It took two days for Ning'an to realize that he was in the French port city of Calais, which is located in the north of France, not far from the big city of Lille, and even closer to the British port of Dover across the sea.

"Where do you think we should go? Sephant? ”

Ning An sat in a chair, gently wiping his wand with a white cloth, and he was in a large and tidy room, with a bed, a table, and a 21-inch color TV, which was now on, playing a French TV series.

"Paris—aren't you going there looking for clues to the elixir?" The pit viper, perched on the high table next to him, hissed and spat out the letter.

It is not easy to resurrect the dead, but if it is to resurrect a life in the form of Sephant or Anagram, then there are still some ways.

For example, the bone and blood spell used by Voldemort to resurrect him, and Sephant's ability to survive because of the existence of Horcruxes, it stands to reason that this spell should also have an effect on him.

But his existence is too long, not to mention enemies and servants, his father and mother have long since turned into dust and dissipated, where can he find his father's bones?

So after more than a year of study and Gentak's guidance from time to time, Ning An created the "resurrection magic" he came up with, which was also prepared for his own resurrection of Calidora.

If he could resurrect Sephant and Anagram with this magic, perhaps he would be able to resurrect Carly by adding Carly's soul and something more special and effective.

This magic was not so much a spell as a mixture of potions and spells, as his knowledge of potions helped him a lot in the process of creation.

At first, Ning An thought that this magic needed an existence that could provide majestic vitality, similar to the medicine in traditional Chinese medicine, which would be the "first material and element" of magic.

He rummaged through the classics, searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, and finally thought of the alchemist "Nick?" who was the most qualified to be a medicine inductor. The elixir made by Lemay, given that the Philosopher's Stone has been destroyed, then Ning An can only look for the elixir.

But Nick? Lemay and his wife are hiding in the dark no one can say, although it is rumored that they live in seclusion in Devon, but Ning An does not think that he can easily find this residence, perhaps they have long used the Loyalty Charm to hide this place, given that Dumbledore is a good friend of the two, it is also very likely that the secret is Dumbledore.

Ning An didn't want to run up to Dumbledore and ask him about Nick? Where is Lemay's family, it is simply a self-imposed net, and Ning An will not do such a thing.

The only thing left is the possibility to find with Nick? The only place left for the clues to Lemay is the underground cemetery in Paris, France.

Nick? Lemay was French, he grew up here, and as a native French wizard, he did leave a lot of deeds in France, among which some of the most famous symbols in the fourth chamber of the catacombs were the most famous, and many Muggles wanted to study the mysteries.

But that was just a waste of effort, of course, the French Ministry of Magic would not sit idly by, Ning An guessed that they might have used a large-scale Muggle expulsion charm to isolate the secret room where Nicolame had left the symbols, and then make a fake one for the Muggles to study.

He believed that in the catacombs he could find clues about Nicolame, the elixir of life, and his Philosopher's Stone, and had already discussed it with Sephenter, so he did not hesitate to propose to go to Paris.

Köningham was eager to go back to England, he wanted to know what was going on there, how Daphne and Samantha were doing.

However, just when Ning An was entangled, a mark on his right arm that he had not touched for a long time began to heat slightly.

It was a large black snake coiled in a ball, hissing and spitting letters, and at this moment, the eyes on the snake's head flashed with a faint green light, as if it had been reawakened by something.

"It's ......!"

Ning An was a little surprised that the mark of the snake letter would react, which meant that there were people around here who were also engraved with the mark of the snake letter.

"How is this possible?" Ning An was very surprised, and couldn't figure out how there could be a member of the snake letter in France.

"What's wrong?"

Sephant also sensed that the expression on Ning An's face was wrong, he raised his snake head and looked at Ning An's exposed right arm, only to see that the black snake mark was flashing and deepening.

"Nothing."

Ning An waved his hand lightly, coming back to his senses from surprise, no matter who the other party was, as long as he called over to take a look, he would understand, not to mention that this person was likely to provide him with the information he urgently needed.

As for this being a trap or something, Ning An didn't care, he hadn't been idle for more than a year in Hades, and he even felt that this year was several times higher than the previous level of studying magic at Hogwarts.

Especially the guidance of Sondake, a mysterious wizard, made Ning An feel like he was suddenly surprised in both spells and duels, and if he duel with Snape again now, Ning An had the confidence to compete with him.

Without hesitation, he raised his wand, tapped the black snake mark on his right arm, and a cloud of smoke exploded with a "bang", and the piercing "crackling" sound seemed to light a firecracker, and in the blink of an eye, a guy wearing a tattered robe and looking like a beggar appeared in the middle of the room.

His hair was long and messy, dirty covering his cheeks, he couldn't see his face clearly, he was slender and tall, holding a gray and white ** staff in his hand, followed by a phantom manifestation of a begging money bowl, which fell to the ground with a "ding, ding, ding", and the coins in it jumped for a while but did not slip out of the bowl.

Ning An's hand held the wand steadily, pointing at the beggar wizard who accepted his summon and came from the phantom shape, and said coldly:

"Put down your wand, look up, and let me see you-"

The beggar knelt on one knee, his shoulders trembled lightly a few times, he seemed to be a little excited, but soon calmed down again, he followed Ning An's instructions, slowly put the gray ** staff on the ground, turned the palm of his hand and the back of his hand, and signaled that his hands were empty.

Then the man slowly brushed back the handful of hair that covered his cheeks, revealing a young face that was too dirty to see.

His eyes were so vibrant, just like a year ago, as if they were full of inscrutable thoughts all the time, far from the eccentric, but they were about to leave, and he was looking at Ning An excitedly at this time.

"Pani...... Starr ......"

Ning An's voice also trembled slightly, Pani? Starr is indeed a reasonable but unexpected person.

There are not many members of the snake letter who can apparition, and Pani is the best master, but after escaping from the secret room that day, Ning An's energy is all focused on the resurrection stone and the other side of the veil, and he doesn't know if Pani was caught later.

"You're finally back—"

Pani eagerly pressed his right hand on his left chest, bowed again, and said:

"I've been looking for you, I've traveled all over the continent and I haven't seen any trace of you, but just two days ago, the imprint suddenly started to heat up - I learned that you had reappeared, and that you were nearby."

He spoke a little confused, perhaps because of his emotional excitement, slightly different from the polite Pani before, and the gold-rimmed glasses he wore before were gone, needless to say, Pani must have experienced a lot of things in the past year.

"My lord, Walter and Samantha are in Azkaban—"

After Ning An helped Pani up, Pani tidied up his face a little, and then said with a serious face:

"The Ministry of Magic has issued a wanted warrant for both of us, and both the Aurors and Muggle police are looking for us, and I left the UK because the search was too strict to stay."

Ning An pondered for a moment, when they escaped from the secret room, Samantha and Walter were already behind, Ning An expected that they would be captured, but he didn't expect Dumbledore to really send his students to Azkaban.

Perhaps the hardliners in Wizengamory played a big role? Ning An thought again, now Bati? Crouch and these people are still in Wizengamory, and they will never tolerate adultery, and the reason why Samantha and them are sent to prison is probably because the previous use of the Unforgivable Charm was found out.

The Ministry of Magic has a truth potion, these things are very normal to be known, and he estimates that what he has done has almost been investigated, and even if the two of them are caught by the Aurors, they will have to spend the rest of their lives in Azkaban.

But there is nothing to be afraid of, he has never been afraid of the Ministry of Magic, Samantha and Walter he always has to rescue, even if he breaks Azkaban, but not now, he and Pani can't do it, this thing has to be done slowly.

Seeing that he was muttering, Pani continued, "Daphne was exempted from imprisonment because of her family's protection, but seems to have been ordered to drop out of school—"

After a pause, Pani looked a little regretful, and he sighed

"I've heard that Daphne was eventually expelled from school because she refused to admit that she was under your Imperius Curse, and that she insisted that everything she did was voluntary, which was said to be a big headache for her father—"

Ning An nodded, Daphne was not imprisoned in Azkaban was the best news for her, if this closest friend of his was imprisoned in Azkaban, then Ning An would probably have to go to rescue her immediately.

Turning around and sitting back on the chair, Ning An picked up the white cloth on the table next to him and continued to wipe his wand, while Pani only noticed "Sephant" lying on the table at this time.

He seemed to be interested in the serpent, and when he saw that the pit viper looked listless, as if he were about to die, he went up and teased it twice with his wand, and saw his former leader again, and Pani felt in a good mood.

"If you point that broken log at me again, I'll show you what a snake's fangs are—"

The pit viper suddenly puffed up its belly and hissed in a hoarse voice in warning.

This startled Pani, he didn't expect the snake to speak, whether it was an owl or a toad, a mouse or a snake, and Pani had never seen a pet that could talk, unless he was a ......

"Animagus?"

Parney turned his head to look at Ning An with a puzzled expression, he was not like Samantha and Walter treated Ning An like servants, he was usually very relaxed and like a friend.

"That's Mr. Sephant—" Ning An waved his hand and said, "Don't bother him, I'll tell you the details later." ”

After speaking, he lowered his voice, his voice became low and heavy, raised his eyelids, glanced at Pani, and asked slowly word by word:

"So—is that Miss Laurel doing well now?"

Laurel, this traitor, Ning An still remembers how she turned against McGonagall after seeing her in the secret room, the two swaying wall grasses, Ning An didn't plan to let her go.

Pani chuckled, with a clear look in his eyes, he had already guessed that if Ning An appeared again, the first one who would not let go would be this traitor, so he also collected as much news as possible about this girl.

He cleared his throat and slowly explained to Ning An:

"Laurel later claimed that he was controlled by your Imperius Curse, but in the end she rebelled against the Imperius Curse of her own volition, so she 'rejoined the side of justice' and with McGonagall and Snape testifying on her behalf, the Wizengamot acquitted her on the spot."

"I remember her father was the deputy head of the Magical Accident Disaster Division, right?" Ning An sneered disdainfully: "I heard that I have a good relationship with Fudge? ”

Pani nodded, subconsciously raised his hand to push his glasses, but suddenly found that his eyes had long been lost, and unnaturally put down his hand and said:

"Yes, there aren't many people in the Ministry of Magic who can be impartial, and it's rotten for a long time—" He snorted indifferently, precisely because of his father, Charles, who worked in the Department of Magical Law Enforcement? Starr saw through the corrupt Ministry of Magic, so Parney did not choose to follow his father's arrangement, finish Hogwarts, and enter the Ministry of Magic.

Instead, he embarked on a path that his father would never have wanted.

Ning An finally wiped his wand, the ebony wand was now smooth and shiny, and the dark lines on the wand could be seen with the naked eye, he inserted the wand back into his waist, stood up and said to Pani:

"We have other things to do now, is there any way you can get to Paris sooner?"

Ning An finally decided to look for Nick first? Lemay and his elixir, with Pani there, what happened in England was enough for him to understand.

And he's never been to Paris, so there's no way to directly apparage, and Floo fans can't talk about it, and he now has very few magic props, and he doesn't even have a penny, whether it's a wizard's or a Muggle's, and even the residence is living in an ordinary person's house with a confusion charm, and he has to give them a powerful forgetting charm when he leaves.
