Alchemy Laboratory

"There is no fixed method for encrypting the Ancient Runes, otherwise the so-called encryption would be meaningless?"

Everyone will come up with their own encryption method.

In fact, it's not difficult as long as a set of rules is established.

Bell explained.

Of course, setting up a set of rules that are difficult to break is not an easy task.

"No! I want to learn my Gege's encryption method!"

Having the same opportunity as her Gege, Shanna must have lost her mind to do all sorts of messy things that are unique to her.

"Okay, I'll teach you when we get back."

Bell affectionately ruffled Shanna's hair.

"But you must remember, you must never tell anyone else about this encryption method, not even your parents."

As the saying goes, a secret is only a secret if only one person knows it. But when two people know it, it ceases to be a secret.

To minimize the risk of the encryption being cracked, Bell wouldn't even tell his own parents.

Especially his own "uneducated and incompetent" father.

As the business grew and the Galleon earnings increased, his father's spellcasting ability plummeted, a perfect negative correlation.

What? You mean if Shanna finds out, then two people will know?

Just kidding, Bell and her sister are practically one. They're counted as one person.

Hermione, who was standing to the side, looked left and right with envy and jealousy, but at the same time, she made up her mind to go back and study the Ancient Runes to the death, and she must improve her level of Ancient Runes in a short period of time!

Incidentally, this is the umpteenth time Hermione has had a similar thought.

Besides Ancient Runes, her targets also include Potions, Curses, Transfiguration, Arithmancy, and so on.

However, a human day only has 24 hours, and even the greatest magic cannot give a wizard special treatment in this regard.

Therefore, it is only natural that Hermione, with limited time and energy, has not yet been able to successfully tackle any of them.

Finally, accompanied by a dazzling blue light, the mechanism on the laboratory door was deactivated.

Silently, the door opened inward, revealing a corridor to the three of them.

The corridor walls were made of silver-white metal, and the floor was covered with a bright red carpet. The soft light illuminated the corridor, yet miraculously, it was not dazzling.

After searching curiously for a while, Hermione couldn't find any source of light. It seemed the light must be generated by magic.

Following behind Bell, Shanna and Hermione finally entered the laboratory they had been curious about for so long. The two girls touched and looked around, acting like they had ADHD.

Bell glanced speechlessly at his sister and girlfriend behind him, who were still trying to stay quiet. It was just an ordinary corridor; what was the big deal?

After walking down the corridor for a while, Hermione was surprised to find that it seemed to have no end. They had been walking for some time, but it was as if they hadn't moved at all.

Looking back, I saw that the space behind me had also turned into an endless corridor. There was no sign of the door at all.

Suddenly, a sense of fear washed over Hermione. She felt as if she had been abandoned by the world and would be walking down this endless corridor forever.

Hermione took two quick steps and grabbed Bell's hand.

Feeling the warmth emanating from her palm, a sense of security arose, slightly suppressing the fear in her heart.

Bell squeezed Hermione's hand tightly. He knew that the deathly silence in the corridor could be incredibly oppressive for someone entering for the first time.

Fortunately, it was just an illusion; the corridor not only had an end, but it wasn't very long overall.

After all, this is just Bell's personal laboratory, with only a limited number of experimental projects, so it doesn't take up much space.

"Alright, we've arrived. This is the Alchemy laboratory."

Bell suddenly stopped. He reached out and knocked on the wall beside him, and a large door suddenly appeared on the smooth, mirror-like surface.

Following Bell through the gate, Hermione, who had been on tenterhooks, breathed a sigh of relief at the scene before her.

All that scary talk from Bell turned out to be nothing special.

Now that Hermione was relaxed, she leisurely surveyed the laboratory.

The laboratory is not large, with cabinets lined up against the walls.

Through the glass on the cabinet door, one could see that it was filled with all sorts of magical materials. There were metal ores, plant solutions, and even the bones and scales of living beings.

In the center of the laboratory, there was a large table with various tools arranged on it.

Hermione didn't know what those tools were for, but they looked really powerful.

"Gege, what is this?"

Unlike Hermione, who was reserved and hesitant to touch anything in the lab, Little Shanna, bursting with curiosity, Accio the lab like a little bird as soon as she entered.

Suddenly, the little girl stopped in front of a cabinet.

She opened the cabinet door and took out a stick-like metal object from inside.

Seeing what Shanna was holding, Bell had an urge to cover his face.

With so many things here, how did Shanna manage to find that one in particular?

"That's Sword Embryo, it's... well, it's a semi-finished product."

"Sword Embryo?"

Shanna curiously examined the ' Sword Embryo ' in her hand. She had initially thought it was a stick.

"Ahem, Shanna, that was just a small experiment. It's still a long way from being a finished product. Let's look at something else."

Look at this, Large-scale Force Field Generator. This is what I'm preparing for the Magical Yacht my father is building.

It not only generates a powerful Defense Barrier, ensuring the cruise ship can sail smoothly in any sea area and weather, but also possesses the effects of the Disillusionment Charm and the Muggle Repelling Charm, effectively preventing collisions with Muggle vessels.

With a wave of his hand, Bell opened a cabinet beside him, from which floated a huge instrument.

"Really? Let me see!"

Compared to the oddly shaped "Sword Embryo" in her hand, the item recommended by her own Gege was much more appealing to Shanna.

Without any hesitation, the little girl threw the ' Sword Embryo ' in her hand aside and rushed to her Gege's side like a gust of wind.

Seeing Shanna standing in front of the force field generator, curiously studying the structure of the instrument and the Ancient Runes on it, Bell, having successfully diverted his younger sister's attention, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He put his hands behind his back and subtly waved them, sending the ' Sword Embryo ' that Shanna had casually tossed on the ground flying back into the cabinet.
