"I choose Anna." Allen did not hesitate at all. Wealth could be obtained through hard work, but Anna was unparalleled. To be friends with Anna, it was not a pity to lose everything in the world.
The light screen cage was instantly removed from Anna's body. Anna's eyes were sparkling and filled with joy. Although she knew that Allen would definitely choose her, hearing Allen's determined voice with her own ears, the joy was indescribable. It was like a spring breeze brushing past her heart, causing thousands of flowers to bloom in an instant.
"Game over." The cold voice sounded once again.
In an instant, Allen felt as if his stomach was hooked by a hook. In the blink of an eye, he was in a place that looked like an office.
The reason why it looked like an office was because the interior decoration was extremely luxurious. Everything was gold, even a piece of paper was "covered" in gold.
Indulging in a life of luxury was often used to describe people falling into depravity. However, this "House of Gold" was endearing but not addictive. Every detail was handled like a gentleman's reservedness, like a lady's elegance, without a trace of tackiness. For example, the desks, chairs, curtains, cushions … Big and small, every piece was refined in the vulgar, vulgar yet elegant.
Allen did not panic because Anna was not by his side. He believed that since he had chosen Anna, she must have safely left this place.
"Congratulations, you have overcome the greed in your heart." An extremely dignified voice sounded behind Allen. Allen immediately turned around, his eyes filled with amazement. A very beautiful figure appeared behind Allen. This kind of beauty was so beautiful that it made people look up to her, not daring to have the slightest blasphemy. It was even somewhat intimidating.
Allen recognized at a glance that it was Loina Ravenclaw because she was very similar to the statue in the common room of Ravenclaw. However, compared to the statue, she was more dignified and lively.
"You Ravenclaw are actually not greedy at all!" Loina walked to the back of the office desk and sat down gracefully. Allen understood what she meant. Ravenclaw literally meant "raven's claw" or "raven's claw". The hidden meaning of the name was "greedy plunderer".
"You should know Ravenclaw's standards for choosing students, don't you, Madam? Their intelligence must be superior to others. It is best if they are wise, just, astute, erudite, intelligent, farsighted, curious, and enjoy studying things. "Allen bowed deeply to Royna Ravenclaw. Whether it was the founder of the academy or a powerhouse, Loina was worthy of Allen's respect.
"I prefer you to call me Professor or — Dean," Royna Ravenclaw emphasized.
"Yes, Professor." In Allen's mind, Professor Fleevy was the dean of Ravenclaw. Even though Royna Ravenclaw was the founder, she could only be called a former dean at most. Therefore, Allen settled for the next best thing and could only call her Professor.
"Since you have already made it here, as long as you complete the last test, you will be able to obtain Ravenclaw's treasure." Royna scrutinized Allen seriously, as if she was guessing if he could pass the last test.
"May I ask what the last test is?" Allen was confident in himself.
"The last test is to create a Philosopher's Stone that can turn stone into gold and achieve immortality." Allen heard a hint of urgency in the cold female voice.
"Philosopher's Stone? Please forgive me. Why do you still want to create a Philosopher's Stone in your current state? "Allen was genuinely curious.
"Are you saying that I am clearly a remnant of consciousness, but I still want a Philosopher's Stone that can grant immortality?" Royna Ravenclaw's voice was somewhat melancholy.
"Back then, my daughter Helena stole my crown. I sent Barrow to find her, but I didn't expect Barrow to kill her! Back then, I wanted to create a Resurrection Stone. But after some research, I discovered that the Resurrection Stone can't really revive the dead. It can only summon a substance that is more real than a soul and more illusory than a physical body. Furthermore, the revived person might not necessarily be happy. In that case, the Resurrection Stone would be meaningless to Helena. This child actually turned into a spirit because she was afraid of death. I wanted to accompany my daughter in a longer way, but I didn't want to become a spirit. Therefore, I thought of the Philosopher's Stone. "Royna didn't mind telling Allen the whole story.
"But you don't need the Philosopher's Stone now?" Allen was still very puzzled.
"That's right. But I still couldn't accept that I didn't completely research the Philosopher's Stone. Therefore, I left behind this remnant of consciousness with my soul imprint and designed this magic statue. When I was seriously ill and about to reach the end of my life, I injected all my magic into it so as to protect this remnant of consciousness with my soul imprint to the greatest extent. "Royna told Allen the whole story.
He saw that Royna Ravenclaw's attainments in soul magic were not inferior to her achievements in alchemy. Allen remembered that Lord Voldemort's remnant soul also had the ability to think for itself and communicate with others. Royna Ravenclaw only left behind a remnant of consciousness with a soul imprint to achieve the same effect. It could be seen that Royna was still more brilliant.
"Alright, young man. Are you willing to accept the challenge? If you can successfully develop it according to my notes, you can take away all my wealth. If you can't, I'll erase your memories and let you go. "Royna's aura was very powerful, but Allen wasn't afraid at all.
"I can accept the challenge, but I don't have the materials." Allen spread out his hands, indicating that he couldn't cook without rice.
Royna rotated a magic ball on the table three times in a counterclockwise direction. The wall on the right disappeared, and a huge alchemy room appeared in front of Allen. Royna handed a thick roll of parchment to Allen and disappeared without a trace.
Allen quickly flipped through the precious manuscript. The handwriting on it was neat and beautiful, and there was also a blueprint drawn by Royna herself.
The materials needed for the Philosopher's Stone such as "Arikos, Carmoto, Mercury, Sulfur, Aqua Regia" were all prepared. The alchemy method was also marked on the parchment. Why couldn't Royna's refinement succeed? As he read, Allen had an idea. He pulled out a copy of Jie Bai's notes from the system. The creation of one of the alchemy products, the "Philosopher's Stone", was very similar to the Philosopher's Stone that Royna Ravenclaw had researched. Apart from some differences in names, it could be seen that the effects of the Philosopher's Stone were basically the same as the Philosopher's Stone. Comparing the two, the biggest difference was the furnace fire. The furnace fire temperature recorded in Jie Bai's notes was much higher than that recorded by Royna.
