Chapter Seventy-Six: Letter from the School
Although it seems that the cast on Spotted has been successful, Maple still has no intention of using it against him, unless it is a matter of life and death.
There is money, but the Weasley brothers still choose the same as the original plane. Maybe they have the money, and they have no worries, so they put more energy and enthusiasm into the joke shop where they are still only in the imagination stage.
On the one hand, the product ideas of Jokowi Joke Shop are very appealing to them, but on the other hand, they are very disappointed in Jokowi's Joke Shop, and they are angry with it, and they have been eating the old book, and they have not launched new creative jokes for a long time.
It's like a netizen with ideas, who saw that his favorite work was ruined by a secondary director, and it happened that he was very rich, so he thought about remaking this work himself.
After both liking and being disappointed in Jokowi, the Weasley brothers, who are already very funny themselves, can't help but want to open their own joke shop.
Hearing the idea of them selling him a fake wand, Maple couldn't help but say, "I don't seem to have any intention other than turning into an animal." Why don't you invent a quiz wand? ”
"Test wand?"
"Muggles have a weapon called a gun, which can kill people in the air. Real guns are dangerous, and the bullets fired inside them are worth a lot of money. So some people imitated these real guns to create some air guns, which made people have a good time. Although the structure of these guns is similar to that of real guns, they do not have the lethality of real guns and cannot kill people. ”
"Even in the Muggle army, because of the high cost of bullets, they don't usually use real bullets in training, but a kind of empty cartridge that can produce smoke and sparks, but has no long-range lethality."
"Isn't there always an accident when some scumbag is practicing his wand? Then invent a test wand that doesn't shoot real magic when the wizard successfully casts a spell, but can check if the wizard's spell is pronounced correctly.
At the same time, the wizard's cast is scored according to the sequence of SABCD, and the cast failure is D grade, the passing grade is C grade, the good grade is B grade, the excellent is A grade, and the perfect or even beyond perfection is S grade. Depending on the level of the wizard's spell, each level of the wand will emit a different light to tell the wizard the score. ”
"That's a great idea!" After Maple finished speaking, the Weasley brothers grabbed him by the shoulders left and right and said excitedly, "We can make a lot of money if we really do it!" ”
"But how do you make such a wand?" As soon as Maple spoke, they immediately scratched their minds, now they just had an idea, how to achieve it, and most importantly, how to feel the magic of wizards and rate their spell level?
Maple and the Weasley brothers studied it for a long time without a clue, and the Weasley brothers were blind about this kind of thing that specifically involved their magic level.
Maple then practiced the Ice Prison Lock Spell and the Ice Shield Spell in front of them, and gained a few more points of learning supremacy. This combination of spells is powerful, but the corresponding difficulty is also greatly increased.
For example, the difficulty of raising the level of the spell of the ice prison from C to B level is no less than the difficulty of raising ordinary spells from C to A+ close to S, with the help of the legacy of Li Xiaoyao card, after the card effect disappears, the spell that Li Xiaoyao card casts perfectly, Maple does not need to learn from D level from scratch, but can start from the level of barely being able to cast spells, which is equivalent to the level of C--.
The quiz wand couldn't be studied for the time being, and Maple first figured out something that had been popular for several years in his previous life - skateboarding.
The footage of the skateboarding chase in the city hunter taken by Jackie Chan back then is still very exciting to watch again. In the era of skateboarding, Maple also played skateboarding, but he never got the essentials and got stuck at the starting stage. However, his own brother quickly mastered the skateboard, and he couldn't do anything to see his brother play so well, so Maple dropped the skateboard in a fit of rage.
After smashing the skateboard, Maple knew the structure of the skateboard better, because it was quite resistant to falls, and it took a lot of effort for Maple to smash it.
Before, I may not have known what those structures were for, but now Maple can rely on the impression of memory-
Standage reappears!
Maple, who doesn't understand mechanical construction, still doesn't know how skateboards work, but after turning the images from his memory into a few construction drawings, the Weasley brothers helped build it.
"Agile steering!" "Shadow Leap!" "Listen to me!"
After the Weasley brothers had solved the problem of skateboarding, which was a problem for Maple, Maple cast a steering spell on the skateboard, a command charm, and a newly perfected speed increase and a spell to increase his ability to jump.
He went out and tried a skateboard outside the yard, and then Maple cast a paste spell on the skateboard, because the speed was too fast, he couldn't control it, and was directly thrown out by the rapid skateboard.
After using the paste charm, the skateboard and his feet stick together, so that he is not afraid of flying. With the command spell that I commanded, the skateboard could steer, accelerate and stop as Maple wanted.
However, there are still some problems with Maple's acceleration charm, because it only has two options, maximum speed and stop, and cannot accelerate evenly between zero and maximum speed like a broomstick, and you can adjust the speed to any speed between these two speeds and then drive at a constant speed according to the wizard's choice.
Thinking of this, Maple immediately found the Weasleys' old broomsticks, and the Weasley brothers said that it was okay to destroy them casually, and then they could spend their own money to get a new broom in their own house in the name of Maple.
"Mana Analysis!" Maple uses the Interpretation Charm that Professor McGonagall taught him, but is hindered.
But an old broom of a meteor is not as fast as a butterfly, and Maple has destroyed its protection in a few clicks.
However, the manufacturers of brooms do not care about this, because the time experienced in the middle of the broom to the point where it can easily destroy the protective measures is enough for them to replace it many times.
When the new broom was first launched, the protective measures were very tight, and if you want to break the protection of the broom and not damage the power mechanism inside, except for a few top wizards, ordinary people can't do it at all.
Professor McGonagall's Analytic Spell is used to parse the structure of objects to facilitate the deformation, and it is not so easy to parse other spells.
Could it be that Li Xiaoyao can be used again, maybe it will work, but he doesn't have enough points to superimpose and retain a Li Xiaoyao card, and such a superb card, once it is lost, it will be extremely difficult to draw it.
There is no way to make a better skateboard by figuring out the acceleration mechanism of the broomstick, but the Weasley brothers say that the skateboard is now available for sale.
Maple thought about it, too, why design the most perfect work from the beginning, if there is no room for improvement and cannot be upgraded, it is a hammer deal.
Plans are scrapped, system vulnerabilities and many other routines in the previous life, and it is a shame that Maple, who has experienced this, is not as clear as the Weasley brothers thought.
After thinking about this, Maple immediately became a black-hearted businessman, the first batch of acceleration spells, no jumping spells, of course, steering and command are necessary, acceleration spells do not need to be raised too fast, if there is no paste spell, it is easy to be thrown out by the skateboard.
As long as the speed can be increased enough to dodge the spell of the little friend, I don't believe that no one will pay. Maple was instantly relieved at the thought of the magic level of those junior students at Hogwarts.
The most important thing now is to solidify the power of magic, the power of spells does not last, maybe in a few weeks or even days, the power of magic is gone. But this was not difficult for the Weasley brothers, Harry had taught them the Iron Charm, but the magic of the anti-spell cloak they sold lasted for years without being destroyed, and it was clear that they had mastered the art of solidifying the spell.
This is the benefit of being born in a magical family, if you think about it, Mr. Weasley's car can also fly in the sky for a long time, but Mr. Weasley's magic is not strong enough to let the car fly too far at a time.
Like Harry and Ron, who flew straight from London to Hogwarts, the invisibility device in the middle car failed several times as a result of their overplay.
However, this year, Maple felt that it was better not to disturb Harry and Ron's Yaxing, such a rare feat, such a wonderful scene, how could they miss it?
The Weasley brothers had almost mastered the Acceleration Charm and the Command Charm, and Maple simply became the shopkeeper and left everything to them to handle, and with the connections of the Weasley family, they had much easier time doing things than Maple.
After spending more than a week here, Harry and the others received a letter from the school, along with Hermione's and Maple's.
"Dumbledore actually knows that you are here, and he really can't hide anything from him!" Mr. Weasley exclaimed.
The letter is still a Hogwarts Express train from King's Cross Station on September 1st, and then a list of new books to be used this year-
A complete set of Lockhart's books, as well as new textbooks for standard spell level 2 and other subjects such as Transfiguration Herbology and Potions.
Gilderoy Lockhart's books are expensive, and they are still a complete set, and Mrs. Weasley, who has always admired Gilderoy Lockhart, should now know that idols can't be eaten.
With Ginny, who just started school this year, they need to buy five complete sets of Lockhart's books, and no more than other textbooks, Lockhart's books are not second-hand.
"Oh, we'll have a way," said Mrs. Weasley, but her face was worried, "I think Ginny has a lot of things that can be bought second-hand. ”
"Oh, you're going to Hogwarts this year?" Harry asked Ginny.
Ginny nodded, her fiery red hair at the roots, but Maple noticed that Ginny's embarrassment was not only shy, but also her inferiority and sadness when Mrs. Weasley had just told Harry that she was going to buy second-hand goods.
