hogwarts blast

At eight o'clock in the evening, Kyle came to Snape's gloomy office on time.

Snape, with a cold face, pointed to a table next to his desk. There were all kinds of basic potion materials on and beside the table.

"There is only one teaching content tonight, which is to learn how to handle potion materials."

Kyle looked at the knives, mortars, crucibles and other equipment on the table, and then looked at the dead toads, slimy slugs, and plant roots covered in black unknown substances in the big wooden barrels next to the table...

…

If he guessed correctly, those condensed black unknown objects should be...

Dragon dung.

It's still very fresh, no more than forty-eight hours since it was produced.

Kyle's whole body was in bad shape.

Is the old bat taking revenge on himself?

After all, yesterday he was kiting Snape all the way from the castle underground to the third floor. Not only did Snape become exhausted, he was also embarrassed.

Seemingly aware of Kyle's thoughts, Snape spoke sadly:

"Any potion master cannot do without a solid foundation. If you want to learn potions well, just start by learning how to handle potion materials."

He threw over a tattered notebook, and Kyle flipped through it. All the records in it were about how to process potion materials.

Many of these processing techniques are somewhat different from the potions textbooks they use now.

If Kyle guessed correctly, this should be a more effective and advanced processing method developed by Snape himself.

Okay! Done!

Before taking action, Kyle cast a head soaking spell on himself to block out the disgusting smell emitted by the messy animal materials, and sat down at the table with a tragic expression on his face.

If you didn't know better, you would have thought that he was preparing to die heroically in the execution ground.

"Practice cutting techniques first." Snape reminded as Kyle was about to reach out to catch the toad.

Kyle's outstretched hand turned to the daisy root next to him.

Before picking up the daisy root, he first used his wand to clean the daisy root. After cleaning off the dragon dung on it, he dared to reach out and pick up the daisy root.

Snape stared at Kyle's cutting technique and couldn't find any fault with it. He snorted coldly.

Then Snape no longer looked at Kyle, who was immersed in chopping daisy roots, but returned to his cauldron and continued his work of brewing the potion.

In the quiet office, the only sounds left were the gurgling of the potion boiling and the rustling of a knife cutting daisy roots.

"Duh! Duh! Duh!" A sudden loud noise broke the tranquility.

Snape was startled by the sudden sound.

He turned his head suddenly and found Kyle holding up a huge bone chopping knife, chopping and chopping the daisy roots in front of him.

I don’t know when there was a thick cutting board on the table. The sound just now was caused by the collision between the bone chopping knife and the cutting board.

Snape shouted angrily: "What are you doing! Do you think this is your Hufflepuff kitchen!"

After hearing Snape's words, Kyle slashed down with the kitchen knife in his hand, and most of the blade sank into the cutting board.

This violent action made Snape's brows jump instantly.

He almost wanted to pull out his wand to defend himself.

"Professor, I think using a knife is too slow. It would be faster to use a kitchen knife." Kyle explained calmly.

Snape's face turned dark, and he walked to the table and casually picked up a handful of daisy roots and examined them.

He found that what Kyle cut with a kitchen knife was exactly the same size as the one cut with a knife. In addition to the size, the shape was also just right, fully meeting the standards for potion materials.

And if you use a kitchen knife, you can cut a large handful with one stroke, but you can only cut one piece at a time with a silver knife.

This made Snape's face darken even more.

"You no longer need to practice cutting the material," he placed a large basket of figs in front of Kyle, "now practice peeling them."

The way he just cut the daisy roots with a kitchen knife opened the door to a new world for Kyle.

Why must he use conventional methods to process potion ingredients?

As long as the same result can be achieved, any method can be used, right?

Didn't Snape also make certain improvements to the processing techniques in the potions textbook?

Thinking of this, Kyle took out his wand.

Seeing Kyle take out the wand, Snape frowned and sprayed venom.

"Think about it with your brain, which is no smarter than a troll. Do you need a wand to peel a fig?"

Kyle was not annoyed, placed a fig on the table in front of him, raised his wand and said: "The Divine Edge has no shadow."

An invisible blade flashed past, Kyle stretched out his hand and pulled, and the fig's peel was peeled off easily.

Snape's face suddenly twitched.

You use black magic to skin figs?

The hell did you use my Shen Feng Wuying to do this?

Snape wanted to pry open Kyle's skull and see how his brain circuits grew.

Seeing Kyle pick up the second fig, Snape snatched the fig from his hand and said without any emotion: "Change it to a toad!"

The nature of Shenfeng's shadowless black magic will attach the power of curse to the wounds it leaves, which is why it can inhibit wound healing.

It doesn't matter if it's a fig, but if it's used on a toad, the toad won't be able to be used as a material.

But that doesn't mean there's nothing Kyle can do.

An invisible blade extended from the front of his wand.

This time Kyle did not cast Snape's self-created Shadowless Blade, but a variant of the Cutting Curse, the one Haza had given him in Professor Flitwick's Charms class.

The skin of the toad's back was cut open with a single cut. Kyle dispersed the blade at the front of the wand, and then with a flick of the wand, he peeled out a naked toad.

He didn't need to come into direct contact with the toad the whole time, which made Snape's plan to prank him fail.

A slimy slug was thrown onto the table in front of Kyle by Snape with a snap.

"Eviscerate it and steam it."

This was what they learned in their first Potions class, and Kyle had already learned it by heart.

Now Snape took it out again and said that it was not used to disgust him, but Kyle definitely didn't believe it.

But Kyle is not helpless.

Clean up can be used as a disappearing spell to a certain extent. As long as the things to be cleaned are limited to the internal organs of slugs, it can have a perfect treatment effect.

In a short while, Kyle had finished processing a whole bucket of slugs, and then started cooking the slugs.

He used his transformation technique to create a large stack of steamers for steaming buns, arranged the slugs neatly inside the steamers, stacked the cages high, and then skillfully lit a fire.

Seeing that the style of the office was changing towards the kitchen, Snape handed over another pile of materials with an expressionless expression.

"Grinding." Snape said simply and to the point.

Kyle glanced at the material and saw it was snake teeth.

With a wave of the magic wand, the empty table next to him instantly turned into a huge stone mill.

Kyle poured a large bag of snake teeth into it, and under the influence of magic, the stone mill automatically started spinning.

After a while, Kyle scooped out a large scoop of snake tooth powder.

Snape, whose eyes were twitching, once again changed the material to Kyle.

"Juicing."

When Kyle used Transfiguration again to conjure a juicer, Snape gave up.

"Get out and come back at eight o'clock tomorrow night."

Looking at the stern Snape, Kyle was not afraid at all and even wanted to laugh.

When leaving the office, Kyle suddenly stopped.

"Professor Snape..."

"Is there anything else?" The old bat's tone was a little impatient.

"It's time to wash your hair." Before the old bat could react and get angry, Kyle ran away.

Only Kyle's voice echoed in the air: "You are so far away from me, I can still smell the grease on your head!"

A divine blade cut through the door of the office directly.

After Kyle walked away, Snape walked to the damaged door with a dark face and cast a restoration spell.

He regretted why he couldn't control it just now. Now that it's better, the protective magic on the door has to be re-activated.
