The Wizarding Journey of Hogwarts

Chapter 346 Occupational Experience in the Arcane Gold Mine
Facing the yellow sand all over the sky, after a while, the three of Bell flew over the mine.

The mine is also surrounded by a large defensive barrier, but this is just the most common defensive barrier, and its only function is to block sand and dust.

At the entrance of the defensive barrier, two special enhanced magic stone statues are guarding here.After seeing the three of Bell landing on the ground, a blue light shot out from the eyes of the stone statue, which swept across the three of them, and then the stone statue returned to the standby state.

Strictly speaking, Mars should be very safe here.It will not face the invasion of foreign enemies, and so far no signs of the existence of other creatures have been found.

But as the saying goes, don’t be afraid of [-], just in case, anyway, this special battle stone statue is not for sale, and it will keep dust in the castle, so it’s better to take it here as a facade.

Entering the mine, the knocking sound of 'jingling' constantly echoed in my ears.Looking around, you can see many magic stone statues beating on the ground or on the mountain wall.

Every now and then, a rock would be knocked down.At this time, the wizard or house elf who controls the stone statue will step forward and sift out the arcane ore from the stone.

Although the magic stone statues can knock rocks on their own, with their intelligence, they can only distinguish between sand and stones at most, and they cannot accurately select the arcane ore from a pile of stones.Otherwise, there is no need to worry about manpower at all.

Moreover, since the concentration of magic power in the atmosphere of Mars is much lower than that of Earth, the stone statue must return to the base to recharge every time it works.This also greatly reduces the rate at which ore is mined.

The wizards and house elves working in the mine had already heard the news that Bell and the three came to Mars yesterday, so no one was surprised when they saw the three walk into the mine, and no one left. own job.

It's just that compared to wizards, house elves are much more excited.This group of little guys shouted loudly, telling the stone statue to speed up mining, for fear of losing to others in front of Bell.

Unfortunately, the magic stone statues couldn't understand what they were shouting, and all of them tilted their stone heads and looked at their controllers suspiciously.

Seeing that the magic stone statue can still play like this, Shanna felt that she had learned it again.

The little girl yelled, snatched control of the stone statue from the house elf closest to the three of them, and happily experienced the miner's profession.

Seeing the pitiful gaze cast by the house elf whose stone statue was robbed, Bell smiled and waved his hand, signaling that the other party could take a rest and don't care.

Although she can see the magic stone statue every day, Hermione, who has never manipulated a stone statue, is very moved when she sees Shanna having fun there.It's just that she has a thin skin, but she is too embarrassed to directly snatch the control of the stone statue.

Of course, the main reason is that she couldn't grab it.

Fortunately, Bell also noticed the look in his girlfriend's eyes.Before Hermione could speak, he waved his hand, and asked for a stone statue from another wizard, and gave it to Hermione to play with.

"Bell, how do you tell which one is the Arcanite mine?"

Looking at the scattered gravel under her feet, Hermione was a little embarrassed.

It was only after she came here yesterday that she learned about Aujin, a newly discovered metal on Mars, for the first time.She didn't know anything about arcane ore except that she had inquired about some arcane properties from Bell.

Seeing that in just such a short time, a small pile of arcanite ore had piled up around Shanna, Hermione was a little anxious.She hadn't found one of them yet.

Scanning the gravel under Hermione's feet, Bell stretched out his hand and made a light move, and a piece of ore flew into his hand.

"If you are familiar enough with arcane ore, you can distinguish it by color. Compared with ordinary stones, arcane ore is reddish in color.

However, for novices, it is very difficult to distinguish only by color.At this time, you need to use magic to perceive.

Infuse magic into the stone and feel the magic flow through it.The higher the ore content of Arcanite, the smoother the flow of magic power.

And if it's just an ordinary rock, then the flow of magic power will feel stagnant. "

As he spoke, Bell injected a small amount of magic power into the ore in his hand, and demonstrated it to Hermione.

"But Bell, how do I know, what kind of feeling is stagnation?"

Hermione looked at Bell in bewilderment, still bewildered.

"During the Transfiguration class, we also deformed stones. You should know what it feels like to inject magic power into that kind of rock that does not contain magic ingredients at all, right?"

Bell asked.

However, when he saw Hermione's dazed little eyes, Bell knew that he was thinking too much.

On the earth, apart from the mithril made by fairies, there are no other magic metals.

Most of the magic props that Bell usually makes are made of ordinary metals.Only when making high-quality goods, some Mithril will be added in a small amount.

As for the magic props made of mithril as the main system like Qianbian, apart from the word 'prodigal', it is not enough to describe Bell's behavior.

Therefore, although Hermione often came into contact with magic metal (the magic item presented by Bell on her body) without her knowing it, she never had the experience of using transfiguration on magic metal.

Therefore, it is normal for Hermione to feel confused.

After thinking about it, Bell decided that it would be better to be simple and straightforward.After all, Hermione could tell from the occasional glances she gave Shanna that she was running out of time.

Putting the wand on his temple, Bell copied a memory from his mind.

"Stay still and don't move."

With that said, Bell threw his own memory into Hermione's brain.

After accepting Bell's memory, Hermione closed her eyes and felt for a while, then she understood the difference in feeling that Bell had mentioned before.She bent down immediately, and pointed her wand at the gravels on the ground one by one.

(To distinguish arcane ore by color, more experience is needed. Even if Bell copied his relevant memories to Hermione, Hermione would still need a long time to digest and absorb.

By the way, Bell and Shanna were able to distinguish arcane ore from ordinary rocks at a glance, and it was only through digesting and absorbing other people's memories that they could do so. )
One can distinguish the arcane ore at a glance, and the other needs to use magic power to sense one by one, so naturally, the efficiency of the latter is completely incomparable with the former.Not to mention, Shanna controls 5 stone statues, while Hermione only has 1.

But even though she knew that she was bound to lose, Hermione still did not give up, but carefully sifted through the rocks on the ground.
