The purple solution was obviously extremely corrosive. The magic gold was corroded almost instantly. Even after corroding it, the purple solution still had enough energy to leave a shallow pit on the table.
Taylor looked at the pit and was a little stunned for a moment.
This thing can even corrode magic gold... If the amount of such a powerful corrosive was a little larger, Taylor felt that it would corrode the door to Gringotts' treasure house.
"This is the result of my transformation of Doris' venom. Doris's body is only that big, and these are the amount I have been saving for almost half a year."
Doris' simple snake venom naturally does not have such terrible lethality. The basilisk's venom can destroy the soul within it, but it cannot destroy the ring itself. The ring itself was made of the rarest materials. And these precious materials are generally not just beautiful to look at.
Luke looked at the corroded pit in front of him and shook his head silently. After real contact, Luke understood what knowledge is power.
The most precious thing left behind by the Gunter family is not the lofty status, nor the subordinates scattered all over the place. But this knowledge. Although it is difficult to achieve great things without those forces. But without knowledge, the achievements of each wizard will not be too high.
Luke took out a pair of dragon skin gloves from his belt and took out a black stone from the sunken hole at lightning speed.
Taylor on the side drank the clear water like a spring with quick eyes and quick hands. Clean all the venom involved in the stone.
Luke promptly transferred the stone in his hand to the other hand while being washed by the water. At the same time, he threw the dragon leather glove on the hand that originally held the stone to the ground. Taylor glanced at the glove. I found a big hole in my fingertips and palm.
She glanced at Luke's hand worriedly, and was relieved when she found that there were no wounds on it.
Luke didn't pay attention to Taylor's movements, but concentrated on looking at the stone in front of him that was gradually returning to its normal appearance in the water flow.
He reached out his hand, picked up the stone, and placed it in front of his eyes.
A black diamond-shaped stone with a shiny surface. Other than that, there are no other features.
When Taylor, who had restrained the clear water like a spring, looked at Luke's hand. Countless legends about the Resurrection Stone came to mind.
But in fact, except for the story of Cadmus, the second of the three Peverell brothers, other stories have been falsified one by one among relevant researchers.
Almost no one who studies the Deathly Hallows is willing to admit that the Three Hallows were controlled by someone other than the three brothers.
But experts are experts after all.
They didn't know that the Elder Wand had changed hands several times and was now in Dumbledore's hands. I also didn’t know that the Invisibility Cloak had been passed down from generation to generation by the Potter family, and it was still in the hands of Harry Potter. Not to mention that the Resurrection Stone was collected by the Gaunt family and eventually returned to Luke's hands.
They have been searching for the Three Sacred Artifacts all their lives, and it can be said that they are gathered at Hogwarts at this time. And if Luke wants, he can find a way to collect these three holy weapons. Became the first person in recorded history to collect the Three Hallows of Death. ….
"Is this really the work of Death?"
Taylor looked in disbelief. Compared to Muggles, who still believe in religion and gods, wizards are atheists in the true sense. In Taylor's understanding, she would rather regard the so-called God of Death in this story as a powerful wizard.
The story of a powerful wizard seeing three brothers in trouble and making a pact with them makes much more sense.
"Dumbledore's guess is that the Three Sacred Artifacts themselves are the work of the three brothers, and the God of Death does not exist at all."
Luke held the Resurrection Stone in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, as if he was trying to spot what kind of flowers there were. Taylor also nodded when he heard this guess.
It is true that the three brothers themselves may be powerful wizards. Anyway, as long as there is no death,
, wizards always think that such stories make sense.
"I really want to take apart the Elder Wand and see what the core is inside."
Luke shook his head and placed the Resurrection Stone on the ring on his hand. As soon as the resurrection stone touched the ring body, the heads of the two snakes separated slightly. Then after Luke put the Resurrection Stone in place, the two snakes' heads tightly fixed the Resurrection Stone.
"According to family records, it is naturally not possible to resurrect a person in the true sense. Instead, it can summon the soul of the deceased and complete a dialogue with the soul."
Taylor felt like she heard something extraordinary.
Although it is not resurrection in the true sense, being able to talk to the soul of the deceased can be said to be miraculous in some cases.
After all, in the eyes of many people, there will always be people they meet but never see again.
for example……
Taylor reached out and grabbed Luke's cuff. Luke felt Taylor's pull, so he looked at Taylor quietly.
But Taylor didn't speak. There was a troubled look on his face, as if he was struggling with something. Luke didn't urge, just waited quietly.
After a long, long time, so long that Luke felt his legs were numb, Taylor finally raised his head. Her expression is quite complicated, and it can even be said that it is complicated to a certain extent.
"Luke, is this the curse of the Resurrection Stone?"
Taylor looked into Luke's eyes, into a pair of quiet and deep eyes with a trace of sadness hidden in their depths.
"It makes people look forward to death more, makes people willing to die, and makes people full of courage towards death..."
After death, everything no longer ceases. Instead, you can go to the same world with the person you miss most and live a wonderful life. That will be eternal companionship.
You miss him so much that you are even willing to find the legendary magic stone for him. So after meeting each other, would you want to be with him or her?
The Resurrection Stone will not bring the dead back to life, but it will make the living die.
Luke gently touched Taylor's head with his other hand and said with a smile, "I knew you would understand this."
"If you want, I can lend you the resurrection stone. It is the incarnation of the world's emotions. Almost all the family ties, love, and friendships you have lost can be recovered from it. But... you know, sometimes , that ray of light is not necessarily a gift to those destined to live in darkness.”….
Does Luke want to use the Philosopher's Stone to meet his parents? Of course I did. After Ruby broke the blockade on his memories, Luke's past and present lives were no longer separate from each other. Of course he wanted to meet his parents. He wanted to see the two guys who never came back after walking out of the house. He wanted to hear their explanations, wanted to hear their apologies to him, and wanted to hear...their voices.
But not now.
He is confident that he will not indulge in such beauty. But such beauty may not be his motivation.
Now he is not like Harry who had to face Voldemort directly in the original book. At that time, Harry was already prepared to die. Dumbledore gave him the Resurrection Stone, on the one hand to give him some confidence in the power of the Deathly Hallows, and on the other hand, because he knew the effect of the Resurrection Stone. After Harry met those relatives and friends who passed away. This boy with a spirit of sacrifice and a strong desire for family love would be willing to die.
But what he didn't expect was that Harry would eventually not need the courage the Resurrection Stone gave him. He missed those relatives, but following them was not the reason why he died happily.
He has a more noble reason, for protection and justice.
That Luke would enjoy being friends with Harry. No matter what shortcomings Harry seems to have now, he is a righteous man. A person worth getting to know deeply.
Luke never failed to see the good in others. He knew very well that the best thing about Harry was that you could trust him with your descendants.
Of course, in addition to these, there are naturally some off-site factors in the communication between Luke and Harry.
. For example, curiosity about whether he can change Harry's destiny. Also, after Harry realizes who he is, will he fight with himself or stand with him?
As for Taylor's confusion, he can completely understand it. He could even think that if there was not only Taylor here, but also Taylor's grandma, would grandma give up the opportunity to use the Resurrection Stone? Luke felt that there was a high probability that he would not give up.
And Taylor's ability to see clearly and give up was enough to make Luke feel relieved.
Luke hugged the sad Taylor into his arms. This was not the first time that he felt Taylor's vulnerability. The incident that caused Taylor to lose his temper with him because of his concealment had already made Luke feel Taylor's grief and anger.
Now, Taylor's emotions are obviously on the verge of collapse.
Why did she give up the opportunity to see her parents again?
Luke knew, he knew.
Tyler buried his head in Luke's arms. Compared to Luke, whose growth was promoted by Snape's potion, Taylor already looked thin and small.
And Taylor also knew that Luke's heart could not be calm. Although I don’t know why Luke’s parents left. But the pathos is always similar.
In a dark cabin. The two children hugged each other, as if they were holding the only ray of light in their world.
………………
At night, Luke arranged his clothes. Taylor next to him looked at his outfit and was quite satisfied: "This outfit is really good."…
Luke looked at himself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction. But just like before, he was actually not interested in such a banquet.
"To be honest, there will be an attack after every banquet. I almost have a shadow in my heart."
Luke laughed and joked about his experiences throughout the summer. Unfortunately, today he is going to the last party of his summer vacation.
Taylor, on the other hand, looked at Luke with a slightly tangled look.
"Are you sure you really want me to accompany you to the banquet? Isn't this a banquet for your nobles?"
When Luke heard this, he smiled and said, "Why, not confident?"
Taylor nodded without hesitation: "I'm not a eldest lady. Our family has a long heritage. But in fact, there is no title of nobility."
Of course, there is a more important point that Taylor did not say.
Because their family does not use their surname as the basis for inheritance. It's as if her last name now is her father's last name. But in fact, her talents come from her mother's bloodline.
This is a talent that is supposed to be inherited only in female offspring.
"It doesn't matter, don't think of this banquet as too high-end." Luke said calmly, "The British nobles are all in ruins. They can hardly afford to hire wizard servants."
To be honest, Luke, the map cannon, naturally scolded him himself. But what he said was correct. Compared with the American aristocrats, and even the French aristocrats who let a group of wizards serve as their servants, the British aristocrats were a bit lower in status.
There was no way around it. Those two shocks had a huge impact on the entire British wizarding world. It's not unusual to see a situation like this. But facts are facts.
"What's more, although only people from the Twenty-eight families can participate in this banquet, in fact, people from the Twenty-eight families will bring some families or individuals who are close to them to participate."
Luke waved the black gold-plated invitation in his hand and said calmly: "It also says you can bring people to participate."
"Could someone trade this quota with those nobles who are not very rich? After all, some people still want to join such a small circle."
Taylor's head turned quickly, and she almost immediately discovered the channels through which some of the twenty-eight families could make profits.
Luke snapped his fingers, and then said to Taylor: "That's right. To be honest, I was just a high-end banquet at the beginning, where nobles discussed the future of the entire wizarding world. But in fact, it was just a simple banquet. Meeting."
"Twenty-eight families are never monolithic. Even if someone can twist them into a rope, they still have to endure the intrigues and mischief between them."
Luke flexed his arms. Taylor, on the other hand, stepped forward helplessly. Then he took Luke's arm.
"The skirt you chose is really inconvenient." Taylor said helplessly, "It restricted my movements."
"I sincerely hope that neither of us will do anything big tonight."
Luke sighed sincerely: "If something unexpected happens at today's banquet, then I think it's best for me not to attend any banquets in the future."…
Once or twice is the other party's problem. This is the third time. Counting the family dinner with Newt and the others, it can even be said to be the fourth time. If there are still problems, then Luke will have to reflect on whether there is something wrong with him.
Taylor looked at Luke with a complicated expression and showed a cheerful smile.
Luke could only shake his head helplessly.
The two people walked out of the hut, and there was a large Thestral carriage parked at the door of the hut.
This is a relatively common means of transportation.
Both of them could see the skinny, but with a different kind of beauty. Of course, getting up is not the point. The point is the carriage pulled by the Thestrals.
"This is my family's carriage." Luke said with emotion. "It's most convenient to do it at home. Everything is ready-made. When I get to the United States, I even have to worry about transportation tools."
After hearing this, Taylor carefully looked at the simple and beautifully decorated carriage in front of him, shook his head and said, "I think a broomstick is pretty good as a means of transportation."
Luke nodded: "I don't deny it, but I still believe that it is necessary to match and match the right things for the right occasion. When going to a banquet, especially a banquet like this where a lot of old antiques will be present, I think we should not do anything. It’s better to be trendy.”
"At least don't do it yet."
Of course you can be trendy, but it’s best to do it when what you do is trendy.
While talking, the two people got into the carriage.
The reins of the carriage moved on their own, urging the two Thestrals to take off.
………………
An estate somewhere in the west of England.
Draco Malfoy stood at the door wearing an exquisite formal suit to greet him. The etiquette and propriety in dealing with others are impeccable. The expression on his face is humble but not humble, proud but not arrogant. Speak to everyone in a gentle tone of voice.
"Oh, little Malfoy, you did really well today."
Old Nott looked at the little guy in front of him and praised him with admiration. After all, it would be nice to be able to avoid stage fright in such a big scene, and Draco was able to complete such a task without even needing his father by his side, which really opened Old Nott's eyes.
It seems that there are still good children among this next generation.
Oliver Nott, who was beside him, couldn't help but frowned when he saw the smile on Malfoy's face. He always felt that Malfoy's behavior today gave him a rather unpleasant feeling.
But this discomfort was not directed at Malfoy. This made him feel a little weird.
"Can you please stop being like Luke, Draco!"
The younger brother beside him, Theodore Nott, the second son of the Nott family, looked at Draco's performance, frowned and said, "You look pretty good yourself, there's no need to imitate Luke!"
Then the expressions of old Knott and Oliver Knott changed.
Oliver turned his head and wanted to spit. But considering today's occasion, I still held back.
Pooh! unlucky!
In fact, Draco was also a little embarrassed, and the smile on his face was almost broken.
"I didn't study deliberately, Theodore." Draco said sincerely, "I just felt that Luke's usual behavior is consistent with today's occasion. So I chose this behavior."….
Theodore reflected
down, and then gave Draco a contemptuous look.
Aren’t you copying your homework?
Draco obviously saw what Theodore meant, so the smile on his face became more and more embarrassed.
Old Nott looked at the scene in front of him and shook his head helplessly, then smiled at Draco and said, "Behave well, everyone is looking forward to you as the host."
Draco nodded and said, "I will not lose the Malfoy family."
Old Nott nodded and walked into the manor in front of him with his two sons. Of course, following them was a man in gorgeous robes with an overly serious face, so serious that people could easily see his nervousness. Malfoy didn't ask the visitor's name, just checked the guest list and let him pass.
Their carriage had been taken away and parked by the elves.
Watching the three people leave, Draco saw that no one would be coming for a while, and the tight smile on his face fell.
"Merlin's beard. I just thought something like this would be fun. I never thought it would be so tiring."
Draco shook his head tiredly. He had already come out to greet the guests as soon as possible. But even so, he still stood here for about three hours.
Mr. Malfoy has never suffered like this! Logically speaking, he should be the most handsome cub at today's banquet. He just needs to wait quietly for everyone around him to arrive. With his own group of friends, he showed his son's leadership charm to his father.
Luke had already agreed with him to give him the stage today. Luke would never steal his own limelight!
Just as he was thinking about Luke, he saw a carriage falling towards this side in the sky, and there was a snake symbol on the side of the carriage. That is the carriage of the Gaunt family.
Malfoy is a kid who knows things. He could tell at a glance that this carriage seemed to be better than his own carriage...
Luke is indeed rich. Malfoy was not surprised by this, after all, Luke's usual behavior was even more generous than his father's. He seriously thought about it, maybe his family really wasn't as rich as Luke's family.
Moreover, Luke’s money is freely used by him, and no one cares about it at all, which is really enviable!
Seeing the carriage land, Malfoy headed over to meet it. He and Luke are good friends, and Luke has taught him so many things. It is normal for him to be grateful to Luke! Go up and greet me. Although it's a bit against the rules, no fool would follow the rules!
The first lesson of the Malfoy family's life education: follow and maintain the rules that are beneficial to you and make you feel comfortable. If the rules are not good for you or make you feel uncomfortable, then adjust them.
"Luke!"
Looking at Luke getting off the carriage, Malfoy greeted him warmly. Luke, who was not far away, nodded to himself, and he was suddenly stunned.
We haven't seen each other for about a month. What happened to your kid? Why does it look so high now!
But what surprised him even more was what was happening behind him. Luke made a gesture to pick someone up at the side of the carriage. A slender-looking arm stretched out from the carriage and put it on Luke's hand. ….
This made Malfoy feel his body tremble with excitement.
Luke's actions during the summer vacation were no secret among the aristocratic circles. After all, things are so big. The burning of Paris almost happened again in Paris, and more than a dozen nobles lost their lives in the United States.
It's strange that such a big thing can be hidden.
Therefore, as these attacks spread back to China, there were also various tidbits of news. Lucius Malfoy felt perverted when he heard the news at first.
No, spreading rumors about a 12-year-old child, what the hell are you thinking!
But more and more details are coming out. What French little beauty bravely rescued Luke. The beautiful American housekeeper fell in love with Luke at first sight. It was said that it was a person with a nose and eyes.
Lucius Malfoy and one more
The nobles were a little suspicious.
There are also some nobles who are impatient. No, the little girls in our own country haven’t even started yet! Can you girls from other countries be more reserved?
Even Draco knew that many girls of the same age or slightly older who had just approached the manor were not simply here to enjoy the dinner tonight.
They are all hunters who put on their best hunting clothes and picked up their best wands.
Luke is the fattest boar in the woods.
But looking at it now, many people are probably disappointed.
But Draco wasn't happy about their miscalculation. Although those are very beautiful girls, as brothers, they must let Luke look for them first!
It's better than really letting Luke get together with Miss Granger, the girl from the Lion House who played well with him.
Draco had a lot of things on his mind at that moment. Of course, most people are still wondering who this could be.
The eldest lady of the Strange family? Still the legendary Lady Skye.
Wow! If it was really Ms. Skye, that would be so exciting!
After all, she is a mature big sister!
But when the blonde girl in a royal blue dress got out of the car and took Luke's hand, he discovered that it was not any of them.
But this girl is no worse than the two Luke's rumored partners seen in the photo.
What's even more surprising is that compared to the two girls in their prime, the girl in front of her looks only about the same age as herself. Apparently it hasn't grown yet.
But that dazzling blond hair and those eyes that looked like the blue sea under a clear sky were so attractive.
She held Luke's arm like a blue bird.
Draco even felt a little ashamed of himself when the two people walked towards him under the setting sun.
But for some reason, when he looked at that beautiful girl, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Long time no see, Draco!"
Luke first greeted Malfoy, who was still a little dazed.
Malfoy came back to his senses, smiled and said: "Long time no see, actually it hasn't been that long. But your stories really come one after another!"
Luke said helplessly: "Believe me, if I had a choice, I would rather have a relaxing summer vacation than these stories."
Draco had a hard time understanding Luke's thoughts.
Then, he turned his attention to the girl and asked in a curious but not rude tone: "This is..."
The girl glanced at Draco, who was polite and gentle, and suddenly smiled.
Draco frowned, obviously confused.
But looking at Luke with a smile on his face, he didn't have an attack.
The girl noticed Draco's displeasure and restrained herself, but she still smiled happily.
"I haven't seen you for more than a month. You don't know me anymore, Draco!"
This voice also made Draco feel quite familiar.
He was going crazy in his own mind. He thought that if he had ever seen such a beautiful girl, he would never forget it.
Finally, when he looked at the long golden hair, he took a sharp breath.
"Tyler! Is it you?!".
I don't update
