Chapter 9 Before the start of school
Fang Yan returned to the Cauldron Bar and tried it several times, and finally got a rough idea of what the wand was doing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The first is the kind of psychic scanning that Dialect experienced at the Ollivanders Wand Shop. Through the medium of magic, dialects can immerse their mental consciousness in the wand, and use the wonderful magnetic field emitted by the wand to observe the outside world, with a maximum observation range of about 200 meters in diameter. However, this ability is also very limited, and it is extremely draining to use. If probed at the maximum range, the dialect can only last less than a minute.
But the good thing is that the dialect can freely control the size of the detection range, and if the range is narrowed down to 10 meters, he can hold on for about 10 minutes. In addition to this, this ability to observe is also affected by the density of matter. For example, in the underground, dialects can only be observed at most more than 2 meters, and further down there is no more.
The second point is the ability that all wands have - mana amplification. However, unlike ordinary wands, which can only increase mana by a maximum of 20%, this wand can increase mana by about 60%. And the dialect also vaguely felt that this was not the limit of the wand.
The third point is a bit more subtle, and the dialect feels that this wand can "breathe". Yes, a wand can "breathe"! But it's not the air-breathing nature of a creature, it's the wand that fluctuates at a strange frequency. He felt this when Fang Yan held the wand, as if the wand was alive and emitted a magnetic field that only living creatures wanted. This magnetic field fluctuation echoes with the magnetic field fluctuation emitted by the dialect, which is as frequent as biological respiration, which is very strange. However, the dialect has not yet figured out what effect this ability has for him.
In addition to the above three points, each wand will have a certain property that enhances the magical utility of the wand owner in a certain way. Such as increasing the penetration of spells, increasing the control of transfiguration, etc., but Fang Yan has not yet found out what the characteristics of his wand are, and it seems that he can only slowly figure it out in the future.
Fang Yan couldn't put it down and played with the wand in his hand, feeling that he had not spent so much money in vain, and just increasing his magic power was something that no amount of money could buy, let alone other more magical abilities.
In the wizarding world, the only known things that can increase mana are wands and magic potions. The wand can only increase by one or two percent if it suits you, and if you don't fit it, it will reduce the power of the spell. As for the magic potions, not to mention that only a potions master like Snape can refine them, they can only temporarily increase their magic power, and once the effect of the medicine passes, it will be beaten back to its original form.
And the legendary alchemy items that can increase mana? Even today's only master of alchemy, Nicolame, was not sure that he could make it. Legend has it that Nicolame once borrowed the magic wand refining method to make alchemy items that increased his magic power, but in the end, no news came out, and he thought it should have failed. It can be seen that the preciousness of the wand that can increase the magic power by sixty percent is probably comparable to that of the legendary old wand.
However, thinking about the large debt he owed to Ollivander, Fang Yan couldn't help but blush. After thinking about it, Fang Yan finally planned to go to the Muggle world to settle the money. 2,500 gold galleons, converted into pounds sterling, is 125,000 yuan, which is equivalent to 1.1 million yuan. This huge amount of money, if he had killed the dialect in his previous life, he wouldn't have been able to take it out, but now it's different, it's only 1990.
In the memory of the dialect, the first of the three major economic crises after the 90s appeared between 1990 and 1992. The dialect of Japan's real estate bubble, which has begun now, cannot catch up, but the dialect of the Gulf War in early 1991 has not had time to intervene, not to mention eating meat with those predators, but even drinking some soup is enough. It's just that the exact operation is still up for debate, and the dialect is not in a hurry now.
With a little over a month to go before Hogwarts starts, Dialect is constantly experimenting with the spells he has learned with his newfound wands. Not to mention, it was a far cry from what the old dialect had done with Tom Sr.'s wand. The old wand can only exert about 50% to 70% of the power of dialect magic, but the new wand can increase the power of dialect by 60% on the basis of dialect magic.
During this time, Fang Yan not only became familiar with magic spells, but also began to come into contact with the potions science of this world. In the "Inheritance of Witch Crystals", Fang Yan also gained some knowledge of elementary herbology in the wizarding world, although the herbs involved in it basically do not exist in this world, but some techniques and ideas for making potions are still very useful. Combining the knowledge of potions from the two worlds, dialects quickly entered the door in potions, and they were already able to refine several primary potions, and the quality was still very good.
By the first few days of school, the overall strength of the dialect had increased significantly compared to before, and in general it was about the same level as a third- and fourth-year Hogwarts student, which was already a good progress for a dialect that had only been exposed to magic for about a year.
On the "wizard" side, however, the dialect has not yet been found. Because the first step for a mortal to become a wizard is to use the object of enlightenment to open the spiritual sea and become a wizard's apprentice, and the spiritual sea is the foundation of the wizard's cultivation, and without opening up, it is impossible to practice meditation and build a model of witchcraft. Dialects are now stuck on the point of the things of enlightenment.
However, Fang Yan was not in a hurry, with the current level of magic power of this body, it was already equivalent to the level of a junior wizard apprentice, and he barely had a little self-preservation. After obtaining the Philosopher's Stone next year, he will naturally be able to smoothly open up the spiritual sea and embark on the path of a wizard.
It's not that the magicians in this world (for the sake of convenience, the wizards in the Harry Potter world will be called wizards in the future, and the wizards in the big wizard world will be called wizards) are not strong, it's just that due to the limitations of the world level, the magicians in this world have a limited way forward. Even the top-level Voldemort, Dumbledore and the like are only equivalent to the peak of second-level wizards and less than the appearance of third-level wizards, and they can't even do immortality, how can they be compared with the eternal immortal realm of ninth-level wizards in the wizarding world. When the two are compared, dialects naturally have to choose a more promising path.
As the start of school approached, Fang Yan had already reviewed all the spells he could learn several times, and his strength growth had temporarily fallen into a bottleneck. After all, Fang Yan is still young now, the magic power in his body is limited, and he is not a member of a top family or force, and he can't get the secret method that can improve his magic power from the secret world of magic, and he can only naturally increase his magic power with the passage of time, which is now the limit of what Fang Yan can do. This also made him more eager to open the spiritual sea as soon as possible and embark on the path of a true wizard.
PS: This book is a critical period recently, and the author is cheeky to ask everyone for recommendation votes. One is fine, two is better, three or more is perfect, the more the merrier!
