Chapter 569 Detection Ball Early Warning
“The latest Quidditch match will be in these two weeks.” Albert looked sideways out the window, and it started to rain again!
Does he know exactly what Quidditch means?
The second attack was also the best opportunity to take action. He needed to buy himself enough time.
Unfortunately, Albert has not yet decided how to deal with the follow-up issues of Tom Riddle's diary.
Medicating in this matter means risking exposure.
Finally, you need to find someone suitable to blame, and you need to deceive Voldemort and remove yourself from this matter.
Who is more suitable?
Professor Lockhart, a Slytherin student, or Harry Potter?
Moreover, he also needs a compound potion.
There is no such thing in the potion inventory. The raw materials of the African tree snake skin fragments and bicorn horns that were brought from Snape last time are still there, but the preparation time of the compound potion is really too long.
I wonder if Hutok has stored compound potions. Is it possible to find a way to get some from him, or ask Bard for help. With the strength of the Wildsmith family, it is not difficult to help him get compound potions.
“If I have time another day, I might as well make a batch myself.”
Are you free another day?
Albert suddenly found this idea a bit funny.
Speaking of which, Nicholas has already prepared the materials for the Bafa brain-reviving agent for him, and asked him to find a way to receive this batch of raw materials. Albert himself has enough things to keep busy!
Even if it’s another day, I still won’t have time!
Not only was the basilisk in the secret room a headache for him, but there were also a lot of problems that he couldn't overcome even with the help of the time turner. Without the help of the skill panel, he would have collapsed from exhaustion.
There is no time to enjoy a moment of peace here.
Albert lazily leaned on the wooden rocking chair, watching the raindrops splashing on the glass window. The cold air outside penetrated through the glass, but he was sitting by the bonfire, and the flames were burning brightly.
A cup of steaming milk tea was placed in front of him. Isobel smiled and joked: "What are you thinking about?"
“I wonder when we can live the leisurely life that countless people dream of.” Albert reached out to take the milk tea, feeling the warmth coming from the cup, and took a pleasant sip before sighing softly.
“Sighing all the time will make people depressed!” Isobel said softly, “Work harder! Bad things will eventually pass.”
If there was no basilisk problem, I would probably be able to have a very comfortable semester!
Sure enough, Voldemort’s diary should go to hell!
When the time comes to find someone to take the blame, contact Bard first to see if you can get the compound potion from him.
It's not a good idea to keep asking Hutok for help. It's better to use less of favors.
As for Bud, that is the elder.
“Is this a gift for Nia?” Isobel looked at the semi-finished jewelry on the table.
"No." Albert took a sip and put down the cup. "This is what Kenneth Toller wanted."
“Kenneth Toller?” Isobel raised her eyebrows.
“He planned to wait until after the second attack to make money from this thing.” Albert explained.
"Is this thing really useful for the monster in the secret room?" Isobel raised her eyebrows slightly. Although she also knew that Albert had good attainments in alchemy, the target was the basilisk in the secret room. There is a danger that it can stare people or animals to death.
"It should still have some expulsion effect on ordinary dark creatures. However, it is probably useless against the thing in the secret room." Albert complained, "In Kenneth's words, it is just for peace of mind."
“That liar.”
"I also told him...well, he has the potential to be a profiteer." Albert smiled and drank the milk tea, and then began to assemble the things on the table. Obsidian and amethyst were polished into a bracelet made of beads, which was a bit Like the bargains he bought at street stalls in his previous life, in order to make this bracelet work better, Albert was very careful when making it, and he also engraved ancient magic words on each bead to make it better. form a defense system.
Finally, a banishing spell was released on it.
By the way, banishing spells are knowledge learned in the fourth grade. They can banish Muggles, objects, owls, and naturally, dark creatures.
“Do you think I should give Nia a gift?”
"Forget it, you can go pick out Christmas gifts with me then." Albert grabbed Isobel's hand, knowing what the other person was thinking, and comforted him, "In two years, I will give They took refuge in the UK and when things were over here, she grew up."
“Ahem, do you already know what the monster in the secret room is?” Suddenly, a voice sounded in the Room of Requirement.
“Oh, it’s probably some kind of dark creature.” Albert couldn’t help but sighed after seeing Katrina, and almost forgot that this guy was still here.
Ever since Isobel erased part of Katrina's memory, she has often come to the Room of Requirement to act as a light bulb for the two of them.
Katrina couldn't help curling her lips as she looked at the two intimate people. She also knew that it was not good for her to come here to disturb Isobel, but she didn't know why, she still came over.
As for the glasses, after noticing that Albert was wearing the same pair of glasses, Katrina gave them back to Isobel.
She is not an idiot, so she can certainly see something.
I have to say that Katrina, who had returned to her normal state of mind, still made Albert feel very comfortable. The two parties had returned to their previous friendship, and there was no previous embarrassment.
"I'm still researching a really effective prop, called a detection ball." Albert handed a crystal ball to Isobel, "This is inspired by the looking glass. As long as there are dark creatures nearby, it will detect The ball will sound the alarm immediately.”
Even if he already has a looking glass for reference, Albert still cannot create a detection ball in a short time. It is not considered a success until the detection ball does not appear on the skill panel.
He is considering whether to find someone to help him study together.
“Is it effective?”
"In a place like the Forbidden Forest, the detection ball is useless, but in a place like a school where there are basically no dark creatures, it is very effective." Albert added, "The one you have is a semi-finished product. It needs to be Find someone to test it in the Forbidden Forest."
Albert put the detection ball back into his pocket and planned to ask Hagrid to help test it after the thing was completed.
Isobel took out her pocket watch and looked at the time, and said to Albert: "It's almost time, I should go."
“Let’s get together!”
Albert stood up and stretched. When he left the Room of Requirement, he suddenly felt that the detection ball in his pocket was emitting amazing heat, which shocked Albert.
Because the Howling Curse was too noisy, he used the Fire Curse on the detection ball.
“What’s wrong?” Isobel looked at Albert who stretched out his hand to grab her in confusion.
“Something seems a little wrong.”
“You mean the basilisk.”
"have no idea."
After noticing the warning from the detection ball, Albert immediately pulled Isobel back to the Room of Requirement. It must be safe there. Even if Voldemort knew the location, he would not be able to do it if there was someone inside. Break in.
Even though he didn’t think that the basilisk would appear on the eighth floor, Albert felt that he should be cautious and find out what was going on first.
