Chapter 133: Only Time Can Defeat Time
The Book of Abraham, a legendary alchemy book, is Nicol's most important magical item.
Not one of them!
With this deathly height, he created the Philosopher's Stone and lived for six hundred years.
Even among the nine Deathly Hallows, which are of various types and styles, the usefulness of this alchemy book can be ranked at the forefront.
Because according to the story of the three brothers, the eldest asked for a book that contained all the alchemy in the world.
This book really has it all.
It is divided into three volumes in total.
The first book has the magical world, how to make all alchemy items.
It is equivalent to an invisible cloud, as long as you invent an alchemy item on the other side, it will be automatically archived and backed up.
The so-called core technology secrecy is a joke in front of this book.
The contents of the second book describe the method of refining the deathly hallows.
Once unlocked, you can artificially create a Deathly Hallow, just like the Grim Reaper.
The content of the third book will appear alchemy items that have never appeared in the world.
As soon as you ask for it, it will give you the way to refine it.
But the point is that the seventh page of the first group and the seventh page of the second group are depicted with the magic wand devoured by the python and a goblet, respectively.
Without a wand and a goblet, you can't see the contents of the next two groups.
Nicol had to collect all three Deathly Hallows in order to study the book thoroughly.
Slytherin's wand, which Tom is looking for; The goblet is also the Holy Grail, and Nicol has a clue as well.
But he didn't force it, for Merlin had left behind an almost prophetic proverb before he vanished:
You don't have to look for the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail will come to you.
Nicol is more superstitious about this kind of thing.
It's like the dream that guided him to find the alchemy book.
Ordinary people dream of strange things, and the next day they will at most reminisce about it, and then forget it completely.
But after eating breakfast, he didn't spend much time and made a decisive decision that changed his life.
As for the hooded wizard in the dream, who is it? Nicol had no way of knowing.
He could only guess that it was either Abraham, the previous book holder, or Death himself.
William was more inclined to death, because if it was Abraham, he had no reason to find Nicol, a Frenchman.
If it's the Grim Reaper, the problem comes again. Why did he guide Nicol to the book of alchemy?
Why does the Grim Reaper keep sending out the Deathly Hallows in batches?
It can be said that with the spread of the story of the three brothers, there has always been the shadow of death for thousands of years.
What the hell is he trying to do?
This is probably the same thing as why Ravenclaw destroyed the crown, making it difficult to find out the truth.
Unless one day, William can stand between Death and Ravenclaw, and then he can ask in person:
Why are you?
After leaving the lab, William walked down the path alone and returned to his room.
Pushing the door open, he found Hermione in the house.
She sat at the table, already asleep at the desk, slender shoulders, slight snoring, she should be tired.
During this time, Hermione was really tired, she had to use a time turner, and she had to study a lot of subjects.
Occasionally, he helped William with potions, and he had to sort out Hagrid's defense while he was busy.
Almost every day is a high-intensity operation.
Crook Hill is guarding the side, secretly playing Bobosha's cat teaser.
Seeing that William was coming, it hurriedly stopped this image-damaging activity, and continued to put on a persimmon face, pretending to be cold.
And Bobo Tea and Bo Bosha, I don't know where to run for a night tour.
William gently moved a chair and sat next to Hermione, watching her homework neatly put away after she finished.
Under her arms, she still pressed a piece of parchment that had not yet been written, and in front of her lay an open book.
William looked down, and it was "A Study of the Savagery of Hippogriffs" - an introduction to the special characteristics of winged beasts.
William withdrew his gaze and looked at the girl who was patiently waiting for him to return.
Hermione probably fell asleep by accident, wearing only her self-knitted sweater on the upper half of her body, and her thick coat hung from the back of the chair.
Although the room was warm, the cold winter night was deep, and the temperature difference between day and night was extremely large, so she subconsciously hugged her arms when she slept, most of which was a little cold.
William sighed, waved his wand, and his tweed coat floated from the shelf, and he carefully put it on for her.
"William." Hermione murmured softly.
William thought the girl had been woken up by him, so he said 'um', but received no response.
It turned out to be talking in a dream.
William carefully pulled out the parchment from under her arm.
In the dead of night, only the sound of Hermione's breathing and the gentle rustling of a quill across the parchment.
William flipped through the unfinished book and continued to write his defense for her.
When he put pen to paper, there was a big difference between his handwriting and Hermione's.
But Hermione's imitation of William's handwriting has seven or eight points. So many of his letters were replied to by her at will.
When he flipped through the entire book, William looked up and saw that it was almost eleven o'clock.
He packed everything and prepared to carry Hermione back to her room.
Crookshank had been crouching quietly to the side, revealing an unfathomable look.
It looked like Hermione.
It stared at William, as if to remind him not to take advantage of the opportunity to do strange things.
"Silly cat!" William pursed his lips and whispered, "Hagrid has a three-headed dog named Louwe, and next time I introduce you to him, he will definitely like you." ”
Crookshank rolled up its ears, and a persimmon face became even uglier, and it licked its paws again and yawned boredly.
Your sister was actually despised by a cat!
William hugged Hermione horizontally, her slender waist bent and her head pressed against William's chest.
Hermione, who had not slept peacefully, suddenly felt that she was being picked up, opened her eyes in a daze, and then said happily: "William...... You're back! ”
"Hmm." William didn't put down the girl, but said softly: "It's late, I'll send you back to the house to sleep, right?" ”
Hermione shook her head, rubbed her eyes, and said with concern, "How is it, is the crown repaired?" ”
Since Hermione didn't want to sleep, William hugged her and walked towards his bed, placing her on top of her.
Hermione rolled lazily on the soft bed, hugging up the bedside pillow, curled up like a kitten.
William sat on the edge of the bed and told her about the crown.
After listening, Hermione put her little head on the pillow, her unkempt hair hanging down, and frowned slightly:
"But we don't know where the Slytherin wand is, do we?"
"So, it's up to Tom." William shrugged helplessly.
That's right, Tom is now the hope of the whole village!
He also hates this passive situation, but that's the reality.
"Hmm...... It's not safe at all, and we can't be sure if we can get the wand back from him. Hermione narrowed her eyes, as if sleepiness had swept over again.
"We've got to have a Plan B."
She struggled to think of a solution, and felt the time turner around her neck, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration.
"William, I've got a good idea!" She rejoiced.
"What's the solution?"
"Maybe, we can take advantage of the time turner!" Hermione said slowly.
William was stunned, and he suddenly found that the feasibility seemed to be very high.
The essence of a time turner is to seal a stable hour reversal spell.
At that time, Tywin introduced the power of the stolen time-turner into the doorring of the Ravenclaw Lounge to obtain the ring.
Tywin's "Esoteric Philosophy in Three Volumes" was also copied by William.
With his current ability, he can also use this power to forcibly restore the crown to its former state.
Only time can deal with time!
"But we don't have a time-turner." William said, "The one of yours has to be returned to the Ministry of Magic." ”
The time turners are all placed in the Mystic Division of the Ministry of Magic, and it is impossible for ordinary people to get them.
"Then go steal...... All right. Hermione became more and more sleepy, yawned, and said in a daze, "It's not that I haven't attacked...... Ministry of Magic. ”
“……”
William was about to say something, but Hermione was already leaning against the pillow, snoring slightly, and fell asleep peacefully.
William stood up, carefully removed the time-turner from her neck, and placed it on the bedside table.
He also covered Hermione with a thick quilt and carefully tucked the corners of the quilt to prevent her from sleeping dishonestly in the middle of the night.
With all that done, William was ready to take off his clothes and go to sleep.
Wait a minute......
Hermione slept in his bed, so where did he sleep tonight?
