Chapter 429: News of Nicol Lemay and the Philosopher's Stone

Why didn't Albert just tell himself what the Philosopher's Stone was?

Before falling asleep, Hermione had been thinking about it.

Is it mysterious?

It's a lot like what Albert likes to do.

Or does this matter have a deeper meaning?

Actually, Hermione didn't think Albert liked to do irrelevant things, and decided to find a time to figure things out, so that she would know why she did it.

However, Hermione soon discovers that the Philosopher's Stone, like Nicol Lemay, simply can't find any useful information, which makes Hermione even more discouraged, and she finds that she still knows a lot of things.

In the end, if she really couldn't find it, Hermione was worth taking advantage of the opportunity to ask Professor Flitwick about the Philosopher's Stone at the end of Charms class.

Professor Flitwick didn't really want to answer the question, telling Hermione only that the Philosopher's Stone was related to ancient alchemy, a magical substance with amazing functions.

From Professor Flitwick's tone, Hermione sniffed something unusual, she was arguably one of Professor Flitwick's favorite students, and Professor Flitwick was happy to help answer every question asked.

Is there anything wrong with the Philosopher's Stone?

"What are you looking for Professor Flitsch to do?"

As Hermione left the Charms Classroom, Harry and Ron were waiting for her in the armor hallway outside the Charms Classroom.

"Alchemy?"

Hermione didn't seem to hear the two friends' questions, and one of them said to herself.

"What's wrong with her?"

Ron and Harry exchanged confused glances.

"I don't know. ”

"I see!" Hermione suddenly rushed back to the common room, making Harry and Ron, who were looking at her back, even more confused, and they could only follow helplessly after they looked at each other.

Once back in the Gryffindor common room, Hermione immediately ran back to the girls' dormitory, picked up a huge old book from her bedside table, and reappeared in front of Harry and Ron.

"I didn't think to look around here!" Hermione was emotional, "I should have thought of it last night." ”

"What are you looking for, Nicol Lemay?" asked Harry, confused.

"Where did you get this book? Ron was more curious about the question, he wasn't much of a book-lover, and the huge book made him feel dizzy.

"I borrowed it from the library a few weeks ago for fun. Hermione flipped through the book quickly.

"Pastime?" Ron said as he looked at Hermione in horror, "I dare say you must be crazy." ”

"Ron, don't bother me. ”

Hermione told the two of them to be quiet and asked her to look up the information. The girl's mouth was full of words, and she began to turn the pages quickly.

"The Philosopher's Stone, found. Harry, I've found Nicol Lemay!" When Hermione found the information on the Philosopher's Stone, she was shocked to see that its maker was actually Nicol Lemay, and at the same time, she also found Albert's original words a little intriguing.

"Nicol Lemay, did you find him?" Harry leaned his head over to see Nicol Lemay's information, only to be pushed away by Hermione.

"Don't get out of your appetite, tell us about Nicol Lemay. Ron urged.

Hermione ignored him as well, lowered her voice and began to read a passage from the book, "Nicol Lemay is known as the sole maker of the Philosopher's Stone. Well, no wonder Albert would say that the contents on that parchment were fake. ”

"What stone?" Harry and Ron were confused.

"Philosopher's Stone, remember the parchment I asked Albert to translate? Hermione explained.

She already understood why Albert had asked her to check the information on the Philosopher's Stone, but Hermione was still a little confused, why did Albert tell them the news?

"Ancient alchemy involves the refining of the Philosopher's Stone, a magical substance with amazing functions. The Philosopher's Stone can turn any metal into pure gold, and it can also make ......"

"Philosopher's stone can be turned into gold!" Ron's voice raised an octave, interrupting Hermione with a scream, and tilted his head to the book in disbelief to see for himself the truth of the matter.

"That's what I said above, and don't interrupt me. Hermione glared at Ron disapprehended, and continued, "It can also create an elixir of life, so that those who drink it will never die." ”

"What do you make...... Never die?" Harry felt he must have misheard.

"Don't interrupt me. Hermione was unhappy that she had been interrupted three times and twice, and continued reading: "There have been many reports about the Philosopher's Stone over the centuries, but the only remaining Philosopher's Stone belongs to the famous alchemist Nicol Lemay......"

"Oh my God, he lived to be six hundred and sixty-five?" Harry felt like he was in a dream, could the Philosopher's Stone really live that long?

"It should be true. Ron said without thinking, there are indeed many magical things in the wizarding world.

"That big dog must be guarding Nicol Lemay's Philosopher's Stone!" said Hermione for sure.

"But why is the Philosopher's Stone with Dumbledore?" Ron asked, confused.

"I probably know why!"

This time, Harry ran back to the boys' dormitory, and when he returned, he had a chocolate frog card in his hand, which was a Dumbledore's chocolate frog card.

"I told you where I saw this name before," Harry said excitedly, waving the chocolate frog card in his hand, "Look at this!"

He handed the card to Ron, who began to read the text at the back of the card: "Dumbledore's well-known contributions include: defeating the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, discovering the twelve uses of dragon blood, and working with partner Nicol Lemay in alchemy!"

"I'm sure Nicol Lemay asked Dumbledore to keep the Philosopher's Stone for him, because they were good friends, and Dumbledore must have known that someone was playing with the Philosopher's Stone. That's why he transferred the Philosopher's Stone from Gringotts. Hermione looked very excited, as if she had won the first place in the exam.

"A stone can make gold, and a treasure that will make you immortal!" Harry said with a deep breath, "No wonder Snape is playing with it!"

"Anyone would want it!"

Ron fantasized about himself as he had a pile of gold, and his saliva almost flowed out.

"Albert must have known about the Philosopher's Stone for a long time, and he may have been playing with the Philosopher's Stone, so he was reluctant to tell us about it. Harry felt that with Albert's abilities, there might be a way to get his hands on the Philosopher's Stone.

"Harry, that's what Albert told us about the Philosopher's Stone. Hermione didn't agree with Harry at all, and if Albert really didn't want to know about the Philosopher's Stone, he wouldn't have given him the recipe for the Philosopher's Stone.

"Didn't he say that recipe was fake?" Ron was so full of Philosopher's Stones and Gold that he didn't even realize what he was talking about.

"However, I agree with Harry, and if I were him, I would have found a way to get my hands on the Philosopher's Stone. Ron looked at Harry and said, "We can work with Albert to get our hands on the Philosopher's Stone, and I'm sure Fred and George know about it." ”

"I don't think Albert would steal Professor Dumbledore's Philosopher's Stone. Hermione disagreed, believing that Albert probably knew a lot of things they didn't know.
