It's called "Hidden Incense", and it was dug up by Ralph and the others from one of Professor Sgrahorn's family notes.

The notebook had been given to the group by Professor Sgrahorn, and contained a lot of useful and useless potions that were a by-product of the development.

Professor Sgrahorn wanted them to "carry it forward" and gave them the note, which was still in his possession, of course.

Hidden magic incense, as its name suggests.

According to Ralph and their research, its scent is hidden in magic.

It will take about a week to completely metabolize the magic and return to heaven and earth.

At the same time, by changing the excipients of the Hidden Demon Incense, the invisible and intangible magic can be detected by some special potions or magic.

The Hidden Demon Incense also has a property, if there is no neutralization of magic power, it will diverge, the ultimate divergence.

If you take too much of it, the magic in your body cannot be fully absorbed, and it will wander through your body, radiating from various gaps to the outside world.

Because of this property, it is also very easy to disperse in the air.

Therefore, its aroma, although strong, does not linger for long.

It was with this characteristic that Daniel found the most suitable dosage for Filch.

Claude looked at the stats and raised an eyebrow.

He and little Barty looked at each other, and they both saw the same thing in each other's eyes.

'The amount of magic in Filch's body is too small. ’

Like them, they need at least half a bottle to replenish their consumption.

Of course, Ralph was not among them.

The magic power in his body is a bit ridiculously large compared to the little wizards of the same age.

It was because of this data that Daniel gave Filch a whole bottle of potion for the first time.

The feather float time, Filch is 5 seconds.

In terms of weight, you can't lift a troll wooden stick in first gear.

They conducted another detailed experiment, and finally came to the conclusion that the maximum weight of Filch's [Levitation Charm] was 50 ordinary pieces of parchment.

After a series of check-ups, they gave Filch a special magic workout program.

Filch keeps exercising every day.

Every once in a while, he would go to Ralph and them for a medical check-up.

The duration of the Levitation Charm has not increased, but the maximum weight has been increased with each physical examination.

This strengthened Filch's conviction.

Recently, Ralph and the others don't have much time to help Filch with a physical exam, because the final exams are approaching, and they are all revising.

Ralph: Their first exam subject was Charms.

The exam is divided into two parts: theory and practice, and the full score is 100 points.

The total score is 40% of the theoretical score plus 60% of the practical score.

Here's how it works:

The children line up to enter the classroom in turn.

There is a long table in the classroom, and the professor stands on one side of the table.

There is a pineapple at one end of the table, and the children's task is to make the pineapple as complete as possible to the other end of the table.

At the long table, there will be some obstacles.

The young wizards need to use the spells they have learned to solve them and make his pineapples reach the end.

The first item is to make the pineapple move, with a full score of 5.

The pineapple was near the professor's side, and there was a sign facing the examinee, which read, "Use [Levitation Charm]".

In other words, the key to making pineapples move is the [Levitation Charm].

After the candidate uses the [Levitation Charm] on the pineapple, the pineapple will float forward at an even speed, without the need for the children to control it.

The second is a wall of ice, suspended in the path of pineapples, which can be pushed. 15 out of 15.

At the Ice Wall, on the Professor's side, there was a sign that read "Fire Spell".

Therefore, the task of this item is to use the [Fire Spell] to melt the ice wall and let the pineapple pass.

However, there is definitely more to the test.

When the ice wall melts, it becomes a wall of water and stays in place.

If the flame temperature is too high, the ice will melt, but the temperature of the water will also become high, which may cause some changes in the pineapple, so that the score is not high.

If the temperature of the flame is too low, the ice wall will not have time to melt, and the pineapple will arrive, and obviously the score is not ideal.

If the flame is too strong and the table is burned, then the score is low.

The third item is a box, just enough for pineapples to pass, with a full score of 20 points.

However, on the inner wall of the frame there are dense sharp thorns.

The sign reads "Softening Charm".

The task of the examinee is to soften the small thorns so that the pineapple can pass without scars.

The professor will score the number of scars on the surface of the pineapple, and the higher the number, the lower the score.

The fourth item is a spiky iron ball hanging in the air, right on the passage of pineapples. 20 out of 20 points.

The test center is [Cutting Spell].

The iron ball is wrapped around a string attached to a small wooden stick suspended in the air.

The stick has a rope tied to each end and an iron ball attached, and there is also a rope in the middle.

There is a rope in the middle between the middle rope and the rope at both ends.

There are a total of 5 ropes tied to the iron ball, and the position of the iron ball is fixed.

Candidates need to cut the ropes in the correct order so that the iron balls fall right into the small pit below.

Otherwise, the iron ball will hit the table and smash the table with scars.

Although the pineapple can pass safely, Professor Flitwick will only give a base score of 10.

The fifth item, which is a small open door, the size of which does not allow pineapples to pass through, 30 points.

The test centers are [Locking Spell] and [Unlocking Spell].

Just lock and unlock the door as instructed in class, and the door will become larger, repeating up to three times.

In class, the professor has already spoken.

[Locking Spell] can be set according to the individual's will, and the lock that is unique to living alone and is quite difficult to unlock.

Then, the unlocker needs to use a specific will to cast the [Lockpicking Spell] to unlock it.

For example, you can put a lock on the door like this: 9+8+3√ ̄(9*3)+2-4+1+7=?

Then when someone unlocks it, it is necessary to release the [Unlocking Spell] so that there is a will to answer 26 in the magic power.

In the exam, the higher the difficulty, the bigger the unlocked door will become.

For this item, the basic score is 20 points, and the other 10 points look at the number of attempts and the difficulty of the lock.

If the candidate sets the difficulty too high and cannot solve it himself, the professor will help him solve it and ask him to try again, which will be counted as a second attempt.

Sixth, it is a hidden plus, which can be done or not.

A full score of 5 can exceed a full score of 100 points.

This item is a hole in the table, and since the pineapple is floating past, candidates may ignore it.

The test center is [Repair Spell], the most difficult spell in the first grade.

An additional 5 points can only be awarded if the hole is completely repaired.

Before the pineapple reaches the end, you can try it.

When the pineapple reaches the finish line, a burst of fireworks will flash at the finish line to congratulate the students on passing the exam.

Soon, it was Ralph's turn.

He walked in and greeted the professor.

Professor Flitwick responded with a smile, told him something, and let him go.

With a touch of the wand, the pineapple floated up and floated forward.

Ralph didn't make any other moves, just waited.

As the pineapple approached the ice wall, the wand was a little bit more, and a huge flame ignited, enveloping the ice wall and the pineapple.

Professor Flitwick raised his brow.

After a while, the flame was extinguished, and the pineapple also pierced out of it, without any change.

Ice walls are still ice walls.

Ralph's operation was very delicate, and although Professor Flitwick was no longer shocked by Ralph's outstanding performance, he still showed joy.

It was a feeling of joy to see the hunt.

When the flame envelops the ice wall and the pineapple, the temperature inside is different, which melts the ice wall without affecting the pineapple behind it.

After the pineapple passed through the wall of water, the temperature of the flame dropped sharply, turning the water back into ice, and it did not affect the pineapple.

In the subsequent projects, Ralph was even more handy, and without too many extra moves, he passed the level.

In the end, Ralph scored 105 points on his practical exam.

In the auditorium, Ralph was having lunch.

Filch came to them, hoping to help him test it at noon, and they did not refuse, and agreed on the spot.

Then, Filch left happily.

"Charms exam with hidden pluses?"

Overhearing the conversation around him, William looked at his roommate suspiciously.

"Hmm."

The three nodded.

"Where? Why didn't I find out? ”

William asked with a frown.

"I can't say it's hidden. After all, after the pineapple passes through the door, the distance from the end is still very long. Don't you see that hole? ”

Daniel explained, looking at William, and said.

"Who's going to pay attention to that hole! I also wondered how the professor managed to get a broken table. O Merlin! ”

William said indignantly, shoving a chicken leg into his mouth.

"Didn't you notice that all the spells we've learned this semester have appeared? How is it possible not to test the [Repair Spell] alone? ”

Ralph said, then tilted his head and struck William harder.

"I think normal people will think about what the topic of the [Repair Charm] is."

Hearing Ralph's words, Claude and Daniel nodded in unison, and they also found out.

William looked at the three of them and always felt that he was not on the same channel as them.

Moreover, the Ravenclaws around them also nodded in agreement, this is Ravenclaw!

Speechless and choked for a while, William could only turn his grief and anger into appetite.

In the afternoon, there is a practical exam for the herbal medicine class.

The theory exams for all subjects ended in the first week of the exam week, leaving only the practical exams in the second week.

The final score of herbal medicine is 70% of the theoretical score and 30% of the practical score.

The content of the theory test is as follows:

The environment in which the herb is grown, short-answer questions to identify the key points, true/false questions about whether the following herbs (name or picture) are poisonous, and multiple-choice questions with only two options:

What environment does the devil net hate:()

a. Dark and damp

b. Bright and dry

When you accidentally get entangled in the devil's web, which of the following spells can be used: ()

a. [Fire Spell]

B. [Softening Spell]

Wait a minute.

The content of the practical exam is as follows:

Professor Sprout will set up a greenhouse in the Hogwarts conservatory area to be used as an examination room.

Ingredients: A pot of devil's nets, an empty basin, a magic candle, a square table, a pair of scissors, and some dirt.

The exam consists of three items.

The first is to light a candle with matches and spells.

1 point out of 10, 1 point for ignition.

The remaining 9 points are given to the candidate after using the candle correctly.

The second item is to use scissors to cut the fluorescent branches of the devil's net, a total of 30 points.

These branches are side branches that the devil's net does not need and will affect its growth, and Professor Sprout has specially marked them.

Each candidate will only be shown 5 slips of paper, one in the innermost, middle, and outermost part of the entrenched devil's net.

There is only 1 root in the innermost part, which accounts for 7 points; 2 sticks in the middle part, a total of 10 points; The outer part is 1 root, which accounts for 3 points.

There are also 10 points for the student's operation and the safety of the plant.

The third item is to change the pot of the devil's net, a total of 30 points.

5 points out of the pot, 10 points into the pot, 5 points for filling; The remaining 10 points are in the operation of the students and the safety of the plants.

The three items have a total of 70 points, and the remaining 30 points are for the safety of the students themselves.

It is worth noting that both the second and third items need to be operated close to the lit magic candle, otherwise 9 points will be lost.

Looking at the score ratio of the herbal medicine exam, you may feel that theory is more important in this course.

But, in fact, this is not the case.

The practical test of herbal medicine is to check the children's ability to take care of plants, which is more in line with the meaning of the course itself.

Its theory test focuses on the identification of dangerous plants.

Combined with the distribution of scores in the practical exams, we can see that Professor Sprout is more concerned about the safety of children.

Therefore, the focus of the herbal medicine class is not on anything else, but on identification.

She never hoped that Hogwarts would be able to walk out of one herbalist master, only that the children who walked out of Hogwarts would be able to identify dangerous plants and avoid their suffering.

"Ralph, it's your turn."

Hansen walked out of the greenhouse, covered in mud but with a happy smile, said to Ralph.

"yes, got it."

Ralph walked into the greenhouse.

Professor Sprout smiled and nodded to him, gesturing to the sign standing on the table.

The sign says everything about the exam.

"When you're ready, you're ready to go."

Professor Sprout said mildly.

Ralph held his wand and tapped it to the candle on the table, and the candle was lit.

And Professor Sprout was very kind to put the devil's net next to the magic candle.

The light and heat of the candles just suppressed the devil's net, allowing the students to prune the branches more safely.

Ralph put on the dragon's skin gloves, picked up the scissors, and carefully brushed away the vines of the devil's net, successfully reducing the branches inside.

He slowly took out the branch, dipped a little of the slime that had spilled from the branch, and wiped it back into the cut in the main vine.

After that, the operation of the middle branch and the outer branch is still the same.

Then Ralph inserted his finger into the soil, and the finger fluctuated a few times, and after a few strokes, the soil loosened.

Then, he grabbed the root of the devil's net, swayed it from side to side a few times, and then pulled it out, and the devil's net was pulled out of it.

Ralph glanced at the table and froze for a moment, as the empty basin was not on it.

He pointed to the empty basin not far away, and the empty basin floated over.

Ralph put the devil's net in the basin, took the basin and candle to the edge of the dirt, and began to fill it in.

Soon, Ralph completed all the projects.

Professor Sprout also gave him a reassuring smile.

After the herbal medicine class exam, William specifically asked Ralph if they had any hidden pluses.

Of course not.

Professor Sprout has always been a caring witch, and she never makes things difficult for everyone.
