Just do it, Allen neatly prepares the required materials in the order of addition, and places them in the groove on the top of the corresponding marble column in the order of the six-pointed star.
On the left and right sides of the furnace are two ravens and giant eagles that exude light. The giant eagle on the left exudes silver-white light, and the raven on the right exudes pure black mist-if the black mist is considered light If so, their beaks are directly above the opening of the furnace crucible.
The surface of this furnace crucible is embossed with a dragon with five heads of different colors. The scales below its neck will change with the angle of sight. Among them, the dragon sculpture has red dragon scales in the middle. The dragon's head came out, like the giant eagle and the raven, with his mouth facing the top of the cauldron, Allen saw the most important raw material of the magic stone from the teeth of the dragon, the method of which is unknown Rough.
The other dragon heads of blue, black, green and white were activated one by one after Allen input magic power according to Ravenclaw's manuscript. Their mouths spit out something similar to the breath of a fire dragon. These dragon flames Gathering around the hearth, the crucible became hot in a short time.
The mural facing the melting pot is the sun and moon with human faces in the upper left and upper right corners simultaneously appearing on the sky of the dark world in the painting. They move slowly at different speeds to show their identity as a timing device.
Allen put in the materials one by one, and adjusted the temperature of the five-headed dragon furnace according to the method that Jeber had learned.
As the temperature gradually increased, the mouths of the two sculptures of eagle and raven gradually opened up.
According to the information left by Ravenclaw at the scene, Allen placed the materials prepared by Ravenclaw in the two beaks in turn, mixed them in and closed the beaks.
With the height of the temperature, the giant eagle and the raven and even the dragon began to re-open their mouths-like a ruminant, the three are flowing faintly silver between liquid and gas. And the black jelly that seemed to absorb all the energy and the blood-red liquid that had been liquefied from the rough stone flowed out from it.
Although Ravenclaw’s manuscript and Jeber’s expressions are slightly different, the records here are almost exactly the same. They respectively represent: water silver, used to transform the form of matter, and the function of turning stones into gold is because of its function. The functions provided are realized. Pure black is to provide the function of absorbing substances and abilities from various materials in the alchemy process. Blood red, rich in vitality can be used to make elixir, which is missing from Ravenclaw's manuscripts and Jeber’s experience The part is exactly how the scarlet part is made. From the few words on some other pages, it seems that the process of making this rough stone will take advantage of the vitality of others. Allen thinks this may be the lack of this in the Ravenclaw manuscript. A few pages of reasons.
Just like the potion that was originally a branch of alchemy, this is a boring and complicated process. It is necessary to add the correct materials at different times to change the finished product in the crucible to the correct step-Ai Lun can no longer judge how many hours he has stayed here, but fortunately, this is not a blessing potion that needs to be boiled for at least half a year, although they also add this time to the incorrect time if they are a little careless. The raw materials that should not be added will be used up and even other unpredictable risks will occur.
At the last moment of alchemy, Allen, who had no time to think about how he would explain what he did during his disappearance after he went out, is about to add the most precious blind material to the cauldron, that is, the Hermes bird's wings.
The wings were added to the furnace, instantly mixing all the liquids in it, wrapping them up, and forming a dark green irregular round mud-like shape—this is also the failure form recorded in the Ravenclaw manuscript. Recalling what Jaber had learned, Alan gritted his teeth and once again output magic power to raise the temperature of the furnace. The hot flames in the mouth of the dragon-shaped reliefs on the surface of the cauldron were twisting and dancing desperately in the furnace.
The dark green mud could not hold up under such a high temperature, and it was difficult to maintain its original appearance. It slowly melted from the mud to liquid again, and Allen gleefully watched the dark green gradually become saturated with blood red.
"It's finished!" Allen was ecstatic. In the process of refining, he had completely forgotten that he was trapped in the statue, that he had to complete the task, and was completely immersed in alchemy. The made Philosopher's Stone lay quietly in the middle of the furnace. Allen extinguished the fire and looked at the irregular red crystalline stone with the light from time to time across the surface.
"Dean, did you say that this is the last test?" Allen reminded the air, but he didn't find that the founder of Ravenclaw, who showed his figure again with his voice, successfully made magic on him Shi has any emotional changes.
"Alan Harris, you successfully completed all the tests...you are eligible for my treasure." After speaking, Rowena placed a radiant crown on the table. Its appearance is the same as before. The crowns Allen received were no different, but Allen was sensitive to the fact that the magic power they contained was not on the same level.
"The crown you used to open the statue is just my early work. Although it is very memorable, it does not add real wisdom to the holder. Otherwise, Helena who wears it will not be blinded by greed. , Made a defection. And this top—" Rowena pointed to the crown and said with satisfaction, "This top was developed before my physical death. It not only allows people to keep their minds clear at any time, but also allows you See the true desire in your heart. It will not go wrong. It can give you real wisdom. Now it is yours."
Then, Ravenclaw took out the tower model that Allen had seen before, "The function of this mobile tower is similar to that of the mansion spell invented by an ancient wizard called Mordenkain. Some of the functions of the rooms are for you. It is very useful. This model is actually similar to an independent door key that can be easily carried with you. The actual location of the tower can not be reached by physical means, which can ensure that you have a safe shelter.
The most important thing is that it contains a large number of books that I have collected throughout my life, and the collections in it have been supplemented and updated through the library that I stayed in the Ravenclaw common room for so many years, as professors and students Put a new manuscript in, and a corresponding copy will appear on the library shelf in the tower.
Although it is not suitable for you to invest in study and research immediately, because my personal collection of magic and secret art knowledge is too obscure and dangerous for you, and the books collected through my common room library are uneven, There are even many knowledge theories that have been proven wrong by later generations, so it is impossible to distinguish and screen without a certain foundation, but if you can read and study carefully in a few years, this knowledge will build you to the top of the magician. Ladder~EbookFREE.me~ This is the most valuable treasure I leave to you. "
Allen can’t help but wonder. Like the previous trials, although it sounds like tasks that are almost impossible to complete, in fact, what he has in his hand is just enough for him to complete it as if it were written. It is a bit like Dumbledore this year. With the growth challenge arranged for Harry, Allen felt like he was being manipulated by the opponent.
But when Rowena Ravenclaw finished speaking, her face was relieved, her figure gradually faded, as if it was going to disappear at any time.
"Ellen, you can also take the Sorcerer's Stone. After all, it is useless to me now, but it is precious to you. As a soul fragment, I will pursue my soul body and make her complete again. After I leave, this statue will no longer play a role as a test, loses the support of magic power, its internal space will disappear as I leave. Finally, let us meet again on the journey of life, please help me Taking care of Helena, this is also your responsibility for inheriting my treasure."
Allen took the treasure, bowed deeply, and paid tribute to the strong man. Although he didn't know how to take care of a ghost, and he had the Philosopher's Stone-although it was too early for him, he could already have He who made the foundation of the elixir will not die due to aging. Obviously, as long as he does not die by accident, there is still a long time before he meets Ravenclaw again.
When he raised his head, the light under his feet suddenly flickered, and the strong light made Alan quickly block his eyes and the feeling of being hooked on his stomach came again. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was already in the Ravenclaw common room. The lounge was empty, but from the sky outside the window and the noise from the Quidditch stadium, it seemed that it was different from Allen's perception, and the time did not actually pass.
