Hogwarts: I can load entries infinitely!
Chapter 281
Devereaux's voice was calm but defiant.
"Who else didn't hear clearly? Do you want me to repeat this special recipe?"
He looked around, his eyes like knives, scanning the representatives in other booths one by one.
Sure enough, he captured the subtle expressions on some people's faces - greed, excitement, and even a hint of joy.
After all, no matter how much Devereaux disparaged the potion, its value was undeniable.
Something classified as a special potion by the Ministry of Magic, even if it has only a little bit of uniqueness, is enough to arouse these people's strong interest.
"How dare you!!!"
Karkaroff's roar broke the brief silence.
His face was livid, and the veins on his forehead popped out. He was obviously completely angered by Devereux's words.
He whipped out his wand and pointed it at Devereux, moving as fast as a poisonous snake spitting out a message.
Lupine reacted very quickly and immediately stood in front of Devereaux. At the same time, he drew out his wand and confronted Karkaroff.
Although his movements were a bit nervous, he did not hesitate, and his posture to protect Devereaux was extremely firm.
"Put your wand down!"
Lupine's voice was much deeper than usual, with an undoubted dignity in his tone.
Karkaroff sneered, his eyes full of contempt.
"You? A teaching assistant? A small role serving tea and water to the professor. How dare you point a wand at me? Get out of here!"
Lupine's hand holding the wand trembled slightly, but his eyes were extremely firm.
He ignored Karkaroff's humiliation and straightened his back like an impenetrable wall.
Humiliate him?
It doesn't matter.
He has long been used to it.
But if the other party points a wand at Devereaux, that's a completely different story.
Who is Devereux?
He was Lupine's savior!
He was the one who developed the lycanthropy confounding agent that allowed him to remain sane on the night of the full moon!
If Karkaroff dares to pose any threat to Devereux, then Lupine will never back down even if he fights for his life!
He, Lu Ping, would never agree! ! !
"to be honest,"
Devereaux patted Lupine on the back to reassure him. He continued, with undisguised sarcasm in his tone.
"Compared with the popular polyjuice potion on the market, your magic potion only has the advantage of long duration. Unfortunately, the cost of this advantage is that the raw materials are difficult to obtain, the brewing process is cumbersome, and the cost is ridiculously high. If it were me, I would be embarrassed to show it off."
He paused and glanced at Karkaroff sharply.
"It really opened my eyes that the Ministry of Magic would choose this 'special potion'. I wonder if they were impressed by someone's 'special recommendation', or if they didn't do market research at all?"
Karkaroff's face was livid, and the hand holding the wand was trembling slightly.
He glared at Devereaux and gnashed his teeth.
"you!!!"
The other representatives attending the meeting were all dumbfounded. This child looked to be only about ten years old, right?
Even if he directly announced the secret formula in front of everyone, he actually criticized his potion invention in front of Karkaroff. This is really too courageous! !
Mrs. Maxim stood not far away and watched the conflict between the two parties with amusement. The little girl at her feet who was running around just now also looked over curiously.
Almost immediately, the surrounding air seemed to solidify.
Several Durmstrang students and teachers in black robes quickly came closer and stood behind Karkaroff, with serious expressions and hostility in their eyes.
On the Hogwarts side, Lupine still stood in front of Devereaux, his wand raised steadily and his eyes firm.
Devereaux, on the other hand, looked relaxed and content, and even had a faint smile on his lips, as if he didn't care about the tense situation at hand at all.
These professors and students have at most one purple entry on their bodies, and their strength can be said to be extremely weak. They can be knocked down by just waving their hands.
The atmosphere is tense, and conflicts between colleges seem to be on the verge of breaking out.
But just then!
"Karkaroff!"
A loud and majestic voice came from not far away, breaking the deadlock.
There was undoubted power in the voice, which instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone looked around and saw a middle-aged man walking quickly down from the small platform.
He had meticulously styled short gray hair and wore dark, exquisite wizard robes. His face was full of seriousness.
His eyes were like sharp knives, piercing directly towards Karkaroff.
"You are the principal of Durmstrang!"
His voice was loud and cold, with a chilling pressure.
"What does it mean to point a wand at the potion representative of Hogwarts?"
Karkaroff's face became even more ugly, but he didn't reply immediately.
"Now!"
The man continued, his tone more stern.
"Put your wand down! Both of you! Or I'm going to call an Auror."
His sharp eyes flickered between Lupine and Karkaroff, obviously dissatisfied with the behavior of both parties.
Lupine hesitated slightly, but put down his wand first.
Although his expression was unwilling, he still remained calm.
Karkaroff seemed even more reluctant.
He gave Lupine a hard look, and finally put his wand away with a sullen expression.
His hand was still holding the handle of the staff tightly, obviously not completely letting go of his hostility.
The middle-aged man gave Karkaroff a cold look, then turned to Devereux and Lupin.
His eyes were a little scrutinizing, but more of a strict way to maintain order.
Just when the atmosphere eased a little, Karkaroff suddenly sneered, his tone full of sarcasm.
"Oh, Barty Crouch, you really know how to pick a time to show up."
"Dear British Ministry of Magic, Director of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department!"
