The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

In a huge workshop laboratory, the instruments and furniture that were originally arranged in an orderly manner were now messily placed in every corner, and some instruments were even obviously damaged.

A large amount of crumpled parchment and garbage were scattered on the ground. Countless alchemy formulas and graffiti were written on the walls, the floor, and even the sophisticated alchemy equipment.

The Kennedy brothers and sisters were lying on two couches tilted in the corner.

They seemed to have not washed in a long time, their hair was very messy, and their bodies were stained with many brown stains.

What irritated Link the most was that there were a large number of wine bottles placed densely next to the two sofas that had been used.

"call--"

Link took several deep breaths and finally suppressed the anger in his heart.

He couldn't figure it out.

This experimental workshop was fully utilized and was only used by the Kennedy brothers and sisters for no more than a month.

How could it be ruined like this?

It seems that Link opened the door and brought in the cold wind.

Little Kennedy, who was lying with his legs crossed on the sofa, suddenly groaned, then he sat up with difficulty on the sofa and glanced towards the door.

The angry gazes of Little Kennedy and Link collided without any warning.

The air suddenly froze.

Little Kennedy's originally dilated pupils suddenly stared, and then quickly widened.

At the same time, the muscles on his face twitched and gradually twisted into a frightened expression.

"what--"

Little Kennedy finally screamed.

"What happened!"

Big Kennedy was so frightened that he jumped up from the other sofa.

After looking around for a while, he breathed a sigh of relief again when he spotted Link standing at the door.

"It's Link."

Big Kennedy lay down again as he spoke.

Seeing this scene, the cold light in Link's eyes became a little heavier.

With a thought in his mind, the originally closed doors and windows opened automatically.

The wind and snow instantly poured into the test workshop, driving away all the warmth and completely waking up the thinly dressed Kennedy brothers and sisters.

They picked up the dirty robes on the ground and draped them around randomly. They were about to complain, but they heard Link slowly say in an extremely cold tone:

"Is this how you fool around at work?"

Little Kennedy had long since returned to his original shy self, huddled in a corner.

Kennedy stiffened when he heard this, and finally turned around to look at Link, and managed to squeeze out a smile and said:

"Misunderstanding, boss! We have all been working hard! As for these..."

Kennedy glanced at the wine bottles on the ground, and said with a twinkling look, "These are all celebrations after successful research!

That's right!That's it!

Our research made a breakthrough last night!

So we celebrated! "

"Oh, really?" Link said expressionlessly, "Then what exactly have you researched?"

As soon as Link finished speaking, Kennedy couldn't wait to speak.

Unexpectedly, Link continued:

"Don't try to fool me with some specious and complicated theories. Don't forget, you two are not the only alchemists serving the Foley family.

I'm honestly really disappointed in you guys.

If you can't produce some results this time,

Your work tasks and work location may have to change.

Hmm... What do you think about going to Black Africa to expand the alchemy market there? "

After hearing this, Kennedy's expression finally became horrified.

Link has never been much of a philanthropist.

As early as when he officially started investing in the Kennedy brothers and sisters and this workshop laboratory, he had already signed a 20-year employment contract and a lifetime non-competition agreement with the Kennedy brothers and sisters.

Therefore, Big Kennedy knew very well that if Link said he was going to throw them to Black Africa, then they would definitely not be able to go anywhere else after graduation.

Just after imagining those terrifying shamans, witch doctors and cannibals in Black Africa, Kennedy couldn't help but shudder.

The chill that Link gave him was even more penetrating than the wind and snow outside.

Driven by this strong pressure, he almost crawled towards the workbench, lifted up the black cloth covering it, and stuffed the contents into Link's hands.

Link's eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

What he was holding in his hand at the moment was something about 2 meters long and similar in shape to a long sword.

The difference between it and a real long sword is that its blade is entirely composed of a hollow 'steel pipe'.

And on the dark surface of the 'steel pipe', there are dense ancient magic texts carved on it.

As for its hilt, it is a huge mass of iron composed of various precision instruments.

Because there is no outer shell, Link can clearly see the densely packed gears and a large number of cables.

Overall, this 'sword' has quite the steampunk style in Link's impression.

Big Kennedy kept moving, reaching out and tinkering with the sword-hilt instrument for a while, then took out a huge vest, connected it to the wires in the instrument, and put it on Link's body.

"Boss, try pressing the trigger on the handle!"

Big Kennedy said excitedly while helping Link turn around and aim at an alchemy doll in the corner not far away.

After some operations, Link's face, which was driven by Occlumency, began to twitch in a rare way.

Let the boss test it out with such a weird device that is obviously a prototype.

Such people should have been expelled from ordinary companies or organizations, or even exiled to black Africa.

But looking at Big Kennedy's hot eyes full of expectation, Link finally pulled the trigger with a cold expression.

next moment.

Link only felt that the originally stable magic power in his body suddenly had a slight change.

They began to become more and more active, and then were pulled out along the vest that Link was wearing, and finally poured into the 'strange sword' in Link's hand through the densely packed wires.

hum-

The gears in the hilt of the 'Strange Sword' began to rotate rapidly, and the ancient magic words engraved on the hollow steel pipe began to flash with a blue magical aura.

In the magic perception field of Link's super-sensory spell, the magic power extracted from Link's body is being continuously recompressed and reshaped in the hilt of the sword, and finally poured into the hollow steel tube for final acceleration processing...

Finally, a ball of orange-red fire shot out from the hollow steel pipe, hit the alchemy doll not far away, and exploded into a sea of ​​fire.

Seeing the doll and the entire wall slowly becoming blackened by the sea of ​​fire, Kennedy jumped excitedly and said:

"Oh!~ You are truly a boss! You can have such great power!"

Kennedy's compliment was not a deliberate pandering to avoid being assigned to black Africa, but was sincere.

This can be seen very clearly with the Legilimency spell.

But at this time, Link couldn't laugh.

He looked at Big Kennedy silently until the excited smile on Big Kennedy's face gradually stiffened. Then he raised the still hot 'strange sword' in his hand and said:

“This kind of power is at most the level of an ordinary adult wizard.

But in order to cast the blazing spell just now, this weird machine sucked nearly one-tenth of the magic power out of my body.

Do you know how many spells of the same intensity can be emitted with one tenth of the magic power? "

When Kennedy heard this, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said:

"Boss, this is still a first work after all. It is normal for the energy conversion rate to be low. We will definitely improve it in the future!"

Link shook his head.

He was not optimistic about JFK's explanation.

Strictly speaking, this is actually a large special wand.

It's just that the real wand uses the ultra-high conductivity material of the wand core and the wand body to assist the wizard in casting spells.

During this period, the wizard also needs to control the magic power independently to cast the spell.

The device created by the Kennedy brothers and sisters simply omits the last step that the wizard needs to do.

In other words, the wizard using this device is purely a magic battery.

You only need to input magic power into the instrument, and then the instrument will run the magic circuit according to the predetermined program to form a fixed magic spell.

Link had to admit that the Kennedy siblings were indeed gifted to have such an idea and turn it into a physical object.

If all goes well, this set of instruments can directly bridge the gap between ordinary wizards and elite combat wizards such as Aurors and Strikers.

Because they have mastered the technique of silent spellcasting without any reason through this set of instruments, which is also the kind with super high rate of fire.

But the problem is that the energy conversion rate of this experimental work can no longer be described with such superficial words as 'low'.

With such a huge amount of magic power in Link's body, this instrument can only be used to fire ten not-so-powerful spells. The effect of using it by an ordinary wizard can be imagined.

Not only that.

Although Link, as a potion master, didn't know much about alchemy, he could still recognize that the hollow steel tube on the 'Strange Sword' was entirely made of ultra-rare material such as mithril obsidian alloy.

But even with such expensive consumables, the firing of the blazing curse just now still made the entire hollow steel pipe hot and red.

This means that not only is the manufacturing cost of this thing extremely high, but the firing rate is also pitifully low.

It is estimated that solving these two problems is more difficult than creating this groundbreaking trial work.

Link took off this set of equipment and said:

"How are you going to optimize it? Are you going to fill this hollow tube with a 'wand core' like an ordinary wand?"

"You can actually tell that this is based on the structure of the wand?" Big Kennedy was obviously taken aback by Link's erudition. He turned around and said with some disappointment, "This is indeed a route that can be tried, but in this way The cost is simply too high.”

'You also know the cost is too high? '

Link rolled his eyes and complained in his mind.

But at this time, little Kennedy, who had been hiding under the sofa shyly and silently, suddenly popped up and said softly:

"We now want to try to optimize the magic circuit composed of ancient magic texts. If it goes well, as long as the magic circuit is good enough, not only the magic power conversion rate can be improved, but the overall manufacturing cost can also be reduced."

Hearing this, Link took a deep look at little Kennedy, and immediately made the shy little girl retract her head.

The other party's idea of ​​​​optimizing the magic circuit is indeed right.

But as Link had thought before, it was too difficult to do so.

This is simply creating a new curse out of thin air!

And it's at the same level as the Patronus Curse and the Fierce Fire Curse!

However, it is good for the Kennedy brothers and sisters to have this kind of dream, and Link feels that he should try to support them as much as possible.

Thinking of this, the dark clouds on Link's face gradually dissipated. He pointed to the instrument on the ground with a smile and said to Big Kennedy:

"Yes, it seems that you are not lazy. But how did you come up with such an idea?"

As soon as he talked about this big Kennedy, he became excited again.

He grabbed Link's arm and said:

"The source of our creativity is you, the boss!"

Link tilted his head in confusion upon hearing this.

"To be precise, it was you who made us learn more about Muggle technology, which gave us a lot of new ideas!"

As he spoke, Big Kennedy ran to the other side of the workshop laboratory and suddenly opened a huge curtain.

As the curtain fell, what appeared in front of Link's eyes was a container.

The whole thing was painted red, and a huge silver-white ribbon was wrapped around it, making it look like an enlarged version of a Christmas gift box.

It's just that what's inside this 'gift box' is not regular gifts like flowers or toys, but boxes of guns and ammunition neatly stacked!

"Boss, take a look!"

Big Kennedy picked up an AK-47, inserted the magazine with great skill, and fired a burst of fire at the alchemy doll that had just been bombarded by the fire spell. "Isn't this much easier to use than a magic wand?"

Link was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

He did give instructions to the Kennedy siblings to learn more about Muggle technology, but he never expected that the Kennedy siblings had just gone out for a run and got him an AK-47.

The key is how did they get so many back?

If these things are sent to black Africa, are they enough for the small countries there to fight a small war?

Are Muggle society's control over arms so lax?

Suddenly, a symbol engraved in his DNA suddenly flashed out of his mind.

"Did you go to the Bear Country?"

Link said quickly.

Hearing this, Kennedy was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Yes, that place was separated a few years ago and life was very difficult. We couldn't stand it anymore so we used magic to move some supplies to them."

He pointed to the container (Christmas gift box version) behind him and said, "In the end, they gave us these things as Christmas gifts."

Hearing this, Link nodded.

If that's the case then it all makes sense.

During this period, Mao Xiong could even dismantle and sell the assembly line for making tanks. It was really trivial to sell a container of AK.
