Hogwarts professor in Marvel

However, he specifically learned some flesh and blood magic to strengthen physical fitness, as well as... burn life.

In Lockhart's eyes, burning life is actually a trump card to save his life.

When facing a powerful enemy, you can simply burn your life in exchange for powerful strength.

As for Carter, if Lockhart wanted to make her return to youth directly, the price he would have to pay was too high.

but......

Lockhart was still able to restore her body to its peak condition.

The core is to use the flesh and blood magic of burning life. To be more precise, it is to make the life transformed by burning life burn.

Burning life in exchange for a moment of power.

The burning of life is a continuous exchange for the peak state.

Generally speaking, the stronger the strength, the greater the consumption of life force, after all, their peak state is really strong.

But for Carter, he is just an ordinary person, whose physical fitness is at most slightly better than others.

So, relatively speaking, the consumption has been reduced a lot. In addition, with the supplement of magic potions, the consumption is further reduced.

Despite this, Carter was originally expected to live for five years, but now if he maintains this condition, he will only live for about a year at most.

However, for Lockhart, this was not a difficult problem to solve.

All you need to do is replenish enough vitality, and Lockhart knows several ways to obtain vitality.

He is even working hard on one of them and believes that the results will be revealed after some time.

Limited time is also an important way for Lockhart to influence Carter.

Lockhart just couldn't believe it. The two of them were in love, and she knew that her man could live for decades while she could only live for another year.

Now that there is a chance for the two of them to continue loving each other until old age, can Carter give up?

Even if Carter really gives up, can the captain give up?

The thought flashed through his mind, and Lockhart looked at the work of art in front of him that he had created with his own hands with admiration.

I have to say that young Carter was really very feminine.

With fair skin, a high nose bridge, rosy lips and short wavy hair, she looks particularly capable and elegant.

If he puts on a military uniform, he will look very heroic.

Then Lockhart extended his wand again and gently touched Carter's brow.

The next moment, a light golden dragon magic mark quietly emerged and sank into the forehead.

At the same time, sensing the feedback from the brand, Lockhart nodded slightly.

This magic was very successful, and now only the last step is left.

Just now I was worried that casting flesh and blood magic would affect Carter's soul, but now I don't have that worry anymore.

Seeing the two people behind still showing off their love, Lockhart shook his head helplessly, waved his wand lightly, controlled Carter's body, and floated behind him.

Then he slowly walked up to the two of them.

"Steve, I'm borrowing Ms. Carter for a while. I'll give you a complete version of Peggy Carter in a while." Lockhart said jokingly.

Steve looked at the familiar face behind Lockhart, his expression trembling, not knowing how to express his emotions.

Finally, he said with great gratitude: "Thank you, Lockhart!"

Seeing this, Lockhart smiled and nodded.

Then he joked to Carter's soul: "Ms. Carter, return to your body now. Then you can talk to the captain about your true feelings."

Carter saw the familiar face and looked back at the young captain again, as if recalling things from his youth, closing his eyes as if trying to calm his inner excitement.

After a while, he nodded at Lockhart, walked towards his body step by step, and entered it.

Heavy! Sore!

But... full of energy, that's the feeling of being young.

Carter closed his eyes and keenly felt the pleasant air and smell around him, as well as the flowing blood and vigorous energy.

Even his thinking speed had obviously returned to its peak state.

The brain thinks quickly, quickly recalling what has happened in the past few days, sorting them out one by one, and prioritizing them.

Subtle problems that had not been noticed before quickly emerged in my mind, and I judged a series of flaws solely by subconsciousness.

Including...some loopholes in the words Nick Fury used to persuade her.

I haven't experienced this kind of comfortable feeling for a long time, and it can be said that it was a great enjoyment.

soon...

call!

Carter exhaled, opened his eyes, and looked at Lockhart with gratitude.

Then, he looked at Steve standing beside him and a bright smile appeared on his face.

He stretched out his energetic arms and hugged Steve tightly.

And then... a passionate deep kiss!

Lockhart watched the two of them force-feed him dog food, smiled, stepped back a few steps, and whispered, "Gold coins!"

Instantly, the house-elf gold coin appeared in front of Lockhart.

"Gold coins, take them to their own rooms later."

Lockhart thought for a moment, then added: "Forget it, just find them a room."

Well, he wouldn't disturb the good things between the captain and Carter.

"Okay, master." The gold coin replied loudly.

The sound and strange appearance of the gold coins attracted the attention of Steve and Carter.

Seeing this, Lockhart directly reminded: "Steve Carter, I won't bother you anymore."

"If you have any problem, just tell Jinbi and he will meet your needs."

"You two should take a rest first. We haven't seen each other for many years. I'm sure you must have a lot to talk about."

"Well, three days later, the three of us will talk about this in detail."

After saying this, without waiting for the two to reply, he waved his wand, drew a portal, and left this room full of the smell of dog food.

When they saw Lockhart leave, they looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

"Carter, this time, let's make up for the dance we owe you."

..............

New York Temple.

Casillas and Morin were sitting at a table, chatting.

There were three teacups on the table, two of which were filled with tea, enjoyed by Casillas and Morin.

In addition, there is an empty teacup, and corresponding to it is an empty chair.

It was clear that Casillas and Morin were waiting for someone else.

At this moment, suddenly......

A red flame halo portal appeared and Lockhart stepped out of it.

Looking at the two friends sitting in front of him, waiting for him, Lockhart sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and said in a deep voice: "Casillas, Morin, what do you think about what Master David said?"

Chapter 213 Enemies from Kamar-Taj (Second update, please subscribe)

"Lockhart, the potion business must continue. This is the consensus between the two of us." Casillas said softly.

Morin beside him nodded in agreement and said, "We can't give up just because of a few words from them, or do what they say."

"This will only make them more aggressive, and even other mages will look down on us."

"Kama-Taj isn't a big deal, but it's not small either. Some things will soon be known to all the mages, and by then, its reputation will be ruined."

Hearing this, Lockhart also nodded and said, "Okay, everyone understands what I mean. I mean the same as you. I can't give up the potion business, and I can't give up the Universal Book Cafe."

Then, Lockhart asked the two of them with some confusion: "Casillas, Morin, I have only been in Kamar-Taj for a short time, and I don't know much about Master David."

"Could you please explain it in detail?"

After hearing Lockhart's request, Morin thought for a moment and said, "Lockhart, I asked someone about leading the wizard and his friends."

"I found that most of them are alchemists and potion makers. Basically, it can be said that they have monopolized the potion and alchemy market in Kamar-Taj."

"It's just that they act more covertly. After all, the Supreme Mage is here, so they don't dare to be arrogant. They just communicate privately to fix the price of potions or magic items within a certain range. In this way, they can obtain a large amount of magic resources through the technology they have mastered."

"They will try to win over every alchemist or potion maker to ensure their status is not affected."

"And you, Lockhart, have just joined Kamar-Taj and you have come up with so many novel potions. This has a huge impact on them."

At this point, Morin also smiled bitterly and said, "This is my fault for not investigating it in advance. I even thought of introducing Master David to you."

Hearing this, Lockhart nodded slowly, thought for a moment, and asked, "I have a question. How does Kamar-Taj generally handle disputes between mages?"

Casillas pondered for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, regarding disputes between mages, if it is difficult to determine who is right or wrong, then they will fight."

At this point, Casillas hesitated, as if he didn't know whether to say something or not.

Seeing this, Lockhart was a little confused and asked, "Casillas, if you have any questions, just tell us so we can solve them."

Hearing Lockhart's question, Casillas sighed and said in a deep voice: "Lockhart, actually, a fight is the best solution for us."

"I understand your fighting ability, but the problem is that the opponent may not fight head-on, but attack you from behind, which is more troublesome."

"For example, they use certain connections to restrict others from trading with us, or spread rumors about our potions."

"Or, Lockhart, if they tell some wizards to stop going to your Vientiane Book Cafe, what can we do?"

Hearing this, Lockhart felt a little headache. Since ancient times, soft knives have probably dealt with more than hard knives.

Especially now that we are in Kamar-Taj, with the Sorcerer Supreme in charge.

The existence of the Supreme Sorcerer can be said to have both advantages and disadvantages.

On the good side, the other party doesn't dare to be too arrogant.

But on the bad side, Lockhart and his men couldn't do anything behind the scenes.

Don't forget that the Supreme Sorcerer has the power of time. If you want to use some tricks in private, you may not be able to escape the eyes of the Supreme Sorcerer.

There was no problem with everyone fighting and tussling with each other, but no danger to life was allowed. In this situation, Lockhart could only block the opponent's soft knife with his head.

As if he knew Lockhart's troubles, Casillas comforted him: "Lockhart, don't worry."

"The situation is actually not that bad now. I am here to manage the New York Temple, so they don't dare to be so arrogant. Morin also has some ascetic friends here."

"Our business may be affected, but if it continues, the other party will be helpless. At most, business will be sluggish for a period of time."

"It's just that you need to pay more attention to this aspect."

Hearing this, Lockhart nodded, indicating that he understood what Casillas meant.

I and the Wanxiang Book Club are the main targets of the other party.

On the one hand, I am the provider of the potion, and the other party only needs to deal with me, which is equivalent to solving the problem from the source.

On the other hand, Wanxiang Bookstore now has a large footprint, and I have only joined Kamar-Taj for less than two months, so its influence is relatively general.

It is extremely easy for the other party to target you.

I am now the weakest link among the three of us.

After all, his foundation was not solid, unlike Casillas who guarded the entire New York Temple. Moreover, as a new mage instructor in Kamar-Taj, his influence was not weak.

And there is Morin. As a librarian, he has many friends. Even Master David had a good relationship with him before there was a conflict of interest.

Therefore, David and his group will not easily target Casillas and Morin, as this would be a thankless task.

Therefore, it is very likely that the other party will attack him directly.

While his roots are still weak and his stems are not firm, Lockhart puts himself in his shoes and thinks that if it were him, he would be feeling a bit sorry for himself if he didn't take action.
