Chapter 179 Purchase
Meka Anders glanced at the first of the three choices and quickly moved away.
This thing is of little use to him, and he is not an expert on magical animals, so he gave it to him. At most, he could use it to cope with this year's magical animal examination.
He set his sights on the other two options with some interest.
The second option actually brings two things, one is 'retrieving objects from the air' and the other is 'casting spells without a wand'.
The function of "retrieving objects from the air" is actually not very great. According to the description, it is probably like picking up a cup or a pen. It is useful, but most of its use is for showmanship.
"Wandless casting" seems useless, but in fact it can save lives at critical moments.
Just imagine, when the fighting between the enemy and us is fierce, the wand is taken away, or more simply, it is broken directly in the battle. Generally faced with this kind of situation, basically the best outcome is to surrender. If the other party does not accept it, , that is a green light sent to the head.
So this is something that Meka is really interested in.
As for the third option, part of the magic learning results is simple and clear, which is to increase your current magic level by one liter.
With luck, I can bring 'Transformation Magic' and 'Ordinary Magic' to the same starting line, no longer partial. Of course, no matter how lucky you are, if you raise the Transfiguration level to a higher level, you can overcome all kinds of magic with one force and just rely on your special skills to make a living.
The other "innovative curse idea" is vague, but based on the reviews, Meka feels that this curse idea should be quite powerful, perhaps not as good as Professor Snape's "Shadow's Blade". "Inferior.
After all, this was created by a talented professor. Judging from Ahvaz’s experience, he was almost immersed in the academic study of magical animals for the rest of his life. But even so, he also obtained the Defense Against the Dark Arts from the Brazilian magic community. Lifetime Achievement Award in Magic, and as mentioned in the options, he is also an expert in spells.
The only regret is that this thing is still an idea. In other words, Ahvaz has come up with this innovative magic framework, but sorry, you have to fill in the parts of the framework yourself, but this is understandable, he is addicted to magic. Animals cannot help themselves.
"Study the effect of Xiu Xiu's blood on the production of rust remover..." Meka looked back at Ahvaz's last wish.
Although he has returned everything the teacher taught him, if he is not wrong, this should be a chemical problem. Just use hydrochloric acid to solve it. Why make it difficult for others to smell it?
But there is a way,
Ahvaz must use Sniff for surgery.
"To study Sniff, the blood must remain active enough and cannot be separated from the body for too long. Then we need to have a Sniff first..."
…
On the second day, as soon as the spells class was over.
Meka squeezed out of the classroom with the crowd and looked from the corridor.
Under a clear blue sky, a hut lay quietly on the grass. A sloppy little man was at the door of the hut. He smiled. He was so far away that Hagrid's large frame became a little man.
Meka didn't even bother with lunch. She took some potions she made to treat trauma as gifts and ran to Hagrid's hut.
Although Hagrid has no shortage of gadgets related to these magical animals and is willing to give them to children like them, to put it bluntly, he always asks Hagrid for things and feels guilty if he doesn't return the favor.
"What are you doing with these?" Hagrid stroked his beard, made a serious face, and said something that seemed to be a scolding, but after a while he was touching the bottles of potion with great joy.
He carefully stuffed bottles of potions into the pockets of his moleskin coat, welcomed Meka into the hut, and gave him a warm welcome.
Meka looked at him busy, shook his head and smiled, asked him to sit down and chat for a while, and then spoke:
"Hagrid, I actually have something to ask you for help this time."
"Hi~" Hagrid waved his hand, patted his big belly that had just eaten a lot of stone cakes, and said, "If you want to help me, just ask, I will definitely help you."
Meka pondered for a moment and said: "I am researching some potions related to sniffing blood, and I may need a sniffer. I know you have many friends with magical animals, and I hope to borrow one from you."
"Sniff?"
Hagrid opposite seemed to be in trouble. He wrinkled his face, touched his forehead, and said:
"This really stumps me. I do have a few sniffing friends, but a friend I met in a tavern some time ago borrowed them all from me. It will probably take three to five months to get them back."
"Is that so..." Meka frowned, but it was a coincidence that it happened to be borrowed.
He touched his chin and asked again: "Can't you send one back in advance?"
But Hagrid shook his head, "He is a magical zoologist. Last time he told me that he was planning to study sniffing habits and publish a book. I know him well. Before he completes this task, he will lock himself in No letters will be received in the house."
The road here to Hagrid was broken, which surprised Meka.
When he was thinking about whether to ask someone in Diagon Alley or somewhere, Hagrid said again:
"If you need it urgently, I can ask you where you can buy it." He scratched his head, "But don't have high expectations. I heard that this little thing is very popular, so it's probably not easy to buy. arrive."
"Okay, thank you."
Meka sat for a while longer, then stood up to leave.
Not long after, he returned to his dormitory, wrote a letter asking to buy Sniff, and sent it to Eva in Knockturn Alley.
You can't just count on Hagrid. After all, he has his own things to do, and he even became their magical beasts professor this year.
"I don't know if I can buy it. If I can't buy it, it might be three to five months later..."
Meka thought to herself as she released the owl Hedwig and watched it fly into the clouds.
…
Meka was not idle for a few days while waiting for a reply.
He was a good hand at making potions, but when it came to academic research on magical animals, experiments related to sniffing blood, and how to write research reports, he had to learn from beginning to end.
To this end, he spent all day long in the library and read a dozen related books, such as "Experimental Procedures Related to the Blood of Magical Animals", "Format for Writing Academic Reports on Magical Animals" and so on.
Although he has experienced too many wizards' memory washes and the recent improvement of his body caused by the basilisk blood, his mind is many times clearer than when he first entered school.
But after reading it, I felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark. I really had to read too many books at once, and my brain was a little unable to move.
But after all the hard work, I have gained a lot these days.
After reading a lot, he had a clear understanding of the verification experiments to be done in Ahvaz at an extremely fast speed, and even had a certain understanding of the entire academic research field of magical animals.
When she returned to the dormitory that day, Meka heard the window slamming, and when she saw it, Hedwig was back.
Meka hurriedly stepped forward, took off the letter from Hedwig's feet, and opened it to see that it was indeed Eva who had replied.
"I am very happy to reply to you, dear friend... In the past two days, I have asked people to go to Knockturn Alley and Diagon Alley to buy and sniff, but they could not be found. Later, I found a friend in the United States who claimed that he could Find me a Niffler, but it will take time..."
"It's still a bit long..." Meka frowned.
Although this was better than the three to five months with Hagrid, it was not much faster. The letter said that the round trip would take at least two months.
…
Hagrid's Hut.
Hagrid was boiling a pot of water and making himself a cup of honey water. As he was enjoying it happily, there was a bang outside the door, which startled him and caused him to spill the honey water.
He put the cup down and looked out the window. An owl spread its wings and flew away.
"It turns out it's a letter..."
Hagrid picked up the rag and wiped the honey water from his beard, walked out and opened the letter left on the window.
"Oh?" Hagrid stroked his beard and smiled,
"I didn't expect that there is a Niffler at Tabor's place. It should arrive in a few days. Tell Meka about it. He should be very happy..."
This Tabur was also a friend he made while drinking.
Hagrid put the letter in his pocket, happily took another sip of the sweet honey water, and suddenly thought:
"I don't know how many days it will take to arrive. Let's wait until we get there. It can be considered a surprise for little Meka."
