Chapter 718： The murderer is myself

Chapter 718 The murderer is myself

“Honestly, I’ve never seen the contestants for the Magic School Potions Championship so united.”

Behind the bar counter, Selina looked up at the young wizards gathered together, poured a glass of mead for her old friend Slughorn, and said with emotion.

Albert has become the absolute core of the crowd, and only he can bring the contestants together, but not everyone can be as good at various languages ​​as he is, and can communicate with students from all schools without any barriers.

“I suddenly understood that Dumbledore asked Mr. Anderson to participate in the competition.”

Professor Slughorn's words were filled with gloating that could not be concealed. There are some things you can do secretly, but you cannot say them out, let alone see them in the light, or be put on the surface.

 All schools know that players in the Potions Championship have cheated in the past generations. It can be said that cheating is the tradition of the Potions Championship, but everyone will not tell it to the outside world, and they cannot say it. It is better to know it in their hearts.

 As a result, it’s better now.

This mess was directly revealed by Albert, completely exposing the dark side of the Potion Championship to the players' eyes, and completely detonating their anger.

If no one stands up, other players may choose to swallow their anger and keep all their depression and dissatisfaction in their hearts. After all, there are only a few people who dare to challenge authority.

Albert's approach caught the other party off guard. Even President Bernard did not expect that things would turn out like this.

 Because some people stood up to express their dissatisfaction, others naturally did not intend to endure it, especially after knowing that the winner of this competition had been appointed by President Bernard to his grandson.

 Made them even more intolerable.

They are all the best of their age, how can anyone not be a little arrogant?

Who wants to be played like a monkey by others?

 The competition side is even worse!

 Since you have all booked the championship, then everyone is still in competition, so you might as well just go back and forget it.

 The number of students who can participate in the Magic School Potions Championship has something to do with it. There are not many real geniuses, and potions require not only talent, but also sufficient training.

 Now that they have a common enemy, the players are more united than expected.

 We can all become friends.

 No one is a fool nowadays.

They are all players in the same class. When they enter the field of potions in the future, other players will be their connections.

 After all, everyone is scattered around the world, and there is no conflict of interest.

 The contestants were drinking while cursing the organizers and referees of the Potion Championship. Bernard's grandson became the object of disgust and contempt among the contestants.

Two Beauxbatons students even started picking up gossip about their own players.

It’s a good thing that Guy Bernard secretly followed President Bernard out of the Magic Garden after the second round of the competition, otherwise he would have been so angry that he would have been raised to heaven.

 As for the black guy from Wagadu who attacked others in the second round, he has been accepted by everyone again. The guy immediately apologized to Albert and Valeria after the game, and his attitude was very sincere.

Albert once asked him why he attacked the patrol member. The black boy said that he didn't want to be eliminated. There would be no problem if he erased the other person's memory, but he didn't expect that he would fall into his hands in the end.

Albert didn't pay much attention to the other party. He attacked him secretly, but he let him take the blame. In the end, he won. There was nothing to complain about. In fact, speaking of this, he might have to thank him.

However, Valeria has always been brooding about her elimination and has not forgiven the other party.

The black guy is not angry either. He has no hope of being forgiven by the other party, but it is still necessary to correct his attitude and make his position clear.

It was because he did not want to be blamed for assaulting Guy Bernard and stuffing Ariote leaves into his mouth.

 If you haven’t done it, you haven’t done it. You can’t blame it on him.

He really doesn’t take the blame.

 Who attacked Guy Bernard has become an unsolved mystery.

  The range of attackers is not large, they must be among the other seven contestants, or the eight patrol members.

　　The wands of all the contestants have been thoroughly inspected, and they believe that they may have been secretly made by a patrol member who disliked President Bernard.

 Finally, at Albert’s suggestion, everyone raised their glasses to the unknown hero.

 Isobel had already guessed who did it.

What a patrol member is, it’s just nonsense. Adults rarely do such irrational things in a fit of enthusiasm.

No matter how you look at it, Isobel feels that this is very much like Albert’s style.

 Secret, neat, leaving no tail, and no one knows who did it.

More importantly, the Wagadu Magic School player didn’t lie.

Everyone thinks that except for the contestants from Wagadu Magic School, it is difficult to find contestants who know how to use wandless magic.

 This is a loophole.

Albert is undoubtedly the most suspicious. Although Isobel is not sure whether he can cast spells without a wand, she feels that with Albert's ability, it is not difficult to achieve this level. No one knows his limit. Where.

Only Albert, who likes to tell the truth as lies, can tell the truth with his eyes open and deceive everyone.

“How does it feel to be the center of everyone?” After Isobel closed the door, she looked at Albert hugging herself with a smile.

“I don’t really like the crowd, and I don’t like being the center of attention, but it’s better to get them all on board than to be alone.”

Albert did not deny it, and was not surprised that Isobel guessed that he did it.

 Isobel knew Albert very well. When she heard that he was sneak attacked by a player from Wagadu, she had already begun to doubt the 80% success rate.

 “You are such a bad guy.”

 “There’s nothing wrong with being the bad guy.”

Albert naturally didn’t confront Bernard’s grandson out of interest or because he couldn’t stand the shady story. He was not that boring.

 To put it bluntly, it is still a question of interests.

Albert is bound to win the Potion Championship, but Bernard's grandson is blocking his way.

 It is natural to kick away the stone that is blocking it.

However, after Albert played a dirty trick on Bernard, he found that there was an additional task on the task panel to "uncover the secrets of the Potion Championship", and the reward was extremely rich. Naturally, Albert would not let go of this incidental good thing easily. After that, he completed the task by the way, directly lifting the fig leaf of the Potion Championship.

 Other players will definitely not be able to bear it.

 As I said before, geniuses are somewhat arrogant.

Now that someone is rushing to the front, the people behind will naturally have no worries at all, not to mention that they have been tricked by the other party. In this case, if you can hold back, you will not be called a young man.

 The so-called judging panel, after losing that awe-inspiring aura of authority, is just like that.

“The only thing left is the third round the day after tomorrow. Have you already known the details of the third round?” Isobel felt that this was very possible.

“Well, the content is to brew a magic potion, and the raw materials are provided by the competition.”

 “There’s always something wrong,” Isobel said.

 “This round of competition pays more attention to innovation.”

“That’s why that guy was kicked out?”

“His advantage is so great that he probably started preparing for it during the summer vacation.”

Although Albert was very confident in himself, considering that the judges might squeeze the points, he simply eliminated his biggest competitor.

 “What potion are you going to brew?”

 “Baffy’s Brain Refresher.” Albert said without thinking.

 “Took the risk.”

Isobel naturally understood what Baffy's Brain Refreshing Potion was, and she also knew how difficult it was to brew this potion. It was not inferior to Felicity Potion. There should be no mistakes in the brewing process, otherwise the pot of precious potion would become Into a pile of poison.

 “I will not fail.” Albert said confidently, and he planned to use Hutok’s improved Baffy awakening agent.

As he said, the third round actually focused more on the innovation of potions rather than brewing potions.

 Albert had a lot of input into the improvement plan of Baffy Brain Refresher.

 The danger of the improved Baffy Brain Refresher will be greatly reduced. He believes that high difficulty + innovation will be enough to make all referees shut up.

Of course, this is also the carrot he dangled in front of the donkey.
