Chapter 309: A sudden turn of events: the arrival of a rich woman
A few minutes later, Professor Severus Snape walked out of his room and looked at Rhine with contempt.
"I now doubt that your admission to Azkaban is justified."
"In our magical world, this behavior is called 'breaking into the void' and is a crime."
Rhine raised his hands helplessly, indicating that he had nothing to refute.
After all, he was caught head-on.
The only thing he could be thankful for was that he didn't see Snape's hairy legs after seeing Sirius' flesh last time. .seven
This guy didn't keep the bedroom for sleeping, he just sat on the sofa and pondered the doubts in his research.
For him, a small and isolated space is the best thinking environment.
"I think we have been going in the wrong direction. Almost no wizards would consider the issue of carrying spells, right?"
Snape said what he was thinking, and the other two nodded that they were right.
For wizards, the more powerful the spell, the better the effect. Who would consider reducing the power?
That is simply against our ancestors!
So this is really not a problem with Flamel's level. His ability to reduce the power of a spell to a level that can sustain a small firearm is unmatched by other wizards.
Even Snape, who is considered a genius in this area, would find it difficult to solve this problem.
However, in the process of learning how to dismantle this curse, he absorbed a lot of Flamel's magical knowledge, so he also put a lot of thought into the solution.
"Why don't we consider..."
Snape looked at the people.
"How about finding a solution through materials?"
???
The other people were stunned at first, and then suddenly their eyes lit up.
That's right!
Based on Muggle weapon manufacturing principles, apart from those advanced aerodynamics, etc., the most basic issues are nothing more than materials science.
Under the impact and friction of Muggle ammunition, metal is undoubtedly the most suitable.
However, this material is not resistant to magic. It must go through very complex selection and tempering to obtain a metal material suitable for magic.
This is why every magic product that has anything to do with metal can be called an artifact.
But if it is used in mass production, it will simply be too much money...
Burnt.
"Does anyone know anything about the selection and processing of wand materials?"
Rhine hesitated for a moment and asked several people.
Although he was asking about several people present, his eyes actually stayed on Flamel alone.
I wonder if the study of alchemy also includes the making of wands?
Noticing that everyone was looking at him, Flamel spread his hands helplessly, saying that there wasn't much he could do about it.
"The manufacturing of wands is almost monopolized by a few families, and... this is the basis for people's true livelihood."
In his 700 years of life, he had indeed dabbled in research on wand materials, but he had never seen the core material processing methods.
After all, this thing is considered an arms business, or arms technology that cannot be made public.
28 Among the Saints and countless pure-blood families around the world, Ollivander and others remain standing because they are indispensable.
Otherwise...it would have become extinct long ago.
Thinking of the nagging old man, Rhine didn't think he had the ability to get the formula for the wand material from the other party.
But if the material is completely entrusted to an outsider like Ollivander, it will obviously be subject to the other party's control.
If these years of living in the magical world have taught Rhine something, it is that you should never be controlled by others on important things... especially if there are secrets that should not be disclosed.
Just like Dumbledore being restrained by Grindelwald.
The question is, Lao Deng was controlled by Lao Ge, at least because of love, right?
Rhine is controlled by Ollivander, why?
"Are there no other channels in this world, perhaps all the technology for making wands?"
Faced with everyone's hard thinking, Rhine had some doubts about whether he should lower his goals.
Otherwise, is it okay to just use TEC-9?
But as a person with a Chinese soul, Rhine's phobia of insufficient firepower really broke out at this moment.
His questions to everyone can be said to be somewhat unreasonable.
But everyone's tolerance for him is still quite high. After all, everyone here knows how much pressure Rhine is under, no less than those who are kept in the dark.
Even Snape showed quite good consciousness at this time and said that he would continue to find a solution to the curse, and Morticia said that he would continue to assist.
Flamel...
He said he would give Ollivander a beating to see if he could find a solution.
But based on his understanding of the old boy, he would probably slap him with a playful smile and then say nothing.
Over the past hundreds of thousands of years, the Ollivander family has been treated like this by people who coveted the knowledge of wands.
It can be called the most resistant family in ancestral history.
The reasons behind it are heartwarming.
Even Mr. Weasley put down his pointless welding work and began to think about whether his family had enough kinship with the Ollivander family.
With the excellent bloodlines of the two fertile families, Black and Weasley, he felt that he should be able to find a place where the two families could be connected.
But, among the children in his family, who can take on the important task of amusing the old man so as to have "relative exchanges"?
Ron?
Mr. Weasley instantly expelled his stupid son from his mind and chose the beautiful girl and the boss Ginny.
……
Rhine searched all night but found nothing, which was to be expected.
But when one problem is not solved, another problem is highlighted, which makes people inevitably upset.
After leaving the Whomping Willow, Rhine did not rush back to Hogwarts Castle, but walked around the campus late at night.
The late summer wind blew against his face, gradually calming down Rhine's thoughts.
"Maleficent?"
he asked in his mind.
"Do you know the history of wands, or magic items?"
"Feel sorry."
Maleficent shook her head.
"In my impression, humans don't have a good impression of magic."
There is obviously a huge gap between the Black Forest system and the Ministry of Magic system. The Muggles they face do not need to use magic, and they themselves do not rely on these external objects to perform their skills.
This is also the reason why Maleficent did not participate in the discussion just now.
But after thinking about it, she remembered something.
"If your limitation is not limited to those small sticks, it can be broader..."
???
Rhine's footsteps suddenly stopped, and a small hope suddenly rose in his heart.
"what did you say?"
"Wand."
Maleficent transformed her own huge staff inlaid with orbs in her hand, smiled and raised it towards Rhine.
"Although we have not developed a complete theory, we have never intended to use these things for profit."
"But it is undeniable that its ability to conduct and withstand magic power is probably better than those of your petty...magic wands?"
Rhine paused for a while, then suddenly felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart.
"You understand?"
"Do not."
Maleficent poured back a ladle of cold water.
"Do I look like someone who builds his own weapons?"
My sister is from a kingdom!
Rhine was silent and burst into tears, wishing he could immediately kneel down in front of the queen.
"My lord the Dark Queen."
"Please take care of me!"
"My little brother does a good job and is not clingy. I just want some technical support!"
