The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

"Tsk tsk - almost no one remembers that I like lilac the most. I mentioned it in "A Year with the Tibetan Snowman". A few students want to read more carefully about "Weekend with the Werewolf" - I mentioned it in "A Year with the Tibetan Snowman". Chapter 12 of the book clearly states that my ideal birthday gift is for all magicians and non-magic people to live in harmony. Of course, when I wrote about a night with a female ghost, I did write that eradicating all evil in the world would be my dream".

"Ah, it's incredible! Two new students in Slytherin actually got full marks. They are Mr. Zirol and Mr. Greengrass. They answered all the questions perfectly, which shows their thorough understanding of the teaching materials. .....”

"I decided to give them my new book - Magical Me as a reward"!

After speaking, Lockhart took out two thick hardcover books from the desk, signed his own cursive signature on the covers of the books, and then placed them in front of Zhang Qi with a smile.

"Thank you Professor".

Zhang Qi accepted these two books, adhering to the traditional virtue of courtesy when meeting others.

"Okay, then let's start the formal class"!

Lockhart walked to the back of the podium and tapped the table gently to silence the class.

"I have made full preparations for today's class. I just came back from guarding Mr. Hagrid. Of course, it is just a supplement to my erudite knowledge. I can talk about this well even if I don't feel ashamed to ask. class”.

Zhang Qi in the audience rolled her eyes inwardly, thinking that what her mother said was indeed true. This guy is an arrogant liar who is unwilling to admit it.

"This is a dangerous creature that Mr. Hagrid and I spent a lot of effort to catch"!

Lockhart picked up a large cage from under his feet. The cage was covered by a black curtain, making it difficult to see what was inside.

"Sisi"!

The cage suddenly shook violently, and something inside seemed to be desperately trying to break free, making a hissing sound at the same time.

"The thing inside is a 5X-level dangerous creature officially stipulated by the Ministry of Magic, so I specially reinforced the cage. Don't worry, kids, it will never escape!"

Under everyone's curious gaze, Lockhart showed a satisfied smile on his face, and then lifted the curtain on the cage to reveal the contents in front of the students.

"what"!

Alito next to him let out a short scream, and then grabbed Zhang Qi's arm again, leaving ten deep finger prints on it.

Inside is a spider as big as Xiaofeng Watermelon, which is constantly hitting the door of the cage. Its eight blood-red eyes are spinning around on its head, and green saliva is flowing along the big hole at the front of its head. The claws flowed down and dripped on the iron bars of the cage, making a squeaking sound.

"Yes, that's right, this is an Acromantula"!

Seeing everyone's scared expressions, Lockhart continued excitedly.

"The Acromantula is introduced in detail in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. It is a huge spider with a ferocious nature. It is very smart and has an IQ equal to that of a human. Some older spiders can even speak human language." !

"Their saliva is highly toxic. They usually weave arc-shaped nets on the ground to completely trap their prey, and then inject saliva into the victim's body. Their saliva can melt human flesh and blood, and it also has a certain degree of paralysis. Effect. Pay attention here! It is paralysis, not anesthesia! The victim will clearly feel the pain and despair of being dissolved bit by bit."

"This venom will only dissolve flesh and blood, but not skin. So when the final victim is dissolved into a huge jelly, the Acromantula will suck up the blood, leaving only a shriveled shell."

"Oh my God, that's terrible"!

Some girls in the classroom said trembling slightly.

"But don't worry, after all your teacher is a great wizard"!Lockhart smiled and continued.

"A large number of alchemical matrices are engraved on this cage, and it is impossible for the things inside to escape."

"Then I would like to ask all students to take turns to come to the podium to observe this monster, and then express your feelings."

"wc! This guy is really big at playing"!

The corners of Zhang Qi's mouth twitched slightly and he said to himself.

"What are you talking about"?

Alito asked a little strangely, because he didn't understand what Zhang Qi was saying just now, and it wasn't in English anyway.

"No, no, I just expressed my surprise in Chinese."

You can’t teach children to swear~

"Well Mr. Greengrass, you're first".

Lockhart looked around and smiled at Alito, who was sitting in the first row.

Alito stood up hesitantly.

"Don't worry, kid. There will never be any danger. I guarantee it on my honor."

Alito hesitated even more, but he finally walked up to the podium and observed the huge spider with a disgusted look on his face.

"So how does it feel, Mr. Greengrass"?

"Very, very disgusting"...

Alito said with a pained look on his face.

"Disgusting? Of course, this thing is indeed disgusting and dangerous. This is why I use it as a teaching material in this class, because this thing hurts no less than double digits of lives every year."

"Then Mr. Zirol, it's your turn."

Zhang Qi walked up to the podium and began to carefully observe the cage where the giant spider... was.

Rather than the disgusting big spider, he was more interested in the alchemy matrix engraved on the cage.

Alchemy is the exploration of absolute degradation to matter and subsequent evolution back to its source. Ancient alchemists described it as a snake biting its own tail. This is also an important theoretical support for the benzene ring structure.

The basic structure of alchemy is the four elements, namely earth, water, air and fire.

They represent the power of the four kings respectively.

The energy of life moves through fire and air, both of which are active in nature, but fire is the most active of the two.

These are volatile energies, and the energy of matter moves through water and earth.These energies are fixed, while water is more active than earth.

This is why the King of Bronze and Fire among the Four Kings is good at alchemy and weapon forging.

The manufacture of this cage uses brass and metal tin, which is a very difficult technology, and if you take a quick look, you will find that the energy of this cage is operating normally and very stably. Zhang Qi had to take a high look at Lockhart.

But when Zhang Qi moved his gaze to the top of the cage, the smile on his face froze.

Damn it, I knew he had absolutely no ability!

Zhang Qi greeted the eighteenth generation of Lockhart's ancestors in his heart.

The refining of red stone as an energy supply source is too rough. The step of mixing mercury and gold powder is OK, but the heating time and temperature are obviously not enough.

This red stone has not even completely reddened, and its appearance is still orange!

"Zi La"~

The sound of acid corroding metal drew Zhang Qi's attention to the spider again.

The latch of the cage door had been corroded black and looked as crisp and brittle as a restaurant soda cracker.

"I lost it"!
