Chapter 1494: Potions Lesson
"Please be quiet, be quiet!" Slughorn stepped up to the podium, "Before you know it, the pleasant Christmas holiday has passed, and I hope you don't overdo it this holiday and forget about studying, because the next semester will be very heavy for us." Now, can anyone tell me about Gobarrot's third law...... Miss Granger, of course!"
Hermione stood up and turned her back as fast as she could, "Gobarrot's third law says that the antidote to mixed poisons is greater than the sum of the antidotes for each individual ingredient. ”
"Exactly!" Slughorn smiled, "Exactly! Gryffindor plus ten!Now, if we admit that Gobarrot's third law holds, then ......"
"Oh my God, what the hell is he talking about!" Ron muttered desperately.
He didn't get a response, because no one in the entire church seemed to understand Slughorn's words except for Evan and Hermione, and everyone could only pretend to admit that Gobarrot's third law was true, and then write down Slughorn's words.
"This means, of course, that if we have correctly analyzed the composition of a potion using Scarppine's manifestation charm, our primary goal is not simply to choose the antidote for each individual ingredient, but to find additional ingredients, which is a more difficult process. "It can transform disparate ingredients through an almost alchemical process......
Alchemy is a new course in the sixth year, and it has deep roots in advanced potions.
Now, Slughorn's classes often present a section of alchemy.
Avene, Hermione, Harry, and Ron didn't take the alchemy course, and Hermione studied with Evan every night and had already mastered a lot of the basics of alchemy, so there was no need to worry about not being able to keep up with the progress of the Potions class.
Harry and Ron were completely in a daze, they couldn't understand what Slughorn was saying.
Ron stared diagonally above the basement classroom with his mouth half-open, absentmindedly scribbling on his brand new book of Advanced Potions Making. Harry's potions talents all came from the annotations on Snape's book "Advanced Potions Making", but Snape certainly wouldn't explain Godbarrot's Third Law, Scarping's Manifestation Charm, Disintegration Alchemy, etc., which were all recognized potions theories, so he could only be in a daze now, thinking about how to get Slughorn to come up with his memories for a while.
Evan listened attentively and took notes from time to time.
Most of his knowledge comes from self-study, and there are many things that he does not understand thoroughly, but now listening to Slughorn's detailed explanation, I feel that I have realized a lot at once.
"Well, now it's time to put the learning to the test. Slughorn finally said, "I want each of you to come to my pulpit and get a bottle, and you must dispense the antidote to what is in the bottle before the end of class." Good luck and don't forget to wear protective gloves!"
Hermione immediately left her stool and walked towards the podium, where she retrieved the bottles of Aven, Harry, and Ron.
"Gobarrot's third law, this time, that prince can't help you, Harry, you have to understand the principle, you can't be opportunistic!" she straightened up and said happily, "Evan and I are in a group, Harry and Ron, you two in a team, let's see who can make the antidote in the end." ”
Hermione dragged Evan to the table next to her, leaving a somewhat annoyed Harry and a stupid Ron, who had been battling with the Advanced Potions Crafting book, even if she didn't know who the half-blood prince was.
Evan poured the bright pink poison into the cauldron and lit it on fire, stirring it carefully with his wand.
In his opinion, this competition is completely meaningless.
The chances of Harry and Ron concocting an antidote were slim, the antidote to the mixed venom was different from the fixed potion recipe, and it was necessary to know what the poison was made of, and Snape's notes were of little help as he could possibly know what the poison was or question Gobarrot's third law.
Noticing that Harry and Ron were staring at him, Evan thought he should give them some help, but before he could start, Hermione approached and said, "Use the silent spell, Aven, don't say the spell." ”
She knew Aven, Harry, and Ron too well to know what they were going to do.
Hermione was determined to win Harry in today's Potions class, and it wasn't okay to mess around right under her nose.
"I'm sorry!" Evan said to Harry, bowing his head and starting his magic.
He guessed that Slughorn's poison should have contained fifty to sixty ingredients.
It was very difficult to find all the poisons in such a short time, and even he had to take it seriously.
At the table next to him, Harry had no idea what to do, he could already think of what Hermione would say in a moment......
"Is there really no hint from the Prince?" asked Ron in a whisper.
"I'm looking!" said Harry.
He pulled out his precious book of Advanced Potions Making, and flipped to the chapter on the antidote, which had Gobarrot's third law, exactly what Hermione had memorized, but there was no note written by the Prince, and it was clear that the Prince understood it as effortlessly as Hermione.
"Nope. He added in frustration.
Both Evan and Hermione were using the Silent Charm, especially Hermione, who was waving her wand above the cauldron with all her might.
The opportunity to defeat the half-blood prince on potions made her very excited.
On the other side, Ernie was muttering to his crucible, "Manifest!
It sounded like a thing, and Harry and Ron hurried to follow suit.
No, it was only five minutes before Harry realized that his reputation as the number one potions master in his class was about to be ruined.
Slughorn looked expectantly into his cauldron during his first round, and was about to cheer as excitedly as usual, but he immediately retracted his head, coughing from the smell of rotten eggs, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Evan and Hermione's cauldron.
Hermione's expression was smug, she was fed up with being overtaken every time she took Potions class.
Now, she's carefully injecting the mysteriously separated ingredients into ten different small crystal bottles.
"You are not allowed to help him, Aven, and I think Harry must be taught a lesson that he will no longer rely on that stupid prince. She bottled the separation and said to Aven, "It's good for him, isn't it?"
"That's right!" replied Evan what else could he do since his girlfriend had said so?
Of course, there is nothing that can be helped, Harry will learn a bigger lesson sooner or later, and Snape is a half-blood prince This kind of thing will always be hidden.
Wait until then, tsk......
The relationship between Harry and Snape is really in love and kills each other, and love and hate are constantly entangled.
