Chapter 325
Chapter 325
Once the fight started, it is hard to stop. Lupin struggled to control the spell, Felix is competing with him for control of the transfigured entity, half of the debris on the field turned into cats, and the other half turned into chubby Nifflers, which strutted comically and pressed their buttocks against the cats, making them let out a shriek.
On the other hand, Snape’s spell is fast and rapid, when encountering a spell that flying towards him, he did not dodge, but he used his high reaction speed at the last minute to flick off the spell, his casting speed is at least twice as fast as the average person.
However, Felix is equally not slow, he seems to have no limits in general, while suppressing Lupin, he can still spare some effort to confront him, using hand gestures to cast spells from time to time, propping up a moving golden shield.
Snape felt sick, he could not think of a better word, the golden shield has excellent resistance to spells, pushing two or three spells towards him on top of it, as a last resort, he used a more powerful spell to freeze them in place, but the next second the shield turned into a small snake, dexterously wandering on the ground.
What surprised him, even more, was that for some simple spells, even though it hit Felix, the spell slid aside smoothly against his chest.
“Humanoid shield charm … Professor, I was actually a little careless, it’s not my most powerful defensive magic, in case you use the Diffindo just now, Professor, I might bleed a little.”
At the end of the battle, Snape and Lupin combined to release a small black hurricane, the building emitted a humming and shuddering sound, the ground debris was torn and swept in, making its sound look even more appalling.
It was 50 or 60 feet tall and occupying a third of the castle, emitting a “whining” whistling sound as they were forced to retreat.
“That’s something.” Felix curled the corners of his mouth, if he wanted to avoid it, it would be easy, but to defeat it head-on would take a little effort, and his goal was never to win.
At that moment, the light in the castle began to flicker constantly, Felix looked up, the topmost chandelier being pulled by a small hurricane and shaking violently, emitting a creaking and groaning noise that was unbearable.
A milky-white orb was sucked down and rolled into the hurricane, which began to twist and expand under the action of external forces … A bright column of light passed through the black hurricane, like countless lightsabers piercing a hole in a big empty garbage bag, and Its light shone in the dim space as well as on their obscure and uncertain faces.
Finally, the pillar of light and hurricane disappeared together.
Snape flinched for a moment, “No fun.” He put away his wand and prepared to leave.
“Don’t go, Professor,” Felix pulled him back and said with a smile, “After the welcome ceremony, we should discuss the future of the company.”
“That’s the future of your company.” Snape said coldly.
“It’s our ‘future’.” Felix looked at him.
Ten minutes later, Felix yawned toward and said with an apologetic look on his face, “Please, Dobby.”
“Leave it to me, Mr. Hap, Dobby will finally have something to do.” The house-elf patted his chest and said, the fingertips of his long, thin fingers lit up with light, returning the rubble all over the floor to its place.
Snape, Lupin, and Felix came to the second floor of the large room, each sat down in three separate directions.
Felix said sincerely: “Professor Lupin, Severus, and I will spend most of the time teaching at Hogwarts, I don’t have much energy to devote to this, I can only develop a strategy in terms of the general direction, the specific management still needs you.”
Perhaps tired from fighting, Snape did not raise objections.
Lupin thought seriously for a moment, “What do I need to do?”
“Study.”
“Study?” Lupin asked suspiciously.
Felix said, “As I said back when Dumbledore interviewed me, I hope to introduce the wisdom of the non-magical world, the magical world has been closed for too many years, and the outside world is taken for granted by us, If we can study them and create something even if it is slightly modified product of theirs, it will deeply change the whole magical world. Therefore, learning is a must.”
Snape gave Felix a meaningful look, he saw some information in the temporary office of the L.C.A building, even if only one-tenth of it can be realized, it will bring a radical change to the wizarding community.
It is truly … cunning, as always, to start with the lives of all the wizards.
Felix drew out a stack of parchments and let them float in front of Lupin, “I don’t want to make some amazing product, but – what’s the word? Like a spring rain, moistening the air and soil, making the company’s products unconsciously an essential part of every wizard’s life.”
“We can start with the basics of the wizard’s home, like the magic lamp, like the magic air conditioner. Can you imagine that such a small box can keep the temperature within a twenty-foot diameter at the optimum level?”
Lupin fiddled with the small box floating in front of him, he tried to inject a trace of magic, the surrounding temperature immediately dropped, just like the March wind blowing on his body, bringing a slight refreshing breeze for him.
“This is just an example, in fact, I also made some similar gadgets, you can understand it as a prototype, you can improve it and invent different types for different scenarios.”
“Then the profit …” Lupin had been convinced, in his opinion, it is a good thing, and he began to think about the development of the company.
“No need to think about profits for now,” Felix said with a nod: “In addition to what I just mentioned, I would prefer you to discover suitable enchantments methods, not bound by ancient runes, alchemy, or out-of-the-way magic spells, and preferably develop standards and procedures that will work. ”
“Remus, we’re making history.”
Lupin admitted he’s moved, his heart became more alive, like rediscovering the meaning of life.
“How many people are currently in the company?” Lupin inquired.
“You, me, Severus, Dobby, and Miss Clearwater who just left,” Felix counted with his fingers, “I’ve scheduled the rest of the interviews for the following week, and there are about … three hundred people or so. ”
Lupin’s black eyes went blank for a moment, “You mean, I am going to do all the work without …”
“Well, after all, the research and development team will be handed over to you, it is best to let you go through it personally, but I can provide a list of people I think will be useful to you a bit.” Felix said.
“I’ll help out too, over the summer.” He added.
Lupin found the word “help” a little harsh, it isn’t even his company, “So when the full moon …”
“Severus will be responsible for providing the Wolfsbane potion, as well as the channel for some rare alchemical materials of some recipes.” Felix said, he inherited a large amount of knowledge in alchemy from Nicolas Flamel, and if something represents the heritage of a great alchemist, it would be the recipe for various enchanting materials.
Some alchemical symbols can only work with special enchanting materials, which originally was a disadvantage, but with the continuous development, various recipes becoming more and more perfect, it has also become completely mainstream.
The mere fact that it solves the problem of talent for entry makes it the number one choice of wizards, and it is not without reason that ancient runes have fallen into decline.
“In addition to that, there is one more thing we need to do this summer.” Felix said, “Create a magic factory.”
“A magic … factory?” Lupin asked, he understood both words in context, but together, it’s a bit puzzling.
“Well,” Felix waved his wand and sprinkled a golden mist, an image of an automatic assembly line appeared, “You can assume it is from my imagination, this kind of unmanned production line does not exist in the real world yet, at least not yet.”
“This concept comes from the non-magical world, we don’t have to accept it all, but pick the ones that are suitable, preferably that can complement the magical world. For example, high-precision engraving … and then, for example, batch duplication work …”
“I contacted a manufacturer of the equipment, when you are done with the recruitment, we can go together to have a look.” Felix said with a smile.
