Chapter 4108 4110 [Big Fortune Comes]

Xiang Nan then bought two second-grade textbooks at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, "Standard Spells: Level 2" and "Defense Against Dark Magic Creatures".

The textbooks purchased for the previous grade, such as "History of Magic", "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration", "Magic Potions and Spells", "Thousands of Magical Herbs and Grasses", etc., will continue to be studied in the second grade and there is no need to purchase new ones.

After buying the textbooks, Xiang Nan went to Madam Malkin's robe store and bought three sets of new school robes that fit him well, a new hat, a new pair of dragon leather gloves and a new winter cloak.

Last year, he had no money to buy new clothes, so he had to buy old clothes from a second-hand robe shop. Although wearing old clothes did not hinder his studies, why would he wear old clothes when he could wear good ones?

After buying clothes, Xiang Nan went to Ella Owl Shop and bought himself a large owl.

The Eagle Owl is the largest owl species in the world. It has a ferocious personality and can prey on mice, rabbits, snakes, foxes, porcupines, and even ungulates.

Xiang Nan often needs to deliver medicine to the pharmacy, so it is very necessary to have a large owl that can carry a lot of weight.

When Xiang Nan entered the Eela Owl Shop, he saw the eagle owl at first sight.

Because it is the largest among its kind, with a body length of about 70 centimeters and a wingspan of about one meter, and its pair of brown eyes are the brightest. At first glance, they look like two small light bulbs, and you can tell at a glance that they are very energetic.

However, because of this, the price of this owl is relatively high. A normal owl only costs ten Galleons, and a good one is only fifteen Galleons. But this Eagle Owl costs twenty-five Galleons.

But Xiang Nan still spent money to buy it because he believed that you get what you pay for.

After buying it, Xiang Nan carried the bird cage out of the store and then teased the eagle owl in the cage, "How about you call yourself 'Zhaocai' from now on?"

"Coo~Coo~Coo~" The Eagle Owl made a dissatisfied cooing sound.

"That's called 'Jinbao'?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"Cuckoo~Cuckoo~" Eagle Owl was still dissatisfied.

"That's called 'Naji'?" Xiang Nan asked again.

Congxiao was still dissatisfied and rolled his eyes, obviously very dissatisfied with Xiang Nan's naming.

Seeing this, Xiang Nan continued to give names, and when he finally named "Da Fulai", Cong Xiao finally cooed twice in satisfaction.

"Okay, from now on you will be called 'Da Fulai'." Xiang Nan also smiled happily, and then took Condor Hell and used Floo powder to return home.

……

For the next ten days or so, Xiang Nan spent his time boiling medicine, reading books, and practicing spells.

And after he absorbed the magic power of twenty-six people, his strength was further enhanced.

Now, he could use the Ten Thousand Arrows At Once skill to release nearly three thousand arrows; and he could use the Spark to Set the Prairie on Fire skill to set a house on fire in an instant...

Especially the underground escape technique, which can now enter the ground in almost seconds, without even a second. And the fastest speed has been increased to 30 meters per second, and it can stay underground for two and a half hours... Therefore, Xiang Nan is very satisfied with this.

……

At the beginning of August, Xiang Nan and Lily both received owls from the school, telling them to take the Hogwarts Express from King's Cross Station back to school on September 1st, and also listing the new books they would use that year.

Sure enough, they were the two books that Xiang Nan bought, "Standard Spells: Level 2" and "Defense against Dark Magic Creatures".

"I need to go to Diagon Alley to buy some books." Lily said to Xiang Nan, "But I don't want to trouble my parents to take me there. Sev, can you take me there using Floo powder? I want to give it a try."

"Of course." Xiang Nan nodded. "Come on, don't be nervous. Just sprinkle a little Floo powder and clearly say where you want to go - Diagon Alley. Don't say it wrong, otherwise it will be troublesome." "Yeah." Hearing him say that, Lily suddenly became a little nervous.

"Don't be nervous, just read it twice to yourself, Diagon Alley, Diagon Alley..." Xiang Nan said when he saw this.

Lily nodded and read it aloud twice.

"Okay, you go first." Xiang Nan grabbed a handful of Floo powder and handed it to Lily.

Lily threw Floo powder into Xiang Nan's fireplace, and the flames suddenly jumped high.

"Remember, read the location loudly and clearly, Diagon Alley." Xiang Nan said loudly.

Lily nodded and walked into the fire, hesitantly, "Towards Diagon Alley."

As expected, the accident still happened, Lily still read the wrong place. With a loud bang, Lily disappeared.

Seeing this, Xiang Nan quickly grabbed a handful of Floo powder and threw it into the fireplace, then walked into the fire and imitated Lily's pronunciation, "Diagon Alley."

He inherited Partridge Whistle's ability and is very good at imitating other people's speech.

There was a flash of fire, and Xiang Nan also disappeared.

……

A moment later, Xiang Nan appeared in a fireplace.

Lily was seen standing blankly in a store. The store was spacious and dim, with all kinds of strange goods on display.

For example, on a mat in a glass box, there is a withered human hand, a stack of bloodstained cards, and a motionless glass eyeball.

Ferocious masks stared down from the walls, various human bones were placed on the counters, and rusty, sharp-toothed instruments hung from the ceiling...

"Do you want to buy anything, kids?" A hunchbacked man looked at Xiang Nan and Lily and asked with a sinister smile.

"Sorry, we used the Floo powder and went to the wrong place. Sorry to bother you, we'll leave now." Xiang Nan explained, then pulled Lily's hand and was about to take her away.

"Don't leave in a hurry. You can take a look at the goods in my store. Maybe there is something you like." The owner smiled sinisterly.

"No need." Xiang Nan waved his hand, protecting Lily behind him, took out the magic wand with his right hand, and pointed it at the owner.

He knew the shopkeeper, Caractacus Burke, the owner of Borgin & Burke's, who specialized in dealing in dark magic items and also secretly dealt in contraband.

In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, he helped Lucius Malfoy hide some contraband items. In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, he sold Draco Malfoy the Hand of Glory and the cursed opal necklace, and also taught Draco to repair the Vanishing Cabinet, allowing the Death Eaters to enter Hogwarts...

If a bad guy like this dares to do anything wrong, Xiang Nan doesn't mind letting him taste his power.

Seeing this, Bock laughed instead. "Don't worry, there are new rules in Knockturn Alley now. You must not touch children. I won't hurt you."

"Why?" Xiang Nan asked curiously after hearing it.

"Because a few days ago, a damn dark wizard disguised himself as a child and entered Knockturn Alley. He sucked the magic power of more than 20 wizards, turning them all into Squibs." Burke gritted his teeth and said, "So no one dares to target children anymore."

Xiang Nan was stunned and a little surprised, "They became duds? Are you sure? They can't use any magic at all?"

"You guys should go away. I have no obligation to answer your questions." Bock said impatiently.
