Chapter 190: Alchemist Nicol Lemay (Second Watch)
In the French Enchanted Street, in a villa that looks very historic, Li Chuan met the alchemist Nick Lemay, who was about 600 years old.
Although he gained immortality by taking the elixir of life refined by the Philosopher's Stone, Nick Lemay's body is still decaying over time.
So his whole person looked like a rotten and dry corpse, there was no trace of blood on his body, and he walked carefully, and a fracture would occur if he bumped it slightly.
"Sorry, we might have to bother you for two or three days."
"It's okay, Albus told me the other day that there might be a friend coming."
Nick Lemay was not surprised to see Li Chuan and the others, and invited them to his home very kindly, and then assigned each room to him.
It was already midnight, so everyone quickly fell asleep in the room.
Early the next morning, Li Chuan woke up early and went downstairs, and saw Nick Lemay preparing breakfast with magic in the kitchen, so he took the initiative to go up and help chat.
Sooner or later, he will have to spend time learning alchemy, and now that he has a good relationship with Nick Lemay, the most powerful alchemy master, he can naturally come over and ask him for advice later.
Older people like to chatter, and the same is true of Nick Lemay, the six-hundred-year-old man saw that Li Chuan was very willing to chat with him, and his favorability for him also rose.
He told Li Chuan that he was born in 1327, about the wizarding society of that era, how he fell in love with alchemy, how he refined various magical items, and how his highest achievement, the Philosopher's Stone.
"This is the Philosopher's Stone, and it's because my wife and I can live that long."
Speaking of pleasure, he also opened the closet next to him and pointed to a glass bottle in the closet, which contained a magical magic stone that glowed red.
Li Chuan looked at the philosopher's stone with an interested expression, but he didn't have any idea of wanting to keep it for himself.
The method of immortality can be obtained when he reaches the next Xianxia world, and it is normal for cultivators to live for hundreds or thousands of years, and their physical functions will only become stronger and stronger, not shrink.
And the ability of the Philosopher's Stone to convert into gold, he doesn't need it now.
At his current level, gold and money were no longer attractive, and the Overworld group was earning a lot of money every day that he couldn't spend.
"What a beautiful stone, Monsieur Lemay, and if I have time, may I come and ask you about alchemy?"
"Of course, I love it when people come and sit more, Albus used to be like you, but now that he's teaching students at Hogwarts, he rarely comes."
Nick Lemay has a good sense of Li Chuan, polite, funny, and patient to listen to chatter.
The most important thing is that when he showed the Philosopher's Stone just now, Li Chuan's eyes were clear but not greedy, which is rare, and only Albus Dumbledore did it at the beginning.
After the two chatted for a while, Newt and the three of them also got up and went downstairs.
"What are we going to do next?"
After breakfast, Queenie asked.
And Li Chuan directly said his plan:
"My suggestion is to split into two groups, with you in groups of three going to find Tina, and then find out what's going on with the International Federation of Wizards and the various ministries of magic.
I went it alone, trying to figure out the exact time and place of their meeting among the dark wizards.
We'll come back here in the evening to meet up. ”
"No, Tom, it's too dangerous for you to be alone, so let Tina and Jacob go to Tina, and I'll be safer with you."
Hearing Li Chuan's plan, Newt hesitated for a moment but still objected.
In fact, what he wants most now is definitely to find Tina to resolve the misunderstanding, but it is too dangerous to let Li Chuan sneak into the dark wizard alone, and Li Chuan is also his very good friend.
Li Chuan patted Newt on the shoulder:
"Don't worry about me, you forgot that I can transform into someone else without the Polyjuice Potion, and it's not that dangerous to sneak into the dark wizards, and even if I am discovered, it will not be a problem to escape with my skills.
And your appearance has long been on the blacklist of dark wizards, and you are easier to find out with me. ”
Hearing Li Chuan say this, Newt had no choice but to sigh:
"Then you must pay attention to safety!"
He knew that what Li Chuan said was right, maybe it would be safer for Li Chuan to go alone.
So after the four of them left Nick Lemay's villa, Newt and the three went to the French Ministry of Magic again to find out about Tina, while Li Chuan directly transformed into a mysterious person Phantom and came to Grindelwald's base.
He didn't need to infiltrate at all, and his other identity was Grindelwald's number one general.
The reason why they had to act separately was just to make it easier to come over for a meeting, and to find time to go back to Dumbledore to fight when the time came.
Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to stay together all the time.
In the base, after the meeting, Grindelwald found Li Chuan alone:
"The meeting will be tomorrow at eight o'clock in the evening, at the tomb of Father Lachaise, when are you going to do it?"
"I'm going to Hogwarts today to spy on Dumbledore, and tomorrow afternoon I'm going to take his life!"
Li Chuan thought for a while and replied.
Grindelwald nodded, he only needed Li Chuan to harass Dumbledore and distract Dumbledore, then the goal was achieved.
"It's best if you succeed, try to escape if you don't succeed, if you come in time, you can come over and join the rally together, so that you can see the true power of my improved Fire Spell."
"I'm going to get the job done as best I can."
Li Chuan smiled.
He's definitely going to come over, but not as a mystery man, but as Tom Foley on the surface.
After spending most of the day in Grindelwald's base, he returned to Magic Street to change back to his self.
Back at Nick Lemay's villa in the evening, the Newts had already returned one step ahead of him, and brought back Tina Goldstein.
"Tom, how's it going, have you figured out the exact time and place of the Grindelwald rally?"
Tina immediately asked anxiously when she saw Li Chuan.
This time, on the orders of the chairman, she led all the elite Aurors of the Congress to Paris, and formed an anti-witch task force with the Aurors of the British Ministry of Magic, the French Ministry of Magic and other Aurors.
However, the actions during this period have not yielded much results, they only know that Grindelwald's assembly is these days, but they do not know the specific time and place, so they are very passive.
"Tomorrow at eight o'clock in the evening, at the tomb of Father Lachaise!"
Li Chuan did not hesitate to tell Tina the most accurate information he had learned from Grindelwald.
Grindelwald is different from Dumbledore, fighting is definitely a killer move for him, so that Tina and the Aurors know the information and prepare in advance, and he will be easier to fight at that time.
