Learn magic from Hogwarts
Chapter 61: A Recognized Genius
As expected, their Professor Snape was unusually late for this club event.
However, the young wizards who had experienced Snape's venomous tongue did not show any slack because of the professor's lateness, and began to study on their own quite spontaneously.
They consciously went to get some crucibles and potion ingredients, and honestly began to brew the potion.
About a week has passed, and many people have new ideas during this period, so there will be some discussions from time to time.
Noah was still in the same group as Lu, but compared to last time, Lu was obviously much more cautious this time. He did not take action as soon as he came up, but carefully wrote down the potion formula first and gave it to Noah to look at.
Noah, who has read two books, is equivalent to having previewed the second and third grade textbooks. This recipe is easy to understand. The only thing he lacks now is practice.
The formula is nothing special, it's quite satisfactory. Compared with the original formula, it just adds a little sneezeweed syrup, which is a blue viscous liquid extracted from the flowering plant called sneezeweed.
Although many sneezeweeds are poisonous, these extracts are surprisingly not very toxic and are instead a very good soothing pharmaceutical material.
It's quite satisfactory. It shouldn't have a big impact on the effect of the medicine, but it won't make any improvement. At most, it will ease the effect of the medicine.
Noah could only guess based on the existing materials. He still needed to make a pot to see how it went.
After confirming for the second time from Noah that there would be no conflicting materials, Lu planned to start brewing the potion.
As soon as he set up the crucible, the classroom door suddenly opened and Professor Snape walked in resolutely.
The late professor's expression was more gloomy than before. He glanced at the people in the classroom and walked to the podium: "I'm late, I'm sorry. You are still a little self-conscious."
Even the apology still seemed stiff, sounding more perfunctory than an apology.
However, no one will express dissatisfaction with this. Students who can come here know what this professor represents.
However, this professor does have a bad temper, and it is common to express his anger. However, he is never stingy in teaching. At most, he is too venomous.
Professor Snape was quite satisfied with this, so his expression softened a little.
Now show me what you have accomplished in a week. You have two hours.
The young wizards nodded and quickly started brewing today's potion.
Noah originally planned to go with Lu, but his name was called.
"Lannister, come here."
Noah glanced at his senior partner, put down the potion ingredients in his hand, and walked to the podium.
Of course, he also took the two elementary potion books with him when he left.
"I remember I said, I will check your progress." Professor Snape motioned for him to put down the book and stand still to wait for questions.
Noah obeyed.
"Recipe for sobriety agent."
"Snake fangs, wolfsbane aconite, dried Billywig stings, standard ingredients."
"Name a use for mandarin grass."
"Can be used to make beauty potions."
"If I wanted to make a shrinkage potion, which part of the mouse would I take?"
"Mouse spleen."
"What other materials are there?"
"Wrinkled figs, daisy roots, caterpillars, mugwort, leeches, hemlock essence."
At this point in the question, Professor Snape stopped asking and stared at Noah with his dark eyes: "Excellent memory."
He said again: "I memorized the knowledge of two potion books in one week, which is a great achievement. But if you feel proud of it, then you'd better not show it in front of me."
"No one hates geniuses, but," he paused, "genius requires more than just memory. I hope you know that."
"Yes, Professor." Noah listened humbly and did not show any arrogance.
Professor Snape withdrew his gaze: "Now you can go and brew the potion."
Noah was about to go back when he heard him say: "Make a pot of it yourself."
"Okay, Professor." Noah understood what Snape meant.
He didn't have to stick with Lu, Snape let him try to improve the formula on his own.
Although ordinary antidotes had only been brewed by watching the road before, Noah had also seen the changes in the brewing of the magic potion.
After that, he also borrowed a lot of related books from the library and found fourteen improved formulas for this common potion, and he did have some ideas about it.
At present, most of the improvement methods are to change a certain flavor material or add or reduce certain materials, and the effects of the modification are also strange.
But there is one ingredient that no one has ever tried to change: the standard ingredients.
As a composite material that can be used in a variety of potions, its function is probably like the compound spices that Tuchao must add when cooking. The wizard who makes the potion does not need to know the specific ingredients and proportions of these materials. He only needs to
Just put it in when needed.
However, Noah carefully studied this compounding material and found that although these materials can be widely used, the proportions can actually be slightly changed for certain potions.
So Noah planned to start from here.
Of course, he would not be foolish enough to recreate a standard batch of ingredients with changed proportions. He would only need to slightly increase the amounts of a few individual ingredients based on the original ones.
It's not very difficult, but grinding is more time-consuming.
But two hours is still enough.
When Noah started to get the materials, the other little wizards couldn't help but look at him frequently.
When they saw him preparing a new set of cauldrons, the other little wizards guessed what Snape had just said to him.
Professor Snape actually recognized the strength of a first-year wizard and asked him to directly start trying to improve potions?!
They were all allowed to try to improve potions after studying for a semester, and this first-year little wizard only came to one activity!
Is this genius? Genius that even Professor Snape admits?
The eyes of the young wizards looking at Noah gradually became meaningful.
Noah didn't pay attention to the eyes of others. He carefully measured the measurements of the materials and added them one by one in strict accordance with the standards. Snape was quite satisfied with his ready attitude.
So Professor Snape stood directly beside Noah, giving various instructions in a roaring manner from time to time.
Noah was calm throughout the whole process, Professor Snape had a cold face throughout, and the other young wizards suddenly saw the "harmony" between the two.
Other little wizards: "..."
Probably because their eyes were becoming more and more blatant, Professor Snape cast an impatient gaze: "Do you think I can improve your potions? Or do you expect me to teach you step by step?"
