Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

These people originally came to Hogwarts out of love and care for the younger generation, just to encourage them. They never expected that this potion of inspiration would be so powerful, actually giving them inspiration.

But now a colleague says this potion is not simple and has even drawn some inspiration from it, so these people immediately take it seriously.

The attitude of these potion masters also influenced the attitude of others; in addition to the potion masters, some reporters also came to the scene.

But these journalists were just going through the motions and didn't expect the paper's release to cause such a stir.

But after observing the potion master's expression, they suddenly realized that this potion might not be so simple.

A fellow journalist was having a private conversation with other colleagues.

"Did you notice that the potion masters who came to listen to the lecture all looked very serious? They seemed to take this potion very seriously."

Another reporter nodded, "I noticed that too. At first, they looked very relaxed, but later, I don't know what they were talking about, but everyone became very serious."

Another reporter asked, "In that case, should we wait until after the press conference to interview them?"

Basically, once the interviews are done, I'll go back and write the corresponding articles, which will be published in the newspaper the next day.

The reporter who first brought up the matter said, "Wait and see. If they really take it seriously, these potion masters will ask some questions during the Q&A session."

As expected, after the complicated explanation, the Q&A session began, and a potions master immediately raised his hand to ask a question.

The Weasley twins were a little nervous, but they tried to keep a calm expression.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. They don't understand, that's why they're asking us questions!" The twins thought to themselves, and their expressions relaxed even more.

As a result, not only one Potions Master, but several other Potions Masters also raised questions.

Some of the questions, though simple, were presented from a novel perspective, prompting the Weasley twins to ponder them for a long time.

Some questions, though difficult, are actually quite easy to answer because the twins had both done related experiments.

Another potion master raised the question of whether an overdose could lead to an overlimit state, which the twins found very interesting.

George said, "The previous experiments with volunteers were all to test the stability and side effects of the potion, but we did not test the over-limit state."

Fred: "Give us some time, and we will refine the paper on this topic."

George thought for a moment and then said, "Although we haven't conducted any experiments yet, based on our understanding of the Inspiration Potion, once an overdose is taken and the user enters an overlimit state, the state won't last long and may not allow the wizard to get what they want."

Furthermore, it may trigger a severe rejection reaction, potentially rendering the user unable to take the potion again, as the body will completely lose its ability to respond to its effects.

Having answered all the Potions Master's questions, the press conference came to an end.

It was over for the students, but it was far from over for George and Fred, as the reporters who came gave them a warm interview.

The interview alone took an hour and a half!

If the twins hadn't been thinking about their family, the interview might have gone on for even longer.

George and Fred barely escaped the clutches of the reporters, greeted their parents, chatted with their brother for a while, and then saw the family off from Hogwarts before returning to the laboratory.

In the lab, the two energetic brothers collapsed onto the sofa and let out a long sigh of relief.

George said, "Holding press conferences is exhausting. I hope I'll never have to be this tired again!"

Fred replied, "I was a little nervous this time because I had no experience. I'll be more comfortable with it once I get used to it."

For example, those reporters who pestered us today—next time I won't give them so much interview time. It's all our fault for being inexperienced; we agreed to everything without setting a time limit.

George shrugged: "There weren't many reporters today, at least not as many as at Lin Xia's press conference. I thought they were just interviewing us out of politeness, but who knew they were all so excited, as if we had invented something amazing."

Fred was also puzzled by this.

What were those reporters thinking, or did they receive some information that even the two of them didn't know about?

Lin Xia didn't go into her own laboratory; instead, she sat in the common lounge, flipping through the blueprints for the alchemical glasses.

These magical runes are too complex and require a high level of mental strength.

Without professional training and relevant knowledge, watching for just ten seconds or so will make you feel dizzy.

Therefore, Lin Xia was not worried at all that the data would be leaked if it was kept in the lab. Apart from Draco, who could only look at it for a minute, everyone else in the lab could only last for a dozen seconds.

Draco would not look at her things without her permission.

Lin Xia heard the twins' complaints and a thoughtful look flashed across her eyes.

"I can probably guess what the reporters are thinking. Have you noticed that those potion masters are very interested in the inspired potions you've developed?"

The Q&A session was originally just a formality, but the potions masters asked very insightful questions, and they discussed in detail the advantages and disadvantages of your potions.

George and Fred nodded and said in unison, "They gave us a lot of inspiration about how to improve our potions!"

Lin Xia suddenly remembered the scene she had glimpsed when her ability was activated.

In the scene, George and Fred improve the potion of inspiration many years later.

She asked calmly, "Now that you have so many inspirations, will you be developing the Inspiration Potion a second time?"

George and Fred exchanged a glance, and George said, "We don't have that idea yet. I think the current version is the best we can do."

Fred nodded in agreement: "If we need to carry out further development, with our current capabilities, it will probably drag the battle on for a long time."

We don't want to invest in lengthy research and development; we'd rather research things that can be manufactured as quickly as possible.

Lin Xia smiled and said, "You guys have a clear understanding of your own research and development capabilities. However, the projects we are currently researching, apart from the 'Ghost Talk Candy' which might be able to be developed quickly, the other projects related to mental power are all very long-term processes."

The Weasley twins' eyes lit up with excitement at the mention of this.

George couldn't wait to announce a new finding from their research last night.

"I think I've found the sixth precious key to the recipe for the 'Ghost Talk Candy'!"

Fred said with great enthusiasm, "With the addition of this recipe, the Liar's Tale Candy can be made into a rougher version that can already achieve the main function we want."

George added, "There aren't enough side effects from lying yet, but as long as the big picture doesn't go wrong, it's easy to make up for the small things."

"This……"

Lin Xia didn't know what to say.

The topic of ghost stories is something Hermione is very interested in, and she puts a lot of thought into it.

But after all that research, it seems she's not as good as the Weasley twins who just mess around with it.

Lin Xia suddenly thought of something and asked, "How did you figure out the sixth material you need? Did you use a crystal ball to divine it again?"

The Weasley twins nodded without hesitation: "Yes!" George said with a smile, "Using crystal balls to divine materials is our specialty."

Fred: "And this method is also very efficient."

Lin Xia:......

Even she was tempted to use the crystal ball to divine the current research work, but she also knew that probably only the Weasley twins could do that.

After all, she does have the ability to predict the future, but she uses that ability for early warning and peeking into the future.

She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Hold the routine meeting tonight, and you can announce the progress at the meeting."

Oh, and remember to mention in the meeting how hard you've worked on your research, putting in day and night.

The twins were both shrewd; they exchanged a glance and instantly understood Lin Xia's meaning.

This was because they were afraid that some clever little witch would lose her composure if she saw how quickly and easily they were progressing.

The twins readily agreed: "We know how to behave."

Lin Xia glanced at them and said calmly, "You'd better actually know what you're talking about."

In the evening, the laboratory held its routine meeting.

The twins didn't say one thing and do another. At the meeting, they emphasized how hard they had worked to develop the sixth useful material, and that the lab must recognize their efforts and give them some rewards.

As the twins spoke, everyone else turned to look at Hermione.

Hermione's expression, however, was quite normal.

After the meeting, Draco chatted with Hermione for a while, cautiously asking, "Hermione, are you alright?"

Hermione rolled her eyes at Draco.

"What could possibly happen to me? The development progress of the 'Ghost Talk Candy' has been accelerated again. As the main person in charge of this project, I should be happy."

But those words sounded a bit unpleasant.

Hermione was silent for a moment, then said, "I just feel, well... maybe my feeling is wrong."

Everyone has their own research methods, and perhaps Weasley is best suited to using divination and prophecy for research.

While this research method is highly efficient, it relies too heavily on luck, and I will not use it; I have my own principles.

She smiled and said, "The sixth key ingredient for the 'Ghost Talk Candy' has been cracked. The next step is to refine it completely, which is actually my area of ​​expertise. I will develop it faster than them."

There are only a few key materials, but once it comes to detail, dozens more materials need to be added.

In this respect, divination skills are not as effective as Hermione's research methods.

Hermione is all about science and probability, while divination is all about metaphysics and luck.

Therefore, divination is easy to apply at some very critical and important junctures, but it is slow to be effective when it comes to tedious details.

the next day.

The Daily Prophet gave a detailed report on George and Fred's paper presentation, praising them as the second and third best researchers at Hogwarts since Lin Xia!

I don't know how these reporters managed to get exclusive interviews with some potion masters.

I remember getting those potion masters' evaluations of the Inspirational Potions, and I wrote those evaluations in the newspaper.

These potion masters all have a very high opinion of the Inspiration Potion!
These comments alone have attracted a lot of attention.

Many people have already written to Hogwarts, hoping they can release this potion as soon as possible, because they really want to buy it!
At the same time, Professor McGonagall also came to Lin Xia's door.

However, she received a response to the matter she had previously asked the professor.

Professor McGonagall first inquired about the lab's progress in developing the psychic potion, receiving a reply that the research was progressing slowly. After a moment's thought, she said:

"If I let you into the restricted book section, are you confident you can find books related to the study of mental power?"

Lin Xia shook her head: "Professor, you know better than I what the restricted book area is like. No one who goes in can be sure they'll find the book they want."

The forbidden book section reveals what suits a person better than what they want.

McGonagall sighed silently, then asked about the progress of the alchemical glasses research.

Lin Xia is currently studying the blueprints.

To be honest, there are quite a few magic runes involved, and just figuring out what those runes do is a bit overwhelming.

If you want to reduce the need for mental energy, you must understand the effect of each magic rune.

Only after understanding the whole picture can we begin to make improvements.

She has too many things to do, so she doesn't have much time to fully dedicate to deciphering the magic runes on the alchemical glasses; she has only deciphered one-third of them so far.

Therefore, it is difficult to achieve immediate results.

However, she has already written to the relevant research and development departments, and they have expressed their understanding.

Similarly, they are also doing their best in research.

Lin Xia replied, "The efficiency of modifying the alchemical glasses is slow, and there is still a lack of relevant knowledge. In fact, whether it is for the mental energy potion or the modification of the alchemical glasses, I have to frequently enter the forbidden book area."

McGonagall was silent for a moment, then said, "I'll apply for permission for you to enter the restricted area, but you can only enter a maximum of three times a week. Each time you come out, you'll have to be quarantined, so you'll be spending almost all your time in quarantine. Is that okay?"

Lin Xia raised an eyebrow: "I can still conduct research while in quarantine. It's just that I need to discuss some projects with other researchers. Will they be able to come to my quarantine location then?"

McGonagall nodded: "I will make the necessary arrangements, no problem."

Lin Xia nodded and said, "Then let me enter the restricted book area as soon as possible. Time waits for no one, and time is what I lack."

This sentence is true.

As she continued to cultivate, she felt her body's balance was severely disrupted due to her inability to advance to the next level, and she urgently needed to acquire more knowledge to complete the cultivation techniques for the Nourishing Life Realm.

For this reason, she has stopped cultivating recently, for fear that this imbalance will expand and get out of control.

Professor McGonagall was touched by what she heard; she felt that Lin Xia had truly sacrificed a lot for Hogwarts.

For a moment, she felt ashamed of her previous assumptions about Lin Xia.

If a student who cares so much about the school is possessed by an evil god, then she has nothing more to say. (End of Chapter)
