Slytherin and Ravenclaw were a group of four, and naturally stood at the two tables, and Harry and the three had to be in a group with Ernie.

When they had all found their places, Slughorn returned to the back of the podium, and through the neatness of the crucible, he said, "Alright, now the class begins...... Please bring out the scales, medicine bags, and your "Advanced Potions Making" textbook. ”

"Professor?" Harry raised his hand and said, "I don't have books, I don't have scales, I don't have anything, and so is Ron...... We didn't expect to be able to improve the ......."

"Oh...... That's right! I almost forgot that Professor McGonagall had brought it up. ”

"You can use the materials in the storage cabinet today, and you can use the old ...... for the scales and textbooks first," said Slughorn as he walked over to a storage cabinet in the corner, took out two worn-out textbooks, and the scales and the crucible, and handed them to the two of them.

"Alright, let's get down to business!" He returned to the back of the podium, "I have prepared several potions to open your eyes, right in the crucible in front of you. If all goes well, you'll be ready to do it when you've completed the Advanced Class. ”

"I think you've heard of their names, even though you haven't done them yet...... Now, can anyone tell me what kind of potion this is? ”

Slughorn walked over to the Slytherin table and reached for the lid of the cauldron. The others leaned over and saw that it was full of liquid that looked like clear water.

"Truth spitting." Hermione said directly, "Colorless and odorless, it can force people to tell the truth. ”

"Good!" Slughorn said happily as he walked over to the Ravenclaw table, "So, what is this?" ”

"I'll give you a hint, it's mentioned in those pamphlets from the Ministry of Magic lately......"

"Polyjuice decoction." Hermione replied calmly.

She was no stranger to compound decoction, and she had successfully boiled it, although the experience of using it at the time was not very good.

"That's right, that's right! So, what comes next, can you still recognize it, dear? Slughorn opened the cauldron on Harry's long table, and Hermione recognized it with a glance.

"Aphrodisiac...... The kind of very good quality. ”

Hermione's performance intrigued Slughorn, who opened the crucible on the podium.

"Miss Granger, come and see, can you recognize what this is?"

Hermione looked at the strange smell of the potion in the cauldron, it was crystal clear. Sniffed, and replied without hesitation: "Elixir!" Professor. ”

"Very good, very good!" Slughorn clapped his hands in delight, his words full of praise.

"Sure enough, it's the best student in the whole grade, Gryffindor plus twenty points!"

He raised his hand and motioned for everyone to return to their places, and continued, "Truth elixir, a potion that makes people tell the truth, is mostly used in interrogation, and it is a potion that is strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic. ”

"Compound decoctions, which are also strictly controlled, are now banned. Because it can completely transform people into another person. In the current situation, I don't need to stress the danger of it. ”

"Aphrodisiacs, potions that can create ** love, are also controlled agents."

"I saw an aphrodisiac in a shop in Diagon Alley, but it was a modified one, and it only lasted twenty-four at most. But this pot in front of you is not like this. "I need to remind you that aphrodisiacs do not create love, they only bring intense obsessions and infatuations, and they are likely to last for months or even years." ”

"Finally, the elixir." He gently shook the potion in the cauldron, allowing the strange and charming aroma to emanate, attracting everyone's attention, and then closed the lid, and instead took a small bottle from the pocket of his waistcoat, and shook it.

"Perhaps the most miraculous potion, it only takes such a small bottle to bring twelve hours of good luck. After you drink it, you will feel that whatever you do is a breeze, like you have won the favor of Lady Luck. ”

Of course, this good luck is not permanent, and it is not possible to drink it all day. Who knows why? ”

"Because excessive consumption of elixir can cause dizziness, and it can also make people reckless and arrogant, in short, it will change people's personalities."

Hermione's answer pleased Slughorn, who added ten points to Gryffindor.

"Great answer!" "So, you've all heard, don't overdo it, no matter how good it is." Even if it is a miracle elixir, it has a certain toxicity...... However, there is nothing wrong with such a small bottle! ”

"I decide! Make it a prize for this lesson! He said, "Now, turn to page 10 of your Advanced Potions Making, and in the rest of the time, you will try to make a potion of living hell." ”

"It's a complex potion you've never been exposed to, and I don't expect anyone to make the perfect potion...... So, the reward goes to the best one! ”

"Now, let's get started!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone moved out of their crucibles, turned the book to page ten, and began to boil according to the steps written on it.

Everybody was very serious and wanted to get the elixir and get that very lucky day. Slughorn walked among the crowd with interest, but not with a kind smile on his face, as straight as Snape was.

But not everyone was going that way, and Harry was in trouble. The blank space of the old textbook he got was filled with annotations, and some steps were directly crossed out, so that the original operation steps could not be seen at all.

Hurriedly fetching the raw materials, Harry was dumbfounded in the face of this textbook. But there was no other way, so I had to start boiling according to the method written above.

Squeeze the sleepy beans with the back of the knife to get more juice; Pour the juice into the crucible, stir it counterclockwise seven times and then stir it clockwise immediately after it turns pale pink......

Harry didn't know what the original steps were, but it was easy to make the potion fade by following the notes in the book, and by the time Slughorn told everyone to stop, the potion was only a faint pink color, and it would be as clear as clear water.

One by one, Slughorn checked everyone's results. He didn't make any comments, occasionally stirring and sniffing, but Harry could see clearly that none of the other people's potions were as pale pink as he was.

Ron's was a pot of paste, Ernie's was an eerie smell, and Hermione's was a pot of water......

Wait a minute!

Water?!
