After Cedric, it was Victor Krum.

Crum drooped his round shoulders and walked listlessly towards Mr. Ollivanders.

He slipped his wand over and stood there with a frown, his hands in the pockets of his robe.

It is clear that he and Mr. Ollivander are now in the same condition.

"Hmm!" Mr. Ollivander said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's Grigovich's product. He said flatly.

"Grigovich is a great wandmaker, although I don't really agree with his style, but."

Mr. Ollivander did not say that Grigovich was one of the two largest wandmakers in Europe, along with Ollivanders.

"Very good!" He raised his wand and flipped it upside down in front of his eyes, examining it carefully.

"Hornbeam wood, containing the dragon's heart chord, right?" He glanced at Krum, who nodded, and Mr. Ollivander continued, "Much thicker than one usually sees, very stiff, ten and a quarter of an inch, a flock of birds!" ”

The hornbeam wand thumped like a pistol.

A flock of small birds flapped their wings out of the wand head and into the faint sunlight through the open window.

"Good!" Mr. Ollivander said, handing the wand back to Krum.

"And then Miss Stewart."

Hearing this, Koatl arrogantly walked over from the corner where she was standing alone.

Then she pulled out her wand.

"Oh! This is? Mr. Ollivanders' eyes lit up and he took her wand, "American Floral Ginwood." ”

It is an elegant and calm wand with a unique large parabolic pattern (large mountain pattern).

"The heart of the staff is—" Mr. Ollivander frowned slightly, "if I'm not mistaken, it's the horn of the horned water serpent!" ”

"Yes!" Koyatl replied coldly.

"Twelve-foot long, covered in scars, kid, I don't think it's your wand!"

"It belongs to one of my ancestors!"

Hearing this, Mr. Ollivander's voice changed and said solemnly: "I must emphasize that it is the wand that chooses the wizard, even if it is a member of the family who is related by blood, the wand cannot be passed down as an inheritance.

Haven't you noticed that every time you cast a spell, you get a slight sense of resistance? ”

"It's overcome." Koyatl was unmoved, she stood in place, like an island cut off from the world.

"Overcome?" Mr. Ollivander frowned slightly, he raised the wand in his hand, stopped under Koyatl's eyes, pointed to a small crack on it, and said, "This wand is rejecting you, and if you use it forcibly, it will cause damage to the wand, and I don't think it will last long." ”

Koyatl was noncommittal, she simply took her wand from Mr. Ollivanders' hand, and then silently turned around and re-isolated herself.

Seeing this, Mr. Ollivander could only sigh slightly, as a staff maker, all he could do was admonish. After all, he couldn't snatch a wand from a wizard.

Hey - sometimes you have to choose to respect the fate of others, the fate of the wand.

"Alright, Miss Granger, it's your turn."

The last one was Hermione.

Needless to say, her wand was the most shiny of all the people present, which may have something to do with her Muggle background, so she took great care of her wand.

"It's my product again!" Mr. Ollivander said, "The vine wood, the dragon's nerve is nine and three-quarters inches. Oh! Your wand is in good condition, kid. This is commendable. ”

On the side, looking at the joy on Ollivander's face, Owen inexplicably remembered a sentence, "Treat a wand like a lover?" ”

“.”

Hearing this, Mr. Ollivander turned his head to look at him, and his good mood was half gone!

However, after reviewing what Owen said a few times, I found that although this was vulgar, it was not unreasonable.

"A lover can't follow a wizard for the rest of his life." Mr. Ollivander said blandly, "But that's exactly what it means. ”

Then, he turned back to Hermione's wand, "The Druits classify any plant with a woody stem as a tree, and wands made from vine wood have such special properties, so I'm happy to follow the old Druith tradition and divide them into trees.

Grapevine wands are special, and I have studied them with great interest, and I have found that the owners of grapevine wands are almost always people with great ambitions, extraordinary vision, and people who think they know everything have nothing to say.

Grapevine wands are strongly attracted to their hidden personalities, and they are more sensitive to the wand master than any wand made of wood.

The wand made from the dragon's heart nerve is the most powerful and the spell cast is the most dazzling.

A wand with it as a core is more capable of learning than other wands. Although they are receptive to changing hands if the new owner defeats the original Wandmaster.

Wands that use dragons as raw materials are usually the easiest to bow the knee to the dark arts.

However, they do not voluntarily drift away from the dark arts.

It is also the most accident-prone of the three cores, and its performance is the most unstable. Mr. Ollivander said flatly.

Only gradually, his gaze deepened, "Have you been practicing some kind of very powerful spell lately?" ”

Hearing this, Hermione was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes sir." ”

"Then I must warn you, beware of falling into the abyss of dark magic, this wand has some signs that I don't understand, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but I've seen it before.

The dragon's heart nerves become unstable when trying powerful spells, which can cause you to spend more time practicing. ”

He frowned, "You're destined to be a big man, Miss Granger, as you can tell from your wand, but if you want to go further down the path of magic, then I would suggest you change your wand." ”

"No, it's easy to use, and I love it." Hermione retrieved her wand.

Put it back in your pocket.

"Well, if you insist!" Mr. Ollivander did not force Miss Granger that the wand's talent was not fixed from the moment it was made, it would slowly change according to the habits of its master, becoming more suitable for him.

That's why wizards are much more comfortable with their wands.

Miss Granger's wand had apparently undergone this change, but for a moment he didn't know if it was towards the sun or hell.

After examining the wands for the five warriors, Mr. Ollivander slowly got up, nodded at Dumbledore, and turned to leave the place.

There's dirt in the castle!

He didn't want to stay here.

At this moment, Dumbledore suddenly spoke, and he looked at Owen, "Show your wand to Mr. Ollivander as well." ”

Hearing this, Owen nodded

Of course the old headmaster would have said this.

How to say it - because his wand has undergone some minor changes.

He walked over, pulled his wand from the pocket of his robe's lining, and handed it to Mr. Ollivander.

"This?" Mr. Ollivander stopped and took Owen's wand, his eyes glinting with doubt.

"Is this a recent change?"

"Half a year." Owen said lightly.

In fact, it was from the time he began to master ancient magic that his wand changed somewhat.

At first, Owen only noticed that his wand seemed to be getting clearer.

But then, for a few months, he was surprised to find that some kind of crystallization began to grow in the position of his wand, and the crystals 'ate' part of the wood, and now his cane was half crystallized, half wood.

The two sides are entangled in spiral suits, and they look very amazing.

Naturally, this kind of change caught Owen's attention, but his wand hadn't changed in casting for months, and even- he felt that his magic was a little smoother, so he didn't care about it.

"I remember, this is elderberry, phoenix tail feathers, fifteen inches long!" He frowned, "Elderberry is the rarest form of wand wood, and has a reputation for causing great misfortune, and it is trickier to use the elderberry wand than any other wand.

They possess great magical powers, but they disdain to accompany their masters, who are no better than others. Most wizards who wield elderberry wands are in the spotlight, no matter how long they have held them. ”

"But—" Suddenly Mr. Ollivander paused.

"The wand as a magic prop that penetrates the magic power, the most taboo is the center break, which will not only destroy the heart of the wand, but also weaken the transparency of the magic power, the ancient wand maker has experimented with pouring Mithril into the center of the wand, as the best metal material for magic activity in the wizarding world, its addition not only does not make the wand more transparent, but it is frequent.

Therefore, most of the wands made by me will not have too cumbersome patterns on the surface, and they are mainly straight, and its biggest function is to protect the wand from breaking. ”

He waved his wand suddenly, but nothing happened.

Everyone else's wands work fine in Mr. Ollivander's hand.

Even the Elder Wand can cast spells in the hands of others, but it can't be approved by it, and it can't be used to its full strength.

But Owen's wand—

"This-" A hint of surprise flashed in Mr. Ollivanders' eyes, "Are you sure this wand can still be used?" ”

It was obvious from the staff that the crystals had eaten away at the wand's core, and normally the wand was useless. It's impossible to cast a spell, and it's almost indistinguishable from a branch on the side of the road.

But - in Owen's hands.

He stepped forward and took his wand in a demonstrative manner, his right hand gently downward, and a silver half-moon glow appeared at the end of the wand.

"Strange! It's a surprise! Mr. Ollivander excitedly said, "You know what? My grandfather, or perhaps my grandfather, wrote about this wand in his notes.

Only its owner can use a half-crystal wand. ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Owen became interested, and he could probably guess who it would be, it was none other than the heir to ancient magic from the previous generation.

"It's a powerful wand of purple wood, with thirteen inches of unicorn tail hair, that once belonged to a wizard hero."

"Wizard Hero?" Owen's eyelids jumped, this evaluation is not low.

Titles such as Wizard Hero can be achieved by saving the wizarding world, such as Theseus Scamander, the elder brother of Newt, who was made a war hero by wizards because of his achievements in the First Wizarding War (a feat from his grandfather).

Characters like this will definitely go down in history.

But—Owen had never heard of anyone receiving such a title as 'Wizard Hero'.

It's not written in the history of magic!

"You won't know her." Mr. Ollivander saw the confusion on the faces of Owen and the other young wizards.

Then, with a look of regret, he said, "But she helped the wizard win a war." ”

"What war?" A curious Miss Granger approached.

She loved the feeling of setting aside the unknown history of wizards.

Especially after the World Cup, when she learned that The History of Magic was not a comprehensive record of wizarding history, she liked to collect these kinds of stories even more.

This helped her gain a deeper understanding of the wizarding world.

"The First Goblin War, of course, now people prefer to call it the First Goblin Rebellion!"

"Rebellion? War! Owen repeated it a few times, and immediately tasted the conspiracy behind these two words, changing war to rebellion, not only reducing the influence of the actual war in terms of literal expression, but also easily reducing someone's merits, after all, rebellion is just a rebellion, and it sounds very light.

"She did something that was considered taboo to wizards at the time, so much so that her exploits were concealed by the Ministry of Magic, and my ancestor's notes were kept secret, the only thing that was certain was that after the war, she suddenly disappeared from the world, and no one ever saw her again.

And her wand is a wand that was originally normal, but then turned into a half-crystal. ”

"Do you know her name?" Hermione asked curiously.

As long as you know the name, no matter how difficult it is, you can always find some clues.

"Oh! Let me think! Mr. Ollivander tilted his head and thought for a moment, "I know her last name, a pure-blood wizard.

Oh! As I remember, her name was, Shanny, Shanee Maeve Weasley. ”

"Weasley?" Owen and Hermione looked shocked at the same time.

"Ron's family?"

"Yes, she's a member of the Weasley family."

"This—" For a moment, thousands of thoughts flashed wildly through Owen's mind, and vaguely, he seemed to have caught something, but in an instant, that feeling disappeared.

In short, this news gave him a whole new direction, about the direction of the Weasley family treasure.

"Shanie Weasley?" Miss Granger also muttered the name.

She hadn't heard of the name.

They'd written a history of the Goblin Rebellion before, and Hermione had been looking it up in the library.

But - the name.

Hermione swore she hadn't seen it in any of the books.

If what Mr. Ollivander said is true.

So—how could a wizard hero who could end a war end up in an unknown state? What's going on here?

Thinking about it, Hermione tilted her head and glanced at Owen.

Could this Weasley have something to do with Weasley's treasure?

If so, isn't that saying that the secret about her lies in Hogwarts Castle?

Vaguely, Miss Granger sensed a great conspiracy.

"What a sad story."

Just as Owen and Hermione were lost in thought.

Dumbledore stood up from the referee's table and said to them, "I don't even have a glimpse of all the tragedies that history has buried. ”

"Okay, now you can go back to class, maybe it's more right to go down and eat, they're going to be out of class soon!"

"What, it's finally over?!" Bagman also stood up, having been drowsy there while Mr. Ollivander checked his wand, but now became extremely excited, "Camera, Dumbledore, photography!" The referee and the warrior will take a group picture, and the two children can also come, what do you think, the little wizard with the camera. ”

He's talking about Colin.

As the flash fell, the image of the crowd fell on the photo.

The image that carries history will eventually become history itself.

——————

Regarding the interview, it was printed the next day.

The next day, the Daily Prophet and the Contrarian reported on the tournament and the interview.

The report caused a great sensation and repercussions in the wizarding world.

This has been the hottest topic in the past few months, apart from the World Cup.

Of course, in addition to the sudden resumption of the tournament that had been suspended for a hundred years, the most important thing for English wizards was that the heir of Gryffindor was also involved in the tournament.

"Daily Prophet" is dedicated to gossip, what Crem's ex-girlfriend, Fleur's hundred suitors, the resentment behind Cedric's loyalty, and so on.

Especially the inking of Miss Granger.

Except that it was almost a mythical story.

She focused on the love life of the Gryffindor heir.

In her portrayal, Miss Granger is the owner of a fish pond and maintains an ambiguous relationship with a number of boys.

Rita Skeeter didn't dare to say Irving's name directly, but she also beat around the bush to a certain Hufflepuff wizard.

Harry, for example, is much more unscrupulous.

Gryffindor, but all the boys you can name seem to have developed some kind of underground romance with Miss Granger.

In short, Rita Skeeter has a knack for attracting people's attention.

Of course - this laid the foundation for her.

How a certain little witch who has now dared to go to the principal's office to steal something will take revenge on her in the future, that's another story.

Compared with the "Prophet Daily", "Singing Against the Tune", which has always been out of tune, is reliable this time

Owen is in charge of sorting out the outline, Luna is in charge of writing, and he is in charge of reviewing the manuscript.

This makes their essays both vivid and rigorous.

The report details the lives of the five warriors and their hopes for the team to win the championship.

And focused on introducing the schedule and format of this tournament for ordinary wizards.

It looks like a serious newspaper.

Offense and defense are easy to shape, and they belong to yes.
