Hogwarts founder returns to campus

Chapter 31 Potions Lesson

It was already nine o'clock, and almost all the first-year students in the classroom turned their heads towards the door, wanting to see how the Potions teacher would arrive.

But Salazar was obviously not one of them, and he looked away from the wall near the door.

Then he picked up a glass tube placed on a wooden stand with great interest, and looked at the stuffed animals inside.

It was an embryo that looked like a baby curled up. The sun could see through the glass jar that it still had a fine layer of hair on its body. Its eyes were large and its facial features seemed disproportionate. It floated quietly in the soaked water. in liquid.

What attracted Salazar the most was that the embryo would appear and disappear, as if it would dissolve in water.

"This is the cub of the Invisible Beast, such a poor little thing." Cassandra said, with a trace of unbearable expression on her face.

"These places have signs of being attacked by magic. They should have been seriously injured and died during the domestication process." Salazar said, pointing to the black spots on the back and chest of the invisible beast.

The Invisible Beast is a kind of mild-tempered vegetarian magical animal. The combination of hair and magic power on the body can produce the ability of invisibility, hence the name.

The hairs of invisible beasts can be collected to weave invisibility cloaks, which belong to a relatively valuable magical animal.

Invisible beasts also have the ability to foresee the future, which is why many wizards want to capture invisible beasts.

Because the ability of invisible beast cubs to predict the future is still very weak, so ordinary wizards will choose to capture such cubs, and then carry out a long period of cruel training, and finally become a tool.

Just as Cassandra and other curious students continued to share knowledge about invisible beasts, following a burst of short footsteps, a thin figure walked quickly towards the podium.

Snape, who arrived late, was wearing a black robe that fluttered as he walked, looking like a huge bat suddenly floated to the side of the podium.

With his back to the sun, his dark eyes seemed unable to see any human emotion.Then he slowly swept over those little wizards who lowered their heads unconsciously.

Then, he took out his wand and tapped the locked wooden cabinet next to it, took out a booklet from it, and said in a low voice: "The roll call will begin, Anthony Goldstein."

"To!"

"Kevin Entwistle."

"To!"

"Lisa Dupin."

"To!"

……

"Salazar Kolber."

"To!"

Snape looked away from the roster, looked at where Salazar was, and said in a voice without the slightest emotion, "You are Salazar Kolber?"

"If this classroom does not have the same name and surname as mine, then only I have this name."

At this moment, the eyes of the two met, and the temperature of the originally cold classroom seemed to drop a bit suddenly, and an indescribable and suffocating depression filled the entire classroom.

"Who are you?" Snape asked again, his tone full of unquestionable toughness.

"Salazar Kerber." The answer was still so calm and unhurried, without any timidity or flinching because of Snape's pressing question.

The surrounding first graders turned their heads uneasily, looking at their companions with fear and anxiety in their eyes.

They could all vaguely sense that Snape and Salazar seemed to be fighting.

The entire classroom seemed to be silent, and it seemed to be constantly making annoying noises.

"He looks like a bat." Cassandra didn't seem to be so sensitive to this kind of repression, and after she observed the potions teacher's shoulder-length greasy black hair and that huge hooked nose, she couldn't help but look at Salazar. He whispered in his ear.

"Hmph!" Snape on the podium withdrew his gaze, and the oppressive feeling in the classroom dissipated a lot in an instant.

He put down the roster, walked slowly to the blackboard, and said slowly: "Potions is a rigorous and detailed course. If you don't follow the correct steps in the process of making potions, then you may get It's a passport to death."

The words were very short, but there was only the sound of inaudible breathing in the audience. Everyone was holding their breath as much as possible, trying not to miss every word, so as not to let themselves die inexplicably.

"Potions can increase prestige, brew glory, and even prevent death. This is what you will learn and face." Snape continued, those dark eyes roamed the entire classroom, and finally stopped at Sarah. Racha's location.

"Mr. Kolber!" said Snape suddenly, "what's the use of the feathers, claw powder, and beak powder of the Balloon?"

Salazar's right eyelid twitched, and he was thinking about Snape's purpose for raising this question. This content was not included in the first grade textbook. Why would he ask such a question to himself?

"Please tell me, Mr. Kolber, what are the feathers, talons powder, and beak powder used for?" Snape repeated again.

"A potion that stabilizes apparition can be made," Salazar said.

"Hmm..." Snape let out a low moan, "If unfortunately bitten by a werewolf, is there any way to remedy it?"

An uneasy murmur begins in the classroom that none of this stuff is in the textbooks they've been taught, and all the questions are beyond the syllabus.

"I said... be quiet!" Snape continued in his low, even voice. "Is there any way to remedy this?"

"Cinnamon essence plus silver powder can stop the bleeding and help the wound heal, but there is no remedy," Salazar said.

"Oh?" Snape's voice drew out again, "Why?"

"The moment I was bitten by a werewolf, I was already infected with lycanthropy. I had to choose to die or continue to survive as a werewolf. If I had to choose, I would choose to die." Salazar said slowly. Sit down slowly.

Snape fell into a long silence, and finally said in a hoarse and low voice: "Why don't you write all this down? Do you expect me to instill all this knowledge into your minds?"

Amidst the rustle of fumbling quills and parchment, Snape turned to write a potion formula on the blackboard, saying as he wrote: "Now you just need to go through "A Thousand Wonderful Herbs and Fungi" 》Identify the medicinal materials, and then follow the steps I wrote on the blackboard to make the potion completely."

When everyone turned their attention to Snape again, he continued, "Now come to the podium, take away the materials that belong to you, and start making potions."

The rest of the time was spent making potions. If Salazar had any different feelings, it was that this teacher named Snape was always hanging around him, watching him configure the potions, and then Cassandra catalyzes magic.

Although both Cassandra and him successfully completed the production of the potion, Justin's group next to Cassandra was obviously much more unlucky.

Under Snape's high-intensity surveillance, they made frequent mistakes, almost blowing up the cauldron.

This made them flustered, while wiping up the splashed liquid, while observing Snape's reaction, all of them had expressions of panic and uneasiness on their faces.
