Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 804: whose pot

  Chapter 804 Who is to blame

  The potion written test on Monday was simpler than Albert expected. Most of the questions in the test paper were for candidates to describe certain potion raw materials or certain potions.

  Example: Describe the properties of moonstone and its use in medicine.

  The afternoon potions practice exam was even easier, because their dear Professor Snape wasn't wandering the exam room, and no one was watching them brew potions like a ghost. No one will deliberately create psychological pressure on them.

   Most of the students brewed potions more easily than usual, and even Fred and George no longer looked like they were facing enemies.

  Albert dared to say that after the potions exam, many students would think that most of the reasons for their unsatisfactory potions results were due to Snape.

When the invigilator, Professor March class, said: "Please leave your cauldron, the exam is over", Albert quickly glanced at the label on the bottle stopper containing the vitality tonic, and left with the other students examination room.

   "It should be no problem to pass the exam this time." Fred excitedly announced the good news to his three roommates. Both he and George have specially practiced the brewing of vitality tonics, so the practical test in the afternoon did not cause them much trouble. If the score in the written test in the morning was better, they might have a chance to get a "good".

   "Thanks to Albert."

  George suspected that Albert was quietly helping them pass the o.w.ls potion test, otherwise, given his and Fred's potion level, it would still be a bit difficult to pass the potion test.

  He still has this self-knowledge.

   "Finally free!" Lee Jordan stretched lazily, and suggested with a smile, "Go back and have a drink, let's celebrate in advance."

   "There are still four exams left!" Angelina raised her eyebrows.

   "Forget about divination, history of magic, astronomy and protection of magical creatures, who really cares about those things?" Lee Jordan didn't care about the remaining exams, and he also expressed the aspirations of many candidates.

  Divination class is completely **** in the eyes of many students. Perhaps there are a few students who like divination, but the only student who can really do divination is Albert. So what if he gets excellent in the o.w.ls exam?

  The history of magic is hated by almost all the students. This has something to do with their history of magic professor Cuthbert Binns. The ghost professor's class is always drowsy.

   So far, in the past hundred years in the British magic circle, there has been a relatively famous historian, Bathilda Bagshot, who is also the author of "A History of Magic".

Astronomy is a relatively important course, and it has been there since the first grade, but in everyone's mind, this course is no different, because it has no sense of existence, and I don't know what is the use of learning, so it is not accepted by the students at all. Really valued.

  Since Hagrid took over the protection of magical creatures, this class has not been very popular with everyone. Many people are doubting whether they can learn useful knowledge from the protection of magical creatures class, and it is very dangerous to deal with that group of magical animals. Professor Kettlebo is the best example.

   "Professors' improvement class requirements need to be at least good. You can't just take one or two improvement classes and start messing around in the next semester." Shanna reminded, "Be careful that Professor McGonagall will directly let you repeat the grade and retake the exam."

   "No." Fred shrugged. "Actually, I think it is enough to take two or three courses in the sixth and seventh grades, so that we have enough time to prepare for graduation."

Fred and George didn't take this very seriously. They are not in a hurry to quit school and open a shop now. They plan to follow Albert's proposal to first make the magic joke shop famous in school, and learn from Albert by the way, accumulating and making more fun. props.

  They have seen Albert's so-called "semi-finished products", and most of the boxes are good things.

   As long as it is slightly improved, it will definitely sell well.

  Of course, everyone is more concerned about tomorrow's practical exam on the protection of magical creatures, and no one really cares about the nonsense of Fred and the others.

  The next day's practical test on protecting magical creatures was held on the grass at the edge of the Forbidden Forest. Three tents had already been set up there. Everyone was told to keep silent while waiting, and to enter the tents in order to take the practical test on protecting magical creatures.

Albert was naturally the first group of students to take part in the practical exam. When he opened the tent curtain and walked in, he saw that the tent was divided into three areas. Professor March was sitting behind a long table in the middle of the tent. , pointed to a nest of hedgehogs on the ground on the right side and said: "There is a hedgehog among the group of hedgehogs, you need to accurately identify which one is the hedgehog."

Albert glanced at the pile of sundries next to him. They were all things that might be useful. He quickly found milk from a bottle, conjured a milk bottle out of thin air, and put dragon leather gloves on himself. After that, start feeding the hedgehogs.

   Albert soon found that one of the hedgehogs had all its quills standing up.

   "It's just a stinger." Albert said to Professor Marchban.

  The thorn is a very suspicious animal. When they think that someone is trying to poison them, the magical thorns on their bodies will stand up.

   "Very good." After Professor Marchban made the bottle disappear, he pointed to the tree in the tent and continued to describe to Albert the exam questions he needed to complete.

   "There are some Bowtruckles out there, and you need to show me how to properly touch a Bowtruckle, and you also need to bring me a leaf from the tree."

  Albert walked to the tree, looked at the nervous Bowtruckle on the tree, and recalled this biological information in his mind:

  If you want to remove leaves or wood from the tree guarded by the Bowtruckle, you need to give them some woodjack or fairy eggs in exchange.

   When Albert was looking for milk just now, he noticed that there was a ground turtle on the table. He quickly took some ground turtles from the table, first gave some to the Bowtruckles on the tree to lower their vigilance, then pointed to the leaves on the tree, and shook the wood turtles again, indicating that he wanted to Replace a leaf with a wood turtle.

  Actually, the protection of magical creatures class not only tests everyone's understanding of basic theories, but also tests their patience and love for magical creatures.

  If you are not patient enough to get along with this group of little guys, you may end up **** things up.

   "Very good." Professor Marchban looked at the leaf in his hand, pointed to the circled position and said, "You still need to show me how to feed and clean the fire crab."

  The so-called fire crab is actually a magical creature that looks like a turtle with jewels of different colors on its shell.

  Fire Crabs are very valuable, and their dead shells can be made into high-quality crucibles. Of course, most wizards have no patience to wait for them to die, so they are directly killed, so they are protected by the Ministry of Magic, and there is a special protected area by the beach. In addition, fire crabs can also be sold to other wizards as pets , but Albert suspected that ordinary wizards would not buy this thing at all.

  Albert thinks that this thing should be called a fire tortoise. I'm afraid it's called a fire crab because its feet are like crabs, and it can only walk sideways. When this creature thinks that it is under attack, its tail will breathe fire, and it is easy to be burned if it is not careful.

   This is also the place where you should be most vigilant when feeding and cleaning fire crabs.

However, as long as you don't deliberately stimulate the fire crab, you don't have to worry about getting burned. As for cleaning up, just give it a full-body binding spell, you can easily restrain it, and then complete the attack on the fire crab without any danger. clean.

   As for what will happen after the fire crab is freed from the spell, it doesn't matter what happens to him. Maybe they have other fire crabs prepared.

   After leaving the tent, Albert ran to the hunting lodge to chat with Hagrid, and observe the situation of other candidates by the way.

   Sure enough, many students suffered from burns. Fire crabs are not easy to mess with, and Hagrid basically didn't teach them any useful knowledge this semester, so it's normal for them to get a little dirty with fire crabs.

   "How did you do?" Hagrid asked in a low voice, sounding a little guilty.

"It's okay, but the fire crabs haven't been dealt with. I think many students will complain that you haven't taught how to feed and clean the fire crabs." Albert was a little helpless. Crap.

  Hagrid suddenly looked a little embarrassed, because he really didn't tell them much useful knowledge this semester.

  Fred and George have also come out. Both of them looked a little embarrassed. Fred's hair was partially burnt, while George's clothes were burnt, and there were burn marks on his hand quilt.

   "What the hell, why would anyone want to keep such a dangerous pet?" Lee Jordan appeared cursing, not only with burns on his body, but also scratches on his hands from the Bowtruckle.

   "Go to the school hospital and let Madam Pomfrey handle it for you. I guess many people will go back." Albert suggested.

   "Why are you innocent at all." Fred complained angrily. Among the candidates who entered the tent exam, Albert was the only one who had nothing to do.

   "Who knows."

  As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the school hospital, they heard Madam Pomfrey's complaints. The unlucky students who were burned were all covered with orange ointment.

   "I really don't know how Charlie deals with fire dragons." George suddenly admired Charlie's choice.
