Hogwarts card system

Chapter 27 Come on, Snape
Brewing potions starts with proper handling of the ingredients.

The quality of the material and the treatment method will directly affect the efficacy of the medicine.

First put 6 parts of poisonous snake teeth into a mortar and grind them into powder.This step must be fine. If there are large particles, there will be flocs in the final product, and the effect is very poor.

Using pure water as the base, put the snake tooth powder and 4 parts of dried nettles into the crucible, heat it with a slow fire for 10 seconds, and trigger the reaction of the medicinal properties.

Then wave your wand, inject the magic, and wait patiently for the reaction to complete.

The amount of magic power, the length of waiting, and even the will to inject magic power will all have an impact.

Wait until the color of the solvent turns bluish, put 4 steamed horned slugs into the crucible, after 5 seconds the slugs will melt.

Remove the cauldron from the heat, and place 2 whole porcupine quills into the cauldron.

After the porcupine quill melts, wave your wand, inject the magic power again, stir clockwise 5 times, the color turns light green, done!

Ted and Hermione's potions are going very well, and the color is almost done.

Anyway, Ted can be regarded as a half-skilled worker.

"Ding~ The task [Young Wizard's First Potion (Green)] is completed, you get 200 experience, and the card [Neville's Failed Scabies Potion (Green)]."

[Neville's failed scabies potion (green)]

item card

Neville failed to make the scabies potion, and after throwing it out, all the infected targets within a radius of 5 meters of the drop point were covered with itches and covered with scabies bumps.

one time.

Remarks: Be careful not to throw it on your own people!
Ah, a one-time item card.

Although the effect is not very good, it seems that the range is quite wide.

……

After all, the potion brewing process has already been explained clearly, and the amount of medicinal materials is not a word like "appropriate amount", which is based on feeling. The time is accurate to the second. It stands to reason that there should be no problems if you follow the steps.

Then "pang~", Seamus' cauldron exploded!
Four or five little wizards around were affected.His own face was black, and two red boils grew on his nose!
Frying Pot Tianzun Seamo: Back then, I put my hands in my pockets and didn't know what a crucible was.

After seven years, he must have earned a lot of money just to buy the crucible.

Snape was so angry, his face flushed red!
If it wasn't for Snape's hard-headedness at this moment, the blood pressure that exploded would have blown Tianling Gai away!

"Stupid! Are you brewing a gold blast potion? How on earth do you make a scabies potion? Huh?!"

Snape was so angry that he was going to fly while dealing with the remaining liquid medicine.

When Snape got angry, Neville on one side immediately entered an "emergency state".

Neville was so nervous that he stuttered, the more anxious he became, the more clumsy he became, and he was about to throw the medicine in his hand into the cauldron.

Thanks to Ted for grabbing his hand, "The porcupine quills can't be put in while the cauldron is heating!"

In the original book, he made this mistake, directly burning the crucible through, and getting boils and pimples all over himself.

Neville put down the porcupine quill tremblingly: "Thank you, Ted."

Snape on the side obviously couldn't see the scene of this long-lasting friendship, "Ha! Does our Mr. Epifani think that he can already teach others? How arrogant!"

"For interfering with others brewing the potion, 5 points will be deducted from Ravenclaw!" Snape had a smug expression on his face.

Ted was also delighted!

Professor, the task of deducting points will be entrusted to you, don't be shy, just deduct it to death!

Even Professor Flitwick wouldn't blame Snape for deducting points from him. Isn't there hope for this mission?

What a beauty!

He wanted to take the opportunity to expand his results, so he tried to argue: "Professor, I don't feel that I can teach others. I just want to prevent Neville from burning through his cauldron."

Snape smiled mockingly again: "It seems that you are well aware of the consequences of such a stupid approach... Contradicting the professor, another 5 points will be deducted!"

Ted: Professor, you are awesome~
At this moment, Neville finally couldn't help it anymore, "No, no, it's not Ted's fault, it's me, me..."

However, Snape seemed to have a "specialization on Neville", just a glance over his eyes made him hold back his words.

"Ha, the Boy Who Lived - Longbottom. What do you want to say? Or do you want to use your pot of poison to thank your friends? Don't tell me that everything I said was ignored, only Epiphany's words you Did you just listen? If you don’t listen carefully, 5 points will be deducted from Gryffindor!"

After spitting out some venom, Neville's eyes were tearing up.

At this time, Malfoy finally found a chance. He was laughing when Ted deducted points just now, and now he even laughed softly: "Ha, the boy who survived by luck is a snot-nosed~"

Snape pretended not to hear it.

Harry, Ron and the others glared at the master and apprentice, wishing they could pour the potion in the cauldron.

……

After class was over, Snape floated away with his textbooks in his arms like a big bat.

The Malfoy trio talked and laughed loudly while glancing at Ted and the others, looking like a villain.

Harley, Hermione and the others all defended Ted and Neville.

"Sirius said long ago that Snape, an old bat, is vicious! If you ask me, he didn't explain how vicious Snape is." Harry was indignant.

Ted looked at her: Neville is all angry for you!

Hermione was also indignant, and seriously despised Snape for not adding or deducting points for his answers.

Ron Jerry cursed Snape in a low voice for losing his hair and becoming bald.

Neville was sobbing carefully.

Ted patted him on the shoulder: "Neville, the world will not treat you with any tenderness because of your tears. Don't expose your weakness to others, except relatives and friends."

At this time, there should really be a song "Hogwarts Doesn't Believe in Tears"!
"But if you are really sad, we will be your most loyal listeners. If one day we want to cry, you will comfort us, right?"

Neville wiped away his tears and nodded emphatically.

In short, Neville's class was very difficult.

Ted is very good, although no points are added, but points are deducted!

One deduction is 10 points!Snape is worth several professors~
But to be honest, Snape didn't target Harry, which made Ted a little concerned.

You've changed, you're no longer that venomous Snape for Pot!

Even Ted felt that Snape paid too much attention to Harry.

That's right, although he didn't say a word, Ted was keenly aware that Snape always paid special attention to Harry.

So much so that Ted, Ron and others who got close to Harley and talked small things in class also paid attention.

Part of the reason why I was targeted was because of my "excellent" performance, and on the other hand, it might be because of being implicated by Harley.

Now she is not targeted, and she distributes the targeting to her friends.

Sure enough, the target will not disappear, it will only transfer~
……

I slept late tonight because there was an astronomy class in the middle of the night.

The astronomy class is on the astronomy tower, which is the tallest place in the entire castle.Just climbing the spiral steps has already given some students motion sickness~
The professor of astronomy is Professor Aurora Sinista, a woman who doesn't look very old, and doesn't seem to exist in the original book.

The second-hand binoculars that Ted bought earlier worked.

It's just that Ted's second-hand binoculars are really worthy of the price of second-hand goods, and they can't see clearly.

Fortunately, I can rub Hermione's binoculars to see.

Someone may ask, is it romantic to climb upstairs to watch the stars in the middle of the night?
What do wizards study astronomy for?Do you also want to develop aerospace technology?
In fact, it is not the case. Since ancient times, human beings have had an infinite yearning for celestial bodies.Be it Muggles or wizards.

The celestial bodies actually have powerful magic power, and their movements and trajectories are used by wizards after long-term observation.

It's just that that part belongs to ritual magic, which is very advanced and not taught in schools.

Ritual magic can often do many "miracles" with a very small amount of magic power!
Because this is a kind of making the best use of the situation and following the trend.

Astronomy is often used in advanced ritual magic, because it is necessary to choose the day and time, such as "the planet moves to the correct position", "lunar eclipse", "nine stars in succession", "comet strikes the moon" and so on~
And many human festivals have become festivals because of their unique magic power.Like Halloween, Easter, Christmas...

It's just that thousands of years have passed, and the original intention of the festival has been distorted in legends and stories.

However, for Ted, the knowledge in this area is a bit too obscure, and it is far from the time for his own research.

There is no need to waste energy now, it is enough to learn the knowledge in the textbook.

In the blink of an eye, it was already Thursday, and this afternoon was Ted's first Defense Against the Dark Arts class.Go with Gryffindor.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts class is still very popular among young wizards.

Transfiguration is too obscure and difficult, and the homework writing makes one's scalp tingle.

The magic spell has only taught the fluorescent spell so far, and I have to practice it repeatedly.

Although herbalism is interesting, it is always messy and tiring.Sometimes dangerous!

History of Magic is simply a catch-up class.

Potions class Snape had already pronounced everyone an idiot.

Now Defense Against the Dark Arts and flying lessons are still in the happy dreams of little wizards.

It's just that I'm afraid they will be disappointed.
