Two Worlds: I studied at Hogwarts

#109 - Mysterious separation solution

Hagrid helped Moon dig up a whole sack of clay, and in the end, he even helped him send it back to the Gryffindor common room.

After coming out of the common room, Moon was just about to thank him when Hagrid started to act coy in the corridor as if he had something on his mind.

“Moon, if... : . . if you have nothing to do this weekend, could you come to my place?”

“This weekend? Sure.”

Actually, Moon's time was already fully occupied every day, but since a friend had something to do, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

“Okay, then I'll see you on Saturday.”

Hearing Moon's very cheerful agreement, Hagrid happily made an appointment to meet after lunch on Saturday.

Moon didn't ask what Hagrid wanted to talk about.

After leading the other party down the constantly changing layers of stairs, he watched Hagrid leave the castle.

It was just around five o'clock in the afternoon, and Hermione should still be in the library looking for information.

Harry had gone to Quidditch practice.

Seamus and Neville also didn't know where they had gone, and only Ron was in the common room playing wizard chess.

After discovering that the personnel were not complete, Moon was not in a hurry to start making clay figures.

He told Ron to keep an eye on the clay and then left the common room.

Today, Moon also had to go to the potions classroom to clean, and the sixth-year potions class should be ending at this time.

In addition to cleaning, Moon also planned to try out [Potion Analysis Technique] today.

After more than a week of preparation, Moon now had a general understanding of [Potion Analysis Technique].

This complex magic, in addition to the tools for making potions, also requires mastering the corresponding analysis spells, as well as the necessary [Separation Potion].

In 《Elementary · Potion Analysis Technique》, Zygmunt first proposed using [Separation Potion] to speed up the process of potion analysis.

“I really don't know what these potion geniuses are thinking?”

Moon had never thought that some herbs with not very high medicinal value would have such a big effect.

In the chapter on "Separation Potion" in the book, Zygmunt explained the potions prepared from three different herbs.

The first is Sneezewort potion, the liquid extracted from the stems and leaves of this plant, which can separate metal materials in potions.

The second is Wormwood potion, this liquid has a strong purification function,

It can block substances in the potion that do not meet the needs of the wizard from the analysis process, making the whole process cleaner and more executable.

The third is Narcissus Root potion, which is not as good as the above two in terms of purifying potions and separating metal materials.

But it can absorb tiny particles in the potion and differentiate the specific ingredients of the potion.

After the absorption is complete, the corresponding potion analysis spell can be used to manipulate these gathered potion particles.

After reading all the content in the book, Moon decided to use Narcissus Root potion for separation first.

Compared to the other two herbs, Moon knew more about Narcissus Root.

More importantly, he could obtain a certain amount of Narcissus Root from the greenhouse.

After using [Scourgify] to clean the entire potions classroom, Moon directly took out the "Narcissus Root Separation Liquid" that he had made in the Herbology Club this week.

This liquid only needs to be washed, squeezed, and filtered to obtain a lot.

“I hope you guys will be useful.”

Moon said as he came to the place where he usually made potions in class.

He first added a drop of black potion brought from Xilin to the cauldron.

Then, according to the ratio, he added twice the amount of Narcissus Root Separation Liquid.

Using the finest stirring rod, he thoroughly mixed the two.

Until the Narcissus Root Separation Liquid was completely dissolved into the potion, he lit the alcohol lamp under the cauldron.

Potion analysis has very strict requirements for temperature.

Because different potion ingredients have different temperature requirements.

So Zygmunt proposed the method of slowly heating the flame from low to high temperature.

And in this process, the potion materials that are more sensitive to temperature will be adsorbed by the Narcissus Root Separation Liquid first.

And what Moon needs to do in this process, in addition to ensuring constant stirring, is to constantly experiment with various analysis spells.

The whole process must be continuous and uninterrupted.

This has very strict requirements on Moon's magic output.

After trying three times, Moon finally obtained the first potion ingredient image.

Elementary [Potion Analysis Technique] can only know the ingredients of the potion. The ratio, refining method, and more profound things are in the intermediate and advanced potion analysis techniques.

The method of obtaining potion ingredients through analysis is also very magical.

After the potion is successfully separated, the analysis spell is cast correctly.

Then the image of the potion raw material will reappear in the operator's mind.

After Moon tried more than a dozen spells, a white flower appeared in his mind.

Its shape is very similar to the chrysanthemum that Moon knows, but Moon is very sure that this is not a chrysanthemum.

While Moon was thinking, his stirring action paused, and the spell connection also stalled.

So the fourth drop of potion was vaporized again.

“It seems Professor Sprout is right, this kind of magic is really difficult.”

Moon only brought half of the potion from Xilin, which is about twenty drops.

But now that he had wasted four drops, he had only obtained one unknown potion raw material.

This made Moon have to temporarily stop the experiment.

Although Moon had only taken first-year potions classes, he knew that the most basic potions generally have seven or eight raw materials.

Not to mention some advanced and complex potions, they mostly have more than a dozen raw materials and complex refining techniques.

“Review today's experience again, find the mistakes, and then come again next time.”

After performing potion analysis four times in a row, Moon's forehead was already slightly sweaty. He knew that he no longer had the energy to perform the next time.

So he stopped in time, and after using [Scourgify] to clean the entire operating table, he left the potions classroom.

And not long after Moon left, Snape also came to the classroom to check the hygiene results.

It's just that today, as soon as he came, he smelled a special smell in the classroom.

Although Moon only experimented with four drops of potion, each time it was vaporized halfway.

This caused slight potion smell traces to be left in the potions classroom.

“This is not the content of my class.”

Snape first sniffed slightly with his nose, and then immediately distinguished the source of the smell.

Coming accurately to the operating table where Moon had just left, Snape bent down and sniffed again.

“It's here. Although it's cleaned very cleanly, there is still the smell of Narcissus Root separation potion.”

After Snape finished speaking, he took out his wand and recited a very obscure spell towards the cooled cauldron.

[Potion Coagulation]

After a green light fell on the cauldron, it disappeared instantly.

After Snape waited for a while, no potion traces appeared on the cauldron.

“That's not right! I should know all the potion raw materials in the magic world.”
