Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 187 A Belated Task

  The day after receiving the letter of apology from the Ministry of Magic, Albert quietly went to the Room of Requirement, intending to retrieve the gold card and send it back to Hetok.

   After Hetok clarified the matter for him, it would be a trouble to continue to keep the gold card.

The moment he picked up the gold card, Albert looked in a certain direction inadvertently, put the gold card in the pocket of his robe casually, walked slowly to the right, and his gaze fell on an old, blistered surface. On the cabinet, he slowly raised his head, looked at the top of the cabinet, and couldn't help squinting his eyes. There was a bust of a wizard covered with pockmarks, and he was wearing an old gray wig on his head. There's... an old faded crown-like thing.

  Standing blankly in front of the old cabinet, he vaguely heard the whisper from the crown again, his raised hand froze in place, then slowly retracted, turned around and left quickly.

  Ebert left the Room of Requirement, stared at the gold card in his hand, and murmured in a low voice: "This memory should be enough!"

  He put the gold card in the envelope prepared in advance, and then sent it to the original owner Hetok through the school's owl.

   As for, why not your own owl?

  No way, Shera is still on the way to deliver the letter.

  Looking at the owl flying away with the gold card, Albert took a deep breath. This matter is considered to be over, and the original task of collecting gold is considered complete.

   When Albert was about to accept the task, he suddenly found that there was an extra task on his panel.

  The struggle of underage wizards.

  Over the years, the Ministry of Magic traces have occasionally been wrong. It is forbidden to abuse the Department of Magic but never admits the mistakes of the Ministry of Magic and itself. Use your way to make them realize that they are wrong, and apologize or pay for it, and let them understand that even if they have no power, they don’t have much words Underage wizards who have no rights can still express their dissatisfaction in other ways.

  Reward: 3000 experience, Dolores Umbridge favorability -10.

  Albert stood outside the owl shack, muttering to himself: "It's really strange, why is this task triggered at this time? And once triggered, the task has been completed."

"Could it be because he returned the gold card?" Albert guessed the reason in his heart. He walked down the stairs and just returned to the castle. When he came to the foyer, he found a new task panel popped up. Task.

   Thanks Potions Master.

  Gold membership card is very important to Potion Master Hetok, he is very happy that you can return the gold membership card as agreed, and you and your integrity have been recognized by the other party.

  Reward: 100 experience, 1 skill point, Hetok favorability +5, a random skill from the task target, reward item: a bottle of Felicity Elixir.

  Albert, who had just stepped into the auditorium, was also taken aback. He didn't expect that there would be a follow-up to this matter, and the rewards would be so rich.

   Originally thought that picking up money to deceive people was not ambiguous, but it was just the beginning.

  However, Albert was still a little curious, what would happen if he returned the gold membership card to Hetok directly from the beginning.

   Got a galleon?

  Albert has a feeling that the rewards are usually better for difficult tasks.

  However, this time, I really made money. I spent so much time and energy on this matter.

   But how did Hetok get his owl letter so soon?

  From the owl shack to here, even if there is a pause on the way, it will only take ten minutes at most.

  He's nearby?

  Hertock is waiting for his owl in Hogsmeade?

   Albert felt that this was the only possibility.

  It seems that the gold card is more important than Albert expected.

  He just casually sighed in his heart, and then refocused on the task.

  Albert didn't plan to receive the reward for the underage wizard's struggle now, and it would not be a good thing for Dolores Umbridge to decline in his favorability.

  However, he directly received the gratitude from Shijin Bumei and the potion master.

   Then, I found a place to sit in the auditorium, took out the small book in my pocket and pretended to be reading something, and then began to flip through the skill panel to check the skill rewards I got from Hetok.

  This reward is a bit tricky, and which skills you get depends purely on luck.

  Last time, Truman's mission also had a similar reward, and I don't know what it came with. Anyway, Albert couldn't find it when he checked the skill panel.

  Albert found that he had a lot of skills, most of them were level 1 and level 0. There was a long row of skills scrolling down, and it was not easy to find them.

   After searching carefully three times in a row, Albert finally found a skill he had never seen before, called Potion Mastery.

  Well, yes, the skill is potion mastery.

  Actually, the reason why Albert paid attention to this skill is that this skill cannot be upgraded with experience.

  In his impression, the skills that need to be upgraded with skill points are very good.

  This is really exciting news!

  …

  In the auditorium, several Gryffindor students were surrounding Albert, talking in low voices.

   "What's wrong with Albert?" Angelina looked at the motionless Albert in confusion, and asked the Weasley brothers beside him, "Could it be that he was under the full body binding spell?"

When she was talking, Fred actually took the notes from Albert's hand and shook his hand in front of him, but Albert still didn't recover, just like a real statue, sitting quietly Where, thinking about something.

   "No, he is distracted intermittently." George took the small notebook in Fred's hand, and put it upside down in Albert's hand.

   "It looks creepy," Angelina grumbled.

"That's why Albert used this notebook as a disguise." George explained with a smile, "I guess he was thinking about some important issue. But, you're right, if you don't know it, seeing this scene is really scary." of."

"Even if you do this, he won't react!" Fred stretched out his hand to pull Albert's cheek, but the latter stood up abruptly, knocking his head directly on Fred's chin, excruciating pain Fred clutched his chin, crouched on the ground and moaned.

   It hit hard, and the expressions on Fred's face were twisted together because of the pain.

  Angelina's face twitched. To be honest, she was also startled by Albert's sudden standing up just now.

   Li Qiaodan looked at it and shook his head, "If you don't die, you won't die, why don't you know?"

   "Fred, are you still alive?" George asked gloatingly.

"It hurts."

   "Isn't this not dead?"

   "We're twins, right?"

"right."

   "Then I'll share some of the pain with you." Fred stretched out his hand to cover his chin, and suddenly punched his twin brother.

   "Asshole, you actually sneaked up on me."

  The two immediately scuffled together.
