Xenophilus Lovegood leaned forward and said cheerfully, "Now that we have the sorcerer's stone, does that mean we don't have to work anymore? Luna, I'll wait for you to go look for the Curved-Horned Snoring Beast with daddy during the holidays, right? "
"We can't make too much gold because it will cause inflation. That means if we change it into gold coins, when the currency is in circulation, the value of the gold coins is greater than the actual demand of the magic world, and the purchasing power is greater than what we can actually produce. This will easily lead to the depreciation of gold coins, which will lead to a sustained and widespread rise in prices for a period of time, which will lead to the collapse of the already fragile and unreasonable economic system of the wizarding world. So we can't use the sorcerer's stone to make money endlessly, so we have to rely on industries like the umbrella to make money." Hermione sat up straight and explained solemnly.
Apart from Hermione and the other purebloods, everyone present was stunned. Even Muggle, who was an expert in science, did not understand what Hermione was talking about.
Allen, on the other hand, understood. But he just coughed and did not dare to look at Hermione who defended him. "The ability of the sorcerer's stone to turn gold is just one of its minor functions in alchemy. Its biggest function is to make the elixir of immortality. Although the elixir can prevent people from dying of old age, it can't keep you young forever. People will still age slowly with the passage of time — at least a part of you will, especially your bones. Even if you take good care of yourself for hundreds of years, your bones will probably break when you shake someone's hand … So, in history, basically living up to six hundred years old is the limit. After that, due to the decline in quality of life, you will have the idea that 'death is actually like going to bed after a long day'."
Thinking about the experiment on Hagrid's mother, Fridvafa, Allen spread his hands helplessly. "Looking at the elixir of immortality made from the sorcerer's stone, there is no solution yet."
"Is there any other way?" Hermione sensed the hidden meaning in Allen's words. Recalling the story that Allen had told her before, she asked with some surprise and uncertainty, "In the story of Demstrand's Captain Cosby, the pirate named Cotton Jack once found the Fountain of Youth hidden in the Bimini Islands. Did you find it?"
Allen quickly waved his hand. "Uh … No, Hermione. Also, out of courtesy and his personal wishes, it's best to add 'Captain' behind his name …"
"Netherese Scroll, Eolum's Longevity Technique." Luna's voice sounded again. Everyone turned to look at Luna, waiting for her to explain further. However, Luna just looked back at them and didn't say anything.
"During the Netherese period, there was a wizard named Eolum. As one of the greatest human arcanists, Eolum was the main propagator of the Netherese magic. There were more than 3,000 arcanists under his tutelage. More importantly, if it wasn't for this person's grand appearance in the history of ancient magic, the Core of Mysera that could make the city of Netherese fly into the sky would no longer exist. Yes, he was the wizard who invented and made the Core of Mysera. He also invented a longevity technique named after him. After casting it successfully, it can extend the spellcaster's current age. Every time you kill a living creature, it can extend your lifespan by almost a year. You can even choose to consume more life force to rejuvenate your own age to the previous stage. "Allen finished speaking and took a sip of tea, looking at the others' reactions with great interest.
Some of the members in the seats looked a little troubled. Daisy, who did not notice the meaning, was still happy that she could be rejuvenated. At this time, she sensed the strangeness of the people around her and realized that something was not right. Her lips were pressed tightly together.
Allen stole a glance at Hermione, only to find that the smart know-it-all lady had obviously noticed the key words in his words and did not fall for it. Disappointed, she introduced, "You've misunderstood. Eolum's Longevity Technique absorbs the life force of 'living creatures' so it doesn't have to be human. Although this spell in the records is based on killing humanoid creatures, we can use the life force of non-intelligent creatures as the target of the spell. Even if the effect is not as good, I'll cast it for you a few more times. Also, if there's no psychological pressure, Lunn, try to keep the death row prisoners for us. Not only the death row prisoners in the magic world, we can also use the death row prisoners in Muggle. At least, we can make their deaths worthwhile … "
"It's not difficult to find living creatures. Josephine, your department can pay more attention when you take action. Hermione, you can ask the umbrella to allocate a sum of money as a special fund. "Owen's body relaxed as he ordered.
Emily's hand that was fiddling with the tablecloth paused for a moment. She also imitated Albert and deliberately heaved a long sigh. In fact, it did not matter to her. Whether it was humans, humanoid creatures, or living creatures, as long as it could improve her strength, she could use them.
Lunn noticed the key point in it. "Allen, why don't you use Eolum's Longevity Technique directly? Why do you want us to take the elixir of immortality instead?"
Allen was very satisfied with his second brother's acuity in this aspect. "Unlike the effect produced by the potion, the effect of Eolum's Longevity Technique is maintained by magic, although the time limit is' permanent '."
Most of the wizards on the scene showed a look of understanding. Daisy nudged her sister who was sitting next to her and nodding just now. Then, Emily helplessly explained to her sister, "Although this kind of magic doesn't have to worry about the time limit after it's successfully cast, there's a big problem. A targeted anti-curse or even a universal anti-curse like the End of All Curses will cause the magic to lose its effectiveness."
"Emily, you're much better at magic spells than Daisy. You're right. Once Eolum's Longevity Technique is dispelled by the anti-curse, the magic effect of maintaining one's youth will no longer exist. Therefore, the time of escape will be instantly traced back to the victim. In fact, many of the great arcanists of Netheril would rather turn themselves into undead creatures than use this spell because too many users have died in accidents." Allen applauded his sister and explained. He then added, "So, whether it's the Philosopher's Stone or the Eolum's Longevity Technique, both have their own shortcomings. But if we use them together, we can make up for each other's shortcomings. Using Eolum's Longevity Technique to maintain one's youth, long-term consumption of the elixir of immortality will prevent us from dying of old age. In this way, even if there's an accident, the spell on our body will be removed, and we won't die of old age immediately.
"There's another reason to take the elixir of immortality first." Luna's voice sounded again. "Allen hasn't learned this spell yet. It'll take him a long time to finish reading them. His progress is very slow."
"Ahem … That's because I still have to focus on other things. The Department of Mysteries, the Hogwarts, and the Mise nucleus that you want me to study …" Allen retorted and coughed dryly. "Based on our age, this spell isn't the most important thing at the moment. The elixir of immortality is enough for now."
The fact that Allen could make the Philosopher's Stone was enough to shock Hibiscus Chinensis, Xenophilus, and the others who knew about it for the first time. Not to mention, there was also the Eternal Youth spell that could complement the Philosopher's Stone. For a moment, these seemingly fantastical blessings made Hibiscus Chinensis feel a little unreal.
"We can make the elixir of immortality with the Philosopher's Stone. Everyone can share it with their loved ones so that they can avoid death and escape from the Grim Reaper." Seeing their situation, Allen thought more for them. "Don't worry. Just like how Nick Lemour could easily make enough elixirs of immortality before he destroyed the Philosopher's Stone to give him enough time to deal with his funeral, making this elixir isn't too troublesome. You can make a lot of it in one go. The only troublesome thing is making the Philosopher's Stone itself."
Upon hearing this, Hibiscus Chinensis was overjoyed. Her delicate face became redder. If it weren't for this occasion, she would have rushed up to Allen and hugged him. Hibiscus Chinensis's grandmother and maternal grandmother were not young, even for a charming girl. And Hibiscus Chinensis's sister, Gabrielle Delacourt, was one of the most important people in her life. If they could also take the elixir of immortality, it would be wonderful.
In the midst of her excitement, Hibiscus suddenly caught a glimpse of Mrs. Morgenfeleyi Harris's uneasy expression. Her mind raced. She guessed that the other party was probably worried about the hidden danger caused by Allen distributing the elixir of immortality made from the Sorcerer's Stone to too many people. In addition, she recalled that she had just questioned Allen because of her outspoken nature. She quickly opened her mouth and said in a fawning manner, "Anyone who has not joined the family and wants to take the elixir of immortality must make an unbreakable oath."
But Hermione began to worry. She realized that her parents, Penello's parents, were Muggle. They might not be able to make an unbreakable oath. But after a moment, she thought of a solution. "Those who can't make an unbreakable oath can sign a devil's contract with Allen."
"Don't bother." Allen pressed his hands in the air. "When the time is right, I will announce that I have made the Philosopher's Stone. Also, you can contact Aunt Josephine and find time to test your suitable magic Animagus. Hurry up and choose the Animagus you want to transform into. You are too slow in this regard. "
"Allen, we still have a phoenix that we haven't tamed. You can find time to read books about phoenixes and tame it when you have time. See if the blood of this phoenix can be used." Owen remembered that there was still a phoenix that had not been tamed, so he reminded Allen. "And I will discuss this matter with Lunn and see if I can help you to relate it to the matter of faith."
Allen rubbed his temples. There were too many things that he needed to analyze, study, and deal with. These complicated matters were giving him a headache.
Hermione noticed Allen's movements and recalled that when she used the time converter, she also had a hard time. The things that Allen needed to do now were far more complicated and more responsible than she was back then. It was just that Allen had never shown it. Everyone was used to him being able to solve anything and did not realize the heavy burden on his shoulders. Hermione took the initiative to say, "Allen, I'll look for these books about phoenixes. In the end, I'll summarize them. You can read them."
