Chapter 239 Harry's Change
·
Wo Bu Geng Xin
The look on Harry's face was surprisingly calm.And in the heart that no one can peek into.He is ecstatic.
Sure enough, what you learn is what you learn, and if you memorize the potion formula, you have memorized it.Those things learned in advance can be used!Really useful!
The students present all looked at Harry with shocked eyes.In their cognition, Harry is not a scumbag in Potions.But how can it be possible to have a very good learning effect when studying with a repelling mentality?
Harry's Potions grades had always been only passable.There is no idea of previewing beforehand either.No one expected Harry to be able to answer such a question.
Taylor was not surprised.
Luke looked at Taylor and said with his eyes: "Is this the student you taught?"
Taylor shook his head slightly: "This is Harry's own choice."
The recipe she gave Harry didn't go to this level of depth.There is no need to use a wand, and the use of refined potions is relatively useless.
Basically, the shape and effect look exaggerated.
And Harry's current reserve of knowledge is undoubtedly the result of special needs under the influence of Taylor, or in other words, under the influence of actual needs.
It can only be said that according to Taylor's prediction, the effect is surprisingly good.
Snape looked at Harry suspiciously: "Among the Polyjuice Potion, what are the two most important things to prepare in advance?"
Polyjuice Potion has an equally strong reputation in the wizarding world.And the brewing difficulty and brewing time of this kind of potion are also the longest batch of potions.
Little wizards have heard of it at most, although the cooking process can be found in books.But how many people will care?
"The lacewings need to be boiled for 21 days, and the sap grass also needs to be picked during the full moon. Including the cooking of other materials, the whole process will take about a month!"
Harry replied confidently again.If you ask him to boil a potion on the spot, he may not succeed.But if you want to take a theory test, then Harry will have someone to chat with you.
Looking at Harry's confident little expression, there was even a little bit of complacency in it.This made Snape's eyes even darker.But in the next moment, Snape instantly regained his composure, with even a little regret on his expression.
"Mr. Potter, cheating is bad behavior."
After saying this, Potter couldn't take it anymore.
"I didn't cheat! Professor!"
Harry's original complacent expression was replaced by anger and humiliation almost instantly.This is simply an insult to his personality.
Harry admitted that he copied his homework and tried to cheat in exams.But this kind of thing he knows, there is no need to cheat.
Luke, who was watching the play, gave a 'tsk', glanced at Snape, and couldn't help feeling that Snape's skills were superb.As a professor, such doubts don't even need any reason.There is no point in verifying it.
However, if this kind of words are said, some people will doubt it.Of course, this is also because Harry's progress is indeed too great.This kind of thing was placed on Taylor, and no one would reply to Snape's cheating. ... But if it was Harry, someone would believe it.
Snape knew he should just ignore it now and start teaching.And stop questioning Harry for the entire class.This would give Harry the most aggrieved experience.
But looking at those angry eyes, his movements and thoughts paused.
Luke, who was good at perceiving emotions, and Taylor, who was good at reading other people's thoughts, couldn't help looking at Professor Snape again.They also know that a turning point is coming.
"Oh~ Then, Mr. Potter, why don't you brew a potion."
With that said, Snape got up straight away, and walked towards the herb cupboard on one side.
Harry's heart skipped a beat on the spot.He did memorize a lot of theories.But potion science doesn't mean that if you memorize a lot of theories, you will be able to perform well.Especially brewing potions.This is a discipline that depends on talent and experience.
Harry subconsciously looked at Taylor.But Tyler ignored him completely.For this kind of thing, since you have chosen to go to the end, then don't think about relying on others.
Luke shook his head in the face of Harry's begging gaze, indicating that there was nothing he could do.
Of course, what he really wanted to say was...
"Be content, I'll give you another chance. If it's someone else, you'll have to finish this class in a sullen tone, and you'll even be taken seriously."
This Harry!It's just that you don't know the blessing when you are in the blessing.
Looking at Snape's back, Harry really wanted to say, "Professor, with you, I am really convinced."
But he dared not say it.And he also knew that if he didn't do well this time, he would have to carry out the name of cheating to the end.
So even though he knew that he might encounter challenges, Harry was still fully prepared.
"Taylor. Go to the podium and show everyone the potion to be brewed in this class."
Snape said to Taylor without raising his head while looking for the herbs he needed in the herb cupboard.
"Okay, Professor."
Taylor responded lightly, then got up and walked to the podium.
The students were a little surprised when faced with such a situation.Although this kind of thing happened occasionally in the last school year, it was only when the results of other students' preparations were not good, the professor would let Taylor go up for an extra demonstration, and he would correct some bad habits and There is a small problem with the steps.
But it's different now.It seemed that Professor Snape had fully believed in Taylor's ability to brew potions.This kind of thing is ordered so casually, it is obvious that Taylor's ability has been fully recognized.
Taylor was also polite, walked up to the podium generously, briefly glanced at the prepared potion ingredients, then glanced at the formula, nodded after confirming that he had guessed correctly, and then started brewing the potion .
After Tyler started teaching, Luke suddenly became aware of a blind spot.
Without Taylor's assistance by his side, the difficulty of refining medicine suddenly changed from super easy to normal difficulty.That is to say, after the end of the last school year, his talent in Potions has improved, otherwise, Luke is planning to show it directly now. ...and on the other hand, Snape wasn't busy for too long.The ingredients for the potion were quickly found and placed on Harry's table.
"Need me to prepare a recipe for you, Mr. Potter?"
Snape said the concerned words in a teasing tone.
Harry, on the other hand, glanced at the things on the table, daisy roots, fig peels, caterpillars, a small drop of leech juice, and mouse spleen.
Harry breathed a sigh of relief.
"There is no need for a professor. It is to refine the shrinking potion, right!"
Harry looked at Snape confidently and said.There was no extra expression on Snape's face, he just nodded silently.
"Just wait and see, Professor Snape!"
After speaking, Harry lowered his head and began to heat his cauldron.
Shrinking potion, this is a potion they can only learn in the third grade.In fact, Snape and other professors also know that their teaching progress is a bit slow for some students.For example, in the spell class, Luke's mastery of spells has surpassed most of the students in the sixth and seventh grades.In Potions class, what Taylor learned was no longer what a student should learn.
But now it seems that the brewing of potions in the third grade should not be difficult for Harry in front of him.
Snape's eyes were a little complicated.Watching Harry's actions, he couldn't help but think of Lily after all.Lily is very good at potions.And he is very interested in brewing potions, and is even liked by Professor Slughorn.You must know that Professor Slughorn's consideration of students is not simply the talent of Potions.Most of the people in the Slug Club are pure blood nobles.
And Lily is one of the rare Muggle-born wizards.
Now, has Lily's son also developed a posthumous interest in potions?
Is this... a good thing or a bad thing?
Looking at those unforgettable eyes and that disgusting face.Snape felt extremely complicated for a moment.
The potions brewed by other students are very simple.They were no longer the kind of little wizards who had to practice with Snape making potion formulas in the last school year.They can already brew some potions that will appear on the market.
In the eyes of some students who want to save money, they can buy less potions now.
It is definitely impossible to take it out and buy it.After all, the potions they brewed themselves were not as stable in effect as the potions sold in bulk on the market.The cost of making it yourself is only a little cheaper than the price of these simple potions in the market.
If you take it out and buy it, even if you can buy it out, the price will not be competitive.Because if the price is lowered, it will already be a waste of time for unskilled beginners.
Of course, if there is a need for practice, it is a different matter.
After their potions were brewed, Taylor checked and accepted them one by one.Among them, Seamus blew up his own cauldron again.Luke doesn't even know how he does it, and nearly half of the courses in a semester will explode.
Neville's potion was very ineffective, barely reaching the passing mark. It could be said that such potion could not even be sold at the cost price.However, considering that Neville succeeded after just one try, it is enough to see Neville's progress.So Taylor also gave Neville the pass. ... As for the others, there is no big problem.Luke's potion works just fine, and Hermione's potion works surprisingly well.Obviously, he has his own new ideas for brewing potions.
With Taylor properly releasing the water, everyone had a very happy Potions class.
Of course, such a happy potion class was obtained by sacrificing a savior.
"For the first time, I feel that the title of Harry's savior is so suitable."
Luke joked with Hermione beside him.
After listening to Luke's words, Hermione also helped her forehead helplessly.Luke really makes people feel nervous when he is serious, and it really makes people feel dumbfounded when he is not serious.
"Professor. Done!"
While Luke was joking, Harry also finished brewing his shrinking potion.Looking at the bright blue shrink agent, Harry couldn't help showing a proud smile on his face.
And when he looked up, he found that Snape was still in the original posture, probably during the period of refining the medicine, staring at him, motionless.Harry couldn't help slandering in his heart: "Is that why you don't trust me? Make a shrink potion and watch from the sidelines..."
But Snape didn't care about Harry's little emotions, he watched Harry's brewing all the way, although the technique was unfamiliar.But bold and careful, but also able to concentrate.Judging from the state of devotion, it is a lie to say that he doesn't like potion brewing.
"That's right, you're done. Judging from the state, the effect should be pretty good."
Snape nodded, looked at the shrink agent and said, "It seems that Mr. Potter really put in effort to study during the vacation."
After speaking, he turned and walked towards the podium.
This class is almost over.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.It seemed that the first Potions class of the new school year was passed without any risk.
Harry was also happy for his smooth pass.He swung his arm vigorously, but accidentally smashed his elbow on the big spoon used to brew the potion.The big spoon stood up and hit Harry on the forehead.
Harry clutched his head in pain.The students around laughed loudly.
And in the midst of laughter.Snape's cold voice sounded again.
"Five points, Gryffindor. A shrinking agent for Mr. Potter."
The scene changed from noisy to silent in an instant.
Even Harry looked at Snape in disbelief.He actually got extra points from Snape?
Ron was even more horrified.What's wrong with this world?Did Merlin crawl out of the ground?
Snape didn't respond, just with a cold face, and then said: "Slytherin, plus ten points. For Miss Barbara's wonderful lecture. Of course, next time I need you to substitute for a class, I hope you can show me my normal class." Ask to come."
"Good professor."
Taylor responded with a smile.
When the bell rang, Snape waved his hand: "get out of class is over, everyone."
"Goodbye! Professor Snape!"
When they walked out of the classroom, most of the students still had expressions of disbelief.Of course, no matter it was Harry's extra points or Taylor's extra points, they were all convinced.
After all, one is the refining of potions that are only learned in the third grade.The other directly takes the class instead of the professor.
"Harry has changed a lot."
Hermione looked at Harry who was fighting with Ron in front, and said so.
Luke nodded: "But...it's a good thing."
And at this moment, Luke suddenly heard a hoarse voice.
"Blood, kill, eat..."
Luke frowned suddenly.
It was the sound of the basilisk...he had always thought the basilisk had been awakened by Voldemort.And now it seems that it is not.It could be hunger, or it could be a set time to wake up.After all, Luke was with Voldemort's Horcrux last night, and he knew very well that Voldemort had no time to go to the Chamber of Secrets.
But Luke didn't care.After all, with regard to the basilisk, it would be best for him to wait for the situation to escalate and appear as a savior.
but……
"Heir, prophecy, Gaunt! Come! Chamber of Secrets!".

It was the sound of the basilisk...he had always thought the basilisk had been awakened by Voldemort.And now it seems that it is not.It could be hunger, or it could be a set time to wake up.After all, Luke was with Voldemort's Horcrux last night, and he knew very well that Voldemort had no time to go to the Chamber of Secrets.
But Luke didn't care.After all, with regard to the basilisk, it would be best for him to wait for the situation to escalate and appear as a savior.
