Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

But the reality was somewhat unexpected.

Lin Xia simply returned to the auditorium after her run and announced at the Hufflepuff table that she needed 10 volunteers.

Hufflepuff students immediately flocked to sign up.

Not only Hufflepuff, but students from the other three houses also rushed to sign up without knowing what the experiment would entail.

As a result, they received 300 resumes on that very day!
This astonishing quantity left even the Weasley twins speechless.

George pinched his cheek and said in an exaggerated voice, "I'm not seeing things, am I? When did our developed medicine become so popular that people are scrambling to be test subjects!"

Fred exclaimed in astonishment, "I don't know George, but I've observed that they don't even know what the experiment is about."

Lin Xia just said she needed a few testers, and people flocked to sign up!

“George, I’m thinking about something terrifying. If they knew they were experimenting on the potions we were developing, would they still be so eager to do it?”

Fred thought for a moment, then shook his head: "George, there's no need to worry. Regardless of whether it's a potion we developed or not, it's all under the name of Lin Xia's laboratory."

As soon as Lin Xia said it, the students would scramble to get at her.

At that moment, George and Fred deeply felt the benefits of fame and fortune.

Just by being labeled as a product of Lin Xia's laboratory, so many students signed up without even looking at it.

This is the power of fame and fortune!
The Weasley twins suddenly understood why so many wizards pursued fame and fortune.

The temptation is just too great, too great.

But the twins' surprises didn't end there.

It wasn't just the students who were interested in the [Inspiration] potion; even the school's professors were intrigued by it, including Lupin, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

They were quite familiar with Lu Ping, a professor who was a bit serious in class but very amiable after class.

If he discovers a student doing something prohibited, he will help cover it up, unlike Professor Snape, that old raven, who would just stand by and sullenly deduct points.

So the Weasley twins decided to take the initiative and approached Professor Lupin, asking him why he was interested in the potion.

Professor Lu Ping was in his office, writing something with his head down.

Upon closer inspection, one can also see various methods and techniques for resisting attacks from dark magic; he was preparing his lesson.

Upon hearing their purpose, Lupin looked at the two red-haired students before him, who resembled elves and looked exactly alike, and asked in return:

"Why would you ask this question? Are you not confident in the [Inspiration and Creativity] potion you created?"

George shook his head: "No, we are very confident in the potions we make. We just didn't expect them to be so popular even before they were released and were still in the experimental stage."

Fred added, "This is quite flattering, as we've never been treated like this before at Hogwarts."

George concluded, "It all felt like a beautiful dream I never wanted to wake up from."

Lupin smiled and said, "I think you haven't figured out how powerful the potions developed based on the Billywig bug are."

The prevailing opinion in the wizarding world is that Ravenclaw's crown is made primarily of Billy Wiggles, which is why it can resonate with others' thoughts.

Simply by wearing this crown, a fool can instantly become a wise person.

You developed a drug using the Biliwig beetle as a raw material; this would naturally attract attention if word got out, and more importantly…

Professor Lu Ping paused for a moment, then said meaningfully, "With Lin Xia endorsing you, it means that this potion is not just a gimmick product; it must have some efficacy."

"Lin Xia's laboratory has developed so many research products, each of which has had some impact on the wizarding world. Therefore, I believe your potion will surprise me, and I can't wait to try it."

Professor Lupin's reasoning was very reasonable and immediately appeased the Weasley twins.

But when the twins returned to the Gryffindor common room, they felt something was amiss.

George belatedly remarked, "Isn't Professor Lupin's reasoning a bit too official?"

Fred thought for a moment and nodded.

"He wasn't telling the truth, but anyway, everyone really likes the potion we developed."

The two quickly stopped dwelling on the matter.

George said, "Let's quickly put together the research report, and once it's tested without any problems, we'll show it to Professor McGonagall immediately. We should try to finish it by the end of the month; we can't delay any longer."

Fred thought so too, and the two happily continued to work overtime, staying up all night to write their papers and reports.

On the other side, after the twins left, Professor Lu Ping took out a wooden carving from his drawer.

This was a gift from his former best friend.

Other students only signed up to be volunteers because of Lin Xia's reputation, but he was different.

He learned through some means that Lin Xia was going to test a magic potion derived from the Billywig worm.

This potion has a slight mind resonance effect, which can uncover memories hidden deep in people's minds and ignored in ordinary times within a few minutes to a dozen minutes.

Lupin had a vague feeling that he had forgotten something important, but he just couldn't remember it.

Following his intuition, he decided to sign up for the trial of the [Inspiration and Creativity] potion.

"I hope this experiment won't disappoint me." Lupin lowered his head and reached out to stroke the wooden statue, which already had many slight signs of wear.

"No matter what, I have to find that missing memory. I have a feeling it will be a key, and everything I thought before might have been wrong..."

-

Lin Xia received over 300 resumes. Yes, after the news spread, more students continued to send their resumes the next day, wanting to join this volunteer research project.

Lin Xia's laboratory has sought out test subjects more than once, and the benefits for test subjects have long been known.

With Lin Xia around, the students' physical safety can be guaranteed. If Lin Xia can't handle the situation, they can seek help from the professors.

In addition, after the trial, you will receive 50 Galleons as compensation, and once the product is launched, you will receive a full-size product as a gift.

The formal package will not only include one gift, but two gifts will be given away.

Lin Xia had previously given away two wands as gifts when she was developing related magic wands.

The students treasured those wands and kept them carefully, refusing to sell them even for several times the price offered by others.

Although many resumes were submitted, Lin Xia wanted to inform them about the products they would be trying out. These products would be delivered to each registered student through Hogwarts' special bird mail delivery channel.

Some students knew they were going to be experimenting with a potion, nominally a product of Lin Xia's lab, but actually a research product made by the Weasley twins. These students hesitated and chose to give up.

But most students, seeing that it was a product that Lin Xia's lab was willing to promote under its own name, rushed to buy it without hesitation.

The Weasley twins may be infamous, but Lin Xia's lab is reliable!
Between Lin Xia and the Weasley twins, they chose Lin Xia first.

If any problems arise with the research products they are taking, they will contact Lin Xia immediately.

In the morning, Lin Xia sent the message out via a little bird, and by noon she had received more than a dozen rejection letters and apology letters.

When the next morning arrived, Lin Xia looked at the 200 resumes that had been screened and hesitated, which was unusual for her.

All of the students in these 200 resumes are in good health. Some have excellent grades, while others have average or even poor grades.

Lin Xia thought for a moment and handed all 200 resumes to the Weasley twins, letting them decide which candidates to choose.

As a qualified and mature researcher, it's time for him to develop his own product testing mindset.

The twins were even more shocked than Lin Xia when they saw the thick stack of resumes she handed them.

George couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Are you sure? So many people want to try our potions. Don't they know we developed them?"

Lin Xia said definitively, "I'm sure, I've already sent them a letter to report it."

Although it was launched under the name of my lab, the product was developed by you.

"Your product passed my lab's testing, so I'm willing to endorse it. After the trial period, it will be quickly launched to the market."

George and Fred looked at each other, and he felt that they were now surrounded by happiness!

Lin Xia smiled and said, "Pick out the list as soon as possible so I can notify them to come for the experiment."

The twins were very efficient; they submitted the list to Lin Xia by noon, in just one morning.

They selected a total of 10 participants, including three high-achieving students, three average-achieving students, and four students with very poor grades.

Lin Xia glanced at the list and didn't say much. She then used a little bird to send them a message, informing them to come to the private laboratory on the second floor the next day for testing.

They were assured that the experiment would be safe, and that the entire medical team and professors of Hogwarts would be there to help them should any accidents occur.

This is something that other laboratories cannot guarantee; only Lin Xia's laboratory can.

Because most of her research products are distributed through the university, she has established a close cooperative relationship with the university, which is why she receives such special treatment.

The Weasley twins' experiment was progressing rapidly, with students using their evening study time to come to the lab and take the [Inspiration] potion.

The surrounding environment is decorated in a warm and inviting way. Although it doesn't make students feel as warm as if they were at home, the comfort level is still quite good.

Besides its beautifully decorated environment, the room is also filled with many books.

The books varied in difficulty. After taking the potion, they had to read books of different difficulty levels one by one and then write down their thoughts.

According to the Weasley twins, taking the potion of "Inspiration" would make one's mind more invigorated, clearer, and able to uncover knowledge hidden deep in one's memory, while also accelerating the speed at which one absorbs knowledge.

The wings of the Billywig cricket can resonate.

The potion that adds wings works on high-frequency resonance in the mind, making it easier to enter a state of "focus on oneself" and not be disturbed by external mixed information.

So how do we determine this state of focused self-attention?

The Weasley twins believed that the speed at which knowledge was acquired could be clearly judged, which is why they used this testing method.

Because this was their first product launch and their first test, Lin Xia, Draco, Hermione, and other odd jobs were all present to observe the test.

Mikel observed the test subjects from the sidelines and noticed that they all lit up after taking the potion.

He couldn't help but think to himself: First of all, this potion must taste great. It won't make you frown, but rather make you want to keep drinking it.

Secondly, after finishing their drinks, these people picked up the books that were placed to the side and began to read.

When you first start reading books that are easy to understand, you can't really see anything; you just feel that they read faster.

Even so, you can already feel the difference.

Because before these people read the books, outstanding students like Lin Xia had also read them and tested their speed.

These test takers were not top students; many were average or even poor students. Yet, their reading speed was no slower than that of these top students!
Mick felt a chill run down his spine.

If you can read that fast, you can also absorb knowledge very quickly.

It goes without saying that once this potion hits the market, it will absolutely be a bestseller in the magical world.

Putting aside the distant future, at least the students at Hogwarts would definitely love this potion.

Moreover, this potion can be taken continuously, and as long as no more than three bottles are taken, the side effects are controllable.

After taking several bottles consecutively, you can take them again after a week.

For some wizards who aren't in a hurry, being able to enter a state of high-frequency mental resonance for at least half an hour each week to engage in deeper thinking and research is already quite impressive.

Mikel believed that this potion, as a supplementary potion, was far superior to other energizing potions on the market.

Those potions only served to refresh the mind; they didn't actually help the wizards enter a state of better concentration.

After a two-hour test, the wizards all performed well when reading books of low difficulty.

They also perform well when reading challenging books, though not as well as when reading easier ones.

Mikel was relieved.

This potion, while capable of bringing one to a certain state of mental resonance, depends on the individual's abilities and the extent to which they can achieve that state.

It's not like Ravenclaw's crown, which can turn a fool into a genius, but it can help ordinary wizards unleash their potential and reach the pinnacle of their abilities.

Three hours after each test subject took the potion, no obvious side effects were observed, and their mental state was excellent.

Some test subjects even requested to continue taking the medication, and the Weasley twins were about to agree, but Lin Xia then said:

"Observe for a week first. Once we confirm that there are no obvious side effects after the first dose, we will increase the dose to two bottles in the next experiment, observe for another week, and finally increase it to three bottles."

"We need to study not only the maximum number of doses, but also the side effects of overdosing."

Lin Xia looked at the experimenters and nodded, saying, "You've worked hard during this time. We will give you a certain amount of compensation for each experiment."

The testers all shook their heads, quickly saying, "It's nothing," "It's alright." (End of Chapter)
