Hogwarts: I am the White Lord
Chapter 171 Selection Test
After hearing the news about Sebastian, Congressman Jonathan could no longer sit still.
He immediately found Sean who had just finished his rehabilitation checkup, gave him a few words and left the hospital.
Time is precious, he must cherish every minute and every second.
Sebastian found Dr. Pete and used the Forgetfulness Spell to make him forget everything that happened in the past two days.
Afterwards, he did not stay long, but spoke a few words to Regulus before returning to Swann Manor using the Apparition spell.
After completing the new layout, Sebastian felt relieved.
He went to the bedroom and had a good nap to recharge his energy for teaching next week.
..................
At 6:30 on Monday evening, Sebastian did not go home with Mia. Instead, after dinner, he walked slowly towards a large classroom.
Tonight is the time for the Alchemy Club to recruit new members. He needs to carefully select and pick out a few talented people in alchemy.
Unlike clubs for other courses, Hogwarts has not yet officially established an alchemy class, so Sebastian cannot make a choice based on grades.
In order to deal with this situation, Sebastian announced to the students the establishment of an Alchemy Club as early as the opening dinner.
Students who are interested in signing up for the Alchemy Club must receive a book from him and then spend a week preparing for the course.
Tonight, he will conduct selection tests to select the truly talented students from among them.
At this time, there were about thirty students in the selection classroom. They sat together in twos and threes, excitedly discussing tonight's selection test.
"Why are there only so few people here? I thought I would have to compete with many people. This is the Alchemy Club."
"Obviously, with the exam changes this year, many people are worried about not being able to pass the exam, so they don't dare to take time out to join the club."
"Not only that, since no one has any basic knowledge of alchemy, the professor took out this book and asked us to finish studying it within a week. This step alone discouraged many people from thinking about it."
As he spoke, the student raised the thin book in his hand to the students around him - "Baby Alchemy, How to Make Ten Interesting Magic Toys".
"This way, everyone is on the same starting line. The professor is also very interesting, letting us preview such simple things."
"Yes, I was worried that it would be difficult, but I didn't expect it to be so easy. It only took me three days to memorize all the contents of the book."
Simple?
Hearing the students' discussion, Fred and George smiled at each other and did not comment on anyone's comments.
They have also read the children's alchemy enlightenment book. The ten alchemical examples in it seem simple, but the alchemical knowledge contained in each example is progressive and is actually quite challenging.
It is definitely not an easy task to master all of them within a week and refine them by yourself.
They both had a hunch that tonight's recruitment activities would definitely not stop at the test paper, but would go directly to practical operations.
After all, when it comes to alchemy, theory and practice are two completely different things.
Even if you have memorized the contents of the book, you will still encounter many unexpected difficulties and challenges when you actually do the work.
They guessed that the professor wanted to use this method to select those who were truly gifted in alchemy.
When Sebastian walked into the classroom, the students stopped discussing and looked at him with burning eyes, unable to wait to show their talents.
Sebastian stood on the podium and went straight to the point: "I believe everyone has finished reading the alchemy enlightenment book."
"So, tonight everyone needs to work on their own to refine the tenth example in the book - the toy carriage."
As he spoke, Sebastian stretched out his wand and waved it gently at his traceless stretch bag.
Suddenly, sets of alchemical tools flew out and landed precisely in the hands of each student.
Then he made the podium bigger and wider, took out a large amount of alchemical materials and placed them on it.
"The introductory book has already explained the alchemical materials needed. Now you need to come up and pick out the materials you need from here."
"After selecting them, you can start refining them directly."
"The deadline is 9 o'clock tonight. What are you waiting for? Let's get started."
Hearing this, the young wizards did not dare to delay and came forward one after another to select materials according to the instructions in the book.
"Fred and George, this toy is too simple for you. Stop wasting materials and come over here to help maintain order."
"From today on, you will be the assistant teachers of the Alchemy Club."
"If anyone doesn't know how to use alchemical tools later, you can go over and demonstrate it yourself."
The young wizards glanced at the twins, but could not express any dissatisfaction.
After all, the twins had already made a navigation map, which was much more complicated than the toys in the book.
They didn't have time to envy the twins, but just hurried to start selecting materials.
This choice doesn’t matter, the little wizards’ questions arise one after another.
Where is the beech?
These types of wood all look different, what's the difference?
Oh no, I just saw that beech was included in the material formula, but I didn't check what this wood looked like specifically.
After finally selecting the wood, the little wizards were in trouble again.
It is also a big challenge to turn the wood into suitable shapes and sizes according to the data in the book.
They used cutting spells to process the wood bit by bit, cutting it into pieces of the right size.
This is not an easy task for young wizards who are trying it for the first time.
Fortunately, Sebastian provided enough materials, so the little wizards didn't have to worry about the materials being damaged.
After finally processing the wood, the next step is to carve magic runes on it.
There are not many magic runes, only two, one for start and the other for stop, and these two runes are very simple, with only a few strokes.
However, the little wizards holding the rune carving knives were still in trouble.
Carving magic runes on materials is a delicate matter. If you are not careful, the magic runes will go wrong, and the whole thing will need to be started over again.
The next step is to prepare the alchemical solution so that the magic runes can truly take effect.
Finally, all the parts are assembled to form a complete toy carriage.
Sebastian kept watching, this was a seemingly simple task, but in fact it tested the students' patience and skills.
He found that the young wizards showed completely different performances in the process.
Some of the young wizards prepared very well and seemed to be at ease from the moment they selected the materials, and it was obvious that they had practiced in advance.
But most of the little wizards did not prepare well enough, seemed a little flustered, and failed many times.
Some of them did not get discouraged. After each failure, they would patiently analyze the problem and try new methods.
Some little wizards were a little impetuous. With each failure, they became more and more impatient. In the end, they even threw their tools on the table in anger and sat there staring at their works in a daze.
As time passed, Sebastian gradually chose the right person in his mind.
When it was exactly 9 o'clock, Sebastian clapped his hands to attract the students' attention.
"Time is up, and the next step is the acceptance stage."
"Come on, interested students come to the stage to show their achievements."
