Hogwarts Collector, I cast a spell with the Eye of God - Chapter 88
After leaving the station, Ye Ting went back home, took the Knight Bus directly to the airport, and then took a plane directly to Paris.
After getting off the plane at the Paris airport, Ye Ting went through many twists and turns and finally arrived at the designated location mentioned by Nico in the invitation letter.
This street looks ordinary, and the buildings on both sides are unremarkable. He did not find any suspicious houses, and Nico could not live here.
But soon, a house-elf appeared in front of him.
To be honest, when he first saw this elf, Ye Ting subconsciously thought that this was a goblin capitalist from somewhere.
He was wearing a sophisticated black suit, a neat scarf tucked into his collar, white gloves on his hands, and holding a shiny black cane. He looked polite, which was completely different from the house-elves Ye Ting had seen before.
“Mr. Nico’s butler, Hyperite, is at your service, sir!” The elf bowed slightly, raised his cane elegantly, and saluted Ye Ting.
This scene made Ye Ting’s eyes widen, and he exclaimed,”Wow.”
The style of this elf, as well as the pocket watch and silver buttons on his suit, are even more Malfoy than Malfoy!
This doesn’t look like a house elf that Ye Ting has ever seen.
When helping the unicorns with the”Four-Way Peace”, Ye Ting had gone to the kitchen of Hogwarts to borrow materials and kitchen utensils, where he saw the elves of Hogwarts.
Although their living conditions are considered good in the British wizarding world, they are only slightly cleaner, which is a world of difference compared to the elf in front of him.
How can they be so luxurious and particular?
“Hello, Mr. Butler, I am Ye Ting.”Ye Ting walked forward and shook hands with Hepperlit,”It seems that you are here to pick me up, right? How should we find Mr. Nico?”
“Oh, of course, Hyperite will lead Mr. Ye Ting to find his master.”
The elf butler bowed gracefully again,”But before that, I need to confirm Mr. Ye Ting’s identity.”
“Identity… It’s Nico’s letter, here it is.”Ye Ting waved his hand casually, golden ripples appeared out of thin air, and a piece of parchment fell lightly into his hand.
Ye Ting took out Nicolas Flamel’s letter and handed it to Hyperion.
Seeing this scene, the elf butler’s eyes widened slightly, obviously shocked by Ye Ting’s move.
He had never seen such an operation before, and it looked quite extraordinary.
He thought to himself that the person who could be personally invited by the master was indeed not an ordinary person. Even if he was just a little wizard, he had his own uniqueness.
After carefully confirming the unique mark left by the master on the letter, Hyperion returned the letter to Ye Ting respectfully.
“”I’m sorry to waste your time, Mr. Ye. Now, please follow me to the car.”
As he said this, he tapped the ground lightly with his cane.
Until this moment, Ye Ting was shocked to find that the cane of this house-elf was actually a real magic wand!
You know, the Ministry of Magic of various countries has expressly prohibited house-elves from possessing magic wands.
But on second thought, this is no big deal. After all, that’s Nicolas Flamel. Who in France can control his business?
Under the effect of magic, a huge monster suddenly drilled out of the ground-it was a Citroen DS19.
To be honest, this model has a history of more than 40 years and now looks like an antique.
But this car once had its glory. It was once The French general car, and even served as Charles de Gaulle’s car.
In general, it is indeed worthy of Nicolas Flamel’s status.
However, this master of alchemy would actually use a car modified by magic to welcome guests. This unorthodox behavior is in line with his personality.
No wonder he praised Ye Ting’s clockwork technology.
It seems that he has also studied related technologies.
Next, Hyperite skillfully opened the door for Ye Ting and helped him sit in the back seat.
The black and red flannel lining in the car is luxurious. When Ye Ting got into the car, he even had an illusion that he was going to attend a coronation ceremony.
Then, the elf butler got into the driver’s seat.
“”Well, Mr. Ye Ting, please sit tight,” he said with a smile,”We are about to set off!”
As Hepperet stepped on the accelerator, the Citroen DS19 seemed to be injected with new life, and rushed out at a speed that was completely inconsistent with its identity as a classic car, and the surrounding scenery kept changing rapidly. There were cars coming and going on the road. Logically, the Citroen DS19 would have a car accident after running like this for a while, but this Citroen DS19 blessed by magic shuttled freely in the traffic, like a nimble fish.
It weirdly drilled in and out of the gaps between the cars, regardless of whether the gaps were wide or narrow, and never made any contact with the cars next to it. What’s even more amazing is that the width of this car can change adaptively!
When there is almost no gap between the two cars in front, it can even automatically shrink to the thinness of paper, while the internal structure remains unchanged.
It can be said that the [Space Extension Spell] inside this car is very advanced.
During the entire driving process, the surrounding cars and pedestrians seemed to ignore them, as if they were in another dimension.
This technology is almost the same as the British Knight Bus.
This technology is similar to the British Knight Bus, but in comparison, the Citroen DS19 is more stable and comfortable.
There is almost no bump or discomfort, even Linnet, who is prone to motion sickness, is no exception.
This made Ye Ting’s performance score of this alchemical product much higher.
When Ye Ting asked about the Knight Bus, the elf butler revealed that the technology of the Knight Bus was actually provided by his master.
He looked at the ever-changing Paris street scenes outside the window all the way, and saw the Eiffel Tower from the Louvre, and his mood was particularly comfortable.
However, at this moment, the surroundings suddenly darkened, and the scenery changed drastically in an instant.
The street scene disappeared, replaced by the vast blue sky and white clouds.
Ye Ting looked down and saw a series of mountain ranges covered with trees, and in the center of the mountains was a magnificent manor.
“Did we just use [Apparition]】？”Ye Ting asked curiously
“Yes, sir.”Hyperite responded calmly.
“In theory, we can get here in just a few seconds, right?”Ye Ting continued to ask.
So, since the car has this function, why do we have to go around Paris and then [Apparate]?
Hepperet was silent for a while, then slowly said:”Although it is technically feasible, I think that method lacks the necessary sense of ceremony and seems disrespectful to the guests.”
Ye Ting was stunned for a moment. This sense of ceremony was too strange.
Anyway, he couldn’t figure out why they had to go around in a circle like this.
Could it be that this was to take the guests to appreciate the scenery of Paris?
However, he quickly put this question behind him because his eyes were firmly attracted by the manor below.
A marble obelisk more than 100 meters high stood there, marking the center of this huge manor. The carefully designed geometric streets and staggered buildings are all centered on this spire and extend out in all directions.
Only by looking down from the air can you truly appreciate the aesthetic essence of this manor.
At the same time , Ye Ting suddenly found that the magic power in his body seemed to be blocked by some force. If he could not sense the magic power in his divine eyes, he almost thought that he had become an ordinary Muggle.
As the Citroen DS19 continued to descend and gradually approached the core building (aiai), he felt the magic power flowing in his body again.
The periphery of the manor is filled with various ancient and powerful defensive magics, enough to resist any wizard’s prying.
Nico, an old wizard who has lived for more than 600 years, is probably more cautious and careful in security than anyone else.
Finally, the car landed at the gate of the manor, and Hyperite took Ye Ting out of the car.
“This manor carries the glory and history of the owner.”
Hepperet introduced affectionately,”It was first given to the owner by His Majesty Charles V himself to express gratitude for the owner’s firm support for France in the Hundred Years’ War.”
As he said, he pushed open the ancient gate of the manor,”Mr. Ye, please follow me.”
The two walked through the winding path paved with bluestone and came to a Gothic cottage full of historical charm.
This two-story cottage is probably the smallest house in this manor.
Ye Ting never thought that Nico would choose to live here
“Come in, Mr. Ye.”Herperite smiled and pushed open the door, making an elegant invitation gesture.
Ye Ting stepped into the house and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him. Unlike the simple exterior, the house was a completely different world.
The spacious and luxurious hall, with walls and floors made of exquisite marble, looked extraordinary. Every piece of furniture was a carefully selected antique, priceless.
In a corner of the hall, the orange-red flame in the fireplace jumped, providing warmth for the old man on the sofa next to it.
At this time, a leisurely high note echoed in the small house: (To read the violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
“Ah, so many jewels, they dazzle me, am I dreaming or awake?”
“I look at myself in the mirror with a smile, and see how beautiful I am!”
“Ah, is this you, Margaret?”
Ye Ting understands French, he can tell that this is a clip from the French opera”Faust”, the old man has quite elegant taste.
At this moment, a gray head popped out from the sofa, the voice was a little trembling, breathless, it sounded really strenuous.”Ah… Albus, I… I’m still wondering when you will visit.”
Maybe people will be like this when they get old.
Nicolas Flamel’s mumbling continued:”Hyperite… help me, treat Albus well… at our age, it’s true that the less we see each other, the less we see each other.”
As he spoke, he tried to struggle to stand up, but the slightly raised head finally drooped down weakly. For an old man who has experienced more than six hundred years, the difficulty of getting up is still too high.
“Mr. Flamel, please stop struggling and just lie down.”Ye Ting couldn’t bear to see the legendary alchemist struggling so hard.
There were only two wizards in the room, and the butler Hyperion was still the other wizard’s man. Who would be responsible if there were any bumps?
He came here to exchange ideas about alchemy, not to be scammed.
Ah, I… I seemed to hear a strange voice, Albus, did you bring a friend here?”
Hyperion bowed respectfully, almost breaking himself in half. Ye Ting even felt that if possible, this elf would want to crawl directly into the cracks in the ground.
“”I’m very sorry, Mr. Flamel.” Hepperet whispered in Nicolas Flamel’s ear,”Have you forgotten? You didn’t invite Professor Dumbledore. The one who was invited today is Mr. Ye Ting.”
“What?!”
Nicolas Flamel’s voice suddenly rose several degrees,”What did you just say, Hyperion?”
“”I mean,”
Hyperion also raised his voice, but still maintained his elegance,”Professor Dumbledore is not here today. Your guest today is Mr. Ye Ting.”
But Ye Ting seemed to be able to sense a hint of… helplessness in the elf’s tone?
“Ye Ting? The young genius who created the clockwork beetle?” Nicolas Flamel’s eyes flashed with a gleam, as if he recalled something,”Oh, yes, it’s him!”
“It is him, Mr. Flamel.”
Hepperet bowed slightly,”You praised him before and invited him to your home.”
“Ah, he’s here? Mr. Ye Ting is really here?”
Nicolas Flamel was so excited that he jumped up from the sofa.
However, a crisp”kaba” sound was heard immediately, accompanied by the old man’s shrill wail:
“Ouch! Hepperet, come on, help me, my old waist is sprained again. This damn potion, drinking too much will really make people osteoporotic!”
Nicolas Flamel’s swallowing problem seemed to have completely disappeared at this moment. He pinched his waist with both hands and fell back on the sofa with a painful look on his face.
“Oh my god, it hurts so much……”
Nicolael wailed, and Hyperion disappeared instantly.
When he reappeared, he was holding an exquisite tray with a small bottle on it. In the bottle, golden liquid flowed slowly, shining with an attractive luster.
“Mr. Flamel, do you need help?”Ye Ting couldn’t help but ask.
Nicolas Flamel raised his hand and signaled Ye Ting to be patient.
“Wait, don’t make a sound.”He said hoarsely, his Adam’s apple rolled up and down, and he drank the small bottle of golden liquid.
Then, Ye Ting witnessed a shocking scene. The face of the old man in front of him changed dramatically, his wrinkles were smoothed, his age spots gradually disappeared, and his originally hunched body became much more upright. The pair of originally turbid eyes also regained clarity at this moment.
In a short while, Nicolas Flamel looked like a man over a hundred years old to… a man in his seventies or eighties?
Today is the fourth update, which is a supplement for yesterday. I ask for flowers, monthly tickets, and comments.
