Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth

With the addition of the treasure of Moria, Smaug's body can finally be completely buried in the mountain of treasure.

Smaug was not satisfied with all this and looked at Dui with burning eyes.

"Master, please take out the mithril! I know those dwarves must have given you some, and I can already smell it!"

Mithril is far more valuable than gold, so Smaug would naturally not let it go.

When Dui heard this, he rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

"You are born in the Year of the Dog!"

Then he took out the dozen boxes of mithril crafts and mithril ore that Bahrain had sent.

Seeing this, Smaug's eyes lit up and he swept them to his side with his tail.

This is something more precious than gold, so he must take good care of it!

Then his eyes continued to stare at Dui.

This time, Dui did not do as he wished and pushed his head away.

"Don't even think about it. I have use for the rest. I can't possibly give it all to you."

Upon hearing this, Smaug knew that Dui had made up his mind, so he could only retract his head with some disappointment, buried his head in the treasure, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Seeing this guy throwing things away after use, Dui's mouth twitched. Too lazy to argue with this stupid dragon, he turned around and left the cellar.

Then Dui sent the basilisk Herpo in the space box back to the secret room.

Hailbo exerted a lot of effort in the battle with the fire demon, and even his skin was burned by the flames. He needs some time to recover.

However, there was a lot of food for the giant spiders in the secret room, enough for Helbo to recover.

After the basilisk Herpo was settled, all that was left was a huge petrified statue of the "Water Watcher".

Being petrified by the basilisk, ordinary spells cannot break it at all, and a potion made from mandrake is needed to restore it.

Dui simply left it in the space box and disposed of it after making the potion.

Then he went to the laboratory and took out the body of the Fire Demon.

Looking at this huge body that was as charred as lava, ugly and twisted, and exuding a smell of sulfur, Dui's eyes lit up.

After all, this is the body of a Maia. Even if it is a fallen Maia, it is still a demigod-level existence.

Such existence is of great research value.

On the chest, Dui also found some red crystal fragments, which were the fragments left when the divine spear Aegros pierced the heart of the fire demon.

Dui collected all the fragments without leaving a single one and stored them in a crystal bottle.

This is the core fragment of the Fire Demon. Dui dare not waste it at all and plans to use it to experiment with its effects later.

Chapter 176 Flame Creatures

Dui took out the mithril box containing the flame crystal.

Just by opening the lid, a wave of heat came out from inside.

The flame crystals inside emitted extremely high temperatures, like red-hot crystals, turning the space in the box into a high-temperature furnace, and the air was distorted as if it was burned.

Feeling the temperature around him rising rapidly, Dui hurriedly covered the mithril box again.

Fortunately, the mithril box became extremely heat-resistant after forging, otherwise if it was made of other metals or stones, it would have melted long ago.

However, before covering it, Dui took out a small piece of flame crystal.

Although it is only a flame crystal the size of a baby's fist, it releases heat of thousands of degrees Celsius.

For a moment, the spacious laboratory seemed to have entered the hot summer.

Dui tried to place it on a block of iron, and the iron was quickly burned through.

When placed on thick stone bricks, the bricks also cracked and melted, turning into lava.

Finally, it was placed on the body of the Fire Demon, and then nothing happened.

What surprised Dui was that the body of the Fire Demon had turned into lava since his death, and especially after the magic crystal was taken away, it turned into cold and hard stone.

But after placing the flame crystal on the body of the Fire Demon, the part of the Fire Demon that touched the flame crystal gradually softened.

This softening is not caused by the high temperature of flame crystallization melting, but by restoring its activity and making it elastic.

Dui's eyes suddenly lit up.

Such a change was beyond his expectations.

The activated Flame Demon's body has become more researchable.

He couldn't resist his curiosity and opened the mithril box again. He used his wand to double the space inside and then stuffed the body of the Balrog into it.

The flame crystals in the mithril box released a temperature high enough to melt the hardest metal instantly, but the fire demon was not burned when he entered it.

Instead, the whole body regained its vitality, with flames burning all over the body, as if it had come back to life!

Dui was also frightened, but he felt relieved after confirming that the fire demon did not come back to life.

Seeing that the Fire Demon was intact in the flame crystal and had become more active, Dui simply put it together with the flame crystal.

The Fire Demon is essentially an elemental body condensed from flames and shadows. The longer it dies, the more the fire element in its body will dissipate, and eventually it will turn into a pile of worthless stones.

Now that he can be preserved in the flame crystal, Dui is naturally delighted.

The Fire Demon's body has regained its vitality, and the Fire Demon's blood, like magma, will flow out from the wound on its chest.

Dui collected them and put them into another mithril bottle, adding a fire crystal the size of a grain of rice to prevent it from solidifying and turning into petrification again.

He looked at the Balrog's blood in the bottle and was very curious.

This should be considered divine blood. I wonder what effect it will have?

He did it as soon as he thought of it. Duit went out unexpectedly and specifically looked for some experimental subjects.

Among them were the common birds, reptiles, lizards, snakes, and so on, with a few orcs and wargs, and trolls.

He tried to inject the blood of the fire demon into the experimental subject and observed the changes.

The result is either being burned into a pile of ashes or exploding to death.

Obviously, these experimental subjects could not withstand the high temperature of the fire demon's blood, which was like magma.

Until Dui remembered the fragments of the Fire Demon's Heart that he had collected.

He started experimenting again.

Dui looked at the lizard in front of him and tried to implant a bit of magic crystal fragment the size of dust into the lizard's heart.

Then observe carefully.

After being implanted with a magic crystal fragment, the lizard did not react at first.

As time went by, Dui began to wonder if the debris was too small to work.

The lizard began to turn red, and as a cold-blooded animal, its whole body became hot.

Upon seeing this, Dui injected a drop of the Fire Demon's blood into the lizard's body.

The lizard began to roll over in pain, struggling constantly, and gradually became dying.

Then suddenly his whole body was ablaze with flames.

Just when Dui thought the lizard would be burned to ashes, the lizard suddenly jumped off the test bench, rushed towards the burning fireplace not far away, and then plunged into the flames.

Then a scene that surprised Dui appeared. The lizard was not burned to death. Instead, it underwent a transformation in the flames, becoming colorful and burning with flames.

The lizard stayed in the flames, looking comfortable, and emitting magical fluctuations belonging to a magical creature.

Dui was very surprised to get such an unexpected result.

The lizard, which was originally just an ordinary creature, transformed into a magical creature after being implanted with a fragment of the Fire Demon's heart and the Fire Demon's blood.

He walked to the fireplace and observed the lizard in the flames with great curiosity.

The lizard obviously remembered Dui. It tensed its body alertly and sprayed a small spark at Dui.

Dui waved his hand to block the flames, looked down at it, and chuckled, "Yo, it seems you still hold a grudge, little guy?"

Then he snapped his fingers and floated the fire lizard out of the flames, ready to take it to the test bench for further research.

But unexpectedly, once it left the flames, the fire lizard became listless, the flames on its body gradually died out, and it became weak.

Dui was surprised and sent the fire lizard back into the flames.

The salamander recovered and became full of energy again.

After trying a few more times, I was sure that the fire lizard really could not leave the flames.

The longer you leave, the weaker the salamander becomes, and eventually it will die.

Seeing this, Dui simply summoned a flame, wrapped the fire lizard with the flame, and moved it to the experimental table, thus avoiding the fire lizard's death from weakness.

Dui used his magic wand to continuously test the fire lizard and discovered that it had indeed transformed into a magical lizard that could only live in flames!

The fire lizard's attack power is not high, and the flame it spews out is only a small cluster, which can be extinguished even by ordinary people.

However, Dui was not disappointed. The unexpected birth of a new magical creature was already a surprise.

He used a syringe to draw a little blood from the salamander and preserved it, then returned it to the fireplace flame.

And seeing that there was only one salamander, Dui simply decided to find it a companion.

So he followed the same method, using the fragments of the Fire Demon's heart and the Fire Demon's blood to transform another lizard into a fire lizard.

Looking at the two fire lizards in the fireplace flames, after some contact, they actually started to make a fuss.

Dui was a little dumbfounded by this scene.

But then I began to look forward to it again.

If the fire lizard can reproduce, then his hard work in the experiment will be worthwhile.

Afterwards, Dui no longer paid attention to the two salamanders who were busy producing offspring and continued with the experiment.

The fire lizards would die if they left the flames anyway, so he didn't have to worry about them running around or setting the room on fire.

The unexpected birth of the salamander made Dui look forward to the next experiment.
