The new semester has begun, and the learning atmosphere at Hogwarts has suddenly become warmer, but the weather has not become more enthusiastic, but more unstable. After the heavy snowfall, it was a continuous rainy day, and the environment was very humid.

But Malfoy began to jump up and down again, wandering around the school library when he had free time all day. Trying to find fun with some of the weaker Gryffindor students.

When Lilin and Hermione bumped into each other, Malfoy was casting a spell on Neville that made his legs so close together that he could only walk by hopping.

Hermione was overwhelmed and wanted to step forward. But he was pulled by Li Lin.

"This is a Slytherin and Gryffindor dispute, and we don't fit to get involved."

Li Lin said. But Hermione was puzzled, even a little angry.

"It's against the school rules, and Malfoy did it, shouldn't we blame him for his mistakes?"

Li Lin shook his head.

"If the accusations are any good, Slytherin has been in the midst of discrimination and accusations from the three houses, but they have not developed the right attitude. And what personality do you think Gryffindor is? If something like this happens to them, they might turn around and put on an invisibility cloak and beat Malfoy in the middle of the night. ”

Hearing Li Lin's words, Hermione was a little silent, indeed, the Gryffindors were brave, or a little reckless. Many conflicts were resolved privately by themselves, and even exaggerated things like duels in the middle of the night have happened.

Li Lin, looking at Hermione's reaction, continued to mend the knife.

"It's useless for Malfoy to blame Malfoy for doing such a thing, and their dean, Professor Snape, will never deduct his own school marks for this. If you feel that Malfoy has ruined the culture of the House, you can go and file a complaint with Professor McGonagall. ”

Hermione snapped into her eyes and turned and ran towards Professor McGonagall's office. Li Lin chuckled at the corner of his mouth, a first-grade student is the most suitable to complain to the teacher.

Duels like Gryffindor's are the most brainless.

And, in this way, Slytherin, the second place in the house score, is about to open a bigger gap with their first place Ravenclaw.

Slytherin, who have won the House Cup for six years in a row, look set to fall this year.

But in the evening, Li Lin, who was sitting at the dining table eating dinner, suddenly saw Malfoy, who was walking towards Li Lin.

"What's wrong?" Li Lin put down the pastry he was holding and looked at Malfoy obliquely.

"Isn't it enough to teach you a lesson?"

Seeing Malfoy's approach, the Ravenclaws around him all sat up straight and turned their gazes, after all, Malfoy was also notorious at school.

Perhaps because his attendant was not around, Malfoy's attitude was a little weak, and he didn't use those insulting words. It's normal talking.

"Lovegood, Professor Snape asked you to come to his office."

With that, he turned and left the Ravenclaw table.

Hearing this, Li Lin's heart was filled with long-lost joy. The emotion was almost reflected on his face, and he said goodbye to Hermione briskly and headed to Snape's office.

"Almost emptied my vault, can I finally hear it now?"

Li Lin sighed in his heart.

When I came to the door, the door opened automatically. Then I saw Professor Snape sitting behind his desk. I have to say that his current appearance is indeed very much like a bat.

"Hello, Professor Snape."

Li Lin said hello, and then shifted his gaze to the two bottles of potions on the table.

"Elixir of Blessings, and Potions of Knights."

Snape introduced, and then continued without waiting for Li Lin to ask.

"The Knight Potion is named after you, and since it's not yet a finished product, I won't give you the recipe yet. Although it can increase strength and agility after use, it does not last long and does not change the essence of the body. How to use it, just drink it, yes. Considering that you are still and muddy age, it tastes sweet. ”

"The Elixir of Blessing is a finished product, and you know its formula. I don't need to tell you how to use it. ”

Li Lin blinked, what is still the age of mud. Wait, no.

"What about another potion? The potion that costs the most materials, why doesn't it even have a trial work? ”

Professor Snape suddenly moved slightly in his chair, bringing himself closer to the shadows. Some of them couldn't see their expressions clearly.

"That kind of potion is more troublesome, but don't worry, if you want the materials, there are still some parts that you don't need to buy for the time being."

The corners of Li Lin's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but complain.

"Professor Snape, the purchased materials, dragon scales alone are enough to make me ten sets of full-body armor, even if I ask the alchemy workshop to apply some magic spells like the levitation charm, it may not cost as much as this potion."

Then he looked at Snape in the shadows, accentuating his voice.

"And it won't make much of a difference."

Professor Snape's expression was unclear, but there was a faint anger in his words.

"Alchemy? Can alchemy compare to potions? Potions can resist death, there are life and death water, there are forgetting potions, there are love potions. Snape gave some examples. Then the voice slowed down.

"And it's not stupid to wrap your body in dragon scales?"

Li Lin was silent, first took the two bottles of potion and put them in his pocket. Then he looked up and spoke.

"Professor, have you forgotten Mr. Nicolame?"

Yes, Nicolame, the famous alchemist and opera lover, he is almost six hundred and sixty-six years old this year, and I have to say that this age is worth pondering, it is simply full of slots. Nicolamay now lives in seclusion in Devon with his wife, Perenal, who is 658 years old.

Nicolamay, proficient in ancient alchemy, mastered the refining of the Philosopher's Stone, and the only remaining Philosopher's Stone in the world belongs to Nicolame. It is a substance with miraculous functions. It can turn any metal into pure gold, and it can also create an elixir of life, so that those who drink it will never die.

If it weren't for the fact that the gold standard had withdrawn from the stage of history, a single philosopher's stone would have caused chaos in the world. Although the wizarding world still uses gold coins like gold gallons, this magic currency produced by goblins is already different from gold.

Li Lin mentions Nicolame, implying that it is Narp, and there are items in alchemy that make people immortal.

Snape fell silent for a moment, then spoke a little stiffly.

"The elixir of life is nothing more than a magic stone, and it is still a magic potion."

It seems that I feel embarrassed for my words. Snape waved his wand, and the door behind Li Lin instantly opened.

"Alright, please go out first. Mr. Lovegood, try your little sweetened drink. ”

In this way, Li Lin was kicked out of Snape's office.

He shrugged his shoulders helplessly, then turned around and walked to the Room of Requirement, he needed to try the effect of the knight's potion, as for the elixir of blessings, this kind of luck potion against the sky is of course treasured, and it is only used when necessary, and it can't be used to buy lottery tickets.

Snape had made a full bottle of the Knight's Elixir, and according to the small note attached to it, it only required a tenth of the amount each time it was used.

With the theme of an empty room in mind, walk around the corridor. Then after Li Lin entered the Room of Requirement, there was a very empty and spacious empty room in front of him.

Drinking the knight's potion, Li Lin's facial features came together, the potion, it is indeed sweet, but the sweetness is excessive, this taste, maybe Deng Liduo, who likes to eat cockroaches, can accept it.

When the taste in your mouth dissipates, the potion begins to have an effect. Li Lin took out some heavier things from his pocket and tried to lift them. Then I found that my strength had increased by at least five times or so. Then he ran in an empty room, and his speed became extremely fast, and a rough test took only three seconds for a hundred meters.

Such a change can be said to be very powerful, but there is a reason why Snape doesn't pay attention to it, although the strength and speed have been improved, but the reaction ability and coordination have not changed in the slightest, that is to say, Li Lin, who is running rapidly, can't control this kind of thing at all, because his brain nerves still adapt to the original speed.

Including the maximum strength, when the force is large, sometimes small. It's hard to control.

After about half an hour, the effect of the potion wore off. Such an action time, even if Li Lin wanted to strengthen his control over strength and speed through exercise, he couldn't achieve it, after all, there were still nine potions left, how long would it take to train and get acquainted with it? And if the interval is long, the body's memory of the new speed and power will also disappear.

Still, in general, it's useful. But it's also an unfinished product.

Although the most important potion that can improve the resistance to magic is not yet complete, there are many things that can be done. That's learning.

Before solving the problem of spellcasting mediums, spells were of no use to Li Lin at all, so he had to give up the shortcut of spells and take other paths like an ancient wizard.

Li Lin set up some books on the bookshelf in the dormitory, but it was not enough, Li Lin went to the library to borrow a few books on alchemy, as well as books on magic script.

After all, it is still very feasible to use dragon scales to create armor, which can greatly improve the resistance to demons. Even if it is a little nondescript to wear on the body, it is okay to make a dragon scale inner armor and wear it under the robe.

In addition, the staff ordered by Li Lin was also about to arrive. It's a bit too wasteful just to smash people with a staff. Then it is still necessary to inlay some cores, so that the staff has the ability to cast flames and gush out clear water. It doesn't seek to have much lethality, but just adds some practical value.

Therefore, Li Lin needs to learn alchemy, as well as magic scripts.
