The man behind Hogwarts

"If it takes me a month and a half to learn the Iron Armor Curse and it's a magic prodigy, then it only took me a few days, so what does that count??"

I am happy with my talent, but also worried about being too outstanding and causing unnecessary trouble.

This is a magical world.

There is an unfathomable mystery here.

He knew that he was not yet ready to be unscrupulous. If this was a pure Muggle world, William would definitely have no scruples, because his force and wisdom could solve everything.

But in the wizarding world, he is just a young wizard who has just entered magic school;

At least in the eyes of others, even if he appeared in "Wizard Weekly" and even if he founded the 'Gem Club', he was just a smart little wizard.

William is happy with this now.

History has always told him that before he has the power to destroy everything, he should not let himself stand out too much.

Don't put yourself in danger before you are 10,000% sure of your own protection.

Therefore, he secretly warned that even if he has accumulated a deep foundation and has many trump cards, he should now seize the opportunity of accumulation instead of acting fast.

Inside the market.

The hard-working wizards have already begun to go to the market.

Follow the road to the entrance of the valley, to the big light in the center of the valley, and to a flat area around the big light.

This is the most central area of ​​the entire Steyning Market.

Although there were only twenty or thirty stalls in the entire market, the wizards still had a great time shopping.

As soon as William left the wooden house, he could see the dense crowd of vendors in front of him, the noisy wizards, and the light curtain above his head that enveloped the entire market.

"William, something is wrong. This thing didn't exist yesterday. Why was it suddenly set up today?" Crohn pointed to the light curtain above his head.

The light curtain is like a semicircular ball, transparent in color, but a slight blue light can be seen under sunlight.

William looked a bit like Crohn casting the 'Silent Spell' in the library.

He whispered: "What is this?"

Crohn waved his wand and sensed it for a while, "Hey, this turns out to be a combination spell."

After sensing it, he explained it carefully to William.

According to his perception, the transparent light curtain above his head was a combination of spells, which contained at least three spells. He only analyzed that two of them were the Silent and Breathless Curse and the Anti-Disturbance Curse.

He couldn't sense the other spell, but it should also be a defensive spell.

In fact, in addition to the transparent light curtain above the head, other auxiliary spells are also cast outside the valley, such as expulsion spells to expel Muggles...

"When we came in yesterday, we only had the Silent and Breathless Spell. It seems that the other two enchantments were added later."

"Maybe it's because of that group of unidentified wizards."

"What to do next?" Crohn looked at William, "Since this defensive spell has been added to the market, it may be that the organizer of the market has discovered something."

"There's no rush, let's get some information first."

William's expression was calm, without any trace of panic.

First, I roughly observed the atmosphere in the market and found that whether it was the vendors or the wizards buying things, they all behaved naturally and calmly, without any panic.

Looking at the entrance of the valley, wizards would come in from time to time, but no wizard would go out.

The old wizard who set up the stall yesterday had already opened his stall and was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed to relax.

"Old sir, you are quite leisurely."

The old wizard opened his eyes and saw that it was William. He smiled warmly and said, "It's not leisurely, just boring. Do you want to buy something? The price has been reduced. If you want to buy it, hurry up."

William held a Galleung between his fingers and said, "Don't beat around the bush, let's talk about what happened."

This old wizard has been running a stall for many years, and with his temperament, he must know some inside information.

"Hehe." The old wizard quickly took the Gallon and hid it, looked around, and said closer: "Last night, a seriously injured wizard suddenly came to the treasure hunter and said that there were a large number of wizards ambushing outside, and everyone who left was in trouble. Poisonous hand..."

"Who is the treasure hunter you are talking about?"

"The name Treasure Hunter is a code name, and everyone in the market uses this code name." The old wizard explained: "He is one of the oldest and strongest shopkeepers in Stening Market."

He explained the whole story clearly in an understatement.

It turned out that a departing wizard was ambushed, but he managed to escape and immediately reported it to several big shopkeepers in the market.

After verification, the big shopkeepers confirmed the news and increased the market's defense force overnight.

Unfortunately, the group of wizards who came in last night still escaped.

Now several big shop owners are discussing countermeasures.

"According to my experience, this rally can no longer be held. Although the news has not been revealed yet, it can't contain the fire, and everyone will know about it soon. So... the products are on sale, do you want to buy some? ?”

"Buy! I'll buy everything about magical creatures!"

……

After leaving the old wizard's stall, I looked at the big shops in the center and found that the doors were indeed closed.

Now he probably understood the situation.

"Professor, if we need to contact the Ministry of Magic, how long will it take for them to arrive?"

"If I contact them, they will definitely be here within an hour."

"That's good." William nodded, "Don't rush to contact the Ministry of Magic. I guess it won't be needed anymore. There will definitely be new situations in the market today. We can just adapt accordingly."

Crohn admitted that he was only worried about William's safety, and then asked: "Then let's continue visiting the market now?"

"Shopping! And we have to go shopping a lot!"

The two of them formed a team and walked from the entrance to the last stall.

During this period, William spread his money widely and spent many galleons.

What was exchanged was the materials of thirty-seven magical creatures, such as the feathers of the Silent Bird, the whiskers of the Lamora fish, the tail of the deformed lizard...

He bought some magical creatures that he didn't have.

But after browsing the entire market, I only managed to find thirty-seven kinds.

Moreover, the magical creatures here are not particularly precious or rare creatures, most of them are XXX and below.

The only thing that surprised him was a piece of skin from a magical creature with level XXXX: a horned camel.

You must know that horned camels are not only dangerous, but also very rare.

I heard that this creature became extinct decades ago, but I didn't expect to see a remnant of it here.

Although the horned camel's most precious thing is the powder ground from its horns, William doesn't want to use it to refine potions or alchemy, so it doesn't mind it at all.

In the end, he spent a huge sum of money to buy it, a full 40 Galleons.

Looking at the piece of animal skin he got, William smiled.

It was only about the size of a palm, and its fur was grey-purple and very strong. Even if William pulled hard, he could not make any marks on it.

According to the merchant, the horned camel's skin is not only strong, but also has very high magic resistance.

Many spells have no effect on their skin.

The merchant was a talkative man. When he saw William spending a lot of money, he pulled him into a conversation.

"Horned beasts are ruthless guys. They usually only appear in the mountains. They have two sharp golden horns that are indestructible. Not to mention stones, even an iron pillar can knock a hole out of you. .”

"Legend has it that mountain trolls like horned camels very much, and occasionally ride on them, trying to tame horned beasts."

Crohn squatted aside and asked curiously: "Then, is it tamed?"

The merchant shook his head: "It should be difficult, otherwise why would the mountain monster always have so many scars made by the horned camel beast?"
