The Transformers at Hogwarts
Chapter 199 Opportunity
Chapter 199 Opportunity
Allen was not surprised by this result. After all, the wand was invented when the use of ancient runes was most prosperous, so it is normal for some ancient runes to be in it.
A magic wand is a tool used by wizards to perform magic. It is a long wooden strip with an inner core. The inner core is generally a magical material taken from a magical creature. There are many different woods and inner cores available. The inner core, length, etc. are different and unique.
This is knowledge that every wizard knows, but Allen is very curious about a question:
Why is it that stuffing magical materials into an ordinary stick can greatly reduce the difficulty of wizards casting spells?
Moreover, the wand also has the ability to choose its owner. If you use a wand that does not belong to you, the effect of magic will be greatly reduced. How are these functions realized?
Perhaps wizards from wizarding families have become accustomed to this and take it for granted. Maybe Muggle-born wizards have a sense of awe for the symbol of magic, the wand, and they don't explore the problems in it.
But as a man of science and engineering, Allen wants to get to the bottom of everything he is interested in. He really wants to understand the underlying principles of the wand, especially when he has mastered some of the original knowledge of magic in this world.
Allen carefully observed the ancient runes on the inner wall of the fracture. Based on his knowledge of ancient runes, he could tell that most of these ancient runes were ancient runes related to the location.
He couldn't help but fell into contemplation. When casting magic with a wand, the wand must be pointed at the target after the movement. It seems that this ancient rune is used to locate the target.
The ancient runes on the inner wall of the wand that he could observe were arranged in a format that he had never seen before. More importantly, every ancient rune was connected to each other, which was an important feature of the rune circuit.
The wand is also a magic item, so it makes sense to engrave some ancient runes on it.
I just don't know what the function of these magic text circuits is.
However, the fracture of the wand only shows a short section of the inner wall, and there must be many rune circuits in the inner wall of the wand.
Allen wanted to split the wand directly to take a good look at the rune circuit inside, but he stopped at the last moment.
He suddenly felt that this was a good opportunity
The next day, Allen finally saw Mr. Ollivander at noon. He still looked so energetic, and he didn't seem to be tired from making wands for a long time.
He was sitting at the dining table enjoying his lunch, holding a copy of the Daily Prophet while he ate.
Allen sat next to him and reported the store's income for the past two days.
"In the past two days, a total of 3 wands have been sold in the store, all of which were purchased by Hogwarts students with educational discounts. The total income is 21 Galleons."
Mr. Ollivander waved his hand lightly, "You can do the math. I don't like to take care of these things. I trust you very much."
The dining table was quiet again.
Allen wanted to say something more, but at this time Mr. Ollivander spoke again.
"Sirius Black escaped from Azkaban!" he murmured.
"What?" Allen was unfamiliar with this name.
"Sirius Black, I bought my first magic wand here in 1971, with an oak body, twelve inches long, and a core made of phoenix tail feathers. In a blink of an eye, 20 years have passed, and so many things have happened in these 20 years He came to buy the wand as if it happened yesterday." Mr. Ollivander fell into the memory, and some tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
This was the first time Allen saw Mr. Ollivander like this, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
Mr. Ollivander quickly noticed Alan's embarrassment, "Sorry, it's easy to get stuck in memories when you get old." Mr. Ollivander wiped the corners of his eyes.
"You don't need to apologize, I'm just curious about who Sirius Black is." Allen said quickly.
"Look at this newspaper and you will understand." Mr. Ollivander folded the newspaper in his hand and handed it to Allen, "What a handsome young man he was at the time, I can't even recognize him now coming."
Allen reached out to take the newspaper and put it on the dining table. He noticed that Mr. Ollivander had finished his meal, and it was estimated that he would be making wands in a while. He had to hurry up.
"Sir, a friend of mine accidentally broke his wand. I would like to ask you to help see if it can be repaired." Allen said carefully.
"Oh?" This topic really aroused Ollivander's interest, his eyes sparkled with excitement, "Which wand is where?"
"It's here with me." Allen went back to his room, took out his wand, and carefully handed it to Mr. Ollivander.
Ollivander looked at the broken wand, frowning tightly, he stroked the wand gently with his rough fingers
"Thirteen inches, ash wood, unicorn hair, its owner doesn't love it very much, and neglects to maintain it." Ollivander made a conclusion, and then he showed a thoughtful look, "This stick The wand seems to be the first wand Arthur Weasley bought when he came to Hogwarts more than 30 years ago."
Mr. Ollivander had a good memory of every wand he sold.
Allen didn't expect Ron's wand to be bought by his father. It seems that before Ron got the wand, the wand had been dumped by the members of the Weasley family several times.
"I remember every wand I made very clearly. The broken part of this wand should be carved with a positioning rune circuit. This rune circuit is broken, which will cause the spell to occasionally fly in the opposite direction."
Allen couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard the word "magic loop".
"Later, the magic tape was not glued firmly. If the rune circuit happens to be connected when waving, then the spell can be cast successfully. If it cannot be connected, the spell will fail."
"In this case, I used this magic wand forcibly to cast a spell, causing irreversible damage to the magic wand. This magic wand is no longer worth repairing. Even the unicorn hair inside has been damaged, and its value has been greatly reduced. "Mr. Ollivander sighed helplessly, he regretted that his work had become like this.
At this time, Allen also thought of the various accidents caused by Ron's wand during the year, and it seemed that they could match what Ollivander said.
He couldn't help but start to sigh again about Mr. Olled's professionalism, that he could guess such a thing from just a small scar.
