Hogwarts: Please Graduate Soon

Chapter 84: Talent Jumps, Penello Joins The Team, Potion Exchange Competition

When Hermione knew that Wayne was going to see Newt, she gave him the copy of "Where the Gods Start" that she bought. Please be sure to get Newt's signature.

Of course Wayne wouldn't refuse such a small thing.

During this period of time, Wayne and Newt's connection has not been broken.

Basically keep the rhythm of one letter a week.

The two talked mostly about magical animals, and Wayne asked a lot of questions about raising phoenixes and unicorns.

Newt was also very interested. It was rare for a man to raise a unicorn, and he didn't even have one in his box.

As time goes by, the old man and the young man seem to have become close friends.

Here I have to complain about the speed of communication in the wizarding world. For cross-ocean communications like Wayne and Newt, he must first send the letter to the London Post Office, and then send it to the United States, where it will be distributed.

Due to the high cost, it basically takes three to five days from London to send the accumulated letters and packages to the United States, which is extremely inefficient.

There are also alchemy tools for instant messaging in the magic world, but Wayne has never come into contact with them.

He has not read the relevant knowledge, so he can only see if he can make a few in the future.

In the room where the request is answered, the young man closes his eyes and rests.

It looks like he is asleep, but he is actually practicing meditation.

After a period of study, Wayne increasingly discovered that meditation is very effective.

His spirit has become sharper, leading to a steady improvement in dynamic perception, and his thinking has become more agile, making it easy to enter a state of concentration.

Whether you are learning magic, or delving into alchemy and potions, you can improve your learning efficiency.

It's like turning on a full accelerator.

According to the requirements of the secret method, at this moment, Wayne's mind was completely empty and he entered an ethereal state. His mind seemed to be separated from his body. Suddenly, a cool feeling spread throughout his body and merged into one.

Wayne felt more energetic and his thoughts were clearer.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and two rays of light bloomed from his pupils.

"Finally promoted to a high level." The young man smacked his lips.

The golden skills rewarded by the system are indeed difficult to practice. It took such a long time for the proficiency of dynamic perception and meditation to reach a high level.

I don’t know how long it will take to reach the master level.

But the results are obvious. Due to the upgrade of meditation, his talent has also changed somewhat.

[Host: Wayne Lawrence

Magic power: SS+ (current magic power is 1.9)

Charm:SS

Defense against Dark Arts (White Magic): SSS

Black Magic:S+

Transfiguration: SS

Potion: SS

Alchemy:SS

Endowments: Memory Palace, Innate Holy Spirit, Wandless Spellcasting, Lord Thunder Lord's Decree, Divine Animal Affinity, Elemental Affinity, Master Inspiration, Mana Flow Thread.

[Comprehensive evaluation: SS+, legend, one step away from you. 】

The improvement of meditation has led to a jump in the transformation talent, becoming ss-, and the minus sign of the magic talent has also been removed.

Even the black magic talent has been upgraded by a small level.

The only pity is that in the eyes of the system, his comprehensive evaluation still does not reach the SSS level.

This is too difficult.

Wayne shook his head helplessly. He could not imagine what kind of monsters those who truly reached the SSS level in the system score were.

In terms of points, apart from the five thousand points he got from his Slytherin friends, he hasn't done much trouble recently.

In other words, Snape points are deducted and daily points are provided for night tours every night, but I haven't saved up to 100 draws yet.

Doing it every day will only annoy the professors and Dumbledore, and the other little badgers will also have no peace. .

So he planned to hibernate for a while.

As for earning points and rewards for major events, let’s wait until next semester.

Improving strength is important, but Wayne also doesn't want to make himself hated by humans and dogs.

Not counting when he was in elementary school, all naughty kids at that age had such virtues, and it didn't make any difference whether he got into trouble or not.

He used to be a child, but now he is a teenager.

We are mature!

After standing up and stretching, Wayne walked out of the Room of Requirement.

He hadn't slept for another night, and he hadn't drank the uplifting potion yet, but he was still in good spirits.

With meditation, two or three hours of sleep a day is enough.

This magic is definitely a must-have artifact for the King of Volumes. Wayne came up with a simplified version of the meditation technique and prepared it as a Christmas gift for Hermione and Qiu.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to give away the original version, but he was afraid that if they got the full version, they wouldn't even be able to get started, thus wasting their time.

Um?

Wayne, who was walking downstairs, suddenly stopped and his expression became a little subtle.

At the edge of the stairs, the blond senior with big waves was looking at him with a smile.

"Good morning, senior."

Wayne stepped forward and said hello, but he was cursing in his heart.

Is there something passive about Penello? Why does he always run into her every time he comes out from the Room of Requirement after staying up all night?

"Where have you been?" Penello looked at the boy playfully.

"I woke up too early in the morning and was bored wandering around." Wayne laughed. His relationship with Penello was not close enough to be able to talk about the Room of Requirement.

This senior is also a smart person. She was just teasing Wayne just now without really intending to delve deeper. (adbf) Since we met, we simply left together.

On the way to the auditorium, Penelo mentioned what Wayne said last time.

"What do you think, senior sister?"

Putting her blond hair behind her ears, Penello whispered:

"Although the business of the Selia store is doing well, the products are still too single."

"Many students actually don't spend too much pocket money on homework and maps, especially maps. One or two in a dormitory is enough.

Wayne nodded, indicating for him to continue.

He is also aware of these problems. Anyway, his business has deteriorated a lot in the past month.

It doesn't matter if it's money or not, the main thing is points.

Penello continued: "With your level, it shouldn't be a problem to imitate the products of Zuko's Joke Shop, just choose a few products that are popular with little wizards.

"As long as the price is lower, or even the same, we can have good sales."

“It doesn’t seem like the profit is high, but they are all consumables, and the long-term benefits are definitely considerable.

Wayne shook his head slightly: "You are right, but I don't have much energy to focus on this.

Penello bit her lip lightly, "What if I can make it?"

"I have also learned about the products of Zuko's Joke Shop. Although not all of them, I understand the principles of some of them, and they are not too difficult.

"Then why doesn't senior sister sell it herself?" Wayne asked.

"Because I want to run for prefect and student union president, so I can't do these businesses openly." Penello said embarrassedly:

"But I need money...so..."

Wayne suddenly discovered that this senior student was also a very ambitious person.

He remembered that Penello and Percy only dated for a year and then broke up. After graduation, there was no news about them.

There are rumors that she died during the Third Wizarding War because she was from a Muggle family and was persecuted by Death Eaters.

Now that I think about it, perhaps the reason why Penelo fell in love with Percy was because of his Weasley family status.

Don't look at Malfoy's wanton disparagement of Weasley, it's like pure blood shame.

But Mr. Weasley is quite popular in the Ministry of Magic, and the Weasley family is also a force that cannot be ignored in the magical world.

Wayne saw through these little tricks, but had no objection.

Why should we deny a person who works hard to climb up but has his own bottom line?

"Since senior sister is interested, I will introduce you to chat with Fred and the others." Wayne agreed: "But you still need to discuss the specific details, so I won't pay too much attention to them.

Now, apart from personally taking care of the big business that defrauded Slytherin, the Geminis were responsible for the rest.

When Penello heard Wayne agree, he smiled again.

With Wayne's promise, there is a high probability that the cooperation between the two parties will be achieved.

She was about to say something else when she heard shouting from behind.

"Penello!"

A red-haired boy caught up with the two of them, showing off the prefect badge on his robe like a peacock in full bloom.

Penello's smile faded a lot: "Weasley, please call me Crevat, you and I are not that familiar yet."

Percy's expression froze, and he reluctantly said: "Sorry, Crevat, I just thought it was a coincidence. I was just thinking about talking to you about preparations for running for prefect, and I saw you."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I have confidence in myself." Penello politely thanked him before saying to Wayne:

"Wayne, let's go, I still have some questions to ask you."

Wayne glanced at Percy and left with Penello without saying hello.

He didn't really like this Weasley either.

This person is so pretentious that he has to act like a prefect when talking to anyone.

Once, he stopped him and told him not to mess around with the Geminis.

The appearance of three-pointers has not yet been learned, and the power of the score official is lifelike.

Seeing the two of them walking away talking and laughing, Percy's face was filled with uncertainty.

As Christmas approaches, the little wizards’ thoughts go wild.

This is the only long holiday between the two semesters, lasting three weeks and more than twenty days.

Most people are going home for the holidays and will not come back until a week after New Year's Day.

Cedric sent an invitation to Wayne, hoping that he could come to his home as a guest, but Wayne couldn't find the time, so he had to postpone it to the summer vacation.

He didn't publicize his visit to Newt.

According to the attitude of Hufflepuff's per capita Newt fans.

Once you let them know, you will have no peace for the next few days.

On the last Tuesday before the holiday, Wayne came to Snape's office at eight o'clock sharp.

This is the last Potions class agreed between the two. After Christmas, the deal between the two parties ends here.

Looking at Wayne entering the door, Snape felt as if he was finally relieved.

He was really drained by Wayne.

I don’t know when this kid...

No, after the fight with Slytherin, my brain felt enlightened and my learning progress was getting faster and faster day by day.

No matter what difficult points he talks about, he can explain them in one point, and the mistakes he points out cannot be drawn from one instance to other cases.

If it weren't for his decades of experience and exclusive skills, Snape probably wouldn't be able to teach this brat after December.

Fortunately, today is the last class.

Thinking that he was finally free, Snape actually felt a little excited.

Looking at the precious materials next to the crucible, Wayne raised his eyebrows.

"You've spent a lot of money today, Professor."

Wayne searched all over his mind for a potion that could use these ingredients, but couldn't find any that matched.

Needless to say, it must have been developed by Snape himself.

"What type of potion do you think it will be?" Snape did not say clearly, but took the opportunity to test Wayne.

"Rose essential oil, narcissus, dragon horns, dragon blood, fairy wings, Lethe River water..." Wayne rubbed his chin, thinking about the effects of these materials, and deduced them in his mind.

"There are also Acromantula venom and rune snake eggs, you can make up for them yourself." Snape reminded.

"mean."

Wayne curled his lips. Ever since Snape knew that he had a large amount of Acromantula venom, he had to pay for it out of his own pocket whenever he needed to use this material.

"It seems..." Wayne was a little unsure, "It has something to do with magic and treatment."

It still didn't bother him...

Snape sighed, and waved his hand to summon the blackboard recording the process.

This time it's not one piece, but three whole pieces. It's full and densely written, and the process is extremely complicated.

Even a scumbag would be dizzy just by looking at it.

"Potential potion..." Wayne read word by word, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.

"That's right!" Snape raised his head slightly.

"This is the magic potion I succeeded in after three years of research, and it can develop a master's potential.

He was very proud of the potential potion and couldn't help but show off:

"There is one truth in the wizarding world, that is, the magic power of wizards can only grow naturally over time."

"But I just don't believe it. Potential Potion is the best evidence to refute them!"

"As long as you drink this magic potion, your magic power will be developed in advance, and the specific effects will vary according to the teacher's talent and the quality of the medicine.

"But there is no doubt that this is an epoch-making work!"

"Awesome." Wayne praised sincerely. This kind of work that breaks iron rules is indeed something to be proud of.

Then he licked his face and asked: "Professor, do you have a finished product? I want to feel the effect."

Snape looked at him with disgust: "Three bottles of Phoenix Tears, exchange for one."

"Then I'd better make it myself." Wayne wouldn't be fooled.

He read the process carefully, and all the details were imprinted in his mind.

"It's going to take half a month..."

The more advanced the magic potion, the longer it usually takes. Just like the blessing elixir, it takes half a year.

Advanced potion masters can shorten this time, but it is still very long.

Today, all Wayne can do is process some of the medicinal materials. The truly precious thing is the magic potion formula.

About an hour later, Wayne suddenly asked:

"How many bottles did you give Harry."

Snape subconsciously replied: "It won't have any effect after one bottle..."

After saying that, he finally reacted and his face became extremely gloomy.

"how do you know?"

"It's just a random guess." Wayne continued to handle the rune snake eggs without raising his head, "Didn't you help him recite the rhetorical question during the last Quidditch match?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Snape realized that this kid was too smart and chose to change the subject.

"There's something I just wanted to tell you. Have you ever heard of the Potion Exchange Competition?"

"oh?"

Wayne is interested. Didn’t the competition stop very early?"

He had read about the Potion Exchange Competition. It was an ancient competition that started in the fifteenth century and was not held until Grindelwald's cholera in Europe.

This time I stopped, I heard it now.

"Recently, several schools have expressed interest in restarting competitions." Snape gave some details:

"Dumbledore asked for my opinion yesterday. I just told him that I would only agree if you choose to participate."

"It would be a shame if other idiots participated."

"It is our duty to restore the glory of Hogwarts." Wayne said plausibly: "Of course I will not miss the opportunity to win honors for the school. When is the competition?"

Only by showing your good side will you be more confident when you get into trouble in the future.

If he wins the Potions Exchange Competition, even if he accidentally blows up half the school, will Dumbledore forgive him?

"It's still early. Many aspects of work need to be coordinated, and it will be next year at the earliest."

Snape said calmly: "Since you agree, then I'll tell Dumbledore."

Where Wayne couldn't see him, Snape shouted and smiled.

As long as Lawrence wins the championship, then he, the professor, will also become famous.

Show off, who wouldn’t want to?
