Chapter 41: Potions Class (Collect, Recommend)

When the doors of the school hospital were opened again, it also meant that Mikel had finally fulfilled his previous wish and was officially discharged.

It's just that his current state looks a little bad, his steps are vain, and he keeps retching.

Also, before today, Kyle had never thought that a person's face could be blue.

Even the most avant-garde and fashionable portraits in the castle did not dare to paint their faces in such bold colors.

But Mikel did.

His entire head, including his forehead, nose, and lips, was blue, even his hair and teeth.

From a distance, it looks like a large blue dandelion.

"Kyle ......"

Mikel stretched out his hand, his voice dry: "What are you laughing at, but help me." ”

"It's nothing, it's just that I think of happy things." Kyle stepped forward to support Mikel while turning his head, trying not to look at his face:

"I added twenty points to Hufflepuff yesterday."

"That's really worth having fun with." Mikel nodded and didn't ask any more.

He really doesn't want to talk now, and he doesn't know what the nurse from the school hospital poured him just now, the taste is so bad that he can't say it, his throat is still hot and painful, and his mouth is uncomfortable.

The two of them walked slowly towards the underground classroom.

It is worth mentioning that when they first walked to the pendulum clock courtyard, Mikel's blue head gradually returned to normal.

It's not the same as before, but at least it's not as eye-catching, and the light in the castle is generally dim, so you won't notice anything if you don't look closely.

It seems that Madam Pomfrey didn't mean to make a fool of him in public.

The two of them made their way through the castle, but because Mikel was walking too slowly, by the time they came to the end of the classroom, they were unsurprisingly late.

Snape had just finished counting the roster when he looked up to see the two men standing in the doorway.

"I was late for the first class, are all this year's freshmen so bad?" Snape dragged a long note, "Hufflepuff deducts ten." ”

Mikel looked at Snape, his eyes suddenly widened, and blurted out, "Huh? Are you the ...... Hiss~~"

Fortunately, Kyle reacted quickly enough and stepped on him decisively, which didn't let Mikel finish his sentence.

Otherwise...... I'm afraid they won't be able to get out of this Potions classroom.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kyle hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Professor Snape, we won't be next time." ”

"Hmph, if there is a second time, it won't be as simple as deducting ten points." Snape gave them a cold look: "What are you doing standing stupidly, hurry back to your seat, Hufflepuff will deduct five more points!" ”

Afraid that Mikel would say something that he didn't know if he wanted to live, Kyle quickly pulled him to sit on an empty desk at the back of the classroom.

Snape withdrew his gaze and said in a gloomy voice, "Potions is a profound and important discipline, and I don't expect you to truly appreciate the beauty of the simmering cauldron that simmers with white smoke and a burst of fragrance.

Nor do I expect you to understand the miraculous metamorphosis of an otherwise mundane ingredient that gradually sublimates in a rapid cooking.

Every parasitic berry in your hands, every bezoar will be here, condensed into various forms and compositions in the crucible, and they are the most wonderful secrets of the wizarding world. ”

Snape's voice grew softened, "I can teach you how to increase your prestige, brew honor, and even stop deathβ€”but one thing has to be that you are not the kind of fools I often encounter." ”

Snape's words instantly silenced the class, and the Slytherin snakes sat up straight with their heads proudly up, as if to prove that they were not fools.

In contrast, the little badgers of Hufflepuff are much weaker, they look at me, I look at you, and no one dares to look at Snape.

Mikel, in particular, almost buried his head under the table when he was relieved.

But even that is useless, what should come is still coming.

"Drake!" Snape said suddenly, "To make a boil potion, you need to put slugs or porcupine stings first." ”

What potion?

Mikel looked up blankly and said cautiously, "Put the porcupine thorns first, Professor." ”

"Tsk, let's put the porcupine thorn first......" Snape said with a weird yin and yang "If you flip through the book before school starts, even if you only look at it, you will know that you need to put snake tooth powder to make a boil potion first!"

Do you dare to be late when the foundation is so poor? Hufflepuff deducts one point. ”

"Why don't you write this down!"

Suddenly, there was a rustle of quill pens and parchment in the classroom.

"Turn the book, page one!" Snape returned to the podium and said in a deep voice, "Today we learn to make a simple potion to cure boils.

Although this potion is so simple that as long as your IQ is higher than that of a troll, you will be able to complete it. But I would like to remind you that you must be cautious when doing so...... If you don't want to get boils all over your body. ”

"The materials for brewing potions are in the storage cabinet, and now, in pairs...... Oh yes! ”

At this point, Snape seemed to think of something suddenly, and came to Mikel again.

He glanced down at the table and mocked, "While you don't have to be stupid to wave your wand here, I don't think it's necessary given your current dire condition and for the safety of the other little wizards." ”

Snape took the crucible from the table, looked around, and said to Kyle, "You go with Connor, and don't disturb Drake reading here." ”

In the crowd, Connor looked up in disbelief at Kyle, who was getting closer and closer to him.

It's numb, she's already stuck, and the last one to enter the classroom, can't she dodge it?

And at this time, the other little wizards had also completed their own teams, and even if she wanted to, there was no empty space.

Or would you like to swap it with someone else?

Connor found his roommate sitting behind him, and was about to offer to swap places with her, when Snape's voice came from the podium again.

"What are you still doing in a daze, waiting for me to help you boil the potion?!"

At Snape's roar, the classroom suddenly became busy.

Looking at her roommate who had set up the crucible and then rushed to the storage cupboard, Connor could only sigh faintly, and turned to grind the snake teeth on the table.

For some reason, Snape casually placed a bag on her desk when she walked nearby.

It contained just the ingredients needed to make the boil potion, and there were three parts of each, so Connor didn't need to go to the locker like everyone else.
