Chapter 647 Menis: Guess Why I Don’t Use the Magic Stone?

Dumbledore quickly completed the suspension procedures for Tom and Hermione. It was said to be a suspension of study procedure. In fact, Dumbledore wrote a letter as the principal, telling the professors that Tom and Hermione could temporarily suspend school for a while.

Hogwarts does not have the same rules and regulations as the non-magical world, and all kinds of things can be done much more efficiently. In the non-magical world, it might take countless trips to various offices to get things done, but here all it takes is a letter from Dumbledore.

After leaving the office, Hermione pulled Tom with excitement on her face and said to him: "Why didn't I think that we could go find Menis!"

But she was a little confused because she didn't know whether Menes, who was a pharaoh and comparable to a god, was willing to help them. Even if He throws the two of them out of the secret realm, there is nothing to say, because He has no obligations! Tom and Hermione couldn't help him much, they could only chat with him. Correspondingly, Tom also received generous rewards from Menis.

Just because someone is easy to talk to, don't take the other person's help for granted!

Listening to Hermione's words, Tom rolled his eyes again: "I also know some people in the wizarding world!"

He nodded Hermione's little head with some hatred: "You should tell me as soon as possible! It's not an incurable terminal disease!"

Listening to Tom's words, Hermione pouted, but didn't know how to refute. She could only tilt her head slightly to avoid Tom's fingers.

"Even if it is a terminal illness, you should tell me that we can handle it together," Tom said sincerely: "I can share the joys and sorrows with you - husband and wife are birds in the same forest. When disaster strikes, we can fly separately. I I don’t want it to happen to either of us.”

As soon as the word "husband and wife" came out of her mouth, Hermione's face felt slightly hot and her whole body felt hot.

"I, we are not a couple..." she murmured.

"Then what are we~" Tom dabbed at Hermione's red little face, "Who cares about acquaintances?"

"We'll talk about the future later," Hermione's face turned redder when she saw Tom approaching, and she hurriedly ran towards the lounge, "I have to pack my luggage now, and I need to take sun protection measures if I go to Egypt... "

When the words fell, the person had disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Hermione really wasn't making excuses. She had indeed changed her outfit for the trip to Egypt.

When Hermione appeared in front of Tom, she had already taken off her thick wizard robe and put on a long linen skirt, wearing a white rattan hat, and her round waist was tied with a thick leather belt. Tight, she put on a pair of white pointed-toe high heels.

"Are you going for medical treatment or on vacation..." Tom looked at the lazy-looking Hermione in front of him, and he felt as if the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was.

"Both, let's go." Hermione smiled brightly at Tom and handed a linen robe to Tom.

"I picked it for you."

Tom had no reason to refuse the robe his girlfriend handed him. So soon the colors of the two were unified.

Looking at her boyfriend who was wearing a couple's outfit, Hermione nodded with satisfaction, and then the two set off together.

Once you are born, you will be familiar with it twice, and you will be familiar with it three times and four times. Soon, Tom and Hermione met Menes. As expected, He lay down and rested in his palace.

"Oh! Are you here? Sit down and eat some honey-pickled olives?" Menis was very happy to have outsiders come in - at least he could listen to stories.

But when his eyes swept across Hermione's face, he suddenly discovered a problem. In his opinion, this young girl actually had a faint air of death on her face.

"I guess you came to me for help?" He put the picked olives back into the jar.

"Yes, do you know how to make the magic stone? Or, can you look at this?" Tom handed over the remains of the magic stone, and he added: "Of course, it would be better if you knew other ways to treat her. …”

Menis just glanced at it and threw the small leather bag back.

"You have found a reliable method," He chuckled, "Of course I can do the Philosopher's Stone - you can do it too."

Tom:? !

How come I didn't know I could do it?

Hermione also looked at Tom in surprise. She was still very aware of Tom's abilities. He had absolutely no ability to refine the Philosopher's Stone. If he really had this level of alchemy, how could the two of them come here?

"I remember I gave you a piece of emerald stone, right? Just use that. You can mix this fragment with my blood beads and you can refine the rough base of the Philosopher's Stone."

Menes waved his hand.

But Tom didn't look happy. He heard the word "rough" clearly.

"The rough part of the Philosopher's Stone refers to...?" He had some bad premonitions in his heart.

Menis did not answer Tom's question immediately. He asked instead: "Guess why I don't use the Sorcerer's Stone to extend my life? I can also refine that thing."

Tom was silent.

In terms of alchemy technology, the man in front of me is probably the strongest alchemist in history, but why didn't he successfully refine the Philosopher's Stone?

There must be some external condition that limits Menis' performance.

Tom frowned, knowing the answer in his heart. If that's really the reason, that's too bad...

He glanced at Hermione and found that the girl also looked thoughtful.

"Not enough people?" Hermione asked tentatively before Tom spoke.

"That's right." Menis showed a look of appreciation in his eyes.

"The essence of alchemy is exchange of equal value. Items that replenish life naturally have to be exchanged for life and flesh and blood." He said the shocking words softly.

Tom and Hermione suddenly turned pale. They realized one thing at once: the Philosopher's Stone, which Menes, as a pharaoh, could not afford, naturally required more vitality than one or two people could provide.

You know, ancient Egypt was a slave country! Even if a magic stone costs ten thousand sacrifices, Menis will not blink an eye.

The number of lives required for the Philosopher's Stone must be unimaginable, so much that it would not be enough to fill in all the lives of ancient Egypt and surrounding countries.

"After I heard that a junior successfully refined the magic stone, I was really curious about how he did it." Menis couldn't help but feel inexplicably happy when he saw the two little guys being completely frightened.

"I thought he had made some technological improvements...but no, I looked at the bag of residue and it was still the old formula, tsk tsk tsk!" A look of reluctance flashed across Menis's face. In his opinion, for the sake of It is too selfish and cruel to consume such a huge amount of life for a period of time.
