Chapter 95 Guardian and North Wind
In the secret classroom where he first dueled Gemma Faley, William saw her again.
After disgracing Yaxley at the Dueling Club, she's apparently been having a great time of late - honestly, William thought she'd forgotten her pact with him.
"You mean, a student wants to sell a manuscript on the Runeword?"
William sat up slightly and asked.
"It's a student's family who wants to sell it, and the asking price is not very low. I just heard about it and think you should be interested."
Gemma showed no signs of trying to steal credit.
"His father has already asked several families, but they are not satisfied with the asking price - the rune language recorded in the manuscript is true, and it is said that the effect is good.
It's a pity that not many people are still studying ancient runes, and the secrets held by those families are no worse than this manuscript, so it's not worth spending a lot of money on it. "
She explained further.
The last time the wizarding world set off an upsurge in the study of rune language, it was in the era of Grindelwald-the fire he burned in the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris reminded these pure-blood wizards of themselves. When the ancestors were prosperous.
But the ancient rune is a bit like advanced mathematics. It really doesn't matter if you work hard, you will definitely get results.
On the contrary, it was the black magic created by Voldemort that really gave them a little hope.
Until he was beaten by a Potter kid.
"I thought those families were very rich."
William chuckled lightly.
Of course he knew it wasn't true.
Since Voldemort failed to redistribute wealth, most pure-blood families have started to live by counting coins.
The young adults in the family, or simply the heirs, have entered Azkaban themselves, and the industries that have been run for many generations have also been hit hard. Coupled with the overall depression trend in the wizarding world, they have to live in order to maintain a decent life. No more effort.
If this were not the case, in the original world, Lucius would not have to sneak to Knockturn Alley to sell some temporarily unusable property.
"I never imagined that they would look like this - last night, almost all the students were crying and writing letters to their families, wanting them to take themselves back.
I thought Slytherin would run clean.But when I got up in the morning, no one left. "
Gemma glanced at William and said suddenly:
"Even the parents who love their children the most dare not let him leave the castle at this time.
They are worried that once they take the lead in doing so, they will immediately expose their weak side and make the family look not pure enough in front of outsiders.
It's even worse than a child being attacked by the heir of Slytherin. "
The fact that even Draco Malfoy was attacked by the heir of Slytherin has deeply touched their fragile nerves, and now almost no one feels that they can safely stay out of it.
"Tell me about the manuscript again?"
William took the initiative to bring the topic back.
The reason why he was eager to promote the industrialization of the basilisk was because William had never found a suitable source of raw materials for the formula that could be used to make magical metal materials found in Nicole Flamel's manuscripts, such as The fangs of the Niven snake.
A rune snake is a large three-headed snake, usually six or seven feet long, bright orange with black stripes.
It is listed as a XXXX-level dangerous magical creature stipulated by the Ministry of Magic. It is illegal to smuggle them, but it is a minor matter, but because their three heads each have their own thoughts, they often bite each other, and it is difficult to live long .
In the recipe, the fangs of the rune snake can be replaced by the fangs of other magical creatures, vipers, as long as they have enough magic power and poison - but William has searched the entire "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" and can't find a suitable substitute .
They either basically disappear.
Or simply disappeared.
Except for the basilisk.
"I brought it with me."
Gemma took out two pieces of parchment filled with small characters and placed them on the table.They seem to be the first two pages taken from a manuscript, just recording the name and function of the rune language.
"Most of them are useless, and I have already discovered a small part, but this 'Guardian' and 'Northern Wind' seem to be good."
William carefully checked their introductions.
"Guardian" is a rune language that is somewhat similar to the Iron Armor Curse, but unlike the Iron Armor Curse that summons a transparent air barrier, "Guardian" will form a barrier of general strength that is always close to the wizard's body. It will be automatically activated when it is attacked, and it will expand into a circular barrier.
Compared with the Iron Armor Curse, "Guardian" is stronger in the face of spells, because it can absorb part of the magic power of the canceled spell, and it has a higher minimum performance when facing very sudden attacks .
But the shortcomings of "Guardian" are also very obvious.
Whether it is in a dormant state or when it is attacked, it requires the wizard to allocate a part of his energy to maintain it at all times-the wizard uses one rune word, which is equivalent to using three or more spells at the same time.
"It is very suitable for enchanting."
William had this idea the first second he saw it.
As for the rune language "North Wind", it is relatively simple. It can summon a wind that moves in direction and changes in intensity according to the wizard's will.
In times past, it would be used by wizards as a way to demonstrate magic.
"I want to know how much he offered?"
William had decided to take the manuscript.
In his hands, these rune words can play a role that other wizards can't imagine.
"One copy is 980 Galleons, paid in one lump sum, and you have to sign the magic contract provided by Gringotts, which restricts you from selling it again."
Gemma spat out a big and scary price, enough to empty the vaults of countless Weasley families, and it was just the price of a copy.
Although the contract does not have functions such as curses, the goblins of Gringotts will witness this transaction. If William wants to resell in the future or the news that he has already resold is known to them, the goblins will be obliged to stop him and seek revenge. return loss.
"980 Galleons?"
William was ready to pay the money.
But he still couldn't help asking.
There are some odds and wholes in this number, it's because of the krypton gold mobile game.
"I've already paid 20 Galleons, just for these two pages." Gemma spread her hands and said, "You don't really think my surname will be useful in Slytherin, do you?
If it wasn't for the lack of money, and the secret room, who would want to sell knowledge? "
For wizard families with a long tradition, knowledge is an asset that is much more important than gold, and perhaps its importance is second only to prestige.
"But it will work soon, won't it?"
