Capítulo 101: Chapter 101: Invitation to Snape
Lockhart was not surprised when he saw a request for more written in the notebook. After all, the other party had laid the groundwork before, talking about energy absorption efficiency and Slytherin's reasons. However, he couldn't let the Horcrux succeed so easily.
So he wrote unceremoniously: "This bottle of potion just now is enough to restore the magic power of an adult wizard. How much have you restored now?"
Meanwhile, Lockhart controlled his emotions, making himself very suspicious to trick the notebook. He even had the idea of storing the notebook away permanently if the answers in the notebook were not satisfactory to him and the cost was too high.
After the book finished its invasive mind-reading, a line of text appeared on the notebook explaining: "Sorry, Professor, because the absorption efficiency is low, you need 2 more bottles of potion to replenish the book to full energy. After the energy is fully charged, it can run for about 2 or 3 weeks. Later, maybe you can make a sacrifice to replenish the energy, which will further extend the time."
Seeing the words revealed in the notebook, Lockhart nodded with satisfaction. These were the bottom lines that emerged from his thoughts just now. So, he slowly wrote: "I can offer you another bottle, but I hope you can give me a good answer."
As he spoke, Lockhart took out a bottle of potion and poured it on the notebook. Soon, all the potion was absorbed by the notebook. Lockhart watched quietly as the answers to his three questions emerged in his notebook.
"The core of Apparition lies in the perception of space and the firmness of will."
"The improvement of wizard bloodline mainly relies on…"
Lockhart nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the large contents emerging from his notebook. As expected of Voldemort, who accepted Salazar Slytherin's inheritance, this knowledge is quite impressive.
Tuesday, Gryffindor Common Room
In the spacious lounge, students in twos and threes were sitting on sofas or chairs. Some were doing homework, some were reading, and some were discussing quietly with their friends. Among them, Hermione was sitting on the sofa next to her holding a book, reading with gusto. Not far away, Ron and Harry were playing wizard chess with great interest, moving the pieces back and forth, very happily.
Suddenly, click! Along with the flash and the sound of the shutter, a white light flashed. Colin Creevey, who was holding a camera, captured Harry Potter playing chess. Harry subconsciously reached out to cover his face but quickly put it down helplessly. Just three weeks into school, he had already been photographed dozens of times by this crazy photography enthusiast. The other party's attitude of admiration for him made him embarrassed to refuse, so he could only endure it.
"Colin, is there anything else? If nothing else, I will play chess with Ron," Harry turned to Colin and said helplessly.
Colin seemed unaware of Harry's helplessness and said excitedly: "Have you heard? Professor Lockhart's Duelling Club is recruiting members on Sunday. Do you want to join?"
"What?" Colin's topic immediately aroused Harry's interest, and Harry quickly asked: "Colin, where did you know?"
"I just saw it on the bulletin board." Colin was a little proud. "I saw it not long after it was posted. It said that the Duelling Club will be held on Sunday. Those who want to sign up can go to their house prefect. On Friday, the first batch of people to join the club will be given a list."
"Really?" Ron asked reluctantly. His brother Percy is the prefect of fifth year. He is usually more serious and always urges him to study and read. So he somewhat disliked communicating with Percy.
"Ron, let's go find Percy to sign up." After Harry heard this, he immediately thought of the prefect with whom he was closest - Percy Weasley.
"Okay!" Ron nodded and agreed awkwardly: "Let's invite Hermione too."
Soon, the three little Gryffindors and Colin went to find Percy to sign up. During this period, word of Professor Lockhart's Duelling Club spread throughout Hogwarts in just a few hours. No little wizard would reject the use of magic to fight. In particular, the young wizards of Gryffindor and Slytherin, who are active and want to pursue strength, are the most excited.
In addition, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, which has been responsible for teaching young wizards to resist dangers over the years, is very hard. This year, Professor Lockhart finally came. His lectures were very interesting, and he also held a duelling club. Instantly, the interest of many young wizards was ignited.
By dinner time, most of the short stories were spent discussing news about the Duelling Club. Professor Lockhart was once again the focus of discussion among the young wizards.
"Harry, do you think it's possible for me to join?" Hermione asked anxiously, looking at Harry who was having dinner next to her.
"Don't worry, Hermione, you are so smart, you will definitely be able to join." Harry comforted her beside him. However, Harry's comfort did not calm Hermione's anxiety, and her uneasiness could still be seen on her face.
Night, Snape's Office
"Lockhart, what do you want?" Snape looked indifferent and gazed at Lockhart in front of him with somewhat complicated eyes. But maybe the trading relationship between the two made his tone slightly gentler.
Seeing this, Lockhart said gently: "Snape, I would like to ask, when will the potion that can improve the bloodline be ready?"
Snape made a rough estimate and said, "It may take another two months." Then, he added: "If you can provide 4 tubes of the blood that was previously used as an accelerator, the time can be shortened to about half a month at the earliest."
Hearing this, Lockhart nodded and said, "Understood. I'll think of a way to get more blood later."
"If you still have extra blood on your hands, I can also buy it." When it came to blood, Snape couldn't help but say. He hoped to have as much of this accelerator-like material as possible in his hands. Generally speaking, the more precious the potion, the longer it will take to refine. Therefore, whether it is methods or materials that can shorten time, there is a strong demand for every potion master.
In response to Snape's request, Lockhart nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Snape, if I gain any next time, I will definitely give you a free tube."
Hearing this, the corners of Snape's mouth twitched upward slightly.
"But, Snape, I was hoping you could do me a favor." Before Snape could reply, Lockhart continued: "You should know that the Headmaster asked me to organize a duelling club, and I hope you can participate in it."
In response to Lockhart's request, Snape stared into Lockhart's blue eyes. At the same time, his memory returned to the night three days ago.
"Okay, I'll join you!"
