Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry

Chapter 57. 57. Don't blindly rely on tools
Compared with the leisurely weekends of other little wizards, Dudley's weekend schedule is full.

Exercise in the morning, use the library in the morning, and study potions with Professor Snape in the afternoon.

Hermione actually wanted to go. Although Snape's reputation was not as great as Dumbledore's, the greatest white wizard, he was one of the world's few masters of potions, and it was the dream of many people to be taught by him alone.

Unfortunately, Professor Snape did not invite her.

Dudley said that he learned to teach her the same.

A quarter earlier than the agreed time, Dudley came to the door of the Potions classroom, and found that the door was locked and Snape hadn't come yet, so Dudley leaned against the door and read a book on herbalism by himself.

Herbalism is the basis of potion science. To learn potion well, one must have professional knowledge of herbalism.

"You're more punctual than you think."

Snape's calm and dangerous voice sounded like "black velvet" behind Dudley.

Dudley put down his book and said very politely, "Good afternoon, Professor."

Although Snape's footsteps were as soft as his voice, in the eyes of ordinary little wizards, Snape walked like a ghost without sound, but to Dudley, it was still very clear to Dudley's ears.

His hearing was far more sensitive than the average person's. In fact, Dudley could be said to be a 'Little Superman' in terms of physical fitness alone.

Hmm. The premise is not to compare with a half-breed giant like Hagrid.

Snape opened the door of the potions room, and the two came to the potions room again, but this time it was one-on-one teaching.

"My private lessons are not so easy."

"If I find that you can't keep up with the progress, or don't have that talent, then you will get out of my classroom."

Snape's words were very ruthless, but after all, the two are not related, so it is not bad to be able to teach you alone.After all, the only thing the two could get in touch with was the fact that Dudley's little aunt was Snape's crush.

He wasn't Harry, and Snape wouldn't treat him differently.

"Of course, Professor." Dudley's tone was very respectful, but there was a kind of arrogance in his bones.

No matter how difficult and complicated the process was, as long as it could be done by humans, Dudley didn't think he couldn't do it.

He himself is a very hard-working and hard-working student, coupled with the magic eye of data, if he can't do it again, he can find a piece of tofu and kill him.

"very confident."

"I hope the potion you make is worthy of your confidence."

Snape motioned Dudley to find a seat at random, and he found some materials from a nearby locker and put them in front of Dudley.

"Invigorating Potion, the content of your first class."

Invigorating potion, a type of healing potion, is one of the commonly used potions at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Wounds and Sickness, a top-three hospital in the wizarding world.

Invigorating potions, white fresh essence, and blood tonics, the three potions are generally considered to be healing potions, but the three main directions are different.For example, it is like the difference between cold and fever medicines in the world of ordinary people, ibuprofen, compound acetaminophen tablets, and vitamin C Yinqiao tablets.

The main function of the blood tonic is to replenish the lost blood, other than that, it has no other effect.

Bai Xian Essence is a magical potion extracted from the plant Bai Xian to heal wounds. It is generally used to treat trauma, and the effect is good. Most wizards can make it.

Finally, the potion of invigoration, which is an adjuvant healing potion, also has a certain therapeutic effect and stimulant effect, but this is not the main effect.It can increase the effect of other healing potions.

In other words, the combination of white fresh essence + invigorating potion can greatly improve the healing effect.

It is precisely because of this that it is far more difficult to brew the invigorating potion than the first two.

According to the teaching situation at Hogwarts, this is already the content of the upper grades.

"Do you have any questions? If not, it's officially started."

Snape said calmly while taking out the ingredients for making the boosting potion.

Hawklap juice and fresh white fresh leaves, there are only two auxiliary materials, but it is quite troublesome to prepare.

"Professor, I have something I want to give you."

Dudley said as he took out the things he had prepared earlier, and gently placed them on the table.

The complete set of experimental equipment includes test tubes, beakers, evaporating dishes, alcohol lamps, Buchner funnels and other things.

"Muggle stuff?"

Snape just glanced at it, and immediately judged from the craftsmanship that these things were not from the wizarding world.

"Yes, Professor."

Dudley replied truthfully, and then took out the equipment one by one.

piled up in a pile.

No wonder Snape had a hint of disdain in his tone, almost every wizard has a natural sense of superiority when facing Muggles.

Few wizards pay attention to the things made by Muggles. As far as Dudley knows, there seems to be only one well-known wizard who attaches great importance to things made by Muggles in recent years. This wizard is called Grindelwald.

"This is the beaker, this is the measuring cup and this is."

Seeing that Snape didn't pay attention to it, Dudley was not in a hurry, he just took each of the equipment and briefly introduced their uses.

Following Dudley's introductions one by one, Snape's eyes were disdainful at first, and gradually turned serious.

Take the balance as an example. There is no comparison between the old-fashioned brass balance and the tray balance. The accuracy of the latter absolutely crushes the former.

A top potion master like Snape certainly knew what precision meant.

Often just a slight difference can determine whether a potion is successful or not.

"I think these things are good for making potions, so I brought them here."

"Professor, whether it is made by Muggles or wizards, as long as the tool is easy to use, is it enough?"

After the introduction, Snape was already deeply attracted by the experimental equipment in front of him, and wished he could actually operate it right away.

"It's very convenient, but I don't need to use it in my class in the future."

"As a wizard, you can't just rely on tools."

Seeing that Dudley didn't have any objection, Snape gave a rare look of approval.

"Leave this set of tools with me first."

"Of course, Professor. These were meant for you."

In fact, Dudley also agrees with the saying that you can't just rely on tools.

Strictly speaking, these experimental equipment are of very limited help to a top potion master like Snape. Except for the problem of accurate scale, the functions of experimental equipment can often be completed by magic, just like for Dudley. After he obtained the Data Magic Eye, the effect of the experimental equipment was greatly reduced, and Snape also found it fresh.

After all, Snape's daily life is quite boring, and he has no other hobbies, except potions are potions.

Oh, maybe now there's an extra eye for Harry and a point penalty for Gryffindor.

But for those beginners in potions, these experimental equipment are auxiliary artifacts.

Both potions and technology have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they cannot be completely biased towards one side. Combining the two into one is the right way.

'Whether it's made by Muggles or wizards, as long as the tools are easy to use, isn't it all right? '

' Lily had said something similar. '

Where Dudley hadn't noticed, Snape's gaze softened again at him.
