbledore smiled and said: "You are right, Phineas, this letter was really sent by someone from the school, but I don't know what his purpose was for giving me this letter. .”

Upon hearing Dumbledore's words, Delise de Winter, the principal of Hogwarts more than a hundred years ago and a former student of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies, immediately said to Dumbledore: "Dumbledore, I I think it’s better for you to be more cautious. Those enemies you hide in secret may not put a curse or poison on the letter.”

As soon as he said these words, Phineas immediately said loudly: "How could Dumbledore not know about this kind of thing? If I guessed correctly, Dumbledore has already tested this letter."

"Phineas, you disgust me!"

"There are so many people who hate me, who are you?"

"Okay, be quiet! Phineas, if you provoke other people again, then I will only be able to lock you in the frame for a while."

After hearing Dumbledore's words, Phineas immediately gave in and kept silent.

The office became quiet again, and Dumbledore took the letter out of the envelope. He opened the letter and looked at the contents. As he looked at it, Dumbledore's expression also changed. Although he was not very good at He is a man of alchemy, but as a great wizard who discovered the twelve uses of dragon's blood, his academic ability goes without saying. Of course Dumbledore can see that the explanation of alchemy in this letter is related to the Philosopher's Stone. The understanding of the content is not something that an ordinary alchemist can possess. This must be a master of alchemy, and not an ordinary master.

Of course, there is another reason why Dumbledore attaches great importance to this letter. The letter is signed by Anthony Hopkins. If Dumbledore remembers correctly, this is the greatest person in the era before Nicolas Flamel. There is no such thing as an alchemist!

"Dexter, if I remember correctly, there should have been an alchemist named Anthony Hopkins in your time, right?"

Dexter can be regarded as the very senior principal in the portrait. He originally looked drowsy, but when he suddenly heard Dumbledore's words, he seemed to wake up from his sleep, and when he did When he understood what Dumbledore said, he immediately replied: "Yes, in our era, alchemy was almost independent of the magical world. Alchemy in that era was very popular. Many smart wizards and Muggles devoted themselves to alchemy. In the art of alchemy, it was a golden age of alchemy, and the only alchemist recognized by everyone in that era was Antonis Hopkins!"

"In this way..." Dumbledore was silent for a moment, then raised the letter in his hand and spoke again: "The signature of this letter is Antonis Hopkins. I suspect that this letter may actually be related to He has some connections.”

"This is impossible. The Magic Stone did not exist in that era, so it was naturally impossible to create an elixir of immortality. He could not have lived for such a long time! Moreover, his death has been confirmed, there is no doubt about it!"

"It's not necessarily the ones who are alive now and can spend a long time. There are ghosts, right? Dexter!"

"Ghost?" Dexter was silent for a while, then looked at Dumbledore again and said, "Dumbledore, what is the purpose of sending you this letter?"

"He wanted me to deliver the letter to Nico. It seemed like he wanted to communicate with Nico."

"Dumbledore, are you sure there is nothing wrong with this letter?"

Nodding, Dumbledore said: "Of course, I'm sure it's okay."

"Then give the letter to Nico Flamel! Maybe we can't tell whether it's true or false, but Nico Flamel can definitely tell whether this person is the Antonis Hopkins. Anything can be faked, but knowledge cannot be faked.”

Hearing Dexter's words, Dumbledore immediately nodded and said calmly: "Then let's do it. I'm looking forward to Nico's answer!"
