Chapter 4058 4060 [Traceless Extension Spell]

"Of course, this is the income certificate issued for me by Shuangma Entertainment City." Xiang Nan took out an income certificate and said.

For any customer who wins a large sum of money in the casino, the casino will issue a certificate of income to ensure that the customer will not be investigated by the relevant authorities. After all, many countries have the crime of "huge amounts of property of unknown origin."

The fairy took the income certificate, checked it carefully, and nodded after confirming it was valid.

"Since you exchanged too much Muggle currency, the exchange rate has fluctuated temporarily." The goblin then calculated, "Your 100,000 pounds can only be exchanged for 19,000 Galleons."

"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded.

He had expected that large-scale currency exchange would lead to exchange rate fluctuations, and he did not find it strange.

Those who want to rely on arbitrage to bring down Gringotts and cause an economic crisis in the wizarding world really underestimate the wisdom of the goblins. They have been running the bank for more than 400 years, and it is not for nothing.

The fairy then helped Xiang Nan exchange 19,000 gold Galleons, and also considerately gave him a purse with a "traceless stretching spell" so that Xiang Nan could take the money away directly.

Otherwise, 19,000 Galleons piled together would be like a small mountain and would be inconvenient to carry.

The Traceless Extension Charm is an advanced spell that can expand the usable space inside an object without changing the external size of the object so that it can store more things.

For example, Arthur Weasley cast an invisible extension spell in his flying car, allowing a small Ford car to carry eight people, six large boxes and two bird cages.

When Hermione Granger was searching for Horcruxes, she also cast an Invisible Extension Charm on her beaded bag, making it so that the small bag could hold enough space for an entire warehouse.

In "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", there is a huge zoo hidden in Newt Scamander's suitcase, which is probably larger than Disneyland.

Moreover, the space opened up by the Traceless Extension Spell is like Doraemon's four-dimensional space bag. Hiding items in it does not increase the weight of the carry-on. That's why Hermione can easily carry a beaded bag, and Newt Scamander can also lift a suitcase.

The Traceless Extension Spell is equivalent to the storage ring in fantasy novels. However, storage rings can usually only store dead objects, not living objects.

The Traceless Stretching Spell does not have this limitation. Dead objects, living objects, animals, and plants can all be loaded into it. It is very convenient and can be said to be a must-have item for home and travel.

However, due to its abuse potential, the Traceless Extension Charm is strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic and cannot be used for private purposes. It can only be used in the production of individual items (such as suitcases and family tents) approved by the relevant Ministry of Magic departments.

Therefore, if wizards want to use the Traceless Extension Charm to transport and smuggle bulk commodities, they will definitely be punished by the Ministry of Magic. Arthur Weasley, Hermione Granger, and Newt Scamander all used it illegally.

Xiang Nan had originally planned to use the traceless spell to make himself a portable storage bag to carry money, clothes, books, wands, sundries, etc.

Anyway, he hasn't officially entered the school yet, and is not considered a student of Hogwarts, so there are certain loopholes that can be exploited. But now it is saved.

The purse the goblin gave him was quite large, almost as big as half a room. It was more than enough to hold more than 10,000 gold galleons, and could at least hold a few hundred books, dozens of clothes, and a bunch of sundries.

……

After leaving Gringotts, Xiang Nan went to Slug & Giggs's alchemy shop to buy the raw materials needed to refine the flying sword, such as mercury, refined gold, feldspar, wind-milled copper, ice spring water, etc. These are all necessary materials for refining flying swords, drawing talismans, and carving formations.

"Hello, what would you like to order?" the owner Adam Giggs asked Xiang Nandao.

"One pound of mercury, three pounds of fine gold, five ounces of feldspar, one pound of wind-milled copper, six pints of ice spring water, one pint of Chinese fire dragon blood..." Xiang Nan said immediately.

After hearing this, Giggs looked at him in surprise and said, "Sir, the items you want are not cheap. Are you sure you have enough money?"

A pound of mercury costs ten Galleons, an ounce of feldspar costs five Galleons, a pint of ice spring water costs three Galleons, a pound of wind-milled copper costs twenty Galleons, and a pound of fine gold, an even more precious magical metal, costs seventy Galleons.

The materials Xiang Nan mentioned, added together, cost more than 300 Galleons. For many middle-class wizard families, these materials were considered expensive.

For example, Horace Slughorn, the Potions Professor at Hogwarts, had an income that was considered middle class or above. But when he learned that a pint of eight-eyed spider venom cost a hundred Galleons, he still couldn't wait to take out the small bottle...

So Ziggs saw that Xiang Nan looked unfamiliar, was not a regular customer, and was not dressed very decently, so he did not believe that Xiang Nan could come up with 300 gold galleons, and naturally he was unwilling to make a wasted trip.

"Confirmed." Xiang Nan nodded and took out three stacks of gold Galleons from his purse. Each stack contained more than a hundred Galleons, shining brightly and dazzling the eyes. "I just took them out from Gringotts. If you don't believe me, you can check them at will."

When Giggs heard him say that, he took the gold galleons in his hand in surprise and carefully examined them one by one. They were indeed real without a doubt. "Okay, wait a moment, I'll get you the materials."

Then, Ziggs took out precious alchemical materials from the deepest box in the store, including mercury, refined gold, wind-milled copper, feldspar, ice spring water, etc.

"Chinese dragon blood is a commodity prohibited from sale by the Ministry of Magic. Sorry, I don't sell it here." After Xiang Nan paid the bill, Giggs said again.

"Then boss, can you tell me where I can buy it?" Xiang Nan asked regretfully after hearing it.

"Uh-huh, I don't know." Giggs waved his hand. "Excuse me, that's not where you should go."

"I understand. I'm just curious." Xiang Nan smiled and took out ten Galleons and handed them to the boss. "I will definitely not take any risks."

"Okay." Ziggs secretly accepted the ten Galleons, and then whispered to Xiang Nan, "Number 12 Knockturn Alley might have what you want. But if I were you, I wouldn't go to that kind of ghost place."

Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance. Don't worry, I won't do anything rash."

……

After putting mercury, refined gold, wind-milled copper and other alchemical materials into his purse, Xiang Nan immediately went to Knockturn Alley.

The blood of the Chinese fire dragon contains powerful magical power and is the main raw material for drawing talismans and formations.

If he couldn't find it, he wouldn't be able to practice his flying sword, so even though he knew Knockturn Alley was dangerous and hidden many evils, he still had to give it a try.
