After Harry left Madam Malkin's Robe Shop, there were more things in his backpack. Mr. Ollivander was a generous man. This black dragonskin backpack was expanded using the Seamless Stretch Charm. The space inside was not counted. It is extremely large, probably more than ten times its original volume.
And it's very convenient to take things out, you can reach them with your hands, and there's magic inside to help you stack them, it's very magical.
Hagrid was already waiting at the door of the shop. He was holding a large tub of ice cream in one hand and a cage in the other. A beautiful snowy owl was looking at Harry with curious eyes.
"So beautiful, Hagrid."
Harry put his finger into the cage, and the beautiful owl pecked it gently with its beak, as if to express closeness.
"As long as you like it." Hagrid pushed the ice cream to Harry, "Your birthday is half a month away, but I probably won't be able to go there at that time. It's your birthday gift. I wish you a happy birthday in advance, ha. profit."
"Thank you, Hagrid!"
"You're welcome, let's go, we still have a lot of things to buy."
They went to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore to buy a complete set of textbooks, and then went to the grocery store to buy cauldrons and various utensils. There were all kinds of scattered things, and the richness of the magical world was also revealed to Harry at this moment.
But what concerned him the most was the Quidditch store. After buying all the props for school, Harry came to the door of the store. It was around two o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, and there were far fewer people looking around the window. The items displayed behind the windows can thus be seen.
"Boys love this and of course girls love it too."
Hagrid said cheerfully, "It's just that there's no one my size can ride. I have a motorcycle, and that's pretty good."
Although Harry was mentally prepared to accept this outrageous magical world, he still became uneasy after seeing what was displayed in the window.
The Nimbus represents the company that produced it, and the 2000 model represents its model. Everything is normal here, but the... Intercontinental represents that it can travel long distances and has enough endurance to cross continents. Fly represents that it is flying in the sky. Yes, the bullet represents it...
It means it is a missile!
Nimbus 2000 intercontinental missile!
Nimbus Company strives to create professional-grade competition missiles, ushering in a new era of Quidditch! With a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour and ultra-durable battery life, Nimbus 2000 will never stop whether the race lasts for a week or a month!
Harry swallowed his saliva as he was shocked by the slogan. The intercontinental missile, which was about 20 centimeters in diameter and 1.8 meters long, was small but powerful. The streamlined missile body shone with a metallic luster, but it was not dazzling. The white paint The design is simple and grand, with four flexible tail wings and eight steering nozzles distributed at the front and rear ends to ensure that the rider can turn quickly and sensitively in the sky.
Even if Harry looked at it with the most critical eyes, he couldn't find any fault at all.
This is not a tool at all, but a piece of art behind the window.
"Hagrid, wait, I feel like if I don't buy it back, I won't be able to sleep."
"But first-year students can't bring this with them. You have flying lessons, and you can only sign up for the Quidditch team in your second year, Harry."
"But there are always exceptions, right! I feel like I don't need to wait for sophomore year, I'm an all-athlete."
Harry patted his chest, "Gringotts' dump truck is so fast, but it doesn't affect me at all. I was born to do this, Hagrid!"
"If it really doesn't work, at worst I won't take it out and just put it in my bag, right?"
Seeing that Harry was so determined to acquire the Nimbus 2000, and that Harry indeed had a much greater talent for such fast things than he did, Hagrid nodded after a few hesitations.
"After you go to school, you'd better talk to your dean and see what the professor says."
"No problem, no problem!"
Harry pulled Hagrid and pushed open the store door, "I want it! Nimbus 2000 intercontinental missile."
He took out his money bag and spoke boldly.
"Welcome! My distinguished guest!"
As soon as he heard that business was coming to his door, the store manager came up to him with a smile on his face.
"Dear guest, I am Marco, the store manager here. You want a Nimbus 2000, right?"
"Yes." Harry nodded firmly.
"There are only two units left in stock. What a coincidence that you came here. The production volume of the just-launched Nimbus 2000 is not high, but each one is a high-quality product."
"Two hundred and thirty Galleons, if you want it, I will get it for you right away."
Harry poured a small pile of gold galleons out of his pocket. The store had special tools for counting coins. Pour the gold galleons in and shake it, and the gold bullets would line up in a row of ten. In less than fifteen seconds, Marco put away the Galleons with a smile.
"Please wait here, and if you are interested, you may want to check out other things, such as the best maintenance tools, upgradeable invisible seats, wind and rainproof barriers for long-distance travel, and even foldable Single beds, we have everything here.”
He bowed slightly and retreated, going to the warehouse at the rear.
Taking advantage of this time, Harry also looked at the other flying tools in the Quidditch boutique.
The advertising slogan of Nimbus 2000 is indeed true. It is indeed a missile that opens a new era, because the previous ones were not called missiles, but rockets.
For example, various types of rockets in the Sweep series and Comet series are much thinner than the Nimbus 2000, with a diameter of less than ten centimeters and a length of only about one and a half meters. They have tail fins, but no turning nozzles, and their top speed is also It was only about 180 to 220, which was greatly slumped by Nimbus 2000.
But apart from these brooms used for competitions, wizards use rockets for serious travel without bullets.
This kind of rocket, which can accommodate one to three people sitting on it, is 1.8 meters short and three or four meters long. Although the flexibility cannot be compared with the ones used in competitions, the comfort and stability are much higher, and the acceleration is smooth. , it can accelerate to 150 kilometers per hour in about 30 seconds. If it is fully loaded with three people, it will slow down a bit, and the speed will be about 120 kilometers per hour. It is almost a must-have companion for wizards when traveling at home, and it can also be folded. When not needed, it can be folded into a cylinder that takes up no space and can be used as a stool.
Harry, who was not short of money, upgraded the invisible cushion. He tried the original one, which was a little hard and not that comfortable. With a set of maintenance tools, Harry didn't need other things. He planned to participate in the Quiz Digi games, and those weatherproof components are not allowed.
Satisfied! Nothing could satisfy Harry more than today!
Carrying Nimbus 2000 around the market was not a good choice. Harry stuffed it into his backpack and finally went to a store selling wizarding snacks. He packed a few portions of every food he had never tried before. It’s something to take home and share.
Soon it was time to separate from Hagrid. Hagrid handed over an envelope, "This is your ticket to Hogwarts. September 1st, King's Cross Station. It's written on the ticket."
Hagrid patted Harry on the shoulder one last time, "See you at school, Harry!"
"See you at school, Hagrid!"
Harry set out on his way home and waved goodbye to Hagrid.
