From the Maj-san, oh, it's a little wizard born in a Muggle family. You know I'm an American, and we call Muggles Majks over there. From them, I learned that there is a magical creation in the world of No-Maj, called a video game console. Kids love to play virtual world games on video game consoles.

Since then I've been like, why don't we have that kind of virtual world game in the wizarding world? We wizards have the most mysterious magic in the world. How is it possible that even the virtual world game that can be created by No-Maji cannot be researched?

With that in mind, I worked tirelessly for a year to conceive a prototype of the Pandora console. But it was just a sketch on parchment, and with the help of a friend who was very talented in alchemy, I was able to make my first Pandora console and my first virtual world game, The Wizard is Coming. ”

Faced with Nicol Lemay's admiration, Rick was not carried away by pride, and he trayed the fact that the Pandora console was made with the help of Cord.

Nicol Lemay was a little surprised by what Rick said, he didn't expect the production of Pandora's game console to have such a tortuous experience, and he was a little stunned for a while.

"Ahem, Albus, you're really looking for someone?" Perhaps not having figured out how to respond to Rick, Nicol Lemay coughed a few times, and Albus Dumbledore said next to him.

"Haha, Nicol. Rick was able to come to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, and it was indeed me who was favored by the lucky girl. Dumbledore was about to pick up the teacup on the table, and when he heard Lemay's question, he smiled in response.

"Headmaster Dumbledore is polite, if it weren't for you helping me, how could my Lightspot Game Studio open a flagship store for Pandora Games in the UK?" Rick on the side said modestly.

"Haha, Mr. Graves, don't exalt him anymore. I'll tell you a secret, when Dumbledore wanted to learn alchemy from me, because his talent was so bad, I turned him down three times, but he kept pestering me without a face, I couldn't help it. I had to take him as an apprentice, but it turned out to be the same as I expected, and his achievements in alchemy were mediocre. ”

"It turns out that Headmaster Dumbledore also learned alchemy from Master Lemay." Rick didn't expect Dumbledore to have learned alchemy from Nicol Lemay before.

"yes, it's been more than sixty years in the blink of an eye." Dumbledore stroked his beard and sighed.

"Mr. Graves, although you and I confessed that you didn't make the Pandora console alone. But I think your talent in alchemy is very high, don't rush to refuse. In my eyes, alchemy is not only about being able to create sophisticated magical products to be called alchemy.

Having the mind to create new types of magical artifacts is also a manifestation of alchemical talent. Although you can't make it yourself, your ideas are incomparable to many alchemists.

That's why I said that your alchemy talent is very high, and it's not for nothing. Here are some of the experiences and experiences I have summarized in my life about alchemy, you can collect them and learn slowly. If you don't understand anything, you can write to me and contact me. ”

With that, Nicol Lemay summoned a thick book from his bookshelf and floated it in front of Rick.

"Thank you, Master Lemay. I'm going to study the knowledge in this book carefully. Even if I can't learn it, I'll help you find a friend who is very talented in alchemy and let him inherit your mantle. ”

Rick held the dragon skin in both hands and thanked Nicol Lemay with excitement on his face. Trying to resist the urge to flip through it right away, Rick put it in a dragon skin pouch on his waist.

"Haha, it's better this way!"

Nicol Lemayt's pale face was a rare rosy color when he heard Rick say that he was looking for someone to inherit his mantle, and he smiled happily.

"Ahem, as long as you can read the book I sent you, your future success will definitely be higher than Albus!" Nicol Lemay glanced at Dumbledore, then said to Rick.

"Nicol, I'm still sitting here." Hearing Nicol Lemay tease him, Dumbledore couldn't sit still, since he became a teacher at Hogwarts, he no longer had time or energy to focus on alchemy, let alone now be the headmaster of Hogwarts.

"Isn't it?"

“……”

Watching the two old men tear down each other's towers, Rick gently picked up the teacup on the table and became a qualified melon eater.

"Master Lemay, when I was a student, I always had a question after reading about your legendary deeds, why didn't you refine the first philosopher's stone at that time?"

Rick's sudden question interrupted the conversation, and Nicol Lemay looked at Rick for a long time, then turned to look at Dumbledore, who nodded to him in the face of Nicol Lemay's eyes. After exchanging glances with Dumbledore, Nicol Lemay said to Rick.

"It's a long story. I've told Albus before, so let Albus talk to you. ”

"Graves, all the wizards in this world think that the Philosopher's Stone was refined by Nicol, but it is not. The Philosopher's Stone does not belong to this world at all, it was obtained by Nicol during his expedition to Egypt, when a meteor fell near Master Nicol's camp, Nicol was awakened by a loud collision sound, in order to find out what caused the collision sound just now, Master Nicol looked for the direction of the sound to check. ”

As a result, Nicol found a huge crater two kilometers from his camp, which was so large that there were two Quidditch venues. In the center of the crater, Nicol found a meteorite that had not burned out, and it was only half the size of a palm.

Nicol was still a young alchemist at the time, and in the face of rare and rare meteorites, he just regarded him as a precious material and did not pay too much attention to it, but it was only in a study a few years later that Master Nicol discovered the extraordinary abilities contained in this meteorite. ”

"After dozens of attempts, Nicol first used it to complete the mercury-silver conversion, and then the mercury-gold conversion. When Muggles found out about this, it became a sensational alchemy in the Muggle world that year. Eventually, Nicol continued to study the meteorite and succeeded in creating the elixir of life.

It is also because of the elixir of immortality that Nicol has been able to live until now. As you know, last year there was a mystery man who invaded Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to steal the Philosopher's Stone. After that, Nicol asked me to destroy the Philosopher's Stone. ”
