Chapter 9: Classes
After the failure of the expectation of ghosts, Xie An was depressed for a while, but fortunately, as a first-year freshman, they had a lot of courses and were fully arranged. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
During a Potions class, the absent-minded Shean was overjoyed after being harshly trained by Professor Snape. I don't know enough about the world, and I might be able to find a way to change the future from somewhere else.
Luna was relieved to see that Shea had regained her energy after debating with Professor Snape. She has been worried about Andy for a long time these days. After Hermione's best friend was assigned to Gryffindor, there were fewer opportunities to meet, and Hermione was a learning maniac, so I didn't know how Hermione was doing in Gryffindor.
Professor McGonagall spoke in detail about the importance of the Transfiguration class and surprised the students by demonstrating her Animagus form in class. Professor McGonagall admired her department, and a group of children were immediately thrilled and practiced desperately.
"How much will turning yourself into a cat help you in battle?" Xie An asked Luna beside her boredly.
"Harry, look, this match is getting thinner. Ron was desperate at this time.
Harry laughed, "I didn't notice any changes. ”
"Your spells are all wrong, how can there be changes. Hermione said to Ron as she tried to sharpen the tip of her needle.
Ron was taunted by Hermione, his face flushed, he muttered a few words, and turned to talk to another classmate.
Luna watched the interaction of Hermione's classmates, a little unhappy, and wanted to complain to Andy, seeing that Xie An was concentrating on a book on dissecting mysterious animals borrowed from the library. Luna glanced at the bloody and evil pictures a few times, but decided not to tell Andy about it.
"The release of the spell is divided into the correct movement of the wand and the correct pronunciation of the spell, which requires diligent practice, so turn to page 3 of the textbook and read the floating spell several times according to the pronunciation of the textbook. "Teacher Charms is still very responsible.
"Float up. Neville unconsciously waved his wand as he read the spell, the Professor was left floating by the spell.
After throwing a tantrum out of his temper, Flitwick said, "Students, before I start using magic, let me ask you, what are the requirements for a wizard to perform a magic?"
"Wand!" Malfoy said immediately.
Hermione had seen Shea'an cast spells silently without a wand, and there was no need to rely on a wand at all, and sure enough, Flitwick shook his head.
"Spells. Ron said excitedly.
Professor Flitwick shook his head.
"Magic, it's magic, otherwise why can't those squibs release magic. Hermione said excitedly.
"Yes, Miss Granger, it's not quite accurate, but it's not far from the correct answer. For thousands of years..."
"What is the difference between a wizard, a powerful wizard, and an ordinary wizard. Is the ability to manipulate magic inherently fixed or is it constantly changing? To cast a spell, the premise is the ability to cast a spell, so what is this ability? Granger's magic is an inaccurate term. I'll explain it to you in detail..."
Professor Flitwick made a long speech, which almost all the students did not understand, but fortunately, Professor Flitwick's purpose was not to make them understand, his purpose was the same as Professor McGonagall, to make these teenagers understand the importance of Charms class.
After a few small and ornate magic demonstrations as embellishments, Professor Flitwick announced the end of the class.
The students walked out of the classroom in twos and threes, ready to go to Potions class. Seeing that Xie An still looked disapproving, Luna took out a book from her schoolbag and read it.
"The wizarding world, it's a very complicated world, and the study of magic is also very difficult and dangerous. Hogwarts has become the best school in the UK, not only because of its long and storied history, but also because of the continuous efforts of generations of headmasters, teachers and students. The competition was unimaginably fierce, and countless wizards even gave their lives for it. Luna read this school history to Xie An, Xie An was a little distracted, and after listening to it, he sighed slightly, and then grabbed his schoolbag and walked to the basement with Luna.
The Potions classroom was located in a large cellar in the castle, which was very cold, and the walls were lined with wooden shelves of bottles of pickled animals, some of which squirmed. The icy water poured out of the pool from the mouth of the strange-looking human-faced stone sculpture in the corner, and the whole place resembled those ancient torture chambers.
In the gloomy underground classroom, the magic light emitted a weak white light, barely illuminating the students' workstations, and the humid air made it impossible to feel any pleasure. Malfoy's gang and Shea didn't feel any discomfort.
As the best academic institution in the country, Hogwarts is also one of the best in Potions research, such a top research room, open to ordinary students to learn and use, Hogwarts is indeed very strong.
Fortunately, Xie An had often done potion experiments before, and he was able to make full use of all kinds of excellent materials and equipment here. This environment is the best place to experiment with potions.
Snape stood there and the group of students felt more and more difficult to breathe.
"You have the worst class of students I've ever seen, and I think you might as well go home and learn to be a magic chef, and maybe the dishes you make will be more useful than the potions you make. ”
Snape taunted the group of children at all lengths, pinpointing the mistakes of each student. Unfortunately, this kind of guidance made students make more mistakes, and Snape in turn criticized the students who made them even more viciously.
Xie An seriously pondered his magic potion, his ability has long surpassed that of his classmates, since the last time he debated with Snape in the classroom, although Snape still did not give a good face, but acquiesced to Xie An's specialness, allowing Xie An to do some of his own things with the help of the materials and facilities in the classroom after completing the course.
"Look at what our genius has to do today. This is the recipe for the water of life and death, can our genius also lose sleep. Snape walked over to Shea's desk and glanced at Shea's magic potion book with a sneer.
"Professor, I have never understood the difference between this potion and the hypnotic potion, and you see that these drugs and the way of treatment are also slightly different, will the different treatment methods affect the effect of the medicine in the future?" Xie An didn't seem to hear Snape's ridicule, and calmly picked up his textbook and asked for advice.
"I thought that geniuses were born to know without learning. Snape glanced at the recipe drawn by Xie An and sneered: "As a potions master, I am not even familiar with the extraction and refining of the most basic magic herbs, and it is a fool's dream to make qualified magic potions. Remember, you'll learn these methods of dealing with magical herbs in your herbology class. And the formula of your so-called hypnotic potion, have you really looked at it carefully? Hypnotic water is just a product of the reduced medicinal effect of life and death water, and it is simply a thing. Hmph, I don't know what to say, let's take a look at the basics. ”
Luna helplessly watched Snape finish repairing Andy and then move on to the next target, Harry Potter, and thought to herself: How do you feel that Professor Snape is very happy.
"Okay, another day wasted, and so many precious materials wasted, I really hope that you can taste your own potions, so that the academy can waste less resources on you. Snape announced the end of class with a standard set of closing remarks.
Xie An put away the textbook and the workbench and asked Luna, "What's the next class?"
"Defence Against the Dark Arts class. ”
