Chapter 234: Thought wandering

As he spoke, Dagworth handed the test tube of Bafe's brain-stimulating agent to Albert, who took it, wiped the edge of the bottle, and also took a small sip. The moment he swallowed the medicine, Albert felt his brain was relaxed and his thinking was more active than ever before.

"How do you feel?" Dagworth noticed the change in Albert's expression and asked with a smile.

"My brain is very active." Albert closed his eyes and felt the changes in himself. "It feels a bit like taking a nootropic."

"Intelligence enhancer?" Dagworth shook his head. "Intelligence enhancers can only make the drinker's thinking clearer, but they can't make the person's mind more active, nor can they improve a person's memory in a short period of time. You will soon find that after drinking this stuff, your brain will become particularly flexible."

Dagworth was right. Albert could clearly feel that he was thinking more easily and remembering better than before.

The effect of this magic potion was amazing. Albert took out a notebook from his pocket and wrote down all the steps to make the Bafei brain-stimulating potion.

However, what puzzled him was that the "open your brain" task on the panel was not completed. It was obvious that he needed to use undiluted Bafe brain stimulant.

"Can I try that?" Albert raised his hand and pointed to the undiluted Bafe's Brain Stimulant.

"You are playing with fire. This is not fun at all." Dagworth suddenly got angry. "Even if I have confidence in the potion I brewed, I don't recommend you to take the risk. It's not worth the risk."

"It's worth it, and I have confidence in you." Albert winked at Dagworth and said seriously.

Dagworth fell into a brief silence. Although he was happy about Albert's trust, he took a deep breath and nodded, "Only this time. Once I find that you take such a risk again, I will no longer provide you with any help."

"Thank you, what's the dosage?" Albert grinned.

"One sip is enough, about one-third of the liquid in the test tube. Don't be too greedy." Dagworth glared at Albert. He really didn't like him taking risks.

It would be a huge loss if this genius was accidentally disabled. Even if taking undiluted Bafe brain stimulant could develop the human brain, it would not be worth it for Albert to take such a risk.

"I promise there won't be a next time." Albert patted his chest and promised. As for how credible this statement is, it is unknown.

"Wait until the effect of the medicine wears off before drinking it. You didn't drink much just now, and the effect will start to wear off in half an hour at most. Before that, let's talk about the formula of Bafe Brain Refresher." Dagworth began to enter the lecture mode.

To be honest, his teaching skills are worse than Snape's, with a bunch of professional terms that make people dizzy.

However, Albert was able to understand it. After all, he had a solid foundation in potions with the help of the panel, and after upgrading the Baffi Brain Refresher skill, he had some understanding of this potion. He also tried to come up with some potentially useful improvement plans, which made Dagworth want to regret it even more.

It would be fine if he was poisoned after drinking the potion. As long as he was here, Dagworth was confident that he could prepare the antidote in a short time.

But Bafe's brain stimulant is different. Drinking this stuff will damage the brain. If there is a problem with a person's brain, even if it is cured in the future, other problems may arise. He is really worried about Albert's situation.

However, Dagworth could also understand why Albert took the risk and Bafe's brain-stimulating agent. Smart people would not give up on becoming smarter, even though in his eyes it was not worth Albert's risk.

"How is it?" Dagworth asked nervously as he watched Albert drink the undiluted Buffy brain stimulant.

"Great!" Albert took a deep breath. The feeling was more than just excitement. The undiluted Bafe brain stimulant was several times stronger than the diluted one. Basically, as long as the brain was slightly active, he could easily find the answer or a solution to the problem.

"Nothing wrong?"

"No, let me think about it." Albert sat in the armchair, crossed his fingers, and prepared to think about some problems while the drug was taking effect.

Especially the parts that were not clear before.

At that time, I asked Professor Flitwick about spells and the key to Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets.

Dagworth looked at Albert, who was sitting in the armchair with his hands entwined, and was stunned. He didn't understand what was going on.

While Dagworth was still in a daze, Albert's thoughts had already turned several corners.

He realized that the question he had asked Professor Flitwick was wrong in itself, and Professor Flitwick might have discovered it.

Although Albert knew other languages, he had never actually cast spells in other languages. Moreover, the wizard's spells had little to do with English. Most of the spells came from Latin, which was used in ancient Rome.

However, Latin is basically no longer used in any country. Although many countries in Europe use languages that evolved from Latin, this ancient language has changed.

Of course, the language of wizards is not limited to Latin. Other languages can also be used. As Professor Flitwick said, the essence of magic is spells.

What about runes

The belief that these letters have some magical powers comes from Norse mythology, but there is no doubt that runes, Latin, and even Elvish have been used to cast spells.

The magic system is different, or some other reason

Perhaps, only if you truly master the ancient magic runes can you find the key to open the next door.

With the help of Bafe's brain-stimulating agent, Albert thought through a lot of things at once. When he opened his eyes again, he immediately took out a pen and quickly wrote down what he had just thought of in his notebook.

"it's over?"

Albert put away his notebook and saw Dagworth drinking milk tea next to him.

"Well, the effect is great, but relying on it too much can make people stupid." Albert picked up his teacup and took a sip. The milk tea was already cold.

"The brain still needs to move itself."

"I am very happy to hear you say that." Dagworth nodded with satisfaction and said, "There is one more thing I need to remind you. After drinking the undiluted Bafe Brain Wake-up Agent, you will feel very tired after the effect of the drug completely wears off. However, this is normal. I suggest you go back to the castle and rest now. Of course, you can also rest here. When you wake up, I will let Jera take you back to the castle."
