Albert picked up the package from Hagrid and returned to the common room with his roommates.
As soon as Lee Jordan got through the hole, he reached out to take the package that Albert had handed over, and asked puzzledly, "What are you going to do with these things?"
"Garlic Cross." Albert prepared to go back to the dormitory first.
"Will you make that thing?"
"Idiot, Albert has successfully made a protective bracelet." Fred looked at the two with an idiot look, "Why do you think he can't make a garlic cross?"
"Of course I know." George murmured.
No one wants to admit that he is a fool.
After the four hurried back to the dormitory, Lee Jordan immediately took off the garlic hanging to dry by the window.
"First of all, you must peel the garlic first, then make the garlic paste, soak it in alcohol, and let the allicin in the garlic melt into the alcohol." Albert recalled the production method and continued, "In the meantime, by the way, the tree is made of the protector. The cross is also thrown into it, and the process takes about...a day."
"Do whatever you want." Fred began to help peel the garlic.
George took out the mortar used in the potions class and prepared to mash the peeled garlic.
"Don't, I have a better way." Albert quickly raised his hand to stop George, and under the gaze of the three of them, he used a magic wand to deform a newspaper, turning it into a simple garlic press.
The three of them all approached, looking at Albert's use of Transfiguration in surprise, and asked in unison: "What is this?"
"Garlic press," Albert explained casually. He put the peeled garlic in a garlic press, directly pressed it into a garlic paste, and then put the garlic paste in a wide-mouth glass bottle.
"Good thing." George's eyes lit up and he quickly took over the garlic press from Albert, expressing his willingness to help crush the garlic.
Several people played for ten minutes and finally crushed all the garlic into garlic paste.
"What should I do next?" Lee Jordan asked, looking at the garlic paste in the jar.
"Pour alcohol into the garlic paste." Albert stirred with a glass rod to thoroughly mix the alcohol and garlic paste, and then sealed the jar.
"That's all right?" The three felt a little weird, it seemed simpler than they thought.
"Well, next, wait until tomorrow." Albert frowned slightly, smelling the smell of garlic in the air, "Next time, remember to remind me not to make these things in the dorm."
"I suddenly look forward to what kind of alchemy props will be produced this time." George was a little excited. This is the first time he has participated in the manufacture of alchemical props.
"Alchemy... props?"
Albert did not tell them in the end that the so-called garlic cross was not an alchemy tool at all.
Sure enough, don't break the children's innocent dreams.
The next steps are more cumbersome. You need to use warm water to melt the beeswax, add the alcohol separated from the garlic in the beaker, add an appropriate amount of olive oil during the period, and throw the cross that has been soaked in the alcohol for a day to cook together.
Of course, they dare not do these things in their dormitory. If the whole dorm smells like garlic, how can they sleep in the future?
The next day, Albert and his team moved the cauldron to the shore of the lake. The strong garlic smell spilled out of the cooking made several curious students nearby retreat.
"Whoever wears this thing on his body will probably never want to have a girlfriend in his life." Albert pinched his nose, and used a clamp to pick out the garlic-scented cross from the beaker.
"Is anyone willing to wear this kind of ghost?" Li Qiaodan was the first to doubt it.
"I'm even more curious if this thing is really useful?" Fred also didn't want to get too close.
"It's probably to smoke away the enemy with the smell." George also stepped back and muttered, "I didn't expect the smell to be so intoxicating."
This is also no way, who asked Albert to do it several times, condensing all the garlic they planted and the essence of the garlic brought by a few people.
"You said, should we give this thing to Filch?" Fred suggested, he hadn't forgotten to avenge Filch.
"Filch will definitely throw it away." Albert directly rejected Fred's proposal. If this kind of thing was given to Filch, the other party must have thrown it away, completely wasting everyone's labor.
"If you want to retaliate against Filch." Albert pointed to the other small bottle and said in a low voice, "The remaining beeswax also has a strong smell of garlic. You can apply it to the corner of Filch's office. I I'm sure it can give Filch an unexpected surprise."
"That's a good idea!" The twins' eyes lit up, and they quickly picked up the bottle and opened it, only to be choked by the smell of beeswax.
"Wait after the year-end dinner." Albert did not forget to remind.
"We know what to do." The twins looked at each other and laughed maliciously.
"Okay, pack things up, let's go to Hagrid."
"What do you want Hagrid for?" Fred and George asked warily.
"Of course it is to test whether the amulet we made can effectively expel dark creatures." Albert said of course. "Hagrid must know where to find dark creatures that are not dangerous."
"Oh, that's right." All three of them could understand.
After all, after the amulet is completed, it is natural to find someone to test whether it is effective.
Albert took out a rope woven with a unicorn tail and used it to pass through the hole reserved on the cross, and made it into a string of necklaces. "Who of you want to try it on?"
"Forget it!" George shook his head repeatedly.
"Do you want to kill us?" Fred couldn't help rolling his eyes at Albert.
Lee Jordan simply pretended that he didn't hear it.
Seeing the three shook their heads and refused, Albert was a little disappointed to put the garlic cross back into the wide-mouth glass bottle, and plug the bottle easily to isolate the thick garlic smell.
Packed the tools of the crime, the four of them walked towards Hagrid's cabin.
"What the **** are you doing?"
Hagrid, who was dealing with animal skins in front of the hut, could not help but wrinkle his nose and looked at them with disgust when he smelled the strong smell of garlic on the four people from a long distance.
"Garlic cross." Albert shook the wide-mouth glass bottle in his hand and asked with a smile: "The amulet we just finished, come to you to see what dark creatures can let us test the effect of the amulet."
"Garlic cross, what's that stuff?" Hagrid took the jar and opened it, sneezing several times with the smell of garlic spilling out of it.
"An amulet that smells of garlic can protect the user from sneak attacks by dark creatures."
"I don't know if I can protect the user from being attacked by dark creatures, but as long as you bring this stuff, I don't think any vampire will be willing to get close to you within ten steps." Hagrid couldn't help but vomit as he thought of himself The alcohol and beeswax previously sent to Albert, I have probably guessed what happened.
"Do vampires really hate the smell of garlic?" Albert asked curiously.
"Yes, garlic is as disgusting as a cesspit for vampires." Hagrid explained dryly. "However, I think even if it is not a vampire, it will be as far away as it can be. The taste is...very bad."
"Then... what about the dark creature?" Fred couldn't help asking.
"You don't want to bring this stuff into the woods, do you?" Hagrid stared at Brother Weasley warily. It is normal for him to have this kind of thought. Who would let the two guys in front of him often sneak in? Where's the forest.
"No, we don't want to go into the woods for the time being. It's too dangerous. The incident scared us enough last time." Fred quickly clutched his chest. He also secretly lifted his foot and kicked George next to him. The latter immediately understood , And quickly agreed to ensure that he would not enter the forest again.
Hagrid stared suspiciously at Fred and George, obviously not believing their assurance.
"I don't have any dark creatures here, but I know where they are, come with me!" As he said, Hagrid led the four along the edge of the forest towards Professor Kettlebo's cabin.
Professor Silvanos Kettlebo, who protects magical creatures, is temporarily living outside the Forbidden Forest, and the little babies he carefully raises also live here.
It is said that the protection of magical creatures in the school will also be conducted in a clearing near Professor Kettlebo's cabin.
When Hagrid brought Albert and several people over, Professor Keitelber was feeding the snake bird with Flobber caterpillars.
"Hagrid, what's the matter?" Professor Kettlebo asked, looking up.
"Oh, yes, there are a few students who made a talisman, hoping... I hope they can borrow your Grindillo to test the effect of the amulet." Hagrid glanced at the people behind Albert and said Said.
"Amulet? Doesn't it mean garlic?"
Professor Kettlebo looked at the few freshmen behind Hagrid, and he could smell a strong smell of garlic from far away.
"It's this amulet, Professor Kettlebo." Albert handed the bottle with the garlic cross to Professor Kettlebo.
I have to admit that this is a delicate artwork.
At least, it doesn't look ugly.
"Oh, my goodness!" Professor Keitelberg finally knew what was going on with the smell of garlic on several people. "Don't open it here. My little baby doesn't like the smell."
"Do you think it can protect me from being attacked by dark creatures?" Albert asked quickly.
"The effect is probably only average." Professor Keitelberg explained, "Some organisms do not like the taste of garlic, they will instinctively stay away from it, but this is not absolute."
"Can it be made from the branches of the Dharma Tree?"
"Yes, I think this thing might work for vampires, but... don't expect too much from others." Despite this, Professor Keitelberg lent them a Grindillo. As soon as Albert took the cross out of the bottle, the hapless Glindillo began to move away from Albert's garlic cross, which seemed to be smoked enough.
"Congratulations, this amulet almost fainted Grindillo." Hagrid pinched his nose and said angrily.
"Thank you, I didn't expect this to happen." Albert couldn't help but sigh. Now he finally knows what the so-called amulet is.
"What are you going to do with this stuff?" Fred couldn't help asking.
"I'm going to make a treasure map, clip the treasure map into a book in the library, and let the students who find the treasure map dig the treasure." Albert had already figured out how to deal with this stuff.
"Now, this amulet is called'Vampire Retreat'." Albert announced publicly, "It is the legendary amulet that can protect himself from vampires."
After hearing this, several people couldn't help but twitch.
Albert was able to say such things on the face of the latter ~ www.mtlnovel.com~ although this kind of amulet can indeed drive away vampires.
"I suddenly looked forward to the fact that the guy who found the treasure map, after cracking the treasure map and digging into the treasure, discovered the legendary necklace that could protect himself from vampires. It was actually such a thing. I don't know it will be revealed. What expression." George suddenly felt very funny.
"I found that you are really horrible and funny." Fred murmured, "However, I like it. I just don't know if that guy will faint with anger after finding the treasure."
"I'll also help." Lee Jordan said excitedly, "it's a treasure hidden by all generations of students at Hogwarts. I think many people will definitely be interested in it."
Hagrid was dumbfounded when he heard it beside him. He had never thought that Albert was going to dig a hole for the students in the school and punish them severely.
Think about the day when I was borrowing a book, I found there was a treasure map in the mezzanine. Even if I didn't believe it all, I would try to explore whether I could find the treasure.
