Hogwarts The Dark Arts Awakening

The question of whether wizards can use multiple wands at the same time was briefly mentioned in the seventh volume of the original book.

Harry Potter, the famous natural swordsman and physical wizard, once used three wands seized from Draco at the Malfoy Manor to attack Fenrir Graeber, the most ferocious werewolf in the world, with a stun spell. Damn it, just fly it away.

This is called a triple spell in the original text, leaving many readers with a broad space for fantasy——

Since young wizards like Harry can use three wands at the same time to fire the coma spell, can legendary wizards such as Voldemort, Dumbledore, and Grindelwald combine a larger number of wands to fire more powerful magic?

For example, Avada Gatling, water cell turbine washing machine, Lihuo brand multi-rail rocket launcher, etc. Are there any strange things mixed in?

In the past few years, Jerry has done some exploration on the use of wand combinations, but it has not been very smooth, and he has not been able to produce practical results so far.

The problem mainly lies in the stability of spell casting and the output power of magic power: different wands will interfere with each other when the wizard casts spells, and using multiple magic spells at the same time also means that matching magic power needs to be output.

Jerry already had some ideas for these two difficulties, but he was still a complete novice in wand making.Therefore, he decided to ask Mr. Garrick Ollivander, the top staff maker at the time, for his opinion.

It would be great if you could get some enlightening insights.

The atmosphere in the wand shop was originally quiet and mysterious. Everyone was waiting for Jerry to choose his wand, but in the end they waited for this answer.

Hermione had spent a lot of time testing her wand, and the Grangers thought Jerry had done the same.So after entering the wand shop, they opened the various books they purchased from the bookstore and read while waiting.

The Grangers did this not just out of interest in reading, but to increase their understanding of the wizarding world.The unpleasant experience during today's shopping inevitably made them have many doubts in their minds.

Since they don't quite understand the relationship between wands and wizards, the Grangers naturally don't respond to Jerry's question.What's more, their attention is currently attracted by a history book titled "The Rise and Fall of Dark Magic".

As the name suggests, this book takes the history of black magic as its theme and revolves around a group that is passionate about black magic.

The terrorist organization known as the Death Eaters in the book, as well as their mysterious leader, made the Grangers shudder.

In the previous reading, I had a basic understanding of the composition of the Granger family's wizarding society, and learned about the specific classifications of pure-blood wizards, mixed-blood wizards, and hemp wizards.

Therefore, after discovering the existence of Death Eaters, a terrorist organization in the wizarding world that advocates pure blood supremacy and is keen on persecuting Mock wizards, the Grangers were naturally frightened.

With a series of unpleasant experiences in the past, they naturally couldn't feel at ease about their daughter's journey to learn magic, and they had the idea of ​​taking their daughter back.

Anyway, according to what Professor McGonagall said when she came to the door, as long as the child pays attention to confidentiality and does not suppress his own magic power too much, there will be no big problem even if he does not go to Hogwarts.

Before the Grangers could formally discuss this issue with their daughter, their family of three saw the ending of the leader of the terrorist organization - while murdering a baby named 'Harry Potter', he was killed by the baby. …

This record seemed absurd no matter how you looked at it. The Granger family couldn't believe it, and they even began to suspect that they had bought a book of bad jokes.

In order to find out the specifics of this matter, the Granger family was immersed in history books such as "A History of Modern Magic" and "Important Magical Events of the Twentieth Century". Naturally, they had no time to pay attention to Jerry's activities. .

Dumbledore, who had brought Jerry shopping, was troubled by the answer of "want it all" again.

Based on his observations along the way, Dumbledore felt that the young man had a good temperament and showed a willingness to help others.

The only problem is that Jerry always tends to choose 'I want it all' and never lets go of the things he likes easily.

'Could it be that this is the so-called young mind? 'Dumbledore fell into thought.

As for Ollivander, the owner of the wand shop, he was also a little distressed when faced with this request from his customer, and his eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously.

"You are really popular with wands. Wands with phoenix feathers as the core are always the most picky when choosing their owners, but you tamed it almost the moment you came into contact with it. The other two wands admitted that you are faster than The former is faster."

"Oh, it's really amazing. You will probably have an extraordinary future, right? At least that's what these three wands think."

After a pause, the wand master continued to speak, with some hesitation in his silver eyes. "As the owner of a wand shop, I would certainly be happy to sell a few more wands, especially if they all like you."

"There is no doubt that they all chose you. If I don't sell them to you, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a new owner for them, especially the holly wood unicorn hair wand."

Jerry originally thought that the dust had settled, and was about to ask Ollivander about the combination of multiple wands.

But I heard the other party change the topic, "But, as a wand maker, I have the obligation to find the most suitable wand for you. I'm afraid, we have to do more detailed tests, and we can't try them one by one this time... …”

"Sorry, what does this mean?" Jerry asked instead of delving into the issue of using multiple wands, focusing on the trouble at hand. "Didn't these three wands all choose me? They should all be suitable for me!"

"Yes, they all chose you. It's really rare." Ollivander held the three wands in his hands and examined them one by one. "Beech wands like smart young people and well-informed elders; Maple wands appeal to aspiring wizards, such as travelers or explorers; holly wands tend to be protective, especially when paired with unicorn tail hair.”

"I said before that it is the wand that chooses the wizard. However, even if the wand is not recognized by the wand in his hand, the wizard can still use it to cast spells." He continued to explain while checking, "But if you want to get the best effect, you still have to use it to cast spells." You have to choose the wand with which you have the closest connection."

"These connections are very complex. Initially, the wand and the wizard are attracted to each other; then they explore each other's experiences; the wand learns from the wizard, and the wizard learns from the wand; and finally, the wand and the wizard will grow to a higher level together. This point, in Maple This is particularly evident on wooden wands.”

Ollivander paused and expressed his judgment and suggestions on the previous wonderful situation: "These three wands were deeply attracted by you, so they actively accommodated and cooperated with you one by one. However, they may not necessarily He is really your best partner. For the sake of long-term development, I think it is better for you to be more cautious."

After listening to Ollivander's suggestion, Jerry lowered his head and pondered.

Not only for the small things like which wand to buy in the store today, but also for thinking about whether I should try my best to focus on a fixed wand in the future so as to deepen the connection with the other person.

Over the years, Jerry had lost count of how many times he'd hacked his gear through Bella's echoing Death Eater summons, just as he couldn't remember how many slices of bread he'd eaten so far.

Having hacked so many pieces of equipment, he had naturally experienced many magic wands. Over time, he even gained a certain understanding of the corresponding gain effects of different magic wands in system certification.

The buff effect of a wand mainly depends on the material of its core and body. The former determines the general type of buff, while the latter affects the effect and more detailed direction of the buff.

As for the core of the wand, phoenix feathers reduce the magic power consumption of casting spells and speed up magic recovery speed; dragon nerves enhance the power of magic and speed up the improvement of magic proficiency; unicorn hair favors treatment, protection and resists black magic, and is of high quality. It also comes with emergency rescue once a day, which can quickly make the seriously injured and dying people jump to life.

'These three types of buffs are very useful. For me, it is obviously better to maintain variety. After Jerry thought about it, he decided to reject Ollivander's suggestion.

Just when he was about to say 'I want them all' again, he heard Ollivander ask him in a puzzled tone: "I think you look familiar, has anyone in your family been to my store?" Buying a wand?”

Jerry raised his head and looked directly into the silver-white eyes of the other party who stared at him. "I am from the Gaunt family. I don't know much about the details of my family. However, I guess they have probably been here."

After hearing this answer, Ollivander was a little surprised.After observing the boy for a long time, he felt vaguely familiar but couldn't recall it, so he asked.

Based on the surname Gunter, Ollivander tried hard to recall his past customers, but still found nothing.

He is still very confident in his memory, so since he took over the old ancestral store, there should be no customers with this surname.

Wait, Gunter?

Ollivander dug up this family from the corner of his memory. It was actually them?Wasn’t it already dead?

The last Gaunt to visit Ollivander's wand shop were Marvolo's children, Morfin and Merope, before Garrick Ollivander took over the family business.

The way the staff maker remembered the Gaunt family was not through the "Pure Blood Directory".Although Ollivander is also included in the 28 pure-blood families, they have always been very uninterested in it. Garrick himself is a mixed-blood wizard.

The reason why he could think of the Gaunt family was because the other party once held an extraordinary wand.

Of course, it is not the mysterious and dangerous Elder Wand, but the basilisk-horned snakewood wand made and used by the legendary wizard Salazar Slytherin.

According to records, the wand was passed to Salazar Slytherin's daughter after his death, and became an heirloom of the Gaunt family.

The Gaunt family was extremely fascinated by this snakewood wand, passing it down and using it from generation to generation, even despising the craftsmanship of the Ollivander family.

Until the 17th century, this basilisk-horned snakewood wand was buried in Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in North America...

The reason why Garrick Ollivander cares about this ancient wand is not only its powerful power, but also its long history of use.

Other wizarding families also have this habit of inheriting wands, which usually occurs between father and son or brothers, either for emotional sustenance or financial reasons.

This behavior ignores the fit between the wand and the wizard, and naturally makes it difficult to form an optimal cooperation, and may even seriously interfere with the successor's ability to display his or her talents.

But Garrick discovered from the notes of his ancestors that this basilisk-horned snakewood wand made by the legendary wizard Salazar had indeed shown extraordinary power for a long time in the hands of the Parselmouths of the Gaunt family.

'Perhaps Salazar invented some advanced staff-making skills unknown to later generations; or perhaps it is because the core of the basilisk horn staff and the body of the snakewood staff are closely related to Parseltongue. '

This is a guess left in the notes by the ancestors of the Ollivander family, and Garrick himself prefers the second option.

"I have one thing to confirm with you. Can you talk to snakes? This is very important." Ollivander stared at the boy's face and said slowly.

Jerry nodded, "I have been able to talk to snakes since I was a child. I just tried it, hiss...hiss...hiss..."

In order to enhance his persuasiveness, Jerry repeated the answer in Parseltongue after replying to the other party. The gloomy and hoarse parseltongue drew everyone's attention back.

"I think I know which wand is best for you, basilisk horn, snakewood, but unfortunately..." Ollivander shook his head, "I neither have basilisk horn, nor have I ever used snakewood."

"If you want to make the best wand, you should use a powerful magical substance as the wand core, and match it with a material that complements the properties of the wand core as the wand body. I have always believed this."

Ollivander's tone was full of memories, "When I was young, I spent a lot of energy to find the three best wand cores from many materials: unicorn hair, phoenix tail feathers and dragon nerves. But. Basilisk Horns might be more suitable for you."

He continued to add: "The basilisk is too dangerous. Even dark wizards rarely have the courage to do it. Even if they do, they don't dare to let it grow to the age of growing horns. What a pity..."

"Then what should I do with my wands?" Jerry decided to bring the topic back. "In that case, I might as well buy all three wands. It would be good to tie them together."

"The wand is not a magic amplifier, but a prop to assist in casting spells." Ollivander shook his head and rejected Jerry's idea. "There are no two identical wands in the world. A wizard uses multiple wands at the same time. Due to their differences, they will inevitably interfere with each other. In addition, doing so is equivalent to casting spells multiple times at the same time, which puts a very heavy magic load on the wizard."

"In short, using multiple wands at the same time is a very dangerous thing. Once something goes wrong, it is likely to cause serious harm to the wizard." Ollivander said.

Jerry nodded repeatedly, with an expression of sudden realization, but he did not give up the idea in his heart.

'Wands made of different materials can interfere with each other, so would minimizing the differences between these wands reduce interference?At the same time, spellcasting is overloading the wizard. Can it be solved by increasing the output power of magic power? '

Many ideas popped up in his mind, and of course these attempts had to be made step by step.

According to Ollivander, basilisk horns are more suitable for Parseltongue wizards than other materials. The basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets sounds suitable, right?
