Chapter 80: The Biggest Problem

With the "full cooperation" of the two Gustafssons, Professor Malfoy finally came to his senses.

The surrounding image continued to shatter, the only constant was the blood-colored moon overhead.

The eerie tomb turned into a wide plain, surrounded by countless red eyes, greedily gazing at the delicious food in their eyes.

The little wizards seemed to have forgotten everything they had just done, and were once again caught in a difficult choice.

"So, Miss Gustafsson didn't steal Mr. Gustafsson's things, did she?"

"Alright, I got it."

Professor Malfoy stood up, and just as the two students were finally relieved, they heard their professor of dark arts say:

"It's all here, gentlemen, you should be a little test from the professor, right?"

A sense of foreboding flashed through their hearts.

This hunch soon came true.

"The meditation basin can still be used like this?"

In the common room of the North Tower, the professors were silent.

Professor Harlenius was speechless, he glanced at Professor Vancent, who was currently the only one among the professors who was interested in alchemy, only to see Professor Vancente nodding and motioning to several professors to look at the item that shimmered with silver light.

"In the ancient history of alchemy, the meditation basin was generally used as a tool for alchemists to simulate the alchemy process in order to reduce material consumption."

"At the beginning of the thirteenth century, a Nordic alchemist named Aino Millaire began to transform the meditation basin, which was only used as an aid at the time, in order to preserve his precious memories."

"Of course, the original meditation basin only had the function of storing memories, and as generations of alchemists continued to refine it, it eventually became what we see now.

"At the beginning of the eighteenth century, the goblin war destroyed countless ancient precious materials and magical documents, and alchemy also appeared at that time, and this also made the meditation basin an irreproducible, precious alchemy product."

"It is well known that the ancient inscriptions inlaid around the meditation basin are inlaid with mythril, gold, or black stone, and the more inscriptions are inlaid, the more complete the power of the meditation basin becomes, and the more powerful the magic power that can be preserved or released. Therefore, there is also an unwritten rule in alchemy, the more ancient magic scripts a qualified alchemy product can carry, or the more magical power, then the higher its level. ”

"The currently known meditation basin, which can be inlaid with up to seventy-two magic inscriptions, was made by the British alchemist Umut Solo over a dozen years four hundred and twenty years ago. Now on display in the International Confederation of Wizards' Dangerous Goods Department, this meditation basin is a priceless treasure in the wizarding world, especially in alchemy. ”

Professor Van Sente recounted what he knew.

"The threshold for alchemy is very high, every alchemist is a person who has left a strong color in the wizarding world, and wizards who can make meditation pots are now very rare."

"About twenty years ago, at a wizarding auction in Northern Europe, the goblins of Gringotts got a meditation basin inlaid with thirty-six ancient magic inscriptions at a price of 270,000 gold galleons, and took this opportunity to obtain the policy support of the Icelandic Ministry of Magic and the Bulgarian Ministry of Magic at that time to help them expand the debt exchange of Gringotts in the wizarding world in Northern Europe."

'Two, two hundred and seventy thousand? ’

Professor Harlenius was shocked.

Twenty-seven hundred thousand is not a small number, and the goblins at Gringotts are really fat.

Professor Dan Lin didn't say much about this.

There are also meditation basins in Durmstram, which are inherited from the ancient times that cannot be studied, and are not commonly used.

If you use it too much, it will confuse your mind, and you can't tell whether it's memory or reality, and if you don't have enough ability, it's not impossible to drown in the memories created by the meditation basin.

It's a dangerous piece of alchemy.

"Well, the meditation basin in Professor Malfoy's hand, I can't tell how many ancient magic words are embedded in it for the time being......"

Professor Van Sente took a closer look and found that the images conveyed by the paper figures were distorted to varying degrees when they reflected the meditation basin and Professor Malfoy, and he understood that they should have a protective or hidden spell on them, and it was useless to use the paper figures alone.

"At least it's better than the one you bought at Gringotts......"

Professor Van Sente muttered to himself.

The ability to carry out this level of mental immersion and spread memories throughout the scope of the dark arts classroom is quite rare, perhaps even better than the quality in the school.

Where did Malfoy get it from? In the Malfoy family's treasury?

Indeed, as an ancient pure-blood family, their heritage should not be underestimated, and it is not too much to have such a thing.

As for whether Professor Malfoy did it himself...... No one would think that.

After all, a wizard's energy is limited, and he can learn magic spells, black magic, and ancient magic to this extent, which is already considered a genius.

Most wizards can only specialize in one item in their lifetime in order to achieve brilliant achievements.

Ancient magic is a brain-burner, there are many kinds of black magic, and even more so, Professor Malfoy must have spent a lot of effort on both, even if he was a wizard in the twenties, even if he didn't sleep during the period, even if he was able to divide his energy between the two branches, it was impossible to learn alchemy to the level of being able to make a meditation basin.

What's more, the gold gallons consumed in it are innumerable, and the benefits and efforts may not be proportional.

If...... It means that if Malfoy has also achieved something in alchemy, then they really doubt that Malfoy is an ancestor of the Malfoy family who has been living with horcruxes.

Spells, black magic, ancient magic, plus alchemy, obviously impossible.

What else is this? Merlene is alive?

On Professor Malfoy's side, it was obviously impossible to hear the fragments of the other professors.

He used the meditation basin to pull the two senior students closer to the memory fragment and pasted it with the group of young wizards, and then sat down again.

"It doesn't look like the Gustavsson family is not at peace either."

He is now in contact with several of Norway's oldest pure-blood families, but for now, most of them can rule out cooperation with the Saints, or the Death Eaters.

The old pure-blood families had their own pride, and they wouldn't do anything that might ruin the family's reputation for a little profit.

'Not enough feed is given. ’

Professor Malfoy looked at the young wizards who were immersed in the shock of memory, and changed his position to make himself more comfortable.

'Who, then, are the people who cooperate with the saints, the Death Eaters?' ’

'What was there in Durmstrang that they wanted?' ’

Grindelwald was expelled from Durmstrang, and it's not impossible for those who are not in their right minds to go to school because of this grudge.

Karkaroff was a betrayal Death Eater, and it made sense that the fanatics of the juniors wanted to tear him apart.

But there's definitely something special about it, enough to get attention.

The big question now is, 'What did Grindelwald do to get him expelled?' ’

Professor Malfoy's eyes drooped, and the drooping wand in his hand shook casually.

He used the professor's authority to check the events of the year, but there was no corresponding record, which is very strange.

If it is true, as the original book says, Grindelwald was fired because of a dark magic experiment, then how evil was that Durmstrang, who had always tolerated black magic, had to be expelled and did not record any information?
