Chapter 351 The Home of the Elder Wand
( ) In the vast and endless starry sky, there is a planet named Earth. Its blue appearance and flowing clouds are refreshing just by looking at it.
And just in the northern hemisphere of this planet, to the northwest of the continent called Europe, the British Isles are located here.
Our majestic and quaint Hogwarts Castle is located in the northern Scottish Highlands.
There are deep and stable emerald green mountains, blue sky that is within reach, sometimes there is the sound of water in the mountains, and sometimes there is the whimpering of the sea breeze in the distance.
Perhaps sometimes, the desolation here makes people feel lonely; but most of the time, we will sing for this freedom.
However, in such a beautiful and moving environment, on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle, in the headmaster's office with clean windows...
Facing a kind old man, a green young man stretched his hand towards his waist.
He touched the column-like rigidity, which slowly extended upwards. With the movement of his hand, a thick and long object crossed the small round table and appeared in front of the old man.
The old man was slightly taken aback, and then, while showing surprise on his face, he took back the slender stick in his hand.
this is--
I made this by referring to some ancient documents and combining some modern wand science, the young man explained, I originally wanted to restore as much as possible the long staff in the ancient magic world, but the details I can't find much information at all...
Of course, these two are obviously Maca and Dumbledore.
And on the small round table between them, lay a dark green staff that was almost the same height.
On the body of the staff, many densely arranged ancient runes can be vaguely seen. It's just because Maca still doesn't know a lot about the rule runes, so he hasn't been used rashly.
Only on the dusty stone inlaid at one end of the staff, Maka engraved a rule rune representing cooling.
It is certainly true to say that Maca has referred to a lot of materials during the production process...
But what is the biggest reference? Of course, it was the magic staff that he only saw for a moment when he was given the Book of Sin by his future self.
Although about this matter,
Maca still has some doubts that have not been resolved, but the real achievement of this staff is undoubtedly the impressive glance at the beginning.
...Is this wand any different from a magic wand? Dumbledore asked with great interest.
Upon hearing this, Maca picked up the staff and injected magic power, and immediately the runes on the staff lit up one by one.
This is actually just a trial work. There are two characteristics—
As he spoke, he lightly paused his staff. And just after this pause, flames curled up from the top of the staff, entangled with each other and turned into a ball of fire.
One is the preset spell... For example, this 'blazing flame' does not require the guidance of spells and will, and can be formed automatically by consuming a fixed amount of magic power.
This is different from the silent spell, it is completely 'automatic'. Maca explained emphatically, However... because the default spell is constructed by relying on the rune on the wand, at my current level, I can only It’s all about building some spells with simple magic structures.”
Oh? So, as long as you use this staff, even wizards who don't know spells can use it? Dumbledore asked in surprise.
Theoretically, that's the case, Maca nodded. My original plan was to let the Squibs use spells...
Oh—that's good, very good! Dumbledore agreed again and again.
However, there are still many unresolved problems right now, Maca said frankly. Squibs can't use their will to mobilize their own magic power, but if they want to make a staff that can automatically absorb magic power...
He thought for a while, and couldn't help but smiled bitterly: The Squibs have to run around carrying a tree...
It's okay, it's still under study! Don't worry! Dumbledore said with a kind smile, So, what's the second feature of this staff?
Save mana!
Speaking of this, Maca looked particularly happy.
Actually, this is an idea I came up with not long ago. He said happily, The growth rate of wizard's magic power is too slow, and the means to make magic power grow rapidly are extremely rare.
So I thought about it - since I don't know how to increase the magic power, why not think about it from another angle?
That sounds interesting and a good idea...
In the morning sun, Maca and Dumbledore conducted a detailed study on this kind of staff that looks like an antique but may actually be brand new.
This academic exchange finally came to an end when Maca suddenly realized that he still had a lot to do.
Finally, under Dumbledore's gentle gaze, Maca hurriedly left the principal's office. And Dumbledore's old wand was not handed over to Maca in the end.
Dumbledore was still sitting by the window, looking lightly at the clear sky outside, with a relaxed smile on his lips.
This child Maca has indeed embarked on a brand new path! He rubbed the old wand in his hand, and said with a light smile, Perhaps, he really has the possibility to use magic to change the world...
They were also candidates selected by Rowena, but Dumbledore and Maca took completely different journeys.
……fair enough.
After a long time, Dumbledore closed his eyes slightly, as if concentrating on enjoying the intoxicating warmth of the morning sun.
On the small round table in front of him, the broken Elder Wand lay quietly beside the black tea cup. Inside the hollow body of the stick, a smear of gray ash floated leisurely towards the sky outside the window along with the breeze.
...
In the afternoon of the same day, the black market.
Maca and some members of the Order of the Phoenix gathered in the emptied potion store warehouse, carefully checking the main points of this operation.
Because the goal this time is to sneak into the underground of the Dark Spirit Pavilion wizard union, so the first thing to be sure is that they can't make too much noise.
As one of the largest buildings in the black market, the Dark Spirit Pavilion not only has a large number of employees, but also many guards.
Unlike the Gringotts on the surface, the Dark Souls has a deeper level of cooperation with wizards.
Compared with Gringotts, which has wizard guards outside and goblin guards inside, the Dark Souls Pavilion, where wizards and goblins are mixed, is actually more conducive to the implementation of infiltration operations.
However, the number of guards and the tightness of patrols in Dark Souls Pavilion are much higher than those on the walls of Gringotts.
After all, among the businesses involved in the Dark Spirit Pavilion, there is an item of hiring a team. In order to maintain this business for a long time, the defensive strength of the Dark Spirit Pavilion is of course indispensable.
...In short, there shouldn't be a big problem with sneaking in.
However, after the infiltration, there will definitely be a battle. At that time, whether it is the return after the operation is completed, or the retreat after the operation is blocked, you will need to face a problem of 'coordination'.
Regarding this issue, our previously agreed plan can only be used as a reference, and the actual situation will always change...
In the warehouse, everyone gathered in a circle, and Lupine reiterated the possible details of various actions.
Everyone here - including Maca, is listening carefully. After all, this is bound to be a very difficult operation, and the focus is on cooperation.
Maca's personal ability may have an effect that cannot be ignored. But even so, while everyone is acting together, if something unexpected happens...
Even with Maca's strength, it's impossible to save his companions where he can't see them.
After Lupine recounted the infiltration plan, Maca took out the prepared package, which contained two bottles of healing potions for each person, as well as a lot of fairy potions.
It's a lot of work to make, and I can't prepare too much... He greeted everyone, However, there are many Xianyin potions—be careful when using them, and don't do anything to highlight your own existence. the behavior of!
After distributing the potions, Maca thought for a while, then took out another potion bottle and handed it to Lupine.
You are the calmest here, this is for you—in case something goes wrong and you need a wide range of cover, smash it to the ground!
What is this? Lupine asked curiously.
It's a kind of magic dust that can obscure vision and detect spells, and can also weaken the power of ordinary spells to a certain extent... Maca explained, Of course, don't expect to weaken too much.
This is a good thing!
Lupine nodded again and again, but Maca glanced again reluctantly.
Don't use it indiscriminately. The materials for making this kind of magic dust are not easy to find. The biggest use is in the research of potions...I also use a little less!
Oh...well! Lupine shrugged. I'd try not to use it if possible.
We still need to use it when it's time to use it. Our life is much more precious than it! Maca gritted his teeth secretly and waved his hand.
After a while, after confirming that everyone was ready, everyone started to pretend. This is a compulsory course in Auror training, and it is also true among members of the Order of the Phoenix who often perform covert operations.
There were a total of thirteen people in this operation, and eight of them retained the image of wizards; while the remaining five people, under the effect of compound decoction, turned into five short goblins.
Exercise, adapt to your body as soon as possible, and then start working!
Maca, who also turned into a goblin, waved her hands and feet, jumped up and down, and said in a sharp goblin voice.
Everyone watched Maca bouncing around, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Stop laughing, Maca said helplessly, especially the four of you—where do you think you can see?
