NOVEL NEXT Chapter 19 When Kelpie Appears In Harry Potter
After making up his mind to be a good student, Levin actively interacted with the teacher in every class he took.
As analyzed before, all Dumbledore cares about is his broken prophecy.
As long as it doesn't have too much interaction with "Harry Potter and his annual adventure", it will basically not fall into his eyes.
Levin naturally does not have to keep a low profile in normal studies.
With Levin's activeness, Ravenclaw naturally scores points.
The professors all liked this little Muggle-born genius.
His only threatening competitor was Hermione Granger.
This know-it-all lady seemed to regard Levin as her biggest competitor after meeting him in the library, and she wanted to compete with him no matter what.
It wasn't until the History of Magic class that Levin's rule over extra points came to an end.
It's not that he can't memorize "History of Magic" by heart - he won't have this problem at all with his memory database.
Cuthbert Binns, who mainly writes History of Magic, is too confusing.
The main focus of this ghost teacher’s course is on autism,
As soon as the class time came, Cuthbert Binns walked through the wall on time,
He didn't even call the name, and just started reading the text in a monotonous voice.
Read the entire class and call it a day.
From beginning to end, there was no interaction, no questions, and naturally no extra points.
This also makes History of Magic the most boring class in Hogwarts.
If Levin could have met such a teacher when he was in college, he would have laughed to death!
If the teacher doesn't care about things, then this class will just be watered down as much as you want.
But when he was a good student himself, it was embarrassing.
Another class standing in the way is Potions.
The Potions classroom is in the basement. It is said that the coldness of the basement is conducive to the storage of materials.
But Levin and the young wizards all suspected that this was purely due to Snape's personal preference based on his dark psychology.
The first time he set foot here, Levin felt uncomfortable.
Even the powerful magic inside Hogwarts cannot dispel this darkness and coldness.
Together with the glass jars that take up most of the wall and are filled with various offal,
It feels like visiting the herbarium of a medical school.
Even Slytherins have to hide away when they come to attend the classes of their dean.
If paired with Snape's greasy long hair and gloomy old face, the cooling effect is doubled.
The little wizards fully felt this in the first potions class.
When Snape slid silently into the classroom like a giant bat, the temperature in the room seemed to drop a few degrees.
Like Flitwick, he picked up the register as soon as class started, and like Flitwick, he always paused when Harry's name was called.
"Oh yes,"
He whispered,
"Harry Potter, this is our new arrival - a famous person."
He opened his mouth slightly, and his voice was full of disdain: "You are here to learn the precise science and strict craftsmanship of preparing potions..."
"Since there's no silly waving of wands here, many of you won't believe this is magic."
"I don't expect you to truly understand the beauty of the slowly simmering cauldron emitting white smoke and bursting with fragrance. You won't truly understand the liquid flowing into people's blood vessels, the kind that makes people's hearts wander and their wills blur. Wonderful magic..."
"I can teach you how to increase your reputation, brew glory, and even prevent death - but there must be one thing, that is, you must not be the stupid fools I often encounter."
Next is Snape’s question session.
Like Professor McGonagall, he likes to give new students a hard time by randomly selecting an unlucky person to make things difficult for them.
…It’s actually not random. It mainly depends on who Snape is unhappy with.
Originally, Levin thought he would target Harry as in the original novel, and was prepared to see the joke.
Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, he realized that Snape was looking at him with evil eyes.
I sat up in shock when I was dying of illness. I was the unlucky one?
This is also normal. It can be seen from Snape's attitude towards Hermione in the original book. He really doesn't like students who are flamboyant and like to be in the limelight.
Maybe it's the hatred towards James Potter and others?
In short, Levin has been targeted by Snape because of his previous outstanding performance.
In addition, Levin speculated that this was also related to his relationship with Harry.
Levin was the only Ravenclaw freshman who had a good relationship with Harry.
"Green! Stand up!"
“What will I get if I add narcissus root powder to a mugwort infusion?”
Snape suddenly asked,
But this "head sucking" was of no use to him;
Not to mention that the Potions textbook has already been included in the database in the brain,
Just based on the memory of his previous life, he knew exactly what kind of ax Snape would wield.
"A bottle of water of life and death, Professor."
"If I asked you to find me a piece of bezoar, where would you look for it?"
"In the cow's stomach."
"What's the difference between Aconitum scaphoides and Aconitum wolfsbane?"
"There is no difference, they are both Aconitum."
Snape came up with a right kick, a right leg kick, and a left jab.
In the end, Levin was on guard against everything.
But Snape didn't give up.
The one-click triple combo in the original work didn't work, so he immediately increased the difficulty.
“Bezoars are the feces of what animal?”
"Bezoars are not feces, but stones taken from the stomachs of goats."
"When does the sapweed need to be picked?"
"When the moon is full."
…
After six or seven questions in a row, no matter how hard Snape tried to make things difficult, Levin could give the answers without thinking.
This series of quick questions and answers made the other little wizards look stupid.
Until Snape asked: "What does the water ghost brain do?"
"Water brain? Is there such a material in Harry Potter's world?" Upon hearing this question, Levin was instantly confused, "Isn't this a specialty in the wizarding world?"
"Why would Snape ask this question? Has he also traveled through time?"
"No, think about it carefully. Since Cirila is also in this world, it means that all this is not a coincidence. Unknown changes have taken place in this world."
"Considering that the main plot has not changed much, the impact of this change will not be big for the time being... I will have to study it carefully when I have time."
At that moment, Levin's inner thoughts were racing rapidly.
It really surprised Levin that Snape could raise this "extra-category" question.
But it’s not like he never played “The Witcher 3” in his previous life.
"Water ghost brain can be used to make healing potions."
Levin thought for a while and added in a low voice: "It has a strong aphrodisiac effect on men."
After listening to Levin's answer, the old bat fell into a brief silence.
He really didn't expect that this Ravenclaw "top student" would actually be so outstanding!
You know, the water ghost is a new monster that only appeared in the past ten years.
And water ghost brain is a new potion material that was only discovered in the past five years.
Most of the research results on water ghost brain are limited to the circle of pharmacists and cutting-edge papers.
This first-year freshman knows even this, which is indeed considered to be knowledgeable.
Especially the aphrodisiac effect of water ghost brain, which was a new result discovered only last year.
It originated from an accident that occurred after a male pharmacist accidentally took raw water ghost extract.
——At that time, he only had his swallow-tailed dog by his side.
Snape looked at Levin deeply, and then he shouted to the other young wizards: "What are you waiting for? Why don't you write down this knowledge?"
Levin smiled slightly and watched Snape's incompetent rage.
But soon he stopped laughing,
Because after failing to make things difficult for him, Snape was so shameless that he started explaining the content of the first lesson directly.
He didn't give Ravenclaw any points!
It is really shameless to be partial to this extent!
But finally, through this scene, Levin managed to show off in front of the little wizards of the same grade.
