Chapter 187 A belated mission
The day after receiving the apology letter from the Ministry of Magic, Albert quietly went to the Room of Requirement to retrieve the gold card and send it back to Huttok.
After Hutok clarified the matter for him, continuing to keep the gold card would be a problem.
The moment he picked up the gold card, Albert accidentally looked in a certain direction. He put the gold card into the pocket of his robe and slowly walked to the right. His eyes fell on an old, blistered surface. On the cabinet, he slowly raised his head and looked at the top of the cabinet. He couldn't help but squint his eyes. There was a bust of a wizard covered with pockmarks, and on his head was a dusty old hairband. There was... an old faded crown-like thing.
Standing blankly in front of the old cabinet, he vaguely heard the whisper from the crown again. His raised hand froze in place, then slowly retracted it, and quickly turned around and left.
After leaving the Room of Requirement, Albert stared at the gold card in his hand and murmured in a low voice: "This memory should be enough!"
He put the gold card in a prepared envelope, and then sent it to the original owner Hutok through the school's owl.
As for, why not your own owl?
There is no other way, Sheila is still on the way to deliver the letter.
Looking at the owl flying away with the gold card, Albert took a deep breath. This matter was finally over, and the original deceptive mission of picking up gold was finally completed.
When Albert was about to receive the task, he suddenly found that there was an extra task on his panel.
The struggle of underage wizards.
Over the years, Ministry of Magic traces have occasionally made errors. It is forbidden to abuse the Ministry of Magic but never admit the mistakes of the Ministry of Magic and itself. Use your way to make them realize that they are wrong and apologize or pay the price. Let them understand that even if they have no power, they do not have much words. Underage wizards who have no rights can still express their dissatisfaction in other ways.
Reward: 3000 experience, Dolores Umbridge's favorability -10.
Albert stood outside the owl loft and muttered to himself: "It's really strange, why is this task triggered at this time? And as soon as it is triggered, the task is completed."
"Maybe it's because I returned the gold card." Albert guessed the reason in his mind. He walked down the stairs. As soon as he returned to the castle and came to the foyer, he found that a new message appeared on his task panel. Task.
Thanks from the Potions Master.
The gold membership card is very important to Potion Master Hutok. He is very happy that you can return the gold membership card as agreed, and that you and your integrity have been recognized by the other party.
Reward: 100 experience, 1 skill point, Hutok's favorability +5, randomly obtain a skill from the mission target, and reward items: a bottle of elixir.
Albert, who had just stepped into the auditorium, was also stunned. He did not expect that there would be a follow-up to this matter, and that the reward would be so rich.
Originally thought that the punching people's gold was not ambiguous, it was just the beginning.
However, Albert was still a little curious about what would happen if he returned the gold membership card directly to Hutok from the beginning.
Get a Galleons?
Albert has a feeling that usually the rewards for more difficult tasks will be better.
However, this time, I really made a profit. I spent so much time and energy on this matter.
However, how could Hutok receive his own owl letter so quickly?
It only takes ten minutes at most to get here from the Owlery, even if you are in a daze for a while on the way.
Is he nearby?
Hettok is waiting for his owl in Hogsmeade?
Albert felt that this was the only possibility.
It seems that the golden card is more important than Albert expected.
Albert has no plans to receive the reward for the underage wizard's resistance now, and it is not a good thing for Dolores Umbridge to have a decrease in his favorability.
However, he directly received the gratitude of Shijin Bumo and the potion master.
Then, he found a place to sit down in the auditorium, took out the small book in his pocket and pretended to be reading something, and then started to flip through the skill panel to check the skill rewards obtained from Hutok.
This reward is a bit tricky, and which skill you get depends purely on luck.
Last time, Truman’s mission also had a similar reward. I don’t know what it came with. Anyway, Albert looked through the skill panel and couldn’t find it.
Albert found that he had a lot of skills, most of which were level one and level zero. It was not easy to find the long row of skills when he scrolled down.
After carefully flipping through it three times in a row, Albert finally discovered a skill he had never seen before, called Potion Mastery.
Hmm, that’s right, the skill is called Potion Mastery.
Actually, what drew Albert's attention to this skill was that it couldn't be upgraded with experience.
In his impression, skills that require skill points to be upgraded are very good.
This is really exciting news!
…
In the auditorium, several Gryffindor students were surrounding Albert, talking in low voices.
"What's wrong with Albert?" Angelina looked at the motionless Albert in confusion and asked the Weasley brothers beside her, "Is it possible that he has been hit by a full-body binding spell?"
When she was talking, Fred actually took the notes away from Albert's hand and waved his hand in front of his face, but Albert just didn't come back to his senses, sitting quietly like a real statue. Where, thinking about something.
"No, he was distracted intermittently." George took the small notebook in Fred's hand and put it upside down in Albert's hand.
“It looks so **** like this,” Angelina muttered.
"That's why Albert used a notebook to disguise himself." George explained with a smile: "I guess he was thinking about some important issue. However, you are right. If you don't know, it is really scary to see this scene. of."
"Even if you do this, he won't react at all!" Fred stretched out his hand to pull Albert's cheek, but the latter suddenly stood up and hit his head directly on Fred's chin, which was painful. Fred clutched his chin, squatting on the ground and groaning.
This impact was so strong that the expression on Fred's face was twisted together with pain.
Angelina's face twitched. To be honest, she was also startled by Albert's sudden movement to stand up.
Li Qiaodan looked at it and shook his head, "If you don't seek death, you won't die. Why don't you know?"
“Fred, are you still alive?” George asked gloatingly.
"It hurts."
“Isn’t this not dead?”
“We are twins, right?”
"right."
“Then let me share some of the pain with you.” Fred reached out to cover his chin and punched his twin brother suddenly.
“You bastard, you actually attacked me.”
The two men immediately began to struggle with each other.
