Chapter 711: cheat

"The Alchemist of Harry Potter (!

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The second round of the Magic School Potions Championship has quietly arrived with the fading night.

Early in the morning, Albert woke up from his deep sleep, stretched his waist lazily, got dressed and washed and was about to go downstairs to eat. It happened to meet Professor Slughorn who was yawning at the stairs. The old man was obviously not used to getting up early.

"What do you like to eat in the morning? Let Isabel take it for you. Remember to eat more." Professor Slughorn sat next to Albert and exclaimed, "Before the end of the second round, You don’t have time to eat. Most of your time is spent on driving or looking for magic ingredients."

In fact, most of the contestants have been told similar things by their team leader.

In the next second round, the contestants may not be able to eat for a long time. If they are too hungry, they will not be able to complete the task properly.

In fact, Albert has always wanted to make complaints, why can't the competition side prepare some water and food for the players?

It is estimated that he will be the only one who will make complaints and complains like this.

However, there are not many players with appetites like Albert, and most people are very nervous. This is a normal reaction of the players participating in the competition. Not everyone has experienced the big scene like Albert.

Yes, Albert is really not nervous.

It may be that after going to school at Hogwarts, he experienced too much excitement, which made Albert a little dull.

To put it another way: I see a lot of big scenes.

That's it?

Halfway through the meal, people from the competition came and said that they were bringing a set of clothes for the contestants to use in the next competition.

Various colors, plus the school badge of the respective school.

Honestly, it's ugly.

Moreover, Albert is very resistant to wearing clothes that others have used.

Well, not only he has opinions on this, but other players are also very resistant.

"Why do we have to put on these ugly clothes?"

"This is for the fairness of the game and to prevent someone from cheating..."

Albert almost laughed out loud when he heard the first two sentences. Fortunately, he converted it into a dry cough in time to resolve the unnecessary embarrassment.

This really can't blame him, the so-called fairness has always been just a joke.

"...There is a tracking curse on the clothes, so if you are in danger, you can rush to it as soon as possible and provide help." The wizard continued, "Don't worry, these clothes are just made to order and have been raised by the family. The elf helped wash it."

Many people don't believe this. Most wizards who can come to participate in the Potions Tournament are adults and have their own ideas.

"Are you sure?" Albert asked, staring into the man's eyes.

"Of course." The wizard was a little uncomfortable.

"He didn't lie." Albert looked at Isobel.

"Just customized and washed." Isabel nodded and said.

"What the **** are you doing?" the wizard said angrily. For a moment, he felt that he was thoroughly seen through.

"See if you deceived us." Albert took his dress, went back to continue eating, and ignored the other person.

Some people set an example, others choose to believe after whispering, they are curious about what Albert has done.

The wizard seemed very anxious.

Several principals leading the team frowned. This kind of thing should be notified in advance, at least people have to measure the size of the players to be convincing.

Fortunately, the brain of the race party has not been caught by the door, otherwise, if this is really clothes worn by others, it will not explode in an instant, and then the entire potions tournament will become a laughing stock.

After everyone put on new clothes, they followed the crowded team to the west of the village. There is no doubt that the entrance to the magic garden is here.

Most of the entire village exists to hide the entrance of the magic garden, and the contestants who come to participate in the competition can guess this as long as they are not stupid.

If they are not told that the magic garden is a forest, they will think it is a magic garden when they come here.

This village actually fits people's guesses about the magical garden. It is surrounded by towering walls and is full of precious plants.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like a garden, which is very deceptive.

The contestants were taken to a common greenhouse. After passing through two doors, they found a forest in front of them.

This is the magic garden?

People looked around curiously and found that behind them was a pile of stone-cut house ruins, which seemed to be hundreds of years old.

What they had just passed through was a magic gate, a bit similar to the entrance to platform nine and three-quarters of King's Cross Station.

"Welcome everyone to the magic garden."

An elderly wizard walked in front of everyone, cleared his throat and said the rules of the second round: "You will have 10 hours to go to the magic garden to collect raw materials, and return with the raw materials found within the specified time. , And use the found ingredients to make a potion."

"You can only bring your own magic wand and the medicine box distributed to you. It is forbidden to carry or use other foreign objects to cheat. Finally, please remember:

It is forbidden to attack each other and **** other players' potions raw materials.

Destroying and stealing forests and cherished herbs are prohibited.

If you are in danger, you can launch red sparks into the sky, and the surrounding patrols will rush to help as soon as possible, but launching sparks means losing the qualification to continue the game.

If you fail to return in time and make a potion within ten hours, you will be disqualified from the competition. "

After the old wizard finished speaking, all the contestants were assigned a satchel. Opened it was a lot of grids for storing raw materials, a pair of dragon leather gloves, a silver knife, a shovel, and a pointer to the entrance of the magic garden. Pocket watch.

"The order of entering the forest, according to the first round of scoring, enters one person every five minutes. Okay, Mr. Albert Anderson, you can start, next is Mr. Guy Bernard, please do Get ready."

Albert didn't talk nonsense, put his bag on his back, picked up the magic wand, and walked directly to the magic garden not far away.

This enchanted garden did not look as gloomy as the Forbidden Forest around Hogwarts. There was a sense of magic within the range of vision, and the wizards had obviously transformed this forest.

Also, if this place has not been transformed, why are there a bunch of exotic flowers and cherished trees and fruits?

Albert walked forward slowly, not in a hurry, he was carefully recalling the potion formula in his mind. The original first goal was cosmetic medicine, but some of the raw materials of cosmetic medicine were not easy to find.

Whether it is fairy wings, morning dew, or unicorn tail hair, it is not easy to collect, not to mention the African tree snake skin. Moreover, he was a little doubtful whether he could find the rose in the magic garden, even if he did find it, the rose would not bloom in November.

Damn it!

Albert found that he hadn't realized how unreliable it is to configure cosmetics.

Fortunately, he also prepared more than one preparatory plan for himself.

Compared with cosmetic medicine, body shrinking syrup is obviously more reliable.

The daisy is a common yellow or white wild flower in Europe, and its vitality is very strong.

Ok.

In his vision, Albert found a small patch of daisies.

Albert took out the small shovel and began to dig the daisy roots.

As for the shrunken figs, although they originate from Abyssinia (Ethiopia), this plant is very strong in life and can easily survive elsewhere.

If you are lucky, you might be able to find wrinkled figs in the magic garden.

Why is luck? Because even if you find a wrinkled fig tree, you have to have wrinkled figs on it.

The remaining ingredients are even simpler, caterpillars, although not common in winter, the temperature here is actually quite high, it should not be difficult to find.

As for the mice, there is no problem. How could there be no mice on the mountain? It is more troublesome to get the spleen.

Leak juice is not a problem. Leaks are as common as mice, caterpillars and daisies.

The only problem is that the score of the shrinking potion may not be high.

If it were before coming to the Potions Championship, Albert might have struggled with this issue, but after the prophecy last night, he would not have struggled anymore.

Because there is still a third round.

Yes, there is a third round.

Therefore, the scoring through this round of competition is not as important as it should be.

The rules have been changed.

Albert thinks that 80% is a good thing done by President Bernard, and that guy really does everything in order to get his grandson to win the gold cauldron.

Because of the third round of competition, contestants can choose their own potion formula, and then the magic garden will provide materials to configure the potion, and then the difficulty and completion of the potion will be scored.

Moreover, the most important thing is that instead of winning the third round of the competition, you can win the championship, but the total points of the three competitions are used to select the champion of the final potion championship.

No wonder Hertok hated President Bernard, and he wouldn't like that guy if he replaced it.

Guy Bernard, who knew the rules for a long time, was obviously ready for this potions tournament. The change of the rules was very beneficial to him. Without Albert, Guy Bernard was at the beginning. Will open a huge gap with other players, and then continue to accumulate advantages to win the final championship.

Unfortunately, after Albert predicted the result through the crystal ball, he had no chance.

"By the way, Mr. Damocles didn't remind himself?" Albert muttered to himself. "He doesn't know, or does he think that even if the rules change, it will not affect him? Or? , He doesn't want to win by cheating?"

With the help of looking around, Albert easily found the guy over his head spying on him.

Don't think that if you use the phantom spell, you won't find it yourself.

Perhaps, the other party is an expert in the field of herbal medicine or potion, but the level in other fields is obviously not enough.

"Why don't you get rid of Guy Bernard first?"

Albert looked at the forest ahead and narrowed his eyes slightly: Look, what did he see, an Arriot.
