The Mightiest Wizard of Hogwarts
255 Preparation
After listening to Feeney's thoughts, Phoebus fell into deep thought.
After all, she was his youngest, most beloved, and most owed daughter. How could he not feel entangled?
However, he didn't hesitate for long before he made up his mind.
Just do it like Feeney did,
After all, if nothing is done, Astoria can only live until she is twenty, and in the years between now and twenty, Astoria will become weaker and weaker due to the curse.
After enduring all kinds of suffering, it is better to take a risk and succeed, everyone will be happy.
Failure would save Astoria from suffering for a few years.
Now that he had thought it through clearly, Phoebus did not delay any more and wrote letters to Dumbledore separately from Feeney.
Because Dumbledore was spending his last moments with Nico and his wife in Nico's manor, this letter could only be delivered personally by Feeney, who knew the location of Nico's manor.
After all, Nico's manor is protected by a curse. Only Dumbledore and Finny know the specific location. Even their owls cannot find the specific location and can only communicate with each other through Nico's owl.
Because he was ready to get rid of Astoria's curse as soon as possible, Finny did not delay. After saying hello to Sirius and letting him go home, he directly asked Puff to take him to the border between England and France.
,
Even house elves cannot disembark across borders in one go. It would be okay if the Greengrass family was closer to France, but based on where Puff stopped now, it can be basically judged that Greengrass
The Si family's manor was also located near the Scottish Highlands, and the address Phoebus told him also proved this.
Therefore, we can only stop here at the national border and then apparate.
Fortunately, the house elves' talent in magic means that they do not need to rest to recover their magic power even if they are performing such a long-distance disembodiment. After three stops, Feeney came to the small town of Nicolas in France, which is also the town of Nicolas.
The little town where you can live in seclusion,
After making Puff invisible, Feeney came to the familiar location of Nico's residence and walked in.
At this time, Nico and Dumbledore were drinking black tea and eating desserts in the living room.
I don’t know whether it’s because they are both very old, or because people gather in groups and things are sorted into groups.
Dumbledore and Nico both liked sweets, but Feeney thought the second option might be more reasonable because he also liked sweets.
At first, he bought the sugar factory because he wanted to lick Dumbledore. Later, he also fell in love with this kind of food that makes people feel good.
After greeting Nico and Dumbledore, Finny expressed his assumptions and thoughts about Astoria's curse.
"This is a good idea and has the potential to succeed."
After listening to Feeney's thoughts, Nico said with praise,
"It seems that Feeney now has a deep understanding of the nature of magic. If age had not restricted you, you might have become a great wizard by now."
Feeney smiled and asked,
"So, seniors and professors, do you two think this idea has a high chance of being true?"
Dumbledore nodded and said,
"To tell you the truth, Feeney, I have made similar assumptions before. There was even a student at Hogwarts who had a similar idea and took action himself. However, his control over Li Huo was
And because the difficulty of controlling the Phoenix Flame is far greater than that of the Li Fire, his experiment failed, and because of this, the idea was hidden."
Feeney said confidently,
"There is no need to worry about this, Professor. I am still very confident in my control of the fire. As for the Phoenix flame, in the entire magic world, when it comes to understanding the Phoenix and controlling the Phoenix flame, no one can say that it is better than you, Professor."
,So, the main purpose of my coming here this time is to invite you, professor, to go with me to lift Astoria's curse."
Dumbledore glanced at Nico, hesitant.
There are two reasons for his hesitation. First of all, this idea is just a hypothesis in the final analysis. Although the probability of realization is very high, it is only a hypothesis after all. It has not been judged by experiments. Moreover, there are no conditions for experiments. Failure is a human life.
, this is something that Dumbledore, who is already very kind at this time, cannot do,
If it was him decades ago, he might be able to do this without blinking, but today he...
Another reason is Nico,
Because of the agreement and Nico's own decision, the Philosopher's Stone was destroyed, and the elixir left behind can actually only keep Nico and his wife alive until September this year. This is how many more days Nico will have to live to prepare for them.
Regarding the funeral of the two of them, as one of the few old friends still alive, Dumbledore was really reluctant to part with him.
Nico seemed to see Dumbledore's hesitation and said with a smile,
"Speaking of which, I'm quite interested in Feeney's ideas. Feeney, I don't think you would refuse some cliche old man to watch your experiments, right?"
Feeney was stunned for a moment, and then said hurriedly,
"Of course, senior, if you can pass by, I will be more confident,"
Yes, as the most powerful alchemist in the magic world today, even the alchemist of the Presbyterian Church cannot compare with Nico,
If he were present, he could do such a harsh thing as Finny and the others could still save Astoria's life.
Dumbledore saw that Nico was about to leave, so he no longer hesitated and decided to go to Greengrass' manor with Finny.
Because of his loyalty and Astoria's sake, Phoebus directly told Finny the location of the manor, so they did not need to go to London to wait for Greengrass' carriage on their way back.
"Thank you very much for coming, Professor Albus Dumbledore,"
Phoebus had been waiting at the entrance of the manor for a long time. When he saw Feeney and the others walking out, he said hello to Dumbledore.
Just as he was talking, he saw Nico,
However, Nico has been living in seclusion in the magic world for hundreds of years, so Phoebus did not recognize his identity and hesitated for a moment.
However, he was the patriarch of a family after all, and his thoughts were changing very quickly. He instantly thought that this must be the person Feini had invited to treat his little daughter, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand and said,
"And sir, thank you very much for coming."
After saying that, he went to hold Nico's hand. He looked at Finny and was frightened, but it was too late to stop him.
Just listen, a click.
Nico's hand bone was broken,
"Uh-oh!"
Nico screamed, and Phoebus was so frightened that he quickly let go.
"Sir, are you okay?"
Dumbledore smiled and cast healing magic on Nico,
Feeney smiled and explained to Phoebus,
"This is Nico Flamel. Due to the elixir of life, his body is relatively fragile now."
Phoebus was completely stunned. Dumbledore was also a legend in the wizarding world, but after all, it was an existence that everyone could see and touch, so he was not that surprised.
Nico is different. According to legend, he has lived for five hundred years. He is not only a legend in the magic world, but also a myth. When a mythical character appears in front of you, shock is considered a very rational reaction.
,
Finny, Dumbledore and Nico were all happy when they saw Phoebus's expression. On the way, the three of them also guessed what Phoebus's reaction would be when he knew Nico's identity.
,
The current reaction amused these three people.
"Okay, senior, professor, let's go in. Astoria was put to sleep by me using the stun spell. She probably hasn't woken up yet. We still need to wake her up and tell her some preparations.
"
When Dumbledore heard this, the smile on his face also disappeared.
He knew very well that for Feeney's method to be realized, in addition to the control of Li Huo and Phoenix's flames, more importantly, the person being caster needed to be aware of the value of the whole place. Otherwise, even with the Phoenix's flames, he would only be able to save
Will be a living dead, an existence without will and soul,
However, what kind of willpower is needed to bear the feeling of being burned by flames?
You know, Astoria is just a little girl who is not yet eleven years old. Now that Dumbledore thinks about what will happen to her next, he feels heartbroken.
It's not enough, there is no other way, this is the only way.
Following the guidance of Phoebus and Finney, several people came to the room where Astoria was sleeping. Finney cast a spell to wake her up.
"Is it over? There's still nothing we can do, right?"
Astoria woke up and asked subconsciously. Her tone was calm and skillful, making people's hearts skip a beat.
Feeney shook his head and said,
"I have some ideas. If nothing else happens, after this time, you will not be affected by the curse. Even your family may not be affected by the curse anymore."
Astoria's eyes lit up when she heard this. She suddenly woke up from the dazed state she had just woken up from, and asked in surprise,
"real?"
Then she noticed Dumbledore, Nico, and her father Phoebus beside her, and hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"Professor Dumbledore, father, and this old gentleman, hello,"
Dumbledore nodded and said,
"Fini is right, we have indeed found a way to solve this curse, but now there is another question, and we need to ask for your opinion."
Astoria said hurriedly,
"I have no objection, just do what you want."
Feeney shook his head and said,
"No, this method requires your cooperation,"
Dumbledore added,
"And this cooperation must be your initiative. At the same time, it will be a kind of pain that you have never endured before."
Astoria looked at her father with a puzzled look on her face. After seeing her father nod, she then looked at Finny, waiting for his explanation.
Feeney took a deep breath and said,
"I found out the specific situation of the blood curse in your body. If this curse has just been put into your body, there may be other ways and it will be easier. However, this curse has been in your family for thousands of years.
The legend has been completely integrated into your flesh and blood, so there is only one way to lift the curse?"
Astoria asked,
"What can I do?"
"Destroy and build again. That means completely destroying your body and then rebuilding it. This way you can separate the power of the curse from your blood and completely lift the curse."
There was a hint of fear on Astoria's face, and she asked with a trembling voice,
"Would it hurt to be completely destroyed?"
It is normal for children to be afraid of pain. Even though Astoria and Feeny were so frank and unconcerned when they said they wanted him to conduct experiments directly on her, in fact she was also very afraid.
Feeney nodded and said in a low voice,
"That's right, and because of the curse, the magic we use to destroy your body must be the extremely destructive Fire Spell. Correspondingly, the only way to restore your body is to use a phoenix with properties similar to Fire.
of flame,"
Dumbledore sighed and said,
"Miss Greengrass, you have experienced the feeling when the Phoenix flame suppressed the curse before at Hogwarts. The fierce fire burned and the Phoenix flame restored. This process is far beyond your previous experience, even hundreds of times.
A thousand-fold increase, and in order to ensure that there are no other accidents in this process and our final success, we need you to maintain your consciousness throughout the entire process,"
Astoria was stunned and said blankly,
"In other words, I need to clearly feel the pain throughout the entire process?"
"Yes, that's right, Miss Greengrass, I'm afraid the truth is exactly what you said."
Astoria thought for a moment and then said firmly,
"Okay, I understand, then come on."
The tone was as if he was preparing to die, which made Feeney feel very moved.
He looked at Phoebus and said,
"We need a very strong room that can eventually withstand magic such as fire."
Phoebus thought for a moment and said,
"I definitely don't have a room here that can withstand severe fire. However, there is a room in the castle that our family used to practice magic. Some war magic will not cause much damage to the room."
Feeney nodded,
"Can,"
After hearing this, Phoebus took a few people to the basement of the castle, which was an empty round room.
The room is very bright, the floor, ceiling and walls are all dark green, and there are some huge paintings hanging on the walls.
"This is our family's magic practice room. However, the place I want to take you to is not here."
As he spoke, he came to a portrait, bowed slightly and said,
"Grandpa, I need to use the refuge room."
The figure in the portrait glanced at Phoebus, then walked aside, revealing a door behind him in the portrait.
Phoebus reached out and grabbed the door handle on the portrait, and pulled hard. The door on the portrait opened, and a series of stairs stretched out from the portrait.
