Chapter 45 Magic Stone
"Okay, little brat, are you happy with the game? It's my turn!" Seeing Caesar playing with the magician endlessly, Xu Fang couldn't wait.
"For you!" Caesar glanced at Xu Fang and threw the magic stone over with an unhappy look on his face.
Xu took the magic stone, his face suddenly changed, and he showed a fierce expression, and looked at Caesar and Harry with murderous aura, "Wow... you were trapped, the magic stone finally fell into my hands. You are useless. Now I will send you to hell."
Harry suddenly thought Xu Fang was really going to kill someone to silence him, so he picked up his wand and was ready to fight to the death, but Caesar was a black line. He walked to Xu Fang in a fierce manner and kicked Xu Fang hard in the leg, "Please, dad, don't joke at this time, okay, will it scare people?"
The ferociousness on Xu Fang's face suddenly disappeared, he curled his lips, and said with an unhappy look: "It seems that he has suffered a lot and learned his lesson. He hasn't deceived you. Well, I won't play for now!"
Harry's face turned dark, it turned out that you were just playing around, almost scaring me of a heart attack.
After the trouble, Xu began to carefully check the Philosopher's Stone in the capital, trying to figure out what the secret of this magic stone has that it can actually realize its wish.
At the beginning, Xu Fang was a little casual, but his face gradually became serious. Then he gritted his teeth and suddenly threw away the magic stone in his hand, with a hint of fear on his face, as if the magic stone was something terrible.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Is it okay?"
Caesar looked at his father with a worried look. Since he had a memory, it was the first time he saw his father like this. What is the secret of the Philosopher's Stone? He made his father so scared.
"I finally understand what the Philosopher's Stone is. This kind of thing should not exist in the world at all. Remember, try not to contact the magicians in the future, as far away as possible." Finally, Xu Fang stared at Caesar with a serious face and reminded him.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with the Philosopher's Stone? What did you find? Explain it clearly!"
"I understand the nature of the Philosopher's Stone, it's really terrible."
"The essence of a magician? Why do you become more and more confused as you say it? Explain it clearly to me." Caesar was very dissatisfied. Could this be the so-called way of speaking by a master?
"Simply put, the so-called magic factory is just a collection of countless souls. There is a saying in the Muggle world that souls have weight. Someone once used precision instruments to do experiments. The moment a person dies, his weight will be reduced by a few micrograms instantly. 1,000 micrograms equal to one milligram, and 1,000 milligrams equal to one gram. How many souls do you think it is necessary to make it with the weight of this philosopher's stone."
Caesar and Harry were stunned at the same time, looking at the Philosopher's Stone on the ground, and suddenly felt a chill hitting their hearts.
Kaida's face turned pale with his naked eyes, "Dad, aren't you kidding? Don't tell me that this philosopher's stone is made of millions of souls. Tell me, this is not true."
Xu Fang did not answer Caesar and said in a heavy tone: "Human belief is a very powerful force, even if it becomes a soul. If there is a strong enough belief, it can turn the impossible into a possibility and do many things that ordinary people cannot do. The belief of a soul is limited, then what changes will happen if the beliefs of tens of thousands and millions of souls gather together?"
Caesar and Harry swallowed, feeling their scalp numb. At this moment, they no longer yearned for the Philosopher's Stone, only fear and fear
"The so-called philosopher's stone is when someone collects millions of souls, forcibly squeezes, grinds and crushes them, and transforms them into another form. Because there are enough quantities, the invisible souls have been transformed into substances and become the stone in front of you."
Harry asked in a little indignant manner, "Did the person who made this Philosopher's Stone kill millions of innocent lives?"
"Maybe it was not killed by the people who made magic stones. There has never been a lack of war in the history of roots. If a wizard mingles on the battlefield, slowly collects souls and spends more time, perhaps millions of souls can be collected. The process of making magic stones is too cruel for the soul. It erases the original consciousness of the soul bit by bit, leaving only instinct to form this stone.
Since it is formed by the soul, the Philosopher's Stone is equivalent to gathering the beliefs of millions of souls. Even if only simple instincts are left, it has powerful power. Therefore, the Philosopher's Stone has various theories of legends, which can turn stones into gold, make people rich overnight, make people live long, make people resurrected from the dead, and realize their wishes. However, few people have the price of realizing their wishes in one go. This kind of wish that is based on the pain of millions of souls is better not to be desirable."
Now Caesar and Harry understand why Xu Fang had such a ghost expression before. They are almost the same now and hurriedly promised: "Yes, it's better not to have such a wish!"
At this moment, the three of them thought of the maker of the alchemy stone, the legendary greatest alchemist Nico Meller. The original respect disappeared. Perhaps the soul who made the philosopher's stone was not killed by him, but using so many souls as materials to make philosopher's stones is an extremely evil thing in itself, and even more evil than Voldemort.
Xu Fang took out a bottle with magic runes engraved on the surface from his pocket, carefully put the Philosopher's Stone in it, and then stuffed it into Harry's hand, "You save the Philosopher's Stone first, and when Dumbledore comes back, you just give it to him yourself. Don't tell others that I have been here."
After Xu Fang said that, he turned around and left, not giving Harry a chance to keep him.
Harry looked at the bottle in his hand and didn't know what to do. If possible, he really wanted to throw it away immediately and leave the Philosopher's Stone by his side. Harry was worried that he would have nightmares at night.
"That Caesar, I'm not sure if I carry such a precious thing with the Philosopher's Stone. What if someone robs me? Your strength is worse than me, so why don't you keep it!" Harry handed the bottle in his hand with a flattering look on his face.
"I think you want to be a fool. You should keep it yourself!"
"Help help! Boss, I'm afraid! It feels like millions of souls are around you, and this feeling is too uncomfortable."
"Is it useful to call me boss now? Am I not afraid? Just bear it!"
After saying that, Caesar turned around and walked back along the way, leaving Harry to ignore no matter how he shouted from behind. Harry could only cry and carefully carry the bottle of the Philosopher's Stone to follow behind.
Fortunately, Dumbledore returned to Hogwarts not long after. After receiving the news, he immediately called Hayu and the other four to the principal's office to ask about the incident.
As soon as they met, Harry gave the Philosopher's Stone to Dumbledore, and it looked like he was holding a hot potato.
"Okay, I know what happened. Thank you very much for protecting the Philosopher's Stone. I will add credits to you."
"Uh, OK, thank you!" Harry just wanted to take off the Philosopher's Stone as soon as possible, and he didn't care whether he added credits or not.
"Harry, you seem to hate the Philosopher's Stone. Can you tell me why?"
"Is there any? Professor, have you read it wrong? Why did it happen?" Harry immediately denied.
But I didn't know that his performance was more suspicious. Even Ron next to me could see it, "Harry, what's wrong with you? I wanted to see the Magic Stone before, you didn't let you go. At first I thought you were stingy, but now it seems that there is another reason."
Hermione also nodded, "Yes, we all see, Harry, to be honest, is there something wrong with the magician?"
Harry faced Hermione and the others' doubtful eyes, and after a moment of silence, he finally spoke: "Professor Dumbledore, the Philosopher's Stone is made of human souls, right?"
"Soul, how is this possible? Harry, are you wrong?" Ron said with a funny face, feeling like he had heard the biggest joke in the world. The Philosopher's Stone is the work of the greatest alchemist Nikomele. How could it be made of human souls? It was simply evil black magic.
"Harry, don't think about it. Maybe you're too tired, just have a good sleep." Hermione thought the same way, not thinking that the alchemist is such a evil existence.
But Harry and Hermione didn't notice that Dumbledore's face had changed, and he sighed and said, "Harry is right. The Philosopher's Stone is indeed made of human souls, and there are many, many..."
"What? This is impossible!"
"Just kidding!"
Ron and Hermione screamed at the same time, the answer was too unexpected!
"Oh, this is the fact. To be honest, Nick Meller also regrets making this Philosopher's Stone. Although it gave him immortality, it was also a curse for him, so he handed over the Philosopher's Stone to me and hoped that I would find an opportunity to destroy the magician."
"It's true." Ron felt that his three views were impacted, and his worship of the greatest alchemist disappeared?
Not to mention Hermione, she even felt that Nicomele was the most evil person in the world.
"Cough cough!" Feeling a little awkward, Caesar coughed twice, attracting everyone's attraction, and then took out a crown and said, "Okay, the Philosopher's Stone has been handed over to you. Even if this matter comes to an end, this crown was obtained by chance, a bit unusual, and I think it is best to hand it over to you."
Dumbledore saw the crown and showed a nostalgic expression on his face, but when he reached out to catch it, his expression suddenly changed drastically. Dumbledore said seriously: "This hat is very dangerous. I want to deal with it immediately. You guys leave first."
"Okay, professor, we'll leave right away!"
Caesar, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were still thinking of Dumbledore's serious expression even though they walked out of the principal's office.
Ron's curiosity was picked up again and asked Caesar: "Is there anything special about that golden crown?"
Caesar shook his head, "I don't know very well, maybe it's precious, maybe it's dangerous."
"Or it's precious and dangerous." Just now Harry's head hurts again, and he feels that the golden crown is not simple.
Hermione finally concluded: "Whatever it is? Since it has been handed over to Dempgreen's professor, he will handle it well, so we don't have to worry about it."
Caesar and the other two thought about it, and this is the same reason. In order to investigate the Magic Stone recently, I haven't had a good sleep for several days. Now the matter has finally been resolved. I should have a good rest. I'd better prepare for the next class.
After figuring it out, the mood suddenly relaxed and the four of them returned to the lounge honestly.
Chapter completed!
