Hogwarts Wandering Wizard

Chapter 173 An unexpected letter

After obtaining the formula of the Fortune Elixir, he started the preparation work of brewing the Fortune Elixir.

This kind of potion takes half a year to brew, and each material is put into the crucible at a different time, so Eric is also very attentive to the preparation work.

The plant materials needed for the potion are actually quite good, and some can be found in the school's greenhouse. The rest can be written to Teemo and asked to be taken to Diagon Alley to buy. Under the influence of Jin Galleon, Diagon Alley The service attitude of that store is very good.

After a month of preparation, until this afternoon, he finally gathered the necessary materials for brewing the elixir.

When the students finally fell asleep, Eric put on the invisibility cloak, evaded Nick who was wandering between the seventh and eighth floors, and came to the Room of Requirement. At his request, a sophisticated set of tools appeared in the Room of Requirement. Potion preparation equipment.

Recently, he has also been studying potions knowledge. He has read Snape's Half-Blood Prince's version of "Advanced Potion Making" many times. With continuous study, his potion science level has finally slowly risen to level 2.

With a wave of the magic wand, the flame under the crucible rose. When the water in the pot was dried and the heat was emitted, Eric began to add the standard ingredients of the potion and began the first preparation.

The initial work was easier, but also boring, requiring the preparer to manually stir all the potion materials. Eric held the glass rod and stared at the rippled potion he stirred. The robot mode took effect silently, and his mind was filled with excitement. Began thinking about Animagus transformation.

Animagus training is more demanding. It requires practitioners to hold mandrake leaves in their mouths from the day of the full moon until the next full moon.

Eric had already checked, and the next full moon happened to be Sunday next week, which was the day when their Quidditch team played against Ravenclaw, so he didn't need to suck on the leaves this week.

However, after the potion required for Animagus transformation is mastered, the practitioner needs to choose the object of transformation in his mind for the first time.

Eric was also a little unsure about what kind of animal he had transformed into.

Romer gave a suggestion in the afternoon - raven. She said that she particularly likes this kind of creature. It is full of mystery and can fly, but it seems a bit ugly in appearance.He also tentatively asked the Weasley brothers once, and the two guys took out a newspaper clipping of a naughty raccoon and suggested that Eric consider transforming into a raccoon.

Time passed in circles of boring stirring. When the time on the pocket watch reached four o'clock, Eric used the system backpack to put away the half-boiled potion.

Things in the system space can maintain a static state of time, so there is no need to worry about the potion being destroyed due to disconnection of preparation.

After doing this, Eric put on the invisibility cloak again and returned to the dormitory.

In the next few days, Eric did this every night. After everyone went to bed, he went to the Room of Requirement and continued to brew the elixir of blessing.This continuous lack of sleep also made it difficult for him to concentrate during training every evening.

But even so, his performance is much better than the other two novices. Without him, after wearing the Supreme Merlin Ring, his movement speed has been increased by 21%, he can fly faster, and sometimes he can react Faster performance.

But looking at their state, Charlie couldn't help but sigh privately on the way back. He no longer had any illusions about defeating Ravenclaw, he just hoped that he wouldn't lose too badly that day.

……

On Wednesday night, Gryffindor House and Slytherin House once again climbed up to the Astronomy Tower. Due to the heavy rain tonight, no stars could be seen at all. Professor Sinistra allowed them to move freely after a while. .

Eric and the four of them hid in the corner of the observatory and gathered together to warm themselves over the fire.

The flame is a portable flame conjured by Eric. He learned from the book the knowledge of storing fire in bottles. Although the flame does not look big, the heat it emits is no less than a huge bonfire.

"So, what are you going to do for Sunday's game?"

Romer also came close to the four of them, imitating their posture of warming up to the fire, sitting down cross-legged, reaching out to stir up the flames, his eyes fixed on Eric's face: "Every game in school I pull the ghost Come watch the game, Ravenclaw’s team is really strong this year, and I heard someone say that the student who scored countless goals is your brother?”

"Cousin!"

"Tsk, you don't know. Every time Ravenclaw wins, Helena will have that condescending look on her face for several days in a row. It's really annoying."

Romer poked the fire with his fingers. At the end of the sentence, the flame trembled violently, almost showing that it had been shaken away. Eric hurriedly used his wand to strengthen the flame.

Seeing that the flames were almost dispersed, Romer quickly retracted his finger, remained silent for a while, and then continued: "And the level of chasers in your team now is not good. I feel like you may fight this Sunday. It’s very difficult.”

Fred suddenly slapped his thigh, clenched his fists and whispered a suggestion to his companions in front of him: "Otherwise, we wait until that morning and give the Ravenclaw team members an injection when they have breakfast. How about poisoning them with diarrhea!”

The other three plus one ghost were stunned when they heard what he said. They looked at Fred with a fierce face in surprise. Their throats trembled for a long time before Lee Jordan reached out and pressed down Fred's raised fist and whispered advice. Said: "No, man, and everyone will be going to have breakfast that morning, you can't possibly poison him successfully."

"Yes, brother, put away your dangerous thoughts. If anyone finds out, you will probably be put in solitary confinement."

The three of them quickly dismissed Fred's dangerous idea, but then fell into silence.

Until the end of get out of class, a white figure cut through the sky lightly, rushed into the observatory carrying rain, flapped its wings, shook off countless water droplets, and landed in front of Eric.

"Shet, Eric, can your bird be gentle and splash me with water?"

Because Li and George were sitting on either side of Eric, they were splashed by Teemo's wings. At this moment, they got up and complained to Teemo.

But Teemo, who had just been exposed to the wind and rain, could not hear his complaints. This guy was not his master. He was dissatisfied and pecked his calves with his sharp beak several times, sending Li Jordan running around.

Eric opened the envelope wrapped in brown paper and knew it was a letter from his parents when he saw the writing on the cover.

He quickly opened the letter and read it quickly under the light of the bottle, but soon the expression on his face became extremely exciting.

Fred and George saw the strange expression on Eric's face that looked like crying and laughing. They looked at each other in confusion and asked in unison: "What's wrong Eric? What happened?"

Eric put away the letter, twitched the corner of his mouth a few times, glanced at the two people beside him and Romer's face, and said speechlessly: "My father wrote a letter saying that Dumbledore sent an invitation to them. Come watch us play on Sunday.”

Karl's letter also mentioned a surprise, but Eric didn't take it seriously. He even felt that the so-called surprise might turn into a shock.

"what?"

The Weasley brothers were also completely shocked. They did not expect that Dumbledore would actually have such an operation: "Can people from outside the school come in during Quidditch matches?"

"This is normal!" Romer explained: "Even during normal games, residents of Hogsmeade will come. Think about it again, do you see vendors selling snacks and candies every time? , in fact, those are also the spectators who bought tickets to watch the football games. And for the semi-finals and finals of each semester, Hogwarts tickets are sold to the public. After all, this is also one of the sources of school operating funds."

Eric couldn't help but slap his forehead after hearing this, and suddenly felt that the old principal's operation was really puzzling.

In the brightly lit principal's office, a figure stood in front of the window with Dumbledore, looking in the direction of the astronomy tower.It could be seen that the two of them were in a good mood. Happy laughter continued to echo in the principal's room, and from time to time there was the sound of the two clinking glasses.

The only strange thing is that in the principal's office behind the two of them, the portraits on the wall, the sorting hat, and the phoenix combing its feathers are as motionless as stone statues. Even the flames and the heat floating above the teacup are like photos. , stagnated there.
