Chapter 74: Potions Lesson
In the afternoon, Ravenclaw students attend Potions class with Hufflepuff students.
Remembering Snape's death, Ios felt a little sorry. swore to protect the child of the woman he loved the most, and it was the one he hated the most, how deep is this love?
Looking at Harry Potter's familiar obnoxious appearance and messy hair, he must have been restraining his disgust all the time. However, if you look closely, you will find a pair of green eyes, which is nostalgic and sad.
Think about what he's done for Harry Potter, what an admirable man!
But deeds are deeds, and Snape's personal image is really hard to describe. Thinking of the Snape he saw at that dinner, his dark and smooth hair, cold, empty black pupils, and gloomy and cold temperament, he is completely a standard villain!
It's no wonder that Harry Potter didn't trust him from the beginning, his attitude is one thing, and this personal image is probably also an important factor. Moreover, Lily didn't choose him back then, maybe there was a reason for this?
Even the class was held in a basement, cold and dark, and there were glass jars soaked in taxidermy along the walls, and the timid students were probably already shivering.
I saw Snape walk to the podium in silence, with a straight face, fighting with Professor McGonagall.
After the roll call, he spoke, not loud but unusually clear, with a terrifying power. If Ios hadn't felt the fluctuation of his magic, he would have almost thought it was some kind of magic.
"You have come here to learn the precise science and rigorous art of potion making. Since there is no stupid waving of a wand here, many of you will not believe that it is magic.
I don't expect you to really grasp the beauty of the simmering cauldron that smoking, the fragrance wafting out, and you don't really understand the magic of the liquid that flows into people's veins, the thrilling and disorienting of the will......
I can teach you how to increase your prestige, brew glory, and even stop death—but one thing has to be, and that is that you are not the kind of foolish fools I often encounter. ”
After listening to his long words, almost everyone was unconvinced, who would think that they were stupid and foolish? They were all ready to prove themselves, especially the Ravenclaw students.
Seeing this, Snape didn't say anything more, and directly divided them into pairs to work with each other to make a simple potion.
It seems that Snape is only hot-tempered when he encounters Harry, which is reflected in the fact that he has become yin and yang and has a tendency to be troublesome, and this person is specifically Harry Potter.
But even so, he was still a very strict teacher. As the students worked on the materials according to his instructions, he walked back and forth, checking in on each group's condition.
Although everyone was holding their breath to prove themselves, they were just a group of freshmen who had only been in school for two days, and they quickly made all kinds of mistakes, which also attracted Snape's merciless criticism, and only a few people survived, including Ios.
After a bit of scrambling, everyone was able to concoct the potion, which was checked by Snape and confirmed to be effective, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only did he have to concentrate on handling the materials, dispensing the potions step by step, but he also had to endure the angry shouts of Snape that came his ears from time to time, which was simply tormenting.
When Snape announced the end of class, they all hurriedly packed up their things and left the underground classroom.
The afternoon class was all there was to Potions, but that didn't mean they were fine, and in the evening, they needed to go to a tower where they could observe the stars with a telescope and learn the names of the different stars and the trajectories of the planets.
Although that's all he had to learn now, Ios felt that this might be laying the groundwork for future divination courses, especially astrological divination, which was also a very esoteric science.
The ordinary daily life passed day by day, and there was a small episode in the middle, and Ios became famous.
It's not because he's making big news or making too much of a fanfare, it's just because he's so good.
That's right, it's just amazing!
Ios has shown extraordinary talent in any of his classes, far exceeding the others. Chant spells quickly and skillfully, know all the complicated knowledge points in the textbook, and accurately and perfectly configure the most effective potions.
It can be said that as long as he has been taught by the teacher, he can quickly grasp it, even if he has not been taught, he knows a lot, and it is estimated that many senior students are not as good as him.
And compared with him, although there are not no students in the same class who can usually be called geniuses and scholars, they are all overshadowed in front of him, how can geniuses compare with hanging?
(Of course, this refers to ordinary geniuses and not children of fate.) The Child of Destiny comes with immortal hanging, lucky hanging, and some also come with upgrade hanging, harem hanging and reducing wisdom hanging, how to fight? )
Especially Ios is not only extraordinarily talented, but his appearance is also the most outstanding type that can't be faulted. You can say he's not your favorite type, but you're never embarrassed to say he's not good-looking.
Compared with him, the boys of the same class all felt that their future was dark.
This also led to the polarization of Ios's popularity, he was very popular among girls, while boys were very cold to him, but fortunately, Ios didn't need friends very much, so he didn't think about changing anything, and the current situation couldn't be better for him.
The boys are holding their breath and want to prove themselves. And what better way to prove yourself than by defeating Ios?
So they all keep an eye on Ios, trying to find out what he is not good at, and then experience what it feels like to be strong. This idea reached its peak when the girls made excuses to surround Ios.
However, they only want to beat Ios in the areas that he is not good at, isn't this a disguised admission of defeat? I really don't know if this is gratifying or sad?
Soon, the opportunity came.
One day, the Ravenclaw freshmen found an announcement as they returned to the common room that they were going to have flying lessons on Thursday.
The boys who saw this announcement glanced at each other, and the opportunity came!
What's the use of having a smart head? What's the use of being handsome? None of this will improve your athletic ability! No amount of reading can teach you how to fly.
And wielding a broomstick requires skill and excellent reflexes, and can a good-looking, nerd do that?
Thinking so, they were all looking forward to Thursday, and the time for them to raise their eyebrows was coming.
In the midst of these people's ardent anticipation, Thursday, it has arrived!
