Chapter 209 Want to grow up quickly
Albert and the others had just returned to the common room when they heard other students talking about this year's Halloween performance. The famous Hogwarts choir will present a newly rehearsed chorus for the teachers and students of the school on Halloween night.
Hogwarts Choir?
Albert recalled the chorus of last year's admission, the group of people were holding big toads in their hands, it looked really "interesting".
In the common room, Albert sat in an armchair doing his homework. After a long time, he stood up and moved his body, casually took out a thick book from his schoolbag, sat back on the armchair, and read it without haste
, by the way, take the opportunity to check the panel tasks that appeared not long ago.
A dead person.
You accidentally discovered Peter Pettigrew, who was supposed to die, but now appears in Hogwarts, which seems to involve a big secret. How can you give up the opportunity to discover this secret with your curiosity? Find out why Peter Pettigrew is playing dead.
Reward: 2000 experience, 1 skill point.
"This task is not difficult to complete." Albert remembered that Peter Pettigrew played dead because he was the secret keeper of the Potters, but in the end he turned to Voldemort, resulting in the killing of the Potters who were protected by the Fidelity Curse. Blame it on Sirius Black, who was arrested and imprisoned in Azkaban for more than ten years.
If you don't remember part of the plot, this task is probably really difficult to do.
Albert felt in his heart, and his eyes fell on another task.
Get to know Mandrake for the first time.
You already have a preliminary understanding of the Mandrake, but the uses of this magic plant are far beyond your imagination. Get a Mandrake and study it further.
Reward: Basic knowledge of Mandrakes.
When Albert saw this mission reward, he was a little dumbfounded. He didn't expect such a wonderful mission reward.
Mandrake basic knowledge?
Common sense?
That is, knowledge about mandrakes?
But where do you get the Mandrake? Is it possible to steal a pot from the greenhouse?
To be honest, Albert didn’t want to do this if he could, and the mandrakes stolen from the greenhouse hadn’t matured yet.
Could it be possible to get a pot of mature Mandrake from the black market?
Albert remembered that there was a guy in the Order of the Phoenix who did this kind of thing, but he couldn't remember the guy's name anymore.
Moreover, Albert also discovered a big problem, how did he get what he wanted from the black market!
At Albert's current age, it is really not suitable to appear in front of black market dealers.
Could it be possible, find someone to buy it for you?
Hagrid?
Albert immediately shook his head and denied the idea, Hagrid probably wouldn't help him in this matter.
Albert himself is not good at touching these things, otherwise he will completely expose himself.
Before, why didn't he notice this big problem?
No, it should be said that Albert has already realized this problem, but he himself thinks that he can solve the task problem, but how to solve the problem of age... compound medicine?
I'm afraid not.
Use the Imperius Curse to control one person to help with the transaction?
No, the Imperius Curse itself is illegal, and it is even more troublesome to be found out.
Or... write to Hattok Dagworth, seeking the help of the potions expert?
I'm afraid it won't work, and Dagworth won't help.
"Age is indeed the biggest problem!" Albert thought distressedly.
It's been going smoothly all the time, so I took it for granted in the end!
It may be difficult to get untreated mandrakes in pharmacies!
Well, by the way, there is Felicia!
Albert was not sure whether taking a sip of Felicia Elixir would help him solve this big problem.
"well!"
Sighed deeply, Albert returned to the dormitory, found the letter from Dagworth from the box containing the letter, read it, took out the quill and began to write a reply to the other party.
After possessing potion proficiency skills, Albert was occasionally able to express amazing words in correspondence with Hetok Dagworth, and the two sides had a good chat about improving potions.
At the end of the parchment, Albert wrote about the mandrake in the herbal medicine class and asked if the other party could help him.
After writing the letter and stuffing the parchment into the envelope, Albert took a deep breath. He didn't actually expect Dagworth to really help.
"Albert." Fred suddenly raised his head and said, "Have you finished writing that Grindylow paper in Defense Against the Dark Arts class?"
"Oh, let me see where I put it." Albert opened his schoolbag, picked up "Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Defense" and flipped through it, only to find that there was no paper on Grindylow.
"What's the matter?" Fred asked with a strange expression, "Haven't you written it yet?"
"Probably... right!" Albert took out his notebook and glanced at it. Sure enough, Grindylow's paper was not ticked.
"You sometimes forget to do your homework." Lee Jordan couldn't help teasing, "Why don't you borrow my copy?"
"Have you borrowed any books about Grindylow?" Albert asked with a frown, planning to finish writing this paper tonight, although this paper is...?
"Hey, that's not right! Isn't this the homework assigned in Defense Against the Dark Arts class today?" Albert suddenly came back to his senses, turned his head and glared at the three of Fred, knowing that he was just given by these guys. played.
"Don't be angry, we see that you have been thinking about the problem, and Fred said that you probably would..." George tried not to let himself laugh out loud.
"Nonsense, when did I say that." Fred immediately shirked responsibility.
Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes at the three of them, ignoring the three funny comparisons, he glanced at his pocket watch, packed his things and prepared to go back to the dormitory to rest.
"Don't be angry, it's just a joke." Lee Jordan said quickly.
After returning to the dormitory, after Albert confirmed that no one was eavesdropping nearby through the Marauder's Map, he sorted out the affairs of Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black and James Potter. It's done by yourself, it's easier than drinking water.
1 skill point is credited.
Reveal the secret.
You found out about Peter Pettigrew's crimes, make it public and let everyone know what kind of person he is.
Reward: 5000 experience.
"It seems that this is a continuous mission." Albert muttered. He remembered that the rewards of the last continuous mission were very rich.
However, this should be completed in a few years. As for doing it now, it is too early. If the follow-up tasks are gone, it will be cheating.
As for Blake's grievances, it's none of my business.
Being imprisoned in Azkaban, more than half of the blame is Black's own problems.
At that time, Black did not deny the incident, leading to the Ministry of Magic's conviction without a trial, and throwing him into Azkaban. Who is to blame!
