The day of the duel at Hogwarts

After walking out of the Transfiguration classroom, Sean immediately walked to the greenhouse outside Hogwarts Castle with Blaise who was waiting outside the classroom. Today's Herbology class is in Greenhouse No. [-]. The conversation between Sean and Professor McGonagall was slightly delayed. After a while, the two of them had to hurry up if they didn't want to be late.

"How's it going, Sean? Professor McGonagall invited you to join her club?"

While walking down the stairs quickly, Sean replied to Blaise: "Invited, starting this week, there will be two club activities every Tuesday and Thursday, and the time is also in the evening, which coincides with the Potion Club. opened."

"Speaking of clubs, Sean, what's the name of Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration Club?"

"The Fir Club, this is the name of Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration Club."

Not all clubs run by Hogwarts professors are named after corresponding subjects. Although Snape's Potions Club is called the Potions Club, for example, Snape's former Hogwarts Potions Professor Hora Take the Slug Club organized by Slughorn as an example. Many professors’ club names often have little to do with their subjects.

The same is true for Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration Club. She gave her club the same name as the material used for her wand, which was also her favorite tree, fir.

"In this way, won't you have less and less time at night in the future? This is you. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to bear the days of going to class during the day and participating in club activities at night."

"People are different. If you think this kind of life is unbearable, I'm quite happy with it."

The two people chatted and laughed, then left Hogwarts Castle and went straight to Greenhouse No. [-].

On the way, Sean saw Harry and Ron not far away, walking towards Hogwarts Castle with helpless expressions. However, Sean was in a hurry to go to class, so he didn't say anything more and just spoke from a distance. After getting down, he quickly went to Greenhouse No. [-].

When Sean came to Greenhouse No. [-], most of the second-year Slytherin and Ravenclaw students were already here. They got an earmuff from Professor Sputrow, and Sean took it with him. After looking at the flower pots in the greenhouse, I immediately knew what I was going to learn today.

Mandrake!

"Children, come in. Everyone stands in front of a flower pot. We are going to start the first herbal medicine class of this school year."

After hearing Professor Sputraw's words, the little wizards stood in front of the flower pots one after another. Sean and Brace found two flower pots in the corner and waited quietly for the class to begin.

"We are going to repot the mandrake today, so who can tell me what properties the mandrake has?"

Sean knew the properties of mandrake, and he immediately wanted to raise his hand. At the beginning of the school year, professors are usually very generous, and the points awarded for answering questions are also considerable. Sean experienced this deeply last year. , so he also wants to earn as many points as possible for his college at the beginning of the semester.

But the little wizards from Ravenclaw were too fast. As soon as Sean raised his arm halfway, four or five little wizards from Ravenclaw raised their hands, and one of the girls grabbed the opportunity. .

“Mandrake, also known as mandrake root, can restore a deformed or bewitched person to their original shape. It is a very effective restorative.

However, it should be noted that the cry of mandrake can kill people, so strict attention must be paid to this when using mandrake. "

"Perfect as always, Catherine, ten points from Ravenclaw!"

Katherine Bishop, a second-year Ravenclaw student, is also the main force in Ravenclaw's fight for points in class. Sean basically doesn't get extra points in Herbalism and Charms. The biggest reason is her. , in last year's final results, she ranked third behind Sean and Hermione. The main reason was that her practical exam scores in Potions and Transfiguration were relatively low, and she was pulled by Sean and Hermione. From a distance, except for these two points, Catherine is not much worse than Sean and Hermione.

"Sean, did you know? In July, someone from the Bishop family became a review editor for "Animagus", the highest journal related to transfiguration. Previously, someone from their family had become a review editor for "The Golden Crucible" , and later used this to enter the Wizengamot. Every generation of their family has been a Ravenclaw, but they are quite strong academically."

After listening to Blaise's words, Sean nodded and whispered: "I can tell from Catherine alone that it is reasonable for their family to be academically strong."

While talking, Sean vaguely saw Catherine turning her head to glance at him, but then turned her head quickly. It looked like she just turned her head and glanced inadvertently. Although Sean felt that Catherine It was a deliberate glance at himself, but he didn't have any extra thoughts about it. He didn't care whether he looked or not.

In fact, even Sean himself, who was ranked first in the school year, didn't care that much. He just studied normally, took normal exams, and got No. 1 normally. He didn't want to fight for anything too deliberately, so naturally he just I don’t care so much about the No. 1 position anymore.

After some random thoughts, Sean mechanically followed Professor Sputraw's instructions and began to change the flower pots for the mandrakes. Even with ear protection, Sean still felt that the humanoid rhizomes were growing when changing the flower pots. The cry of the mandrake is very harsh, and it is no wonder that it can directly kill people. This should be some kind of magic similar to natural sonic waves.

It's a pity that Mandrake doesn't have enough spirituality for Sean to initiate a duel. Otherwise, if the cry of Mandrake could be made out, it would be a pretty good magic.

Wait, sonic magic...

It works for people, then...

What about the basilisk?

If one doesn't work, what if there are seventeen or eight?

Thinking of this, Sean looked at the ugly mandrake struggling slightly in his hand, stuffed it into the flowerpot, and then filled the soil tightly into it and compacted it. After doing this, Sean stepped back slightly. , asked Professor Sputraw to come and check, and after confirming that there were no problems, he stood there wandering around, thinking about what he had just thought.

There are a lot of mandrakes and the crows of more than a dozen roosters. You stare at people with your eyes, and I greet them with my voice.

Sean wanted to know whether it was the Basilisk's eyes that were more powerful, or whether his sonic attack was more effective.
