Harry Potter: The Atypical Alchemist

"Why are they all jewelry?"

After Stone took out all the gifts in the suitcase, Anthony asked curiously.

"It's a specialty."

Cairo's craftsmen particularly like the combination of various colors. Turquoise, malachite, garnet, carnelian, lapis lazuli, crystal, etc. are the specialties there. When they are paired with gold and silver, they will always present an overall look. The color is very rich and shiny in parts, making it perfect for making jewelry.

Therefore, the gifts that Stone brings are very popular with girls, but they are almost meaningless for male students. Boys of this age always reject those who like exquisite jewelry, and are full of duplicity.

"Don't forget it." Stone spread his hands and said, "There aren't many of them anyway."

"Who said I don't want it anymore!" Anthony rubbed his hands, "Yes, just..."

When he was thinking of words, Anthony suddenly noticed the crystal bracelet on Stone's wrist and pointed at it:

"I want this."

"Get lost." Stone said unceremoniously, "I did this myself, do you deserve it?"

"What about me?" Penello walked over with a smile.

"Emm..." Stone grabbed his bracelet, and Anthony's eyes widened as he watched.

Just when Stone was about to pull it off, Penello put it back on for him, "It's just for fun, keep it yourself."

"Oh--"

Based on Penello's character, she would not accept benefits from others for no reason, so Stone also knew that it was just a show.

However, this did not prevent him from showing his disdain for Anthony:

"Look at others, and then look at you, you are really greedy."

"...You're cruel." Anthony walked towards the table where the gifts were placed.

"Aren't you going?" Stone asked, looking at Penello standing next to him.

"Didn't you say there aren't many? I won't join in the fun."

"really......"

"what?"

Stone did not speak, but magically took out the eagle-shaped necklace with gold and blue stone from his pocket:

"this is for you."

"Wow--"

The symbol of Ravenclaw is an eagle. This necklace was deeply liked by Penello, but she did not accept it immediately, but said with a slight worry:

"Send it to me directly? The classmates who didn't get the gift will be unhappy."

"You are the prefect, just think that I bribed you."

"Well - that makes sense!" Penello happily put on the necklace.

In fact, Ravenclaw's classmates are quite good, and they also know that it is impossible for Stone to prepare gifts for everyone due to the sudden incident, except for some close friends, such as Anthony, Parvati, Qiu Zhang and others. When the gifts arrived, the remaining ones were pushed around each other.

This makes Stone quite embarrassed.

As the last bracelet was taken away, Penello directed Anthony to turn on the projector, then turned off the magic crystal lamp in the lounge, and started the Ravenclaw designated project.

Watching the movie, Stone thought about what he would do next.

Before the vacation, he had the idea of ​​using alchemy to improve damage capabilities, and had already drawn some drawings. However, the technical means at the time did not meet the requirements, and in addition to preparing for the trip to Cairo, it was shelved for so long.

It's time to reboot.

What he planned to make was a baseball-sized, explosive alchemy object. It was filled with a large number of talismans and required more delicate operations.

The past two games have improved him a lot. [Purple Flute] does not have many talismans, and more importantly it is creative, but the talismans in [Four-Word Formula] compress the space of the talisman to the limit. of. I can’t say that I am familiar with it, but I can definitely call it experienced.

In addition, he still needs to buy some more tools, the most important of which is the microscope he saw at the Moon Hotel. The space inside the baseball is too small, and he doesn't want to blow himself up because of a mistake.

At the end of the movie, Stone also compiled his own list, which was basically the one in the alchemy room during the game. After returning to the dormitory, he wrote them down on paper as soon as possible.

The next day, he took his list to the library and went to the merchant newspaper to check the prices.

A complete set of medium-quality equipment costs two hundred gold galleons. He would like to upgrade it, but the next higher level of equipment is beyond what he can afford. You know, he is now a wizard with a thousand gold galleons.

"Forget it, at least I've touched the edge. Let's think about it next time." Stone mumbled and wrote the purchase letter.

The letter was written, but Nyx was not there—Nix the owl.

It is at home in Surrey and has been kept by Ms. Karina. It may not be long before it comes with snacks and letters.

Although it was not too late to buy one by then, he couldn't wait any longer and could only borrow an owl.

There is an Owl Post Office site in the school, but when it comes to purchasing goods, Stone has never used a post office, so he doesn't trust them.

He picked up the letter and walked out of the library.

As soon as he went out, he met Hermione and the others running towards him.

"Hey Stone, I knew you were here," Hermione said breathlessly.

"Congratulations on winning the championship." Ron said.

"Thank you." After thanking him, Stone looked at Hermione, "What can I do?"

"That's right, we want to ask something about alchemy."

"You are not suited to alchemy."

"It's not this!" Hermione said angrily: "It's the Philosopher's Stone. I heard that it is a product of alchemy. We want to know about it."

"Emm...I don't know either."

"Ah?" Harry asked doubtfully, "Aren't you an alchemist?"

"Alchemy is also divided into several schools. I saw two types during the competition alone." Stone explained: "As far as I know, the magic stone should be the product of ancient alchemy. This technique is also Only old guys like Nico Flamel have mastered it, and I really don’t understand it.”

"I suggest you look for it in books, but there is a high probability that you will only find ordinary introductions."

"That's it." Harry looked frustrated, "Then what should we do?"

"What should I do? Do you want to explore the secrets of alchemy?"

"No," said Harry, "we just wanted to protect it from Snape...or Quirrell."

"Then what is it and what does it matter?"

"That's right!" Harry slapped his forehead, "I'm not going to use the Sorcerer's Stone. Thank you, Stone!"

"You're welcome." Stone held out his hand, "Consulting fee, thank you. Or let me use your owl."
