Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 429 Guide

  Will Quirrell try to create the Sorcerer's Stone?

   If Quirrell really tried it, it would be really interesting.

   A long time ago, the magic world has already spread the formula of the Sorcerer's Stone. Most wizards who have studied alchemy know of the existence of this thing. No one knows whether the formula is real or fake.

  Albert believes that the formula of the Sorcerer's Stone is fake.

   After all, there is no second Philosopher's Stone in this world.

  Qi Luo has never been exposed to alchemy, so he probably won't be able to figure out the authenticity of the Sorcerer's Stone formula for a while, and he doesn't know when he will fully react.

  After trying to refine the Philosopher's Stone and failing?

   Or Voldemort gave him a deep reminder after learning about it?

  Alternatively, Quirrell is blinded and unable to start.

   Albert thinks the third possibility is relatively high. Quirrell has never been in the field of alchemy, so he is most likely to be blinded directly.

  Although Albert hoped that Quirrell would spend time making the Sorcerer's Stone, he suddenly found that he spent a lot of time and money, and ended up with a waste stone.

   It's just that what will happen to this matter is beyond his personal control.

   Next, Albert will take the initiative to find Hermione, hand over another translated Philosopher's Stone formula to the other party, and guide them to find Nicole Flamel's information. Anyway, Harry Potter would eventually know about Nicole Flamel's information, so it wouldn't be better to simply let him use it as a favor.

   "You say the things recorded on this parchment are fake?" Hermione asked suspiciously.

   "As long as you look up what the Sorcerer's Stone is, you will know why I said it is fake." Albert said mysteriously.

   At this time, Ron came to find Hermione with wizard chess. Hermione had never played a few games of wizard chess, so she proposed to play wizard cards instead.

It's a pity that Ron doesn't know how to play wizard cards himself, and he doesn't have his own deck, so he naturally doesn't want to play wizard cards. Seeing Hermione reading the contents of the parchment, he gave up his plan to play chess with her and invited Albert plays wizard chess.

  Albert, who was picking up his cat, thought about it and agreed. It was a way to pass the time after dinner, and he also tested Ron's wizard chess level by the way.

   After all, he is going to break into the chessboard arranged by Professor McGonagall another day.

   The two of them were just halfway down when they saw Harry hurried back to the common room.

   "You don't look very pretty, you're not sick from the rain, are you?" Hermione, who watched the two play chess, looked up at Harry who was coming, and asked worriedly.

   "He probably wants to tell you that Snape is going to be the referee!" Albert ordered the queen to eat Ron's knight, and told Ron and Hermione the bad news before Harry.

   Being preempted by someone, Harry felt his chest constricted.

"Oh, my God, it's not fair, how could Snape be qualified to be a referee, everyone knows he hates Gryffindor students." Ron looked at Harry incredulously, wanting to get it from Harry himself know the truth.

   "It's true, Wood told me just now." Harry said gloomily, "Snape will be the referee for the game against Hufflepuff."

   "Don't take part in the competition," said Hermione immediately.

   "Just say you're sick," said Ron, "or break your leg."

"Don't be nervous, Snape is not as scary as you think." Albert looked at the two people who made up their minds in a rather speechless manner. It sounded like Potter was about to face a terrifying monster, "And Ron, if you don't play chess seriously, you're going to lose this game."

  Ron's wizard chess level is not bad, at least better than most people Albert knows, no wonder he can pass Professor McGonagall's chess game.

   "Oh no, already lost!"

  Ron looked at the chessboard for a long time, depressed to find that after his knight was eliminated, the whole game was completely at a disadvantage, and the last chance of turning defeat into victory was completely gone.

   Just then, a fat-faced boy fell into the common room. His legs were glued together, apparently under a leg-locking spell.

  Everyone was laughing when they saw the boy in distress, and Hermione immediately stepped forward to undo the curse on him.

   "What's the matter Neville?" Harry asked.

   "Malfoy," Neville's voice was trembling slightly, "I met him outside the library, and he was looking for someone to practice the Leg Locking Charm."

   "Go to Professor McGonagall!" Hermione suggested, "Sue him!"

   "I don't want to get into trouble anymore." Neville shook his head and muttered vaguely.

   "If you are timid, others will only bully you more severely." Albert frowned slightly. It was not the first time he had encountered campus violence. Weakness would only lead to bullying.

   "What should I do?" Neville asked choked up.

"You should practice the spell well. If Malfoy dares to cast a spell on you next time, you can just find an excuse to give him a hard lesson." Albert narrowed his eyes and suggested, "If it doesn't work, just surprise him." Throw your fist at him, knock off his wand, and he'll be like a Muggle."

   "Yes, that's a great idea!" Harry agreed with Albert.

   "I can't do it," Neville said sadly, "I don't like fighting."

   "But others will bully you." Ron didn't like Neville's character, "You are too timid."

   "Is there no way to help him?" Hermione looked at Albert.

   "It takes him to be brave," said Albert, smoothing Tom's hair.

   "I know I'm timid," Neville choked up, "Malfoy said I don't deserve to be in Gryffindor."

   "Okay, don't be sad, at least the Sorting Hat assigned you to Gryffindor, it doesn't think you lack courage." Albert took out a candy and handed it to Neville.

   "Thank you." Neville peeled off the candy and put it in his mouth.

"If you don't want to be bullied, you should have courage," Albert said to Neville. "Having courage is not as difficult as you think. If someone tries to bully your most important person, you will stand by and watch." Are you watching?"

  Neville's face turned pale, he couldn't help clenching his fists, and walked silently towards the boys' dormitory.

   "Neville is too timid." Ron shook his head.

   "He just lacks the courage to take the first step." Albert took his cat and left.

   "What's that in your hand?" Ron asked curiously, looking at the parchment held in Hermione's hand.

   "This is what Albert gave me just now. Do you still remember the parchment that was found in the treasure last time?" Hermione explained.

   "Oh, it's that terrible treasure map!" Ron couldn't help complaining, "What's written on it."

   "This is the formula of the Sorcerer's Stone." Hermione hesitated, but said, "Albert said this formula is fake."

"Fake?"

  As soon as Harry heard that the recipe was fake, most of his interest in parchment disappeared.

   "How would he know it was fake?" Ron raised his eyebrows slightly.

   "He didn't say, let me find out what the Philosopher's Stone is, and I'll know why this parchment is fake." Hermione was going to take the time to find out what the Philosopher's Stone was.
