Chapter Twenty-Six: Snape's Answer
The next morning, Ted woke up half an hour earlier, and the system was right, wizards had to be not only magical, knowledgeable, but also physically fit.
At critical moments, he can be like Gandalf, wielding a staff and sword to meet the enemy - break the witcher's leg at will~
So Ted told Hermione yesterday to see you in the auditorium tomorrow morning. He's going to get up early to go for a run.
Originally, Ted was going to run around the Black Lake.
But after standing on the edge of the black lake, he silently gave up this idea.
Nima, it's almost the same to let Ansu fly around. If I run a lap, I guess I'll have to eat lunch.
It is estimated that it will be more than ten kilometers in one lap! I don't know if there's a half marathon!
After running for twenty minutes, Ted panted and gave himself a "clean up", the 11-year-old body is still too weak, and he really needs to strengthen his exercise.
However, he also gained something, and he gained 3 points of experience from running, which is slightly better than nothing.
The main thing is that he has found a new psychic ability - spiritual stimulation.
Anyone who runs long knows that many times the body is not at its limit, but the brain thinks you are there.
But if you grit your teeth and hold on for a while, you will move on to the next stage, and your brain will enter a kind of blank space of development limitations~
Ted found a way to use psychic abilities to motivate his brain, to break through the invisible limitations of the brain on the body.
Of course, this ability is also dangerous and should not be used unscrupulously.
Excessive mental stimulation may cause the body's feedback to be ignored, in case the body really reaches its limit, and as a result, the limitations of the brain are gone, and if you don't do it well, it will collapse directly.
The second day was a Charms class, the history of magic, and herbology.
In addition to the history of magic, Ted answered three more questions and scored 10 points.
I didn't get anything in the history of magic class.
The main reason is that the ghost teacher, Professor Spinn, is too touchy, hey, it's just a mix!
I didn't even click through the wall to get into the name, and I just started reciting the text.
There were no questions at all, and naturally there were no extra points. It is impossible to gather wool on him.
If Ted was in college, he wouldn't have laughed to death with such a teacher, but now he is really uncomfortable!
Sure enough, lying flat and restraining all means of exploitation, there is no way to move through the system.
On the afternoon of the third day, it was finally time for Snape's Potions class. There is one big class a week, and the four colleges take it together.
The Potions classroom was in the basement, and it was unknown if it was because the basement was cold and conducive to the storage of potions materials, or because Snape's office was underground.
Anyway, the environment here is not good.
Even though Hogwarts is a school of witchcraft and wizardry, with a millennial envelop of magic, it still can't change the cold and dark nature of the basement.
Coupled with the large glass jar with magical animal parts on half of the wall of the classroom, it feels like being in the underground specimen room of the Medical Research Institute!
Ted had the pleasure of going there once in his last life, just in time for people to be engaged in building renovations, and all kinds of cabinets, jars, bags, and dried corpses were placed at will - they are really not afraid of someone stealing it~
It felt like a horror in Frankenstein's human laboratory.
The Potions classroom felt like this to the freshmen, even the little snakes of Slytherin came to their master's class, and they all hid the glass jars with pale faces.
Add to that the gloomy old face of Snape, dressed in a black robe and with long black greasy hair—and it's not just Frankenstein's human laboratory—and he's still an experiment!
Before class, Hermione complained to Ted, "I heard that Professor Snape never gives extra points to students from other houses!" ”
Ted pouted inwardly: No extra points? Then he didn't meet me, even if his heart was iron? My ancestors struck iron! For the sake of the task, Gan!
Before class, Ted used [Ravenclaw's Wisdom (Blue)] to buff himself.
……
Ever since Snape slid in silently like a large black bat outside the door, the temperature inside seemed to have dropped by a few degrees.
He glanced at the student, his eyes pausing for a moment on Harry.
He opened his mouth slightly, and his voice had a taste of disdain: "You have come here to learn the precise science and strict craftsmanship of this potion preparation......"
"Since there's no stupid wand waving here, many of you won't believe it's magic."
"I don't expect you to really grasp the beauty of the simmering cauldron with white smoke and fragrance, you don't really understand the magic of the liquid that flows into people's veins, the magic of the heart and mind......"
"I can teach you how to raise your prestige, brew glory, and even stop death—but one thing has to be, and that is that you are not the kind of fools and fools I often encounter."
Ted: Listen, listen, what orthodox words!
I am here to declare that Snape is "pure-blooded"!
Then came Snape's question-and-answer session, who, like Professor McGonagall, liked to give the freshmen a kick-off.
As for who will act as a teaching aid, let's randomly select an unlucky one~
Well, it's not random, actually. It mainly depends on who Snape is unhappy with.
This time, Hallie was definitely no longer Snape's target.
And Neville, the boy who was lucky not to die, Snape was not interested at all.
Therefore, Ted, who has been wearing a "smirk" on his face since he spoke just now, has become his target.
It can be seen from his attitude towards Hermione in the original book that he dislikes the kind of students who are flamboyant and like to show off. It may have been influenced by James Potter and a few people.
"Epiphani! Stand up! ”
"Answer me, what do you get by adding daffodil root powder to wormwood infusion?"
Snape suddenly turned his head, it was an eh~ sneak attack.
"A water of life and death, Professor." Ted's smile was gone, and his expression was calm. It was as if he had foreseen Snape's sneak attack and was ready for it.
"If you were asked to find a piece of bezoar, where would you find it?"
"In the stomach of a cow."
"What is the difference between scapular aconitum and wolf venom aconitus?"
"There is no difference, collectively referred to as aconitum."
Snape came up with a three-sword triple, only to be blocked by Ted casually.
Failed to break through the armor~
But Snape was so easy to give up?
He directly increased the difficulty, and the questions were no longer limited to the first-grade textbook.
"Why do slugs remove mucus before using it?"
Ted understands this question too well, the slugs that die in his hands can go around Diagon Alley for three and a half weeks!
"Because slug mucus is a cheap material, it is stripped down to increase income. In addition, if you don't remove the mucus and wash it, it will have a weak effect on many potions. ”
Snape was also stunned, he really didn't expect Ted to answer this question - this is not the content of the textbook, but the knowledge that can only be learned in practice. At least the textbooks don't mention the issue of increasing income.
"So, what should I pay attention to when collecting skydiving mushrooms?"
"Be careful not to collect the stipe, the stipe of the parachute mushroom is highly toxic and has a strong hallucinogenic effect, once mixed into the potion, it will seriously cause the death of the drinker."
As the so-called red umbrella umbrella white pole, lie down together after eating.
This potion ingredient was the herb that Ted had been allowed to work with by Mr. Slug during his last week of working in Diagon Alley.
"Where can grass ridge insects be found?"
"A dark bush with plenty of magic."
……
There were five or six questions in a row, and the other students were dumbfounded by this "rapid offensive and defensive battle".
Then Ted finally couldn't answer.
Snape squinted, held his head high, and made a look of disdain: "I thought you knew everything, and you didn't have to take this class!" ”
Then he yelled at the other students, "What are you waiting for? Why not write this down knowledge? You know everything, don't you?! "Incompetent rage~
Snape's heart was roaring: What's the situation? I almost rolled over?!
He still has his own pride, and if he didn't ask directly about the formula of the elixir, Ted would definitely not be able to answer.
It is necessary to be both basic and secluded.
He himself was completely unprepared, and he was embarrassed just by thinking about the problem.
Students: Made, what's going on? We didn't do anything and we were scolded! Lying down is also under a spell?!
The first Potions class lasted the first ten minutes in Snape's pretending and questioning.
Snape asked a lot of questions, and then he didn't even add points!
Ted: Made, Snape's heart is not just made of iron, it's black of iron!
Snape: Because I've been in the rain, I have to fold someone else's umbrella for everything.
Then he started to explain the content of the first lesson.
In addition to the basic theory and the use of utensils, this class also teaches how to make scabies potion.
This potion is able to treat many skin problems.
Potions class must be practiced!
So nearly an hour after Snape said the process and precautions, let everyone do it~
Crucibles, stirring bars, grinding bowls, balances, silver knives...... Ready to go.
For some, it's as dangerous as having to dissect yourself!
"Ding~ Trigger Task:
【Young Wizard's First Potion (Green)】
Although Snape's character is not good, his level is there. Now that he's taught you how to make the scabies potion and what to look out for, give it a try!
Goal: Complete the configuration of your first potion in your life.
Reward: 200 XP, card [Neville's Failed Scabies Potion (Green)].
The feelings are deep and boring. This one, and three more! ”
Fortunately, although Snape the Blackheart does not give extra points, at least it is not completely unrewarding.
Cut the herbs, weigh them, boil the oil, put the oil in the pan, fry them until they are golden brown on both sides, and the little flavor came up after scratching it, and Malfoy at the next table cried greedily......
