Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 864 Fever Sugar

   "I heard people say that the wizard card game has been advanced?"

   Seeing Albert coming, Cedric reached out and took out the "Defense Guide" that he borrowed a few days ago from his school bag, and handed it back to him with a smile.

"Yeah, they all think that the Wizard Card Game should be brought forward to avoid the Triwizard Tournament. I think it makes sense. In the second half of the semester, everyone will pay more attention to the Triwizard Tournament. Few people will care about the Wizard Card Game. "

   "I also heard..." Cedric looked at Albert, and laughed with a split mouth, "Will the champion of the wizard card game be your dance partner at the Christmas ball?"

"Not a dance partner." Albert noticed that the girls around him cast curious glances in this direction, and immediately corrected him, "It's just a few dances at the ball, it's all because of Fred's bad idea. Bring more popularity to the Wizard Card Club."

"What if it's a boy who wins the wizard card championship?" Cedric blinked and teased: "Do you have to dance with boys? I think many girls may look forward to seeing you dancing with boys .”

   "No, if a boy wins the wizard card championship, he will get an extra small gift." Albert shook the "Defense Guide" in his hand and said.

   "This magazine is good, but the price is a bit expensive." Cedric complained: "If the price can be cheaper, I will pay for a subscription myself."

"Is it very expensive? I think the knowledge in it is very practical." Albert's evaluation of Lupin is still good, "Professor Lupine's teaching level is not bad, in fact, it is very suitable for teaching those new students who are new to Defense Against the Dark Arts. , Unfortunately, as a werewolf, no parents would be willing to let their children get close to him, and running a magazine can be regarded as a way to use my spare heat."

   "You're right." Cedric did learn a lot of useful knowledge from the "Defense Guide". "Professor Moody is indeed more suitable for teaching advanced class students."

   "I think Professor Moody should teach some practical magic. The magic that Professor Lupine mentioned in the "Defense Guide" is very practical." Angelina borrowed the "Defense Guide" from Albert.

   "I'm more curious, is Azkaban really like the one described in the magazine?" Shanna had seen Sirius' description of the Azkaban prison, and she could only describe it as horrific.

   "I don't think Black should have deliberately exaggerated the situation in Azkaban." To be honest, after reading Black's description of Azkaban, Albert finally understood why Hagrid was afraid of that.

  The eerie, terrifying, and desperate ghostly place, I am afraid that only those crazy Death Eaters can survive, but it is undeniable that Azkaban Prison does have a strong deterrent effect on ordinary wizards.

   "We should take the time to practice the magic mentioned in the "Defense Guide"." George suggested, "There are many very practical magics in it that we don't know how to use."

  Many people looked this way. They also hoped that Albert could continue the Defense Association last semester. Everyone could always learn a lot of useful things at the party.

   "Professor Moody can spend some time teaching everyone." Albert said without hesitation, "After all, he is a professional in this field, and he must be much better than a half-assed person like me."

  Although it is true, everyone can also hear that this is Albert's evasion. Also, it might be difficult to get Professor Moody to take the time to teach them the spells in the magazine.

   After a while, there were distinctive thumping footsteps in the corridor. Professor Moody walked over with a cane. He stood in front of the classroom door and took out a key from his pocket to open the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.

"Today is a practical class." Moody announced to everyone after entering the classroom, "I will cast the Imperius Curse on each student in turn, let everyone experience the effect of this curse, and teach you how to resist its influence .”

   There was an uproar in the classroom. Everyone knew that the Imperius Curse was an unforgivable curse, and they had strong inner resistance to it.

   "Professor Dumbledore wants you to feel..." Before Professor Moody could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a weak voice.

   "Professor, I seem to be sick..." Albert said suddenly, "I'm afraid I have to go to the school hospital."

Everyone turned their heads to look at Albert, their faces were a little dazed, because he found that Albert, who was still alive and kicking, suddenly became pale, and there was an abnormal flush, looking very special. haggard.

   "Professor, Albert seems to have a fever. I think he must have caught the flu." George reached out to Albert's forehead and said immediately, "I'll send him to the school hospital right away!"

   Before Professor Moody could react, George led Albert towards the outside of the classroom.

   Then, before everyone could react, it disappeared from their sight.

   "That guy was fine just now, why did he suddenly have a fever?" The boy next to Cedric said, "Maybe he pretended to be afraid of embarrassment later!"

   "He doesn't look like he's pretending." Cedric shook his head.

  However, he probably guessed the reason. Albert probably didn't want Professor Moody to use the Imperius Curse on him, so he skipped the afternoon Defense Against the Dark Arts class in this way.

   Well, as long as the students in the classroom have no problem with their brains, they will know that Albert actually doesn't want Professor Moody to use the Imperius Curse on himself, and use this method to find a way for both parties.

  As for how he did it, no one knows, but his face just now obviously doesn't seem to be pretending.

At this moment, Moody was in a daze. He originally planned to use this opportunity to test Albert's resistance to the Imperius Curse, but after hearing the content of this class, the other party resolutely pretended to be sick and skipped class and slipped away. Don't give him any chance at all.

  Anyway, when everyone saw Albert in the auditorium, his face did not look like he was sick and had a high fever just now.

   "Albert, what method did you use in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class?" Angelina asked curiously, "It's as if you really had a high fever. How did you do it?"

   "Use this thing." Fred mysteriously took out a hard candy with two colors from his robe pocket.

"What's this?"

"Quick-acting skipping class candy, one of the series of magical candies." Fred explained in a low voice: "If you eat this kind of candy, you will have a fever. Of course, if you use it directly, this is an ordinary candy, even if the professor Pull this thing out of your pocket and let you eat it, and you'll find it's just an ordinary candy."

   "It's very useful, can you give us a few?" Angelina asked expectantly, "Maybe it will come in handy sometime."

   "Two Sickles for one." George said without thinking.

   "So expensive?" The girls all stared wide-eyed.

   "If the material formula and production tools can be improved, the price should be able to be reduced to about one Sickle. Now these are all handmade by us, so it is normal that the price is relatively expensive."

Albert took out a few fever candies from the pocket of his robe, gave them one each, and told them, "I won't accept your Xi Ke this time, remember to help keep it secret, the way to use it is to separate the candies and mark them with N That part is the antidote."

   "What a genius idea, who came up with the idea?" Shanna looked at the candy in her hand.

   "Fred and George." Albert changed the subject, "Tell me about what happened in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."

After the girls were diverted by Albert, they began to chat about interesting things in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. For example, Fred sang a Hogwarts school song about Professor Moody being controlled, and Cedric was in Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he danced an elegant ballet, which almost shocked others' jaws.

  Anyway, none of the sixth graders could resist the spell, and it was only after Moody removed the spell that they returned to normal.

   "What spell did Professor Moody use to eliminate the effects of the Imperius Curse?" Albert found this a bit strange.

  If the Imperius Curse can really be lifted, the original Imperius Curse will not have a serious impact on the British magic world. After all, as long as the Imperius Curse is undone every day, the risk of contact and penetration can be completely avoided.

   At least, he doesn't think wizards are idiots, not even that.

   Albert felt that when he went to find Dumbledore in two days, he could ask him about this matter by the way. It would be better if Dumbledore knew the principle of the anti-thief waterfall.

  However, Albert suspected that Gringotts' anti-thief waterfall might be related to the magic of goblins. The magic of goblins and the magic of wizards are not in the same system.
