Chapter 24: Silent Crisis The witcher also wants to buy a wand!

When Geralt traveled around the world in the past, Geralt heard or witnessed countless mysterious legends come true.

These rich and wonderful experiences have also taught this Wolf School demon hunter a lesson: there is no need to argue whether a legend is true or false before witnessing it with his own eyes.

If it has something to do with you, you need to be even more cautious, even if this mysterious legend sounds like a fantasy, a Grimm fairy tale and the like...

But when he saw the black-haired boy named Harry Potter, who was famous throughout the Kingdom of Cintra as the "savior of the wizarding world who defeated Voldemort", standing in front of him, Geralt still instinctively became interested in the legend.

The authenticity feels a bit absurd and incredible.

Look! The boy named Harry Potter in front of him is definitely no more than 13 years old in terms of height.

Based on the appearance analysis of his peers, it is thought that his actual age may be even younger, reduced to 12 years old, which is the age of a second-year student at Hogwarts.

Geralt, who didn't know that Harry Potter had strayed into Knockturn Alley, a neighbor's alley that sounded quite similar to "Diagon Alley" before coming to Gringotts to meet up with his companions, was in Boginbok's Dark Arts Shop. At this moment

He was looking curiously at the wizard's robe in front of him, which was covered with soot, and his face was slightly bruised from scratches. The legendary savior himself - Harry Potter.

Even Geralt found it hard to believe how the little boy in front of him defeated the notorious and notorious Dark Lord Voldemort in the North in his infancy.

After all, compared to his opponent Voldemort, who could use Avada's "Unforgivable Curse" as easily as drinking water, Geralt doubted that even if he gave the best blessings from the gods today to the infant Ha

Li, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to defeat Voldemort when he was young.

The two sides would fight at a 50-50 draw at most. Voldemort might not be able to kill Harry, who was protected by a mysterious power. On the other hand, the infant baby shouldn't have even a shred of fighting power to hurt Voldemort, who had the strength of a master of black magic...

The only possibility that Geralt could think of for Voldemort's defeat was that Voldemort, a fool, pointed the tip of his wand at himself when he cast some one-hit killing curse... But this is too ridiculous, isn't it?

Seeing that he seemed to be connected with a series of legendary characters like Hogwarts, Geralt couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion and confusion in his heart.

After all, the last time I had a relationship with the royal granddaughter of the Kingdom of Cintra named Xili through the "Law of Accident" was the last time.

As for the current situation, he never saw even a hint of fate or the power of the law of accident... This confused the demon hunter.

"Mr. Geralt, did you come to Gringotts to take on the monster hunting bounty commission for Hogwarts?"

Hagrid, the burly man standing nearby, clapped his hands happily when he heard Harry's words.

Just as the goblin teller of Gringotts was struggling to attract Geralt's attention in order to continue their long-agreed "test of strength before accepting the commission", he heard Hagrid say to it:

"There's no need to test your strength. I think Geralt, who looks like a decent witcher, will definitely be able to handle Dumbledore's commission."

Hearing what Hagrid, the gamekeeper of Hogwarts, said, the goblin teller, who had wanted to be lazy, rolled his eyes and finally agreed.

Anyway, this bounty is a large-scale bounty, and it is expected to recruit more than a dozen demon hunters for Hogwarts, and Geralt is definitely one of them.

And with Hagrid's guarantee, no matter how strong Geralt is, it won't affect Gringotts' credibility.

"Hagrid always trusts others so casually. It's not good!" Maeve heard the little girl named Hermione whisper to her companions.

While Geralt was still talking to Harry Potter, the protagonist of the Hogwarts quest line, Gu Xiaoheng took the initiative to lead Maeve to Hagrid, the middle-aged man named Arthur Weasley and the other young wizards.

He took the initiative to introduce and chat with me.

Inspired by Gu Xiaoheng's humorous words, a cheerful atmosphere filled the little wizard.

.....

After walking out of Gringotts' iconic bronze door, Gu Xiaoheng, who was busy chatting enthusiastically with the young wizards, turned his head and looked at Geralt, who had been talking to Harry Potter since the beginning.

It could be seen that Harry seemed to have asked some hard-to-answer difficult question, which made the witcher frown, looking down in thought.

"So Mr. Eternal -" Hermione, who was full of curiosity, asked Gu Xiaoheng in front of her as always, asking some questions about magical monster hunting that she could not usually learn from magic books.

There was only a pause in the booing of a red-haired companion named Ron, and everyone's eyes followed Gu Xiaoheng to look at Harry and Geralt who were talking.

"Mr. Geralt, is it true that apart from ghosts, demons and void monsters, there are no other magical monsters that are good at elusiveness? You don't have to be afraid of scaring me, just give me one more example!" Harry waved his hands excitedly.

, seemed very eager to get the answer.

"No, Harry. You gave me too few clues, and the elusive monsters are relatively rare, which makes it difficult for me to give you an accurate answer in just one bite."

"Well, thank you, sir." Harry, whose disappointment was evident, returned to his companions in frustration.

"Don't be too frustrated, Harry. Regarding the issue of the legend of the Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts, Professor Dumbledore has entrusted professionals like Mr. Geralt to solve it. You don't need to be too upset. After all, this is the responsibility of us adults.

thing."

The carefree Hagrid stretched out his big hand and touched Harry's head to express comfort, and then asked Geralt enthusiastically about their next plan.

"Mr. Geralt, we are going to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore to help Harry and the others buy books. Are you willing to come with us?"

Before he finished speaking, Arthur Weasley, a middle-aged wizard, also kindly extended an invitation to Gu Xiaoheng and his party: "If you can, I would like to invite you all to have a drink at the Leaky Cauldron Bar, as a token of appreciation for today.

Let’s celebrate a little bit when we meet!”

Facing the goodwill shown by the group, Geralt shook his head in embarrassment, and then said: "No, everyone. Thank you for your kind invitation, but my companion Eternal needs to go to the store that sells wands quickly to buy one suitable for him.

Wand. His magical talent is so powerful that even an ordinary birch wand was destroyed by his magic!"

As if to prove the authenticity of Geralt's words, Gu Xiaoheng reluctantly raised the birch wand that Geralt had given him earlier.

Unlike the previous time when the door to the Diagon Alley passage was intact, this wand, which was made of very ordinary materials and had a very ordinary magic core, looked like it had been damaged by someone. It was as tattered as a piece of firewood that had been blown apart in half.

.

Seeing this rather surprising scene, wizards and wizards, including Hagrid, gathered around in surprise, expressing various opinions while watching.

"Mr. Eternal, what did you do? Did you crush this wand?"

"Why does this wand look like it has been blown up by dynamite? It looks like it can't be repaired!"

The little wizards were chattering, which made Maeve quite helpless.

Glancing at the countdown in the reminder system, a wry smile appeared on Gu Xiaoheng's lips.

Damn it, luckily I have a good mentality, otherwise my mentality would really be shattered by the wizard's talent inspired by the Trial of Green Grass caused by this ancestor of the Wolf School.

[Warm reminder from the system: Your currently unidentified ??? talent has accumulated too many magic elements in the body. You must release an expansion spell to clear the mana every 6 hours (this spell requires a magic wand, which is included with the ?? talent)

Binding spell, but there is a chance that the wand that does not match your own will explode when you cast the spell)]

[Please follow the prompts to clear your magic power every six hours, otherwise you will turn into an "Oscurus" of unknown level after 25 minutes due to excessive magic power]

What do you think about the magical talent of the Green Grass Trial?

Gu Xiaoheng, who currently has too much magic power, must use his wand to release an expansion spell every 6 hours to clear out the accumulated magic power in his body, otherwise there will be an irreversible mutation - transforming into an uncontrollable dark magical creature "Oscurus".

"!

If an ordinary player who doesn't know the background of the game "Oracle" sees that they are about to turn into a dangerous and uncontrollable dark magical creature like the Obscurus, they may still accept it stupidly, but they don't know that they have already

Disaster is coming.

That is the Obscurus! A dark magical creature that is extremely rare to appear throughout the history of magic. It is usually a catastrophic magical creature that occurs when a persecuted young wizard is forced to suppress his own magic.

The most terrible thing is that even players who can be infinitely resurrected have difficulty controlling their own actions when transforming into Obscurus.

Just such a "completely uncontrollable" trait is enough to make you, the player, wanted and hostile by all surrounding NPC towns, and even worse, you may even be forced into a magic prison and controlled.

Faced with such an unlucky talent that can be compared to the "incarnation of a disaster star", Gu Xiaoheng, who knew very well that he could not match such a talent with just a few tools, naturally did not want to have anything to do with it.

In other words, before confirming that the "god-level prompt system" has a way for him to control this "humanoid natural disaster" level of terrifying power, he would rather obediently seek help from legendary wizards like Dumbledore and identify this mysterious wizard's talent.

Pull it down——In that case, the crisis of Obscurus will be over.

....

As a member of the army of bystanders, following Harry, Ron, and Hagrid to watch Gu Xiaoheng, Hermione instinctively felt that something was wrong.

This strange feeling of something wrong seemed to remind her of something she had overlooked.

Wait, buy a wand? The eternity in front of her is obviously a witcher as far as she knows!

With her outstanding intelligence, Hermione easily broke through the common-sense mistakes made by Harry and other wizards: they were all wizards, so naturally they thought it was not a big deal to buy a wand from a witcher who rarely interacted with them...

Wands! Whose wizard has a broken wand these days and can’t go to a wand shop and buy a new one?

Realizing this, Hermione immediately stared at Zhengyuan and exclaimed in disbelief: "Mr. Eternal, are you also a wizard? Otherwise, why would you choose to buy a wand? This... This doesn't make sense.

ah!"

"Oh, that's right! Geralt, Eternity, don't you have another level of wizard talent under your status as a demon hunter?"

After receiving curious looks from all the wizards and wizards, Geralt simply waved his hand and said "Three consecutive denials".

"I'm not, I haven't, don't talk nonsense! I'm really a serious demon hunter."

After raising his finger and pointing at Gu Xiaoheng, Geralt sighed and continued: "As for eternity, it's a long story."

oh?!…

Hearing Geralt's evasive expression about this, everyone insisted that it was just the first time for them to meet today and it was not appropriate to ask further questions.

Just when Geralt thought they could say goodbye to the lively group of wizards and wizards in front of them, the words of the red-haired wizard named Ron broke his beautiful fantasy.

"Mr. Eternal, can I go with you and witness you choosing a wand? I have never seen a witcher choose a wand."

"Bang!" As soon as he finished speaking, Ron was severely suppressed by his father, Arthur Weasley, because of his naughty nature.

[Ding! A new purple prompt has been activated: Please agree to Ron Weasley's invitation and let Harry and his party go to the wand shop with you to buy wands]

Purple reminder? Well, it seems that I am really destined to be with Harry Potter and his friends...

There was a visible and cherished reward in front of him, so of course Gu Xiaoheng refused to accept anyone who came, and he agreed to Ron's request at the speed of light.
