Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

Professor Slughorn had just announced the awarding of points, and the Gryffindor students were already getting restless.

At this point, even the dumbest among them should have understood Professor Slughorn's intention.

So, a Gryffindor girl with braided hair immediately raised her hand and said, "Professor, while you haven't announced the answer yet, why not let us try too!"

"Haha, Miss McLaggen, this little test of mine is not only to see if you have prepared your lessons in advance but also to test your courage. Since Mr. Li and Mr. Riddle raised their hands first and answered correctly first, they are the winners. If you were so confident, why didn't you raise your hand immediately?"

Professor Slughorn's words silenced the Gryffindor students.

Was he saying that their Gryffindor courage was inferior to that of two Slytherins?

A great humiliation!

Several troublemakers from Gryffindor were already looking at Li Weide and Tom with dangerous eyes.

Li Weide and Tom ignored their barbed gazes.

Gryffindor and Slytherin were already at odds, so being hostile was unavoidable.

Anyway, whether it's fighting Slytherin or fighting Gryffindor, what difference does it make?

Slughorn then announced the answer and spread out Li Weide and Tom's notes for everyone to see.

Sure enough, their answers were the same as Professor Slughorn's.

"Come, Weide, Tom, come up and receive my little gift for you." Professor Slughorn took out two small glass bottles from his pocket.

Each of the two glass bottles contained a tiny drop of golden liquid...

Tom looked at the liquid in the bottle with some suspicion, hesitant to speak.

"Professor, this is too precious!" Li Weide said.

"Oh? It seems you know what this potion is?" Professor Slughorn asked pleasantly.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be Felix Felicis," Li Weide said. "That's really too precious. We just passed a small test, it's not worth it..."

"No, you are worth it." Professor Slughorn smiled and said, "I have taught many students, and although you are still young, I dare say that you will definitely be among the best. My judgment has always been very accurate... So, I think you need more encouragement!"

Professor Slughorn had always been confident in his judgment. As long as he favored a student, none of them turned out to be ordinary after graduation.

And Li Weide and Tom gave him an even stronger feeling!

Whether it was their love for potions or their courage and strength to fight against many at such a young age, all of this indicated that these two students were not ordinary.

Most importantly, even Professor Slughorn could feel the hostility of other Slytherin students and Gryffindor students towards them.

However, these two children remained fearless! This was undoubtedly even more precious.

So, when he asked them to come up and receive their gifts, he quietly replaced the original prize with the precious Felix Felicis.

For Slughorn, discovering these students with outstanding talents and bringing them into his circle was his greatest hobby.

After all, these students who were full of goodwill towards him and were extremely talented would become a part of his deep network of contacts after graduation, no matter what profession they pursued!

...

Felix Felicis was also known as Liquid Luck, so even students who were least interested in potions had heard of this potion.

So, when the students heard that the prize was actually Felix Felicis, they all looked at Li Weide and Tom with envious eyes.

And on the Gryffindor side, several students looked regretful, including Miss McLaggen.

They all felt that if they hadn't hesitated just now, this Felix Felicis might have been theirs!

Since things had been said to this point, Li Weide and Tom had no choice but to accept.

After thanking him, they happily returned to their seats.

Tom is now excited and feels like his drowsiness has been swept away!

"Alright, let's move on to learning how to make Pimple Potion." Professor Slughorn pulled over a blackboard and quickly wrote down the precautions for brewing Pimple Potion on it.

"Who knows what kind of potion this is? Miss McLaggen!"

"This is a highly effective potion for treating measles, pimples, and other symptoms of lymph node tuberculosis. It is a powerful potion with a strong nature. Care must be taken when brewing the potion. Incorrect preparation can cause this potion to create pimples instead of curing them..."

"Ah! A very standard answer. It seems that you have indeed prepared the textbook very carefully, Miss McLaggen! You have earned 5 points for Gryffindor!" Slughorn said pleasantly.

Although McLaggen was not as dazzling as Li Weide and Tom, she was also the kind of student he liked.

However, McLaggen's mood did not improve because of this.

She didn't think she was worse than Li Weide and Tom, but they were able to get Felix Felicis and even get 20 points each!

Obviously, this was not fair!

Professor Slughorn didn't know what she was thinking, and even if he did, he wouldn't think there was anything wrong with his approach.

Naturally, he would favor the students of his own house a lot...

Next, after Professor Slughorn explained the brewing process of Pimple Potion again, he asked them to practice in pairs.

Li Weide sighed and teamed up with Tom.

"Alright, I can't escape it after all. Tom, I just hope you don't blow up the cauldron... Annie, are you seriously backing away half a step?"

As the two began to cooperate, Tom suddenly heard Li Weide's voice in his ear.

"When adding porcupine quills later, add a little more porcupine quill powder."

Tom looked at Li Weide in surprise because this sentence was said using the Muffliato Charm!

"Speak, who are you trying to harm this time?"

"What are you talking about! When have I ever harmed anyone?"

"Alright... Then how much is a little more?"

Li Weide picked out a small spoon from the tools and silently placed it next to Tom.

"Use this, half a spoon."

"Do you really want me to blow up the cauldron?"

"It won't explode, and it won't affect the quality of the potion, but because it's powder, some will splash out."

"Do you want to grow pimples all over your face?"

"Of course not, I'll explain this to you later."

As Li Weide spoke, he took a small step back, revealing Annie next to him.

Seeing this, Tom immediately understood.

The two cooperated, and the brewing process of Pimple Potion was progressing rapidly.

Professor Slughorn watched from the side, nodding in satisfaction.

Tom's operation was as standard as a textbook.

And Li Weide was even more amazing.

Especially his meticulous and somewhat outrageous knife skills and the speed at which he processed the potion ingredients.

All of this surprised Professor Slughorn.

Everything was flawless!

Before Li Weide transmigrated, he was the youngest expert in biology. It could be said that it was commonplace for him to use knives to make specimens or even dissect them.

So, doing things like processing potion ingredients was really too familiar to him.

Li Weide and Tom were also a little secretly anxious. If Professor Slughorn kept staring at them, they wouldn't be able to cheat...

Fortunately, before long, there was a small mishap on the Gryffindor side. Someone messed up the steps, and the cauldron started burning violently!

"Don't panic!" Professor Slughorn walked over quickly.

Tom breathed a sigh of relief, quickly proceeded to the last step, and then took the cauldron away from the flame.

Li Weide handed over a processed porcupine quill.

Tom threw the porcupine quill into the cauldron and waited for the Pimple Potion in the cauldron to react.

Li Weide quietly handed over a small bottle.

The bottle contained porcupine quill powder.

Tom glanced at Professor Slughorn's back and then quickly opened the bottle and used the small spoon to scoop out half a spoonful.

Li Weide nodded, and Tom immediately sprinkled the powder into the cauldron...

"Boom!"

The Pimple Potion that was slowly taking shape in the cauldron suddenly exploded!

"Ouch!"

Li Weide, who was prepared, exclaimed while deftly dodging.

The potion that had not completely turned into Pimple Potion instantly splashed towards Annie.

Because of Li Weide's deliberate exclamation, Annie was reminded.

When she saw the splashing potion, Annie also looked a little flustered, but the hand holding the wand was not slow at all.

"Whoosh!"

Before those potions could get close to Annie, she sent them back!

"Sizzle!"

The potion fell back into the cauldron, making a harsh sound.

"Sorry. I knew Tom would blow up the cauldron!" Li Weide quickly said to Annie, who was on guard.

Tom looked at Li Weide in astonishment. Good fellow, you sold me out again?

Professor Slughorn had just finished dealing with the accident over there and immediately walked over after hearing the noise.

"What's wrong? Oh... Tom, you used a spoon that was stained with porcupine quill powder, right? That won't do. Although it won't damage the potion, it will also cause the potion to splash out because the reaction is too violent. There is a reason why such a limited amount is specified."

"I..."

"That's right, I told him, but he insisted on using it." Li Weide said, "I almost got Annie."

Annie put away her wand and smiled, "It's okay, luckily I didn't switch places with you."

Tom closed his mouth. This dog thief is as doggy as ever...

He was the one who wanted to test Annie, but he still refused to take the blame himself!

This must be revenge for not buying his potion!

This dog thief!

Forget it... I'm used to it...

In the distance, McLaggen also noticed this scene and curled her lips in disdain.

Is that all? An accident happened while brewing a Pimple Potion. With this level, can they still get Felix Felicis?

...

The Potions class finally ended.

Tom walked out of the classroom exhausted.

He asked using the Muffliato Charm: "I sacrificed so much, did you find out anything?"

Li Weide said: "There are results."

"What results?"

"The result is that Annie is not Grindelwald in disguise."

Tom: ?
