Hogwarts Crawler

"Adam, ugh--"

After finding the empty classroom where Adam usually stayed, Bernard pushed open the door and walked in confidently, but he took three steps back after taking half a step. He took several deep breaths to recover.

"You..."

Bernard was silent for a few seconds, and finally searched in his mind what the smell was like:

"Did the soy milk go bad?"

"Huh? No, I'm making a potion."

Adam added the last bit of material to the automatic stirring crucible, looked at the color in the crucible and nodded with satisfaction:

"It's almost done, and then just keep boiling for twelve hours..."

"Potion?"

Bernard finally found his voice:

"What kind of thunder-struck potion is this, and it tastes so weird!"

"Wolfsbane potion...soybean juice version? Hmm!"

Adam nodded in affirmation.

Thanks to his previous experience in flavoring the twins' prank candy, Adam has mastered how to adjust the taste without affecting the effect of the potion.

Of course, under the anonymous commission of a potion professor, the final product Adam brewed might be two to three bottles more than the normal wolfsbane potion.

"Wolfsbane potion?"

Bernard recalled and found that this was not what he had learned, so he ignored it:

"Never mind, are you going to continue the operation? In the afternoon, there will be a team test for Cologne and Eugene, and we agreed to go together to cheer them on."

"That's it, let's go."

Adam set an alarm and followed Bernard to set off.

"You were not here this morning, and when their Nimbus 2002 was delivered, it attracted a lot of attention."

"Nimbus 2002?"

Adam recalled,

"I remember that the best flying broom this year should be called Firebolt..."

"Really? I'm not sure about this, but I heard it from them..."

It was a good day today, which was very rare when there were Dementors entrenched at every entrance and exit. The two came to the Quidditch field. There was already a circle of people on the field. The Hufflepuff team - wearing canary yellow and copper brown uniforms - stood in the middle, looking very energetic.

Uther saw Adam and Bernard coming and walked towards them quickly:

"You are here, let's go, let's go to the back."

"Back?"

"Well, the front is full of official players, the test hasn't started yet, Eugene and the others are in the back."

Walking to the back, he saw Eugene and Colon there.

"You are here! How is it? Does this outfit suit me?"

Cologne couldn't help but turn around.

To be honest, this uniform doesn't fit him well. Cologne is thin, and the right size of clothes doesn't fit him well on the shoulders. But Adam waved his wand to solve this problem, and then gave him a thumbs up:

"It fits!"

Then Adam looked at Eugene who was talking to another Quidditch player on the side...

Compared to Cologne, Eugene's tall and well-proportioned figure can hold up the Quidditch uniform very well. The goalkeeper's armor is slightly bulged by the muscles, and it looks like a wall, giving people a full sense of security.

The senior next to him is almost the same size as him, and the two are wearing the same uniform. At this time, he is patting Eugene's back hard, and the uniforms collide with each other and make a dull sound.

"Senior Apefu is going to quit the team this year, but he is very optimistic about Eugene."

Cologne explained for them.

Apef was the goalkeeper before. He was very capable and rarely conceded a goal in a game. It can be said that the main reason why the Hufflepuff team couldn't win before was that they couldn't catch the Golden Snitch.

Then Colon told them that Eugene was the only one who applied to be the goalkeeper this year. With the approval of the previous goalkeeper, it was almost certain that he would become the goalkeeper.

"I'm different!"

Colon sighed:

"There are three people applying for the batsman this year, and my conditions are not very good..."

Especially in terms of body shape, which is a weakness.

"Don't worry, we all believe you can do it. The skills of Quidditch players are much more important than body shape."

Uther comforted Colon.

"Well said! It stands to reason that a seeker should be as small as possible so that he can be flexible enough, but look at Viktor Krum - he is as strong as a bear, and he can still get good results!"

Apefer had just finished talking to Eugene and was about to leave. Hearing this, he excitedly patted Uther's shoulder, but he seemed to forget to hold back, and Uther's eyes twitched.

"Oh! Sorry, I just got used to it..."

Apefer also noticed the problem and apologized quickly."It's okay... I'm used to it."

Hearing Uther's words, Apefu's apologetic expression showed a bit of confusion.

Uther rubbed his shoulders and inexplicably recalled that when he just got along well with Eugene, Eugene patted them like this... No, Eugene's strength was even greater.

Everyone obviously recalled that experience and looked at Eugene together.

Eugene turned around silently and started to do warm-up exercises.

Bernard glanced at his pocket watch:

"It seems to be about to start."

"Then let's go outside and wait to see your performance."

"Drink some hot water, relax your body, believe in your strength, and I will make a big meal for you after it's over."

The three came to the stands, and the first one to be tested was Eugene.

"Is it really just a formality..."

Bernard shook his head.

"That's not true. After all, there are still strength requirements for goalkeepers. If the performance is too bad, they will be eliminated."

Adam said:

"Look over there, the others are still very satisfied with Eugene's strength."

Bernard looked over and saw that several official Quidditch players were nodding frequently.

After that, several tests were conducted separately. Colon's performance did not seem to be particularly outstanding, but he was not at all inferior to the other competitors. I don't know what the final result will be.

In addition, the Seeker is the focus of the Quidditch game, and the competition is particularly fierce. Twelve people competed together, but Cedric caught the enchanted golf ball with an excellent result of 3 minutes ahead of the second place, so there was probably no suspense.

After the test, Cologne looked a little worried. After all, he might be more concerned about his own shortcomings, so Adam comforted him:

"Okay, don't think too much after the test. Worrying can't change the result. It's better to think about what to eat tonight."

It must be said that Cologne's mentality is indeed very good, or does he love food more than Quidditch? In short, after falling into the ultimate thinking of "what to eat tonight", Cologne didn't want to think about anything else.

In the end, Cologne and Eugene couldn't think of dinner, so Adam decided to cook hot pot. They ate grilled fish first, then added water and other hot pot ingredients. Everyone was very satisfied - especially the grilled fish had no bones.

The first class on Thursday was Divination, which was held with Ravenclaw on the roof of the North Tower. Adam and his group went up the stairs. They rarely came to such a high floor.

However, after reaching the top, everyone found that there was no way here, but they hadn't reached the Divination classroom yet. The space around was cramped and empty. However, someone soon discovered a trap door in the ceiling, but there were no stairs leading up further.
