Chapter 963 Normal academic exchanges have ended
The three top stick-making masters in the industry just met, and naturally there was another round of business flattery.
"Master Gregorovitch, I heard that you collected a very powerful wand in your early years and conducted a series of research on it. After so many years, I believe you must have achieved a lot of results, right?"
Although Gregorovitch was the oldest of the three wand-makers, he was in the best spirits of the three, especially after hearing the words "powerful wand".
He looked radiant, as if he had suddenly become several decades younger. "Of course, this wand contains extremely powerful magic. Over the years, I have always wanted to make an identical one, but I have failed every time."
After decades of research, it has not been able to be replicated. It seems that this magic wand is really as powerful as the rumors say.
Ollivander and Merovingian were both very interested in this, but Gregorovitch was reluctant to say more and changed the topic to the wand testing ceremony.
Although there has never been a situation where there are four warriors in the previous Triwizard Tournament, some small accidents still happen occasionally.
For example, in the middle of the game, the warriors' magic wands suddenly stopped working.
In order to prevent such minor accidents from happening, the warriors' wands need to be tested in detail before the official competition to ensure that they are fully functional and perform well.
This Triwizard Tournament is destined to be one that will be remembered in history, because not only did the Goblet of Fire select four warriors, but the people responsible for testing the wands were three famous wand makers in Europe.
The desks in the small classroom were soon pushed to the back of the classroom, freeing up a large open space.
Three desks were placed in the middle, connected to each other, with a long piece of velvet covering them, and five chairs behind the desks.
Bagman and Batty Sr. are setting up some video recording equipment provided by Wayne Enterprises, and the wand detection ceremony will be released as a preview before the game begins.
Perhaps the equipment was too complicated; they fiddled with it for quite some time but were unable to install it.
"Ludo, didn't you bring the instruction manual?"
"Don't worry, Barty. I've memorized the entire instruction manual and will be done with it soon."
Ten minutes later, Bagman was still fiddling with the equipment.
Old Batty's face didn't look good, "Ludo, are you still not well?"
"It's coming soon."
It's already class time, and if we continue like this it will probably be dark.
Bagman suddenly stopped. "How about I go back and bring the manual?"
Old Batty's face darkened, "I'll go with you."
It would definitely take a lot of time to go back and forth, so Dumbledore quickly stopped the two of them.
"Ludo, Batti, the maker of the equipment is in the castle. I'll have someone call him over so you don't have to travel so far."
Both Bagman and Old Batty were a little confused.
"Okay, Albus, but I need to go to the bathroom first."
"Wait for me, Barty, I need to go to the bathroom too." Bagman followed old Barty out of the classroom.
The efficiency of the British Ministry of Magic really opened the eyes of Madame Maxime and Karkaroff.
The matter of the Goblet of Fire has not yet been investigated, and the recording equipment has failed again.
Dumbledore returned to the two headmasters. "It's almost time. I plan to call our warriors over as well. What about you?"
Durmstrang, like Beauxbatons, has no classes today, and Madame Maxime and Karkaroff think it's time to bring the warriors over.
The three headmasters left the room together, while Madame Maxime and Karkaroff walked out of the castle and returned to the carriage and boat respectively.
Dumbledore walked slowly into the entrance hall.
There were only three great European stick makers left in the small classroom, and he couldn't help but worry whether normal academic exchanges between the three would turn into conflicts of ideas, and then escalate to the level of quarreling.
Just then, Colin, who had no classes in the afternoon, came down the stairs.
He had an old Muggle camera hanging on his chest, and it seemed that he was planning to take some scenery photos outside the castle.
If Dumbledore remembered correctly, this third-year student seemed to have a good relationship with Harry.
"Mr. Creevy, could you go to the Potions classroom for me and take Vincent, Harry, and Draco to the classroom at the back of the entrance hall?"
The principal gave the order personally, so how could a student dare to refuse?
Plus, Colin was a big fan of Harry, so he naturally agreed.
However, he was still a little scared about interrupting Snape's class.
Dumbledore smiled slightly and looked at the Muggle camera on his chest. "It's like this. The warriors want to record a promotional video, but there happened to be some minor problems with the equipment. Sorry to bother you, Mr. Creevey."
Colin nodded excitedly, "I understand, Professor. I'll bring them over now."
Dumbledore watched his back as he strode towards the dungeons, and decided that he had enough courage to interrupt Snape's class.
I had only been away for a while, so the three staff-making masters should not have started arguing yet.
But unfortunately, the normal academic exchange was over, because Dumbledore heard an argument as soon as he returned to the corridor.
"Grigorovitch, your idea is too extreme! A wand cannot only pursue power, but also its compatibility with the user should be the most important thing to consider."
"Come on! Ollivander, I admit that you are highly skilled, but what on earth are your ideas? The wand chooses the wizard? To put it bluntly, this is just an excuse. You simply don't have the ability to make a highly compatible wand!"
"Would you please stop bickering like children? We are one of the three largest—"
"Shut up! Merovingian!"
"Have you, young man, figured out the craft of wand making? All you do every day is add some fancy decorations to the appearance!"
Dumbledore quietly walked into the classroom and saw the red-hot Merovingian gasping for breath. He was probably planning some big move.
"Three Masters, can we--"
Gregorovitch seemed unaware of his presence. "Ha - Merovingian, what I hate most is people like you and Ollivander, who only delve into crooked ways. I don't even bother to be called one of the three greatest masters of Europe with you!"
Ollivander was so angry that his silver-white eyes were about to pop out.
"How are you better than us? Gregorovitch, you have been researching a wand for decades without any results. You must have made up this story!"
Dumbledore looked helplessly at the three wand-making masters who were arguing more and more fiercely.
There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. If you can't win in an argument, you will definitely resort to violence.
So before that, Dumbledore decisively drew out the Elder Wand to make the three masters' minds a little clearer.
"A pure heart is like water, and pure water is the heart—"
This is an ancient spell originating from the mysterious East. It is called the Calming Mantra or the Purifying Heart Mantra. It can prevent the person being cast from being affected by emotions and help them calm down quickly.
