Chapter 695: The Philosopher's Stone and Dumbledore's Dirty Water

Lying on the bed, Andy recalled the conversation with Grindelwald tonight.

The portable grandfather is still quite powerful.

Not only did he reveal a lot of information about the god of death, he also agreed to send Andy a large number of alchemy books.

These books were the precious collection of Nicolas Flamel. After he decided to die calmly, he donated all his books to his alma mater, Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

There is no doubt that this is a priceless treasure.

Andy even suspected that Nicolas Flamel might have hidden the method of making the Philosopher's Stone in these books.

Because no matter how you look at it, Nicolas Flamel would not let the method of making the Philosopher's Stone be lost.

This is a precious treasure of the magic world and the highest achievement of alchemy. As a world-renowned alchemist, Nicolas Flamel would never let the inheritance of alchemy be interrupted.

Dumbledore is the same in this respect.

Dumbledore knew that "Advanced Dark Magic" was the ultimate book on dark magic, but he never thought of destroying the book.

Because this is the wisdom inheritance left by our ancestors.

Even though it is black magic, it is also valuable knowledge that has been summed up bit by bit by countless people using their wisdom.

Dumbledore might hide the book, but he would never destroy it - because Dumbledore was not qualified to do so.

Because of this, in Andy's opinion, there is a high probability that Nicolas Flamel would leave behind the method of making the Philosopher's Stone.

Of course, if you want to find the method to make the Philosopher's Stone, you may have to pass the test left by Nicolas Flamel.

And... find the original book!

These books may contain the method of making the Philosopher's Stone, or perhaps the method of finding it.

In short, there must be!

"Hmm...it seems necessary to go to Beauxbatons School of Magic." Andy said to himself.

The library of Beauxbatons School of Magic.

and the Department of Mysteries' reference room.

These are the two places Andy wants to go the most at the moment!

In addition to the exchange of magical knowledge, Andy also reached a consensus on non-aggression with Grindelwald.

Grindelwald will not come to the British wizarding world to cause trouble.

Andy didn't stop him.

Although this was just a consensus between the two of them and there was not even a verbal agreement, according to Grindelwald: this was more trustworthy than the Blood Alliance.

Overall, Andy gained a lot tonight.

Knowledge of alchemy and information about the god of death...these are what Andy needs most right now.

Of course, Andy did not do so without any effort.

Because Andy revealed Dumbledore's information to Grindelwald.

Voldemort is dead!

Currently, only Andy, Snape, Harry, and Dumbledore know this news.

If one wants to paralyze Grindelwald, the best way is to conceal the news that "Voldemort is dead" and let Dumbledore sneak back into the European wizarding world to capture Grindelwald.

This information is valuable!

Of course, the specific action plan will depend on how the Daily Prophet reports tomorrow morning.

After organizing his thoughts, Andy emptied his mind and soon fell asleep.

……

That night, Hogwarts was as peaceful as ever.

But the wizarding world outside changed completely with the death of Voldemort.

The Ministry of Magic secretly dispatched a large number of Aurors and strikers. According to the information provided by Snape, they arrested a large number of Death Eaters and rescued all the imprisoned Aurors.

This battle can be described as a complete victory!

To be honest, the Ministry of Magic is still very powerful, and the overall strength of the Aurors is stronger than that of the Death Eaters.

You only need to compare to know this kind of thing.

Who are the Death Eaters?

Pure-blood wizards, dark wizards, and some social scum.

Where are the Aurors?

Only outstanding graduates from Hogwarts are eligible to take the Auror examination.

They receive the most generous salary and have undergone the most professional training. To some extent, Aurors are the most elite group of wizards in the wizarding world.

During the two wizarding wars, the reason why the Aurors seemed vulnerable was mainly because of the super-standard wizard Voldemort.

Take the last Wizarding War, for example.

As soon as Voldemort died, the Death Eaters were completely wiped out in just a few months.

From this we can see that super-standard wizards have almost overwhelming advantages when facing ordinary wizards.

……

Near the dawn, this massive arrest operation finally came to an end.

Ministry of Magic, Office of the Minister.

At this moment, there were only three people in the office: Dumbledore, Scrimgeour, and Bones.

Although the arrest operation was over, the expressions of the three men were still extremely serious.

"Dumbledore, I can promise you..."

Minister Bones bit his lower lip and said in a serious tone: "I can temporarily hide the news from God... hide the news that Voldemort is dead, but I can't hide it for too long."

"You know, we have captured so many people tonight. If Voldemort is still alive, he will definitely take revenge."

"in addition……"

"These Death Eaters need to be tried as well."

"I can help you delay the Department of Magical Law Enforcement for a week at most."

A week?

Dumbledore nodded slowly, "One week then!"

In terms of time, Dumbledore returned to the British wizarding world the day before yesterday, killed Voldemort yesterday, and soon he will show up at Hogwarts before leaving for Europe immediately.

After arriving in Europe, he also had to collect and organize information about Grindelwald and find his hiding place.

Including the time for planning and arrest...

A week is barely enough!

If the capture fails this time, Grindelwald will certainly be on guard. In this case, there will be no point in continuing to conceal the news that Voldemort is dead.

You can only use the surprise attack once!

"Dumbledore, is the situation in Europe really that tense?" Scrimgeour asked with a frown.

Unlike Minister Bones, Scrimgeour was somewhat suspicious of Dumbledore.

It has been some time since Voldemort was resurrected.

During this period of time, Dumbledore has been on the defensive and has never taken any initiative.

Originally this was nothing.

After all, their opponent is Voldemort.

But now?

Damn it! Dumbledore just came back the day before yesterday, killed Voldemort yesterday, and is leaving for Europe today to deal with Grindelwald.

It only took two days for Voldemort to be defeated.

This is too fast!

In other words, Dumbledore can kill Voldemort at any time!

Add to that the rumors these past two days...

At this moment, Scrimgeour really suspected that Dumbledore was deliberately letting Voldemort go.

If Grindelwald had not returned, Scrimgeour even suspected that Dumbledore would have continued to be in a "stalemate" with Voldemort.

"Yes! The situation over there is very bad!"

Dumbledore said in a serious tone: "If Grindelwald cannot be captured as soon as possible, perhaps...even I will not be his opponent."
