#90 - Learn support spells
On Friday morning, there were two consecutive Potions classes. Normally, Snape would only ask Harry questions in this class.
But today, after questioning Harry, he turned his attention to Ron.
"Bat spleens were just covered, Harry Potter. Didn't you remember that either? Is your brain full of mush!"
......
"Porcupine quills caused an accident for a certain foolish little lion in this classroom, Weasley. Don't tell me you've forgotten all about that too!"
Snape was unusually angry today, even changing the originally asked herbology knowledge to animal-based potion ingredient knowledge.
After sending Harry and Ron to the back of the classroom as punishment, Snape walked to Moon's side.
"Mr. Scarlett, I heard that you single-handedly defeated a troll, so please tell me what parts of a troll can be used for potions!"
With Ron and Harry's example before them, all the Gryffindor students now focused their attention on Moon.
Snape consciously suppressed Gryffindor, causing these little lions to unconsciously form a sense of shared honor.
"Troll hair is a very good stabilizer. When refining some potions that are prone to explosion or violent reactions, adding some treated troll hair can make the potion relatively mild."
"In addition, troll toenails can be used to make a potion that enhances strength, the duration of which depends on the specific level of potion making."
"Some ancient wizards also liked to use troll blood to refine vitality potions, but because the magic power in troll blood is completely uncontrollable and very difficult to be compatible with other potion ingredients, it was gradually abandoned later."
......
Regarding the magical creature of trolls, Moon had searched for all of its information in the library after defeating one.
This type of creature, which has difficulty breeding, mostly lives in cold forests and mountains.
They are usually active at night and like to eat raw meat, and are not picky about prey.
From wild animals to humans, they can all become their prey.
Even some Muggle legends regard them as a kind of tall demon.
As for wizards, trolls, because of their tall bodies and strong defensive abilities, some smart trolls are often tamed to become security forces.
As for most of the more clumsy trolls, the wizards' method is to keep a close watch on them to prevent them from running around.
The advantage of doing this is that in addition to reducing the risk of exposing the magical world, it can also continuously obtain potion ingredients from trolls.
In the potion shops of Diagon Alley, one ounce of troll toenail is worth 10 Galleons.
And the toenails on a troll can often be trimmed to more than thirty ounces.
......
Hearing that Moon not only answered the various uses of trolls but also cited examples of ancient wizards, Snape's face became very ugly.
Malfoy, sitting on the other side, also had a bad look on his face at this time. He originally wanted to see all three of them standing at the back.
However, it was precisely because Moon's answer was too detailed that Snape did not continue to ask difficult questions but directly announced the making of "Swelling Solution."
......
After the Potions class ended, watching Moon and Neville refine the finished potion, Snape coldly left a sentence and left.
"I will come to inspect tonight. I better not see any dirty things."
The Slytherin students left the classroom one by one happily.
In contrast, the Gryffindor little wizards actually chose to stay.
Snape's obvious刁难in class just now made these little wizards more united now.
"Don't worry, Moon, we'll help you together."
"That's right, your troll answer was just amazing, I don't think Snape expected it either."
Seamus, Neville, Lavender, Harry......
They chatted one by one and quickly cleaned all the tables, chairs, corners, and various tools.
This meant that Moon's newly learned [Cleaning Charm] didn't work at all.
In less than half an hour, the Potions classroom was brand new.
......
When the Gryffindor little wizards were preparing to return to the common room together, Hermione made a very good suggestion to Moon.
"Actually, you learn spells very quickly. Since you have already learned the [Cleaning Charm], why not try to learn some others?"
Regarding Hermione's reminder, Moon thought seriously.
Currently, the spells Moon has mastered, in addition to the [Luminary Charm], [Alohomora], [Colloportus], [Incendio], [Spongify], [Reparo], and [Wingardium Leviosa] that Professor Flitwick explained in class.
The rest are the [Petrificus Totalus] and [Locomotor Mortis] and some minor jinxes.
Among them, he is most familiar with [Locomotor Mortis], and now he can cast it ten times in two breaths.
The second is [Incendio], because he has been studying this basic fire magic recently, which has given Moon a deeper understanding of it.
Next is [Petrificus Totalus]. After Moon practiced this spell, especially after teaching Malfoy a lesson yesterday, he can already cast it four times in a row.
The most surprising thing is [Diffindo]. Although Moon hasn't practiced this minor jinx much, he can also cast it four times in a row.
This made Moon realize his talent in cutting magic even more.
For Moon now, after solving the [Night Owl], he has free time again, and it is indeed time to learn some new spells.
Thinking of this, Moon turned directly to the library.
He wanted to find life-related spells here.
......
After Hermione's reminder, Moon found the books he wanted to read in the library.
"Life Magic Secrets: All You Need to Know About Daily Spells"
"Your Magic Assistant: A Compendium of Practical Spells"
"Auxiliary Spells: A Guide to Convenient Magic"
Among these three spell books, Moon finally sorted out the spells he would learn next.
The first is [Scourgify], he only practiced this spell once with Professor McGonagall.
Now that he can solidify the foundation of the spell, Moon naturally cannot easily let it go.
There are also [Pack], [Point Me], [Impervius], [Aguamenti], [Stasis Charm].
Next, after returning to Ceylon, Moon will immediately start sailing far away, and these spells will become very practical for sailing at sea.
In addition, there are [Gemino], [Tergeo], [Evanesco]......
These spells can provide Moon with some convenience in life.
And the last one, [Sleekeazy's Hair Potion], is prepared by Moon for Bouncing.
This little guy has to take a bath every time he returns from the Black Lake.
But after the bath, Bouncing's black hair will explode, and no matter how you comb it, you can't suppress it.
With this spell, Bouncing can be restored to its most beautiful appearance in an instant.
After recording all the spells he needs to learn next, Moon left the library with the notebook.
Because there is still time, Moon decided to go to the Spell Practice Room to test the power of the new spells first.
Although only a week has passed, his roommates have gradually given up practicing spells.
So, there are only two people and two pets in the Spell Practice Room on the second floor.
