Chapter 26 professor Binns

At 8:00 p.m.

Inside the History of Magic classroom.

Professor Binns stood at the podium, half-closing his eyes, rocking back and forth on his tiptoes while lecturing.

Cedric scribbled furiously below the stage.

However, he wasn't doing History of Magic homework; he had long memorized the dry history. He was researching antidotes to dumbfounding potions.

More importantly.

Professor Binns was a ghost.

He had a faint awareness of living students, and could even be startled by students who asked him questions.

Many students took advantage of History of Magic class to chat or catch up on sleep.

Cedric couldn't earn any credits from it.

He could only aim to ace the exam and see if he could pass this test.

"However, what exactly are dumbfounding potions?"

In Cedric's view.

Dumbfounding potions are fundamentally different from Muggles.

Although they can't perform magic, they won't cast the Muggle-Repelling Charm, won't turn Hogwarts into ruins, and won't see ghosts like Nearly Headless Nick.

In other words.

Muggles possess certain qualities that Muggles lack, but these qualities haven't fully developed.

So, they couldn't generate magical power within them.

Cedric now had two ideas: one was to pursue recuperation and see if there were any herbs that could promote the secondary development of this trait.

The second.

Is to use current medical techniques.

To artificially create this trait, not aiming to make them wealthy, just to enable them to perform everyday spells.

Spells like cleaning, repairing, and summoning would suffice.

At least this way, the probability of them being discovered as Muggles would be very low.

"When it comes to herbs, Professor Sprout's template is quite useful!"

Cedric switched to Professor Sprout's character template card:

Template Card: Pomona Sprout

Talent: Herbology (Can upgrade this talent to S-level) Advanced Wizard (Magic +5 points, maximum 75 points.)

Special Talent: Herb Resistance (Due to long-term contact with herbs, your body has gained some resistance, possessing a certain resistance to any negative states caused by herbs.)

Bucket List:

First Item: Favorite Professor, House (Please become a satisfactory Hufflepuff student.)

Completing this bucket list will upgrade the Herbology talent to SS-level.

Second Item: Knowledge Spread (Promote the developed dragon dung fertilizer.)

Completing this bucket list will allow this template card not to occupy a template card slot.

Third Item: Glorious Hufflepuff (During a student's enrollment, help Hufflepuff win three honors.)

Completing this bucket list will activate a new special talent: Herb Intuition.

Herb Intuition (Due to constant interaction with herbs, when you see or touch a certain type of herb, you will intuitively gain one of its uses based on experience, thoroughly understanding its potential, with a high chance of uncovering abilities that have not been explored.)

"Special talents like this are only possessed by monsters!"

"This kind of special talent, not even Professor McGonagall or Professor Snape has appeared, but I saw it on Professor Sprout!"

Cedric pondered over Herb Intuition for a while.

If he could claim this reward, it would be very helpful for developing Muggle drugs and magical pharmacology.

But even if he could win the House Cup twice in two years.

"Then Quidditch is very important!"

Cedric hadn't considered Quidditch before.

Because before Harry Potter came, there had never been a first-year student joining the Quidditch team.

And with Dumbledore's habit of awarding points randomly.

It wasn't guaranteed that he could win the House Cup during his school years. So he had to complete the glory within these two years and obtain Professor Sprout's special reward.

When calculating house points before.

He even excluded the 100 points for winning the Quidditch Cup.

But if considering glory, this Quidditch Cup was the only glory apart from the House Cup.

"While the first flying lesson hasn't started yet!"

Cedric quickly made up his mind.

[Talent Point -2.]

[Consumes 2 points to upgrade from S-level to SS-level.]

[The S-level talent Quidditch is upgraded to the SS-level talent Quidditch, awakening a new skill: Wings of the Wind, gaining 1 charm value.]

"Leveled up and gained charm points!"

Cedric's eyes lit up.

Now he had 4 charm points and 3500 experience points in total.

Not only could he instantly cast a spell.

But he could also increase the power of his magic by 40%, making him unbeatable for at least junior wizards.

First-year invincibility has been achieved.

However, such upgrades still had a small risk.

[Special Note: The upgrade of this talent from A to S level is provided by Professor McGonagall's task template card. Once completed, this talent will drop to S level.]

"There's no other way."

"After all, I must show my skills in the next flying class, otherwise I won't have a chance to join the Quidditch team early, or even at all!"

Cedric felt that relying solely on this wasn't very secure.

"I need more confidence to help me break through these limitations, including the recognition of young wizards!"

After careful consideration.

In order to increase his chances of successfully joining the Quidditch team.

Cedric took the initiative to demonstrate that thing in the Transfiguration class the next day!
