Chapter 706: See also tradition

"The Alchemist of Harry Potter (!

That hapless Vagado student was a wake-up call for all the contestants. The Magic School Potions Championship was definitely not as safe as everyone thought. There are many dangerous plants in the magic garden that will cause a lot of trouble to the contestants and even threaten their lives.

Albert suddenly understood why the headmaster refused to let Sigmund Bach, who was only fourteen years old, go to the Magic School Potions Championship.

However, that happened a few centuries ago, and Albert didn't know what was going on at the time, so he didn't want to make any comments about the thing about Sigmund Bach.

Albert is more concerned about whether the "Sygmund Bach's Last Wish" can be successfully completed and how much benefit it can bring to himself after completion.

He, Albert Anderson is a real person.

In order to ensure that there are no other accidents during the mission, Albert stayed in his room during the afternoon break and made a fortune-telling prediction for the first round of tomorrow’s match. The results seen from the crystal ball were quite satisfactory. .

Before taking a break at night, Albert drank some dreamless sleep pills in order to get a high-quality sleep.

In fact, the Magic School Potions Championship officials also prepare similar potions for the contestants to prevent everyone from being too nervous to sleep at night, so that they can participate in the competition in the best state tomorrow, which is extremely caring.

When he woke up the next day, Albert felt that he was in great condition. When he went downstairs for breakfast, he felt that the atmosphere in the bar hall was a little weird. Everyone looked nervous, and there was a faint smell of gunpowder in the air.

No way, everyone is a competitor, and it is quite restrained not to quarrel.

Last night, a wizard in a bright green robe ridiculed the hapless Vagado student and received a punch in the nose.

Albert was actually curious whether Castro Buscher’s wizard hat was also bright green, but unfortunately he had a fight over there before he had time to ask.

The result is naturally nothing.

Both sides were called out by their respective leaders for a training session, and were ordered to ban fighting, otherwise they would be disqualified from the competition.

However, his idea was confirmed just now. A certain enthusiastic Castrobusche girl told Albert that Castrobusche’s wizard caps were indeed bright green, and their school was better at herbalism and Fantastic Zoology, so there are many times of winning the Golden Crucible of the Magic School Potions Championship, which is considered to be Albert's relatively strong competitor.

While Albert was eating breakfast, Isobel, who had not been there, appeared beside him without warning. She glanced at the Castro Buscher girl and asked, "You seem to be interested in Castro Buscher's school uniform?"

"Where have you been?" Albert changed the subject. He knew that other countries did not have a "green hat", so naturally he would not tell others about it.

"Go and meet a friend."

"friend?"

Albert was confused and couldn't imagine what friends Isabel could find here. If you change to yourself, you might actually meet a few old friends.

"You know too, you'll know later." Isabel said mysteriously.

"Oh." Albert didn't think much, lowered his voice and talked to Isobel about the results of the divination.

After listening to Albert, Isabel's expression suddenly became very weird.

"What's wrong?" Albert asked in confusion.

"In fact, many schools already know that the content of the first round of competition is a euphoria." Isabel said in a low voice.

If there is no predictive ability, Albert will definitely suspect that this is a smoke bomb deliberately released, but the content of the first round of the game is indeed to boil the euphoria, and it is already well known?

"That's it!"

Albert said that he knew it, and then continued to bury his head in the meal. Cheating is not a rare thing, just get used to it.

Isobel didn't speak anymore. She accompanies Albert to eat. She has a good mentality. Anyway, she accompanied Albert to participate in the Potions Championship. It doesn't matter what the result is.

As soon as he finished eating the poached eggs, he saw Professor Slughorn hurriedly approaching here and sat down beside them, panting, and said in a low voice to them: "The content of the first round is... Euphoria."

This is also one of the reasons why Professor Slughorn came over to help the two successfully complete the first round of the game.

Schools will know that the content of the first round of the competition is a euphoria. In fact, it is the official deliberate release of water. You must not let the schools that come to participate in the first round even pass the first round!

Ok.

There have been similar cases before, and there are still many.

Therefore, there was an official release of water afterwards.

Cheating has become the tradition of the Magic School Potions Championship, and this sentence has never been groundless.

After Professor Slughorn finished speaking, Albert and Isabel exchanged glances, smiled and nodded and said, "We already know about this."

"Got it?"

Professor Slughorn mumbled suspiciously: "How did you know?"

"I just heard people from other colleges mentioned it." Isobel casually found a reason, anyway, what everyone knows, they are not surprised to hear others say.

"Then you guys should be... okay, I also brought the copy of Advanced Potions Production with me, if any of you need it..."

"definitely no problem."

Seeing that both of them were very confident, Professor Slughorn didn't say more, but asked them to get a book from him if they needed to review again.

The first round of the Magic School Potions Championship was at ten o'clock in the morning. The venue was on the village square. When everyone passed by, they saw eight big tables set there.

It seems that in order to make it easier for everyone to "help each other", the players from the same school are all arranged at the same table, which makes Albert very disappointed in the so-called Potions Championship.

We have all achieved this level, is it necessary to hold a competition?

In other words, the potions tournament has completely changed since then.

Albert guessed it might be the latter!

After all, the Magic School Potions Tournament was held in 1407, and it has been almost six centuries since it was held in 1407. The tournament will become what it is now, which is actually quite normal.

Nothing is eternal, everything will change over time.

Therefore, Albert actually admires the love of Nicos.

After entering the field, Albert quickly converged his thoughts flying around and looked up at the surrounding referees and spectators, his expression froze suddenly, and he finally knew who Isobel was talking about.

Catherine Nicholas?

How could this exquisite American girl be here, and she seems to be familiar with Isabel?

Albert expressed doubts about this.

It is naturally difficult for beautiful girls to become good friends. They always like to compare their beauty with each other, and they are more likely to become plastic friends.

As for the group of people on the referee's bench, there are really a few acquaintances sitting there. One of them was looking this way and nodded slightly to Albert.

"Damocles?"

Well, it should be correct.

Albert had seen each other's pictures in the newspaper.

Before the start of the Magic School Potions Championship, Bernard, the president of the Extraordinary Wizards Association, gave a speech to everyone:

Everyone is welcome to participate in the 99th Magic School Potions Championship. The content of the first round of the competition is that the contestants need to make a potion of excitement within an hour, and the referee will select eight contestants to participate in the second round.

Albert felt that someone was looking at him, so he turned his head and looked to the side, his gaze fell on the only boy in Boothbarton’s team. He remembered that this man seemed to be the grandson of President Bernard, and he seemed to be called...Guy Burton. Nader?

Forget it, it doesn't matter what you call it, anyway, it's an insignificant guy.

Albert regained his gaze, focused his attention on the wooden table in front of him, carefully checked the tools and raw materials he had allocated, and then after the referee announced the start of the game, he began to slowly process the raw materials.

As long as there are no major errors, one hour is sufficient.

However, it turns out that even the students selected by various schools to participate in the Potions Championship were still a little frantic at first.

In fact, this is completely normal. Even if they know the content a few hours in advance, it will only be enough for them to review the brewing process. Moreover, not all wizards are good at brewing euphoria.

In the middle of the game, Albert had smelled the strange smell more than once, and apparently several students had messed up the game.

Albert was not affected at all, still stirring the potion slowly.

Everyone is cheating. If you want to win the game, you have to do your best to deal with it.

After the liquid in the cauldron turned golden like the sun, Albert immediately turned off the flames, checked the finished product of the euphoria, left the competition venue with satisfaction, and sat down beside Professor Slughorn.

"It's great, whether it's you or Isabel, it's great!" Professor Slughorn didn't hesitate to praise his words.

Albert is indeed a genius in the field of potions, as Dumbledore said, and he is still underage, and his future is incalculable.

Albert was not the first to leave, but was the first player to complete the euphoria. He turned his gaze back to the arena and found that most of the players were messed up.

At least, their euphoria agent is not as perfect as it seems on the surface. A few players even only halfway through it, and time is too late.

Albert thinks that one of the main reasons is the way sleepy beans are handled.

Generally, it is sliced ​​with a silver knife, and the water squeezed out is not enough. UU Reading has caused the change of the euphoria to deviate from the description in the book.

Most people use a few more sleepy beans to solve this problem, but this step is actually very laborious.

Isabel's pot is almost complete, and there are ten minutes left, which is enough for most of the contestants.

At this moment, a golden shadow passed by Albert's eyes, and a scent of a girl's body penetrated into the tip of his nose.

Catherine sat down beside Albert and greeted him with a smile.

At this moment, Albert only felt the word "Danger" floating on his head slowly.
