Chapter 210: Halloween Eve

In the morning, Albert opened his sleepy eyes and tilted his head to look at the window. It was raining outside the castle, and the rain crackled against the window panes.

"It's raining again. He muttered, rolled over lazily, pulled up the sheet and covered his head again, ready to nest a little longer, and then get up again.

I don't know how long it took for Albert to open his eyes again, get up from the bed, stretch, get dressed, and wake everyone downstairs for breakfast.

Every year on Halloween, there is always something new happening in the Hogwarts Hall. Of course, bats and jack-o-lanterns will always be indispensable decorations.

After greeting his acquaintances at the table, Albert found an empty seat to sit down, sipping milk tea while flipping through today's Daily Prophet, grabbing a piece of pumpkin pie from his plate and eating it by himself, occasionally chatting with Angelina next to him.

Well, the topic has to do with broomsticks, and the Daily Prophet has an advertisement for the Halo Race Broomstick Company, which will launch a new broom next year: the Halo 2000, Potter's first broomstick.

"It's said that the products of this light wheel company are very good. Albert smiled and asked, "Do you regret buying it earlier?"

"Not really. Angelina shook her head, knowing it was a joke.

A burst of laughter interrupted the brief exchange, and Albert looked up in the direction from which the voice came from, and saw a large group of enchanted bats hovering over Lee Jordan's head. And Lee Jordan was hiding left and right, and raised his hand to drive away, but he couldn't drive away the group of bats, so angry that he threw the slices of bread in his hand towards the bat group.

"Okay, don't make a fuss, that's fine. Albert covered a yawn and said heartlessly, which caused Lee Jordan to roll his eyes.

Lee Jordan sat there sulking while eating, and it wasn't long before the bats flew away.

The first session in the morning is a herbal medicine class, no one likes to take a herbal medicine class in rainy weather, especially the class is in the medicine field outside the greenhouse, and when it rains, it will be busy in the medicine garden, and it won't be long before the whole person will feel as uncomfortable as if he was fished out of muddy water.

Thankfully, it was just a repot of the mandrake this morning.

Mandrake is a magical plant with powerful potion properties, just like last year's White Fresh, this magic plant will be used in many ways, especially when matured, and made into a powerful restorative.

Keep in mind that many spells that can't be lifted with spells require a powerful restorative made of mandrake to restore them to normal.

Since it was not the first time to repot a mandrake, everyone had gained experience and had already completed the task before the end of the class.

Stuffing the last mandrake back into the basin, Albert checked the task panel, and the task was indeed not completed, although it was expected, but it was still a little disappointed. Because it means that in order to actually get the job done, you need to have a pot of mandrake.

Before the end of the lesson, they were told what the next lesson would be: to take care of the wrinkled figs.

It is also a magical plant with powerful potion properties, and it is somewhat dangerous.

"Let's go, go to transfiguration class. Fred shook the dirt off his overalls vigorously, cleaned it up with a descaling charm, and then changed into his robes again and prepared to go to Professor McGonagall's class.

"Take your time. Albert muttered, and after dispelling his inner irritability, he went with the others to a transfiguration class, which was one of his best subjects.

Perhaps because of Halloween, Professor McGonagall knew that everyone was not interested in the lesson, so she used it as a review lesson. In class, he helped everyone review the Transfiguration techniques they had previously learned, and also talked about several cases of tragedy caused by Transfiguration, so as to warn everyone that they should be cautious when using Transfiguration magic.

After listening to the story, everyone got goosebumps, and the story told by Professor McGonagall was really terrifying, especially the tragedy of the five-legged monster.

The legend of the five-legged monster originated from the island of Delia, which is now a mystery, and it is said that the five-legged monster was once a wizard, and how terrible it is to think about a person who becomes a terrible monster and even his mind is completely distorted and can never be changed back.

Although Albert is not sure whether the story of the five-legged monster is true or not, he believes that it is highly likely to be true, because many old stories in this world are actually true and have their own Yiping.

"Professor McGonagall, hasn't the Ministry tried to turn those monsters back?" Katrina began, confused, knowing that even the most powerful Transfiguration Spell could still be restored by potions, such as the powerful Restorative Potion made by Mandrake.

"They refused. Professor McGonagall shook her head, "Rumor has it that the Magical Beasts Control Division tried to restore them to their original form, but the five-legged monsters resisted to restore them to their original form. ”

"Professor, will the transformed creature be restored to its original state when it dies?" Albert suddenly asked, in fact, Albert already had the answer vaguely in his mind.

The skeleton of the five-legged monster, he had seen it.

"No, I can't. Professor McGonagall said.

The Transfiguration lesson ends in the story.

After class, Albert stopped Katrina and talked about the last bet, which had been so long that they had almost forgotten about it.

"The first Quidditch match will start in mid-November, and our bets are on that day. Albert walked side by side with Katrina in the hallway.

The latter looked at Albert with a very strange gaze, and said in a strange tone, "I thought you had forgotten about it?"

"How could it be. Albert said excitedly, "Time is running out, are you ready?"

"Time is running out. Katrina glanced at Albert and said lightly, "Winning or losing is not so important to me anymore. ”

"Well, it looks like I'll save ten Galleons this time. Albert said.

"Save ten Galleons. Katrina's tone became even more strange, "I don't think you should be short of money, I heard that Isobel gave you a lesson, and you gave ten Galleons very generously, or you just admit defeat and give me ten Galleons." ”

Albert's face darkened, and he asked rhetorically, "Isobel told you?"

"So, it's really ten Galleons?" Katrina's tone was a little complicated, "no wonder she paid me that expensive birthday present a while ago." ”

Albert's face darkened when he heard this, he didn't expect that he was actually being talked to by others, is this a night road too much, did you meet a ghost?

"What did she teach you?" asked Katrina, curious.

"Ask her yourself. Albert said angrily.

"She doesn't say, let me ask you. ”

Albert was swallowed, too lazy to answer the other again, because Katrina was just talking to him.
