Chapter 705: Outside the game

"The Alchemist of Harry Potter (!

It is better to say that this is a village than a botanical garden.

Except for a few houses, all the places where everyone can see are greenhouses, which are planted with a wide variety of magic plants.

Before everyone came here, they had been told that the magic garden was actually a forest, so their faces showed such weird expressions.

As for the two wizards at the entrance of the village, they were simply ignored by everyone. There was no way, most people didn't understand what he was talking about.

Ok!

In addition to the three from Hogwarts, plus Karkaroff.

The wizard was actually speaking English, but his accent was a bit weird.

"I'll take you to the temporary residence here to rest." The wizard repeated it three times in English, French and Bulgarian.

It is not easy for him to require part-time translators and guides.

In fact, the most painful part of the Magic School Potions Championship is actually the translation problem. Most wizards come from different countries and have different languages, so they can't communicate well at all. Wizards like Dumbledore who are proficient in multiple languages ​​and can talk to anyone without difficulty are only a few.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is based in English, Boothbatten School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is based in French, and Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is based in Bulgarian.

The Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is located in Scandinavia. The use of Bulgarian in the school is actually related to Nerida Vokanova, the founder of the Durmstrang Academy.

That is a Bulgarian witch.

Therefore, if European countries want to enter Boothbatten School of Witchcraft and Demstrang School, they need to learn the official languages ​​of the two schools.

Otherwise, students from various European countries will not speak and understand, and even life will be a problem, let alone attend class. Let an eleven-year-old child proficiently master another foreign language, it feels painful to think about it.

Of course, the advantage is that most of the wizards from these two schools can speak two languages ​​fluently.

Everyone was taken to a bar, and Bobby, the wizard who led the way, introduced the bar owner, Serena, who seemed to be an Englishman, and was said to have been here for 23 years.

"In the next time, everyone will live here and eat here." Poppy introduced everyone to their respective rooms on the second floor of the bar.

The rooms of the respective colleges are connected in a row.

From the outside, you can see a thicker wall. A door is installed on the wall. After opening, there is a fairly spacious room inside, which has undoubtedly been extended by the Unmarked Stretching Curse.

Boothbarton’s room is across from Hogwarts, and Durmstrang is next door. It seems that everyone is worried that they can’t find their own room. The organizer is very considerate to help everyone put up their own house numbers and use various schools on it. In the usual language, write the name of the room owner.

After putting the luggage, Professor Slughorn knocked on the door of the two of them, intending to take them downstairs to drink something, and by the way, take someone to say hello to the bar owner Selena.

The bar owner Serena is actually a part-time job, and her job is an herbalist.

This bar is actually a place for herbalists and pharmacists living here to relax and chat. It is usually managed by house elves.

Mrs. Selena and Professor Slughorn seemed to know each other, and the topic of the two quickly moved to Albert and Isabel.

She stared at Albert for a long time, and finally enthusiastically recommended a green health drink to the two of them, but Albert declined it, as long as the cup of hot cocoa with milk was added.

Although this town is mostly semi-isolated from the outside world, the house elves will take care of the wizards living here.

Selena quietly told them that the potion contest will be held the day after tomorrow, and they will be taken to visit the greenhouse here tomorrow.

Selena reminded them that they need to pay special attention to those greenhouses where dangerous plants are grown.

As for the magic garden, according to Selena, the only entrance to the magic garden is hidden somewhere in the village.

After drinking the hot cocoa, the two went back to rest separately, while Professor Slughorn stayed to talk to each other about the past and inquire about other news by the way.

Before going to bed, Albert went to Isabel's room, and the two sat on the bed while chatting, playing the wizard chess slowly.

After getting tired of playing, he was tired of whispering in a low voice, and it was not until both of them felt sleepy that Albert quietly returned to his room to rest.

The next day, at 8 o'clock in the morning, after a hearty breakfast, Poppy and two other wizards came over and took everyone to visit the greenhouse in the village.

Only eight teams came.

The other three schools did not come for some reason, which means they gave up this potion championship.

Professor Slughorn was not surprised by this, and even secretly told the two that if there were no outstanding students in this school, they would not come to the potion competition, so as not to embarrass the school.

Hogwarts has also given up participating in the Potions Championship more than once.

"Worry that you won't even pass the first round of selection and elimination?" Albert and Isobel both guessed the reason.

"Yes." Professor Slughorn nodded.

If you can't even pass the first round of selection, that's really a shame.

After all, the first round of selection is actually based on the potion level of the players in each school. Even if the potion is not matched, it means that the foundation is not solid enough.

At that time, even if the referees deliberately release the water and want them to participate in the second round of the competition, they don't know what excuses they can make.

Therefore, it is better to give up from the beginning to make it a joke for others after a meal.

Anyway, everyone has had similar cases, and no one would laugh at anyone.

After being taken around the village, the feeling that this is actually a botanical garden becomes more obvious. There are many strange magic plants and fungi planted in the greenhouse.

If you tell others that this is the magic garden, people who don't know will believe it.

In fact, this place was originally the entrance to the magic garden. Later, some herbalists stayed here temporarily, studying the precious herbs in the magic garden, and gradually formed this village.

Planting a large number of magic plants is actually a helpless move. Wild magic plants cannot satisfy the supply and demand of pharmacists. Therefore, herbalists have to cultivate precious but rare plants in the greenhouse to supply those potion masters and avoid wizards. Take the risk.

The scarcity means that it is valuable, which means that some people will go crazy and take risks because of this, and even cause some particularly precious magic plants to become extinct because of the destruction and picking that they think.

Such cases are not uncommon.

Along the way, Albert saw so many precious plants that he had never heard of.

Unfortunately, they are not allowed to approach. You can only take a look from a distance, and then listen to the people around you to introduce the uses of these plants.

The young wizards who can participate in the potion tournament are all outstanding in the field of potions in various schools, and they are all potential customers in the future.

Moreover, it can be regarded as a reminder for everyone to prevent them from destroying the environment inside, or especially some precious magic plants, after entering the magic garden.

Because the wizards who enter the magic garden will be closely monitored.

On the one hand, it is to protect the magic garden from damage, on the other hand, it is to protect the safety of the contestants, and at the same time provide a basis for the judge's scoring.

Finally, everyone was taken to visit the greenhouse of dangerous plants.

Actually, it's a reminder.

"After entering the magic garden, you probably need to face these dangerous plants." The herbalist explained to the already a little impatient students, "the magic garden is not as safe as you think. You need to be vigilant at all times, any carelessness may make you lose your life."

"Have anyone died at the Potions Championship?" a man in a golden school uniform with an eastern face asked curiously.

"Dead. The most recent time was the beginning of this century. A hapless man was bitten by a poisonous tentacle. He died before he could be rescued."

The wizard glanced at the man with the eastern face, and said to the contestants behind him, "Among the wizards who participated in the magic school potion tournament in the past, there will always be one or two unlucky ones who were carelessly injured by poisonous plants. And being sent to the hospital, I hope you will not become the hapless one among them.

Next, he explained the dangerous plants and precautions in the greenhouse in detail.

Most of them are Class C prohibited trade items. These plants are undoubtedly dangerous, but they are also extremely valuable.

Suddenly, Albert heard the sound of falling to the ground, and everyone turned around and saw a black guy lying on the ground with a gorgeous and enchanting golden trumpet-shaped flower beside him.

"Idiot, is there mud in his head?"

The faces of the wizards were very ugly, and even one of them had a fierce temper and yelled at the principal of Vagado, not forgetting to send people to the village hospital to explain the temporary first aid.

The boy from the Vagado School simply sent himself to the village medical room because of his low hands.

The principal of Vagado looked very ugly, and he didn't expect his students would do such a stupid thing. It's okay, what do you do for picking flowers?

There are a lot of guys gloating about this misfortune, which means that they are missing a potential competitor.

"You better be vigilant, although there are not many dangerous plants in the magic garden, but if you encounter it, it is not worthwhile to save your life before you lose your life." The herbalist Looking at the man who was carried away sideways, he said helplessly: "He has good luck. There are a bunch of experienced pharmacists and herbalists here, but I hope you learn this lesson and don’t make this stupid mistake. ."

After visiting the greenhouse, everyone was discussing about the hapless Vagado student.

"I saw."

Isobel said to Albert privately, "The hapless Vagado student actually did not resist the charm of Miss Veeva, and probably wanted to pick a flower for her, so..."

Bewildered by the charm magic, he was accidentally struck and was carried away sideways.
