Chapter 7: Choosing a Wand
Xiao Han is just a time-traveler who has just come to the world of Harry Potter, who knows the market here.
Even if this goblin deceived him, he couldn't tell the difference, so naturally he was saying how much was much.
Moreover, Xiao Han didn't care about the goblin's offer, all he cared about now was what the wizard's currency was, and if he had a physical object, he could directly make it without restrictions.
However, although the goblins are known for their greed, Gringotts has always been known for their reputation, and this goblin did not kill Xiao Han much in this business.
"I have no problem with the price. Well, take your leave. ”
Xiao Han closed the box on the table and directly put it into his twenty-four space storage bag.
This kind of storage bag is the standard configuration of the heroes in the invincible world of heroes, and the exchange price is not too expensive.
Compared to this world, those space storage items that have solidified the expansion spell have their own strengths.
"Welcome to the next time, sir."
Behind him, the two goblins bowed and saluted, of course, they would not mention the box that was taken away by Xiao Han.
……
Walking out of the gate of Gringotts, Xiao Han was a little excited, he had money in his hand.
And it can be seen from the original book that this is still a lot of money, enough for him to do a lot of shopping in Diagon Alley.
As the most prestigious wizarding shopping street in the Harry Potter world, Diagon Alley, those many wonderful goods, long ago, he only existed in books, and he was attracted to him.
However, there is one thing that he buys first.
Coming to the Harry Potter world, as the same legal profession, it is naturally indispensable to miss the most important item of wizards in this world - wands.
Xiao Han was also very curious about whether he could use this so-called magic wand, and what effect it would have on him.
"Ollivander, a well-made wand since 382 BCE".
Look up at the golden signboard that has already peeled off a little.
If you didn't know the original book, who would have thought that this small and dilapidated shop would be the most prestigious wand shop in the Harry Potter world.
Almost all Hogwarts students bought their wands here, and even from time to time, people from other parts of Europe rushed to London to buy wands here.
"Jingle bell!"
Xiao Han pushed the door and walked in.
The hall was small, with nothing but a bench, and thousands of narrow boxes containing wands almost up to the ceiling.
"Welcome, sir."
The owner of the wand shop, Mr. Ollivander, walked out of a counter that was completely stacked with wands, and he was just in the wand pile, tending to a wand.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Ollivanders, I'm sorry to buy you a wand."
Xiao Han greeted him politely, in fact, the Yashan World also has a magic staff, but those are all treasures, and some of them are too expensive for him now.
Of course, Xiao Han knew that if it was really compared, in the Hero Invincible World, those artifact-level and Hallow-level staffs were much stronger than the magic wands in the Harry Potter world.
It's a pity that there are only a few dozen source points left on his body now, and those powerful staffs, which are often tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, are not what he can use now, who is poor and jingle.
"A gentleman I've never seen before." Ollivander looked at Xiao Han carefully and took out a tape measure from his pocket. "Excuse me, then, which arm do you use to use your wand?"
"Right hand, I'm right-handed." As long as you are not left-handed or have any special needs, otherwise basically everyone uses your right hand, and Xiao Han is naturally no exception.
"Okay, please raise your arm." Picking up the tape measure, in addition to his arm, Ollivander also measured Xiao Han's whole body.
The tape measure was moving on its own, and Ollivander was already looking for it in the wand pile.
In Ollivanders' eyes, there is the same concept that wizards buy wands as they do when they buy wands, and they choose their ministers.
It's never just the wizard who chooses the wand, the wand also chooses the wizard.
Different rod core materials, different rod body materials, different lengths, or even different degrees of softness and hardness correspond to different wizards.
Even, some wands from the same tree and the same creature may have a secret connection between the chosen wizards.
As the best wand maker, Ollivanders is able to provide all wizards with the best wands for them.
In a few moments, Ollivander stepped out of the wand pile.
"Try this, poplar, unicorn hair, seven inches, very flexible." The tape measure slid to the side, and Ollivander handed Xiao Han a wand.
Xiao Han was a little curious and ready to pick up his wand.
However, as soon as his hand touched the wand, the whole wand sparked uncontrollably, startling him.
Ollivander quickly removed the wand from his hand and carefully placed it back in the box.
"Try this one again, oak, dragon heart key, eleven inches, very tough." took out another wand and handed it to Xiao Han.
Xiao Han picked up his wand with some hesitation.
This time it wasn't that big of a reaction, but when Xiao Han tried to swing it, there was a bang, and the bright light that shot out from the tip of the staff directly split Ollivander's table in half.
Looking at the wand scattered on the ground because the table was destroyed, Xiao Han handed it back to Ollivander with some embarrassment.
Buying something in someone else's store, and then accidentally blowing up the counter in the store, made Xiao Han feel a little embarrassed.
However, Ollivander didn't say anything about this, thinking about it, it is estimated that it is not once or twice in a situation like this.
He took out a wand from his bosom, pointed at the table, and cast a repair spell to restore the table to its original state, and the wands that had been scattered all over the ground were stacked again.
"It seems that this one doesn't fit either."
Ollivander searched for a long time in the wand pile, which made Xiao Han wonder if he couldn't find a wand that suited him.
At this time, Ollivander walked out of it covered in dust, carefully put a crumpled box on the table, and carefully handed the wand stored inside to Xiao Han.
"Try this one again, yew, Thestrals, thirteen inches."
As soon as he got his hand, Xiao Han felt as if this wand was an extension of his arm, which was very wonderful.
He had a feeling that at this time, if he cast the "Flaming Arrow" magic, he would no longer just stun the troll, but would directly shoot the troll in the head.
Moreover, he also felt that those spells that he had used to cast a little reluctantly should now be able to be easily used.
"Looks like you've found the right wand for you." Ollivander saw the expression on Xiao Han's face and said in a dark tone.
"Yes, Mr. Ollivanders, this wand is what I want!"
After paying Ollivander 13 Galleons, Xiao Han couldn't wait to walk outside the store, he was now desperate to find a place to try and see what difference the magic he cast with the blessing of this wand.
Looking at Xiao Han's distant back, Ollivander's face slowly became a little dignified.
"A wizard chooses a wand, and a wand chooses a wizard, is this another person like the mysterious man?"
Shaking his head, he let go of the worries in his heart, Ollivander himself is just a wand seller, what's the use of worrying about this?
