Librarian at Hogwarts

The process of alchemy is a very tedious process.

After all, what is being refined this time is a powerful black magic item like soul powder.

Of course, the guest also requested some simple dark magic items.

However, fortunately, Igno has enough time, patience, and superb abilities.

These are not very complicated things for him.

Although he has never actually refined them, he has a very thorough understanding of the principles of these black magic items.

Therefore, he basically found the trick immediately after failing once or twice.

He waved his wand.

Each alchemical item was divided into small pieces and then mixed together in different ways.

This process is very long.

During this period, even if Igno's body was iron-clad, he had to constantly drink a spiritual supplement potion to keep his brain awake.

He refined it for six days.

There was no rest every day, for six whole days.

When he walked out of the alchemy room, he was still in high spirits.

Such is the power of the Psychic Potion.

After he finished refining the alchemy items needed by the guest, he fell asleep directly.

I slept until the afternoon of the next day.

"How can this dead pig sleep so well?"

Igno felt that the voice of the person speaking next to his ear was very familiar.

He struggled to open his eyes.

Sure enough, it was Neil.

Neil sat on Igno's bedside, still in the Leaky Cauldron.

Ever since Igno came out of the alchemy house, he collapsed in the bar.

Then, Tom carried Igno to the room upstairs so that he could have a good rest.

"Should I go see a therapist or something..."

"What if he stays asleep?"

As Neil spoke, he began to worry.

He didn't know how much mental energy was consumed in the process of alchemy, but when he knew that Igno had not slept for almost six nights, he felt uneasy.

"you are a pig."

Ignat responded clearly.

This made Neil's initial shock immediately turn into joy.

"Merlin's beard!"

"I almost thought it was my auditory hallucination!"

Neil quickly touched Igno.

After a day's rest, Igno basically had no problems.

Except, he still yawns from time to time.

After all, it's a side effect of psychic power potions.

The best way to eliminate it is to get more sleep.

"How did you find this place?"

Ignat looked at Neil and asked.

Neil replied: "I saw you hadn't come back for several days...so I thought you must have come to Tom's place."

Igno suddenly remembered the expedition to the ruins. He looked around and saw that there was no calendar or anything like that. Then he quickly asked Neil, "What day is it today? The ruins team has already set off." "

Neil was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, the ruins team has already set off. They set out yesterday."

"You don't have to worry, though."

"Basi and I have always been in contact. As long as you are in better health, we will leave at any time."

Neil told Ignat what had happened in the past few days like he was pouring beans.

It turned out that Ignat slept past the time for the ruins expedition team to assemble.

This is also the reason why Neil came to find Igno.

"McGonagall and Bassy are together now. I think they are still watching from the outside of the ruins."

"But there shouldn't be any problems for the time being."

Igno nodded.

He was ready to get up and go.

Neil seemed to have no problem seeing Igno and did not stop him.

After all, this ruins expedition now involves many aspects.

The two of them will definitely not miss this action.

Ignat went downstairs, ready to say hello to Tom before leaving.

On the contrary, Tom was not seen in the bar.

Instead, they only found the note left by Tom.

"Go out and deliver the goods."

Still Tom style.

Ignat knew that Tom should have taken away the black magic alchemy item he refined.

So, he didn't stay any longer and went out to the ruins with Neil.

......

The location of the ruins is quite far from the Leaky Cauldron.

Fortunately, there was a landmark that Bascida passed through.

It only took a few seconds for Igno and Neil to reach the location of the ruins.

This is the periphery of the ruins.

On an empty plain.

In the distance are the foothills of the Alps.

And here is the birthplace of the Rhine River.

Ignat glanced around.

There was snow all around and the sky was dark.

On this plain, there are many tents.

They are enchanted and are where the expedition team lives.

"Igno!"

"Neil!"

Bascida's voice came from not far away.

Various protective spells have long been cast here.

As soon as someone comes out, they will be noticed.

And once it is a stranger, that is, someone who is not on the invitation list, the alarm will sound and they will be attacked.

Therefore, as soon as Neil and Ignat appeared here, there was a hint from Bathida.

She and Mag came out together to greet them.

"Nothing happened?"

"Neil said you've been sleeping for a long time."

As soon as Bascida saw Ignat, she quickly asked.

Mag on the side also cast a concerned look.

Igno smiled and shook his head.

"It's nothing serious, it's just that I used too much energy."

Bascida nodded and said: "This is the station of the ruins expedition team. Yesterday, Septimus just preached the expedition ceremony. He seemed to be very confident in this expedition."

"Now, they are discussing how to group them. Each group will enter the ruins from different locations and look for the Eye of Magnus."

Basilda said while pointing to the largest silver tent in the middle of the camp.

There is the strategic location of this expedition.

Those big shots with dignity were all sitting in the tent, arguing endlessly for their own interests.

Because judging from the findings of the expedition team in the past few days.

In the ruins, it is estimated that in addition to the most valuable Eye of Magnus, there are also many rare resources.

Therefore, everyone is trying their best to maximize their own profits.

Because the purpose of this expedition is: first come, first served.

This has also allowed many weaker forces to actively move closer to larger forces, or to recruit others to form a large force to increase their own weight.

Ignat listened and Bascida analyzed the current situation.

At present, the main forces are like this.

The four magic academies have each formed four forces, and in the past few days, many scattered wizard forces have extended an olive branch to Bascida for friendly cooperation.

Bascida did not refuse, because at this time, there is strength in numbers.

The wizarding noble group headed by Malfoy has obviously become a force.

Although on the surface they welcome many wizards to join, in fact, they have already decided on the candidates and even distributed the benefits.

The next ones are the group of healers from the Magic Hospital, but according to Bascida, they don't seem to really intend to enter the ruins. They may become reserve personnel or treatment troops and be left in the camp.

And this idea seems to be Septimus’s.

In fact, Igno was not surprised by this.

He knew that Septimus must be wary of Bonham getting the Eye of Magnus first, so just in case, all healers were prohibited from entering the ruins, which was indeed a wise idea.

Moreover, Septimus's excuse that a healer is not good at combat and does good logistics work will also make the other forces participating in the expedition agree.

After all, who doesn’t want to have logistical support?

"Septimus is quite disgusting."

Ignat smiled.

He already understood why what was supposed to be a secret became such a large-scale operation.

Ignat guessed that this was probably Bonham and the others who had played a dirty trick here, hoping that Septimus would suffer the loss of being dumb.

So, they made the matter bigger so that Septimus could not secretly swallow the Eye of Magnus.

Because, as long as this matter attracts a lot of attention, even if Septimus obtains the Eye of Magnus, he may have to hand it over to Hogwarts because it is Slytherin's legacy.

Although this sounds like there will be many twists and turns in the process, it is still a good approach.

However, Septimus is not the kind of person who gets frustrated easily.

He then kept all the healers off limits.

However, unfortunately, he still had to accept forces like Hogwarts to enter the ruins.

This is exactly the result of a multi-party game.

A seemingly lively expedition to the ruins, but behind it, many forces are secretly surging.
