I'm the king of the roll at Hogwarts

Chapter 168 Borrowing Two British Treasures

Waterloo, even if you are not British or French, you will know this place name.

After all, this place name has become synonymous with failure, a meme known all over the world.

What's more, as the people of Britain and France, it is impossible for them not to know about this battlefield that determines the fate of the two countries.

When he was taking history classes, Louis had always been a loyal fan of France. After all, the personal charm of the Emperor was still quite popular.

On the other hand, it is also because of human nature that everyone will subconsciously sympathize with losers with good personal charm. This is why Xiang Yu, Liu Bei, and Napoleon have always been sympathized.

Of course, those who whitewash Zhao Kuo, Yang Guang and Li Jiancheng and make them the Ten Sages of the Internet Temple out of sympathy are stupid.

There is nothing wrong with sympathy, but it is too much to whitewash people just because of sympathy.

Generally speaking, fools have good luck, but these idiots don't.

But now Louis has become a loyal fan of Wellington. There is an old saying that goes, I'm talking about positions, not facts. This is how Louis feels now.

"I don't understand what you mean. How will the Eternal Dragon interfere in the Battle of Waterloo?" Louis asked curiously.

Chromie answered without hesitation: "Generally speaking, the Eternal Dragon's method is simple and crude. I think you should know about the purification of Stratholme. The Eternal Dragon's method is to directly assassinate Arthas Menethil... I think if nothing unexpected happens, they might assassinate Arthur Wellesley."

Arthur Wellesley is the real name of the Duke of Wellington.

After thinking for a moment, Louis asked a very crucial question: "What if they change their tactics?"

"Ah, this..." Chromie was stunned for a moment, then laughed dryly: "Then I really haven't thought about this problem..."

"Then you probably haven't thought about one thing." Louis looked at Chromie sharply, "If they change their tactics and you still use the old method to deal with them, you may be caught off guard."

"But Nozdormu hasn't told anyone about this!" Chromie said aggrievedly.

"Okay, besides Waterloo, is there any other timeline that has problems?" Louis decided to change the subject. He didn't know what to say to the bronze dragon in front of him who was not very flexible.

All along, the bronze dragon that controls the timeline has given him the impression of being an extremely reliable existence. The bronze dragon in the game seems to have never had any major problems except for the Battle of Quicksand. At least it is much more reliable than the blue dragons that are weak in combat and crazy.

Yes, and there are also those lazy people like Green Dragon who just slack off and sleep all day long...

Now it seems that the old impression may not be reliable. The bronze dragon in front of me has really overturned my impression.

"I don't know either. So far, we have only detected the Battle of Waterloo." Cromie spread his hands, as if it was none of his business.

Well, the blame was indeed not on him. He still understood the principle that a thief can steal for a thousand days but you cannot guard against thieves for a thousand days.

Louis nodded: "So when do we leave?"

"Look at you. Any time." Chromie stretched. "Due to the interference of the Eternal Dragon, the timeline is flowing parallel to the main world's timeline. Let me see. Ah, Wellesley has arrived in Brussels."

Louis knew the meaning of this place name, so he quickly asked, "What time is it now? June 6th?"

Hearing this, Chromie raised his thin little carrot arm and pretended to check his watch. After a long while, he slowly replied, "Yes, it is noon on June 1815, 6... 15:."

"But considering that you've been on a flight for a whole day, it's better to rest for a night." Chromie suggested. It's easy to go wrong if you do serious work when you're tired.

Louis patted her head, almost knocking her forward. Seeing Chromie's unhappy expression, he suggested, "Rest or not is a small matter. I think we should go there in advance to prevent the Eternal Dragon from cheating and sucking the Duke of Wellington."

"Okay, if you insist." Chromie nodded and raised his little hand to throw sand.

"Wait a minute!" Louis pulled her little carrot arm: "Wait a minute, have you ever thought about how we should get into the Duke of Wellington's side?"

"Ah... this..." Chromie was embarrassed again.

Louis really wanted to reach out and strangle her to death now.

This is so infuriating...

"Okay, forget it." Louis waved his hand weakly: "Can you use the portal to send me to Westminster..."

Perhaps sensing Louis' unfriendly gaze, Chromie said repeatedly, "I know this. I've even memorized a lot of teleportation beacons! There are yours, and those from major cities around the world, as well as those from Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, and many other magic schools..."

"Hey, you remember it so clearly, do you want to counterattack the earth?" Louis pinched Chromie's little face.

"No, really not..." Chromie quickly broke free, rubbing his red face, "Louis, you know me well. If I wanted to invade the Earth, I would definitely not ask you for cooperation..."

"That's true, but I think you really have some special skills." Louis patted her head: "Is there any from Buckingham Palace?"

"Yes." Chromie said, rubbing out a portal.

Louis turned around and looked at Catherine and the other two: “Wait here for a while, I’ll go get some tokens.”

"Well, be careful." Ye Ziyan reminded.

Louis nodded, grabbed Chromie and went through the portal.

In the restaurant, my uncle and aunt were having dinner. There were no outsiders, and they were all tight-lipped. Louis' sudden appearance only scared my cousin Anne, while the others looked as if they were used to it.

"Your way of appearing is becoming more and more special, Louis." The uncle even lowered his head and continued to fight with the food on the plate. He said slowly: "I hope that the next time you appear, your way of appearing will not scare us two old people..."

"Haha... look at what you said." Louis laughed dryly and scratched his head.

Auntie put down the knife and fork in her hand, and rubbed her mouth with the napkin: "Tell me, you came in such a hurry, there must be something urgent."

"Aunt is still the best." Louis smiled proudly at his uncle, but found that he didn't even raise his head.

To be honest, the Yorkshire pudding on the plate is more appealing than Louis's dish.

As soon as the aunt finished speaking, the servants in the restaurant filed out. The last one to leave was so thoughtful as to close the door to prevent any sound from leaking out.

It should be said that they have been trained to be very sensible.

Louis waited until they were all outside before picking Chromie up.

"Well, it's a long story. There are some criminals roaming around in the timeline, and one group has reached June 1815, 6..." As soon as Louis mentioned the date, his aunt interrupted with a frown, "You mean... Waterloo?"

Well, the Battle of Waterloo is indeed engraved in the DNA of every British person.

After all, this is the result of the last victory over France...

"Yes." Louis gave a thumbs up. "So I plan to go back to 1815 to protect the Duke of Wellington, so that he will not be harmed by criminals and cause Britain to lose the Battle of Waterloo."

As he spoke, Louis patted the back of Chromie's head, and the latter reluctantly raised a cloud of yellow sand, demonstrating his ability to travel through time and space to everyone.

The yellow sand created a miniature whirlwind in the air, which eventually turned into ripples, and behind the ripples, London in 1914 appeared.

The sharp-eyed aunt saw her grandfather, the bearded George V, sitting not far away.

George V, who was not yet 50 years old, looked full of vigor and vitality, not at all as old as she remembered.

In her vision, there is also her father George VI in his youth, and her uncle Edward who loves beauty more than power, but they are all motionless.

Cousin Charlie didn't believe it and even walked in, looked around, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his great-grandfather, and when there was no response, he took away a pie and a juice jug.

The cousin returned to the real world and looked at the thing in his hand. It didn't look fake at all. He put down the juice jug, picked up a piece of pie and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Yeah, it tastes like banana." My cousin said vaguely, "It tastes pretty good, but the taste is a bit retro."

Now, Chromie's true ability has been confirmed.

The aunt stared at the elders in front of her in a daze, and only came to her senses after Chromie took back the time and space gate.

"Okay, my little cookie, tell me, what do you want?"

"Well, I just want to get something to prove my identity, in case the Duke of Wellington doesn't believe me and becomes hostile to me." Louis used the word "get", which sounded so indecent, just like a seagull at the beach wanting to "get" some French fries on the pier.

Aunt nodded, understanding what Louis meant. She stood up and walked to the phone beside her, picked up the receiver and said something, then motioned Louis to follow her.

Louis patted the back of Chromie's head again, meaning for her to come along.

The two, one big and one small, followed their aunt and came to a not very spacious room.

There were a few objects placed quietly on the table.

"This is the St. Edward's Crown." Auntie pointed to one of the crowns, which was extremely gorgeous and inlaid with various gems and diamonds, and introduced it to Louis. She then pointed to another golden metal ball that was also inlaid with gems and a scepter with a giant teardrop-shaped diamond on the top. "This is the royal orb and the king's scepter. Can you see if these three can prove that the Duke of Wellington is trusted?"

Louis admitted that he was a little petrified. Even though he had a little money in his life, he admitted that he was a little moved when faced with his aunt's three national treasures.

Sure enough, if you don't like treasures, then it's all fake... No one can resist the temptation of luxury jewelry, okay? Not only women, but men can't resist it either.

Louis nodded like a nodding bug, but suddenly heard Chromie ask beside him: "Just these three things... can you win the trust of the Duke of Wellington?"

Aunt and Louis looked at Chromie strangely. You call this a thing?
Is it me, Louis, who can't lift the knife anymore, or is it you, Chromie, who is getting carried away?

But he never expected that Chromie stretched out his hand and sprinkled a handful of yellow sand, then reached into the ripples formed by the yellow sand, with an expression like Doraemon searching the pocket of the four-dimensional space.

"Found it." She said excitedly, reaching out and pulling out three identical things: "Here, these are the three... I took them out from another timeline..."

As a result, the three national treasures in front of my aunt disappeared in an instant.

Aunt looked at the three national treasures in Chromie's hands, then looked at the empty space in front of her. She sat down on the stool, covered her chest with her hands and took deep breaths.

For an old man, the impact was quite big.

"Uh, sorry, I forgot the uniqueness of the timeline." Chromie stuck out his tongue mischievously and stuffed the three things back.

Sure enough, the moment she stuffed it back, the three things returned to her aunt's front.

“Don’t do this next time. My aunt is old and can’t stand such a scare…” Louis complained, patting his aunt’s back gently to help the elderly calm down.

"It's okay...it's okay..." Auntie didn't care too much. Instead, she looked at Chromie and said, "You have a very good ability. There are many lost treasures that can be retrieved in this way...When you are done with the Battle of Waterloo, remember to bring this little...I don't even know the name of this little lady yet."

"Her name is Chromie, and she's a bronze dragon." Louis patted Chromie's head, causing the other party to glare at him. "Don't be fooled by her small appearance. In fact, she has lived for tens of thousands of years."

"Really?" Auntie suddenly became interested, and did not forget to remind Louis: "I will lend you these three things first. Of course... you have to return them to me. After all, you don't want your cousin Charlie to lose face when he ascends the throne in the future, right?"

“Don’t worry, auntie, I know.” Louis carefully used the space to collect the three treasures, which made his auntie’s eyelids jump again.

Elderly people can't stand this, it really makes people have high blood pressure. Auntie rubbed her temples with her middle and ring fingers and began to see the guests off: "Okay, the situation is urgent, I won't keep you two here, you can go."

"Okay, say hello to my uncle, cousin and others for me~" Louis said, then grabbed Chromie and left in a flash.

……

In Nuke's hotel suite, the two men suddenly appeared in front of the three women who were waiting a little anxiously.

"How is it, have you found a solution?" Catherine asked with concern.

Louis quickly took out the Crown of St. Edward from the space. The polar daylight shone directly through the window onto the bright gem on the top of the crown, emitting dazzling light.

It almost blinded the three men and two dragons.

Catherine and Ye Ziyan's eyes turned into sparkling diamond shapes almost in an instant.

"To be honest, the size of the diamonds on this crown is not very common even in Azeroth." Chromie commented with a click of the tongue, and then added a sentence that attracted Catherine and Ye Ziyan's attention to her.

"Once I'm done with this timeline disruption, I can find something much bigger than this thing from my personal collection to give you."

Catherine and Ye Ziyan looked at each other, with the fire of war burning in their eyes.

Louis shuddered. He could see that even if God came, he couldn't stop these two women's desire for diamonds...
