Hogwarts: Please Graduate Soon

Chapter 190 The Competition Scene Where Demons Dance Wildly

Fleur and Cassandra were also confused by Wayne's wild ideas.

"Is there any connection between the clothes you wear and magic?" Fleur asked inexplicably, thinking that Wayne could have some unique understanding.

"It will be more pleasing to the eye." Wayne shrugged: "It's just an intuition, you don't need to pay attention to it."

Hibiscus:

Except for Sakura, the two girls quickly forgot about this episode. As the host, Fleur took the three of them to browse the nearby scenery, mainly to introduce it to Sakura.

Wayne and Cassandra had been to many places, and there was no difference if they listened to it again, so Wayne borrowed Sakura's wind card to study it.

Cassandra also came over curiously.

The card surface is very delicate. If you touch it with your palm, you can feel the delicate layering.

"Gem sand, gold, mithril, cherry blossom wood..."

Wayne analyzed the materials one by one, and even Sakura, who was listening to Fu Rong's introduction, froze.

Are you saying everything right?

"Huh?" Wayne exclaimed, "What is this special potion?"

A strange force blocked his vision.

Just as Wayne was about to take it closer to see if he could smell some potion ingredients, Sakura had already jumped over, snatched the card away, and hid behind Fleur like a frightened deer.

"You, stop analyzing." Sakura looked at Wayne in fear: "This is our family's secret spell, and you have almost seen it all."

Sakura's cute and cute appearance inspired Fleur's protective desire, and the mixed-blood Veela said angrily: "Wayne, don't bully Xiaolou.

"Sorry." Wayne scratched his head in embarrassment: "It's an occupational disease. I got an alchemy tool I haven't seen before, just like to study it."

"It's okay." Although Sakura said so, she still carefully put the wind card away.

He followed Furong the whole time, as if she was the only one who could give him a sense of security.

But in the next few days, Sakura still played with Wayne and the others obediently.

She was not familiar with the place here, and she had no friendship with the two students from the same school.

At least there are girls around Wayne all the time, so she won't be too embarrassed.

And whether it's potions or alchemy, Vern is so powerful that he can get answers to Sakura's questions.

She already regretted not bringing over the cards that had not yet been made.

Learning and practicing at the same time is the most efficient way

Although Wayne is having such an easy time here, being surrounded by three beauties every day, the other contestants are having a hard time.

Not only do they have to attend classes every day, but they are also taken away by professors from their respective schools for tutoring at night.

Henderson and Russell were almost soaked by the potion. It was worse than in school, and both of them were on the verge of tears.

Obviously I'm here to make soy sauce and learn a lot.

As long as Wayne is here, they can't win the championship even if they learn sudden death!

But Snape didn't think so. If he didn't have a request, he would even bring Wayne here alone.

But now that Russell and Henderson are here, he can't lose his face. If their final scores are too low, how can he hold his head high in front of other professors.

So in the past few days, Snape had used his attitude and critical eyes towards Harry, making the two of them worse off than dead.

Looking at Wayne leisurely and carefree, surrounded by beautiful girls all day long, he almost burst into tears.

Finally, four days passed and it was time for the proposition potion competition.

There have been some changes in the Beauxbatons auditorium. The long table disappeared, leaving only chairs, and three rows of cauldrons placed under the high platform.

All students will come to watch the competition, and specially invited members of the Pharmacists Association also came to the school.

"Wayne?"

In the lounge, Wayne, who was talking to Sakura about the impact of the smoothness of magic lines on magic power output, suddenly heard someone calling him and subconsciously turned around.

"Mr. Damocles?" Wayne was a little surprised. The potion master who invented wolfsbane potion had already walked over. Tian Fen said in surprise:

"Why are you here? Are you also here to be a judge?"

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier that we could come from England together?"

"Uh, Mr. Damocles." Wayne blinked: "I'm not here to be a judge, I'm a contestant at Hogwarts.

"What?" The old man was shocked and his goatee trembled: "You said you are a contestant?"

"yes."

"You...you..." Damocles' expression was extremely exciting. He thought for a long time before saying: "Isn't this bullying?"

"It's more than enough for you to be a judge. If you participate in the competition...will there be any suspense about the result?"

Sakura hid behind and quietly nodded in agreement.

Wayne's lectures are better than those of the teachers in the school, so participating in the competition is just bullying.

However, Sakura is not a person who cares about ranking, as long as she can gain something.

"Mr. Damocles, I'm only in my second year this year." Wayne seemed innocent: "There shouldn't be any violation in participating in such a competition, right?"

"You..." Damocles opened his mouth, but in the end he could only say helplessly: "Fortunately, the first session after the restart is just to test the water, and it doesn't matter who the champion is."

"But I will report it to the organizing committee and you will not participate in the next competition."

The Potion Exchange Competition is held every three years, and Wayne will be in fifth grade three years later.

"Even if you don't tell me, I won't participate," Wayne said.

You can let Hermione participate next time. The little witch will definitely be very interested in such a competition similar to the Mathematical Olympiad.

The lounge was pushed to the other two judges who also arrived.

Damocles pulled Wayne in front of the two of them: "Come, let me introduce to you, this is Wayne Lawrence...

Both judges are members of the Association of Extraordinary Pharmacists and have read Wayne's articles. There is no obstacle to communication between the two parties, and there is no gap in status.

The students in the lounge looked at him and the three judges in complete confusion.

If you don’t know, you might think that there are four judges today. How can we do this?

Cassandra bit her lip and watched the young man being surrounded by three old men, talking without any fear.

She completely realized how ridiculous her inexplicable arrogance was.

While she was still competing with her peers, a true genius like Wayne no longer belonged to this level at all.

Ten minutes later, Mrs. Maxim also came to inform the players to go to the auditorium.

At this time, the auditorium was full of people. The contestants walked to the crucible. With a wave of Maxim's hand, the same amount of material appeared next to everyone's crucible. She announced:

"The magic potion that needs to be brewed today is the elixir of joy. The ingredients around you are all in double portions. You cannot receive additional ones after they are used up."

"The time limit is three hours. If you fail to complete it after the time limit, it will be considered a failure. Let's start now!"

As Maxim finished speaking, the players began their preparations.

The Happy Drinking Potion is one of the difficult potions within the scope of the NEWTs exam. Its function is to bring people a happy and joyful mood.

The reason why I chose this potion is because the quality of the joy potion is very obvious.

The elation potion that is just barely completed will put the user into a depressed state after the drug effect ends. The better the drug effect, the shorter the side effects will be, making it easier for the judges to score.

Wayne finished handling the Narcissus Pavilion in an orderly manner, and then soaked the mint in the water.

Only peppermint that has been soaked for more than two hours can be added to the elixir of joy, so almost every student puts two portions of peppermint together in case of emergency.

Only Wayne was brave enough to handle all the materials in one copy, which made Snape's teeth hurt.

Snape knew that Wayne's level was very high, but even the best people would sometimes fail.

He would also often burn out the crucible. Wayne was so confident that if he made a mistake, it would be a real joke.

The students watching the competition were also whispering that although the process of brewing the potion was boring, it was fun to watch the contestants sweat profusely from nervousness.

In the first half of the process, the materials are processed in much the same way and in the same order.

But when it comes to brewing the potion, the species diversity of wizards comes to the fore.

The three men in black stockings in front of Wayne suddenly stood up and sang and danced around their cauldron, startling the other students.

"What are you doing?" Russell looked at the three dancing guys like a fool.

"It should be some kind of ritual, right?" Wayne poured the armadillo bile into the boiling crucible, raised his head, and felt like he was walking into a zoo.

"Wagadu's magic is different from our system. There are too many strange customs."

Henderson said thoughtfully: "When I chatted with them two days ago, they also said that to go to school, they need to ride a cheetah and rush to school from their respective tribes."

"No train?" Russell looked at him in surprise.

"No question." Henderson shook his head: "Okay, stop looking and get on with your work.

After saying that, he continued to lower his head and start working, but the voices of the three Wagadu students kept reaching his ears like magic sounds.

Henderson had to add an ear plug to listen to himself.

At the guest of honor, Wagadu's Potions Professor proudly introduced himself to other school professors.

"This is Wagadu's dance to worship the moon. It can absorb the essence of the moon and blend it into the potion to improve the potion!

"But it's daytime now..." Padilla looked at the time. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. Where was the moonlight?

Professor Wagadu's expression was stagnant, but he had a dark face and no one else could see it.

"It doesn't matter, you just need to know that it's great."

Several professors were speechless and choked. They didn't know whether it could improve the quality of the potion, but it would definitely interfere with other players, which was considered very powerful.

Now there are several people who don't even look at their own crucibles, but just stare at the three dancing people, watching the excitement like the audience.

"Ula!"

The three men from Kosdoris suddenly went crazy and roared, startling both Sakura and Cassandra who were not far away.

Three sturdy Kostorius students all took out a bottle of... vodka from their robes.

"Ula!" They opened the bottle cap and poured the vodka into the crucible. Splashes of alcohol fell on the oven, and flames shot up into the sky. Lao Gao from the tenth room.

"You need to add wine when making medicine?" Rafzi was stunned.

"Of course!" Kosdoris' leading professor patted his chest proudly: "How can a man live without vodka? The more vodka you put in the potion, the more potent it will be. Drinking it will make you drunk!"

Everyone: "..."

The entire competition scene was like a chaotic dance, with Wagadu's students doing a great dance, and Kostoris's students doing a drunken act.

That's right, after they poured a bottle into the crucible, they took another bottle out of their arms and poured it into their mouths.

In this regard, the explanation given by the professor led by Kosdoris was that alcohol would help improve their efficiency. The professors and judges were skeptical about this.

Inside the auditorium

As the smoke filled the air, Madame Maxime looked at her pocket watch. When the last minute ran out, she immediately shouted:

"All players please leave the operating table and do not touch your crucible!"

The two students who were still close to the exam were full of anxiety. They still had the last materials to put down, but they did not dare to make any move under Maxim's stern eyes.

Wayne followed the contestants to a seat aside to wait for the scores to be announced, while Damocles and the other two judges looked at the crucibles one by one and found nothing coming out of each crucible.

"Why are you nervous?" Wayne asked speechlessly as he saw Sakura almost touching her robe into a ball.

"Your potion completion is quite good."

"I, I don't know, I'm just very nervous." Sakura couldn't tell, but instead of letting go, she held on tighter.

Cassandra is unusually calm, and she is very confident in her own strength.

Soon, except for the two unlucky guys who didn't finish the game, most of the other players' scores came out.

It’s just that the professors couldn’t understand the potions refined by Kosdoris and Wagadu students at all.

The finished product of the Delight Agent should be a beautiful, transparent golden liquid with clear water droplets.

But the students from these two schools used a special cooking method. Wagadu's potion was dark brown and turned into a paste.

Kostoris's potion turned milky white, looking like a pot of thick soup.

After discussing for a while, the three of them found Maxim: "Let's find a few students to try, it's hard for us to judge.

"Okay." Maxim did not refuse, and soon found six students who volunteered to serve as guinea pigs.

The first is Vagadu’s potion. The three students who voluntarily signed up are all black, which is very consistent with France’s national conditions. In recent years, mixed-race people like them have become more and more compatible with black students.

Wayne estimates that by the next century, Beauxbatons will have no problem claiming to be a pure Black State magic school.

After the three drank the potion, their smiles soon broke out, and the judges gave them a score based on their performance.

Then it was the turn of Kosdoris' potion.

The three students poured the milky white liquid into their mouths, their expressions immediately became extremely ferocious, they coughed violently, and tears came out.

It startled everyone around me.

"What's going on?" Damocles quickly took out the antidote and wanted to drink it for the three of them, but was blocked by Cosdoris' professor.

"It's not a big problem. People who are not used to drinking vodka behave like this. Don't you think the effects of the medicine have already taken effect?"

Damocleli looked at the three of them, their faces turned red, they were coughing and giggling.

Another one couldn't even stand still, lying on the ground and falling asleep with a smile on his face.

The judges were stunned.

How to calculate this?
