Chapter 596: New Equipment (Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Collections, Asking for Tickets)
Ryan and Hermione didn't spend much time in the Celestial Empire, even shorter than they had planned. After spending half a month reading the book they wanted to read and visiting their loved ones, they boarded the plane back to the UK again.
"Don't be sad, at least our parents are safe here. Ryan comforted Hermione, who felt a little sad that she needed to say goodbye to her parents again, "Britain can be said to be a mess right now, and I'm glad that our parents moved to the Celestial Empire early. ”
Ryan didn't just say this to comfort Hermione, even if they could see the recent news of building collapses or train derailments in Britain in the Celestial Empire, the only thing to be thankful for is that probably because of Dumbledore's deterrence, these Death Eaters have carried out much fewer terrorist attacks than in the original text, but two attacks on Voldemort appeared at the scene of the attack and openly provoked the Ministry of Magic and Headmaster Dumbledore, which further exacerbated the turmoil in the British wizarding world and even the European demon world.
Especially in the train derailment accident, Voldemort appeared on the scene and waited for an elite Auror team to arrive and directly defeated the Auror team head-on, and then swaggered away before Dumbledore arrived. This scene reminded those who survived the last war of Voldemort's horrors again, and naturally the morale of the British wizards also dropped considerably.
This was evident to Lane when they returned to London, and even the English Muggle world was in a low mood due to the terrorist attacks perpetrated by the Death Eaters. Everyone walked down the road in a hurry, and even though the Dementors had suffered heavy losses from the last attack by the puppets and had not dared to show their heads until now, the whole city was still like all the joy had been sucked away by the Dementors.
"Let's go home first. Even if it's summer, London feels a chill to the bone, and Hermione shuddered at the mood on the street, and then made her own suggestion.
"Why don't you go and see Sirius and them first?" Ryan probably guessed why Hermione didn't want to visit Sirius as planned, "Okay, I'll always see him at his wedding anyway." ”
After returning to their manor, the two of them first sorted out the knowledge they had gained during their trip to the Celestial Empire for a few days, and then began to think about wedding gifts for the three couples. It is different from the Celestial Empire's habit of making red envelopes and keeping the price of the wedding gift secret when giving the wedding gift. Ryan and Hermione received their wedding invitations when they were in the Celestial Empire, along with the "GiftList" that came with the wedding invitations.
This thing translates to a gift list, and it lists the gifts that the couple wants. Because Ryan and Hermione had a good relationship with the three couples who attended the wedding, and the weddings of the three couples were held at the same time and place, they needed to consider that the gifts they gave to the three people were of similar value.
"With our relationship with them, the things we send must not be too bad, especially now that I am also a master of alchemy, even if the gift is more ordinary, it will seem too careless. Ryan scratched his head and looked a little distressed, in fact, this habit in Britain is exactly the same as that of the Celestial Empire, what kind of person has to give what kind of gift, whether the grade is too high or not enough, it is very inappropriate.
However, this is not the most distressing thing for him, for the current Ryan, the matter of the wedding gift can be put aside for the time being, because the situation is very bad now, so his priority at this time is to make himself an alchemy prop that can use the Virgin of Rose.
Although in the Harry Potter world, in most cases, magic props, that is, the toys sold by the Weasley twins, basically cannot determine the direction of a war, so most wizards usually solve all problems with a wand. However, this is not the case for all power-ups.
For example, in history, for the Elder Wand Grindelwald, the various battles between Dumbledore and Voldemort illustrate from the side how important a top-level alchemy item is. And the reason why Ryan chose to make this level of alchemy prop now, on the one hand, is that the upcoming war makes him need such a powerful prop for self-defense, and on the other hand, because the Holy Mother of Roses in his hand was made when Ryan mastered the rules of alchemy, and it happens to have the potential to become an alchemy prop of this level.
Of course, it is very difficult to make this kind of level alchemy prop, but fortunately, the Virgin of Roses in his hand is equivalent to his companion treasure. Therefore, for Ryan, the alchemy props to be made are equivalent to the natal magic weapon of the Xianxia world, and the difficulty of making them will be much smaller.
At the same time, the alchemy item made from this Rose Mother may not be very powerful at first, but he can grow slowly with Ryan, and he believes that one day he will grow to the level of the Elder Wand.
"Are you going to make your new magic item now?" Hermione looked up from a list of owl orders, the home-based owl delivery was becoming more and more popular as it had become more and more dangerous to go shopping out lately. And Hermione was now looking to see if there was anything she needed from there.
"Well, I'm going to Teacher Luo Zhen now. Ryan said after putting on his robe.
"That's right. As if she had thought of something, Hermione put down the owl in her hand and asked seriously. "Have you figured out what kind of prop you're going to make that Rose Lady into?"
"Well, not yet. Ryan scratched his head in embarrassment. "At first I wanted to make a wand, but then I decided that a wand alone was not enough, and I wanted a weapon that could cast spells like a wand and be used in hand-to-hand combat like my sword. Later, I felt that the wizards were too thin, and the defense ability might not be enough, and I wanted the new product to have enough defense ability. As a result, after this large number of requests were piled up, I found that I didn't know what to do, so now I can only go to Teacher Luo Zhen for help. ”
"It sounds like a not-so-happy story. Hermione said with a shrug. "Well, I wish you all the best this time, and we'll see you in an hour. ”
"See you in an hour. Ryan stepped forward and bent down to kiss Hermione on the couch, then opened the door to the world of the Rose Maiden. Hermione got up from the couch after watching the ad and took a shower, then went to the kitchen to prepare lunch, and an hour later, when Hermione put the prepared homemade frozen pickled cucumber sandwich and a pot of hot tea on the table, Ryan also walked out of the space door and appeared in the living room with a tired face.
"How long have you been over there this time? I feel like you're tired all over there right now. Hermione took Ryan's robe and hung it on the hanger, and said.
"It's only half a month, most of which is spent on design, and the actual hands-on production time is three days. Ryan smiled a little. "Actually, my previous idea was stupid, and the Virgin of Roses didn't actually need to wear anything when she used it. ”
"You don't need anything, what's going on?" asked Hermione, curiously.
"Because Our Lady of the Rose is the fifth element in addition to earth, water, fire, and wind, and it is also a small universe corresponding to the big universe, containing the root of all things, and naturally can have an impact on matter, body, and even the soul. Ryan summoned the Rose Madonna as she watched as a pink light burst out of Ryan's heart and hovered above him as a pink gem the size of a baby's fist. "Although it is very similar to the Philosopher's Stone, the principles and power contained in it are far more powerful than the Philosopher's Stone. ”
"Because of these qualities of Our Lady of the Rose, it can be turned into anything I need. As Ryan explained, the Rose Madonna suddenly disappeared from the top of Ryan's head and appeared in his right hand, which then took on the appearance of various weapons. "So for so long I actually understood how to use Our Lady of the Rosary and merge it with my soul to make it an extension of who I am. I don't have to fix it to anything. ”
"It sounds amazing, and I don't understand it very well, but being able to hear it can help you a lot. Hermione nodded slightly. "But you'd better go take a shower and have lunch now, I've got it ready. ”
