Everyday Players at Hogwarts..

Chapter 766: Steps for Brewing Mass Potion

Speculation about the Crucible came to an abrupt end.

Because when Ryan was introducing the knowledge of the crucible, the staff table was already full of people.

Arthur Weasley, Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic, who had always been the host of every game, was naturally among them.

"Hello everyone!

I am Arthur Weasley.

I will not be hosting this game today.

It will be handed over to someone more professional - Castel Pollach, grandfather of the famous pharmacist Libasho Pollach."

Caster Pollach, the tree shepherd who looked almost identical to Dumbledore except for the dark spots on his skin, stood up.

“You all should have seen it.

In front of you are four long tables, cauldrons, and four sets of potion making equipment.

The long table was filled with the ingredients for the potion you had refined with magic these days: ooze grass, ginger root, horn of the horned camel, hellebore, feathers of the silent bird, lionfish spine powder, moonstone,
What you will have to do later is to refine the equipment in your school one by one using the method of refining potion materials.

In addition, each school must send a student with excellent potions.

Later, he or she will process the materials and brew the potion according to the potion-making steps I gave.

Finally, you all step forward one by one and use your magic wand to stir it counterclockwise for one circle.

By then, the group potion for today's competition will be successfully brewed.

I will introduce its effects.

And used four toads to test the potion's effectiveness.

"

"Why use toads? Can't we use mice?" Hermione asked, nudging Ryan with her elbow.

"Then do you know why toads are among the three pets allowed to be brought to school?" Ryan did not answer directly, nor did he wait for Hermione to answer before continuing: "Although toads themselves do not have any magical abilities, they are good objects for practicing spells and testing potions.

Especially when it comes to potions, toads are very useful to pharmacists.

Because their skin can absorb liquids, this makes it easier to test potions that need to be taken orally.

In addition to this, they are highly resistant to magic.

Practicing spells and testing potions on them is actually a kind of training for them.

In some ways, it may even extend their lifespan.

If you think about it, it's kind of cool to have a pet that gets stronger the more it's exercised."

"I don't think so." Hermione made a vomiting face, "I still think cats are best."

Luna on the side also rarely agreed with Hermione's opinion and nodded.

Ryan was about to say something, but he suddenly noticed that the air suddenly became quiet.

Luna lowered her head and played with her fingers.

Hermione stared unabashedly at the stage.

It's all because of one thing.

Penelope was elected by all senior students to represent Hogwarts and become the student who processed and brewed potion materials.

Durmstrang's men were not warriors either.

It was the senior student who led the team before.

Castrobus chose Elvas.

Beauxbatons chose Fleur.

"Hmph! Aren't they both excellent?" Hermione said something sarcastic when she saw Fleur also standing in front of the cauldron.

It is not yet known how Ryan comforted Hermione and Luna.

At the moment Harry felt very bored.

The same was true for the other students around him.

So they started chatting about the game.

"So, we just need to stand here, clean the equipment, and stir the potion?" Harry looked a little disappointed. First, the content of the game had nothing to do with him.

Second, he became the only champion who was not chosen. It was normal for Krum to be excluded. He was excluded in Durmstrang. Beauxbatons and Castellobusher chose their own champions. But when they arrived at Hogwarts, the candidate became Penelope. Their prefect and the head student council president.

Third, he did not find any information from Professor Polachi that could be used in the final individual competition.

"Yeah! The people in our school are really crazy!
Although senior sister Clearwater is excellent.

But Harry is not bad! He is the best at potions.

And he's a warrior! The Warriors should be chosen for the championship!" Ron said indignantly.

Anthony, a loyal fan of Harry, expressed a different opinion, "I think it's better not to choose Harry.

This is a team competition. If we lose in the end, it has nothing to do with the individual.

It’s because our average potion level is not as good as the other side.

But if it really comes to that, most students will probably blame the operator - I mean senior sister Clearwater.

Harry was not selected, so he avoided being blamed and escaped a disaster.

Besides, Senior Clearwater is still a student of our Ravenclaw after all.

Doesn't this mean that among the four houses, we, Ravenclaw, are the best?"

"Keep your voice down. Don't let people from other colleges hear it. Even though it's the truth." Michael made a hushing gesture.

“But I don’t think we will lose.

If we win, won't all the honor go to Senior Clearwater?" Ron objected.

“I think it’s a good thing.

I was not selected.

Senior Clearwater is the perfect fit.

If you win.

When people think of Miss Clearwater, they think of her as a Ravenclaw prefect," said Harry.

He quickly forgot his melancholy.

Because he knew Penelope's identity - Ryan's girlfriend.

"Well, it's almost our turn," Ginny interrupted.

Maybe it's because the operator is Penelope.

The students stepped forward one by one to clean their equipment, starting with Ravenclaw.

Before I knew it, an hour had passed.

The crucible is already boiling.

Penelope and three other students, following Professor Pollach's instructions, had already thrown in some potion materials that didn't need to be processed: lionfish spine powder, wormwood, dried nettles, etc.

The entire auditorium was filled with light blue steam.

Crucible Your liquid has turned into a smooth brown color.

Then, the four of them picked up the pestle and began to grind the materials that needed to be ground into powder, such as moonstone, horns of horned beasts, frog brains, etc.

Then, the four of them picked up the silver daggers and started cutting the materials that needed to be chopped, such as ginger roots, double-eared grass, and caterpillars.

Then, under the instructions of Professor Pollachi, the four began to put the materials in one by one, and stirred the soup pot clockwise or counterclockwise in the crucible with their magic wands as required.

I don’t know how much time passed.

The enchanted ceiling has turned dim.

The fog in the auditorium was gradually sucked back into the crucible.

The liquid inside also began to become clearer like water.

"Quick! Just do as I said just now and come up one by one.

Stir the potion counterclockwise for one week!
Hurry! It’s just in time!” Professor Pollachi shouted.
