Hearing what Nicol LeMay said, the excitement in Ivan's heart slowly subsided.
He knew very well that this master alchemist had not made a mistake. He could only be considered a preliminary master of the method of engraving magic texts on mithril metal, and there was still a long way to go before it could be used freely in battle.
Thinking of this, Ivan closed his mind and picked up a piece of Mithril metal to practice again.
...
The next day, early in the morning, after breakfast, Ivan sat in the study room with great interest.
However, Nicol LeMay didn't mean to explain directly, but asked. "What do you think the Philosopher's Stone is?"
"A very powerful alchemical substance?" Ivan was stunned, and then replied hesitantly. His understanding of the Philosopher's Stone came from the description of some books, and he had no substantive understanding at all.
"The same can be said, but it is also a huge source of magic power. If its users can master specific methods, they can use this huge magic power to achieve their own goals. It's all the result of using magic power..." Nicol Lemay talked freely.
"It's a bit like using another method to release magic." Ivan muttered to himself, touching his chin.
"Yes, I should have told you that magic and alchemy are ultimately a way of using magic power..." Nicole LeMay nodded and continued to explain to Ivan.
"The difference between the two is that one relies entirely on the magic power in one's own body, and the other can choose external force."
Ivan pondered for a while, and soon understood the meaning of Nicol LeMay's words.
Alchemy is equivalent to wands, spells, and gestures. Its role is to guide magic power, while the Philosopher’s Stone can replace itself as another source of magic power.
But since he has magical powers, why did he make a magic stone specially? Just to make your magic power more?
Ivan nodded. As a self-reliant person, he never expected Nicol LeMay to help him complete the production of the Philosopher's Stone.
But what makes Ivan a little puzzled is what kind of place is considered to be full of magic power?
Faced with Ivan's question, Nicol LeMay pondered for a while, then suddenly said. "Perhaps you can find it in Hogwarts."
"Hogwarts?!" Ivan said in surprise.
"Yes! This magic school has been able to run smoothly for thousands of years, and it is likely to have a magic power storage room to absorb the magic power that escapes near the school, so as to provide for the operation of the entire castle." Nicol LeMay explained .
Evanton felt his eyes light up. He had always wondered how Hogwarts was so big, with ever-changing secret passages and stairs, how to solve the problem of magic power supply.
If it is true as Nicol Lemay guessed, the magic power accumulated over the millennia of the entire castle is definitely a huge value, enough for him to make a magic stone.
Moreover, as long as these extra magical powers are not excessively consumed, they should not affect the operation of the castle That is to say, Dumbledore is likely to allow him to use the magical storage room to make a magic stone.
Thinking of this, Ivan breathed a sigh of relief, but there was a faint worry in his heart, because he did not know the specific location of the magic storage room, and was even more worried that Dumbledore would not know.
After all, Hogwarts is so mysterious, even as the principal knows very little.
Of course, there may be another obstacle, that is, Dumbledore knew the inside story but was unwilling to tell him, or the old professor had died unfortunately when the school started, that would be troublesome.
Ivan didn’t show the slight anxiety that arose in his heart. As Nicol Lemay said, these problems need to be solved by him...
After a simple lunch, Ivan didn't rest for a moment, and continued to learn from Nico Lemay the alchemy circle needed to make the Philosopher's Stone. In the middle of the night, he worked overtime as usual to practice enchanting magic.
Now there are only less than two days left before the official school starts. He must master all the relevant alchemy knowledge...NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
