Ted had a dream, not a very good one.
A wizard like Ted will never dream easily. He is now one of the few masters of psychic powers.
So, this is an omen, a bad omen!
But there is no way, just like you know that winter is coming, except for making more preparations, there is nothing you can do to stop its arrival.
Ted thinks that he should promote the Utopia game, increase various entertainment projects, and gain more experience points?
But in the next few days, something good happened to Ted.
Dumbledore sent himself a letter and introduced an old friend to him.
With a letter of introduction and a badge, Ted came to Ivry, a suburb in the southeast of Paris, which is famous for its wine.
Dumbledore's old friend lives here.
Ted took Dumbledore's letter and read it again: "I remember that in the original book, Nico Flamel and his wife lived in seclusion in Devon County? But Dumbledore shouldn't lie to me, right?"
Yes, the old friend Dumbledore introduced to Ted was Nico Flamel.
Three years ago, when Ted and the others entered school, Nico Flamel, whom Dumbledore had met as a young man and helped him thwart Grindelwald's conspiracy, wrote to him saying that he no longer wanted to live.
Eternal life is as false a proposition as a perpetual motion machine.
How far is forever? How long is eternal life?
Although this old couple relied on the magic stone to refine the elixir of life, they lived for more than 600 years.
But their manpower is sometimes exhausted. Not only is their magic power weakening, but their vitality is also like a candle in the wind. The five human senses and emotional fluctuations have begun to gradually recede from the body. As the days go by, they feel more and more tortured.
The old couple discussed that it would be better to die peacefully than to live in vain, and give themselves some dignity!
So Flamel wrote to Dumbledore.
The main problem is the inheritance of the magic stone.
What Le May meant was that if you take the old Deng stone, you can live a few hundred more years. If you don't want to live, you will die.
But Lao Deng was very open-minded on this point...
Because of his arrogance and inadequacy when he was young, he lost his lover, his sister, his mother who became ill with worry, and his father who avenged his sister.
The only gain was his brother's hatred... Oh, his brother's son, his nephew, was gone because of Grindelwald.
He even wanted to die.
However, he still had one thing unfinished. He knew that his good student Tom must be interested in this stone.
So, he set up a game.
First, news was released that Flamel had given the Philosopher's Stone to Dumbledore and it was placed in the Gringotts treasury.
After testing himself, the good student had indeed returned and was eyeing the stone.
Later, there was Ted's experience in their first year.
Now, without the elixir of life, the old couple is approaching the end of their lives.
Due to some considerations, Dumbledore wrote to an old friend, hoping that he could give some guidance to a young man in his last moments.
Lao Deng may also have discovered that although he has been an educator for most of his life, due to his experiences as a teenager, he is not the kind of charitable teacher who is good at empathizing with others.
Maybe he wanted to "reform" Ted as much as possible with the help of his old friend's "people are good at words even when they are about to die".
No matter what he thought, Ted had to make this trip.
This is Nicol Flamel, the world's only remaining legendary alchemist.
This is true, after passing this village, there will be no such person.
Ted bought a bouquet of flowers and a bottle of good red wine, and found the address with his badge.
The addresses of wizards in Muggle society are usually hidden by magic, making it difficult to find them, let alone the legendary alchemist Nicolas Flamel?
He has lived for six hundred years and has many secret magics like the Fidelity Charm. The badge Dumbledore gave Ted is undoubtedly a token.
Sure enough, according to the method Lao Deng said in the letter, Ted summoned an arch made of roses in front of an open space by the river. After passing through, he came to the door of a small garden...
Prior to this, Ted had tested the open space more than a dozen times, using various methods, with no results or even any abnormalities.
Sure enough!
Ted pressed the badge on the iron gate, and the gate opened by itself, revealing the fragrance of birds and flowers. There was a small fountain and pool not far ahead. A sculpture of a girl was pouring a water bottle, and water gurgled out of it...
A very old-looking old man and an old lady helped each other out of the house and greeted Ted with a smile.
"Are you Ted Epiphany? Dumbledore has already told me that his opinion of you is surprisingly high." Nicolas Flamel said.
Dumbledore said in the letter: I don't want him to become the next Gellert.
Although the old man and the old lady were so old that they walked slowly and leisurely, they seemed to be in good spirits.
Since I stopped taking the elixir, although my body has been deteriorating, my spirit has become stronger.
"Good day, Mr. and Mrs. Flamel. Just call me Ted."
Ted's fluent French surprised the old couple.
The old couple had a lot of time, so they learned many languages, while Ted learned a few languages because it was too easy, so he only learned a few in his free time~
"Dumbledore has said a lot about you and welcomes you. I hope I will not disappoint you in my last moments..."
From then on, Ted continued to study alchemy with Flamel at his residence.
Six hundred years of accumulation is definitely not something that others can compare to.
Ted studies with a pious attitude and devotes 120% of his energy to studying every day.
His learning efficiency and progress also surprised Nicolas Flamel. At first, he was wondering why Dumbledore had such a high opinion of this student, but he was also a little worried. I get it now!
If it weren't for Nicolas Flamel's health, which meant he could only teach for half an hour every day, Ted would have been even more terrible at absorbing knowledge.
But even if it was only half an hour a day, it only took four days for Ted's alchemy to rise another level, reaching Alchemy Level 5 (+Level 1 Philosopher's Stone).
It greatly shortened the process and time of Ted's own research and experiments.
This is a huge improvement that Ted has not made in half a school year.
This is the difference between having a good teacher or not!
Moreover, Flamel used his own method to help Ted complete the design of the magic power source. He also praised his overall plan as very creative, but the details were still rough and there was still a lot of room for improvement... It didn't seem like a compliment. ? !
In terms of Magic Intelligence, this is no longer a problem.
Alchemists since ancient times have always had the highest goal of challenging the realm of "gods".
Break through the upper limit of the human body's lifespan, change the composition and texture of matter, and create life!
In the last step, some alchemists create a little man in a bottle. They don’t know what it is, a magic fungus or something else.
There are also alchemists who make golems!
Follow Christian mythology and create a life in your own image!
Although there are not many ideas on how to turn inorganic objects into living creatures with flesh and blood, there is a lot of research on how to make dead objects have thoughts.
Not to mention it's far away, but you probably still remember the Weasley family's classic flying car, right?
To a certain extent, that thing has its own spirituality.
And this kind of spirituality is often born in the nature of the magical world, which is various fey creatures.
Therefore, the anthropomorphic golem created by the alchemist in this regard is really like it!
How similar is it?
You can't tell the difference in conversation, you can't tell it in touch, you can't tell it in person... Alas! no! I mean, it almost simulates an independent personality!
And Ted doesn't need the kind of magical intelligence that is almost like a real person and can even think about questions such as "Where do I come from and where do I go? Where do I want to get French fries?"
He only needs simple and low-end magic intelligence.
Moreover, Flamel gave Ted a way to cultivate independent individuals, although this method had little control over the created virtual souls.
You don’t know what kind of personality you will create, but this method, which requires a long time and a lot of energy, is recognized to be effective!
Moreover, Flamel has created, invented and collected so much knowledge over the years, such as magic potion formulas, alchemical potions, alchemical reaction equations, magic prop production processes, etc.!
He even has information on the secrets of goblins that are not told outside.
There is a sense that the Langhuan Jade Cave in Manduo Mountain Villa contains the martial arts secrets of various sects.
And Ted is the kind of genius who has mastered the Nine-Yang Magic and has a photographic memory. He just glanced at it and copied it away!
However, in just half a month, Lemay and his wife have become much weaker visibly.
She is even a bit skinny. Ted has taken care of all the food for these years, and the old lady is really unable to do what she wants.
Just one evening, Ted suddenly became upset and couldn't calm down no matter what.
He had a vague suspicion in his mind that it might be time.
