Chapter 31: I haven't seen a dark wizard for ten years [today's 10,000-word update]
Diagon Alley.
Following Professor McGonagall, Li Fei saw the whole picture of Diagon Alley for the first time.
This commercial street, which can be called the most prosperous commercial street in the wizarding world in the United Kingdom, is showing Li Fei a different kind of charm.
The streets are lined with signs that flicker with magical effects, and the first one that catches your eye is a potions specialty store on the right.
At the window of the shop, countless flickering magical handwriting changed in the air.
"Hogwarts Potions Professor Snape highly recommends!"
"Mr. Slug Horn teamed up with dozens of Potions Masters to personally screen and boil for dozens of hours."
"Nicol Lemay thought about it for a year and made a decision that went against his ancestors - to provide a potion formula."
"A small pot of potions, a great gift for business people."
A mouthful of old groove in the mouth, isn't this a routine for a small pot of tea?
I hope that these dozen or so masters in the wizarding world who "boil it with their own hands" can have the time to sleep.
In the left corner, a magical comedy shop called "Jokowi Joke Shop" is doing an event at the door.
It seems that you only need two silver sike to draw a magic pot.
Seeing Li Fei's gaze looking over here, the clerk wearing a magic jar-shaped helmet hurriedly greeted him warmly.
"Take a look at one, there's absolutely nothing empty!"
At this time, a little boy with red hair and a freckled face bought a limited-edition, golden egg-shaped magic pot with a large pile of copper nat.
The clerk shouted the slogan very cooperatively: "Golden flowers are splashed, wish you come true!" ”
After the boy smashed the golden egg with a small hammer, not only was there no golden flower, but not even a scrap of paper.
Now it became "The golden flower is gone, you, goodbye......"
The boy didn't believe in evil and lifted the magic jar and looked into it desperately, not to mention him, Li Fei saw it, it was empty, and there was not even a note that said "Thank you for your patronage".
The clerk was still very enthusiastic and not embarrassed at all: "Hehe! Occasionally, there is an empty one, and it is also excusable~"
Well, profiteers!
Li Fei hurriedly walked around the store from a distance.
When passing by the [Fengya Brand Wizard Clothing Store], the coolly dressed proprietress happened to come out of it and saw Li Fei looking curiously here.
The rare oriental appearance immediately aroused the interest of the mature big sister, and beckoned to Li Fei:
"The guy on the other side is very handsome!"
It's moving! DNA moves!
Li Fei seems to be shy, but in fact, he is extremely frightened in his heart and has been far away, this woman has been equated with the devil Kelly in Li Fei's heart.
tightly protected the wooden bracelet on his right hand, for fear that the other party would accidentally "disintegrate" his golden dragon wand in the name of "strengthening".
A wizard is releasing an owl delivering a message: "Go Celia, the wind will guide you in your way." ”
Rows of copper crucibles are placed in front of the store on the left, and owls, which are national second-class protected animals, show their unique temperament in the window of the pet store on the right.
The dazzling sunlight shone down on the copper, silver crucibles, and the intense light reflected from the crucibles provoked a commotion among the owls diagonally opposite.
It all seemed magical and funny, including the [Twisted Ice Cream] that Professor McGonagall paid for Li Fei.
The ice cream ball in his hand, like a dancer, spins on the egg roll, jumping from time to time, looking particularly naughty.
As for the part that Li Fei bitten, the ice cream did not resist too much, but stretched out a thin ice cream hand and waved goodbye to the part of the "brother" in Li Fei's mouth.
Speaking from the heart, Li Fei enjoys this kind of bustling life atmosphere that can no longer be felt in the big cities in later generations.
If only there were a few more stalls selling literature and entertainment, plus a few old men with various Bodhi handles, carrying bird cages through the crowd.
It's too much like a morning market that only comes every Wednesday, or rather, a big market.
It's a pity that I can't see the wizard performance with a big stone broken on his chest.
While he was thinking wildly, an eager commotion suddenly sounded in the crowd in front of him, and the screams of countless men and women suddenly came.
I saw three wizards wearing black wizard robes, hoods, and unclear appearances, waving their wands in the direction of Li Fei and Professor McGonagall.
Professor McGonagall stood in front of Li Fei in time, waving her wand in her right hand three times in succession.
"Armor protection!"
"Rapid transformation!"
At the same time, he applied a highly defensive armor spell to Li Fei and himself, only to see a blue-white translucent ripple blocking the front of the two of them.
In the end, the Transfiguration Technique was forcefully pulled up from the ground by two stone walls, blocking the three fleeing dark wizards.
Two of the spells released by the three of them hit Li Fei and McGonagall respectively, but they were blocked by the armor spells on their bodies, and they were unharmed.
But the third spell may have missed its head in a hurry, and slammed into the ground on the right side behind Li Fei.
For a moment, the earth flew wildly, and the fragments of the bluestone slab splashed up like bullets, causing great panic in the crowd.
In a panic, a somewhat bald old man pushed away Li Fei in front of him who was blocking his escape route with his right hand.
Then he burst into a shop on the side of the road and locked the door of the store.
Looking at the twisted ice cream that fell to the ground, covered with shoe prints and dust, and no longer as energetic and enthusiastic as before, Li Fei looked back at the name of the shop: "Quidditch Boutique".
The three Dark Wizards eventually fled to other places, and Professor McGonagall protected Li Fei the whole time, except for necessary interference, and did not leave Li Fei to help capture the Dark Wizard.
Clearly, Professor McGonagall thinks that protecting her students is more important than anything else.
"Since the defeat of the mysterious man by Harry Potter, the Ministry of Magic has been carrying out a special operation to crack down on and capture the dark wizards for several years.
Countless evil dark wizards have been arrested and imprisoned in Azkaban.
It had not been nearly a decade since this had happened, and three Dark Wizards had dared to openly cause an attack on Diagon Alley.
But don't worry, Hogwarts is the safest place to study, live and study. ”
Since seeing Li Fei's face darken, Professor McGonagall thought that Li Fei was frightened and began to try to say something to comfort Li Fei.
She took Li Fei to the Gringotts Wizarding Bank.
It is a towering white building located in Diagon Lane, London.
On the outermost side of Gringotts was a gleaming bronze gate, guarded by elves in scarlet and gold uniforms, who bowed to Li Fei and McGonagall as Professor McGonagall passed by.
After entering the bronze gate, it was not the nightmare world created by a well-known wizard that Li Fei was talking about, but another gate.
This second door is silver, and the word warning is engraved on it:
"Come in, stranger, but be careful.
What will happen to insatiable greed;
Blindly taking, not getting for nothing,
There will be the most severe punishment;
So if you want to take it from our underground vault
A wealth that never belonged to you;
Thou hast been warned, O thief,
Beware that it is not a treasure that is invited, but a bad retribution. “
Passing through the second silver door and into the spacious marble hall, about a hundred or so elves sat on high stools behind the long counter.
Some of the elves weighed their coins with their scales, and some of them used eyepieces to inspect gems while hastily registering them in large ledgers.
There were countless doors in the hall, leading to different places, and many elves guided people in and out of these doors.
Professor McGonagall walked over to an old elf who could be seen to be so old.
The bags under his eyes were almost down to his nose, but he was still reluctant to hold the gold coin in his hand.
Yes, the little money in the goblin's house is not as much as in the Gringotts Bank.
Even if it's not your own money, being able to touch it with your own hands and listen to the crisp sound of the golden gallons falling and colliding is the most wonderful thing in the lives of the elves.
"I'm Minerva McGonagall, and I'm here to take my freshman on the currency exchange."
Hearing that it was the currency exchange business that the goblins were most reluctant to face, the old goblin obviously lost his nature, beckoned, and a young goblin who had just finished doing chores came over from the corner with a mop.
"Speaker, this is your first official customer, a 'valued customer' who wants to handle currency exchange."
For the elves, all Muggle currency was a piece of waste paper in front of them.
After all, in the mortal world, paper money is also used as a substitute for general equivalents, and the real preservation of value must be the precious metal gold.
But in recent years, more and more Muggle-born wizards have enrolled in school every year.
As a result, Gringotts has to accept frequent currency exchange services for pounds to gold galleons.
Of course, there is a certain amount of money, and some people expect to be able to directly short the existence of Gringotts through a run and other economic means, Li Fei can only say that you think about the world too simply.
No one is a fool these days.
Those who think they are playing with the world will be played with by the world after all. - Brother Cheng.
Unconsciously, the update lasted for 15 days, 85,000 words, although it was not worth mentioning in front of the tentacle monster of the Eagle God, but there was still some emotion in my heart.
Before I sent out the book, I looked at the seniors who had 17 or 180,000 words, and now I have 80,000 words, and they are just 200,000, and I have an urge to pick it up.
Although I can only sneak fish during the day, or stay up late at night, I believe that this is the story I want to express, and I will definitely write this book in its entirety!
It's still this sentence, and the beginning of the 8 times was completely rewritten for the sake of the contract, which is not something I can control.
But what I can do is to cherish the hard-won opportunity, and while working hard to update, it is enough to bring a little laughter to everyone who has worked hard all day.
The main character will be handsome later, and this story is very long, please let me tell you slowly.
If you feel slow, don't rush, at least occasionally there is a joke to watch and relax.
