Chapter 218 306 Hogsmeade

Turn on the talent system, cancel the echo system, cancel the specific numerical performance, character cards, and the host no longer needs the echo system to obtain special magic talents. Instead, the host can purify his own bloodline, spend experience points to add points, or use mission rewards to open corresponding talents and obtain special skills. .

The system upgrade is completed, all library passes are exchanged for experience points at the same price, the mall system is retained, and the gems are retained. All responses are converted into experience points, and compensation talents, magic vision, magic body, and third eye are opened.

The task system is updated and the latest tasks are released:

The demise of the mysterious man, as a host who wants to become the most powerful wizard, how can he tolerate such a terrorist affecting the best period of his own development? Mission, destroy the mysterious man's Horcrux (3/7) and win the final war with the mysterious man, killing the mysterious man.

The system that had been unresponsive for a long time appeared again, and the internal situation was upgraded. For Feeney at this time, there was not much change.

The only thing that Feeney cares about is the newly emerged talent system. The previous echo system did not have a separate channel for obtaining echoes, so what Feeney has always been interested in is Professor Jonathan's echo, which is equivalent to non-existence.

Now the emergence of the talent system has allowed Feeney to find a way to obtain special abilities. Magic vision and magic body are all talents with similar effects to Professor Jonathan's echo. However, now they have become permanent, even if they are awakened in the future. The new talents won't make them disappear, which is much better than the echo system.

The newly emerged talent of the third eye made the lies that Finny had told Dumbledore become a reality. Not only did the original work in his memory provide the basis for Vera's plan, but the existence of the third eye allowed Finny to possess Divination ability will also become a necessary basis.

More importantly, one of the ways to obtain new talents in the talent system is to purify one's own bloodline. So, it is very likely that Feeney can obtain the talent of Slytherin in his bloodline.

This shows that for the wand core material that Feeney has never completely decided on, he can choose the same basilisk horn as Slytherin. A wand that can be controlled with words is very helpful to Feeney at this time. big.

Not to mention, if he really has the talent of She Laoqiang, Feeney does not need to wait for the secret room incident to happen tomorrow before entering the secret room. He can enter in advance, so that many things can be carried out according to the progress he wants. Completely under his control.

Although the system upgrade did not bring too much emotional fluctuations to Feeney, it still made him think deeply and reconsider some of his arrangements and schedule.

Moreover, the emergence of new tasks also gave Finny a short-term goal for the future. Of course, in the long term, his goal is still to become the strongest wizard and then find a way back, especially after seeing the demon Eris. Behind the mirror, the desire to return to the world of the previous life became more clear.

While thinking about it, the night passed peacefully.

Early the next morning, George and Fred came to the Room of Requirement to find Finny. They made an appointment to go to Hogsmeade together that day.

Taking a carriage to the village of Hogsmeade, the three of them all had a little smile on their faces, looking at the snow-covered but still full of people and fireworks.

The festive atmosphere in the village is very strong.

Although Christmas in the Muggle world now has a heavy religious element due to religion, it is still the most original in the magical world.

Different religions in the Muggle world represent different meanings of Christmas, such as the day the Lord was born, the day the Sun God was born, etc. However, there is a coincidental overlap among them, that is, they are all of the same religion. The birth day of God.

In the magical world, this day is much more ordinary. Compared with Halloween, this day is much more ordinary.

Christmas may have really represented the birth day of certain people in the magical world. After all, Feeney has been able to confirm that God really exists, so it is very possible that Christmas is God's birthday.

However, Christmas nowadays is just a day to reunite with loved ones.

And because of the birth of the "International Statute of Secrecy", the magical world was completely hidden in the shadow of the Muggle world, and the Christmas holiday celebrations and atmosphere were also closer to the Muggle direction.

Today, there are many Christmas trees on both sides of the streets in Hogsmeade Village, with red bells hanging on them, forming a sharp contrast with the white snow covering the ground.

"It's much more convenient to come here by carriage than through the tunnel."

Fred said with emotion,

Feeney smiled and said nothing. He knew that Fred was telling the truth. Because of the Marauder's Map, they found several passages to Hogsmeade.

The one they took most often was not only as winding and winding as a rabbit hole, but also cold and wet. It took an hour to walk through the narrow and low passages to reach Hogsmeade.

Although Feeney knew about the passage, he had never walked through it. If he wanted to come to Hogsmeade, he could have Puff take him there, which he did in the past two years. On the contrary, George Fred and Jordan had walked through the tunnel several times. After all, if Feeney didn't come to Hogsmeade, they would be too embarrassed to go to Feeney and ask Puff to take them here.

Looking at the streets with people coming and going, George said,

"Shall we go to the Three Broomsticks first?"

Feeney thought for a moment and nodded and said,

“It’s also a good idea to warm up with a butterbeer,”

Then the three of them walked along the road skillfully and arrived at the door of the Three Broomsticks Bar.

As the name suggests, this bar has three broomsticks hanging on the door, arranged in a triangle, which is eye-catching and special.

The triangular roof on the door is crooked. Like many wizarding buildings, it is full of magic and completely ignores martial arts rules and general visual aesthetics.

Of course, in addition to these two obvious features, the bar also has a brand. The sign with the name Three Broomsticks is hanging on the door, although few people look at this to find a place.

Maybe it was because of Christmas, or maybe it was because the weather outside was relatively cold, but there were no other guests in the bar at this time, which surprised the three of them.

But they didn't care. They found a place near the fireplace, took off their coats and sat down.

The blazing fire in the fireplace slowly baked the white snow on the coats of the three people, as well as the water stains caused by the snow.

"I'm going to order something to drink."

Fred said with a smile, and then walked towards the counter. After a while, he returned here with three bottles of butterbeer and sat down.

Feeney drank butterbeer slowly, chatting with George and Fred, while scanning the environment of the bar.

It is completely different from the Leaky Cauldron Bar. The bright lobby, neatly arranged and very clean tables and chairs, and the very imaginative decoration style of the Middle World Bar in the previous game also make this bar more in line with Feeny's aesthetic.

"looking at what?"

George looked at Feeney doubtfully and asked,

Then he reacted,

"Oh, by the way, you have never been to this bar."

Feeney shrugged. This was indeed his first time in a bar in Hogsmeade. He originally thought it would be the same as the Leaky Cauldron, dirty and messy, but it turned out to be pretty good. He smiled and said,

"It's nothing, I just didn't expect that the environment here is not bad. I'm thinking about opening a bar for fun. After all, you all know that I can't live with Sirius all the time. I also need to have a house of my own. As for The old house of the Black family, I think Sirius doesn’t like living there as much as I do.”

Fred said,

"Okay, then we'll open a joke shop next to your bar."

Feeney didn't deny Fred's proposal. He really thought about it seriously.

Opening an ordinary bar alone is definitely not what Feeney wants. When he looked at the environment of this bar just now, he suddenly felt that the game he had thought of developing Warhammer chess pieces would be a good match for the bar.

If you really want to open a bar, then you will definitely sell this chess game in the bar. It can also provide a place for wizards to play.

Well, if it is really going to be opened, Feeney will definitely open it in a place like Fandao Alley. After all, the bar is not only used for drinking, but also for trading information, entrusting tasks, conducting illegal transactions, etc. These functions are only The gathering place for dark wizards in Fandao Alley is suitable.

Feeney thought like this and drank the butterbeer in front of him in one gulp.

Butterbeer is said to be beer. It is actually a completely non-alcoholic drink. It is a drink mixed with butter, hard candy, and cream. It is very suitable for the taste of young wizards in the magical world. Even many adult wizards like to drink it. ,

Although Feeney drinks it often, his favorite is juice.

After drinking butterbeer, the bodies of the three of them were all warmed up, and the coats they took off were dried by the flames in the fireplace.

"Okay, let's go to Zuko's Joke Shop, which you most want to visit."

Feeney said calmly that they came to Hogsmeade Village this time just for fun. They didn't have a clear purpose, so they decided where to go completely based on their heart.

Zuko's Joke Shop is right next to Honeydukes Candy Shop. There is only a private house in the middle. The shop here is naturally similar to the candy shop next to it. There are large glass windows with various prank props inside, all of which belong to twins. Favorite.

When you push the door open and enter, the bell on the door will jingle, alerting the store owner that someone is coming.

"welcome,"

Also because of Christmas, there were not many customers in the store. Zuko sat on the chair a little bored.

When he saw the arrival of the three people, he put down the newspaper in his hand and stood up from behind the counter.

Zuko is a wizard in his forties. Creating this joke shop and inventing many prank props may be his greatest achievement in his life. Although he has a friendly smile on his face now, Feeney sees it. There was a hint of bitterness,

If you think about it, you can understand that there haven't been any new products in Zuko's Joke Shop for a long time. After all, Zuko is now close to fifty years old, so naturally he doesn't have as active a mind as he did when he was young. The development of other magic props will not have any impact. , but prank props are themselves consumer goods for young wizards. It can be said that it is very difficult to develop new and popular products at his age.

There are many products in the joke shop. The first thing Feeney saw was a white quill placed in the window. He knew this thing.

"Auto-answering quill pen, it can help you cope with the subjects you hate and write most of the questions."

Zuko came to him and introduced,

Finny nodded, indicating that he understood. Zuko was indeed a qualified businessman. He introduced the function of the feather pen in a few simple sentences, and used a humorous tone to make Finny want to buy it.

However, although this feather pen is a good thing, it is not practical. Hogwarts' usual homework is mostly essays, and the occasion where this feather pen can really be used is actually the exam. However, Hogwarts' exams have special restrictions and prohibit the use of this kind of feather pen.

So, in fact, this thing is very useless.

Next to the feather pen is a broom. Finny noticed its name, the runaway broom.

When a wizard tries to ride this thing and fly in the air, it will automatically reverse, making the wizard head down, and it will also spin wildly, brake rapidly, etc.

Of course, this thing can only fly up to three meters, and can only be regarded as a toy, not a cursed item.

There are also frog egg soaps that get dirtier the more you wash them, nose-biting tea cups that bite the user's nose, burp candies that will make you burp for five minutes after eating them, squeaky candies that will make you scream like a mouse after biting them, and so on.

Finny didn't buy anything. On the one hand, he had no interest in joke props themselves, and on the other hand, if he needed these effects, he could use his own magic to achieve the corresponding situation without buying them.

George and Fred did lose a lot of things, including dung eggs, burp candies, squeaky candies and other snacks, as well as a very dangerous prop, the wolf tooth flying saucer.

This thing will make a roaring sound when thrown out, and it also has a very large lethality, which is very dangerous.

Finny also broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this thing. You call this a toy?

"I don't recommend you buy it."

After seeing the scene of the flying disc tearing a piece of paper into pieces in the blink of an eye, Finny suggested to the twins.

If the twins really bought this thing, Finny could only feel sorry for Ron, Percy and Jordan, hoping that they could escape.

In the end, the twins replaced the Spike Flying Saucer with an inflatable skeleton and a sticky telescopic hand.

These two things are still used to play tricks on people, but they are much safer than the Spike Flying Saucer.

"Okay, let's go."

Fred said to Finny with a smile while holding a bunch of things.
