Chapter 502 Nicolas Flamel
Chapter 502 Nico Flamel
The banquet finally ended. The Malfoy family eliminated some enemies, Wei Changfeng gained some reputation, and Li Zhuoguang gained some souls. Except for the five Death Eaters who were consumed as consumables, everyone was happy.
After the guests had dispersed, Narcissa put Draco to sleep. After all, he was still a teenager, and it was a bit too exciting to suddenly see such a bloody scene.
But Narcissa knew that this was something every Malfoy should experience. As the patriarch of a pure-blood family known for its wealth, one could not be afraid of blood. If you are afraid of the enemy's blood, sooner or later you will be torn to pieces by the wolves surrounding you.
Narcissa came out of Draco's room and saw that the light was still on in Lucius's study. When he walked in, he saw Lucius sitting behind the desk, asking the house elf to pour him a glass of strong wine.
Narcissa was a little surprised. Although there was indeed strong liquor in the wine cellar at home, it was for entertaining guests. Lucius almost never drank strong liquor. Because the Malfoy family has too many properties, and for some reasons, there is no one around Lucius who can help him, so he can only deal with business issues by himself.
Drinking strong alcohol is such a waste of time.
Walking to Lucius's side and seeing him staring blankly at the notebook on the desk, Narcissa said in relief: "Lou, haven't we already decided?"
"I just decided to bring something in through Harry Potter."
Narcissa was startled: "Didn't you say not to provoke the savior at will?"
Lucius drank the strong wine in the glass: "Five Death Eaters died in my mansion. I must do something to balance it. And if things are lost from my hands, he should also play some role. In the most extreme cases there are excuses.
After all, as outsiders say, we Malfoy are just helpless people, but I prefer to call it 'balance'. Sissy, you need to remember that we Malfoy can't do everything, and we can't completely fall to any side. This is our way of survival. "
Even though Lucius said this, Narcissa was still a little worried: "What if Harry Potter dies because of this?"
Lucius shook his head: "No, he was injured under Dumbledore's nose at most. But don't worry, I won't do this in the near future. After all, someone died in our family." , those Aurors are still paying attention here until next school year."
While the couple was talking, they didn't notice the complicated light in the eyes of the house elf holding the bottle of wine at the side.
Soon, Christmas passed, and it was time for Li Zhuoguang and Po Jun to return to school. Wei Changfeng is also ready to take office as a member of Parliament. After he takes office, he will establish a werewolf rescue foundation with the Malfoy family. And because of the attack on Malfoy's house, he will vigorously promote the elimination of Death Eaters.
In this way, Li Zhuoguang and William's requests can be fulfilled, and Wei Changfeng can earn a lot of reputation and increase his voice in the Wizengamot.
The process of returning to school was very simple. Li Zhuoguang and Po Jun almost walked there. After a while, we arrived at the school gate, just in time for dinner.
Everyone on the Slytherin table looked at Li Zhuoguang in awe when they saw him walking into the hall. Many young Slytherin wizards were witnesses of the Malfoy family's banquet. He saw with his own eyes how Li Zhuoguang dealt with those Death Eaters.
Now almost everyone in Slytherin knows.
Li Zhuoguang walked towards the long table, and someone immediately made room for him and thoughtfully poured pumpkin juice for him. At this moment, Li Zhuoguang seemed like the king of Slytherin.
As soon as Po Jun entered the hall, Hermione pulled her over. She pulled her aside furtively and asked, "Are you from a pure-blood family?"
Po Jun scratched his head and remembered that their current external persona was that of a pure-blood family from the East, and it was correct that she was a pure-blood ghost clan member, so he replied: "Yes."
Hermione breathed a sigh of relief: "You are the only reliable pure-blood family I know, so you must know this issue..."
"Hey! I'm still here." Ron on the side muttered dissatisfiedly: "And she is Li Zhuoguang's sister, that evil Slytherin, who knows she... oops!"
Ron was beaten under the table by Po Jun, and both Hermione and Harry were used to their way of getting along. Hermione continued to ask: "Then have you heard of Nico Flamel?"
Po Jun scratched his head again, stood up and ran directly to the Slytherin table and found Li Zhuoguang. Hermione and Harry watched in horror as this happened, with no time to stop it.
Although their prejudice against Slytherin is not as deep as in the original book because of the siblings Po Jun and Li Zhuoguang, the object of their suspicion now is the other party's dean.
When they saw Po Jun pointing to their side, Li Zhuoguang stood up and walked over, and the two of them quickly lowered their heads. The other little wizards at the Gryffindor table were also in danger.
Purebloods are very well informed, and many of them know what Li Zhuoguang did during Christmas.
Li Zhuoguang and Po Jun sat directly opposite Hermione and Harry, and asked knowingly: "Why do you want to ask about Nico Flamel?"
Li Zhuoguang had already spoken, and the two of them stopped pretending. They laughed awkwardly for a while and started to make excuses: "I just saw this name in the book, but I couldn't find any other information."
Li Zhuoguang glanced at Ron who had just gotten up from the ground: "Didn't Weasley grow up in a wizard family? Nicolas Flamel is so famous, he should know about it, right?"
Hearing what Li Zhuoguang said. Ron's face flushed immediately: "Not everyone likes to pay attention to this kind of weird and unpopular knowledge."
Li Zhuoguang didn't say much, just looked at Ron with pity and shook his head, which made him even more helpless and furious. Then Li Zhuoguang explained to Hermione and Harry: "Nicolas Flamel is a talented and famous alchemist, born in 1327, and is still alive. He and his wife have recently moved to England and live in Devon."
The Iron Triangle was shocked and said: "He is still alive now?! Doesn't that mean he is more than 600 years old?"
Li Zhuoguang nodded: "Yes, he is famous for his longevity. This cannot but mention his greatest creation, the Philosopher's Stone. The Philosopher's Stone has had many names in history, such as the Philosopher's Stone, the Philosopher's Stone, and the Panacea.
In addition to being used to refine gold, it can also be used to make an elixir of life, making those who take it immortal."
Harry immediately said: "What if the Philosopher's Stone falls into the hands of the bad guys..."
Then he realized his slip of the tongue and immediately shut up. Li Zhuoguang chuckled. Dumbledore had told him about the side effects of the Philosopher's Stone in order to dispel his idea of obtaining the Philosopher's Stone. When he was reading the original novel, he couldn't understand why Nicolas Flamel and his wife chose to die. Now it seems that they are mentally strong for holding on until now.
Li Zhuoguang said: "If it falls into the hands of bad people, at most they can use it to refine gold. The goblins in Gringotts don't mind people trading with them in gold.
But if they know that someone is making gold and destroying their financial and monetary system. Without the Ministry of Magic taking action, crazy goblins all over the world will rush to tear that person to pieces."
Harry asked tentatively: "What if the bad guys use the Philosopher's Stone to refine the elixir of immortality?"
Li Zhuoguang shook his head: "Although it is a bit disrespectful to Nicolas Flamel to say this, I still have to say that only people with serious brain diseases will use the Philosopher's Stone to prolong their lives.
Using the Philosopher's Stone to prolong life will have serious side effects. People just won't die, not that they won't become old and weak. Today's Nicolas Flamel, I'm afraid that if he breathes a little harder, his ribs will be broken.
I even suspect that he has held on until now just because he doesn't want his greatest creation to become a joke."
