Chapter 305 Chen Bin Also Buys a Magic Wand

While he was thinking hard, the door of the shop suddenly opened. Fujiwara stuck half of his head out and said embarrassedly: "Professor Chen, please come in and find out."

"What's the matter?" Chen Bin came into the shop, but saw the old man looking for a wand with a sad face.

"Wait a minute, I have something else. My grandfather brought it back from the East." The old man didn't even turn his head and continued to look for it.

Chen Bin's eyes turned to Fujiwara, but Dongye Heng, who was standing next to him, said first: "The wand maker measured our arm length and head circumference and searched for a long time alone, but still couldn't find a wand suitable for us. Then, he seemed to be possessed, muttering to himself while desperately looking for some oriental wand."

(▔ω▔): "You'd better wait a minute. This old man is very stubborn. I believe any wizard can find the most suitable wand in his shop."

"I don't mind whether it's suitable or not, as long as it's a wand." Dongye Heng said helplessly.

"Me too." Fujiwara smiled bitterly, "We are not so squeamish. We have always been practicing with our favorite magic tools."

"Huh?" Chen Bin seemed to have heard something extraordinary. He had never deeply understood the world of Eastern monks, mainly because martial arts practitioners have always been discriminated against by orthodox monks.

Since they wanted to discriminate, Chen Bin was too lazy to ask about these details.

Seeing that Chen Bin seemed interested in this, Fujiwara and Dongye started talking about it.

The Eastern monks have never relied on external objects. They regard the practice of the body as the proof of the Tao, and external objects are only auxiliary. For example, Dongye's peach wood sword and Fujiwara's folding fan are a kind of items that concentrate the output of true energy. There will be no big difference between having them and not having them. At most, it will bring inconvenience to the use of magic, including but not limited to slower casting speed, smaller power, and closer distance.

Therefore, in their eyes, without a magic wand, most of the means of casting are lost. This is a side door. It is not that you control the magic, but the magic wand restricts you.

This is a battle of civilizations, each with its own different ideas.

Western wizards can learn magic faster this way, and they can also roughly learn many miscellaneous subjects before they reach adulthood, such as the introductory principles of elixir, transformation, refining, divination, and divine calculation.

Chen Bin was stunned for a moment when he heard this ancient name, and then he realized that they were talking about the various subjects of Hogwarts.

Eastern pure-blood families will teach the foundation of spells from an early age, which is the "Magic Learning" in the West. Monk children from the secular world are usually taken away by the sect when their blood awakens, that is, 6-12 years old. Fujiwara caught the last train and was discovered by magic when he graduated from elementary school.

Monks only learn the principles of magic before the age of 16, laying a solid foundation for a comprehensive understanding of the essence of spells. It is strictly forbidden to learn those miscellaneous things before passing the test.

After the master recognizes that their foundation is solid enough, they will learn other unique skills of the sect, such as divination, refining, spells, etc., but the categories of concurrent learning are impossible to be as many as Hogwarts.

In other words, the East emphasizes specialization and regards magic (spells) as the foundation of monks. Casting spells with bare hands is a common entry requirement, but there are only one or two advanced concurrent courses. It is definitely more about quality than quantity.

Needless to say, the West, the education system of Hogwarts is a template for the entire West.

As the three chatted, Mr. Ollivander suddenly said in surprise: "Found it!"

He dragged a black iron box out of the deformed floor secret door and lifted it to the counter with all his strength.

"Hehe, my grandfather traveled to the East and met some "weapon makers" and worked together to make a batch of wands that spanned Eastern and Western civilizations."

The old man rubbed his hands excitedly, took a few deep breaths, and then opened the iron box.

"Try this one." The old man raised the red wand with both hands with shining eyes, but he suddenly pulled it back when Dong Yeheng was about to touch it. "No, this wand has no thunder attribute, only a strong and fierce quality."

Then he handed over several wands, but he was not very satisfied.

"Young man, close your eyes and imagine the wand you want." The old man placed more than a hundred wands flat on the counter, his tone trembling with mystery.

Dongye Heng was confused and turned his head to look at Fujiwara Aihua waiting for translation.

He followed the instructions, and suddenly three wands on the counter trembled slightly.

This time, Chen Bin was also interested.

The old man picked up the three wands and asked Dongye Heng to test them one by one.

The first one shot lightning at the shield, which instantly dented the shield.

The second one, the shield was directly penetrated, and there were scorch marks on the floor.

There was no third one, because the old man determined that the second one was the most suitable.

He used magic to eliminate the marks on the ground and carefully put the wand into the box.

"Sir, I want to try the third one." Dongye Heng said.

Under Chen Bin's translation, the old man still reluctantly handed over the third one, as if Dongye Heng's request was very rude.

Dongye shot lightning at the shield again, this time not only piercing the shield and scorching the floor, but also leaving a burnt hole as big as a bowl on the floor.

Fujiwara opened his mouth in shock, looking at the black wand with a look of reverence.

However, Dongye Heng frowned and whispered: "Too violent, disobeying orders and randomly extracting true energy."

"Do you feel it?" Mr. Ollivander said with satisfaction: "The best is the one that suits you. Shenghui will give you ten gold galleons."

After listening to Fujiwara's translation, Higashino Tsune took ten gold galleons and said, "This junior has learned a lesson."

Ollivander was stunned for a moment, and then made an awkward gesture.

"Sir, what is the material of the wand he bought?" After Fujiwara finished speaking, Ollivander said he didn't understand a word and had to ask Chen Bin to say it again.

[Note: I will skip the translation question in the future. It’s funny the first time, but disgusting the second time. 】

"The core of the staff is Raijoo's mane, and the staff's body is Ryukyu Sotetsu. The staff is 15 inches long, which is perfect for lightning and sharp magic."

The three of them wondered whether they understood what they were saying. After Ollivander carefully explained the characteristics of wood and magical animals, Fujiwara was the first to react: "They are thunder beasts and cycads. The ancestors of the old man have been to my country."

"That's wrong! You can't buy such a rare material for even a fraction of ten gold galleons." Dongye was taking out his money bag, intending to make up the difference, but was stopped by Chen Bin.

"The Ministry of Magic will subsidize the price difference for residents to purchase wands, but the condition is that each wand must be registered in the file, and you can only own one wand at a time. You are exchange students and have the same discount, so accept it."

When Chen Bin was acting as the temporary director, he could not help but look up a lot of unknown internal information. Of course he knew that this regulation was to reduce the difficulty of tracing cases and make it more difficult for people with insufficient conditions to hide their identities.

Next, Fujiwara Aihua was also selected by a red wand through the same method. Its core was the hair of the Zombie King, and the ghost tree (Locust Tree King) was used as the wand body, which could better control the shikigami.

"Professor Naama, don't you choose one?" Ollivander looked at Chen Bin with keen eyes, as if to say: Come and buy it! Buy it! Only a wand made by House Ollivander is suitable for you.

Chen Bin smiled bitterly and said: "You have also seen my wands, they are the only ones suitable for me."

After saying this, he showed two wands, making Ollivander take a step back in fright. "So they belong to you, no wonder, no wonder. Don't lend them to anyone in the future. Don't you know they are very dangerous to that girl?"

Chen Bin laughed awkwardly. Did he dare to say that he lent Kate the wand so that he could use all his energy to blast away any potential enemies?

"Teacher Chen, give it a try!"

"Senior, it doesn't hurt to give it a try."

Mr. Ollivander did not measure Chen Bin, but encouraged him with his eyes to directly activate his magic power to give it a try.

Chen Bin was actually a little curious, so he closed his eyes cooperatively and unlocked the tolerance of several levels of the Heart-Cleaning Spell. If he had to choose, he would choose a wand suitable for his extreme spellcasting.

Who knows...

"Tick-tick-tick..."

"Ah! Not good!"

"Senior, stop quickly!"

Chen Bin opened his eyes. Not only did all the oriental wands on the counter fall down, but all the boxes containing wands on the shelves fell down.

∠(д)/: "Mr. Ollivander, I didn't mean to do anything. Do you believe me when I say I didn't do anything?"

"I believe it." The old gentleman came back to his senses, took a breath, and then waved his magic wand to restore the goods to their previous positions.

"Wait, I have a wand for you." He jumped into the secret door on the floor and rummaged for a long time. Slughorn opened the door and poked his head twice, and finally waited until he got back out.

"This is what's best for you."

Chen Bin took the wand and rarely felt the texture of metal. It was a nine-inch-long, thin metal wand.

"This is?" Chen Bin was confused.

"Try it," Ollivander encouraged with a smile on his face.

Chen Bin used the disarming spell on the shield.

There is no red light.

Chen Bin became even more confused. He turned to look at the old man, but the old man smiled and said, "It's still not as powerful as before."

Chen Bin immediately understood what he meant, adjusted the Heart Clearing Mantra to 7.01 times, and said angrily:

"(╬义)Expelliarmus!"

A bunch of vague red silk threads brushed against the shield, and then there was a soft "bang" sound like a fart, and then nothing happened.

Fujiwara and Higashino looked at each other in astonishment, indicating that the baby could not understand anything.

Chen Bin understood, but felt that the metal wand was getting hot and obviously could not fire the second shot.

"Is this interesting?" Chen Bin put down his wand, his face full of disappointment.

"Please two customers go out first." Ollivander continued to smile.

The two knew that they were going to tell a secret, so they quickly walked out of the store to guard the door.

"Do you feel it? By using magic through it, it can absorb the mania and violence in the master's body. The effect depends on the strength of the injected magic." Ollivander got straight to the point without going around any circles.

"How many of these wands do you have?" Chen Bin asked hopefully.

"One, and you can't get the materials together." Ollivander took out a list from the wooden box. Chen Bin opened it and was speechless immediately.

The body of the staff does not contain any wood or magical animal materials. It is made of dozens of rare magic metals. The minimum weight is measured in tons! Melt out all the metal impurities, then inject the remaining two hundred kilograms of raw materials into the mold, micro-carve hundreds of space magics, and then embed a now-lost crystal as the core to permanently add a levitating spell to the weight of the wand. Constantly at 14.5 ounces, less than a pound.
