Chapter 88: Really shame on alchemy

"Does Mars have no satellites?" Fred was doing his homework. Not long ago, he discovered that he had forgotten the homework of the astronomy class, and now he can only do one temporarily.

"Mars has two satellites, but the satellites are relatively small." While flipping through the book, Albert answered Fred's question: "The closer to the sun, the less likely it is to form satellites. Mercury and Venus have no satellites."

"That... Mercury and Venus, which is closer to the sun." Fred continued to ask.

"Mercury is closer to the sun."

"Finally caught up, help me check that there is an error." A few minutes later, Fred stretched out and passed the parchment across the table to Albert on the opposite side.

The homework of the astronomy class is to draw a solar system astrological map. On the map, you need to draw a few large planets in detail, and you need to mark the names of the planets and the number of satellites.

Albert glanced at the astrological chart on the parchment and saw the problem with Fred’s homework. He reminded him, "The positions of Saturn and Jupiter are wrong."

Fred took the parchment and changed the positions of Saturn and Jupiter.

After finishing his homework, Fred stretched, turned his head to look at George next to him and asked, "Have you finished?"

George took it for granted: "It's done a long time ago."

Fred pretended to be angry and said: "Traitor, you secretly do your homework without telling me."

"At that time I asked you to do it together, but you didn't do it yourself. Who can you blame?" George couldn't help rolling his eyes at Fred, "I still remember what you said back then..."

"When you are done, lend me a copy." Lee Jordan grinned.

"Yes, you said that at the time."

"You didn't lend me a copy."

"You didn't say to copy again!"

The twins started quarreling daily again. In fact, the two of them were too busy. If they were busy, they would have no time to do such things.

"What book are you reading again?" Lee Jordan asked curiously. He is writing today's homework. They will always get used to doing homework with Albert. The advantage is that if you have any questions, you can ask immediately, usually you can get it. Jie Da, much faster than doing homework by himself.

"Fool-style alchemy." Albert turned the book upside down and showed him the cover of the book. This book is "Simple Alchemy" introduced by Professor Broad.

"There seems to be no alchemy in the school." Angelina walked towards this side, holding a single telescope that will be used in astronomy class in her hand, standing behind Albert and asked: "By the way, when are you going? Astronomy Tower, class time is almost here."

"Wait another ten minutes." Albert took out his pocket watch, "I don't want to stay on the tower to blow the air."

He put his pocket watch aside and continued to look at the book in his hand. It's a pity that this book is a bit thin, and even after reading it, it can't be counted in a hundred.

The author of "Simple Alchemy" is Joko.

That's right, it's the Joko from the Joko joke shop in Hogsmeade.

To be honest, when Albert first saw the name of the author of this book, he was really surprised.

Of course, it’s not hard to guess what the book will be written by the owner of the joke shop.

This book is actually telling everyone about the relationship between spells and alchemy.

The invisibility cloak that originally sounded tall, turned into a cloak with a blinding curse in this book.

Yes, this thing becomes the so-called alchemy prop.

Blind Eye Curse can disguise an object, making it an inconspicuous stone on the side of the road, or something else.

However, in the eyes of some wizards, using the Blindfold Curse on a cloak is undoubtedly redundant, and they can use it on themselves.

Albert flipped through it, and he really found a way to make the amulet.

It's just that the introduction in the book is not to use the protection tree to make amulets, but to use the expulsion spell.

The amulet made by this kind of spell can expel some of the dark creatures, but at the same time it will cause trouble to wear.

When you carry this kind of amulet with you, it is difficult to receive the owl’s mail again. The expulsion spell on the amulet will also expel the owl.

Wizards who usually use this method to make amulets, the level of use of spells is usually very average, and they can't further use the expelling spell.

"Simple Alchemy" also records the manufacturing methods of some prank and joke props. However, these weird things are not welcomed by most alchemists.

After reading the whole book, Albert felt only one word: speechless.

The most shameful thing is that at the end of this book, there is also an alchemy item that claims to be able to drive away vampires—the garlic cross.

Albert almost laughed when he saw the name.

is almost the same as the name. It uses the principle that vampires hate garlic to create a cross that exudes the smell of garlic.

The simple method of making garlic cross is as follows:

To make a wooden cross, use alcohol to extract garlic, heat and mix the extracted liquid with beeswax or essential oil in a water bath, and apply the mixture to the cross to make the cross full of garlic...

Carrying a garlic-flavored cross with him, there is a sense of inexplicable joy.

Well, this book is really a shame on alchemy!

"Is alchemy interesting?" Fred asked curiouslyinteresting? No, alchemy is not interesting, but this book is very interesting. Albert closed the book and handed it to Fred, "After reading this book, my understanding of alchemy has greatly changed. "

"Let me see..." Fred turned a few pages and said regretfully, "This book is still a bit too advanced for us to understand at all."

"If there is alchemy, it should be an optional course in the third grade, but Hogwarts does not have it." Fred said with regret.

"Let me see." George took the book, and suddenly shouted, shocking the people next to him.

"What are you calling?" Li Qiaodan stared at George in a bad mood.

"Look, you must have not found out who the author of this book is."

"Author?"

"Zoko." George has been deeply attracted by the above method of making joke props.

"Zoko from the Joko Joke Shop." Several people asked curiously.

"Yes, it's him." Despite George's grimace, Albert put the book in his bag, "Let's go, time is almost up, if you are interested, there is still a long time, anyway, the book is there."

"By the way, why are you interested in this?" George asked curiously as he climbed the spiral staircase.

"I happened to talk about Defense Against the Dark Arts when I talked to Professor Brod. He suggested that I read this book, so I borrowed it." Albert looked helpless: "It's just, I didn't expect The content of this book is indeed a bit beyond my expectations."

After reading "Simple Alchemy", Albert's understanding of alchemy has gone wrong. Are the things in the book really alchemy?

In this regard, Albert reserved his doubts in this regard.
