Chapter 199: Nicholas Flamel’s (Junior) Toolbox
To be honest, this batch of materials was much more valuable than Fang Linyan imagined because he didn’t encounter much danger when he was hunting. After some inquiries, he found out that the difficulty wasn’t about getting these casting materials but finding them.
For example, the cow mosquito was often nocturnal and appeared in steep valleys. These valleys were often cloudy and inaccessible, so the difficulty of hunting it could be imagined. If this guy was not attracted to the Westminster Abbey Area by the unusual energy resonance, then even 10 Fang Linyan were hard to catch 1.
After getting the money, since Fang Linyan was here, he also went to Borgin & Burkes in Knockturn Alley to see if there was any good news from the greedy domestic goblin, Bone.
As soon as Fang Linyan entered the door, he heard Bone saying cheerfully in an exaggerated opera tone,
“Gosh, you’re here at last! I’ve searched many ways and I’ve found a treasure! Trust me, there’s nothing like it in all of Great Britain! Trust me, even the devil will be jealous of your luck!”
After finishing speaking, Bone took out an old-looking box from the side. The box had mottled textures and nicks, and the surface was a little wet. It looked like it had just been rinsed.
He opened it and saw 6 grids for placing tools, but 5 of them were empty. There was only 1 file in there.
Then Bone turned the box over, pointed to a vague signature, and said excitedly,
“Do you know whose box this is?”
Fang Linyan leaned over to take a look and read it out softly,
“Nicholas Flamel, bought in February 1341.”
After reciting the name several times, Fang Linyan was shocked and said,
“Nicholas Flamel! It’s him? The powerful alchemist who invented the Sorcerer’s Stone!”
Bone immediately laughed and said,
“Of course! This box is Nicholas Flamel’s toolbox. You like it? 200 Galleons for such a treasure are not too much right!”
Fang Linyan was immediately moved. To be honest, a toolbox left by such a legend must be worth a fortune, not to mention a hundred Galleons, even 10,000 common points were worth it… However, to be safe, he used [Reconnaissance] at the box.
As a result, its attributes emerged successfully.
Nicholas Flamel (Junior) Toolbox
Place of Origin: Grocery store in Littel Town, Roussillon (France)
Equipment Rarity: White
Equipment Slot: Luggage
Material: Steel, Wood, Small Shimmer Shards
Weight: 1.4 kg.
Required Conditions: Strength at least 7 points and spirit at least 10 points.
Special Effect: {Legendary Afterglow}. The ordinary tools placed in it are protected from being destroyed by time-space turbulence. It advances the special effect of the enchanted tool. (Please note that it is an advancement, not an upgrade. Intuitively speaking, it is similar to obtaining additional bonus attributes after the skill is upgraded to LV4)
Evaluation: There is no doubt that Nicholas Flamel was the most famous alchemist in the Middle Ages. He had almost single-handedly laid the foundation of occultism in Europe in many planes! He is basically the Newton of occultism. For such a legendary figure, even a crappy toolbox he used in his youth has a certain value.

After seeing this series of prompts, Fang Linyan immediately noticed the word ‘junior’ in the name! He immediately realized that this domestic goblin “Bone” was really treacherous to the bone! He seemed to be planning to extort him again.
Luckily, he had the god skill, [Reconnaissance], that he saw through this guy’s trap, otherwise he would really be scammed again.
Under such circumstances, although Fang Linyan liked the box very much, it was impossible for him to be scammed willingly. This thing was not a hard currency, and the demand was very small. If he couldn’t get rid of it, he would suffer a big loss. Therefore, there was plenty of room for negotiation.
Therefore, after getting the first-hand information, Fang Linyan remained calm, but in fact, he had already made up his plan. After looking over and over for a while, he said,
“Something is wrong.”
Bone immediately grabbed the box back and said angrily,
“Hey, what’s wrong! Are you doubting the credibility of domestic goblin? And not one, but our entire social circle of domestic goblins! If you don’t give a reasonable explanation, then the wrath of all domestic goblins will rain on you like the thunder of Zeus.”
Fang Linyan said calmly,
“Mr. Bone, although my memory is not very good, I have some understanding of the life of Master Nicholas Flamel. He should be born in 1330 right?”
The 2 small eyes of the bone immediately rolled, and he said slyly,
“Who remembers these inexplicable things! It has nothing to do with what we’re talking about, like bleach has nothing to do with a cat’s tail!”
Fang Linyan said lightly,
“Oh my friend, I think you should be honest, otherwise you can only see my leaving back. In fact, I have become friends with Mr. Thermaplugg, if you are really a well-informed domestic goblin, then you must know his good friend Old Tok. I’m actually quite close to them. Thermaplugg also promised to help me get a set of magical tools.”
After listening to Fang Linyan’s words, Bone’s face looked as usual, but his heart seemed to be stabbed twice. He trembled a few times.
He knew Thermaplugg. The stubborn dwarf was 1 of his idols because Mr. Thermaplugg had tens of thousands of cute Galleons in his safe!
Bone was also very clear that Thermaplugg had a powerful and old magical hat. It was a priceless treasure handed down from his family, and he would never show it to outsiders easily. This magical hat was Old Tok!
“That means… this humble and stupid guy in front of him really didn’t lie. Damn it! Then this box that I spent 5 Galleons to acquire will soon be exchanged for money! Oh no! I absolutely can’t let this happen!”
As soon as Bone thought that the 5 lovely Galleons were about to leave him, he felt a chill in the depths of his bones!
Looking at the back of Fang Linyan who had turned away, Bone snapped his fingers, turned into a puff of smoke and appeared in front of Fang Linyan. He said with a smile on his face,
“Wait, wait, dear Mr. Wrench. I admit that you’re right. Master Nicholas was indeed born in 1330.”
Fang Linyan smiled and said,
“Then, the box also clearly states that it was actually bought by Master Nicholas Flamel in February 1341. Master was only 11 years old, so… my friend, even if it is really the work left by the master, it is only the work left by the 11-year-old master. 200 Galleons is really too expensive for it.”
Bones sighed and said,
“Okay okay, for the sake of us being friends, I’ll give you a 50% discount, just 100 Galleons.”
Fang Linyan said helplessly,
“Please! What can an 11-year-old master do! He just got out of the bed-wetting stage; he was still crying for mommy at this age. If you ask for such a price again, I will really think that you are insulting my IQ, and I will leave right away.”
“So I’ll give you a very fair price, 2 Galleons, they’re yours as long as you nod. I promise this pair of Galleons are a couple. You give them a soap and you’ll get a bunch of Galleons in 10 years!”
After Bone heard 2 Galleons, his whole body trembled violently and said in despair,
“Are you trying to kill the Bone? Yes, you must be trying to me. You might as well just take my life!!”
After the 2 negotiated, Fang Linyan used 4 Galleons to get the box, but he promised that if Bone could bring him the rest of Nicholas Flamel’ tools, he would pay for every one of them at a high price of 10 Galleons.
