The Big Boss Behind Hogwarts

"Okay," Nicole Lemay sighed long, "We know that you have your own opinions and many ways."

"But!" He fanned the plan book in his hand like a fan. "Now that I have seen the plan of the wand set, and have mastered the idea of ​​the wand set, how long do you think it will take me to make it?"

Moriarty suddenly found that the old man in front of him had become a three-point shameless seven-point shrewd businessman, "So, we are competitors now?"

"Of course." Nicole Lemay smiled and said, "My life for hundreds of years has been boring and boring. It's rare to encounter an interesting thing today. I have no reason to give up the opportunity to enjoy it."

"You seem to be in a good position to win. But I'm not bad, you know the gap between us very well." Moriarty meant something.

"If you mean the convenience provided to you by the British Ministry of Magic, the supply channel provided by the pureblood family, the assistance provided by Ollivander and Sgrahorn ... It is not a problem for me." Nicole Lemay walked slowly on the podium, a long-silent momentum emanating from his pace, making Moriarty focus.

Nicole Lemay paused, stretched out an index finger at Moriarty, shook it lightly, with a meaningful smile on his face: "As long as I say a word, people from all walks of life and even the entire French magic world will be at my disposal. , dispatched, and a lot of people are willing to be arranged by me."

A strong confidence radiated from Nicole Lemay's every move. Who hasn't been a teenager?

Perenel seemed to see Nicole LeMay in high spirits when he was two hundred years old.

At that time, it was the great geographical discovery of the 16th century. In the Muggle world, European powers developed overseas colonies. During this period, Nicole LeMay traveled around the world, harvesting a lot of wealth, accumulating rich experience, and even more lives in his hands. Can't count.

Perenel thought that Nicole Lemay would never show his edge again in this life, but he didn't expect Nicole Lemay to be serious in front of Moriarty today!

However, Moriarty was not intimidated by Nicole Lemay's aura, he smiled calmly: "I'm not referring to our connections, but talent!"

"Talent?" Dumbledore finally spoke. He didn't say a word before, but now he suddenly became interested: "That's an interesting statement, why don't we make a bet?"

"Bet?"

Nicole LeMay looked at Dumbledore with Moriarty.

"That's right, whoever makes the wand set first wins!" Dumbledore's eyes flashed with indescribable light.

"I don't agree!" Perenel's voice rose a few degrees. "Nico has the support of the French magic circle behind him, and Moriarty has the support of the British magic circle. Once the two of them set up a bet, no It is beneficial to the diplomacy of the wizards of the two countries."

"I think the two of them can drive the development of the magical world of the two countries, and can also handle the relationship between the two countries." Dumbledore pointed out this.

"Okay," Nicole Lemay decided, "I'm willing to make this bet with you, Moriarty! What's your opinion?"

"Nicole—" Perenel said displeasedly: "It's a bad thing for the French magic world to be opposed to the British magic world!

We are now professors at Hogwarts, and we used to be students and professors of Beauxbatons. What should the students do when two schools of magic are sandwiched in the middle? What do they think? "

"These are not problems," Moriarty said, with a firm tone: "The two professors agreed to come to Hogwarts to teach because of the space magic circle. This was decided before, no matter what the relationship between us is. will change.

As for the attitude of the students, this is both a challenge and an opportunity - as news of our gambling spreads, more people will pay attention and be willing to learn about alchemy, which is a good thing. "

"Very good," Nicole Lemay laughed, "I'm glad we can agree on this point, that is, you agree?"

Moriarty nodded, Nicole Lemay immediately stretched out his right hand: "If I win, as I said before - you have to worship me as a teacher and use your talent to contribute to alchemy."

Dumbledore's eyelids jumped, he didn't seem to have said this before.

Moriarty also stretched out his right hand: "If I win against you, you must continue to use the elixir of immortality and assist me in making the next alchemy props."

Dumbledore's mouth twitched, you're even more ruthless.

But Moriarty and Nicole Lemay said at the same time, "Deal!"

"Snapped!"

The two hands clapped heavily, and the bet was established!

Nicole Lemay took out a strange pen from the pile of alchemy props covered with black cloth, Perenel thoughtfully took out the parchment for him, and Nicole Lemay began to write more than a dozen letters at the same time!

Moriarty also had a solemn look on his face. Before leaving, he did not forget to tease: "Take the clock against the clock, Professor!"

Nicole Lemay replied without looking up, "It's a race against time!"

Dumbledore and Perenel shook their heads amusingly when they watched Nicole LeMay's fiery look and Moriarty's back as he left the secret room.

"You knew it early on, Dumbledore," Perenel said lightly, "Moriarty would not agree to our request."

"If you had made a bet with him in the morning, he would have agreed." Dumbledore's eyes were deep: "Now I'm looking forward to the unknown fate, how wonderful."

And after Moriarty walked out of the secret room, he came to the Room of Requirement for the first time, and he also began to write letters, to Lockhart, to old Flint, to the pure blood family, to his classmates and followers... …

As the letters were carried by owls and sent to various places, just after noon, the details of Moriarty's bet with Nicole Lemay were known to everyone.

Tonks, Marcus, Lilith, Leon, Jericho, and Penello are invited to the Room of Requirement.

Jericho's first words when he saw Moriarty were: "Bet with the greatest alchemist of six centuries, that's cool, sir!"

He swept away the irritability in the alchemy class and said with great interest: "We have to do something! We have to act! Sir, what do you need us to do?"

"Actually, I really need you to do a lot of things," Moriarty quickly assigned the task: "Tonks, you stay and be my assistant, we'll start with condensing runes.

Marcus, I'll give you the letters from Pureblood and the Ministry of Magic, find out which of them are still willing to support me - I'll see how they treat me after learning that Nicole Lemay refuses to cooperate manner.

Leon, I want you to collect the wand information from the students.

Jericho, write a letter to your father asking for his help in collecting wand information for wizards in America.

Lilith, take your people to Hogsmeade, I have asked Mr. Ollivander to go to Hogsmeade with his research materials on wands, and Sglahorn and Lockhart will be there soon. To Hogsmeade, I hope you can be the bridge of communication between Hogwarts and Hogsmeade.

——If you don’t know how to get to the secret passage, Leon! Send someone to take her there. "

The person named took action. Penello looked at everyone's busy scene, widened her eyes excitedly, and felt a little dazed at the same time. She was called by Moriarty for the first time, and she was a little at a loss.

"Oh, Penelope Clearwater!" Moriarty seemed to think of her, "Well... let me think about it, you can stay with me for the time being, and I will trouble you if you have anything."

"No trouble, no trouble." Penello hurriedly said, but Moriarty had already left. He went back to the dormitory and dug out a lot of potions, and found several potions that boosted brain power and replenished spirit. Gudu drank it.

Don't look at his light-hearted appearance, and even dare to point out the gap between Nicole Lemay and him, but in fact, he is not quite sure!

"Talent, talent!" Moriarty rubbed his temples, an anxious look appeared on his face for the first time: "Think, think! There must be some way to bypass formulas and runes and directly achieve the shape I want. State! Just like those alchemy props of Nicole Lemay, they can't all be created by Nicole Lemay after a lot of trial and error, there must be some way!

What is it? What exactly is it? Occult? mystery? Magic month, three-state transformation..."

Moriarty repeated several academic terms and walked out of the dormitory. The little snake in the common room was frightened when he saw his appearance, and hurried to tell the teacher.

Before he could go to the common room, he met Dumbledore, who was accompanying the Twelve School Directors to the Slytherin dungeon, and behind them were a large group of officials and reporters from the Ministry of Magic!

It turned out that ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ After the pure blood family received Moriarty's letter, Lucius and the school directors decided to publicize the gambling issue to the public. They joined the directors of the Daily Prophet. , engaged in a wave of marketing.

In just a few hours, the wizards in the British magic world were incited, and they all expressed their support for Moriarty to gamble with the French!

Seeing that the voices were getting louder and louder, the Ministry of Magic had to make an official statement through the Daily Prophet to support Moriarty on behalf of the British wizarding community.

For Dumbledore, this scene was something he was happy to see, so he readily agreed to the school manager, representatives of the Ministry of Magic, and representatives of the press to meet Moriarty.

Of course, it's not an interview, it's just expressing support for Moriarty on behalf of the British wizarding community, that's all.

After Moriarty learned about the ins and outs, he secretly thought that it was not good. What is it?

Originally, his bet with Nicole Lemay was weak. Nicole Lemay would definitely develop a wand set, it was only a matter of time, and Moriarty not only had to make sure the research and development was successful, but also shorten the time to ensure victory. .

So what he lacks the most is time!

But what about now?

Although he thought it would cause a sensation before agreeing to bet, the sensation came too quickly - the whole of England knew it before the afternoon Defence Against the Dark Arts class started!

Then it's not too long before the French magic circle knows about this.

Damn pure blood! Moriarty glared at Lucius secretly. The pure-blood family made a lot of money this time, but they accidentally pitted Moriarty.

Sure enough, the system's icy voice sounded: "It is detected that the host's current actions are extremely unfavorable to the ultimate mission. Please, the host, immediately calm down the heat of the incident and reduce the attention of the two countries' magic circles to the host."
