Ever since he lost to Albert Anderson in the first round of the Magic School Potions Championship a few days ago, he found that his potion talent and pride that he had been proud of since childhood had been ruthlessly stepped on.
Crushed into mud.
I still remember when I was a child, my grandfather told him that you were very talented in the field of potions.
Guy Bernard did not disappoint everyone's expectations. After entering Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he showed amazing talent in potions and participated in the Potions Championship, preparing to turn this event held once every seven years into a magical potions tournament.
A stepping stone to take yourself one step further.
However, everything has changed in recent months.
His grandfather, who has become the president of the Association of Extraordinary Pharmacists, told him that if you want to win the Potion Championship, you must follow his arrangements.
Guy Bernard actually refused from the bottom of his heart. He believed that his talent and ability could win him the golden crucible. There was no need to cheat, nor did he bother to cheat.
"Your potion talent is just a little better than others. Your current achievements come more from the fact that I spent a lot of energy teaching and training you when you were a child." President Bernard cruelly awakened his grandson's dream,
"I told you that you have great talents, just because I hope you can maintain your enthusiasm and confidence in the field of potions. But now that you are an adult, you need to start facing reality. The world is never as simple as you think."
Guy Bernard sadly discovered that he was able to pass the entrance examination of the Association of Extraordinary Pharmacists in one go only because his grandfather helped him cheat, so he chose a happy potion.
No matter what, he was unwilling to believe this cruel reality, and still had a chance, thinking that he could still obtain the golden crucible with his own ability.
The first round of the game cruelly crushed all Guy Bernard's pride. Like his grandfather told him, he was just more talented than others, not a so-called genius.
If you want to take a further step in the field of potions when you are young, the Potions Championship is a good step to advance. Winning the competition can make the rest of his life smoother, and all he needs to do is follow the opponent's instructions.
Make arrangements.
Guy Bernard originally objected to cheating, but he also discovered that in the Potions Championship, just like his grandfather said, everyone is cheating, and cheating has long become a part of the game.
Therefore, Guy Bernard compromised. He wanted to win the final victory and crush the annoying British guy under his feet.
Even Guy Bernard had to admit that Albert's handsome face made him extremely jealous. That guy obviously already had a beautiful girlfriend, but he still hooked up with other beautiful girls. He was simply a human being.
scum.
What made Guy Bernard even more jealous was that the potion master who invented Wolfsbane Potion seemed to be very familiar with him, and the two of them talked on an equal footing.
Allowing the Potions Master to communicate with you on an equal footing means that he recognizes your ability in the field of potions.
How can this be?
Guy Bernard couldn't believe his guess.
Is the world crazy?
Or are you crazy?
I must be crazy.
Guy Bernard finally came to the conclusion that he actually thought that the other party was a potion master.
That butter boy must have cheated, just like me.
When Guy Bernard was so consoling himself, President Bernard ruthlessly shattered his illusions. The European wizarding world had never heard of the surname Anderson. At least Albert Anderson did not come from a prominent family. The wizarding family.
Guy Bernard also heard that Albert Anderson was actually a Muggle wizard.
This news is not groundless. It comes from the British "Daily Prophet". When Albert Anderson won the International Wizarding Chess Competition, this matter made a fuss.
There are various indications that Albert Anderson's current achievements are related to his talent and hard work.
Because he is the most famous genius wizard in Britain, everyone thinks that he is another Albus Dumbledore. Some people say that his future achievements may even surpass Dumbledore, and he will become the Minister of Magic within a dozen years.
(Professor Slughorn once boasted to Mrs. Selina in order to get her help and successfully persuaded her to help Albert as much as possible.)
Guy Bernard had lost his spirit, and even more so his confidence in defeating the Englishman on his own. He had not lost yet, he knew the rules of the game and had received many useful "advices".
Although he was reluctant, Guy Bernard knew that as long as he followed the "advice" given by his grandfather, he had a high probability of winning the final championship. He must pick that damn butter little boy under his feet. Take away the final golden crucible that symbolizes glory.
Although the life arranged by others was not what he longed for, Guy Bernard actually had no other better choice.
The second round was actually a trap.
The original magic school potion championship only had one round, in which contestants entered the magic garden to collect raw materials and brew a potion.
The event organizer will provide a raw material to the contestants, mainly to test the contestants' understanding and breadth of potions, and hope that the potion geniuses can perform amazing feats in the competition.
However, the Magic School Potions Championship is also gradually changing, that is, there is a first round of screening, but the actual situation has not changed much.
In this Potion Championship, the organizer will no longer provide raw materials to the players. This is inconsistent with the information that most players have learned. In other words, this is a trap.
If they don't listen carefully and think that the tournament organizer will provide them with a raw material, then they are likely to be ruthlessly eliminated.
As for the third round, Guy Bernard is also ready.
Throughout the summer vacation, he underwent rigorous training with the help of his grandfather. Guy Bernard felt very complicated after knowing the old man's good intentions.
Following the "advice" given by the old man, Guy Bernard easily found all the potions. However, in order not to stand out too much, he also collected other raw materials along the way.
About an hour later, Guy Bernard had collected the ingredients for the magic potion he needed and was ready to leave the Magic Garden to complete the second round ahead of schedule.
While passing by several Ariot plants, Guy Bernard suddenly fell into a trance for a moment, and his head went blank.
When Guy Bernard came to his senses again, he felt a strange taste in his mouth, and the worst thing was, he found himself lying on the ground laughing hysterically, holding several Aliote tablets in his hand leaves.
What's wrong with you?
Guy Bernard didn't even have much energy to think about other issues. His uncontrollable laughter almost made him lose most of his thinking ability. It was even difficult to get up from the ground.
Guy Bernard's change immediately attracted the attention of nearby patrol members.
There was nothing I could do about it, his laughter was too loud and weird.
The patrol member was actually very hesitant and didn't know how to handle this situation.
There is no doubt that the precious grandson of the president of the Extraordinary Pharmacist Association was attacked by someone. No fool would rashly stuff Ariote's leaves into his mouth.
If he stepped forward to help now, it meant that Guy Bernard would immediately be disqualified from the game. If he had not stepped forward to help, he doubted whether the opponent could survive half an hour. In this situation, Guy Bernard
It is obviously impossible for De to walk back by himself.
Just when the patrol member was hesitating, Albert, who was hidden under the magic of disillusionment, had left quietly.
He stuffed a large amount of Aliote's leaves into Guy Bernard's mouth, believing that the unlucky guy would laugh wildly in a few hours. As for whether Guy Bernard would laugh himself to death, Albert
Te is not worried at all, the patrols around will definitely send people back.
This means that Guy Bernard will be disqualified from the competition.
In fact, Albert's guess was right.
The patrolman waited in the distance for a moment, but still didn't see Guy Bernard stop laughing wildly, so he knew that he couldn't ignore it.
In order to prevent Guy Bernard from having an accident, he still stepped forward to help and sent the man back for treatment.
Guy Bernard, who was originally confident about winning the final championship, was eliminated from the competition. President Bernard looked gloomy and scary after seeing his grandson being sent back.
However, he was the one who could become the president after all, and he quickly controlled his emotions.
"Someone violated the rules of the game and tried to use despicable methods to win the championship." President Bernard said softly, "This is not a good sign. We should curb this bad trend."
Guy Bernard was quickly cured by a pharmacist using the molasses of the heartbreak bug, but he didn't know what happened, let alone who attacked him.
His face looked ugly because he realized that he had been tricked and ruthlessly eliminated.
The championship dream was shattered just like that.
This drove Guy Bernard almost crazy.
The referees gathered together to urgently discuss how to deal with this matter.
Under normal circumstances, those who are eliminated can only consider themselves unlucky.
But Guy Bernard is the grandson of President Bernard, and it is obviously impossible for the other party to accept such a result.
"Don't worry, we will find the culprit. Just check the contestants' wands and you will soon be able to find out who attacked you."
"As for your situation." President Bernard cleared his throat and said, "After negotiation by the referee panel, you will be given an extra chance. You can now use the collected raw materials to brew a magic potion."
Not everyone agrees to allow Guy Bernard to continue playing, because it is undoubtedly unfair to others, and there is no such precedent in history.
The only thing President Bernard could get was to let him use the existing raw materials to brew the potion. He believed that his grandson should have already collected the raw materials.
Guy Bernard couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as he was not eliminated immediately, he would still have a chance. Moreover, he had indeed collected the materials, and they were enough to brew two magic potions.
However, when he opened his satchel and took out the collected ingredients, the expression on his face suddenly froze, because the ingredients for the potion he originally prepared were inexplicably missing two types, and these two ingredients just made the ingredients he originally prepared less.
Neither potion can be brewed.
Guy Bernard's face was extremely pale, his body shook slightly and he almost fell down.
"are you OK."
"That bastard touched my medicine box and took away several potion ingredients." Guy Bernard put his hand over his heart and gritted his teeth.
The process from despair to hope to despair was so exciting that it overwhelmed his young heart.
President Bernard obviously also noticed the condition of his grandson, and his expression suddenly became extremely ugly. He understood what Guy Bernard meant.
It's over, everything is over.
President Bernard sat down on the armchair and felt that the other referees around him were looking at him very strangely, as if they were mocking him for trying so hard and finally failing.
He knew that he would soon become the joke of the whole circle.
It's all the fault of the culprit.
I'm not having a good time, and you can't have a good time either.
President Bernard swore in his heart that he would disqualify that bastard from participating.
