I've already become a Hogwarts professor, and the system only just appeared.

Chapter 57 Jumping Pot Temple

Su Yu looked at Snape again, his expression becoming much more serious: "That dog is following a fixed procedure, so is this an illusionary world? Could it be that our bodies are still outside?"

Snape shook his head: "No, we are still controlling our own bodies, and the flow of magic within us is normal. It's just that something in this space is interfering with our five senses."

"Let's go, let's go out and try it!" Su Yu led Snape and Timo back to the street, and then took something out of his hand.

Snape had seen this before; it was the magic oscillator that Su Yu used to stop Quidditch from casting a spell on Harry during the Quidditch match. No matter what kind of spell it was, as long as it was being cast, this thing could interfere with it to some extent.

Su Yu walked into the main street, turned on the vibrator, and set the power to the maximum. A wave of magical energy spread outward from Su Yu, reaching as far as 100 meters away.

Wherever the magical ripples passed, people who were walking or working on the street immediately stopped and stood still, like robots that had lost power.

About five seconds later, these people started moving again, and after a delay of about three seconds, they resumed their previous actions.

Seeing this result, Su Yu and Snape felt both happy and worried. They were happy because the magic oscillator was indeed effective, indicating that the town's residents were definitely being controlled by some kind of magic.

The worry is that this magic is obviously very advanced; at least the magic oscillator cannot directly interrupt it, but can only temporarily stop it.

Furthermore, the surrounding environment remains unchanged, which suggests that the environment is likely real. They may be in a space where reality and illusion intertwine, but they cannot distinguish between what is real and what is illusory.

Just as the two were pondering, the middle-aged man from before approached them again and asked, "Where are the three of you from?"

That expression is exactly the same as before. Could it be that the magic oscillator reset this uncle's process?

This time, Su Yu used a different approach, his expression fierce as he said, "It's none of your business!"

The middle-aged man quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean any harm. I just wanted to tell you that there is a temple in our town where the merciful Jumping Pot is enshrined."

"No matter who you are, as long as you pray sincerely and express your wish, Lord Jumping Pot will grant you a magical potion to make your wish come true. If you have any wishes, you might as well give it a try."

Although the way it was presented was different, the uncle once again brought up the topic of the Jumping Pot, wanting him and the others to go to the temple of the Jumping Pot.

The three of them saw the uncle off and continued on their way, arriving at a fruit stall. An older woman introduced them, saying, "You must be from out of town. These are all freshly picked fruits today. Pick whatever you like."

Su Yu casually picked up an apple, handed it to Snape, and asked the old woman, "Where is the inn in your town? We need a place to stay."

"The inn? Just keep walking straight along the street, it's at the end of town," the woman pointed to Su Yu and continued:

"By the way, you will pass by the temple of Lord Jumping Pot along the way. The great Lord is very kind. As long as you pray sincerely and tell him your wish, Lord Jumping Pot will grant you a magic potion to make your wish come true."

Su Yu didn't reply, but looked at Snape, who was holding an apple under his nose and sniffing it intensely.

Seeing Su Yu looking over, Snape gently shook his head and handed the apple back. Su Yu took the apple and asked the old lady, "How much is this?"

The woman seemed even happier than before when a customer came in, and said, "Five apples for a penny."

“Sorry, we don’t have any pennies, but we do have these silver coins. Can we exchange them for an apple?” Su Yu took out a silver coin from his seamless stretch bag.

The older woman took the silver sachet, bit it, and said, "Of course, please take it."

As they spoke, the older woman cheerfully put away the silver sherry, but Su Yu noticed that the bite marks left on the sherry were rather strange.

Without saying much, Su Yu, holding the apple, continued forward with Snape and Teemo. They interacted with several passersby, but no matter how they started the conversation, these people always brought up the temple and the bouncy pot.

“It seems we have no choice but to make a trip to the temple,” Su Yu said with a smile to Snape.

“Isn’t this what you came here for? Don’t you want to see it?” Snape said.

"Let's go then."

The temple was already in sight; it was a white marble building, clearly different from the surrounding shops.

There is a small square and a fountain in front of the temple. Several children were playing and frolicking in the square, occasionally startling the pigeons that were strolling there.

“It looks like this used to be a very peaceful and quiet town,” Snape remarked suddenly.

Su Yu didn't know what Snape was thinking, but he was currently considering other possibilities, so he simply replied, "Perhaps."

Then he handed the apple to Snape and asked, "Is this apple really alright?"

Snape took the apple: "As far as the touch and smell are concerned, there is no problem. If you dare to take a bite, you will probably be able to judge more accurately."

Su Yu rolled his eyes. What a joke! In this space where reality and illusion are combined, eating whatever you want is practically suicide.

In a better-case scenario, it might be a rock or a clod of earth. But if it were a lump of rotting flesh covered in slime, he would die on the spot. Su Yu even added a layer of magic to his palm to protect it when he held it.

"Why don't you try it? After all, you're a potion master. You'll know what's in it once you try it," Su Yu suggested.

Snape, too lazy to waste any more words with Su Yu, put the apple into the Seamless Stretch Bag and turned to walk towards the temple.

Timo, who was standing to the side, said, "Mr. Su, if you need it, Timo can give it a try."

House-elves are always so sweet and adorable. Su Yu said, "It's okay, let's go inside and take a look."

After saying that, he followed Snape into the Temple of the Bouncing Pot, which was highly recommended by all the townspeople.

The temple wasn't actually that big. As soon as you entered, there was a large hall with two young women dressed in white gauze robes, who were probably nuns.

Upon seeing Su Yu and his two companions enter, one of them immediately came forward and said, "You three must be from out of town. Whatever your wishes may be, as long as you sincerely pray to Lord Jumping Pot, he will grant you the magic potion to fulfill your desires."

"Can I rule the world if I want to?" Su Yu suddenly asked.

The nun was clearly taken aback for a moment, as if her program had frozen, but she quickly recovered and said, "Please don't make such jokes in the temple. Lord Jumping Pot is a great and righteous being, and he would never help you do such a thing."

Chapter 58 The Jumping Pot God

Su Yu chuckled at the nun's reaction and waved his hand, "I was just joking. What should we do?"

The nun's complexion quickly returned to normal, and she led the three forward to the place where the bouncy pot was enshrined. The shrine was not particularly special, with a marble altar and two carved marble pillars on either side.

The Jumping Pot stood on that stone platform, yes, standing. It was a huge yellow crucible about three meters high and one and a half meters in diameter. The most peculiar thing was that the crucible did not have a base, but instead had a long leg that was one and a half meters long.

The long leg is made of the same brass material as the crucible, and it looks muscular and lifelike. I wonder what it would look like if it jumped.

The nun brought three flowers and said, "Please offer these flowers and pray sincerely here. Lord Jumping Pot will naturally respond to your wishes."

The three of them took the flowers and placed them in front of the shrine. Then, imitating the nun, they put their hands together in prayer. But the next moment, the coal ball in Su Yu's arms poked its head out and let out an angry roar.

Su Yu's own anti-electra necklace also began to heat up. He opened his eyes and looked at the jumping pot on the shrine. This guy could actually use electra.

As a master of Occlumency and Legilimency, Snape also sensed the jar's movements. He flicked his wrist, and his wand appeared in his hand, ready for battle.

"You, you are wizards!" Seeing Snape pull out his wand, the nun turned pale with fright and retreated repeatedly. Just as she was about to say something, the bouncy pot spoke up:

"Relax, outsider. I mean no harm. I just want to know what your wishes are, and then I will grant them. Since you don't want me to investigate directly, you can tell me your wishes yourself."

The sound of the bouncy pot was deep and resonant, like that of an elder, possessing the power to soothe the soul. Su Yu and Snape immediately realized that the sound also contained a kind of enchanting magic.

The two exchanged a glance, shared their thoughts, and then, pretending to be nonchalant, were about to speak when Little Teemo spoke first, saying, "I want... I want my master to be resurrected..."

Timo's thoughts had been read by the Jumping Pot, and he responded, "Sorry, I don't have the ability to bring the dead back to life, but here is a potion that can temporarily take you back to your happiest moment."

With a bang, a bottle of colorful magic potion flew out of the bouncy pot and landed precisely in Teemo's hand.

Timo looked at the potion in his hand, his expression a mixture of excitement and confusion. For some reason, he felt an urge to open it and drink it down in one gulp.

"Teemo, don't rush, let's make our wishes together!" Su Yu said at the crucial moment. His voice also contained some magic, but it wasn't magic, but rather an application similar to a magic oscillator.

Timo jolted awake, snapping out of his strange state. He looked at Su Yu, then at the potion in his hand, feeling a lingering fear. He glanced warily at the Jumping Pot and put the potion away.

"What are your wishes? Please tell me," Jumping Pot continued, ignoring Timo.

Snape said, "I want all your potion recipes."

Upon hearing this, the scene fell silent for a moment. After a pause of about ten seconds, Jumping Pot continued, "I'm sorry, I don't have any potion recipes, but you can take the potions I make and do your own research."

After he finished speaking, a bottle of dark blue potion flew out of the cauldron and landed in Snape's hand. Snape opened the potion, sniffed it lightly, and then put it away.

Finally, it was Su Yu's turn. He said, "I want to leave here."

Su Yu's condition seemed to be within Jumping Pot's expectations, and he immediately responded, "As you wish!"

With a "poof," another bottle of potion flew out of the bouncy pot. This time, the potion was silvery-white, and there seemed to be colorful light flowing inside, making it very mysterious.

"Alright, go back now. Drink the potion, and perhaps your wishes will come true. If you have any other wishes, please come back tomorrow." After saying that, the Jumping Pot fell silent again.

The nun said, "Alright, you three, you may leave now."

As they left the temple, Su Yu handed the potion he was holding to Snape and asked, "What do you think is wrong with this so-called 'Bouncing Pot'?"

Snape took the potion, smelled it, and said, "I don't know, but as far as potions are concerned, there shouldn't be any problem. Mine is a memory potion, which will probably enhance my thinking and memory, and improve my learning efficiency."

"This bottle contains a spatial perception potion. I think that after you drink it, your Apparition will be greatly enhanced, allowing you to leave this place."

"Sir, where is my potion?" Timo asked, handing over his potion.

Snape sniffed it and said, "It's a hallucinogenic potion. After you drink it, you'll most likely be trapped in a memory."

Su Yu pondered, "If the potions given by the Jumping Pot are all genuine, then it means that it must provide the corresponding potions according to the needs of the person praying."

"So what is the price?" Snape asked.

Su Yu said, "Perhaps it is the power of the believer's faith."

“But we didn’t offer our faith and still received the potion. According to this logic, if we drink the potion, we must have to give something else in return,” Snape said, expressing his thoughts.

"There are too many suspicious things about this place. Perhaps we should observe it further and find a hotel to stay in first," Su Yu suggested.

"Sir, can Teemo drink this potion?" Teemo asked from the side, his eyes filled with longing. Even if it was just a memory, he wanted to relive it.

Su Yu crouched down, patted Timo on the shoulder, and said, "Teemo, I respect any decision you make, but you have to understand that we may be in a space where reality and illusion coexist."

"We can't be sure whether this potion is truly effective or has any adverse effects, so I suggest we put it away first and wait until we get out and confirm that it's truly harmless before taking it."

“Okay, Mr. Su! Timo trusts your judgment!” Timo finally accepted Su Yu’s suggestion and put the potion away.

The three continued on their way and arrived at the hotel they had inquired about at the beginning. The hotel was called Green Apple Bar. At its entrance sat a fat uncle with a worried face and a thick beard.

"Uncle, give us three rooms, we want to stay here for one night," Su Yu called out to the fat uncle.

The portly man looked up and said, "Okay, 3 pence per room, including breakfast. If you need to have lunch here, you'll have to pay an extra pence."

Su Yu followed the same method, this time taking out a Galleon and handing it to the uncle: "Is this gold coin okay?"

The man took the gold coins, his face changing drastically. He said in a terrified voice, "You...you are wizards! You'd better leave quickly, wizards are not welcome here!"

Chapter 59 Dracula's Castle

"Oh? Uncle, you know about wizards?" Su Yu's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked.

The man, however, looked pained, took two steps back, and slumped into a chair, clutching his head: "No, no wizards! Wizards bring death... Little Ji is dead... They're all dead! Go... Go away..."
