The Wizard Supreme at Hogwarts

Chapter 171 The Strange Potions Professor

The Potions classroom was in the basement of the castle, probably for safety reasons.In case the students accidentally cause the crucible to explode during operation, the impact can also be kept to a minimum.

Norlin entered the classroom ahead of the Potions professor, and the gap between the two was less than a minute.His arrival caused quite a commotion. The students stared wide-eyed and watched his every move. From the time he entered the gate, they looked left and right for an empty seat, and finally sat down on the empty seat next to Giles. until.

Almost everyone was paying close attention, and even the Potions professor who should have received the most attention came in, they didn't realize it until later.

The potions professor was a handsome middle-aged man. He cleared his throat, and the students turned their heads back and sat up straight as if they had just woken up from a dream.

The Potions professor on the podium didn't seem to notice the undercurrent surging under the stage, so he raised his voice and said with a smile:

"Hello, everyone. I'm Roy Brown. I think you all know each other basically. After all, I'm the only Potions professor in the school."

Professor Brown glanced at Nolin, who had received much attention, and continued, "Starting today, everyone will continue to study the exquisite subject of potions with me. As you probably know, I am not the kind of person who suffers from intellectual obsession. I'm an educator of the disease, which means that I won't force you to like Potions. In fact, I know very well that it is really difficult to make a difference in this subject without patience and talent."

"However, since you have stepped into this classroom and continue to study this course, you must maintain the most basic respect for me. Even if you hate it, you must complete the homework I assigned after class. Recite what I need you to remember. Finally, I must remind everyone that Durmstrang's pass mark is six in every subject, with the exception of this subject, where Potions is seven."

Professor Brown looked at the audience with a smile. The students were indifferent. Obviously, after two years of examinations, they have become very clear about this rule.

The professor seemed much more talkative than Snape...

Noreen rubbed his chin and thought to himself, and soon laughed, as if anyone was better at talking than Snape.

"Seven points is a rule that has existed since the establishment of the school. If you have any complaints, you can complain to the portraits of previous principals in the tower."

Professor Brown raised his eyes and said with a smile.Norlin felt that this professor was a bit of a thief. He was gone, so what was the use of complaining to the portrait that only mechanically repeated language and actions?This is the way to completely cut off the students.

Professor Brown looks very young, around 30 years old by visual estimation.With blond hair and blue eyes, bright eyes, a cynical casualness in his speech, coupled with tasteful clothes, he looks like a yuppie in the magical world.It's hard to believe that such a man would be a professor in Durmstrang. Teaching and educating people don't look like mavericks.

It's a bit like that cheap uncle... Nolin muttered in his heart.

Seeing Professor Brown turn around and start writing on the blackboard, the students subconsciously took out their notebooks and prepared to write on the blackboard.

"Ah, you don't need to remember these things."

Professor Brown didn't look back, he spoke lazily and waved his hand.

After he finished writing, the students looked at the content on the blackboard in a moment of incomprehension.What is described on the blackboard is neither the rules and regulations in the textbook, nor some precautions, nor the exam practice questions.

The blackboard was densely packed with chalk writing about how to buy potions such as crucibles, test tubes, stirring rods and so on.

Professor Brown went his own way, regardless of the changes in the expressions of the students in the audience, he said:
"The things in the book are dead, if you can't understand it, you can just memorize it. The exam is nothing more than the rigid regulations stipulated in the rules and regulations. After entering the third grade, the difficulty of Potions class will rise to a higher level. After formally instilling Before those really advanced knowledge, I want to pass on some basic common sense about potion science to everyone, and among many common senses, the preparation of tools is the most important one."

"A good start is half the battle. If you blindly invest in potion making without choosing the right equipment, the consequences will be unimaginable. There are many examples in history about this. I won't list them one by one, the principal The library can satisfy you."

"The potions classes in the first and second grades are all simple and common potions, and there is no safety hazard, so I will save these words to you until the third grade. You should remember them well."

Professor Brown said with a smile.In the following potions class, the students indulged in the selection of various kinds of crucibles, the function and use of various stirring rods, the various professional detergents needed to clean the crucibles, and how to clean the pots and hobs. More in line with the sea of ​​knowledge...

He also left a unique homework in the first class: according to his own crucible, choose the stirring rod and detergent that can be matched with it, and explain the specific reasons.

Norlin felt as if she had written a dissertation in her previous life.

After class, Norlin was left behind by Professor Brown.

After the other students walked out of the classroom with bitter faces, Professor Brown waved to Norlin, who walked up to him with some doubts.

"Are you an exchange student from Hogwarts? How is Professor Snape doing?"

Professor Brown raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with a smile.

"It's alright."

Norling thought back. Before he left Hogwarts, Snape was still the same, giving Gryffindor points and points all day long, eating well and sleeping soundly, and even helping to kill a basilisk when he was free. Had a great time.

"Really? If he's doing well, I'm not doing so well."

Professor Brown smiled playfully, with unclear meaning in his eyes.

Ok?
Norlin was startled, subconsciously felt that the professor had a grudge against Snape, worried that Chi Yu would be affected, and immediately said solemnly:

"Actually, I don't know very well, I'm not familiar with Professor Snape..."

Professor Brown glanced at him with great interest, and said slowly:

"In the last International Wizarding Potions Competition, I lost a hand to him. Several years have passed, and I have been trying to win it back...but Snape has been nesting in Hogwarts, refusing to come out... "

"Until a few days ago, I received a letter from him, saying that there was an exchange student from Hogwarts at the beginning of the session, and that person was his proud student..."

An ominous premonition surged in Norrin's heart.

Professor Brown said with a half-smile, "Snape said that all dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction with him can be directed at his proud student, after all, this student has received his true biography..."

Since when did I become Snape's favorite student?When he came to Durmstrang, he still wanted to trick me?
Norin thought angrily, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
