The Necromancer of Hogwarts

"The tree of life diagram..."

Xiang Yu's eyes flashed. When he was in Romania, he seemed to have read this in some vampire mythology.

This tree of life diagram seems to be able to create a kind of life called an apostle, which is more powerful than the perfect creature created by Stone Ghost Face that can continuously evolve.

If perfect creatures are equivalent to special forces selected from thousands of people, then apostles are equivalent to kings of soldiers.

Sir Asimov snapped his fingers: "Yes, it is the Tree of Life Array, also known as the Kabbalah Tree of Life. It is an alchemical formula created by an ancient sect."

"This alchemical formula is also one of the most famous lost formulas in the world of alchemy."

"If someone can restore it, even a little bit, it will be enough to be called the current god of alchemy."

"Because the effect of this spell is to create a creature comparable to a god - an apostle!"

Xiang Yu showed a curious expression and continued to ask Sir Asimov: "Apostle? What is this? Is it more powerful than a dragon?"

Sir Asimov laughed loudly: "Dragon? Of course dragons are powerful, but in front of the apostles, dragons are just bigger bugs."

"All life in the world has flaws. Whether it is humans, fairies, or dragons, they all have their own flaws, and they are far from perfect."

"But the Tree of Life Array can make up for the shortcomings of all life, making this life extremely sublime, close to the essence of extraordinary power, and possessing the power to control the fields of earth, fire, water, wind, space and even time!"

"It is said that in a great battle during the mythical years, the Tree of Life Array formed a continuous pattern. Hundreds of apostles were dispatched to seal a terrifying existence capable of destroying civilization in the bottomless abyss. This way you know the Tree of Life Array. How powerful is the picture?"

Xiang Yu nodded slightly.

Sir Asimov patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, don't think too much. Restoring the tree of life diagram is not within your reach. You just need to learn some basic alchemy from me first."

"I'll take you to test your talent in alchemy first. Although you don't have any knowledge of alchemy now, you might have good talent, and it's not impossible to become an alchemy master in the future."

"Let's go."

With that said, Sir Asimov led the way, taking Xiang Yu to a messy place filled with all kinds of magic materials.

Sir Asimov rummaged around on the workbench for a long time before he found a strange metal plate engraved with countless small patterns and placed it in front of Xiang Yu.

"This metal plate is engraved with some special lines in alchemy. Through them, you can test your sensitivity to various fields of alchemy and judge your talent."

"Concentrate your energy to observe, draw these lines in your mind, and then draw them on white paper as quickly as possible."

"The most accurate texture you draw means that you have the highest talent in this genre."

"Get ready and start quickly."

Xiang Yu nodded.

Since it's a talent test, it's a bit like an entrance exam, so I shouldn't use the power of Rune El, otherwise it would be too boring. Rune El's power allows him to observe all lines in detail, making him a fish in water in various fields that require fine control such as alchemy.

But since this is an exam, it's better not to cheat.

This time Xiang Yu wanted to see his true talent in alchemy.

He picked up the metal plate and concentrated on observing the lines on the metal plate as Sir Asimov said.

These lines all have strange trajectories, which contain various meanings, giving Xiang Yu a completely different feeling.

Most of the traces were blurry in Xiang Yu's eyes, and only a few were relatively clear.

Xiang Yu's brows wrinkled slightly, but soon relaxed.

It's okay, this should be normal.

It is normal for the entrance examination to be a little more difficult. Being able to see so many lines clearly should be considered a genius.

“The next step is to memorize them and then draw them on paper as quickly as possible.”

Xiang Yu picked up the quill and started drawing on a piece of parchment.

Follow the exam techniques from his previous life.

In this kind of exam, you must first make sure you get all the points you can get, and then think about overcoming the difficulties.

Xiang Yu painted easily and freely on the parchment, carving out the lines that impressed him most, and then went on to carve out those lines that were less clear.

As for the problems encountered in the process, it doesn't matter. Xiang Yu also has experience in his previous life to refer to.

When you're confused about what your next stroke will look like, mentally recall the four most likely shapes and then make your choice based on the following principles.

Three long and one short choose the shortest, and three short and one long choose the longest.

If both are long and two short, choose b; if they are both long and short, choose a.

Choose d for different lengths, uneven and invincible.

Following this trick, Xiang Yu smoothly drew all the patterns he could think of on the paper, and then handed it over to Sir Asimov.

Sir Asimov looked at the parchment intently for a long time, then let out a long breath.

"Great, the world is indeed fair."

"Like Lucius, God gave you wealth, but deprived you of your talent in alchemy. You are a mediocre alchemist."

Then he remembered something and quickly said to Xiang Yu: "Don't be discouraged."

"You have money and alchemy. If you spend more gold, you will definitely become stronger."

Xiang Yu remained unmoved.

He was thinking about a question.

Why should I give up using the power of Rune El?

It's like an entrance exam. Of course, it's not easy to use a portable calculator or look up information on your mobile phone.

But can Rune El be the same?

This is the power of being one with yourself.

Just like in a novel, the protagonist has some kind of chip or some kind of modifier in his head.

Can it be called cheating if something grows in your head?

This is obviously his own ability.

If you don't use this during the entrance exam, wouldn't it be equivalent to tying yourself up to compete with others? It's natural that the result will be bad.

After figuring this out, a trace of Rune El flashed in Xiang Yu's eyes.

He picked up the metal plate, and after two or three breaths, he began to draw on the parchment again.

This time, Sir Asimov couldn't help but feel a flash of shock in his eyes as he looked at the lines that Xiang Yu was constantly completing.

"how can that be?!"
