Being a bastard at Hogwarts is not safe.

After the troll incident, Brian's life at Hogwarts also began to return to normal. Regarding other chores at Hogwarts, after all, Brian did not receive other tasks assigned by the system, so naturally he didn't have to go into it.

The time has come to the end of November in a blink of an eye. During this more than a month, he naturally has not been idle. Apart from attending classes, he is teaching himself potions in the Room of Response. It is really unexpected to improve this extremely difficult skill to an elementary level. joy.

Ever since he learned that the library's collection of books can be borrowed in large quantities, Brian has started a daily life at three o'clock and one line.Harry and his group hardly saw him except in class, and they often wondered where Brian had gone since Hogwarts was so big.

The main reason they want to find Brian so desperately is that the Hogwarts Quidditch competition will be held this month, and Harry is about to break a new record and become a Gryffindor as a first-year freshman. The starting Seeker.

Wood announced the roster after the team training last time. Harry and Ron stayed up all week excitedly. When they excitedly shared the news with Brian, they seemed to be poured cold water.

"Really, then congratulations, Harry." Brian was sorting out the textbooks of the Transfiguration class, and he replied lightly.

"Praise Merlin, this is the Quidditch school team and the glory of Gryffindor." Ron liked this wizarding sport from the bottom of his heart.

Harry nodded in agreement, and asked, "Brian, will you come to the game?"

Brian was actually not very interested in this sport, but looking at the hopeful eyes of the two in front of him, it was not easy to dampen their interest.He nodded and replied, "Alright Harry, I will definitely be there to cheer for you then."

Hermione got out of nowhere, patted Brian on the shoulder and asked, "Brian, where have you been recently, I can't find you all the time."

"Eh...I've been reading in the Gryffindor common room."

"Really?" Hermione glanced at him with some resentment, and said, "I never see you there every time I come back from the library."

Brian was taken aback, but immediately smiled calmly, and quickly searched the correct choice among hundreds of answers in his mind: "Ah...maybe...I spent too much energy last time, and I'm a little too tired recently , went to bed earlier."

As soon as the troll was mentioned, Hermione naturally let go of pestering Brian, turned around and encouraged Harry, and the competition will officially start tomorrow, because the experience from childhood made him have no confidence in himself, so nervous no.

He couldn't imagine how desperate the wizards of the college would be if Gryffindor lost the game because of his mistakes on the field.

Hehe, now that there is no interference from Quirrell in the original plot, if even a flying talent like Harry loses the game, then it is really a ghost.

A group of people came to the Quidditch stadium without knowing it. Brian laughed and found a reason to leave here. Everyone could see that he was not very interested in this sport, so they said goodbye .

Following Bryan's departure, Hermione standing there had a strong dissatisfaction on her face. She seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with Brian's style of not following the team's actions.Harry and Ron looked at her helplessly, neither of them dared to provoke the current Hermione, otherwise she would become the arrogant school bully she used to be.

"Hey, do you two know where Brian has been recently?" Hermione curled her lips, shook her head, glared at Brian who had gone away, and asked.

Harry and Ron shook their heads. After all, they and Brian were not in the same dormitory. Besides, Brian said that he was studying potions by himself recently. Yuan far point.

Ron sighed and said, "If you want, we can search Hogwarts tomorrow to find Brian."

"Hmph, who cares?" Hermione glanced at the two of them, creaked the rained lawn with her leather shoes, and walked forward angrily.

Harry sighed, glanced secretly at Hermione who was walking away and shook his head, ready to go to Quidditch training.Unexpectedly, she came back again, kicking the grass with her head down, and asked, "What time is tomorrow?"

Harry, Ron:  …

Naturally, Brian didn't want to spend the whole afternoon watching a group of people flying around in the sky, and it was imminent to improve the potion refining level.Because Quirrell's conspiracy has been solved, there will be no more tasks to get upgrade points this semester.

This also means that Brian needs to improve his potion refining level to around the middle level through self-study in the next half a year or so. If he can't reach this level, the potion he refined will have no sale value. , which also made it impossible for him to obtain Golden Galleons during the summer vacation.

During the last visit to Snape's office, many materials were secretly hidden and not destroyed.Fortunately, he was more thoughtful at the time, so there is no need to worry about the expenses for the next half a year, but the level of development next year and in the future depends on his level of study.

After getting along with the system for more than three months, Brian also roughly understands the range of rewards that the system can provide.This chicken soup system is actually different from the ones seen in previous life novels, and it cannot provide material rewards.

So all the materials and equipment need to be prepared by Brian himself, so he needs a lot of money!

It is not an easy way to get rich from alchemy and potions, and it only takes a long time to master it with other spells, and there are tricks, so it cannot be generalized.

Who would have thought that a traveler with a golden finger would still need to worry about money.

As for the news in the restricted area, the progress Bryan has made in the past two months is still very good.

Inside the Responsive Room, Brian put down his pen and raised his arms to stretch his psoas muscles, then stood up and quietly thought about the information he had received.

According to the two twin brothers, who did not want to be named, there were no rumors of death or casualties in the restricted area, and there was no danger of any kind.The two of them had been in and out of here many times at night, and apart from some scary books on classics and dark magic, there was nothing interesting about this place.

Sonia also secretly asked Professor Flitwick, and the professor said that the books in it were just not suitable for young wizards to read.Black magic does not mean evil magic. It is only because Voldemort, who is good at black magic, has caused great damage to the wizarding world. Dumbledore classified these books into the restricted area in order to meet the uniform standards of the wizarding world.

Flitwick even said in private that in order to improve his dueling skills and win the duel competition, he had studied a lot of black magic. The depth of black magic research on magic is actually much higher than that of ordinary magic.

Brian also guessed that the sound at that time might just be his own illusion.However, it is impossible for him to take this risk when there are hidden dangers.I wanted to wait until Harry got the Deathly Hallows to explore the restricted area and asked if he had the same experience, but now that Quirrell's crisis has been resolved, it is impossible for Harry to go to the restricted area to find information about the Philosopher's Stone. .

Brian sat at the long table, tapping the surface with his fingers.

You can only explore after getting the magic boost.
