The years of welding at Hogwarts

Otherwise, where could he eat the delicious terrestrial king crab legs in the future?
It's impossible that in order to let Lord Shafulin have a good meal, SHIELD would send agents to Kalimantan to kill the eight-eyed giant spider and then airlift it to him, right?
Although considering how rich SHIELD is, this little transportation cost is just a drop in the bucket.
"You two, what are you still doing?"
Noah scratched the helmet under his feet with his sharp claws. He didn't use much force, but it still created a burst of sparks on the helmet and left several clearly visible scratches.
"Hurry up and clean up the battlefield. Charlie has returned to the camp after hearing the noise you made."
Noah crossed his arms, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes, "He wants to tear the two of you apart right now."
Chapter 302 Merlin's Scepter
"Now that you two have grown strong enough, you think you can fly solo, right?"
It was the first time that Noah saw Percy, who had always been a good student, get so angry.
Oh, no, to be precise, it should be the second time.
He still remembered the time when Ron and Draco, two immature guys whose mental age was no more than ten years old, were in love and hate with each other. After the wizard duel at the top of Hogwarts, Percy angrily scolded Ron.
"Do you think that just because you are a member of the noble Merlin Order, you can do whatever you want based on your personality? You can be lawless!?"
Percy Weasley roared so angrily that his glasses tilted to the side due to his extremely large movements. Combined with the action of throwing the spoon, his movements were similar to those of a deceased old artist.
Charlie, who was originally furious about his twin brothers' unauthorized actions, became as quiet as a chicken after being yelled at by his third brother, and did not dare to interrupt at all.
"You dare to cast a spell on me?! Do you know how worried this makes me about you two?"
Percy was so excited that he made exaggerated gestures. In the light of the bonfire in the distance, a few sparkling lights could be seen splashing out of his mouth from time to time.
"If you two keep doing this, I'll kill you both sooner or later!"
"I should have strangled you two to death when you were born and thrown you into the Forbidden Forest to feed the giant acromantula!"
The two twins, who lowered their heads and silently accepted the scolding, looked at each other quietly, and then George took out an inconspicuous cloth bag from his pocket.
Grabbing the edge of the bag and turning it upside down and shaking it, a large number of black arthropods with a layer of rough and hard bristles instantly poured out of the bag and piled up into a small hill on the ground in a blink of an eye.
Fred did the same thing.
The legs of the eight-eyed giant spider that were shaken out of the bag seemed endless. The thickest one was as thick as a human leg, and the thinnest was as thick as a baby's arm. They were still pouring out continuously.
When the hill of the eight-eyed giant spider's legs piled up on the ground exceeded one and a half meters high, George and Fred immediately moved to another place and continued to pour out their spoils.
For several minutes, the spider's legs did not slow down at all.
The expression on Percy's face changed from anger and rebuke at the beginning, to stunned shock, and finally to complete admiration for the abilities of his two younger brothers, as well as numbness to their unlimited love of self-destruction.
Until there were more than ten small hills of eight-eyed giant spider legs piled up on the ground, the twin brothers saw that the pockets in their hands could no longer be emptied, so they took out another pocket from the inside of their clothes.
This time,
What were poured out from the pockets were pieces of snow-white meat, but because they were handled hastily and there was no good processing environment, many pieces of meat were covered with dirt and fallen leaves.
Unlike the giant monster whose body is full of waste, almost all parts of the eight-eyed giant spider can be used.
The most valuable and rarest thing is the venom stored in the poison sacs in their bodies. These venoms will evaporate and deteriorate at a very fast speed after the death of the giant spider.
Therefore, it is not an easy task to collect the venom of the giant eight-eyed spider.
Because of this, the price of Acromanthus venom is as high as one hundred gold Galleons per pint.
Although, after a pint is converted into the common volume unit of milliliter, a little more than five milliliters of venom is worth one gold galleon, this price is not high, at least much lower than a certain brand of eyebrow pencil.
But this is no match for the huge number of the eight-eyed giant spiders, and the venom stored in their venom sacs is also sufficient.
Those who are able to obtain the venom of the giant eight-eyed spider usually ship out dozens or even hundreds of liters each time. With this calculation, the average market price of one hundred Galleons per pint is not low.
Slightly less valuable than the venom are the eight delicious king crab legs on the eight-eyed giant spider.
In addition to the eight crab legs, the huge body of the eight-eyed giant spider, also known as the Scottish terrestrial soft-shell crab, also contains a lot of edible meat.
The armor covering the chest and back, the coarse bristles on the limbs, the protein mucus stored in the silk glands in the body, which is the raw material for spider silk, and their fangs...
These are all magical materials that can be used, and the prices on the market are not low.
After emptying all the edible eight-eyed giant spider meat in the space bag, the twin brothers stood there with their hands on their hips, looking like ruffians, tilting their heads and giving Percy an inexplicable look, leaving him to understand.
Even Charlie was shocked speechless by the scene before him.
Could it be that his two younger brothers were going to destroy the tribe of the eight-eyed giant spider?
Where did these two brothers get this ability?
Percy's face turned red, and after a long time he managed to force out a sentence from his throat, "Well done."
His voice was so soft that Ginny and Ron, who were standing next to him, almost thought they were hallucinating. Fortunately, Fred and George both had pretty good hearing.
"Is he praising us?" Fred asked sarcastically.
George even winked at Charlie and said, "Charlie, listen, Percy is praising people, shouldn't you say something?"
Charlie, who didn't pamper his two younger brothers at all, raised his hand and slapped George on the back of the head, "Look at what you two can do, hand over all those weird things of yours!"
"Give me ten or eight more of the protective suit you just wore, and the Muggle wand you held in your hand. My request is not high. I just want to be able to arm a team of ten people."
When they heard Charlie's words, George and Fred's smiles instantly turned into sad faces.
Fred grabbed his second brother's clothes in frustration, "That set of equipment just now is all our savings! You still want ten or eight sets! Why don't you go rob Gringotts!"
"Bill happens to work at Gringotts. Once you've made contact with him, you can attack Gringotts from both inside and outside..."
Charlie hurriedly covered his mouth before George could finish his words. In just these few seconds, some students in the camp began to look at the Weasley family with strange eyes.
That suspicious look was as if questioning whether the horrific robbery that took place at Gringotts some time ago was caused by the two talented brothers from the Weasley family.
But if you think about it carefully, you will find that this is actually an impossible thing.
Although the twin brothers of the Weasley family are very tough, these two are the winners of the third-class Order of Merlin. Compared with Lord Shafrin, who has completed the magical Animagus transformation at a young age, what are the Weasleys?
If the mastermind behind the looting of Gringotts was actually a certain Shafrin who did not want to reveal his name, then that would be really...
Well, when I think about it carefully, it seems that this is really possible.
"How expensive is that thing?"
Charlie snatched George's tactical backpack in disbelief, and found the M249 Muggle lightweight wand that George was holding when he just returned to the camp.
Charlie carefully looked at the Muggle creation in front of him, with a hint of doubt on his face. "Isn't this thing just made of some metal and plastic..."
He muttered, "How expensive can this thing be? I can make one for you using Transfiguration..."
"It's not this thing that's expensive," Fred rolled his eyes at his second brother, "You haven't used this thing, so you don't know how expensive bullets are!"
These gadgets made by Muggles are indeed much better than the wizards' wands, but every bullet fired is made of real gold Galleons.
Even if they could use the cloning spell to replicate shells and bullets in large quantities,
The moment the primer of a bullet temporarily conjured up by magic is ignited, its original properties and structure will be destroyed, causing the magic to no longer be maintained and the copying spell to become ineffective.
Therefore, even if they could use the cloning spell to temporarily create a bullet, if they wanted the bullet to be fired, the two brothers would still have to spend money on the primer used to propel the bullet to fire.
Although the cost of each bullet is not high, the M134 composite heavy wand can fire six thousand bullets into the air in one minute.
Just now in the territory of the eight-eyed giant spider, although the twin brothers had a great time killing, after they calmed down and roughly calculated the cost of their trip, they almost cried out loud.
Because the body strength of the eight-eyed giant spider is just enough to maximize the destructive effect of the full-power bullet on body tissues, when the twins were cleaning up the battlefield, the most valuable poison sacs among the spoils they could collect were basically destroyed completely.
Moreover, since there were so many corpses of the eight-eyed giant spiders, even if there were some undestroyed venom sacs that still contained extremely precious venom, due to their evaporation and deterioration rates, they would not last long enough to be stored in crystal bottles.
There wasn't much venom to collect, and the spider silk couldn't be extracted either. The deck that could be used as an alchemical material was destroyed...
Even the remaining soft-shell crab legs were mostly broken limbs, with almost no intact ones to be seen.
The twin brothers enjoyed the killing enough, but if the body materials of such a large group of eight-eyed giant spiders could be collected completely, they could be sold for at least six or seven thousand gold galleons in Diagon Alley.
Even if they took into account that a large amount of raw materials flooded into the market at the same time, causing the original supply and demand relationship to change and resulting in a drop in the price of materials, they could still earn at least four thousand gold galleons.
But now that this has happened, let alone making money, they are afraid that they may not even be able to recoup the dozens of gold Galleons they invested in the early stage.
After being scolded by his younger brother, Charlie, who had no idea how expensive firewood and rice were, stuffed the Muggle wand in his hand back into George's hand with disgust.
"So this thing is just a waste of money..."
Charlie suddenly found the key point of the problem from a very unique perspective, "So from a certain perspective, all of your achievements can actually be regarded as bought with money?"
Although I am reluctant to admit it, it is true.
Fred nodded helplessly. "Yes, theoretically, as long as there are enough Galleons, it is not impossible to defeat the Acromantula, let alone the You-Know-Who, in addition to the Acromantula."
"You two," Charlie raised his leg as if to kick them, "go wash your faces and join the bonfire party! Stop bragging here!"
Looking at the receding backs of George and Fred, Charlie looked angry and amused at the same time. In the end, all his complaints turned into a helpless sigh.
In fact, what Fred said was not bragging.
During the time when the twins were researching these kinetic weapons made by Muggles, the extremely talented twin brothers discovered an eternal truth in the world with their intelligence:
Bigger is better, more is beautiful, caliber is justice, and range is truth!
The amount of powder in a bullet plays a crucial role in the initial velocity of the bullet when it leaves the barrel.
Speed is power; the faster a bullet flies, the greater its penetrating power.
In addition to speed, the caliber, or weight, of the bullet is also a crucial factor in determining the power of the bullet.
Muggles' small-caliber water guns, such as those using .22lr reduced-charge bullets, may not be able to break through the barrier formed by the armor charm when facing the armor protection cast by wizards at a distance of meters.
But if you replace it with a .50BMG bullet used for long-range anti-material purposes, can your super-strong armor withstand such a shot?
So, the twin brothers realized.
They simply summarized the life truth they had learned - the faster the bullet flies and the greater its mass, the greater the power it releases when it hits the target.
So can they use magic to send a super-heavy bullet that is thick and large enough, such as a metal rod with a diameter of 30 centimeters, a length of 6 meters, and a weight of several tons, to an altitude of tens of thousands of kilometers?
With the help of the magic patterns engraved on it, can this super-heavy bullet made of metal tungsten, titanium or uranium be accelerated to a speed far exceeding that of a falling meteor (39000km/h) during its flight path of tens of thousands of kilometers, and finally hit the target?
As soon as this genius idea came out, the twins immediately regarded it as their greatest dream in life. After some serious discussion, they decided to name it "Merlin's Scepter".
The attack of Merlin's Scepter was so powerful that even if the legendary four giants came, let alone Voldemort, the Weasley twins felt that they could not fail to fight them.
Of course, this premise is that their lengthy and complicated attack can accurately hit the opponent.
The road to developing Merlin's Scepter is long and arduous.
Chapter 303: Seventeen shots in two seconds
Looking at the students sitting around the campfire in groups of three or four in the camp, Bucky took out his wallet from his pocket with an expressionless face, found twenty-five pounds from a pile of bills and handed it to Noah.
Standing on Gwen's shoulder, Noah glanced at the banknotes handed over by Bucky, patted Gwen's face gently with his wings, and signaled Gwen, the chief of SHIELD, to help him collect the money.
The bad thing about being turned into a turkey is that you don’t even have a pocket to put things in.
After taking the twenty-five pounds of gambling money handed over by Bucky, Gwen turned her attention back to the pile of wreckage in front of her that had been blown to pieces.
"Just by seeing the Iron Man fighting, I created this thing with my limited knowledge."
The iron suit in front of him was still emitting wisps of hot steam after being roasted by the high temperature of gasoline. Although it had turned into a pile of pitch-black scrap copper and iron, Gwen could still roughly judge the technological content of the suit from the remaining wreckage.
This made Gwen even more curious. How could such a simple thruster support a battle suit weighing at least two or three tons to fly to a height of fifty or sixty meters?
Is it the power of magic?
However, judging from the faint magical fluctuations emanating from the wreckage, even if the twins used the power of magic to make the armor fly into the sky, the magic patterns they engraved were not very powerful.
Just by using some basic magic, they were able to push a two or three ton weight into the sky. It seemed that the design adopted by this alchemy genius was extremely clever.
It was just because of insufficient funds that they could only use some cheap magic materials and were ultimately held back.
"Two young people with great ideas. Would you consider recruiting them into S.H.I.E.L.D."
"Forget it. They can't adapt to the boring work of SHIELD, whether it's in the field or in the research institute."
Noah was not impressed by Gwen's suggestion.
Not to mention that what he is going to do in the wizarding world is likely to make him the public enemy of the entire wizarding world. Even the sense of justice that the Weasley family has will eventually lead to him and the Weasley family standing on the opposite side.
However, just for this reason, Noah would seem a bit too petty if he just sat back and watched two rare talents waste a lot of their time and energy on raising funds due to lack of funds.
"Put them in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s talent support program and allocate them funds at the highest level."
Noah looked at the Weasley twins who were enjoying dinner by the campfire in the distance. "Open an anonymous account for them in Gringotts so they can withdraw funds at any time."
“It’s just a matter of making sure that everything they invent, we know how to manufacture it.”
