"I thought you wouldn't agree to such a request."
Dumbledore looked at Luke with a strange expression.Luke looked at his face, shook his head silently and said, "I don't seem to have any reason not to agree."
"Speaking of which, I don't mind him naming this new type of magic sword with his surname. In other words, this is his own right. I have no need to deprive him of this right."
"As for the matter of not being my vassal...although it is a pity, and it also violates the rules left by the ancestors, but it is very human. I would rather be happy than bitter and bitter."
Gibson's demonstrated worth is enough for Luke to give him considerable favors.What's more, Gibson also promised that he would not use the method he taught to make weapons for people or forces that were hostile to Luke.
Luke tested Dumbledore's bottom line again, but Dumbledore looked at the sword with a complicated expression, so he didn't stop it.The current Gibson is fundamentally different from the stupid blacksmith who kept fighting against the wishful thinking handed down from his ancestors.
After the sword is actually forged, it means that his identity and status have been improved in an absolute sense.
It's better to be friends with such a person.
and……
"One person wants to defeat a group of people, and there is a simplified thinking of Muggles, it is simply impossible."
The corner of Luke's mouth curled into a subtle arc, with a smile on his face, thinking silently in his heart.
If it is said that quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes, then the sword Gibson created today can be said to have completed the process of quantitative changes to qualitative changes.
What Luke used to camouflage the Sorcerer's Stone powder was the powder ground from the highest quality magic stone.The price of this kind of thing itself is ridiculously high, and the magic power contained in it also has a considerable amount.
Luke believes that, except for some special effects, his fake Sorcerer's Stone powder and the real Sorcerer's Stone powder should be almost the same in terms of magic power content.
And Luke doesn't need such a powerful sword at all.
He doesn't need, and he can't let everyone have the ability to break through the defenses that Dumbledore has laid at will, and he won't let everyone be able to easily cut off the solid magic armor.
What he needs is a sword that can break through the magical shield of ordinary wizards.
that's enough……
Moreover, is there any other way to apply the ability to release magic like this?
What Luke wanted was not the sword in the first place, nor the technology to make it.It is a less powerful and cheaper technology that emerged from the sword that was built.
These are the things with the greatest value.It's a good technique to create a sword comparable to the Deathly Hallows from a whole Sorcerer's Stone.But if this technique can be simplified to allow young wizards to have a chance to break through the defenses of adult wizards and stab them to death with swords.Isn't the value higher?
At least Luke thinks so.
What's more, he is sure to hold Gibson completely in his own hands.
People, as long as you ask for it.
Dumbledore looked at Luke's excited and expectant expression, as if thinking of something, he shook his head helplessly.
Luke has not shown any cruel means so far.So he can still bear it.Even Luke is eager to change the world as well.
Of course the world can be changed, as long as the means are not extreme.
"Now that it's packed, let's go see Nico."
Dumbledore said lightly to Luke.
When Luke heard this, his face straightened instantly, and now he felt that Nicole Flamel was an important person.
"Okay, Professor, I've been looking forward to this day for a long time."
More importantly, after meeting LeMay, they can leave this ghost place of France.Here, Luke has really had enough.His influence has not spread here.Except for Dumbledore, who can't be completely trusted by his side, Luke only has his identity as "the heir of the Gaunt family" that can be used as a talisman.
However, I am closely related to the "real monk meat" of the Philosopher's Stone.After he came out swaggeringly from Nicole Flamel's residence, the hyena who was swayed by the wind was not as simple as it is today.
Luke didn't understand the intricacies here, and the forces entrenched in each of them, and it could even be said that his eyes were smeared.So Luke will never do anything big here rashly.
It's hard to tell when your shoes will get wet when you're doing trouble in places you're not familiar with.
Luke felt that it was better for him to wait until the British territory was almost developed before plotting against France.

Dumbledore nodded, grabbed Luke's shoulder with his left hand, and pulled out his wand with his right hand and waved it lightly.
In the next instant, a faint golden flame surged from the soles of the feet amidst the crimson red.
Luke panicked at first, but soon calmed down, frowning and looking in Dumbledore's direction.
Dumbledore said with a mysterious smile on his face, "Want to learn?"
Luke's expression changed slightly, but he didn't really think that this thing can be learned, but he just wanted to pick up the stalk.
"Then you teach me?"
Luke's face was sincere, but for some reason, Dumbledore felt a hint of teasing inexplicably.
But after all, he didn't pay too much attention to such details, but said with regret, "Unfortunately, if your surname is Dumbledore, maybe I can help you."
Luke didn't seem to have any pity on his face, but nodded calmly.
He had guessed early on that Dumbledore's special fire magic was obviously derived from blood, and it could be said to be a kind of innate magic.It's just another path of development.
This also inspired Luke to a certain extent.
But before Luke's thoughts diverged, he saw the flames spreading in front of his eyes and interrupted his thoughts.
When Luke's eyes became clear again, the scene in front of him had changed drastically.The Boulevard de Garnillon was dark and lonely.At least the location where Gibson's blacksmith shop is located is not crowded.Apart from the sound of blacksmithing, the only sound heard most often is the chirping of mice.
But now, what he sees is a lush, vibrant green.And in this piece of vibrant green, Luke easily saw a small courtyard that was not very big, but leaned against the lake, looked at the forest from a close distance, and saw the mountains from a distance.
Red roof and white walls with blue and gold patterns on the walls.Delicate and small but without losing the ancient meaning.The style is antique, but the decoration is modern.Luke felt that this was indeed where a man like Nicole Flamel should live.
Time has passed, but the most beautiful of each stage has been left here, so that the ancient and modern coexist in a small courtyard, and every place is a scenery.
Dumbledore beside him also looked at the small courtyard not far away with a curious expression on his face.Nicole Flamel's small courtyard is really common and always new, and you can see something new every time you come.All Luke could see was time standing still on it.And Dumbledore can also see the collection of spaces in this small courtyard.
Decorations and styles from European countries, America and even the Orient can also be seen here.
Originally fused with so many elements, this small courtyard should be a messy, nondescript building.However, under Lemay's superb design ability, so many elements can be harmoniously integrated into everything, although they still appear abrupt in some places, resulting in flaws in the small courtyard as a whole, which has not reached a perfect level .
But when so many elements with different styles are put together, it is just a little bit abrupt, which can already be said that Lemay's skill has reached the peak.
Luke walked forward with great interest while looking around.He is curious about every place and every design.But after thinking about it, if an old guy who has lived for more than 600 years is really interested and talented, even if the talent is not so outstanding, it is enough to stand at the top of the pyramid in a certain industry.
Time is too lenient for LeMay.He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
And at this moment, Luke seemed to have pushed through a layer of fog, and felt the scene in front of him change again.
A reclining chair that was gently rocking suddenly appeared by the lakeside that was originally empty, and in the rocking chair was nestled an old man who looked skinny and white-haired.
The old man's chest heaved slightly with the rocking chair. He slept so peacefully, but the clothes on his body were already a little messy.It seems that the time of sleep is not short.If it weren't for Luke's good eyes, maybe he would really think that he had left.And beside his rocking chair, a large snowy owl was squatting on the ground, a bunch of wings seemed to be holding a fishing rod, and a fish bucket was placed beside him.
Luke took a careful look at the fish bucket.
Well, there really isn't a single fish...
Then Luke looked at Nico who made no secret of his age.
How should I put it, at first Luke thought that time was too lenient to Flamel. If more than 600 years were spent on some diligent, ambitious, and powerful emperors in the Muggle world, maybe they would be able to unify the world.
Such a time span, placed on a human being, it is difficult to say that there is anything that this person cannot do other than the physical limit.
Not to mention LeMay's architectural design ability, even if LeMay suddenly popped up to play "Guangling San", Luke would not be surprised, but he would think that Mr. LeMay is really well-informed.
But after seeing Flamel's state, Luke suddenly felt that such a long time may not be a simple gift to the old man in front of him.
"Even if it is the Philosopher's Stone, it can't save a body that has been rolling in the world of mortals for 600 years and is already exhausted."
Dumbledore walked to Luke's side at some point, and said while looking at the landscape-like scene over there.
Luke knew that Dumbledore must have something else to say, so he didn't answer, just listened silently.
And Dumbledore did not disappoint Luke, and said with sentimentality in his eyes: "Nicole was still young, and he was only thinking about studying, the limit of alchemy. Perenal was the only one who didn't dislike him back then. Warlock's woman. They love each other. After Nico made the Sorcerer's Stone, he was still full of ambition and youthful spirit, and he and Perenal drank the magic stone made of Sorcerer's Stone without careful experimentation. Potions. Their lifespan has been greatly extended. But they have also lost the possibility of reproduction."
"Although the Philosopher's Stone slowed down their aging, it did not stagnate them."
"Time is the most ruthless and steadfast knife."
"Even if only a little powder can be scraped off, more than 600 years are enough to scrape Niko and the others like this."
"Nike doesn't have any thoughts, and he has really lived enough... Forget it, he must have a lot to say to you, so I won't do it for you."
Dumbledore put his hand on Luke's shoulder.
"Nico was my mentor and friend when I was young. He helped me a lot and taught me a lot."
"And when I got old, I suddenly realized that I might just be an embellishment in Nicole's long life. Even if I lived to be more than 100 years old, I was still just a child in his eyes. He might even participate in my Sending away a friend who has been with him for decades. This is not the first time. He may be used to it."
"But I didn't think... that I might see him off for the last time."
There was real sadness in Dumbledore's tone.Luke could tell from the emotional dust around him that he was truly heartbroken that he had lost an elder who was both a teacher and a friend.
Luke wondered what part Nicole had played in Dumbledore's already long life.But Luke thought that if he had a friend who was more than 100 years older than him after he was more than 500 years old, he would be very happy.
If not, it's fine...
Dumbledore looked at Luke.Luke saw the water ripples in the blue eyes under the half-moon glasses.
"If you can make him hopeful, Luke, please give him motivation to live. It's not that he can't, he just doesn't want to."
"If you can't do it, then let him bid farewell to the last ties in this world. Don't leave regrets, and don't leave any ties."
Listening to Dumbledore's words, Luke suddenly understood why Dumbledore was so tolerant to a person like himself who was obviously a threat to the existing order of the wizarding world along the way.
Dumbledore has never been a selfless saint.He knows that it is difficult for him to control himself, so he does not take over power.And now, if LeMay can really regain the desire to live, will he kill such hope in the cradle?
"It hurts a bit, Professor."
Luke looked at the hand pinching his shoulder and said softly.
Dumbledore withdrew his hand like an electric shock.
"Sorry, I lost my temper."
Luke shook his head, indicating that he didn't need to care.
"I'll do my best if I can, Professor. Not just for you, but for myself."
At this moment, as if awakened by the conversation between the two, Nicole Flamel stiffly propped himself up and sat on the rocking chair.
He looked at the snowy owl beside him: "Haha, Tuanzi, you still haven't caught a single fish."
Snowy Owl turned away to ignore him.
Looking at the awkward snowy owl, Flamel smiled again.
And the moment he turned his head, he saw Luke.
Luke caught the look in his eyes.
"Hello Mr. Flamel..."
"Are you finally coming to see me, Jace?"
Dumbledore looked at Luke with a strange expression.Luke looked at his face, shook his head silently and said, "I don't seem to have any reason not to agree."
"Speaking of which, I don't mind him naming this new type of magic sword with his surname. In other words, this is his own right. I have no need to deprive him of this right."
