Chapter 422: Ferenze
Professor Trelawney's dismissal wasn't entirely bad, as divination class was now the most popular class among Hogwarts Witches. It can only be said that most people in this world are Yan Kong, and with his pale blonde hair, cornflower sapphire eyes, and somewhat melancholy mysterious temperament, Ferenze managed to arouse the interest of the little witches in the course. Or the interest in this handsome horse man.
Ryan and Hermione took the time to visit Ferenze, who was now living in a place similar to the woods: the floor was covered in soft moss, and trees had grown inside. After discovering that it was Ryan and Hermione who were knocking on the door, Ferenze looked happy.
"It was great to see friends visiting in the chateau. Ferenze asked Ryan to sit on a stump, then took two glasses of red juice from behind the tree and handed them to them. "Taste, the last raspberry in the Forbidden Forest is ripe, and the juice it makes tastes good. ā
"I really didn't expect you to be the one who came to the school to teach divination this time!" Ryan said with a smile after taking a sip of the sweet and sour juice.
"It's not easy to come out this time. Ferenze flicked his tail. "You know there are a lot of conservatives in the centaurs who think working for humans is a betrayal. ā
Speaking of which, Ferenze looked at Ryan, "Thanks to what you've done before, most of my fellow citizens have changed their minds about humanity, so I'm barely getting permission to teach you. Of course, it was your Aunt Betty who had the biggest effect on this, and her explicit support as a natural priestess really helped me a lot. ā
This should be much better than in the original book. Ryan thought. After that, the three of them chatted for a while, and then they took their leave, because they still had classes in the afternoon.
Ferenze looked a little hesitant to see Ryan and them off, and finally he made up his mind to bend down and whisper an important message to Ryan and Hermione.
"A giant, is Hagrid crazy?" Hermione said in a low voice as she made her way upstairs to the Transfiguration classroom. "Why would he make trouble for himself like this?"
"Think about Hagrid's pedigree. Ryan's words made Hermione guess something at once.
"It'sā" Hermione's face tangled, she didn't know how to express what was going to happen to her. In the end, I could only sigh. "Maybe that's fate. ā
As expected, Hagrid suffered more and more injuries. After all, taming a giant is not an easy task, otherwise Ryan would not have chosen such extreme means to solve this problem at that time.
But Ryan doesn't have much time to pay attention to Hagrid and his giant brother right now, because. The LS exam is closer, and even though Ryan is confident in this regard, he is still nervous. Of course, this can also be due to the environment: when everyone around you is nervous, you will naturally be nervous.
However, the Weasley Joke Shop made a lot of money during this time, because Ryan obtained a large number of sleep-calming herbs from the elves of the Lord of the Rings world and made incense, which was immediately sold to students in grades 5 and 7 who were facing exams. After all, what could soothe the mind of those who are stressed out like a perfect night's sleep?
Naturally, Ryan also left a batch of incense to sell to the members of the book club at cost price. Because your own people always have to be treated preferentially.
"I think I might have a chance of getting an O in my Defence Against the Dark Arts class this year. Watching a silvery-white groundhog bouncing around her, she finally smiled for the first time in a long time. This year's exams are really driving her crazy, if it weren't for the fact that everyone in the reading club is trying their best to help each other, especially if you passed with a high score last year like Qiu. Guidance for members of the reading club for LS exams. I guess it's time for her to drink tranquilizers from Madam Pomfrey by now.
Hannah is not the only one who has benefited from the book club, for example, Neville privately said that he will definitely pass all the classes. Ryan believed he could do it, as he had managed to make a potion of shrinkage potion during his last Potions lesson. Although Snape's assessment was that Neville's potions could only be used when no one else's potions were available, it was also a strong encouragement to Neville: what could he not do with even the most complex potions?
"By the way, how about we have a party for Easter?" Celia suddenly suggested. "At that time, I was idle in school. ā
"What do you think?" Ryan looked at the others, and saw that everyone nodded in agreement. Even Neville, who would definitely visit his parents at St. Munguet during the holidays, said he would come back early for everyone's party.
"If I had known about your party, my grandmother would have kicked me out early and asked me to come over. As she said, in order to make yourself good, vacations can naturally be given up. Neville said with a shrug. "Of course, I also think it's much more fun to be with you than to be alone in an old house. My grandmother did care about me, but sometimes she was too strict. ā
"Alright, let's see you at Easter. I will post the details on the notification board of the school. Ryan said before the meeting ended. That's the benefit of a legitimate organization: at least it's much easier to contact members and arrange a venue.
Soon the time was the last week before the festival in the anxious wait for Easter, and on Wednesday night Ryan and Hermione had been reading a long book in the library, and they did not leave until Mrs. Pince came out with a feather duster to chase people away.
"Is that alchemy bottle of yours any good? Don't waste my medicine. Hermione asked as she walked down the road. After learning that Ryan was researching werewolves, Hermione volunteered to help him. For example, it took several days to brew a pair of wolf poison potion, and now that wolf poison potion is contained in a crystal bottle newly made by Ryan.
One of the most important reasons why wolf venom is expensive is that it has a short shelf life, which means that a highly skilled pharmacist must start working on the wolf venom potions several days before the full moon and come to it once a month. Consider the average income of a high-level potions master to see why the cost of a wolf poison potion is so expensive.
The solution that Ryan came up with now was to make a container that could store the wolf poison potion for a long time, which was the only way he could think of to help the werewolves in a short time. It's much easier than modifying potions or even curing werewolves completely.
"It should be possible, this is a technique of the elves to refine the container. Since they were able to preserve the light of Elendil for such a long time, the alchemy bottle made with the same technology could not be too far behind, even if it was not too far behind. Ryan looked at Hermione and said with some uncertainty. "But seriously, the original Elf technology is too expensive, and I've changed too many things to keep costs down in order for this technology to be affordable for the poor werewolves, and hopefully nothing will go wrong. ā
"How much can we keep the cost down?" Hermione cared, looking at Lupin's outfit back then, she knew that werewolves generally didn't have much money.
"Thirty Galleons. Ryan saw Hermione's eyes widen and quickly explained. "It's not for one person, I made this bottle to hold 15 people for a year, and it was supposed to be for the werewolves on the farm in Norway. ā
"That's right. Hermione nodded, and the werewolves should be able to support it if it averaged two Galleons per person. What's more, just like Ryan said, good things must be used by one's own people first. After these werewolves enjoy the convenience, they may be able to attract more werewolves.
After that, the two of them walked in the direction of the room of requirement, ready to check for the last change in the potion placed inside before going to bed.
