Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

"What's wrong?" Nicoléme looked at Wright, whose expression suddenly became very strange, and couldn't help but asked with some doubts.

"Nothing, it's not bad." Wright shook his head, and then put down the suitcase he had been carrying. "The people of Paris are simple and hospitable. Especially the taxi drivers, they are all very cute."

Wright recalled the very talkative driver just now and felt a little funny. The black driver actually tricked a wizard like him, using Legilimency and a confusion spell. I believe that this Mediterranean gentleman will definitely have a happy and good time tonight.

"But, teacher, why did you choose to live here?" Wright looked at the environment of the house. This place is indeed completely different from Devon County.

Although Nicoléme's residence in Devonshire looks simple and unpretentious on the surface, there are still many magic props hidden in it. But Wright could tell that all the items in this room were ordinary machine industrial products. The entire room was almost exactly the same as a normal ordinary home of this era, without even a trace of historical charm.

Oh, no, the most historical person in the room is the one sitting on the sofa right now. Wright looked at Nicoléme on the sofa with calm eyes, but the thoughts in his heart were not clear.

"Haha, Wright, this is why you don't understand the subtleties of Muggle life." Nicolas Flamel didn't know what Wright was thinking, and he let out a hearty laugh, "Since the 20th century, Since the 1990s, I have changed some of my old ideas and realized that wizards and Muggles should keep pace with the times and at least adopt a cooperative attitude."

"But look at the Ministry of Magic in various countries now. Almost all of them regard the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy as a god!" Nicolas Flamel suddenly looked sarcastic. "There is also a ridiculous Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items! It's really funny. ridiculous!"

"Nowadays, most wizards still think that Muggles are imbecile creatures who can only dig in the ground. Some so-called pure-blood nobles still call them mudbloods. But in fact, if there is a fight, , I don’t have high hopes for the Wizards’ prospects,” Nicoléme said.

"I think so too." Wright nodded, "Especially in the past two hundred years, the technological level of ordinary people has developed by leaps and bounds, while relatively speaking, the wizarding world has almost reached a level of complete stagnation. …”

At this point, Wright couldn't help but shook his head.

To be honest, although Voldemort's name is loud, he has been working hard to overthrow Dumbledore and rule the British wizarding world throughout his life. But if it is really converted, the total population of the British wizarding world is less than 20,000, which means that what Voldemort wants to rule is only less than 20,000 people.

By rough comparison, he is equivalent to the mayor of an ordinary third-tier small county, and even worse than the mayor of a third-tier small county.

"That's right, Wright, you observed very carefully." Nicoléme nodded slightly, "Indeed, there are too many wizards now who can't see clearly what level they are, and their concepts are still stuck hundreds of years ago. This is A very stupid thing!"

Wright listened silently and said nothing, but he followed Nicolas Flamel to Paris not to discuss such boring issues as wizards and Muggles with him.

Wright unconsciously changed the subject: "Teacher, what are we going to learn this summer? Will we continue to use the Time Corridor props?"

"We won't be using the Time Corridor this time. It was originally prepared so that you could learn the basics of alchemy as quickly as possible." Nicoléme shook his head, "And time is the most elusive thing in the world. , the same is true for time props. One of the foundations of alchemy is equivalent exchange, so time props that have been used for too long need to be compensated for by other times. "

"The last time you spent a full two years in the time corridor, although you can recover quickly, the time corridor still needs a certain amount of time to cultivate." Nicoléme said.

"Huh?" Wright suddenly felt something was wrong.

According to the description in the original work, time props should not be so precious, right? Even Professor McGonagall was able to apply for a time turner for Hermione to balance Hermione's class time.

And although the time converter sounds very powerful, it involves the concept of time, which looks very high-end no matter where it is. But there is a room full of time turners in the British Ministry of Magic. Note, it is full! An entire room is filled with time-turners, big and small!

Although these time turners will be smashed by Harry and others in the Battle of the Ministry of Magic a few years later, those time turners are still safely placed there!

Seeing the puzzled expression on Wright's face, Nicolas Flamel took out a small, gray-looking black box from his pocket. Chaotic colors flashed on the surface of the box, making it appear that Extremely miraculous. Wright knew that it was a sign that represented the passage of time, and that this black box was the time corridor that Nicolas Flamel had provided to him before.

"Wright, do you know how the time corridor was made?" Nicolas Flamel asked, "and how were those time turners made?"

"Time magic? Or time creatures?" Wright replied with some confusion.

However, whether it was time magic or time creatures, Wright had never seen a real shadow, and even Wright had never seen a description of either in the Room of Requirement or in Nicolò Flamel's collection of books.

Nicoléme gently stroked the surface of the corridor of time, and the chaotic colors slowly rippled a little with his movements.

"The two methods you mentioned have a certain degree of accuracy. A very small part of the existing time props in the wizarding world were indeed made by the wizards of the previous generation through time magic, but those time magics have now been completely lost. , and those time props are also used one by one, and they are extremely precious," said Nicoléme.

"The vast majority of time props, which are the kind of time props held in large quantities by the Ministry of Magic in various countries, are made through the time magic provided by time creatures."

"Most of the time props made from the magic power provided by time creatures have certain usage time limits. In addition, the time magic power will gradually disappear with the passage of time, and wizards have never found anything good about it. There is no way to prevent this kind of disappearance, so the Ministry of Magic in various countries can only ask the time creatures to make more time props to prepare for future troubles."
