Chapter 418 The Road Ahead (Please subscribe, please bookmark, please vote)
It took Ryan three days to obtain the Trident of Poseidon, and it took the same amount of time to pick up all the gems that fell from the island. This was because he could easily sort out the waterless space after having the Trident.

Fortunately, these gems are all magic gems, so it is not a waste of time to waste three days to pick them up. In addition, Ryan did not plan to return to Royal Port before returning to his own world, so he used the three days at sea to initially master the function of the trident.

This trident is much less powerful than expected, and it can't control everything on the ocean. After three days of testing, Ryan found that this thing, which is similar to a glowing dead branch, can at most control the sea water. Of course, it seems that the legend of the pirates is not wrong. Being able to achieve this level is no different from controlling the ocean for people who make a living on the sea in this era.

The biggest gain for Ryan was not obtaining such a magical item, but actually feeling a little bit of the power of rules from it. It was this tiny bit of rules sealed in the trident that made Ryan realize what he should do next, which was to master the power of rules.

For example, this trident can achieve a powerful magic effect with minimal consumption because it contains a trace of the rules of the ocean. Reasoning from this perspective, Ryan naturally thought of the reason why the top wizards in his world can use practical magic to do things that ordinary wizards can't do: they should also have mastered certain rules.

Take Voldemort for example, the Killing Curse is a dangerous curse. Even the Death Eaters choose to use various spells in combination in battle, because they cannot bear the damage of using all the Killing Curses on themselves. But Voldemort is different, he can use the Killing Curse to fight the whole field.

As some Ministry of Magic staff recalled, the mysterious man could defeat several well-trained Aurors. At that time, Ryan thought that this was the reason why Voldemort was so powerful, but now he thought that it was probably because he had mastered certain rules related to death, which allowed him to easily use these magics related to death.

Of course, if we continue to associate this, Dumbledore, who has always been against him, should also have mastered certain rules. Ryan even guessed that Dumbledore and Grindelwald might have obtained the Deathly Hallows in order to master the rules beyond life and death.

Among them, the power obtained by Dumbledore should be inclined towards life and change due to the influence of family tradition, which can be guessed from the fact that their family has an immortal phoenix as a companion. Grindelwald should have chosen the power of death and destruction, so he can master the Fiendfyre that destroys everything to perfection, and even developed fire magic that can test loyalty.

For Ryan, the level of Dumbledore or Voldemort is still a little far away. But the knowledge he gained in this world has revealed a path to the highest level for him. Especially because the mystery of this world is gradually hiding and disappearing, the general environment has caused the law of controlling the sea water hidden in the trident to become very weak.

At the same time, the one who controls the seawater is also the lowest among all the laws, similar to the status of the completely marginalized gods such as the goddess of springs among the gods. So even with Ryan's level, he can study this power that comes from the most basic of the world.

However, Ryan could not choose the useless seawater control on the trident as his own law. Although this path could eventually develop into the ability to control elements, it did not fit the path Ryan chose. So Ryan could only give up the idea of ​​copying homework and choose the more troublesome way to find a suitable path for himself.

Since this artifact that seals the law is connected to this world, Ryan can only study it in this world. After choosing an uninhabited island and putting away the ship, Ryan began his research time.

One month later, with the help of the rose crystal as a communication tool, Ryan finally figured out how to master the power of rules and what kind of power of rules he should master with the help of the trident.

Maybe it was because of the Wanjie Grocery Store that Ryan found that the rule that suited him best was actually change. This was a very abstract rule, but it was not weak. Teacher Luo Zhen believed that as an alchemist, such a rule was very suitable. The improvement of alchemy was second only to the creation rule he mastered.

After changing his clothes, Ryan came to Luo Zhen's house through the space gate. Luo Zhen naturally stretched out a hand after welcoming him, and a thumb-sized stone appeared in Luo Zhen's palm. "Okay, my apprentice. Since you have come to me, it means you should have gained something. So show me your ability." Teacher Luo Zhen said with a smile.

"Then, please, Mr. Luo Zhen, come check my progress." Then he snapped his fingers lightly, and a group of runes sank into the stone, and the stone was immediately coated with a layer of gold. Luo Zhen then pulled out a silver knife and slashed the golden stone, and the stone was easily broken. Luo Zhen saw a golden light flashing on the mirror-like cross-section.

"Very good, you have already got started." Luo Zhen nodded. He saw that Ryan had used a little bit of rules to assist in the refining, and consumed very little magic power to turn the stone into pyrite. "I really hope you can master the rules like me as soon as possible. It's too lonely to go forward alone on this road. If there are several people who can verify each other, the speed of everyone's progress will be much faster than groping alone. So my disciple, come on!"

With the teacher's blessing, Ryan ended his trip and returned to Hogwarts. Of course, before that, he went back to the world of Pirates of the Caribbean and brought the Trident of Poseidon back to Port Royal, and then mixed the Trident with a lot of cement and laid it in the foundation of his house.

When Will and Elizabeth knew Ryan was leaving, they prepared a private banquet for him to see him off. At the banquet, when Ryan learned that they were going to get married in the second half of the year, he promised them that he would attend the wedding and bring them a wedding gift.

Finally, Ryan opened the blue space door and left in the slightly surprised eyes of the two people. The moment he entered the Wanjie Grocery Store, Ryan received the harvest of this adventure.

From the perspective of offset points, the gains were not much, only 31 offset points were credited. Fortunately, the accidental acquisition of the Trident of Aquaman gave him the possibility of further improvement in the future. At the same time, he also obtained gold coins related to the power of death. Maybe he could get a glimpse of Voldemort's specific situation through research. Overall, it can be considered a great harvest.

"Dumbledore and Voldemort both mastered the power of rules, and maybe Grindelwald and Nicolas Flamel as well." Ryan thought while lying on his bed. "That's how they were able to do so many things that seemed like miracles to other wizards. For example, Nicolas Flamel made the Philosopher's Stone."

It is well known that the Philosopher's Stone is an alchemical product, but as an alchemist, Ryan clearly knows that most alchemical products can be made as long as the method is mastered. The method of refining the Philosopher's Stone is actually completely public, and even in Muggle libraries, you can find manuscripts about refining the Philosopher's Stone, but from beginning to end, there are only a few alchemists in history who can make this thing.

Ryan used to think that it might be because some important materials were missing or some important knowledge was lost during the refining process of the wizards later on, which led to the inability to refine the alchemist stone. But now I think that the prerequisite for refining the alchemist stone is that the refiner must master certain rules.

It makes sense, the only thing that can fight against rules is the power of rules. The reason why the Philosopher's Stone can create an elixir of life and fight against the rules of life in nature is probably because the refiner has integrated the power of rules that he has mastered into it.

Thinking about it this way, the world of Harry Potter is really complicated! Ryan had to remind himself repeatedly to be cautious and not get carried away because of his recent improvement in skills.
