Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure
Page 588
Aiwen did have spare balances, crucibles and various materials, but he didn't take them out.
He saw this as an opportunity to see if Harry could still find Snape's old textbook.
He remembered that there was such a textbook, which recorded Snape's improvements to the potion formula and brewing process recorded in "Advanced Potion Making", as well as some magic created by Snape himself.
To be honest, Ivan is very interested in this textbook and its contents.
At the very least, potions will help a lot.
When I visited Snape's storage cabinet before, Ivan even looked for it, but found nothing.
Snape didn't seem to take out this textbook, but kept it somewhere specially.
He had given up the classroom to Slughorn this term, and had probably left it behind while packing, or else Slughorn had found the textbook elsewhere while tidying up the classroom.
Everything is possible. In short, getting this textbook requires luck, and Aiwen has no such luck.
So, he was going to let Harry try...
Slughorn strode to a storage cabinet in the corner, groped in it for a while, and took out two tattered copies of "Advanced Potion Making" by Libasio Pollage, Handed to Harry and Ron, along with two sets of faded scales.
Is this it?Ivan stared at the "Advanced Potion Making" in Harry's hand.
"Show me, Harry," he whispered, taking the battered textbook.
The pages were moldy, and scribbled all over them, making the margins of each page as black as the places where the potions were printed.
Should be this?There is no way to confirm these.
He casually flipped the pages of the book to a potion and carefully identified the formula on it.
"Okay!" Slughorn said and returned to the front of the classroom. He pushed his already swollen chest forward, and the buttons on his vest were about to burst. You opened your eyes, of course, just out of interest. When you finish the advanced course, you should be able to make something like this. Although you haven't done it yourself, you must have heard of it. Who can tell me this What is one?"
He pointed to the cauldron closest to the Slytherin table, which contained nothing but clear water bubbling.
This obviously can't be clear water, it can only be...
Hermione's well-trained hand went up first, and Slughorn pointed at her.
"It's Veritaserum, a colorless, odorless potion that compels those who drink it to tell the truth," said Hermione.
"Very well, very well! It's Veritaserum, it's really great to be able to recognize it, now..." said Slughorn happily, pointing to the cauldron closest to the Ravenclaw table, " This kind is relatively well-known, and it has been highlighted in several pamphlets issued by the Ministry recently, who can?"
Before he could finish speaking, Hermione raised her hand again.
"It's Polyjuice Potion, sir," she said.
The slowly bubbling mud-like thing in the second cauldron, this kind of potion they had brewed when they sneaked into the Slytherin common room before, was very familiar to Hermione. Alvin has made it many times!
"That's great, that's great! And here's this . . . tell me, dear?" said Slughorn.
He looked a little surprised to see Hermione's hand raised again.
"It's a powerful love potion!"
"Exactly, so there's no need to ask," said Slughorn now, with genuine admiration. "I suppose you know what it's for?"
"It's the most powerful love potion in the world!" said Hermione.
"Exactly! I suppose you recognized it by its characteristic mother-of-pearl sheen?"
"There is also its characteristic spiraling pink vapor, which is unique among all potions." Hermione said with interest, "Also, its smell varies from person to person, according to each person's best taste." Like something. I can smell freshly mowed grass, new parchment, and…"
She blushed suddenly, and stopped talking, but secretly glanced at Ai Wen beside her.
It's a pity that Ivan didn't hear this sentence, he was concentrating on studying this dirty textbook.
Otherwise, he should have guessed that Hermione might be talking about the taste of his saliva...
Or, maybe it's the feeling when I'm obsessed with kissing.
Chapter 1297
Slughorn didn't notice Hermione's embarrassment, he asked excitedly, "I have to make sure, Miss Granger, you and the founder of the Extraordinary Apothecary Society, Hetok Dagworth Is Granger really not related?"
"No, Professor, I'm Muggle-born."
"Yeah, Muggle-born, both you and Mr. Mason, I understand why Dumbledore values you so much!" Slughorn said with a smile on his face, "As Ravenclaw said, extraordinary Your ingenuity is the greatest wealth. With this wealth, you will achieve extraordinary achievements in the future, I can be sure."
The expression on Malfoy's face was very disapproving of Slughorn's words.
As soon as Ivan raised his head, he saw him making a vomiting expression.
In the next second, he noticed Ai Wen's gaze, and his four eyes intersected briefly. He obviously hesitated for a moment, and quickly recovered.
Malfoy didn't hold back the sneer from the corner of his mouth, but turned his head and whispered something to Nott, and the two secretly laughed.
This guy doesn't really think that if he takes refuge in Voldemort, he can be fearless, right?
Since the incident two years ago, Malfoy has been afraid to provoke Ivan and Hermione.
It had been a long time since teasing Hermione in class.
Not to mention, it was still in front of Ivan.
Malfoy has changed obviously this semester, not only towards Harry, but also his attitude towards Ivan, which has changed dramatically. He is no longer full of scruples and hesitation towards Ivan as before, and seems to have made up his mind.
Perhaps, his identity as a Death Eater gave him some kind of illusion...
Ai Wen thought for a while, then lowered his head to study the textbook in his hand.
He didn't care much about Malfoy's changes, it wasn't a big deal.
In his opinion, Malfoy really needs some courage, otherwise how would he assassinate Dumbledore?
If he really received this mission from Voldemort, then his current reaction is quite normal.
If it were any other weak-willed guy, he would have given up on himself and collapsed long ago.
Malfoy has only become a little unscrupulous now, and he has changed back to his previous appearance. It can be said that his mentality is very good!
Ivan didn't care about Malfoy and his stupid plan at all, and his attention was mainly focused on the textbooks at hand.
Although there are many changes and marks on it, it is not yet certain whether this book is Snape's.
Or it should have been shortcoming, but Ivan couldn't believe it.
The potion on the page he was looking at happened to be Veritaserum. Ivan was familiar with the potion formula and the brewing process, but the changes in the textbook almost changed the classic potion formula beyond recognition. All that he never thought of.
With so many changes, can you still make Veritaserum?
Or, this is not Snape's textbook, but the product of other students' random graffiti.
It seems that the only way to be sure is to test it.
Ivan has always admired Snape's level of potions, knowing that he is one of the few masters of potions.
This means that he is qualified to modify existing potion formulas, and even create new formulas.
But now it seems that if the changes in this book are really effective, then Snape's real level is still higher than Ivan's imagination.
He closed the textbook and returned it to Harry, ready to see the effect when he started brewing the potion later.
On the podium, Slughorn looked at Hermione with satisfaction.
"Now, I must give Miss Granger of Gryffindor a well-deserved twenty points." He said, "As for this pot of love potion, it is cooked just right. Many times, it can help you inexperienced The rookie has taken a crucial step in the relationship between men and women."
Many students stared at the cauldron, which was emitting spiraling pink steam, with fascinated expressions on their faces.
Love Potions have long been the most popular potions.
Of course, this stuff is not legal, but someone always wants to get it.
Fred and George's "Wonder Witch" is a perfect example. Although they advertised that it is the highest level of love potion, it is actually a weakened version, diluted love potion, which will only make the The opposite sex has a crush on you.
Even so, this thing has sold like crazy since it hit the shelves, with many people ordering it.
Not only students, but many adult wizards also need it.
"But you know, it doesn't really create love. Love can't be created or faked. This potion can only lead to intense obsession or obsession, which is probably the most dangerous and powerful thing in this classroom. A potion. Yes, that’s right, that’s it!” He nodded sternly at Malfoy and Nott, who were sneering suspiciously, “When your life experience is as rich as mine, you won’t underestimate it.” How powerful is the infatuation of the devil!"
"Well, that's the end of the introduction," Slughorn went on. "Now, we should start the class."
"Sir, you haven't told us what's in there yet?" asked Ernie MacMillan.
He pointed to the smallest cauldron on Slughorn's lectern, its contents splashing merrily.
Its color is like molten gold, and there are large drops of liquid jumping on the surface, like goldfish, but none of them spill out. Apart from the love potion, it is the most eye-catching, and the students have never seen it. I have seen this drug.
"Ho!" said Slughorn again, as if just remembering the incident.
But in fact, he definitely didn't forget that potion.
Slughorn just waited for someone to ask, for dramatic effect.
The weight of this potion is also sufficient, and the announced effect is absolutely shocking, no one would want to get it.
"By the way, I haven't said that yet. Ladies and gentlemen, that thing is the most peculiar little potion called Felix Elixir. I think!" He turned around with a smile, and let out a cry. Hermione screamed, "Surely you know what Felix Elixir does, Miss Granger?"
"It's a potion of luck!" said Hermione excitedly. "It will bring you good luck!"
Her words seemed to have magic power, and the whole class immediately straightened their backs, and they leaned forward to look at the small cauldron.
"Quite right, ten points for Gryffindor. Yes, it's a curious little potion, Felix Felicia!" said Slughorn. It is very complicated, and if you get it wrong, the consequences will be disastrous. However, if you cook it properly, like the one in this crucible, you will find that no matter what you do, you will succeed, at least before the effect of the medicine wears off."
"Then why don't people drink it all day, sir?" Terry Boot asked eagerly.
"Because if taken in excess, it can lead to dizziness, recklessness and dangerous arrogance, and even poisoning!" said Slughorn. If it is large, it is very poisonous. But if you take it carefully and sparingly once in a while..."
Chapter 1298 Rewards
Do you believe in luck?
Do you consider yourself a lucky person?
Not everyone believes in luck, but they cannot deny that there are always many unexpected things in life.
From the beginning of birth, everyone faces countless such uncertain changes, until finally returning to the embrace of death.
Some of these changes will make your situation better, while others will make things worse.
The probability of encountering good or bad things is luck.
The whole class listened intently to Slughorn, their eyes fixed on the golden liquid in the cauldron.
In a sense, Felicia Elixir is a very heaven-defying potion.
Since there is no way to deny the existence of luck, people have been studying how to make themselves luckier throughout the ages.
Everyone has their own way to improve luck, such as choosing numbers, colors, patterns, etc. that have special meaning.
This kind of thing is very common among Muggles and wizards alike.The reason for the birth of prophecy and divination is also the same. Wizards hope to predict the illusory future through magic, and then make the right choice to drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters.
No matter which method is used, there are great changes and it may not be useful.
Luck, like the future, is not a certainty in the first place.
But as long as there is a bliss potion, luck is no longer illusory.
It becomes something that is actually uplifting, that taking Felicia makes people luckier and better things happen to them.
This is a heaven-defying potion, to a certain extent, it can even change the fate of a person's life.
Make a "lucky" choice at a critical moment, and the situation will change drastically.
Felicity Elixir is such a potion that makes you lucky, a potion that changes your life and the future.
"Professor, have you ever taken this potion?" Michael Kona asked with great interest.
"Yes, I've taken it twice in my life," said Slughorn, staring dreamily into the distance with a look of nostalgia on his face. "Once when I was 24 and once when I was 57. I took it at breakfast. Two scoops, what a perfect two days! Believe me, that's life, that feeling of being in control, that whatever you do, you'll be successful..."
His voice is full of nostalgia, whether he is acting or not, the effect is very seductive.
"Okay, okay!" Slughorn said, as if returning to reality, "continue with the class. By the way, I decided to use it as a prize for this class. I must remind that this potion is in the The outside world can hardly buy it, so the opportunity is rare!"
There was silence in the classroom, and every bubbling and boiling sound of the medicines around seemed to be amplified ten times.
"A little bottle of Felicia!" Slughorn pulled out a small glass bottle with a cork from his pocket, and held it out to the class. "It will bring good luck for twelve hours, from From day to night, whatever you do, you will be blessed. However, I must remind you that Felicia is forbidden in organized competitions, such as sports competitions, exams or elections. Therefore, get the prize For those of you who can only use it on an ordinary day, and then wait to see how that ordinary day will turn out to be extraordinary! I promise, it will be a day you will never forget."
Felicia just makes people luckier to a certain extent and makes things better.It doesn't mean that as long as you take it, you will succeed no matter what you do. Like Malfoy's assassination of Dumbledore, or Harry's killing of Voldemort, which is already doomed to failure, no matter how much Felician you drink, it will not have any effect of.
Still, Slughorn's desired effect had been achieved, and everyone was interested in Felicia.
Along with that, he became interested in his lessons and how to get this vial of Felicia.
