Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 188: Lucky Potion
In the hall of the auditorium, the twins who were wrestling and frolicking together drew laughter from many people.
Albert just raised his head and glanced at them, then quietly moved to the vacant seat next to him, pretending that he didn't know the two trolls in front of him, turned over the notebook in his hand, and felt the potion proficiency plus some points for himself. benefits to come.
Lee Jordan glanced at the playful twins, sat next to Albert, and asked, "What were you thinking about?"
"I returned that gold card, I don't know what kind of thank you Hetok will give me." Albert flipped through the notebook and said casually, "I have a little expectation."
"I thought you didn't care about the other person's thank you." Lee Jordan was very surprised when he heard Albert mention this. In his impression, would Albert be someone else's thank you?
Obviously not!
Then...
Lee Jordan suddenly came to his senses, this guy is changing the subject!
At this moment, a long-eared owl flew in this direction and threw a small package in Albert's arms.
Albert smiled and said, "Look, here it is."
Lee Jordan: "..."
Albert was talking about the thank-you gift just now, but unexpectedly, an owl brought the thank-you gift in the blink of an eye.
"What's coming?" Angelina also sat over, just when she heard Albert say something was coming, she asked casually.
"Thank you." Albert shook the package in his hand. He naturally knew what was in it, but he opened the package on the spot. There was a piece of folded parchment inside. There is a glass medicine bottle with a golden liquid inside.
"What is this?"
Seeing the golden liquid in the glass medicine bottle, Li Jordan couldn't help widening his eyes. He had never seen a potion of this color before.
"It should be the Fuling Potion." Albert said without hesitation: "It's the so-called lucky potion. There are about two spoonfuls in it, and the effect of the medicine should last all day."
"Fortune?"
The twins who had been scrambling together also stopped frolic, and came over to see the legendary potion of luck with their own eyes.
“What is the Fuling Elixir?” Angelina asked suspiciously, looking at the glass medicine bottle containing the golden liquid.
"Is this the legendary lucky potion?" Fred took the Flux from Lee Jordan's hand, looked at it carefully, and made a drinking gesture, "I really want to take a sip and give it a try. "
"Who gave it to you?" George couldn't help asking.
"Hertok. I sent him the things back as a thank you gift," Albert explained briefly.
"It's so enviable, you guy's luck is good enough, drinking this bottle of Flux, your luck is about to explode!" George took the bottle from Fred, looked at it, and said It was returned to Albert, who took the vial of Flux and stuffed it directly into his pocket.
"Fuling agent does not bring true luck. It can greatly improve the various abilities of the drinker, make their thinking active, and do things smoothly." Albert explained while reading the letter, "To a certain extent, its effect is also considered lucky. Unfortunately, drinking too much of this stuff is poisonous."
"Drink too much? You want to drink more!"
Several people couldn't help staring at Albert, feeling that this guy's heart is too big, and he still wants to drink too much?
Your luck is already good enough, and it is a very lucky thing in itself to receive this bottle of Fuling Elixir as a thank you gift.
As a result, this guy actually wants to drink Flux regularly?
"This is only a small bottle!" Angelina reminded.
"There is no need to drink it all at once, a small sip can last about two or three hours. Besides, I will cook it myself in the future." Albert said, "When I cook it, you will have the opportunity to try it. ."
"I won't be poisoned directly." Lee Jordan strangled his neck, pretending to be poisoned to death, "Didn't you say that Fuling is difficult to prepare, or it will become highly poisonous. "
"You have to believe me." Albert said with a smile, "If you can drink a little every six months, life will be better."
"That's not bad," George muttered. "But I thought you'd say sell it for money."
"Come on, don't keep thinking about Galleon." Albert stood up and was about to put the Flux back in the dormitory and carry it with him. Weeping in the toilet.
"By the way, you said, can you find... the secret treasure hidden in the Forbidden Forest with the help of Flux?" Fred whispered about the one from a few months ago in the empty corridor. thing.
"Why haven't you given up on this?" Albert frowned when he heard this, glared sideways at Fred, and warned, "Did you forget that you almost fell into the belly of a giant eight-eyed spider? "
"Last time, our luck was not very good. However, this time, you have the elixirs, if you are fully prepared." George also had some thoughts, "Also, as long as we can learn the spell to deal with spiders, we will Three..."
"You three? You bastards, you're actually going to exclude me." Lee Jordan waved his fist in dissatisfaction, and wanted to punch someone, "And, you didn't mean that the treasure map was thrown by Albert Are you in the Forbidden Forest? Without a treasure map to guide you, what will you use to find the secret treasure?"
"You can believe what Albert said. Even if he really had to throw the treasure map in the Forbidden Forest, there must be a way to find it again." Fred looked at Lee Jordan with the eyes of a fool.
"What kind of eyes do you have?" Lee Jordan said dissatisfied.
"Look at a fool," Fred said honestly.
"Hey, you've been in the same dormitory with Albert for a semester, yet you still don't understand his character?" George made up the knife beside him.
What Albert said may be true, but the truth in it is unknown.
Because he's the best at making so-called facts.
"No, I still want to live a few more years, but I don't want to venture into the woods anymore. What if I'm dragged away by the eight-eyed giant spider and eaten?" Albert shook his head and refused.
"It would be nice if you didn't catch them and sell them for money." Fred gave me the look you're teasing me with right now.
"Is the treasure map really still in your hands?" Lee Jordan asked suddenly.
"I said it was thrown in the forest." Albert said.
"You must have found it." Fred pouted, "Just use the Flying Charm."
"I won't." Albert spread his hands and said he wouldn't. In fact, he really can't fly curse.
"You don't?" The three looked at each other, but no one believed his nonsense.
When a few people passed the corner, they stopped talking about this topic. There was someone walking towards the corner. It was Professor Smith.
Smith saw Albert and said, "Anderson, I just happened to be looking for you."
"Is something wrong, Professor Smith?" Albert asked.
"The research on Boggart has already yielded results." Smith's tone was a little excited, "Come with me, I'll show you the photo, this is a major discovery, how could it be done before? Has anyone thought of using this method to explore Boggart's form?"
"See you later," Albert said to his roommate.
The three looked at each other, watching the backs of Albert and Professor Smith leaving, and the topic became the Boggart study that Professor Smith just talked about, guessing what the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor had discovered.
Albert followed behind Professor Smith and asked curiously, "Have you photographed Boggart's entity?"
"Yes, I got it." Smith reached out to open the wooden door and invited Albert into his office.
"I photographed Bogut's body through the camera. It is a cloud of constantly rotating fog. Bogut itself has no real entity."
Professor Smith pulls out a few pictures from a drawer. The objects in the pictures are a swirling mass, kind of like fog. "I'm going to publish this great discovery in the journal Unbelievable," he announced.
"Congratulations, Professor Smith." Albert said with a smile.
"No no, congratulations, Anderson, you have a credit for this too." Professor Smith said with a smile, "This is the way you came up with it, without you, I would not have discovered this secret. So , I'm going to put your name on it as well."
"No need for a professor, this is your achievement." Albert shook his head and refused: "If you feel that you have taken advantage of me, you can teach me some useful spells or alchemy."
"This..." Smith had a strange look on his face, nodded and said, "Your alchemy level is only average, but I can help you in this regard."
"That's great," said Albert. "It's a shame that alchemy isn't taught at Hogwarts."
"This subject needs a relatively high starting point." Smith explained: "In the UK, there are not many people who value alchemy, and the books on alchemy in the Hogwarts library are not useful, generally need to wait. After you graduate, study slowly by yourself."
He suddenly said: "I'm still going to put your name on it. It's not a good idea to take someone else's work for yourself."
Albert was surprised, but no longer rejected Professor Smith's decision.
"By the way, I heard you want to enter the Forbidden City just now? What secret treasures are you talking about?" Professor Smith suddenly frowned and warned, "This is not a good idea, the Forbidden Forest is very dangerous, Don't be fooled by some treasure map."
"Uh, I know." Albert nodded.
"So what did the Weasleys say?" Professor Smith asked suspiciously.
"Last semester, Fred and George were tricked into the woods with a treasure map. I'll let them get rid of this idea and won't be fooled again." Albert said briefly.
"That's good." Smith nodded. "Although the periphery of the Forbidden Forest is not dangerous, it is very dangerous in the depths. Don't be foolish to take risks. No matter how many lives you have, it is not enough to lose."
"I know, then I'll go first." Albert greeted Professor Smith, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Can you give me this photo?"
"Of course." Professor Smith did not refuse, there are still several such photos on the table.
Albert slipped the photo into the pocket of his robe and turned to leave the office.
"A secret treasure?" Smith looked at the back of Albert's departure, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
……
Albert left the office and took a few steps when he saw a boy walking towards him, who also glanced at him.
Then, walk to the Defence Against the Dark Arts office and raise your hand to knock on the wooden door.
"That person seems to be...Smith?" Albert retracted his gaze and muttered, "Do you know him?"
However, it is not surprising to know each other. The United Kingdom is so big, and the wizards named Smith are probably relatives.
Albert did not find the three of Fred when he returned to the common room. He put the Flux in a wooden box, then put the box in his own drawer, and used the Anti-Araho hole-opening spell on it to make sure no one could open the drawer.
At least, most students can't.
The drawer contains some personal notes, his camera, a previously made protective bracelet, and... a treasure map of secret treasures.
Into the forbidden forest?
Albert did have this idea, and now that there is a blessing, he has a little more confidence in success.
It's just that he didn't plan to go now, it's too risky, and he has to wait until he becomes stronger and is not life-threatening before entering.
Exciting adventures are fun, but life is definitely more important.
Just as Albert was about to put the map back in the drawer, the door was suddenly opened, and the three of them walked in with a smile, just to see the scene where Albert was holding the map.
"Look ~IndoMTL.com~ I'll tell you, that map must still be in Albert's hands." Fred had an expression I knew.
Albert calmly put the map back in the drawer, cast a spell on it, shrugged and said to a few people, "Until everything is ready, don't go deep into the Forbidden Forest for adventure, and when I'm ready, I'll talk to you again. You go together."
The three couldn't help looking at each other, then couldn't help but laugh.
"Look, I said Albert is also adventurous." George patted Albert on the shoulder. "When will you teach us the spell to deal with spiders?"
"If you want to safely enter and exit the Forbidden Forest to find treasure, the Optical Spider Scattering Spell will not work." Albert shook his head, "Even if you learn that spell, sooner or later you will be eaten by spiders."
"Why?" Lee Jordan looked puzzled.
"Because the most powerful octopus is the sneak attack." Fred explained, "In the forest, once the octopus succeeds in a sneak attack, it's really over."
"Then why are you still alive?" Lee Jordan said grumpily.
"Last time, those giant spiders didn't plan to kill us all at once," explained George, "but not this time."
Speaking, he pointed to Albert and said, "Last time, when Albert rescued us, he knocked down a large group of eight-eyed giant spiders. I think that group of giant spiders will definitely hold revenge."
"Remorse?"
"I checked the information on the eight-eyed giant spiders, and they can talk and have wisdom," Fred explained. "Next time, we will probably... kill us directly."
"It seems that you don't want to go into the woods to die when your brains are hot." Albert is still satisfied. If Fred and George just want to venture into the Forbidden Forest without a brain, then he has to think about it. .
