Hearing what Joseph Connie said, Yuan Changkong couldn't help but speak again: "This is impossible. I have clearly sent people to keep an eye on you. How could you possibly leave the magic house?!"

Hearing Yuan Changkong's words, Joseph Kony replied nonchalantly: "To be honest, I really have to thank that peer named Tachibana Uesugi! If he hadn't been around, I'm afraid it would not have been so easy for me to enter and exit South Iwo Jima freely!"

"However, although that fellow named Tachibana Uesugi looks good, his strength is really not to be praised! I still remember that when I cast the Imperius Curse on him, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets!"

Hearing what Joseph Kony said, Yuan Changkong couldn't help but take a step back and sat down in his seat.

Snape couldn't help himself at this time. He grabbed Joseph Connie's collar, pulled him in front of him, and asked sternly: "What on earth did you leave on that island?!"

Joseph Kony just smiled coldly and did not answer.

At this time, on the extinct volcano island used for the competition, three figures were moving forward cautiously. They were Wentworth, Emma Hughes and Takeza Uesugi.

Suddenly, a bee flew past the three people, but when it got close to them, the bee seemed to be frightened by something and quickly sped up, trying to get away from them.

At this moment, the bee accidentally touched a vine leaf. In an instant, several vines shot up into the sky. The fastest one wrapped the bee like a dumpling in an instant, and then shrank back.

The other vines that were slightly slower seemed unwilling to give up. They waved in the air for a few times before calmly retracting them.

Wentworth couldn't help swallowing when he saw this scene.

At this time, Emma Hughes beside Wentworth said bitterly: "This magic school potion tournament is so weird! If the fog when we first arrived on the island was to test our ability to respond, then what were those messy bugs for?"

Hearing what Emma Hughes said, Wentworth couldn't help but smile bitterly and thought of the scene just now.

At first, the three people just ran in panic, but they could not get rid of the insects behind them.

At this time, it was only with the reminder of Uesugi Takejaku that Wentworth remembered that he was clearly participating in the Potions Championship, not the mountain marathon!

So, the three of them had to divide the work and collect potions along the way while running. Finally, the three of them managed to make an insect repellent potion while running, and only then did they get rid of the endless pursuit of those insects.

Thinking of this, Wentworth sighed and said slowly:

"I think it should be a test of our stability when making potions...right?"

After hearing Wentworth's explanation, Emma Hughes couldn't help but sigh and said:

"However, I still want to thank you for not giving up on me, a burden! If it weren't for you, I might have taken that potion and quit the competition."

Hearing what Emma Hughes said, Uesugi Taketsu hurriedly said, "Emma, ​​we won't give up on you, right, Wentworth... Wentworth?!"

At this time, Taketsukuru Uesugi looked at Wentworth with some surprise, because Wentworth had no response to his call.

Seeing this, Uesugi Takezaki's first reaction was that this magical island was causing trouble again.

However, just as Uesugi Takeque was about to step forward to check on Wentworth, he saw Wentworth suddenly raise his hand, with a complicated expression on his face, and said:

As he spoke, Wentworth also took out his own bottle of potion that Snape had given him before he left, with a complicated look in his eyes.

Shangshan Zhuque looked at Wentworth and clearly felt that Wentworth's eyes seemed to be somewhat resentful! Emma Hughes on the side couldn't help but urge:

"What's the test? Speak up, Wentworth!"

Hearing Emma Hughes' urging, Wentworth slowly spoke, "If I'm not mistaken, this Magic School Potions Championship will test our ability to copy potion formulas and make potions based on finished potions!"

After hearing what Wentworth said, Emma Hughes and Taketsugi Uesugi looked confused.

Seeing this, Wentworth had no choice but to explain:

"In the beginning, we were all misled by Headmaster Dumbledore and Professor Snape! We all thought that the potion Professor Snape gave us was to save our lives. Once we used it, it meant that we had given up the competition. So, each of us immediately put away the bottle of potion in our hands."

After hearing what Wentworth said, Uesugi Taketsu asked stupidly, "Isn't that right?"

And Emma Hughes seemed lost in thought.

Wentworth looked at the Uesugi Taketori and explained calmly, "Yes, and no!"

"Everything Snape said is true, but he deliberately didn't tell us that the content of our competition this time is not about how to deal with various emergencies on this island. The content of this competition is actually to copy the bottle of potion in our hands!"

"Since Headmaster Dumbledore told us that when we encounter dangers that we cannot solve on the island, we should take this potion and then we can safely retreat to the coast. This means that this potion can deal with almost all the dangers on the island!"

"If, instead of drinking this potion, we make an identical potion and drink it, wouldn't we be able to travel freely on this island? Going to the top of the mountain would be a piece of cake!"

"No wonder, Headmaster Dumbledore and the others said that this competition is most favorable to you, Emma Hughes! Because you only need to make a copy of this potion, and then follow the smell of sulfur and go straight up the mountain!"

After hearing Wentworth's explanation, Emma Hughes and Uesugi Taketsu suddenly understood.

Then, Emma Hughes quickly took out her bottle of potion and said, "It's just copying the potion. I'm good at it!"

Wentworth reminded from the side:

"Don't be careless, Emma. Since this potion can deal with so many emergencies on the island, it must be a compound potion! To perfectly blend different potion formulas together without causing conflicts between their effects, the professors may have changed the original potion formula!"

Hearing Wentworth's reminder, Emma Hughes nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I never look at the formula when I make potions. After all, I can't see it!"

Wentworth: “…”

What Wentworth and the others didn't notice was that while they were talking, a pair of eyes had been hiding behind the vines not far away, watching them quietly. Strangely, the vines didn't react at all.
