Chapter 973 The Elixir of Longevity
Will water be useful in the future?
Of course it worked.
After taking it, you can predict some future scenes.
If you use it well, it's like Trelawney who opened up the great prophecy... At a critical moment, it may affect the history of the next few decades.
If it is not used well, it may be the advance on-demand mode, which is useless except for watching "small movies" in advance.
Of course, like Felicia, it cannot be abused, otherwise it will lead to schizophrenia.
William never used it.
Can be used, but not necessary.
Because he has Nicole Flamel, a free advance on-demand platform.
But it didn't stop William from wanting to get this potion.
Nico is not always around, there are always unexpected moments.
And the boiling process of water in the future will be too complicated.
Compared with the six months of Felicity Elixir, the cooking cycle of future water is as long as thirteen months.
So not to mention in stores, even in the black market, there are very few people selling them.
Wizards who can brew this kind of potion, given their level, are not short of money, so why do they bother to sell it so hard?
At most, it is bartering.
Taking out this thing, Professor Slughorn definitely paid the price.
He just deliberately tried his best to arouse William's interest and get this big "baby".
It's like a blind date.
It's best to show the "real estate certificate" at the beginning, and it must be accompanied by "change to your name"... This kind of ultimate bomb.
Otherwise, the goddess will rub you for a few meals at most, and then run away.
They didn't even give you a chance to take over.
"So," laughed Slughorn, "how do you win this wonderful prize? Well, turn to page 58 in your textbook.
This class requires you to brew an elixir of life! "
The students all opened their textbooks in unison and came to a place slightly behind.
"Professor, is this potion really able to live forever?" Judy Crouch raised her hand curiously.
"Don't be stupid, kid." Slughorn raised his finger and shook:
"In this world, there is only one elixir made by one person that can achieve longevity.
That is Monsieur Nicole Flamel.
If he was still alive, he would be 670 years old now. "
Everyone was amazed, at this age, just a fraction...maybe sitting in the majority of people, can't live that long
too frightening.
"Is there any difference between his elixir formula and ours?" McLaggen was eager to know the answer, and already arched forward.
Of course, it may also be because of the protection of magical animals class, he was bitten by a snake, and the wound has not healed yet.
"Of course the formula is different, because we lack the most important material...the Philosopher's Stone!" Slughorn showed a yearning look.
In the elixir of life, the most important material is the magic stone.
Compared with the real steps, the brewing steps in the textbook are the difference between the beggar's version and the richest man's version.
"Can't we make the Philosopher's Stone?" someone yelled.
"Son, in the past 600 years, only Mr. Nicole May has made it. Do you think this is too difficult?" Slughorn said with a smile:
"If you can make it, please let me touch it. Because the last Sorcerer's Stone has long been destroyed."
Everyone muttered, and only then remembered the previous news reports.
Six years ago, Dumbledore said: In order to prevent it from being stolen, the Philosopher's Stone was destroyed.
The little wizards all beat their chests, as if if the Philosopher's Stone still existed, they could inherit it.
Slughorn just smiled. He actually knew more.
For example...he wondered if Nicole Flamel deliberately sold out his account and ran away, waiting for a hundred years before coming out again.
Because it wasn't the first time he had done this, news of Nicolas May's death spread every once in a while.
It's like Hayao Miyazaki, who said time and time again that he wanted to retire, but after a few years, he would always jump out unwilling to be lonely.
It has been many years since he retired last time, everyone is still waiting for his comeback, and then apologized:
"I am back again."
Whether Nico was dead or not, Slughorn didn't know, but he had heard Fudge say:
William is his disciple!
Many people are speculating why William has such a powerful alchemy.It turned out to be inherited from this big man.
Slughorn believes: "If there is anyone else who can make the Philosopher's Stone again, it must be William."
That's why he decided to teach the potion in the first lesson.
hinting...
Slughorn doesn't want to live another 500 years either, 50 years is enough.
He really wanted to drink a cup of the elixir made by the Philosopher's Stone!
"Then since we can't really live forever, why do we still boil it?" Another student questioned.
"Although the potions we make are not as powerful as those made by the Philosopher's Stone.
But it also has the effect of prolonging life to some extent. ’ explained Slughorn.
"But it's useless to drink too much. There is no magic stone, and the elixir produced will develop resistance after a few times of use, making it completely unusable."
Wizards in the wizarding world generally live longer than Muggles.
Not to mention Dumbledore and his younger brother, and the 110-year-old old man like Slughorn...
And Newt's eldest family is also a hundred years old.
And the longest-serving Minister for Magic ever - Faris Spavin, who became Minister at 109 and retired at 147.
He even secretly attended Queen Victoria's funeral.
With a pitifully small base of wizards, there can still be so many long-lived wizards, which is enough to prove that wizards generally live longer than Muggles.
the reason is simple:
The filling of magic power in the body makes the body function very well.
Coupled with this beggar's version of the elixir of life, it can also play a role in prolonging life.
"Professor, can Muggles drink?" the student with Muggle background asked.
He would love to have some for his parents.
"Of course." Slughorn said with a big belly and a smile:
"The queen bought two bottles of medicine from me for her and her husband.
Judging from the queen's physical condition, she can live for a long time.
But her husband's body is not doing well.In his early years, he had a Thursday club, and what London nudist camp.
The body has been hollowed out long ago, but it is estimated that he can live to 99 years old. "
Knowing that the Prince had 20 more years to live made many Muggle-born wizards nervous.
This prince is always the simplest mouth stinky, the most extreme enjoyment. Let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' ten years of hard work come to naught.
It's really unbearable.
After hearing Professor Slughorn's words, everyone desperately began to brew this kind of "elixir of life" that cannot live forever.
Fertility issues have always been the biggest headache in the wizarding world.
And because of the outbreak of war, the number of wizards continued to decrease.
In the case of insufficient manpower, the Ministry of Magic recently proposed the necessity of delaying retirement.
They don't want to work for the Ministry of Magic's "health" for 50 years and end up without social security.
