v2 Chapter 10： tom's toy

Tom's idea is by no means whimsical. He just wants to fix the runes and the like on some kind of carrier, so as to realize the solidification magic. This is not groundbreaking work, on the contrary, solidification magic is already widely used in the magical world.

There are flying brooms with higher technical requirements. Most of the high-end brooms have curing magic. The products with less technical requirements are wizard robes. Many wizards' robes have solidified self-cleaning magic, and some can also ensure that they are warm in winter and cool in summer.

Tom doesn't know the principles of these solidification magic, but he also has a set of his own ideas.

Ollivander went to the back room and used the Floating Charm to take out a slender package from the corner of the room. Tom had a vague idea, but he wasn't sure, until Mr. Ollivander opened the package.

Inside the package turned out to be a two-finger metal staff with a length of two meters.

Tom was stunned: the staff is so close that you don't need to cast magic to knock down the enemy, right?

Ollivander looked at the staff and sighed, "I was young and ignorant and always wanted to create my own way, so I made this guy according to the staff in ancient legends. Then I thought: Why is the staff? It had to be made of wood, so I used metal..."

Seeing Tom's stunned expression, Mr. Ollivander's rare old face turned red. There was a kind of middle-aged man who was discovered by his family's children that his QQ screen name was the same as that of Space when he was young. Sometimes it is torture to explain to children what "loneliness" is.

Ollivander coughed twice, "Basically every wand maker has his whimsical moments."

With great effort, he picked up the staff and propped it on the ground, "This staff is too heavy, so you can't use it to perform magic spells, so ordinary wizards can't use it to cast spells. I thought about it later. For a moment, it's more suitable for wizards who can cast spells without a staff - like Mr. Dumbledore."

Tom imagined Dumbledore wielding this staff, and his teeth hurt.

"How can you still hold such a staff when you can cast spells without a staff!"

The image of this staff gradually began to change towards the appearance of a solar flashlight.

Mr. Ollivander didn't speak, just poked his staff on the ground, and a dazzling light appeared at the top of the staff.

"It's really too tasteless..."

Ollivander also said that the wand he made in a flash is really weird: it is not very practical as a wand. However, Tom learned from Ollivander that the metal used to make this wand is not small. It is a product of alchemy and can store a certain amount of magic power.

Tom felt that the metal looked interesting, so he asked Mr. Ollivander for some.

Mr. Ollivander gave Tom all the metal left over from the casting of his wand back then.

[Get 3 kilograms of magic silver - pure silver refined by alchemists can store a certain amount of magic power]

"Have you ever thought about making the wand smaller?" Tom felt that if the wand was made smaller and lighter, it might still be usable.

Mr. Ollivander showed an embarrassed smile: "I really did this before, but the effect is really not as good as a wooden wand..."

Tom was speechless, he put away the leftovers. When he returned to the dormitory at night, he picked out a piece of magic silver, cut the metal block into coins the size of a coin with a carving knife and a scorpion, ground and polished it. Fortunately for Tom, the metal is not very hard and can be carved with a knife.

Tom was playing with a magic silver coin the size of a gold Galleon in his hand. After thinking for a while, he picked out a few runes and slowly carved them.

"Begin, invoke, stabilize, teleport, float, light -- the end rune."

These runes are the crystallization of the experience of successive alchemists and wand makers. They found that as long as the magic power runs through these trajectories, specific effects can be achieved. Thanks to them, Tom can do his own research standing directly on the shoulders of those who came before.

By the time he finished carving all seven runes according to a specific formation, it was already late at night. Tom turned off the lights in the dormitory, and it was pitch black.

Tom instilled a magic power into his magic silver coin, and then, the coin gave out a faint light, Tom let go of his hand, and the coin floated in the air, even if Tom cut off the supply of magic power, it was still there. Quietly glowing.

"It's done!"

Tom's work for one night is actually to make a floating night light. But what drives this lamp is magic, magic. What's more, Tom disconnected the magic supply and it still worked fine for five minutes.

A very tasteless toy. With a spell, Tom could achieve the same effect in just five seconds—floating and glowing, not hard, and it took two hours to carve the coin.

But Tom was satisfied.

The next day, when Tom came to Lihen Bookstore, the bookstore was closed. The manager of the bookstore, Mr. Lawrence, was standing outside the store. In front of him were four wizards, three men and one woman, a senior employee and three cute newcomers. On the front of the robes of all four wizards is a badge inscribed with the letter M - the symbol of the Ministry of Magic.

Seeing Tom coming over, Mr. Lawrence smiled at Tom, "I won't open today, I'll give you a day off."

This is exactly what Tom wanted However, he did not leave in a hurry, but stood on the side and waited.

Seeing Lawrence finish speaking, the short-haired wizard in the lead smiled, "It's delaying your business."

"No, no, let's cooperate with the Ministry of Magic's inspection!" With that said, Mr. Lawrence opened the shop door and wanted to invite some Ministry of Magic investigators to enter.

The short-haired wizard walked in carelessly and looked at the neatly lined books on the shelf. Instead of rushing to start a search, he chatted with Mr. Lawrence.

"How is the business?"

"It's not tepid, it won't be busy until two days later."

"You don't have any black magic items in your shop, do you?"

"Look at what you said, as soon as I open a bookstore, I can sell black magic items? Those who sell prohibited items are all over there." Mr. Lawrence pointed to the direction of Knockturn Alley.

The short-haired wizard didn't pick up. Of course, he knew that Knockturn Alley had been selling illegal and even illegal things, and he also knew that Diagon Alley was full of serious shops. That's why he asked for a relationship to come to Diagon Alley! As for Knockturn Alley, it is naturally handed over to Leng Touqing in the Ministry to investigate, such as Arthur Weasley...

"If we find it... Twice!" He finally gave the order. The team members took out a few strangely shaped sticks and began to probe.

"Captain, there are fluctuations!" Unexpectedly, the fluctuations of black magic were actually detected on a bookshelf.

The captain's expression became serious. He took out a looking glass, but it didn't respond at all, and it didn't mean to issue an alarm at all.

The captain rolled his eyes, "I just said that this **** is not reliable, it is probably a false alarm." He asked the team members to put away the sticks. The four of them made a rough inspection and left. Of course, he accepted the purse quietly handed over by Mr. Lawrence.
