Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry

Chapter 468 463. Professor Snape will defect from tomorrow?
"This is my replica of the Elder Wand, you can test it out."

Dudley placed a wand that was very similar to the Elder Wand in front of Dumbledore.

If it wasn't for the fact that the Elder Wand was in his hand, Dumbledore would have thought that what Dudley took out was the Elder Wand.

Even the sense of historical vicissitudes is exactly the same.

'it is as expected'

Everything made sense once you thought Dudley did it.

"Elderberry and thestral tail feathers are not very difficult things to get."

Dudley held the end of the Elder Wand (imitation), and the wand briefly emitted a faint fluorescent light.

"Would you like to try it?"

Dumbledore did not refuse. He really wanted to try the wand himself. There was no way an ordinary wand could deceive Tom, so he took the Elder Wand (imitation) and waved it forward.

The tip of the wand released countless flocculent threads, which soon formed a huge phoenix that exuded dazzling but not dazzling white light.

"A very beautiful patronus, a very perfect patronus charm."

Dudley praised.

"It's exactly the same, just a little bit inferior."

Dumbledore looked at Phoenix and also admired it, but the objects of their praise were different.

Then Dumbledore seemed to have thought of something, his face became a little serious and he even forgot to drink his drink. He looked at Dudley and said solemnly: "How many more wands can you make like this?"

Just listen to the names of his successors to understand how many killings the Elder Wand has caused over the millennia.

In addition to the first wand bearer Antioch Peverell, the second wand bearer was named Emeric the Demon, and the third wand was named Egbert the Evil. Then the Elder Wand Barnabas Deverell and the terrifying Loxias made themselves fearful.

Without exception, these wizards are cruel and murderous beings.

Countless wizards came one after another to compete for this wand.

If the Elder Wand can be imitated, it will definitely be worse than Voldemort in his heyday. At least Voldemort still has Dumbledore and Grindelwald to check and balance it, and if the dark wizards have one, it will definitely be the end of the world.

"Are you worried that the method of making the wand will be leaked?" Dudley understood what Dumbledore was worried about: "Don't worry about this, the materials here are not easy to obtain."

Not only was it not easy to get, but no one except Dudley knew how to make it. Even after seeing the methods and drawings, there was no way to copy it.

It was born by gathering the wisdom of several worlds.

In addition to the normal alchemy and transformation of magic equipment, there is a thumb-sized Philosopher's Stone inside, and a magic crystal is embedded in the core. Not to mention the Philosopher's Stone, even the magic crystal cannot be obtained by ordinary people. , at least one of Voldemort's Horcruxes must be sacrificed, and there are only seven Horcruxes in the entire world.

Otherwise, why would this wand be so powerful?

"Even I only made this one by chance."

Dudley was not lying.

There were so many elderberries that were discarded by him that they piled up in a mountain. Elderberries are a very precious material, and even someone as wealthy as Dudley would have spent several years collecting them.

But even if he made such an imitation of the Elder Wand, if it were publicized, it would be enough to make him an alchemist comparable to Nico Flamel.

Of all the wands Dudley had made, only his own could compare.

Hearing Dudley say this, Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief.

"So what are the limitations of this wand? Just like the Elder Wand, you can only completely control it by defeating the wielder?"

Dudley shook his head with disdain.

"How could I add such boring settings to something I made?"

"That is..." Dumbledore asked.

"As long as I agree, it will work."

In other words, if you don't agree, you can't use it.Isn't this setting more boring?

After repeated questioning, Dumbledore finally felt relieved.

"So when the time comes I need to teach you to be 'defeated' with this wand."

So the question arises, if the holder of the Elder Wand was not holding the Elder Wand, but was defeated holding another wand, would the Elder Wand still change hands?

This is a very interesting question, because the setting for the Elder Wand to change its owner is not only to be defeated, but to be precise, as long as it goes against the wishes of the holder, it will trigger the change of owner mechanism, so even if it is stolen, the Elder Wand will It is determined that it has changed ownership (this is how Grindelwald obtained the right to use it).

But Dumbledore was defeated voluntarily. I don’t know if the Elder Wand has such a buggy mechanism.

Dumbledore nodded and put away the Elder Wand (fake).

I unconsciously felt a little sad for Voldemort.

From opponents to teammates, from subordinates to weapons in hand, even the timing of 'sneak attack' is clearly arranged.

If a wizard as conceited as Voldemort knew the truth, he would go crazy with rage.

Dumbledore was looking forward to Voldemort's expression at that time, it would be wonderful.

From that day on, every time McLaggen came out of the Room of Requirement, Dudley would make a little progress in repairing the Vanishing Cabinet.

McLaggen didn't notice it at first, but after he found that the things he put in the disappearing cabinet began to disappear, a long-lost smile finally appeared on his face.

He succeeded, though he didn't know how, and repaired the Vanishing Cabinet.

The next step in the disappearance of living creatures is the most important thing.

Otherwise, the Death Eaters would not have traveled through time, but would have been suffocated to death in the closet.

So he started trying to catch birds and put them in a cupboard.

In the initial period of time, the birds placed in the cabinet basically ended up dead.

Slowly, slowly, when he opened the cabinet door, the bird began to flap its wings and fly out.

Live birds because the other end of the cabinet is connected.

About five or six times out of ten you will succeed.

Almost successful.

So he quickly wrote a letter and told Voldemort the news through his father.

Everyone is waiting for the day when the disappearing cabinet will be completely repaired.

On this day, Dudley approached Dumbledore.

"Professor Dumbledore, I think it's time we went to that place."

Dudley held up the opal necklace that Crabbe and Goyle had handed over.

"Looks like Tom can't wait any longer."

There was no trace of surprise on Dumbledore's face. He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

"Yeah, I guess it will be tomorrow night."

Dumbledore took out a replica of the Elder Wand: "I asked Professor McGonagall to take the junior students to Beauxbatons today."

"Thank you, Professor McGonagall."

"Professor Snape will defect from tomorrow?"

"I think so."
