The closer it gets to night, the colder it gets in the village of Ottery St. Catchpole.
The flying fine snow and the blowing wind gradually become denser and more frequent as the evening falls.
The four of Rossi chased the magic stone, passed rows of tombstones, bypassed the church in the center of the cemetery, and finally walked into a particularly gloomy-looking courtyard deep in the cemetery.
The strange thing is that before Rosie stepped into this courtyard, even though she was standing at the door of the courtyard, she was not aware of the existence of this courtyard at all.
In her eyes, the front was originally just rows of tombstones and occasionally planted pine trees.
But just taking a step forward, the hazy gray fog instantly filled and dispersed in front of her eyes.
"What is this place?"
Just as Rosie was about to ask a question, she saw the door of the only small house in the yard creak open.
Then, Mr. Weasley, wearing a purple velvet suit, walked out of the door.
Even when facing him head-on, his long straight hair still obscured most of his appearance.
He just raised his hand slightly, and the two magic stones naturally fell into his palm.
"Hey, it's actually two pieces?"
Looking at the two rubies that fell into the palm of his hand and looked almost identical in appearance, Mr. Weasley finally showed some surprise.
"Mr. Weasley!"
Seeing that it was him, Abo immediately put away his guard and saluted him respectfully.
Seeing Abai like this, Rossi and others also saluted each other.
Mr. Weasley's eyes moved around several people, and finally fell back on Arbor:
"Well done, my training for you was not in vain."
"nourish?"
Hearing this, Rosie immediately turned his attention to Arbor and murmured in his heart: "It turns out that his current achievements are inseparable from Mr. Weasley. No wonder he is so respectful to this NPC."
As if aware of the way Rossi and the others looked at him, Arbor laughed awkwardly, then looked at Mr. Weasley and said humbly:
"Sir, you have given me too much praise. This is what I should do. And without the equipment that you gave me, we would not be able to complete the mission that you gave me."
When talking about "equipment" and "us", Abo deliberately emphasized his tone.
Hearing the meaning in Arbor's tone, Mr. Weasley couldn't help but laugh, and patted him hard on the shoulder with his free left hand.
"You, you, my family's fortune has almost been wiped out by you."
He spoke with a smile on his face, clearly not angry about it.
After a moment of pause, he said seriously: "These two magic stones are of no use to you. If you keep them, it will be a trouble. I will keep them."
As he said that, he looked at the gem in his palm again and muttered in a low voice, "That's good. I don't have to trouble Old Nick anymore."
He seemed to be feeling something, so much so that Abo's nod of agreement was ignored by him.
After a while, he came back to his senses and said again: "I will leave Autry in the future. There are several boxes in that house with some small gadgets. You can go get them yourself and treat them as gifts for you and me." Thank you from your friends."
"You want to leave?"
Arbor was not excited about the treasure chest that was obviously a mission reward. Instead, he looked at Mr. Weasley blankly and said, "Where are you going? Where should I find you in the future?"
"Don't worry, we will meet again in destiny."
Mr. Weasley smiled and said something profound, and then looked at the four of them with deep eyes.
Before Abo could speak, he took a step back. No movement was seen from him, and the whole person disappeared silently into the fine snow.
Seeing him leaving, Rossi and the others could no longer contain their anticipation for the treasure box. After looking at each other, they ran impatiently towards the small house.
The interior of this house is very ordinary. It seems that Mr. Weasley is not obsessed with material enjoyment, so the room has not been made wider by the traceless extension spell, nor has it been exquisitely decorated by artificial means.
A fireplace, bed, a table and chair set, and three prominent treasure chests lined up on the floor.
Out of respect and fear for Mr. Weasley, the four of them did not conduct a normal search, but quickly walked to the treasure chest.
"How to divide it?"
There were only three treasure chests, but there were four of them.
"The equipment that is released is suitable for whoever can get it. Galleons will be divided equally. The skill book will be decided based on the situation."
Abo spoke first.
“If you don’t get the right thing, then someone else has to make up the money and give it to the person who didn’t get anything.”
As she spoke, Erin looked at the other three with a firm expression. Since the treasure chest only opened the equipment suitable for her last time and Rossi and the two did not accept compensation, this time she simply made such a proposal before opening the treasure chest.
Hearing what she said, Rosie couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, and she completely recognized this friend in her heart.
He raised his hand and hugged Irene's soft arm, and said with a smile: "You are really a treasure girl!"
While laughing, she briefly explained to Jiang Jing the reason why Irene proposed this opinion.
After listening to Rossi's explanation, Jiang Jing's eyes softened a bit when he looked at Irene.
But in a blink of an eye, his eyes were attracted by the treasure box on the ground.
"Then who will open the treasure chest?"
"There are exactly three treasure chests. Each of you can open one."
Abo still looked indifferent to thanking him for opening the treasure box.
"Huh? Don't you want to open it? You three can open it too." Jiang Jing looked at Abai in surprise and said humbly.
"No, no, no, come on!" Seeing Abo waving his hands repeatedly, Rossi and the other two were no longer modest, each picked a box and opened it.
Inside the treasure chest that Jiang Jing opened: there was a layer of Galleons on the bottom, about a hundred Galleons. On top of the Galleons were a skill book glowing with white light and six staff core crystals.
There was only a set of wizard equipment in the treasure chest that Irene opened. Its properties were only slightly stronger than those available on the market, but they were not much higher.
Seeing their disappointment, Abo on the side smiled and comforted: "Don't be sad, it's a blind box, it's normal that you can't get good things out of it! And you guys are already very good, at least they are not ice rats or earwax-smelling Bibi." Weird candies like flavored beans.”
"Ah this..."
"How pitiful. Do you often prescribe that kind of thing?"
After hearing their conversation, Rossi shook his head in amusement, rubbed his palms together, breathed, and then slowly opened the treasure chest in front of him.
The first thing that caught his eye were three glowing skill books. After picking them up and handing them to Irene, he reached into the treasure chest and took out three cans of high-grade Floo powder.
Next, there was a box of wizard chess and a piece of parchment at the bottom of the box.
"Tracking Map: A magical map inspired by the Marauder's Map. When using it, call it the name of the person you want to track, and the map will show the location of that person.
However, it cannot show places you have not been to, and it cannot show multiple people at the same time. If you only know the other person's name but not their appearance, it will also not be displayed.
——For accurate tracking, explore the world! "
After reading the instructions on the tracking map, Rossi couldn't help but want to complain.
"The inspiration comes from the Marauder's Map? The Marauder's Map was obviously made by Harry's father and his father's friends. In this era, they may not have been born yet! Where is the game planning? There is a bug in the text!"
Not to mention Rossi's inner criticism, after she finished reading the instructions for tracking the map, Irene also introduced the skill book handed over by Rossi:
"A levitation spell, a disarming spell, and this uh... full body binding spell."
"The spell of the whole body binding spell will turn everything to stone. The body of the person who is cursed will become stiff, and the legs and arms will be stuck together and unable to move. It will last for 60 seconds."
After saying that, Irene raised her eyes and looked at Rossi and the others, "This is also a control skill."
"The book I wrote is Curse Stop." Jiang Jing then showed the skill book he wrote to the three of them.
"You want that set of equipment?"
Abo looked at Jiang Jing with questioning eyes, "It just so happens that you don't have the current level of equipment."
Jiang Jing glanced at Irene and Rosie and saw that they had no intention of wanting it, so he nodded and smiled: "Since you are so polite, I will get the jackpot first."
"As for these four skill books..."
Abo couldn't help but ponder as he looked at the skill books. Although they were both skill books, their values were obviously different.
There is no doubt that the Whole Body Binding Curse is more valuable than the Levitation Curse, which is also a control skill. However, the three spells of Stop Curse, Disarming Curse, and Levitation Curse are about the same value.
Seeing his hesitation, Rossi smiled and asked, "What's wrong? What do you think?"
"Actually I want to trace the map."
Abo said with some embarrassment, "I can give up other things. If you agree, I will give you something else as compensation."
"Pfft!"
After hearing what he said and looking at his squirming look, Rossi couldn't help laughing, "What are you so embarrassed about? This is not like you, Abo."
She handed the tracking map to Abo and continued: "Do you think you made a profit? But it's not like that."
While speaking, Rossi glanced at Jiang Jing and Irene with clear black and white eyes, "Although this map has been given to you, if we need to use it, we can borrow it from you!"
"Of course, as long as you want to use it, I will definitely borrow it for free." Abo immediately expressed his position.
After confirming the ownership of the tracking map, Abo gave up the distribution of other items.
That way, the rest is easily divided.
Irene took the Stop Curse and the Wand Core Crystal, Jiang Jing took the Whole Body Binding Curse, and the Levitation Curse and the Disarming Curse were given to Rosie.
"Gallons and floo fans, excluding Arbor, we have just one share each."
After Rossi finished speaking, he divided them into three parts, then pushed two of them to Irene and Jiang Jing respectively, and then asked, "Where's the wizard chess? Don't you want it?"
"This thing is sold in Diagon Alley, it's not worth much."
"That's it, then if you don't want it, I can take it away!"
Rosie smiled and said, "It's just right. When you have nothing to do, you can play chess with Sammy."
"What are your plans next?"
Seeing that they had finished dividing the things, Abo, who was lying idle on the wooden bed, sat up and asked, "I received a solo mission before, but I never did it because I didn't reach the level. Now I plan to complete it."
"I plan to upgrade my career and then do some regularization tasks."
As soon as Irene finished speaking, Jiang Jing on the side smiled and said:
"I jumped 20 levels this time. I need to learn the skills first and get used to it, and then sort out the tasks I need to do."
Don’t these guys need a break? You have just come out of such a difficult dungeon, yet you are still so anxious to complete the mission?
Rosie murmured to herself, while stretching greatly, her white and soft waistline suddenly revealed:
"You guys are really energetic. I'm a little tired. I just want to go home and rest now."
