Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

Professor Slughorn’s non-salty, indifferent and indifferent tone made Ron’s face a little ugly, but Ron, who was accustomed to being ignored with Harry, said nothing, but lowered his head. Silently ran to the locker to fetch the books and balance.

Mike still admires Ron for this point. You must know that Ron’s growth environment can be said to be terrible. His entire childhood and most of his adolescence were almost neglected and left out in the game or novels. The proper one is a template for a black villain.

　　 But Ron relied on his big heart to endure it all, and not only was there no depression, he was happy every day.

　　 Mike really doesn't know if Ron is in a good mood or has a brain problem.

　　 At this time, Draco on the Slytherin desk immediately burst into laughter. While deliberately using a volume that was loud enough for everyone in the classroom to hear, and the few Slytherins nearby said:

　　 "Look, this is the fine tradition of the Weasley family, always using second-hand or even third-hand goods!"

　　 The few Slytherins also laughed, and the whole classroom was soon filled with laughter.

　　 Ron's fists were already tightly clenched together. If it was not class time, Mike would bet Ron would go up and fight Draco.

　　 Harry and Hermione in the seats also stared at Draco angrily, and Hermione also turned to look at Slughorn's hazy figure on the podium because of the steam.

It's a pity that Slughorn obviously didn't mean to offend Draco because of this trivial matter. You must know that the Malfoy family is almost a Death Eater in the face. He didn't want to do it for an ordinary Wes Lai went to provoke each other.

　　 But in order to prevent the situation from continuing, Slughorn coughed slightly and said loudly:

　　 "Well, now that everyone is ready, then we will start the class."

　　 After he finished speaking, he glanced at Slytherin's long table with a deliberate warning, and that glance went directly to Draco and their laughter disappeared.

　　 After seeing Slughorn, he nodded in satisfaction, and stood up his chest, which was already clapping, and said after almost breaking a button:

"I have prepared several potions to open your eyes. Of course, this is just out of interest. But when you finish the advanced class, you should be able to make these potions. So now, who can tell What kind of potion am I?"

　　 As Slughorn said, he pointed his finger at the crucible in front of the Slytherin table. At this moment, a group of clear liquid like spring water was constantly boiling.

In fact, from the placement of these crucibles in the classroom, it can be seen that Slughorn wanted to give every college extra points, so as to achieve results that everyone is satisfied with, such as the one in front of the Slytherin table. This crucible was obviously left for the Slytherins to give points.

　　 It's just that Draco and others obviously failed Slughorn's care, they stared at it for a long time without seeing what potion it was.

　　 Seeing this, Slughorn could only shook his head helplessly, and turned to look at the small hands that had been raised high at the Gryffindor long table.

　　 He pointed to Hermione who raised her hand, and the latter spoke very quickly:

　　 "Veritaserum, a colorless and odorless liquid that allows the drinker to tell the truth, usually used for torture!"

　　 "That's great!" Slughorn pointed at the crucible in front of Mike again, "Then who can tell me what this is? Mike?"

　　 Slughorn looked at Mike with expectant eyes, obviously hoping that Mike would answer this question.

　　 It's just that Mike chuckled lightly and turned to look at Gryffindor's hand that Hermione had raised early again.

　　 Seeing this, Slughorn felt clear and pointed at Hermione again.

　　 "It's a compound decoction!"

　　 "Oh! Great! Great!" Slughorn pointed to the crucible on Gryffindor's side again, "So this..."

"It's an ecstasy! It is the most effective love potion in the world! It produces spiralling water vapor when it is boiling, and its scent will automatically become your favorite smell, just like I just smelled it Here comes the freshly mowed lawn, brand new parchment and..."

　　 Hermione suddenly stopped talking. She flushed, glanced in Mike's direction through the thick mist in the classroom, and then quickly lowered her head.

　　 Professor Slughorn, who was on the side, was already stunned.

　　 You have to know that there is no such knowledge about love potions in the textbook. If you haven't read relevant books or configured and used ecstasy by yourself, others will never know these things.

　　 He really didn't expect it. The girl in front of her could have such a wealth of knowledge.

　　 "My dear, what's your name?"

　　 Realizing that the girl in front of him might be a genius, Slughorn instinctively softened his voice.

　　 "Hermione Granger, sir."

　　 "Granger? Are you related to Hector Dagworth Granger, the founder of the Extraordinary Pharmacists Association?"

　　 "Uh, I don't think so. Sir, I'm from Muggle."

　　 Hearing that there was another laughter from the Slytherin table, but Slughorn paid attention to them at all. He looked at Hermione tenderly and smiled:

"It's really good, it's good, you remind me of a student of mine who was also born in Muggle, but she has an amazing talent that makes people jealous. Uh, you know, this is rare in Muggles. But I I have met two in this life. I am so lucky!"

　　Professor Slughorn's words made Hermione's flushed face even more red, while Harry and Ron on the side applauded desperately, and Mike in the distance was also smiling.

　　 "Well, give Miss Granger of Gryffindor this well-deserved 20 points!"

　　 Say, Slughorn ignored the Gryffindors who were already laughing, stepped onto the podium again and said to the crowd with a serious expression:

　　 "Classmates, please remember that ecstasy can't get you true love! Love can't be imitated, ecstasy can only make people fall into crazy obsessions or infatuations. This is wrong and dangerous.

　　 Yes, I am talking about danger. I think the most dangerous potion in this entire classroom now is the ecstasy..."

　　 Before Slughorn had finished speaking, a chuckle came from the Slytherin table again.

　　 Now Slighorn couldn't stand it anymore, and he glared at Slytherin angrily.

"You, that's you, that platinum-blonde Malfoy!" he said, pointing to Draco, who was looking around. "You just kept laughing. I don't remember Slytherin's quality of laughing when others are talking. One, at least not when I was the dean of Slytherin College, maybe I should communicate with Severus to rectify Slytherin's ethos!"

　　 Draco's small face turned pale when he heard the words Severus. When he saw the words, Slughorn nodded in satisfaction, and turned his head and said to the people earnestly:

　　 "Don't doubt, classmates. If you are my age, you will know that people who are addicted to love usually do a lot of terrible things. In fact, many tragedies stem from this dangerous love potion."

　　 "Well, that's it, I think we should start class."

　　 Slughorn opened the textbook in front of him as he spoke, but Hermione in the audience suddenly pointed to the cauldron in front of Hufflepuff’s long table and said:

　　 "Professor, you haven't told us what is in this crucible."

　　 Mike chuckled slightly, Hermione's desire for extra points was too obvious.

　　 But Slughorn is obviously very optimistic about Hermione, he pretended to be surprised, "Yeah! After that, he said:

　　 "This is a blessing potion, I guess you must know what it is for, right? Miss Granger."

　　 "It can bring luck to people!"

"Very correct! Gryffindor adds ten more!" Slughorn said loudly, "Fortune Elixir, a potion that is extremely complex to make, can indeed bring luck to people. It feels wonderful to take it. How do you describe it... Hmm... You will find that no matter what you do, you will succeed before its medicinal effect disappears!

　　 Of course, you can’t take it often, it’s better to take it several months or even years apart, otherwise it will make you arrogant and reckless.

　　 You know, no matter how beautiful things you use too much, it will do harm. Just like tomatoes and apples, both of them are very nutritious fruits, but in fact, they both contain natural toxins. If you eat too much, you will be poisoned!

Oh! Don't worry too much, Harry. If you want tomatoes and apples to poison people, you have to eat at least a few meals within a few hours. If someone does this, they will probably be killed before they are poisoned!

　　 I gave this example just to let you understand two very important truths in potions. One is that even the best things will have side effects, and the other is that it is nonsense to talk about toxicity regardless of dosage! "

　　 Hermione’s eyes lit up suddenly, she asked:

　　 "You have taken Fu Ling Ji!"

　　 "Of course, I have used it twice in my life, once at the age of 26 and once at the age of 57. I drank two spoons at breakfast. Ah! Those two days were perfect!"

　　 said Slughorn and raised his head, his face was filled with longing and happy smile.

This made almost everyone in the room interested in the elixir. Except Mike, he has used elixir for a long time. This thing is actually nothing special but it is a bit more expensive. With Mike’s current financial resources, he can use it as water. drink.

　　 After a few more minutes, Slughorn finally awoke from his fantasy. He smiled and looked at the pot of blessing, and finally said:

　　 "Next, I will hold a small contest, and this is the prize."

　　The breathing of everyone in the classroom stopped, even Mike was no exception.

　　 You know, it’s a big pot of blessing! Even Mike was moved by such a huge windfall!

　　 But then Slughorn took out a small teardrop-shaped bottle from his arms.

　　 "A small bottle of blessing can provide 12 hours of luck!"

　　 The smile on Mike's face disappeared almost instantly, and it was replaced by a deep dislike. He really didn't expect Slughorn to sting like this.

　　 But even a bottle of blessing potion still excites the classmates in the classroom, especially Franklin, who is staring at the small bottle, his eyes are about to come out.

　　 Don't think about it, he must want to use this thing in Quidditch games.

　　 But if he has watched the 373-page prohibition ordinance of Quidditch games, he should know that the use of fortune in Quidditch games is prohibited.

"Next, please turn your "Advanced Potions Making" to page ten." Slughorn said, "We still have more than an hour. Please use this time to make a good copy. Living Hell Decoction. I know it’s complicated, and I didn’t expect you to make it perfect the first time, but the one who did the best and fastest will get our reward today. Okay, let’s start now Right!"

　　 Slughorn’s voice just fell, Franklin violently took out his crucible and medicine packet, and began to weigh various materials with a balance.

There are still many people in the classroom who react as quickly as him. Now everyone’s attention is highly concentrated. This is the first time I have seen Mike in the scene where he is so focused on making potions. It seems that this Slighorne student still has a set of.

　　 Mike also took out his own materials and tools, and started making potions.

　　 Living Hell Decoction, also known as life and death water, is a powerful tranquilizer. Just a small glass of wine can make people fall asleep for a week.

Mike has already memorized the method of making this medicine by heart~www.readwn.com~ and what Mike wrote down was the improved version recorded in Snape's textbook, so Mike was not as eager as other students, but returned Have the mind to look at the situation of other people.

　　 At this moment, Harry also opened the book Mike gave him, frowning to check the production method of life and death water.

　　 The corners of Mike's mouth rose when he saw this.

What he gave to Harry was the famous "Half-Blood Prince's Textbook". The reason why Mike had to give the textbook to Harry was to return the plot line to the original point as much as possible. He also wanted to see Snape. It must be very interesting to know the expression of his own history of the Second Black History in Mike's hands!

　　 Thinking like this, the smirk at the corner of Mike's mouth became more wanton, but the movement in his hand did not waver at all!

　　 Sleepy beans are squeezed into slices, narcissus roots are ground, and wormwood is shredded and put into water to make wormwood infusion...

　　 One portion after another of the raw materials was quickly processed by Mike and thrown into the crucible while boiling it while turning it clockwise with a spoon.

Soon, light blue steam rose from the boiled crucible, and the liquid inside slowly changed to light brown. When Mike saw it, it turned counterclockwise. This was changed by Snape. The method is said to increase the rate of aging of the liquid medicine.

There is no doubt that Snape’s improved formula is effective. This allows Mike to surpass Hermione and become the fastest progressing person in the classroom even if he loses the first opportunity. It also allows Harry, a potion scum, to be able to quickly Finished the material processing efficiently and entered the boiling stage.

　　 But the amazing speed of Mike and Harry caused the rest of the classroom to feel anxious.
