Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 257: Academic talk
"Mr. Anderson came to the party for the first time and probably didn't know..."
"No no, Mr. Anderson also brought his own results!" Sierra Harris smiled mysteriously at everyone, raised his finger and pointed to Albert's right wrist, where there was an exquisite wooden bracelet.
Harris has just discovered Albert's protective bracelet. After all, he is an expert in the field of alchemy. He can guess what it is at a glance.
"Mr. Anderson, can you lend it to us?" Harris asked.
"Oh, you said this!"
Albert was stunned for a moment, then took off the version 2.0 protective wristband on his right hand and handed it to Sierra Harris on his side, still a little puzzled.
"A very practical thing." Harris looked up and down and couldn't help but sigh, "I can't do something like this at your age."
"A very British magic item."
Adolf, the old wizard who previously said that Albert was a genius, took over version 2.0 of the protective bracelet from Harrisis, and commented after checking it carefully.
"This is not a profound thing, and the effect may not last too long, it is almost the same as a normal amulet." Another French wizard glanced at version 2.0 of the eye protection bracelet, thinking that these two guys were telling the truth. Too much nonsense.
"Haha, Claude, you're wrong!" Sierra Harris couldn't help but tease: "Next time, remember to change your glasses."
"Is there any problem?" Claude was slightly dissatisfied. He thought his evaluation was very pertinent. Although Anderson can make such a thing at that age is indeed very powerful, but this thing is at that level, it's nothing Very boastful.
"Mr. Anderson is good at ancient runes. He is really admirable in this regard." Adolph pointed to the protective bracelet, looked at Albert, and asked curiously, "Why not use yew wood? I feel Yew is better for ancient rune."
"This is just an experiment," Albert explained.
"Well, I suggest you try yew wood, it goes well with ancient rune," Adolph said softly, "Your name is Albert Anderson, right, I'm Adolphe Fournier, yes There is some research on magic items, if you are interested in this area, you can write to me when you have time."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Fournier, I'm really interested in making magic items." Albert smiled and shook hands.
"Really a very powerful little guy?" Adolph sighed in his heart, ready to go back to find Albert's previously published papers.
Claude couldn't help being taken aback. He and Adolf had known each other for decades, and he naturally understood that the other party was not someone who would brag about others at will, so he knew that there was probably something on the wooden bracelet that he hadn't discovered.
To be honest, Claude's level of ancient Rune was average. Thinking of this, he couldn't help blushing, and quickly took a sip from the teacup to hide the embarrassment on his face.
"I remember that in Mr. McDoug's new book about ancient runes a while ago, it seemed that Mr. Anderson was mentioned." Nelson glanced at Claude next door and smiled at Abe Fei nodded and said, "So far, I still don't understand the book, maybe, we can take the time to communicate. Also, you have a good idea, you can consider the risk of mass production and selling to the Ministry of Magic in the future. people, I think they'll love your amulet."
The middle-aged wizard's English is a bit odd, probably because he's a Dane, and he's also good at ancient runes and alchemy.
After all, runes are derived from Norse mythology.
Claude is even more embarrassed.
Version 2.0 of the protective bracelet has been rounded. Whether you can understand its uniqueness or not, you know that Claude has misunderstood.
"Speaking of which, what kind of wood is this, it doesn't seem to be a Yamanashi tree." Someone finally couldn't stand it anymore, so he changed the subject to Claude.
"That is the mandrake root. It is said that the dried mandrake root has the effect of sheltering and expelling black magic creatures." It was Gobalot who explained that he was the best at potions.
Everyone couldn't help but glance at Albert. I didn't expect so many doorways in this simple thing.
"Okay, this little wooden bracelet really surprised us." Claude coughed lightly, and simply admitted that he had just missed it.
Actually, if Claude simply admitted, no one would make fun of him. After all, everyone will encounter this kind of thing, and it is still in the field that they are not very good at.
The subject of ancient rune is rather strange. If you want to really understand it, you need to have a certain level, otherwise you can only see the surface.
Harrisis motioned Albert to get up and explain the protective bracelet. Albert talked about the rune problem on version 2.0 of the protective bracelet. At least half of the audience did not understand.
Nelson was very enthusiastic about answering the topic of Rune with Albert, completely putting the others aside. l
"Then it's my turn next." Harrisis smiled and took out a glass jar containing a black powder so dark that it seemed to engulf all the light.
"I call it dark powder. It's a very special powder. It's a magic substance extracted from ore from Peru mixed with some plant fruit powder. It has the property of being opaque."
Sera Harris poured out some black powder from the glass bottle, raised her wand and waved it lightly, so that the little piece of darkness in front of her would not spread around.
"I remember that this thing seems to be found in Peru ~IndoMTL.com~ belongs to some mineral quality." Another old wizard frowned.
"You are right. However, there is no progress in Peru for the time being. I have already studied its manufacturing process first. However, I haven't found any use for this thing yet." Harris thought for a moment and added, "If it creates darkness."
Yeron Balder lit his wand and plunged into the dark mist, only to find that the light from the magic tip couldn't see through the darkness.
"It's odd that ordinary glowing spells and flames can't see through this darkness. Maybe it could be used to counter the spells caused by the light."
"Muggles have a smoke bomb they use to escape," Albert reminded. "You can make that kind of thing out of it, it's definitely useful, but I don't know how much it will cost."
"Not expensive, but not cheap either."
"That's very expensive, so I'm afraid it's not practical." Albert frowned.
"The extraction process technology needs to be improved, and the price will be greatly reduced." Sierra Harris thought for a while and said.
"By the way, will this thing be blown away by the wind?" Professor Broad asked coldly.
"No." Sera Harris shook his head, "Although it is a powder, once it spreads, it is more like magic, but its effect will gradually dissipate over time and usually does not last long. long."
"We can always find a use for it," Gerber Smith comforted. "Of course, Mr. Anderson has already provided the first use for dark powder."
After that, Serra Harrisis mentioned the extraction process of this thing in passing. To be honest, a bit complicated, at least for Albert, and definitely a losing business if not surviving on a large scale.
