The latest chapter in the Harry Potter Bastard novel

Early the next morning, Solim got up and began to prepare things – in the afternoon he was going to go with Elrond to the Orvis family to see a small squib, if he could make this squib use magic, then Solim and Elrond would solve Silna’s affairs when he returned.

If there is a squib in the pure-blood wizard family, it is tightly hidden, for fear that outsiders will know, after all, in the eyes of pure-blood wizards, it is a very shameful thing to produce a squib in the family.

Solim is already very satisfied with being able to find three potential squibs, of course, if for insurance, after the success of the Orvis family, let them publicize, so that maybe there will be one or two more “experimental products”, but her sister can’t afford to wait, she is ten years old this year, next year will be the age to go to school, if Silna can’t become a wizard before eleven years old, then her future fate is not easy to say.

Regardless of the magic school, it is not accepted after the age of eleven, these schools can accept transfer students from other schools, but will not accept new students older than eleven.

There are too many wizards in the wizarding world who have not attended a formal school. Only young wizards who awaken their magical powers before the age of eleven have the value of being cultivated.

Look at the Overturned Alley, those fallen wizards, most of them are wizards who have not received formal school education, their magic awakens too late, more than eleven years old, the school does not accept them, and wizards who do not have formal education, their knowledge is not systematic. They can only learn on their own, while doing some dirty work to obtain resources to continue their path as wizards.

These wizards who do not have a formal education are not fully equipped – most of these wizards do not even know simple transfiguration, because transfiguration is arguably the most systematic learning in magic, and they do not have this condition. Most of these wizards can only wallow in potions and herbs, and some even don’t even have wands—only regular wizards can buy wands, and these wizards who are not registered with the Ministry of Magic can only live in the dark corners of the wizarding world to survive—places like Overturned Alley.

Solim didn’t want Silna to be like that in the future, although Silna was a serious Selwyn, but for pure-blood wizards, squibs were even more annoying than Muggles. The attitude towards squibs is mostly ignored, and extreme families will even kill squibs in the family to maintain the so-called “glory”.

Silna’s affairs were not procrastinating, either becoming a wizard or living as a normal person, away from everything she was familiar with. Even if the potion has no effect on Silna, in the end she can only be an ordinary person, I believe that grandpa will not ignore her. Although a series of Snape’s potions have been completed, and the effects have been shown through Filch, it is completely unknown whether it is suitable for Silna and whether it has an effect on her sister.

Silna’s affairs aside, if the visit of the Orvis family goes well, it will be extremely beneficial to Solim, and then various families will contact him one after another, asking him to solve the problem of squibs in their respective families, which will undoubtedly bring a lot of connections to Solim, and Solim will also gain a lot of favors. In this way, some people or families who want to move him have to weigh it.

The Orvis family is also an ancient pure-blood family, their herbal plantation is very famous in the industry, as long as they are potions masters, they can’t bypass the Orvis family, after all, their plantation has the largest production of precious potion materials. If this trip can help the little squib become a wizard, it will be an excellent start for Solim.

After a hasty meal at noon, Elrond set off with Solim.

To be clear: families like Selwyn don’t use Floo. The first reason is because the Floo network is handed over to the Ministry of Magic by the Presbyterian Council, and once the Floo network is connected, the location of the Selwyn family is equivalent to being exposed to the Ministry of Magic, so families like Selwyn and Orvis will not connect to the Floo network like ordinary wizard families. The second reason is because of the safety of the Floo network, once the home is connected to the Floo network, for smart wizards, they can come whenever they want, whether you unilaterally close the fireplace or not, people outside can enter and exit at any time, which is absolutely intolerable for an ancient pure-blood family.

The Cornwall Peninsula, which can be said to be the southernmost part of the entire Ying country, north of Plymouth, Dartmoor National Park hides the Orvis family estate and three plantations, this is a hiker’s paradise, of course, they are not close to the place where the wizards live, so to speak, in Cornwall, where the climate is most suitable for growing herbs, the Orvis family is the master here, and they send a large number of mature herbs to the whole of Europe every year – not just the Ying country. And there are their plantations throughout Europe, except that the estate in Dartmoor is their ancestral home, and people with status and status in the family generally live here.

Walking in the magnificent Dartmoor Public Park, Solim’s originally irritable mood couldn’t help but open. He wondered when he would go to a house of his own, and if he didn’t go back to Selwyn Castle, Solim would have nowhere to live except in the Leaky Cauldron.

It’s just that…… Pocket shy, although Solim does have some savings, but this little money can get some potion materials, if you really want to build a house, it is funny. It’s like a country after the millennium, young people gritted their teeth, bought a car to make ends meet, but wanted to buy a house? Hmph, you can’t afford to crush your teeth.

And the wizarding world does not mean that you want to build a house, find a piece of land yourself, and get some stones and wood to build it. This is to be approved by the Ministry of Magic, to examine the local situation: whether Muggles are dense, whether there is a risk of exposing the wizarding world, how big the house is to be built, what materials to use, these must be filled with a lot of information, and the final approval of the Ministry of Magic is required before you can build a house yourself. If you build a house without the consent of the Ministry of Magic, it is an illegal building, and it will not only demolish you, but also fine you, and if you don’t get it, you will have to go to Azkaban for a few days.

Even if the approval comes down, you still have to pay a large amount of gold gallons to the Ministry of Magic. Don’t say that there are no more people, you just run to the desert to build a house, and you have to pay – if the country has a desert.

“When it arrives, it’s ahead.” Elrond gestured from the sidelines.

Solim looked at the huge rock in front of him and asked, “Walk in?” ”

Elrond lifted his step and crashed into the rock – he disappeared. Solim shrugged, and the learned ones also walked into the rock.

“Isn’t that the same as the platform of nine and three-quarters?” Solim complained.

The greening of Orvis Manor is quite good, and presumably their elves are very good at pruning these flowers and plants. On the left side of the gate, Solim even saw a ghost tree – a wand made of ghost wood is the best at using soul magic, but if you use a ghost wood wand to release white magic like the Patronus Charm, you’re done. As for why Solim knows the ghost tree, of course Sguler taught well, the ghost tree belongs to the kind of plant that can never be burned with fire – the ghost tree will emit a smell after burning, and people will become ghosts after smelling it, to put it bluntly, it is dead.

Is it appropriate to just plant such a dangerous plant at the gate?

“Can’t figure it out, do you?” Elrond knew what he was thinking as soon as he looked at Solim.

“Don’t think about it, you’ll be surprised when you go in.”

At this time, an old man wearing a red wizard robe walked out of the gate.

“Old thing, you’re going to be late, hurry in, don’t grind.” Although it was a little far away, Solim couldn’t see the old man’s face clearly, but as soon as he heard the voice, Solim knew who was coming—Gilvis, a wizard who liked to fight with Elrond.

Elrond snorted, took Solim and walked to the gate, and as he went, he explained to Solim: “Remember, after you go in, no matter who asks you about the potion, you will push it on me, don’t involve the professor of your school, Jill knows the situation, but others don’t know, don’t say anything.” ”

What Elrond said, Solim did not turn a corner for a while.

“Idiot!” Elrond cursed in a low voice, “If anyone else knows that the potion belongs to Snape, what else can happen to you?” ”

With this sentence, Solim kind of figured it out.

If the potion is successful, it means that some special situation Squibs can become wizards, which also means that these Squibs families will owe Solim or Elrond a favor, if the words are leaked, everyone will go to Snape, and what about Solim? Human favors and benefits have become Snape’s, although Snape may not care about this.

But then again, it’s really not very authentic. But Solim really needs the favors and connections of these pure-blood families now, so it’s a big deal to compensate him for some potion materials in the future, or give him a few potion formulas.

When Solim saw the tree in the center of the atrium, he couldn’t walk. His eyes widened and his mouth open, revealing an extremely surprised look.

“Hahaha, I just said, every wizard who comes to the ancestral home for the first time is inevitable of this.” Gilves looked at Solim with delight.

“Boy! Back to God! “Elrond was very upset when he saw Solim gaffe in front of Gilves.” Isn’t it just a broken tree, what is rare. ”

“Fart!” Gilvis on the side was furious when he heard this, “Don’t forget what virtue you were when you first saw it!” If I hadn’t stopped it, you could have cut it down and taken it away. ”

It was really snake wood, and Solim did recognize this extremely precious tree: the famous snake wood, and the Slytherin staff was made of snake wood. There are many areas available for snake wood, whether it is potions or alchemy, you can use it. However, the most common method used by snakewood is to make a spell casting tool: a wand or a magic staff.

“I really want it!” Solim was moved, and the wizard who knew the effect of snakewood was not unmoved. A spell casting tool made of snake wood, there is no upper limit to mana when casting spells. This means that you can even use all your body’s magic to launch a stun spell. You know, most wands have an upper limit to withstand mana, and you can only use so much mana when you release a coma spell, even if more mana is injected into the wand, in the end it is only that power. But the snake wood is different, and the upper limit of the magic power of the snake wood has not been found at present, perhaps the mana level of the human wizard has not yet touched the upper limit of the mana that the snake wood itself can carry. With the snakewood wand, you can even kill people with a stun charm – provided your magic is very powerful, of course.

“Boy, if you can solve Little Flegg’s matter, why don’t I give you a snake wood.” Gilves said with a smile on the sidelines.

“Hey, the two of us, you will give one?” Elrond looked at Gilvis with slanted eyes, “Because you are still the current head of the family, so stingy, it seems that the Orvis family will be like this in the future.” ”

“Fart!” Gilves was too taunting, “What attention did you pay attention to I don’t know?” If it can really be done, send you one stick, don’t talk nonsense, let’s talk about it, if it’s a busy job in vain at that time… Hmph…,” Gilvis sneered.

“Okay, boy, come in quickly,” Elrond beckoned Solim, who was still staring at the snake wood, “get things done first, and see it as you want.” ”
