I'm Really an Alchemist

Diagon Alley was in chaos.

Gringotts let out a shrill roar, as well as the goblin's frantic footsteps, desperate howls, and angry roars.

It appears they have discovered that the vault has been stolen.

Zhou Qi lowered his hood and quickly left Diagon Alley.

He placed the disappearing cabinet in the basement of the villa, and arranged the basement as a magic laboratory. At the end of the Christmas vacation, he took the steam train and returned to Hogwarts.

At this time, the deduction trio is still investigating the Sorcerer's Stone according to the track of the original book.

Harry Potter received the Invisibility Cloak from Dumbledore.

Zhou Qi is very interested in the Deathly Hallows, but he is not in a hurry. Harry Potter will continue to have this invisibility cloak for seven years, and he just needs to come and study it if he finds an opportunity in the middle.

Professor Quirrell seems to be trying to break into the basement on Christmas Day and steal the Sorcerer's Stone.

However, Professor Snape also applied to stay in school, and kept an eye on his actions.

Everything is almost the same as the original trajectory.

The first thing Zhou Qi did when he returned to school was to enter the Room of Requirement to repair the broken disappearing cabinet. He didn't know magic, and naturally he didn't know how to repair it. However, the alchemist found the damage traces of the disappearing cabinet, and used Alchemy restores it to its state before it was damaged.

When he stepped into the disappearing cabinet again.

Push the door out and appear in the basement of the London villa.

Chapter 376 Chapter 18 Mental Power - Casting Materials

"Daily Prophet: Second invasion of Gringotts, discredit of the Wizarding Bank."

Owl messengers were busy traveling between the British Isles, and a large number of magic newspapers were printed and delivered to every wizard.

Although Gringotts wanted to stop the spread of the news, the commotion this time was too great.

As the only bank in the wizarding world, it was invaded twice in a row. The wizards in the wizarding world had to think about whether they really should store their coins in this bank full of flaws.

In order to restore the reputation of Gringotts.

The goblins could only humble themselves, and invited the greatest white wizard - Dumbledore.

"Professor Dumbledore, please help us catch this damn thief!"

The goblin chief followed closely behind the white wizard.

When these goblins with their nostrils upturned and only Jin Gallon in their eyes were so humble and embarrassed, the white wizard snickered in his heart, but kept a sad and sad expression, and comforted the goblin leader.

"I can only do my best."

Accompanied by the goblin, the White Wizard came to the deepest part of the Gringotts Vault.

He saw a Ukrainian ironback dragon chained around its neck.

This huge dragon curled up its body in horror, with its head buried under its wings.

Dumbledore already knew what was going on.

The villain who stole the treasury used some magic to hypnotize the goblin employees, and also used transfiguration to brand the proud dragon with a shadow of fear... This dragon still lacks scales on its back, and the injuries have been stopped by the goblin magic Living.

"It's useless!"

The goblin president hated: "The Ukrainian Ironback has lost its pride and aggression, and cannot undertake the duty of guarding the treasury. We can only look for new substitutes!"

Dumbledore nodded.

He took out the elder wand from his baggy wizard robe, and walked slowly to the dragon.

The giant metal hand made of rock and soil still maintained its incomplete shape. Dumbledore tapped the giant metal hand with his wand. This giant hand with metallic luster turned from a dead thing to a living thing. In the mind of the white wizard , paste it in front of you.

Dumbledore is the best transfiguration master.

He focused his eyes on the giant hand, looking for traces of magic, his face slightly serious.

Being able to transform rock and soil within 20 feet into metal, and imitate shapes at will, such a profound attainment of transfiguration is definitely not inferior to him.

But the problem is that few people in the magic world can use transfiguration to this extent.

And the only few people who were either imprisoned in Nurmengard or had no need to steal Gringotts.

Dumbledore felt that he had overlooked something.

He observed carefully.

Suddenly found.

There is an essential difference between the mimicry of the giant metal hand and the metamorphosis technique. Under the giant hand, a circular pothole appears on the ground, as if the filled rock and soil were pulled out, mimicking the giant metal hand.

but....

Dumbledore's wand tapped lightly on a fallen stalactite.

This milky white broken stone extended and expanded, turning into an iron sword.

Dumbledore looked at the iron sword, then at the round pit, with a look of confusion on his face.

White wizards who have not learned equivalent exchange can only judge from their own experience. Ordinary transfiguration can change a certain object into another object, regardless of the change in its quality.

This giant hand, when turning the rock and soil into a metal giant hand, drew out the corresponding mass.

"Professor Dumbledore, do you see anything?"

The goblin leader was keenly aware of the change in the white wizard's expression, and couldn't wait to ask.

Wizard White pondered for a moment, hiding this assumption in his heart, and answered conservatively.

"The intruder is an excellent transfiguration master, but the transfiguration he uses is magic that I have never seen before. Sorry, I can't find a clue."

The goblin president lost his mind and gritted his teeth.

It grabbed the goblin staff behind it violently, and screamed: "No matter what method you use, no matter how many Galleons you spend, you must catch this thief for me!"

Gringotts issued a reward order.

Those who know the clues of the thief will be rewarded with one hundred gold Galleons.

Those who catch the thief will be rewarded with [-] Galleons and enjoy the eternal friendship of Gringotts.

As soon as the reward order was issued, the entire magic world was shaken.

"Hey, [-] Galleons, these goblins really paid for it!"

Voldemort looked at the latest Daily Prophet with a very pleasant tone.

[-] Galleons is a large sum for a well-to-do pure-blood family. After the reward order was issued, not only the dark wizards who heard the news, but even the Ministry of Magic sent Aurors to launch an all-round search.

"Owner...."

Quirrell was very eye-catching: "Whether we want to join in the arrest, as long as we find clues, there will be a hundred gold Galleons."

"idiot!"

Voldemort said disdainfully: "Don't forget your purpose, the most important thing for us now is to get the Philosopher's Stone!"

He frowned at the news from the Daily Prophet.

Regarding the theft from Gringotts, the Dark Lord felt both joyful and disturbed. The joy was that he couldn't understand these proud goblin races at all, and it was quite relieved to see them frantic.

But the anxiety lies in whether Gringotts is safe or not?

Last time he was able to drive Quirrell to invade and steal the Sorcerer's Stone, this time there was another wizard invasion and steal the money bank.

Isn't it said that Gringotts is the safest place besides Hogwarts?

Voldemort was disturbed at the thought of his Horcrux being kept in the Gringotts vault.

Who can guarantee that someone will invade Gringotts again next time and take away his Horcrux?

We must get the Philosopher's Stone to resurrect as soon as possible, and move the Horcrux to a safer place!

.....

Two weeks had passed since the Gringotts heist.

No one has found a clue to the thieves, no one has focused on the Muggle music professor, neither wizards nor magical creatures have named Muggles as suspects.

Zhou Qi was teaching at Hogwarts safely.

Teaching during the day, returning to the London villa through the disappearing cabinet at night, conducting research on wizard blood and magic materials in the magic laboratory.

None of this research can be done at Hogwarts.

Whether it is researching the blood of wizards or dissecting magical plants, it is unforgivable in the eyes of conservative wizards.

"Bojinbok should have collected the information I need."

Zhou Qi used alchemy to erase the wasted materials, and rubbed the center of his brows with a headache.

After two weeks of intensive research, he vaguely touched the veins of the new magic system, but needed more samples to test his conjecture.

In any case, Upside Down Alley is a must.

Wearing a black wizard's vest, Zhou Qi came to Diagon Alley again through the Leaky Cauldron Bar. The atmosphere of this wizarding commercial street was as solemn as if water was about to drip out, and all kinds of wizards walked in the alley in silence.

Vendors did not dare to shout loudly.

Plainclothes Aurors looking around with suspicious eyes and Gringotts goblins hiding in dark corners can be seen everywhere on the street.

As long as someone moves strangely or has a panicked expression.

Aurors and goblins would grab him aside and torture him thoroughly. When they met a dark wizard with a gloomy mouth, they would pour a bottle of Veritaserum into his mouth.

The goblin misses the thief who stole from Gringotts.

Instead, it was the Aurors who caught many dark wizards who were criminals incognito.

Zhou Qi calmly walked on the street, carrying the Wuhen expansion suitcase, towards the reverse alley.

A young plainclothes Auror stopped him, glanced suspiciously at his dark wizard attire, and said seriously: "Sir, please take off your hood and cooperate with our investigation."

Zhou Qi stopped, and slowly took off his hood, revealing the blond and blue-eyed British face inside.

"can I help you?"

The Auror frowned slightly as he looked at this strange face.
