Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

Nicolas Flamel didn't seem to care, but Dumbledore was very attentive, observing Quirrell through various means... After all, Quirrell had been very suspicious from the beginning.

After confirming that Quirrell had entered the Hog's Head, Dumbledore's vigilance immediately increased...

The Hog's Head Pub is located in a corner of Hogsmeade Village. The pub's customers disguise themselves, covering their faces and bodies, so wizards often conduct business here.

At Pighead Bar, you can find some businessmen, not exactly shady, illegal...

'Has anything been done yet?'

Dumbledore thought to himself, and after Fang Rui and Nicolas Flamel arrived at the school, he felt a little more free. After thinking for a moment, he began to act...

Using the Disillusionment Charm to conceal his form, Dumbledore secretly followed Quirrell, quietly watching him... It was only because Voldemort's strength had not yet recovered that he could do this, otherwise he would have been easily discovered.

………………

With Dumbledore watching over him, Quirrell is unlikely to cause much trouble and can be considered out of the running.

"What a busy person!"

Upon receiving the message, Fang Rui suddenly looked up towards the principal's office, exhaled a soft breath, and then lowered his head to continue reading.

As for Dumbledore's instructions, he has already kept them in mind and there won't be any problems.

Protecting the students was a piece of cake for Fang Rui.

It's nothing serious...

On the other hand, Fang Rui's progress in learning spells was very fast, almost rapid. Perhaps this was because the magic system was quite idealistic and not very rigorous in its theory.

However, the spells Fang Rui possessed were different from those of others. After all, Fang Rui did not have wizard blood, and he could use spells by substituting other energies for magic.

"Perhaps we should study magic..."

Collecting magic is very simple. Young wizards have difficulty controlling their own magic, so some magic will leak out. It is easy to collect a lot of magic at school.

In addition, magical creatures also possess magic, and the Forbidden Forest is home to countless magical creatures, providing ample research material.

After a brief moment of thought, Fang Rui handed over the task of reading to his clone and headed to the Forbidden Forest to capture magical creatures...

Capturing magical creatures was an idea Fang Rui had from the beginning. Although he had the ability to create creatures, why bother creating them from scratch when there were already some available?

Wandering through the forbidden forest, Fang Rui surveyed the lush woods, searching for magical animals and enchanted plants.

To be honest, Fang Rui wasn't interested in most magical creatures and plants, like unicorns...

It's not very useful, has significant side effects, and most importantly... it's an SP (Special Purpose).

As for magical plants, Fang Rui had no interest in collecting any other magical plants besides those with special effects.

By the way, plant magic is very useful, especially when it comes to modifying plants.

Wandering around the Forbidden Forest for a while, I didn't see many magical creatures, but I did see quite a few dark creatures, such as werewolves, giant spiders, and monstrous snakes.

To be honest, there are far too many giant eight-eyed spiders, and the Forbidden Forest's ecosystem has been destroyed.

"Tell Dumbledore to handle it!"

With that, he flicked his wand, smashing an eight-eyed giant spider to pieces, and Fang Rui continued forward...

"While I'm at it, could you please do me a favor and buy a fire dragon..."

"Speaking of which, fire dragons can be purchased... right?"

As the saying goes, where there is demand, there is a market. If you really want to buy an adult fire dragon, you can. Of course, buying a dragon egg will be easier.

With that in mind, Fang Rui lowered his requirements: one male and one female fire dragon cub, of every kind of fire dragon...

With another swing of the wand, a beam of light shot out, shattering an eight-eyed giant spider into pieces.

"There are more and more spiders!"

Temporarily stopping his thoughts on other matters, Fang Rui looked around and saw huge spiders crawling out of the darkness, their rustling sounds like surround sound.

He swiftly waved his wand, unleashing streaks of light that shattered the eight-eyed giant spiders, while he himself effortlessly dodged the attacks as if taking a leisurely stroll.

Looking at the eight-eyed giant spiders that had been targeted by the Severing Curse, all of them separated into head, body and legs, and recalling the curse's incantation "to shatter into pieces," Fang Rui seemed to be deep in thought.

Immediately afterward, as he released the spell, Fang Rui imagined the effect he wanted to achieve.

A few seconds later, the spider struck by the curse had its fate changed.

It is no longer a unified fragmentation, but a chaotic fragmentation.

The effect of a spell is related to the wizard's will.

This point was mentioned in many of the books he read: the power of a spell is related to the wizard's will and emotions; the stronger the emotion, the more powerful the spell.

For example, the Killing Curse is more powerful the stronger the emotion of killing intent, but if there is no killing intent, it may not cause any harm at all.

While testing the spell's transformations, Fang Rui was simultaneously collecting magical energy.

Perhaps due to the immense losses, or perhaps for other reasons, the eight-eyed giant spider began to retreat...

Fang Rui did not pursue, but continued exploring the forbidden forest...

At the same time, Dumbledore already had a guess about what Quirrell was planning to do.

After a moment's thought, Dumbledore didn't stop Quirrell's idea. After all, with sufficient preparation, Quirrell's plan wouldn't pose too much danger; on the contrary, it could be used for the students' training...

Of course, the premise was to ensure the safety of the students. With this in mind, Dumbledore approached Nicolas Flamel.

"An alchemical item that can provide defense?"

Nicolas Flamel looked somewhat strange, as if asking: Why are you coming to me about something so simple?

Reading Nicolas Flamel's eyes, Dumbledore replied, "The amount needed is a bit too much..."

"I hope that within a week, every junior wizard in the school will have one..."

Nicolas Flamel's face darkened visibly. His alchemical skills were indeed very high, but that didn't mean he could create alchemical items very quickly.

Especially with hundreds of students in a school, it's simply impossible for him to create hundreds of alchemical items within a week.

"Is that so..." Dumbledore knew his request was quite unreasonable, but he still didn't give up. "What about adding Fang Rui? Can that be done?"

Nicolas Flamel: "…………" How should I know…

"Why do you need to include me in this?"

Just then, Fang Rui, who had just returned, asked.

Even after causing a ruckus in the Forbidden Forest, Fang Rui's clothes remained clean and tidy.

Upon hearing this, Dumbledore reiterated his request.

Fang Rui listened attentively, nodded slightly, and spoke only after Dumbledore finished speaking: "It can be done."

"What are the requirements for the appearance and function of the props?" Fang Rui asked.

His tone was as relaxed as a waiter asking a customer what they would like to eat in a restaurant, a stark contrast to Nicolas Flamel's previous reaction.

Dumbledore pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then, without any hesitation, stated his requirements: "Ideally, it should be shield-shaped, portable, and capable of casting an armor spell..."

"The requirements are very simple!"

Fang Rui nodded slightly and said, "We can deliver the goods tonight, provided that we have enough materials..."

"There are definitely enough materials, you can rest assured."

Since they dared to make the request, Dumbledore could naturally guarantee that there would be enough materials; the school's warehouse was filled with all sorts of materials.

"...Prepare a quiet room for me, the kind where no one will bother me."

"no problem."

As they left the room, Dumbledore and Fang Rui followed, eager to see what Fang Rui was up to.

As for the materials needed for alchemy, they were brought by Professor McGonagall.

Outside the castle, beside the lake, in an empty open space...

Fang Rui's alchemy methods were not quite what Nicolas Flamel had imagined.

The active fire element caused the raging flames to change shape in the air, and the high-temperature air waves spread, causing moisture to evaporate rapidly.

"What a spectacular scene!" Nicolas Flamel exclaimed.

Imagine his alchemy process; at most, he used a campfire the size of a basin to melt metal. Compared to Fang Rui, it's a completely different level.

"It's truly spectacular!" Professor McGonagall agreed, watching Fang Rui put in the materials and then quickly create one exquisitely patterned badge after another, she felt an indescribable emotion.

When did alchemy become so easy?

For an ordinary alchemist, it would probably take about half a day to create an alchemical item of the same level; the difference is too obvious.

"All completed."

Glancing at the badges piled on the ground, Fang Rui explained, "The badges can absorb a wizard's magic. When one armor spell is broken, a second armor spell will be automatically released."

"...A fantastic design, perfectly suited for Aurors," Professor McGonagall exclaimed.

The boost from skipping the casting time of defensive spells during the capture of the dark wizard is substantial.

Then, she turned to Dumbledore and asked, "Albus, what are you planning to do?"

Even if she knew nothing, after seeing so many alchemical items, McGonagall could guess that something was about to happen.

“Quirk’s plan to lure dark creatures to attack Hogwarts is a good opportunity to hone my skills…”

Before Dumbledore could finish speaking, McGonagall interrupted, "No! It's too dangerous!"

Her face clearly showed her disapproval.

"Don't worry, it's very safe." Dumbledore's gaze turned towards the Forbidden Forest.

On the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest, there are no particularly dangerous dark creatures, just a rather large number of them.

Some spells are incredibly powerful when used for area-of-effect attacks, effectively reducing the number of enemies to a level that students can handle.

With the protection of the "badge," the young wizard's safety can be guaranteed.

McGonagall hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to trust Dumbledore and didn't dwell on the matter. Instead, she asked Fang Rui to add a few more defensive spells.

Fang Rui had no objection to this, and added a few more functions to the badge to weaken the effects of curse-type abilities. After all, it was a dark creature, and poison and curses were its most common abilities.

Once the matter was resolved, McGonagall left with the badges, distributing them to each student to ensure no one was missed.

As for Fang Rui, after finishing his temporary work, he returned to his temporary residence to continue his research on "magic".
