That day, they accompany Nicole and his wife to chat into the night. It is hard to imagine that the two old people have said so much. Fortunately, they are not boring. They also let Albert and Isobel understand the story of centuries ago. If they were historians about what the wizarding world looked like, they would definitely be interested in the memories of the Lemays.
Unfortunately, none of them are.
Albert has no interest in history.
He was only interested in the birth of the Philosopher's Stone.
This is more because he is an alchemist.
There is no alchemist who is not interested in the Philosopher's Stone.
This is the lifelong pursuit of many people.
Of course, it may also be because the Philosopher's Stone can produce gold and immortality.
Nico agreed.
Through the Pensieve, he took everyone back to April 25, 1382, the day the Philosopher's Stone was born.
"It took me 21 years to finally fully translate and master the contents of the Jewish Book of Abraham." Nico raised his finger to the parchment on the table, "The last Hebrew scholar gave me a lot of help , I remember that day, I felt like I was stunned, and I kept trying to make the legendary magic stone."
"That is the ultimate pursuit of all alchemists. When you know how to make the Philosopher's Stone, you can't help but try it."
"Indeed." Albert nodded.
"In the end, I succeeded. In fact, I don't know how I succeeded. In short, some mercury turned into gold under the influence of the Philosopher's Stone."
In the laboratory, Nico is trying to use the magic stone to contact the mercury. The magic stone is put into the mercury, and it does gradually turn them into gold.
When everyone saw Niko, who was in his fifties, he was so happy as a child, jumping around with the Philosopher's Stone.
"I remember that day, Niko shared the Philosopher's Stone with me like a child." Perenal's eyes were full of nostalgia.
"If it was me, it would probably be the same." Albert said softly.
"The Philosopher's Stone really turns mercury into gold, and gold is better than ordinary gold, softer and more malleable." Nicole looked at the gold that was turned into by the Philosopher's Stone and said softly, "Later, I discovered that those were not Real gold is more valuable than gold."
"Later, we tried to make other magic stones, because we found that when using magic stones to convert mercury into gold, a small part of the magic stones will be consumed, so the magic stones you see now are much bigger than we were at that time. Some."
"The engraving of the Philosopher's Stone failed?" Albert guessed the result.
"Yes, it failed." Nico nodded and said, "The magic stone we recreated cannot turn mercury into gold."
When Nico was talking, the picture in front of them became hazy, and then they found themselves in the laboratory. Nico was still in the laboratory, but he looked a little older, and the surrounding environment had also changed. There are many redstones similar to the Philosopher's Stone.
"Later, when we were old, we finally chose to publish the formula for making the Philosopher's Stone to see if anyone could successfully create the Philosopher's Stone."
"The results were disappointing."
"Everyone has failed."
This is probably the reason why there are many magic stone formulas circulating in the magic world. Many people think that Nicole Lemay fooled them with fake formulas, so they tried to make magic stones by modifying the formula.
But they all failed.
When people tried to get the real formula from Nicole Lemay, the two elderly people had chosen to live in seclusion and disappeared from people's presence.
The authenticity of the formula cannot be verified.
People's greed for the Philosopher's Stone also fell silent with the disappearance of the Lemay couple. Many people only regarded the Philosopher's Stone as a treasure in legends.
That night, Albert carefully studied the Philosopher's Stone's notebook, and by the way recalled what he saw in the Pensieve. This notebook did record the manufacture of the Philosopher's Stone in detail, or in other words, the case of the failure of the Philosopher's Stone to be manufactured in detail.
Yes, manufacturing failed!
The notes should be written after the fact, mostly through the memories of the Pensieve, to write down the successful case of Nico's original creation of the Philosopher's Stone, but the subsequent manufacture of the Philosopher's Stone all failed. Redstone with no effect.
After failing again and again, Nico gave up research on the manufacture of Philosopher's Stone completely, and regarded the only Philosopher's Stone as an incredible miracle.
After repeatedly reading the Sorcerer's Stone's manufacturing notes, Albert did not find the Sorcerer's Stone's skill on the panel.
However, he didn't expect to be able to master the manufacturing method of the Philosopher's Stone after reading the notes.
After all, Niko couldn't copy the Philosopher's Stone himself. Eighty percent of the way in his notes was missing some important factor. Otherwise, the created Philosopher's Stone couldn't be just a similar-looking redstone without any effect.
If the manufacturing method of the Philosopher's Stone really appeared on the skill panel, Albert might be able to know the principle of the Philosopher's Stone, but now he has no plans to master the Philosopher's Stone in other ways.
Even if he wants to successfully create a magic stone, it will inevitably consume a lot of experience and skill points. Before Voldemort's death, Albert would not consider wasting experience and skill points on the magic stone. , to the still very young Albert, it is not in the scope of consideration at all, and it is simply not worth his waste of a lot of resources now.
"Have you researched anything?"
A gentle voice sounded from behind, followed by a scent, Isobel, who was wearing a thin nightdress, stretched out his arms to embrace Albert, "I originally thought you were not interested in the Philosopher's Stone."
"As long as you are an alchemist, you will be interested in the Philosopher's Stone." Albert closed the note, threw it directly on the table, and patted Isobel's hand, "Nico is probably worried that I might try it in the future. Made the Philosopher's Stone, that's why you gave me this notebook."
"Do you want to be like them too?"
"do not know."
"No, you actually think." Isobel put her body on it. "That kind of life is actually not bad. However, I think Mrs. Perenal is right, we should grasp the moment."
"You're right dear, we can say that we are in the happiest time in our lives now." Albert smiled and carried Isobel on his back, beckoned to open the suitcase, and walked in with his feet raised.
The next day, after having breakfast, Albert took Isobel to find Bud, the elderly man who was currently on vacation in France.
Well, to be more precise, it should be that the United Kingdom is not safe. He ran to France to take refuge, and by the way, he helped with Albert's wedding.
It's just that Bud's way of asylum is a bit special. He hides himself in Muggles and enjoys sunbathing on the beach in the south of France.
In a cold drink shop by the beach in the south of France, the two saw Bud dressed in a fashionable and cool fashion and wearing sunglasses.
The other party looks like a cool old man coming on vacation.
Bud is also very popular among Muggles.
When Albert passed by, he was chatting with some travelers who also came here for vacation.
"The person I'm waiting for is here, let's go first." Bud smiled and said goodbye to the friend he just met, and walked towards Albert and Isobel.
"This is indeed a good place for vacation." Albert greeted Bud with a smile.
"It's good to be among Muggles, and no one will pay special attention to it." Bud led Albert and Isobel to a nearby place where no one was around.
"Is it ready over there?" Albert asked. "The time will probably be on the 13th."
"Earlier than I expected."
"Mr. Nico's medicine is almost exhausted," Albert explained.
"There are ten days left, no problem."
Bud stretched out his hand and pressed it on Albert's shoulder, apparating directly with the two of them.
The three of them appeared in a bush somewhere, surrounded by a large stone, which seemed to be the coordinates to stay here on purpose.
Bud led the way and motioned for the two to follow.
"It's a bit old there, but I've asked the house-elves to help clean it up. Although it might be a bit of a problem to live in, it's definitely not a problem to have a wedding."
While speaking, Bud had already appeared near the manor with Albert.
In fact, there is no manor here, only a yellow bush.
"Welcome to Knowles Manor, no one has been here for a long time." Bud happily introduced the two of them after confirming that there was no one else around. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
As soon as the voice fell, the bushes in front of everyone suddenly pushed away, and a stone path overgrown with weeds appeared in front of it. At the end of the path was an old French manor.
There is no doubt that this manor has been protected by the Fierce Loyalty Charm.
When the two walked into the manor, Bud happily introduced them to them: "This was originally a small vineyard, but unfortunately it was abandoned when no one lived there."
"Are there many places like this?" Albert asked curiously.
"I don't know, this is a legacy left by someone." Bud shrugged, "It was inherited by us, but you also know that we don't need it, so this place is vacant."
"Do we have any other safe houses in France?" Albert suddenly turned his head and asked.
"Tiberius has a safe house in France." Bud said with a smile, "That's what he told me a while ago, and probably guessed that you might need a safe house."
"My family will return to Europe in a while, and I need to prepare a safe house for them in France," explained Albert.
"You can use the safe house provided by Tiberius. I've been there. It's an old villa." Bud thought for a while and said, "However, I suggest letting them live in your suitcase. It's a big job to do a thorough cleaning."
"You can make a prediction first to see if it is safe for them to stay in a Muggle hotel." Isobel suggested.
"Forget it, just a few days, it's best not to let down your guard, and they will also go to Knowles Manor to help with the final preparations." Albert finally rejected Isobel's proposal. He really didn't want to take risks, there was nothing significance.
