Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 720 Know nothing

  After the first two rounds of elimination, there were originally eight schools and 23 contestants, and only four contestants remained in the final round.

  Many school leaders expressed confusion about the so-called third round of the Potions Championship.

  There were only two rounds of Potion Championships in the past. The first round was used to select the top players, and the second round was used to test the players' comprehensive ability.

  Whoever has the highest score wins the championship.

  However, changes have taken place in this year's Potions Championship. Not only has a third round been added, but even the selection of the champion has become the total score of the three rounds.

   Not long ago, everyone realized the reason for changing the rules after learning about the content of the third round of the Potions Championship.

  The contestants need to write down the ingredients needed to brew the potion in the third round within half an hour, which means that those who have prepared early will have an advantage.

  As for the so-called allowing contestants to display their talents, it is just a good excuse, and everyone understands the reason in their hearts.

   This round of competition has a great advantage for Guy Bernard. Maybe the **** was preparing for it a few months ago?

   And, God knows if there will be any other pitfalls in the third round.

The hidden trap of the second round of the competition has pitted most of the contestants, and Guy Bernard will undoubtedly be able to use the first two rounds of competition to widen the huge score gap with other players, plus the already prepared third After a round of competition, it is absolutely possible to win the Potions Championship with a crushing score.

   It is not wrong to say that it is the imperial champion.

It's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes. President Bernard, who has made so many preparations, would have expected his grandson, Guy Bernard, to be eliminated in the second round. Made a wedding dress for someone else.

   It's no wonder that he was so angry and caused a lot of trouble, but the murderer who attacked Guy Bernard has not been caught yet.

   I believe that in recent years, President Bernard will be the joke in the potion circle.

   "Mr. Anderson, is there something wrong with your ingredient list?"

After reading the parchment that Albert gave him, Professor Slughorn couldn't help but raise his voice a little bit. He looked up at the genius in front of him, frowned and asked, "Are you really planning to compete in the third round?" When is it time to make Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion?"

  Although the raw materials of Buffy's Brain Refreshing Potion on the parchment have undergone some changes, Professor Slughorn, as an expert in the field of potions, can naturally tell from the materials what kind of potion Albert is going to brew.

No wonder he was so excited. There are several potions in the magic world that most potion masters are unwilling to touch. Buffy's Brain Refreshing Potion is one of them. The potion will be completely useless.

   Moreover, the raw materials of Buffy's Brain Refreshing Potion are as expensive and scarce as the raw materials of Felicia Potion, so few pharmacists would want to challenge this thing, even if they are rich.

You know, although Felicia is tough, you can buy some if you have money, but the perfect and harmless finished product of Buffy, which is famous for burning people's heads, is basically not available on the market. What you can buy in the black market is Toxic and inferior products, if you drink them without water, you can book a permanent bed on the fourth floor of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Sickness.

   Albert actually planned to cook this thing during the game. From Professor Slughorn's point of view, he planned to abstain directly.

Before Albert could answer, Professor Slughorn persuaded him again: "I believe you have the ability to make a perfect Buffy brain-boosting potion, but there is also a chance of failure. I don't think you need to take any risks at all. Even a master of potions would not try something like Buffy's mind-boosting potion."

   According to Professor Slughorn, Albert is completely betting on his own future, there is really no need for this!

"Let me tell you, don't keep thinking about innovation. It's a trap. Most students can't do that. Your current score is far ahead of others. As long as you can successfully brew the potion, think about it." It's not difficult to win the competition." Professor Slughorn continued to persuade, if he didn't speak to persuade Albert at this time, it would be his dereliction of duty.

   This is almost a losing bet.

  The golden cauldron is already in front of you, why not just reach for it?

   "Ahem, is your side alright?"

  President Bernard naturally also heard the conversation on their side, and found that Albert was so stupid as to brew Buffy's mind-boosting potion, so he naturally didn't plan to give Professor Slughorn time to persuade the other party to change his mind.

"alright."

  After Albert submitted the list of ingredients, the referee seat also exploded.

   "I remember that Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion has long been listed as a dangerous potion that is prohibited from drinking and trading?"

  No one thinks that Albert can make Buffy's mind-boosting potion, let alone improve it.

  If he can really achieve this level, then what are the group of people sitting here? Should he give up his position to the other party?

   "This looks more like a farce."

   "Maybe, we can give him a chance."

   "It's not fair to the other players."

   "We should ask him to confirm again." Damocles glanced at President Bernard and said calmly: "To be honest, I'm curious to what extent he can improve the Buffy brain refresher."

   "Do you think he will succeed?"

   "Do you know some inside information?" Damocles' words immediately aroused the curiosity of others.

   "Well, I know a little bit. Hetok asked me to study this thing together. Unfortunately, I was busy improving Wolfsbane potion at that time." Damocles recalled, he didn't expect Hetok to be successful.

   "So, this thing is Mr. Hetok's improvement?"

   "Mr. Anderson should also be involved."

   "Are you sure he didn't work for Mr. Hattock?"

   "Albert often provides us with suggestions and ideas for improving potions. Didn't I mention that Mr. Anderson also provided us with many useful suggestions for the improvement of Wolf's Poison?"

  Suddenly, the referee seat exploded.

  They seem to have heard some heavy news just now.

   "Why doesn't he do it himself?"

  Some people expressed doubts about this, and most of them did not believe it. Would anyone be willing to give up their achievements to others?

   Anyway, they don't believe it.

   "Probably because he has no time to go to school, no raw materials to try." Damocles said quietly, "Anyway, he doesn't seem to care much, maybe he is just looking for an opportunity to try?"

   "But doesn't he want to be a champion?"

   Of all the people present, probably only Catherine guessed the reason, and their expressions were extremely complicated.

  Buffy Brain Refreshing Agent is the cooperation between the two parties.

  They provided the raw materials of Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion for him to practice. Albert dared to use Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion to participate in the last round of the competition, which meant that he was already very proficient in this aspect.

   This can be regarded as an explanation to them.

   I just don’t know how effective this improved version is.

   "Mr. Anderson, are you sure you need the ingredients on this list?"

   "Exactly."

   "Are you going to make Buffy's Brain Refreshing Potion?"

"Is there a problem?"

   After a brief silence.

   "No, we're just curious." The female referee said, "I think you should be very clear about what Buffy's brain refresher is."

   "Yes, I know very well." Albert said calmly.

   "Have you cooked it?"

   "Is this related to the game?" Albert asked slightly raising his eyebrows.

   "No, we're just a little... curious, if you don't want to answer that's fine."

   "Since it was his choice, I think his choice should be respected." President Bernard's lips curled up slightly, "Maybe Mr. Anderson can bring us unexpected surprises."

  President Bernard would like to see the remorse and desperation of Albert who lost the Potions Championship due to his own stupidity.

  Catherine glanced at Chairman Bernard, feeling sympathetic to him.

   Find the wrong opponent!

   In the past few days, she thought about it carefully, and felt that the matter of Guy Bernard was probably caused by Albert.

   Everyone knows that he is a genius, but they don't know how talented he is. It is purely an error in information.

  Is wandless magic really hard?

   Yes, it's really hard, most wizards can't do it.

  That's why they didn't doubt Albert.

   But in Catherine's view, if the students of Waggadu can do it, there is no reason why Albert can't do it.

   Besides, would a guy like that be attacked without vigilance?

   It feels suspicious to think about it.

   "Williams, don't put pressure on yourself, and don't leave regrets for yourself." Catherine said to her own players.

  Williams: “…”

  Is this considered advance comfort?

  The game hasn't even started yet, why do you think I'm going to lose?
