The Team Event Concludes
Draco was very nervous.
He regretted queuing at the very back of the crowd just to chat with Pansy a little longer.
This led to one thing.
The final step in completing the Group Potion was for each student to step forward and stir it counterclockwise for a week. The last student to do this was him.
Even more outrageous is that after he finished the operation, he couldn't leave the platform; he had to stand by the crucible and wait.
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on him and the Hawthorn Wood wand he had inserted into the crucible.
He even noticed the jealous look Ron was giving him.
But he himself is not like Ron.
They can derive pleasure from the gaze of others.
He only felt tense, and his senses were stretched out as if time were slowing down.
With a popping sound.
Draco finally pulled out his wand.
He wiped the fine Mao Mao sweat from his forehead.
What appeared before him was a large pot of purple, amber-like liquid.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
But unexpectedly, I caught a glimpse of undisguised ecstasy on Professor Polaqi's face.
"Excellent! You've all done a fantastic job!" Professor Polaqi shouted.
Draco looked at the three crucibles in the other schools.
He discovered that, in terms of color...
They are all purple in almost the same shade.
However, what he couldn't understand the most was why the professor was so happy.
His expression was as if Ron had won a thousand Galleons.
Luna, who was in the audience, was also a little confused about this.
"Black Family Dumbledore (an article in the Quibbler says that Caster Polachi is also Dumbledore).
He was adopted simply because of the relationship between the Dumbledore family and the Polachi family.
His real Black Family. Because of his dark skin. (Luna believed the article.) Why are you so happy?
"I've actually said this many times."
The so-called Alchemy and Group Potion classes are just a way to openly and freely exploit students' labor.
It doesn't even qualify as a course.
The Group Potion class was even more outrageous. Ryan glanced disdainfully at Naphnić Valkanova, who, like Caster Polachi, wore a pleased expression.
"How so?" Hermione's curiosity was piqued by Ryan's words.
"This time, we are refining the Eternal Potion."
That is, as long as you don't scoop out 3 standard-capacity Potions at once, it can keep regenerating automatically.
Clearly, Castelobruxo has provided what appears to be a large expenditure this time—the recipe and materials for crafting the Eternal Potion.
Thus, they acquired ownership of these Potions.
But actually, the most expensive are wizards.
Aside from schools, it's hard to find an organization this large that can gather so many free and high-quality workers.
Hiring workers would be a huge expense.
That's Astronomy figure.
"And these Potions can regenerate indefinitely." Hermione finally understood what Ryan meant.
Meanwhile, Professor Polaqi on the stage had regained his composure.
He took out four toads, each the size of a washbasin, and placed them in front of the crucible.
"These four are our judges for today's competition," he said, pointing to the four toads.
Then he waved his wand, and the emblems of four schools appeared on the back of them.
This time, however, all the school badges were uniformly bright yellow.
It can only be identified by its appearance.
"The Potions you all spent so much time refining."
You must all be curious about its effects.
In fact, there was a reason why you were asked to use the Lighting Charm when refining Potions materials and equipment.
Light has always been associated with dispelling darkness and curses.
Refined by such magic, all wizards yearn for the Potions that it is successfully brewed.
It also has the effect of dispelling negative influences—that is, the effect of Dark Magic.
Later, I will have Professor Riddle of Hogwarts plant a curse based on the names of these four toads.
Because they share the same name, they are subject to an equal curse.
I won't explain the specific principles.
If you'd like to learn more, you can borrow "The Book of Curses" with the permission of your school's professors.
It contains a detailed explanation.
You don't need to worry that Professor Riddle's curse will harm these little cuties.
In fact, the curse cast this time was mainly aimed at the skins of the little cuties.
It will turn their skin a bright yellow.
That is, the same color as the school badge on their backs.
At that time, each of the four toads will be doused with a teaspoon of Potions (Draco nodded in sudden realization. He understood why he had been left behind).
At that time, the completeness of the Potions can be judged by the clarity of the school badge.
The clearer the school emblem, the higher the completion rate of the Potions for that school.
"Professor Riddle, are you ready?" Polachi looked at Riddle, who was sitting on the faculty desk with his eyes closed, looking like a priest in prayer.
"I'm ready." As soon as he finished speaking, a string of black characters appeared in Riddle's pupils.
The wizards present, who were highly skilled in Dark Magic, had just sensed a trace of dark and eerie magic.
Then it disappeared again.
It felt like a dream.
"In fact, it's already over." Professor Riddle closed his eyes again.
Snape glanced at Riddle warily.
Dumbledore simply smiled.
Ryan raised an eyebrow as well.
Because only one second had passed from the time the curse was cast until it ended.
It's hard not to make those in the know wary.
The four toads turned bright yellow.
Their backs were bright yellow, and the school badges of their respective schools seemed to disappear as their colors changed.
"Truly brilliant," the fake immortal Polachi exclaimed dryly.
In fact, he had no idea how the toad in front of him was cursed.
"Alright, the four students who just stayed behind, please pick up your teaspoons."
"Then scoop a spoonful of Potions and pour it onto the back of the toad in front of you." Upon hearing this, Draco, along with the three students beside him, scooped a full spoonful of Potions from the cauldron beside him.
Carefully tilting it towards the toad in front of it.
An astonishing scene unfolded.
The purple amber-like liquid in the teaspoon turned into light after it left the teaspoon.
At this moment, the teaspoon seemed to become the body of a flashlight.
Light shone from the 'tube' onto the toad.
The bright yellow color on the toad's back is fading rapidly.
It revealed the bright yellow school badge that Professor Polaqi had just stamped.
"The results are now quite obvious."
The school crest of Castelobruxo is the clearest.
Secondly, there's Hogwarts.
Next up is Beauxbatons.
Durmstrang's is the most obscure.
Here, I will give bonus points to the four school Champion.
First place: 10 points.
Second place: 5 points.
Third place: 3 points.
Fourth place: 1 point.
The final result is:
Harry Potter – 84 + 5 = 89 points!
Viktor Krum – 64 + 1 = 65 points!
Phoebe Delacour – 92 + 3 = 95 points!
Hufflepuff -Ilvas 70 + 10 = 80 points!
These scores will be used as positive weight in the final match, the third individual match.
You can understand it as the higher the score.
The more help the Champion receive in the game, the better.
One more chapter will be posted later.
