Chapter 60: Snape and the Potions Lesson

Potions class is held in an underground classroom. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info here is colder than the main castle building above. Glass jars are lined up along the walls, and the soaked taxidermy insides make you shiver.

This is also the second time that Merlin has seen this legendary undercover agent, and his perception of this guy who endures humiliation but seems to be very cheap is not so simple. Let's call him bad, this guy went undercover all the way and saved several people's lives in the end; Say he's okay, this guy is a slut, and he has complicated feelings for Harry, and he wants to be arrogant and awkward......

Snape, like Flitwick, picked up the roster as soon as class started, and like Flitwick, he always stopped when Harry's name was called.

"Oh yes," he whispered, "Harry Potter, this is our new arrival—the famous one." ”

"You've come here to learn the exact science and rigor of this potion." He spoke, almost a little louder than a whisper, but everyone could hear every word he said.

"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 smoky cauldron that simmers slowly and wafts out of the white smoke and the fragrance that wafts out, and you don't really understand the magic of the liquid that flows into people's veins, and makes people's hearts flutter and their minds blurred...... I can teach you how to increase your prestige, brew glory, and even stop death—but one thing has to be that you are not the kind of fools and fools I often encounter. ”

After his short opening remarks, the class fell silent. Hermione Granger almost moved to the edge of her chair and leaned forward, seemingly eager to prove that she wasn't a fool. Merlin just smiled, how could he be regarded as a half-tone alchemy apprentice, these were not difficult for him.

"Potter!" Snape suddenly said, "What do I get if I add daffodil root powder to wormwood infusion?"

What grass root powder is put into what solution? Harry glanced at Ron, who was just as stunned as he was; Hermione's arms were raised high into the air.

"I don't know, sir." Harry said dryly.

Snape pursed his lips disdainfully.

"Tsk, tsk - it seems that fame doesn't mean everything."

Snape deliberately ignored Hermione's raised arm.

"Let's try again. Potter, if I asked you to find me a bezoar, where would you find it?"

Hermione tried to keep her hands high without leaving her seat, but Harry had no idea what a bezoar was.

"I don't know, sir."

"I don't think you opened a book before school started, did you, Potter?"

Snape still ignored Hermione's trembling arm.

"Potter, what is the difference between scapular aconitum and wolf venom aconitum then?"

At this point, Hermione stood up with her hands raised, looking like she was going crazy.

"I don't know," Harry whispered, "but I suppose Hermione knows the answer, so why don't you ask her?"

A few of the students burst out laughing, and Snape was of course upset.

"Sit down," he yelled at Hermione, "let me tell you, Potter, Narcissus Root Powder, and Wormwood together make a very potent sleeping pill, a dose of life and death water. The bezoar is a stone taken from the stomach of a cow and has a strong detoxifying effect. As for Aconitum scaphoida and Aconitum lupus, they are the same plant, also collectively referred to as Aconitum sinensis. Do you understand? Why don't you write it all down?"

The students looked at each other, immediately lowered their heads, and tried to take notes. Merlin had known this knowledge for a long time, and his ability to memorize it completely was not covered, he just pretended to make two gestures at the bottom.

In a rustle, Snape said, "Potter, Gryffindor will be deducted a point for your confrontation with the teacher." ”

It looked like Harry was about to vomit blood, and he sat down in indignation.

Snape couldn't have kept an eye on Harry, at least he still had lessons to follow. So here comes something dry - a simple magic potion for scabies.

Snape gave a brief account of how to make a magic potion, and with a wave of his wand, the important steps of making the potion appeared on the blackboard, after which he let the students toss around and watched the joke himself......

Almost all of the students were criticized, with the exception of Malfoy and Merlin, who appeared to be Snape's preferred student. But Merlin ......

Snape stared at Merlin for five minutes, but there was no sign of error. Even the technique was very professional, and Merlin only took a rough look at the materials in his hand before going under the knife - cutting the texture in two, removing some of the parts that were ineffective or had dissipated.

Snape then watched as Merlin poked the flame in front of him with his wand, directly stabilizing the temperature of the flame - what he didn't know was that Merlin controlled the temperature directly to the second decimal place......

No matter how you look at it, he looks like a veteran.

Snape narrowed his eyes and walked slowly away from Merlin and into another place.

Merlin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was on the verge of making a mistake just now, but fortunately, Ling Feng reminded him that he finally controlled it.

"Let me remind you, Neville is dying right now." Ling Feng floated in midair, squinting in Neville's direction.

Merlin only remembered for half a second, and then remembered Neville's alleged act of death—not opening it in the right way...... Join OrderAdd Materials......

"Neville!" Merlin whispered, "Your porcupine thorns need to be lifted from the heat before they can be added!" ”

Neville was startled by the sudden roar, and with a flick of his hand, he dropped the porcupine thorn into the pot. Then he reacted, but by this time his hand had already let go, and he saw a lot of bubbles coming out of the pot, which was about to explode.

"Arcane Shield!"

A transparent film suddenly appeared above the cauldron, and the splashed potions all hit the shield.

"Thank you." Neville looked at Merlin gratefully, who smiled at him and put away his wand.

Snape narrowed his eyes and walked to Merlin's side, "Taruo, why are you going to warn Longbottom?" You have to know that people take responsibility for what they do. ”

"I just helped my friend." Merlin stared at Snape.

Snape looked at Merlin for a moment, staring at the emerald eyes for a few seconds, then turned his head and turned his head to Harry, "Potter, why didn't you tell him not to add porcupine thorns?" Do you think he's going wrong and showing you? Gryffindor lost another point because of you. ”

It was so unfair, and Harry was about to defend himself when Ron kicked him from behind the pot.

"Don't be nonsense," he whispered, "I've heard that Snape is particularly unreasonable. ”

An hour later, they climbed the stairs out of the basement classroom, and Harry was depressed. Gryffindor had been deducted two points for him in the first week of school, and he didn't know why Snape hated him so much.
