Travel from Hogwarts

Chapter 17 Harry Potter

Of course, there are more than three types of wand cores. Compared to the more than 200 kinds of magic trees, there are more than 3000 types of magical creature parts that can be used as wand cores.

Naturally, it is impossible for Master Ollivander to describe all of the more than 3000 kinds of wand cores, because a large part of these 3000 kinds of wand cores are items with rare magic power, also commonly known as waste wand cores, such as frog eggs. , the shed skin of snakes, etc. Although the parts of these magical creatures can also be used as the core of wands, the power of wands made from them is pitiful. No one will buy this kind of wands at all. They seem to only The collection value is left.

In addition to the three most powerful wand cores, Master Ollivander also focused on explaining to Drinker several other powerful wand cores, such as night rider tail feathers, thunderbird tail feathers, snake nerves, etc. , the wands made of this type of wand core also have their own merits, especially the nerves of snakes. This type of wand core can improve the reaction speed of the wand, and they are very cheap and very practical.

In this way, several more hours passed unknowingly. Drinker, who was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, did not feel tired at all. It seemed that he was influenced by him, and Master Ollivander did not feel tired either.

"Ding ding ding ding," just as the two people continued to immerse themselves in the knowledge of wands, the shop bell rang.

The sound of dinging also interrupted the two of them.

"Oh, it looks like someone is here, let's go take a look, Drinker," Master Ollivander stopped teaching. After all, this is still a wand shop, and everything has to focus on selling wands.

Of course, in addition to theoretical knowledge, observing wands choose their owners is also one of Drinker's apprenticeships.

"Okay, teacher," Drinker responded obediently.

"Welcome to Ollivander, you two, oh, Mr. Hagrid, and Harry Potter!" Master Ollivander and Drinker came to the lobby.

At this time, there were already two people standing in the lobby. I have to say that the combination of these two people was very strange. A short, thin and slovenly child and a tall, big and sloppy little giant.

"Hello, Master Ollivander," Hagrid was obviously a little embarrassed and looked a little nervous when he saw Master Ollivander.

"Oh, you are so tall! Sir," Drink couldn't help but praise. He was not just perfunctory. When I watched the movie, I didn't realize how tall Hagrid was, but now that I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that Hagrid is really majestic. , he is about nearly four meters tall and two meters wide. The moment Drinker saw him, he subconsciously thought of the idiom "Invincible". Besides, it is also his job to behave appropriately as a child. one.

"Thank you." Listening to Drinker's praise, our ranger was obviously a little shy. It seemed that no one had ever praised him so much, especially its appearance.

After Drinker finished speaking, he looked at the two of them silently. To be precise, he was watching Harry Potter, the real protagonist in the original book, a poor little man who experienced some extraordinary things every year.

When he looked at Harry, the other person was also looking at him. In Harry's eyes, this little boy was much better than the stinky guy he just saw at Madam Malkin's place. At least he didn't have that domineering attitude. Eyes.

"Are you Harry Potter? You look cool!" After looking at Harry for a while, Drink took the initiative to say hello.

In fact, Harry was not cool at this time. His clothes obviously didn't fit and were old and old. His hair seemed a little messy because he hadn't taken care of it because of running around these days. In short, he looked a bit messy. Decadent.But clothes and hair are secondary. The reason why Drinker would praise Harry without hesitation is because of his eyes. Harry's eyes are very bright and clear. They are very clean and clear, better than any other. Everyone's eyes must be clear.

"Thank you, thank you," it seemed like he didn't expect the other person to say such a thing. Little Harry was obviously at a loss as he rarely greeted his peers like this.

"Hello," facing Drinker's enthusiasm, Harry didn't know what to say for a moment, but Drinker had just praised him so much, so he thought for a moment and said hello.

"What a cute little guy. Okay, Mr. Potter, I know what you are here for. Calculating the time, it is indeed almost the same. Your parents bought their wands from me. The scene when they bought their first wand. It seems like just yesterday." After chatting, the home court was returned to Master Ollivander.

"Stretch out your hand, Mr. Potter. By the way, which hand do you prefer?" Master Ollivander started with his iconic opening remarks. Drinker has heard these words hundreds of times in the past ten days. , so I have already gotten used to it.

He felt that he, a cheap master, did this on purpose, because no matter who came, how tall or short he was, he would try many wands before he could succeed, so in Drinker's opinion, measuring the body was very similar. You're kidding, people do grow taller, and buying a wand is not buying clothes. Does this also measure your height?

Of course, Drinker only dared to think about it. If he really said it, he still wouldn't dare.

"Very well, take it easy kid, it's easy," Master Ollivander began again with his signature verbs as if seeing Harry being a little nervous.

"That's it again!" Drink couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and thought in his heart with a chuckle.

"Your father is a very good magician, and his wand is also a very good wand, mahogany, dragon's heart, eleven inches long, that wand is very good in terms of flexibility and strength, of course. , it is more suitable for releasing transformation spells," at this point, Master Ollivander turned his head and stared at little Harry with his deep eyes.

"Hahaha," Drink turned around, trying not to laugh, and here he comes again. He has seen this scene countless times in recent times. In the past ten days, Master Ollivander has seen this scene every time. A new little wizard will say a few mysterious words, and then look at the other person a few times. He is like an old magician who stuns each little wizard.

Of course, this is not Master Ollivander's bad taste. It is also one of his jobs as a master wand maker to make wizards respect wands. Moreover, what Master Ollivander says is not unreasonable. Many times , what he said still makes some sense.

For example, as he mentioned casually just now, Harry's father's wand has mahogany wood representing resilience and a dragon heart representing strength. It is indeed a very good wand, and it is also the kind of wand that will not hurt its owner.

"Your mother is different. She is a very gentle person. Of course, she is also very kind, so she chose wicker wood and unicorn hair, which is very friendly but not soft." Master Ollivander continued. .

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Harry's face already had an expression of admiration.

"Your eyes are very much like your mother's, as gentle and clear as hers," Master Ollivander continued, decisively. After saying this, Harry already admired Master Ollivander very much.

At this time, Drink also glanced at Hagrid a few times. He saw that Hagrid was also a little nervous at this time. His hands were tightly holding his pink umbrella, as if there was something hidden inside.

"Try this, Mr. Potter, made of sandalwood, with the heart of a fire dragon, pliable yet powerful," Master Ollivander took out a black wand and handed it to Harry.

Harry held the wand and waved it lightly, and a small flame flashed in the air, almost burning Master Ollivander.

"Sorry, sir," little Harry said, somewhat confused, and hurriedly put down his wand.

"No, it's not your fault Harry, this wand isn't for you, it's a bit too strong," Master Ollivander said with a slight smile.

Drinker was not surprised at all, but he remembered that in the movie he had seen, Harry Potter's first wand seemed to release a small whirlwind when he waved it, and broke a vase, but now it turned into a small flame. , he didn’t know if he remembered it wrong, because it had been too long, and he couldn’t remember it clearly.

"Try this one, cherry wood, unicorn feather, ten inches long, very soft," Master Ollivander then took out a second wand, a cherry wood wand with a touch of pink.

Harry took the wand and waved it again. This time there was no strong scene. The cherry wood itself represented softness, and the unicorn hair represented kindness. The combination of the two was simply named gentle.

This time, it was a very gentle breeze. The gentle breeze filled the whole room in a moment, and even Drink was tickled.

"No," Drinker thought to himself.

"This wand is not suitable for Harry. No, to be precise, it should be said that this wand is suitable for Harry. A kind wand is suitable for all wizards, but Harry needs and deserves better." Drinker analyzed rationally. After more than ten days of simple study, he also had some understanding of the wand.

"No, give me the child," Master Ollivander also said at this time, taking the wand back from Harry's hand.

Little Harry scratched his head. He felt that the wand was quite good and soft to the touch, but he didn't know why Master Ollivander took the wand back.

"Try this one, red oak, phoenix feathers, eleven inches long,"

"This one, black bakelite, snake nerve, nine inches long,"

"This one, rosewood, phoenix tail feathers,"

"Broken star wood, gryphon feathers,"

In this way, Harry tried one wand after another.

When Harry tried the wand, Drink also discovered one thing, that is, his teacher was not searching blindly, but slowly analyzing step by step. The first was the strength. The heart of the dragon was too strong, and the feathers of the unicorn were too strong. Weak, the phoenix feathers are okay but not powerful enough, the snake's nerves are too soft, and the gryphon feathers are too fluttery. In short, every wand Harry tried made sense.

Finally, Master Ollivander turned his attention to phoenix feathers. Harry tried various combinations of trees and phoenix feathers. Each one was good, but all had some shortcomings.

"I should have thought earlier that only that wand is suitable for you." At this time, Master Ollivander's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he thought of something.

Drink looked at the teacher's expression and guessed it. Phoenix feathers and holly wood were one of the best wand combinations.

"Holly wood, phoenix feathers, the most extraordinary combination, eleven inches long, powerful, and extremely tough," Master Ollivander said as he handed Harry a bright wand that was slightly blue in color. special.

At this time, Drinker was just staring at Harry. He didn't want to miss this historic scene.

Sure enough, after Harry got the wand, a sudden beam of light shone on him, illuminating him instantly, followed by gusts of breeze. This breeze did not blow randomly like the wind of Qi, they were blowing. Rotating regularly, [-]% of the wind hit Harry, blowing his hair up, and the remaining parts blew around, making people feel cool and refreshing.

At this moment, Harry was as bright as a god coming into the world. Of course, it would be better if he could open his eyes instead of being blown over by the wind. And at this moment, Drinker also saw for the first time Come to Harry Potter, the mysterious lightning-shaped scar on his forehead.
