Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 713 Out

   Guy Bernard has been in a bad mood lately.

Ever since he lost to Albert Anderson in the first round of the Potions Tournament at the Magic School a few days ago, he found that the talent in potions and the pride in his heart that he had been proud of since he was a child were ruthlessly trampled under his feet. Grind into mud.

   I still remember when I was a child, my grandfather told him that you were very talented in the field of potions.

Guy Bernard also lived up to everyone's expectations. After entering the Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he showed amazing talent in Potions and participated in the Potions Championship, preparing to turn this event held every seven years into Stepping stone to take yourself further.

   However, everything has changed in recent months.

  Grandpa, who has become the president of the Extraordinary Pharmacist Association, told him that if you want to win the Potions Championship, you have to follow his arrangements.

  Guy Bernard actually refused from the bottom of his heart. He believed that his talent and ability could win the golden crucible for him. He didn't need to cheat at all, and he didn't bother to cheat.

"Your potion talent is a bit better than others, and the current achievements are more due to the fact that I spent a lot of energy teaching and cultivating you when I was a child." President Bernard cruelly awakened his grandson's dream, "I told you that you have great talent, and I hope you can maintain enthusiasm and confidence in the field of potions, but now that you are an adult, you need to start to face reality. The world has never been as simple as you think."

  Guy Bernard sadly found that he was able to pass the entrance examination of the Extraordinary Pharmacist Association in one go because his grandfather helped him cheat, so he chose the euphoria.

  In any case, he was unwilling to believe this cruel reality, and still had a chance, thinking that he could still obtain the Golden Crucible with his own ability.

  The first round of competition brutally crushed all the pride of Guy Bernard. Like his grandfather told him, he is just more talented than others, not the so-called genius.

   If you want to take a step forward in the potion field when you are young, the potion championship is a good step to advance. Winning the game can make his next life go more smoothly, and all he needs to do is to follow the opponent's arrangement.

  Guy Bernard originally hated cheating, but he also discovered that the Potions Tournament is just like grandpa said, everyone is cheating, and cheating has long been a part of the game.

  So, Guy Bernard compromised, he wanted to win the final victory, and stomped that annoying Brit underfoot.

Even Guy Bernard had to admit that Albert's handsome face made him extremely jealous. That guy already had a beautiful girlfriend, but he still hooked up with other beautiful girls. scum.

   What made Guy Bernard even more jealous was that the potion master who invented the wolfsbane potion seemed to be very familiar with him, and the two talked on an equal footing.

   Allowing the master of potions to communicate with you on an equal footing means that he recognizes your ability in the field of potions.

How can this be?

  Guy Bernard couldn't believe his guess.

   Is the world crazy?

   Or are you crazy?

   I must be crazy.

  Guy Bernard finally came to the conclusion that he would actually think that the other party was a master of potions.

  That little boy must have cheated, just like himself.

   While Guy Bernard was so self-comforting, President Bernard ruthlessly shattered his illusions. The European magical world has never heard of the surname Anderson, at least Albert Anderson is not from a prominent wizard family.

   Guy Bernard heard again that Albert Anderson was actually a Muggle wizard.

   This news is not groundless. It comes from the British "Daily Prophet". When Albert Anderson won the International Wizard Chess Competition, there was a lot of noise about this matter.

  There are indications that Albert Anderson's current achievements are related to his talent and hard work.

   Because he is the most famous genius wizard in Britain, everyone thinks he is another Albus Dumbledore. Some say his future achievements may even surpass Dumbledore's and become Minister of Magic within a dozen years.

   (Professor Slughorn once boasted to Mrs. Selina in order to get help from her, and successfully persuaded her to help Albert as much as possible.)

  Guy Bernard has lost his vigor, and even more so, his confidence in defeating the British guy. But he hasn't lost yet, he knows the rules of the game and gets a lot of useful "advice".

  Although he was reluctant, Guy Bernard knew that as long as he followed the "advice" given by his grandfather, he had a high probability of winning the final championship. He must pick that damned butter boy under his feet, and take away the last golden cauldron that symbolizes glory.

  Although the life arranged by others is not what he longs for, Guy Bernard actually has no other better choice.

   The second round was actually a trap.

  The original magic school potion tournament only had one round, and the contestants entered the magic garden to collect raw materials and brew a potion.

  The contest party will provide the contestants with a raw material, mainly to test the contestants' knowledge and breadth of potions, and hope that potion geniuses can do amazing things in the competition.

  However, the Magic School Potions Tournament is also gradually changing, that is, there are more first-round screenings, but the actual situation has not changed much.

  This year's Potions Championship, the competition party no longer provides ingredients to the players, which is inconsistent with the news that most players have heard, that is to say, this is a trap.

  If they didn’t listen carefully and thought that the competition would provide them with a raw material, then they would most likely be eliminated ruthlessly.

   In the third round, Guy Bernard is also ready.

   Throughout the summer vacation, he conducted rigorous training with the help of his grandfather. After Guy Bernard knew the old man's good intentions, he felt very complicated.

  Following the "suggestion" given by the old man, Guy Bernard found all the potions with ease. However, in order not to stand out too much, he also collects other ingredients along the way.

   After more than an hour, Guy Bernard had already collected the ingredients for the potion he needed, and was about to leave the magic garden to finish the second round ahead of schedule.

  While passing by several Arriott plants, Guy Bernard suddenly appeared in a trance for a moment, and his head went blank.

By the time Guy Bernard came back to himself, he had a weird taste in his mouth, and worst of all, he found himself lying on the floor laughing hysterically with a few tablets of Arriod leaves.

  What happened to me?

  Guy Bernard didn't even have much energy to think about other issues. The unstoppable laughter almost made him lose most of his thinking ability, and even getting up from the ground was very difficult.

  The change of Guy Bernard immediately attracted the attention of nearby patrol members.

  No way, his laughter is too loud and too weird.

  The patrol member was actually hesitant, not knowing how to deal with the situation.

   There is no doubt that the precious grandson of the president of the Extraordinary Pharmacist Association was attacked by someone. I also know that no idiot would rashly stuff Ariot's leaves into his mouth.

  If he helps now, it means Guy Bernard will be disqualified immediately. If he hadn't stepped forward to help, he doubted whether the other party could survive for half an hour. In this situation, it is obviously impossible for Guy Bernard to walk back by himself.

   Just as the patrol member was hesitating, Albert, who was hidden under the illusion spell, had already left quietly.

  He stuffed a generous amount of Arriot's leaf into Guy Bernard's mouth, trusting the hapless fellow to laugh like **** for hours. As for whether Guy Bernard would laugh himself to death, Albert was not worried at all, and the patrols around him would definitely send him back.

   This means that Guy Bernard will be disqualified.

  In fact, Albert's guess was right.

  The patrol member waited in the distance for a while, and still didn't see Guy Bernard stop laughing wildly, so he knew he couldn't ignore it.

  In order to prevent Guy Bernard from having an accident, he still stepped forward to help and sent him back for treatment.

  Guy Bernard, who was full of confidence and planned to win the final championship, was eliminated in this way. After President Bernard saw his grandson being sent back, his expression was gloomy and terrifying.

  However, after all, the person who can become the president quickly controlled his emotions.

   "Someone violated the rules of the game and tried to use despicable methods to win the championship." Chairman Bernard said softly, "This is not a good sign, we should curb this bad atmosphere."

  Guy Bernard was quickly cured by the pharmacist using heartworm molasses, but he didn't know what happened, let alone who attacked him.

  His face was ugly, because he realized that he had been cheated and eliminated ruthlessly.

  The championship dream was shattered like this.

   This drove Guy Bernard almost crazy.

  The referees got together and urgently discussed how to deal with this kind of thing.

  Under normal circumstances, those who are eliminated can only consider themselves unlucky.

  But Guy Bernard is the grandson of Chairman Bernard, and it is obviously impossible for the other party to accept such a result.

   "Don't worry, we'll find the culprit, just check the contestant's wand and you'll be able to find out who attacked you in no time."

   "As for your situation." Chairman Bernard cleared his throat, "After consultation with the referee team, I will give you an extra chance. Now you can use the raw materials you have collected to brew potions."

   Not everyone agrees to let Guy Bernard continue to play, because it is undoubtedly unfair to others, and there is no such precedent in history.

  The only thing Chairman Bernard can win is to let him use the existing raw materials to brew potions. He believes that his grandson should have collected the raw materials.

  Guy Bernard couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, as long as he wasn't eliminated immediately, he still had a chance, and he had indeed collected the potions, enough to brew two different potions.

However, when he opened the satchel to take out the collected ingredients, the expression on his face suddenly froze, because two kinds of ingredients for the potion he had prepared were inexplicably missing, and these two ingredients just made the ingredients he had prepared Neither potion could be brewed.

   Guy Bernard's face was extremely pale, his body shook slightly twice, and he almost fell down.

"are you OK."

   "That **** moved my medicine box and took away several potion ingredients." Guy Bernard stretched out his hand to cover the position of his heart, gritted his teeth.

  The process from despair to hope to despair is so exciting, it makes his young heart a little overwhelmed.

  President Bernard obviously noticed his grandson's situation, and his expression suddenly became extremely ugly. He understood Guy Bernard's meaning.

   It's over, it's all over.

  President Bernard sat down on the armchair, feeling that the other referees around him looked at him very strangely, as if they were laughing at him for trying so hard and ended up in vain.

  He knew he would soon be a laughing stock in the circle.

   blame the culprit of all this.

  I'm having a hard time, and neither should you.

  President Bernard swore in his heart that he must disqualify that **** from the competition.
