From Hogwarts to Strixhaven.

Chapter 244 Beast Bite Sword (800010000)

“The total amount delivered may reach but not exceed one-fifteenth of the total revenue…”

"The team is not responsible for any damage caused, including but not limited to lacerations, visceral removal, cremation..."

"Wizards need to provide all magical assistance, including magical consultation..."

"The one who made the agreement: Thorin, son of Thorne..."

"Witness: Balin, son of Fang Ding..."

"Wizard: Ivy Doom."

Ivy rode on the golden horn of the unicorn and followed the dwarves on the journey, and took the opportunity to look at the contract that the white-bearded dwarf Balin had just handed to him.

His expression was a mixture of melancholy and joy, looking extremely complicated.

Because some things happened after Ivy agreed to join the Lonely Mountain Expedition and before he got the contract from Balin.

When Avy arrived in Middle-earth, it was already late at night. Shortly after the battle with the three ogres, the sun of Arda once again spread its light to Middle-earth.

Gandalf remembered that it was impossible for the ogres to live under the sun, so they must have found a cave to hide in near the place where they roasted the dwarves.

In fact, this is exactly the case. The expedition team determined to conquer Lonely Mountain did find a cave extending underground.

There were many bones scattered on the cave floor, and the air smelled of decay. The cave was full of discarded food and looted property, from cowherds' flat bells to boxes full of gold coins. There were also many clothes hanging on the walls, which the ogres obviously could not wear, so they could only belong to the victims who were used as rations by the ogres.

Apart from these mundane objects, the most eye-catching were two swords, both with very fine scabbards and hilts inlaid with gems.

"This sword cannot be made by an ogre." The gray-robed wizard carefully examined the sword in his hand. After it was unsheathed, the light shining from the blade was as cold as ice and snow. "And it is also not made by humans or dwarves."

"Do you recognize these swords, Gandalf?" Thorin pulled out the sword in his hand. Unlike the long sword in Gandalf's hand, this one was more like a scimitar, and the blade was as curved as the moon, breathtakingly beautiful.

"I am sure that they were forged in Gondolin and were created by the elves in the First Age." Gandalf wiped the dust off the hilt of the sword on his gray robe. Anyway, no one could tell what the gray robe originally looked like.

Thorin frowned when he heard the word "elf". He threw the elven curved sword in his hand to Ivy and said, "Here, wizard! You defeated the three ogres. This is your trophy."

"There are no better weapons in Middle-earth." Gandalf commented on Thorin's actions, then happily tied the sword in his hand to his waist.

As soon as he got the Elven curved sword, Ivy knew that it must be an ancient item. Although he didn't know when the First Age Gandalf mentioned was, it must be quite a long time ago. And if Ivy remembered correctly, both swords had a very good reputation among the orcs, which completely met the requirement of having a legendary story.

However, it was a melee weapon, and Ivy was a wizard. Apart from using it as a component to release the magic Thunder Sword and Emerald Flame Sword, Ivy really couldn't find any other use for it for the moment.

Bilbo, the thief in the team, also gained something. He found a small knife with a leather sheath. It might only be used to trim the pedicure of ogres, but for hobbits it could be used as a dagger.

In this way, the three people in the Lonely Mountain Expedition Team who did not have melee weapons also found suitable weapons, so everyone became a soldier.

In addition to the weapons collected by the ogres, the other treasures in the cave could not be left out. The dwarves carried the treasure chests filled with gold coins out of the cave, and tried their best to collect various supplies on the ground, and even found a barrel of well-preserved beer in the corner.

"We cannot take them all with us," said Fili, a young dwarf who was Thorin's nephew. He had a fashionable beard tied in two braids with a small silver locket at the end.

"Then bury all these treasures! If any of us pass by here in the future, we can dig them all out!" suggested Fili's brother Kili. He was also Thorin's nephew. Among the rough dwarf men, he was the most handsome one. If he increased his height by four feet and removed the messy hair all over his body, he might be able to pretend to be an elf. Of course, the prerequisite is that he must pretend to be a mute, otherwise people will know he is a dwarf as soon as he opens his mouth.

All the dwarves agreed with the suggestion of the Filikili brothers, and just as they were about to choose a site to dig the pit, Ivy stopped them.

Facing the dwarves' puzzled looks, Ivy took out the Grimoire of Destruction and said with a smile, "It's time for the wizard to take action."

As the pages of the book turned, the door of the Room of Requirement stood out of thin air in a wasteland. Ivy invited the dwarves to temporarily store the treasures they got from the ogre cave with her and take them out when they disbanded and divided the money.

This convenient magic has been well received by the Lonely Mountain expedition team, and even the grey-robed wizard Gandalf has been asking Ivy all kinds of questions.

In order to facilitate the journey, Ivy also brought the unicorn Goldenhorn out of the Room of Requirement, because the dwarves' ponies were obviously not suitable for Ivy to ride, and Gandalf did not anticipate the addition of another tall man.

As soon as the golden-covered Golden Horn appeared on the scene, he won a lot of cheers for Ivy. The dwarves could no longer imagine what the wizard before them could not do.

After several dwarves were hit by horseshoes for trying to approach Golden Horn, they realized that this unusual horse in front of them was a proud creature.

Once the excitement wore off, the dwarves, who had not slept all night, felt hungry. Fortunately, there was still a lot of food looted from the ogres, and there were also goats that had been slaughtered not long ago in the camp that they had originally used to roast the dwarves.

Everyone had a hearty meal with beer and roast lamb, and then had a comfortable sleep.

Ivy also took a long rest to restore the seventh-level, sixth-level, and third-level spell slots she had previously consumed.

What made Ivy feel depressed happened after the long rest.

The bad news is that his spell slots do not restore through a long rest.

The good news is that he gained a new attribute enhancement.

The name of this buff was identified as "Eden" by the Grimoire of Destruction, and the effect was a very simple and crude way of adding two points each to Strength, Agility, and Constitution.

Perhaps because the world was different, the spell slots that Ivy could freely restore in Hogwarts became a consumable resource here. Even his own wizard magic power was greatly suppressed. Those spells that could be used to facilitate life could still work normally, while spells that could cause damage, such as the Repulse Spell, the Fire Spell, and the Weather Spell, were very difficult to take effect.

Of course, Ivy didn't experiment with any black magic, because Alda's creator god obviously didn't like dark forces. Ivy was in the world he created and absolutely couldn't ask for trouble.

For the first time, Ivy took stock of all the resources he could still use, and began to consider using the Beast Bite Sword he had just obtained as a weapon.

Yes, Ivy has completed the knowledge test on the ancient weapon and successfully learned its origins.
