Chapter 399 Two old spells

Wizards cannot live without magic wands, and Ollivand is the best wand craftsman, which makes his status look a bit unique. Even if the wizards may never step into this wand store again after purchasing their wands, they will never forget Ollivand's smile with encouragement and the happy moment they shared with the wands. In addition, Ollivand is a friendly and uncontested person, so everyone will become his good friend.
Farage Nigel is a busy man who claims to be the "whole Ministry of Magic" the most diligent worker besides the minister. However, those familiar with him know that his enthusiasm will only burst out completely when dealing with work that may be conducive to separating the wizarding world from the main world of the earth.
A letter from Ollivand inspired his enthusiasm. He asked the house elves to go to the Ministry of Magic to ask for leave for himself, and then set out to the Ollivander Wand Store, Diagon Alley without even having breakfast. There was a sign "Resting" hanging on the door, and the "Prophet Daily" of yesterday was stuffed in the crack of the door. This newspaper was always delivered before work hours, and today's one was slowly approaching in the basket of newspaper boys.
"Didn't open the door all day? This is not very much like Ollivand's habit." He lowered his head and read the letter again, confirming that the words "wizarding world" and "earth" were indeed mentioned above. There was also a feeling of confusion between the lines. Did Ollivand put down his wand and spend the whole day thinking about this question?
"Since he cares, there is a chance to convince him. If he can express his support, at least he does not object, then my approval rating will rise significantly. It is time for the Ministry of Magic to change ministers."
With this idea, he sorted out his bow tie and dress into the window of the Ollivander's wand shop, and then knocked on the door with his cane. After a while, Ollivander walked out, his red eyes and black circles attracted Nigel's attention.
"Mr. Ollivander, are you not resting?" Nigel immediately stepped forward as soon as the door opened, shook hands and said enthusiastically: "Is there anything I can solve your problems? No matter what it is, I will do my best."
"Come in, I have a friend who has come. We talked for a long time and didn't have a rest all day." Ollivand said: "He is very wise, and I can't figure out some questions. I want to ask you for advice."
"Oh?" Nigel is more concerned about who can be called a friend by Ollivand, but the professionalism of a politician makes him ask another thing first: "I'm happy to answer your questions. Did you call me here to get out of the earth?"
Ollivand sighed and nodded. Nigel was overjoyed, but he could only show a serious, serious, confident attitude, and any joke was unprofessional. Ollivand led Nigel into the wand shop and brought it to the workshop behind. So Feige and Shani met with this famous staunch detachment party.
"I am Feige St. Hall, next to it is my wife, Shani Hall." Although Feige remained solemn, he did not shake hands and just nodded, as if he had said hello.
"Wait a minute, you are the Emperor of the Revi Magic Empire, right?" Nigel showed a very uncomfortable state of being unexpected. He frowned and asked Ollivand, "His Majesty the Emperor is your friend?"
"He is my new friend." Ollivander gave Nigel a cup, "brilliance can dispel the cold outside."
"Thank you." Nigel took a sip and let the spicy feeling spread in his body for a while. He also took this time to sort out his thoughts. "Two gentlemen and a lady, the matter of the wizarding world leaving the main world of the earth is the internal affairs of our wizards. I cannot talk to the people of another magic empire. I am very sorry."
"I understand your caution, but can you please give me some time to explain my thoughts?" Feiqi raised his hand and called Nigel. He was not really leaving. Feiqi saw it and used the word "please" to give his performance a reward. "My magic empire also has dangers that need to be faced, and some policy of separation is also under my consideration. I do not express my opinions on the separation of the wizard. It is a humble learning attitude. I want to hear your opinions."
"If it's just an introduction, there's no problem at all." Nigel then formally sat down, put down his cup, and began to tell the story of the discrimination and oppression that the wizards suffered in their interactions with the main world of the earth, the "injustice" encountered in transactions, and the "degraded" felt in culture and other areas of life. His voice and emotion were both passionate and cited a large amount of data for support, logically complete, clear and infectious. His soul fire was also burning enthusiastically, which shows that he firmly trusted and supported this theory.
Nigel is a very good persuasionist. What he listed has even shaken Ollivand's ideas. 'Maybe I have too little knowledge and too little research, so I don't know that there are so many things behind it?' He even began to doubt the main world of Earth. 'The gradual decline of the wizard world seems to be a strategy for the main world! Otherwise, why doesn't it want the wizard world to leave and keep interfering in it?'
However, Fitch was not influenced by Nigel's speech ability, and his emotions were still as stable as Hell Glacier. Mobilizing emotions is actually the simplest of many negotiation methods and the easiest to be used. A more sophisticated method, such as a comprehensive analysis based on reconstruction logic, and a full process from raising questions to solving problems, requires stronger abilities to achieve it.
All "persuasion" that only raises questions without analyzing the causes of the problems, nor proposes solutions to the symptoms and root causes, are all deceptions. Nigel's endless talk is just to express his attitude and vent his emotions, and it is still far from persuasion!
"The Earth's main world is doing too unfair!" Feiqi sighed briefly and narrowed his emotional distance with Nigel. "Some things should be done sooner rather than later. Mobilize the wizards to prepare for war!"
"We are not going to start a war!" Nigel looked at Ollivand, and the two looked at Feige together: "We did not say that we were going to start a war."
"Independence and autonomy are obtained in or after war. If the Earth's main world bullies you like this, you should rise up and resist! Only war is the most fundamental and thorough solution!"
"Starting wars in civilized society will make the wizards more unfavorable. After all, we are not the emperor, and we cannot push the wizarding world into war with simple ideas." Nigel was almost saying that Fitch was a barbarian. "Our main method now is to negotiate."
"I have to say that your strategy is very naive. I feel sad for the oppressed, exploited and damaged wizards in the wizarding world." Feich introduced Nigel step by step into his own routine. He said: "It's like a slave negotiated with a slave owner and asked the slave owner to let himself free. The slave owner could not let all slave owners free, because then he would no longer be a slave owner. Therefore, either part of the slaves could make themselves free by sacrificing another part of the slaves, or start a war after the negotiations failed, or be wiped out completely. It is not possible to not be prepared for war, and it is even worse without the ability to break free from the shackles by oneself!"
"The main world of the earth is too powerful and it is impossible to win against it. War preparations will only intensify the status quo and make no sense."
Isn't the Creator in the Second World powerful? Feiqi is still ready for war. But he will not refute Nigel's words, because discussing war is not his main purpose. "Let me figure out one thing: if you can't beat it, is there any way to keep them from you anymore? For example, you can separate from them directly?"
Nigel showed a vigilant look, and this question seemed to have reached the sensitive limit of "discussion". Feiqi pretended not to notice the change in his expression, and explained: "If you don't have a way to force yourself to leave, why should the main world of the earth negotiate with you? Just drag you, hang you, and play tricks on you, anyway, you can't leave. Negotiations always have to have chips. Whether it's profit or loss, they can be used as bargaining chips. I'm afraid that there are no bargaining chips."
At this time, Ollivander came back to his senses. No matter how good the ideal is, there is no path to achieve it and no effort to strive for it, it is actually a fantasy.
"The ability to forcefully leave the Earth's main world? Use this as a bargaining chip for negotiation? It is indeed a good idea." Nigel also found a crisis in his theory, so he immediately started to smooth things over. "But we believe that negotiations can solve problems, and we also believe that as long as the wizards are united, they can also isolate themselves from the Earth's main world culturally, economically, and politically. We can block their thoughts and their bodies into the wizarding world!"
He shouted loudly when he couldn't explain clearly, a typical manifestation of guilt. Feiqi sighed, looked at Nigel with great sympathy and contempt, and asked, "I am a little sad. It turns out that the ability of a wizard is not on the wand, but on the mouth. I can only wish you a successful negotiation. After all, the wizarding world does not have the ability to complete the separation, so I can only talk."
"You don't understand the history of wizards, so I can forgive you for having such a misjudgment." Nigel's face was tense. He raised his head as if this could show both softness and strengthen self-confidence. "Witches have a long history. As early as three hundred years ago, when the wizard world began to merge with the main world of Earth, someone began to study. We have two powerful spells: the breakdown spell and the Sky-cutting spell. The former can break all protective barriers, and the latter can cut out unprotected spaces. With the two spells, we can of course separate from the main world of Earth!"
"Do we have these two spells?" Ollivander's expression of surprise was very real. He looked at Feich and glanced at Feich's right hand hidden behind him. He knew without looking at it that the old wand must be in his hand, and Feich must be inquiring about these two spells.
Any wand can continuously record the spells used by its owner, regardless of whether it is cast through the wand or not. The old wand is stronger than an ordinary wand, and it will also record the user, the time and place of use, the target of the spell, and even the entire casting scene. It is precisely its characteristic that allows the old wand to always choose the most appropriate method to deal with other people's spell attacks - it itself is the most experienced spell recorder, and also has the experience of the strongest wizards in history to cast spells.
Ordinary wands can use flashback spells to query casting records, but this spell is ineffective against the old wand, and only the master's soul communication can be done. Fitch first needs to know the name of the spell, then concentrate on it, use some characteristics of the soul echo spell, immerse himself in the "Successful Wizard Spell Database" of the old wand, and redirect the spell name to retrieve relevant information.
He saw the spell breaking: a wizard with no nose broke through the super-large protective barrier of a castle with this spell. Although this was a successful casting, the wizard without nose was not the owner of the old wand, so his image was very unclear and the records were somewhat incomplete. In previous history, there were few records of this spell, because with the power of the old wand, no wizard would encounter a protection that had to be broken into by breaking the spell.
However, an old man with a kind face with white beard and amiable face had cast a breaking spell many times, with the target of a ring? He completed this task, but also triggered a terrible counterattack magic. At that moment, he cast multiple protective spells, and before he could cast the Sky Cutting Spell, he was damaged by magic that penetrated all previous barriers, and from then on he entered a state of mortality.
In the days that followed, he tried the Sky Cutting Spell many times to isolate the death curse fired by the ring, so as to force himself to not die. In the history of the old wand, except for him, only two other wizards had a record of casting this magic.
Feiqi saw these two spells, but he could not cast them. He had the wand of the wizard, but his soul was the magic matrix system he invented. The wand of the wizard was just a pronunciation for him. However, he was able to experience the feeling of the wizards when casting spells through the old wand, and tried to resonate from the soul level, and finally imitated the spells. So he took out the wand and pointed to the back window of the Ollivander Wand Store Workshop: "Destroy!"
A white light flew out of the wand in a spiral shape, and suddenly stretched out in the air, and instantly hit the glass window. A white light ball exploded, and the dazzling light seemed to expose the entire room to the scorching sun. The light came and went quickly. Everyone looked closely and saw that the window was still the same window, becoming spotless and clean as new, but nothing was broken.
"Oh, my spell level is not enough. This spell breaks..." Feiqi looked at Ollivand and said, "No, this spell cannot achieve the effect it should have."
"It cannot cut the connection point between the two worlds?" Ollivand asked immediately.
Feiqi shook his head, so Ollivand understood. He had seen with his own eyes how powerful Feiqi's mana is. He could suppress his power completely without the help of spells by relying on the fluctuations of his soul. If Feiqi could not separate the wizarding world from the main world with the old wand, then no one could do it.
In other words, Nigel's so-called separation plan is not a plan, and his bargaining chips are even less a bargaining chip. The whole movement is meaningless. Even if his ideals and wishes are beautiful, no one should follow people who only reach the imagination stage in terms of action. They have beautiful ideas, no methods, and lack abilities. Isn't this a child?
