Chapter 280 My Teacher Is Awesome

"The chrysalis of the hawkmoth, the root of the mandrake, using potions in the moonlight..."

The parchment was put down, revealing Snape's face, he looked at Anton suspiciously, "This part is the potion material for Animagus."

Anton nodded, "Animagus, a high-end human body transformation technique, is actually to create a new body for people, a body full of beast instincts, and this part of the potion step is to allow werewolves to enter the gestation process." The state of a new body."

Snape frowned, picked up the parchment again, looked up and down the prescription, and picked out some steps from it again, "The rat with bones and muscles, the top leaves of the moonshine grass, this is one of the steps of the 'Potion of Chaos' , I think your idea is to affect the consciousness of the person using the potion."

"Combined with the 'use under the moonlight' mentioned earlier, it can affect the memory of the new body at a deeper level when entering the Animagus to analyze the state of the body."

Anton continued to nod. The idol is worthy of being an idol. From the hundreds of steps in the formula of potion ingredients, he picked out the most important steps, with extremely vicious eyes.

"According to your idea..." Snape's fingers moved, and finally settled on a certain line, "Powder made from unicorn horn, dried nettle flakes, sneezeweed, these are the steps in the formula of beauty potions, What does it do to change the... self-perception that appearance affects?"

"At the same time, sneezeweed, scurvy..." Snape frowned, and looked at Anton with satisfaction, "The Confusion Potion is indeed very useful for your formula, and it was originally added with lovage, you replaced it with You found the chrysalis of the ghost-faced hawkmoth, obviously you have improved the confusion potion."

Anton looked at Snape in amazement, "Idol, you can actually pick out the chrysalis of the hawkmoth from these. It seems that you have also improved in this way. The idol is worthy of being an idol."

Snape glared. "Please stop calling yourself such a fool."

"Okay."

Snape continued to examine the potions again. He was struggling to read, and sometimes he would wave his wand to make certain materials fly off the shelf in the office, thinking while flipping through them.

This doesn't mean that Anton's ability in potion science has surpassed Snape's, it's just that Snape is very cautious when facing a particularly complicated and unfamiliar new researched potion.

"It's wrong here, I know you must have seen this decoction in "The Joke Poem That Poison Can Make You a Stupid", valerian root, moonstone powder and acromander venom, but the formula itself is Wrong, Anton, you remember, the content in the book is not necessarily correct, the moonstone powder should be replaced with peppermint."

"Furthermore, the venom of the giant acromantia should not be directly used here. It will produce another change under the moonlight, which will seriously affect the efficacy of the potion."

"The leech should absorb the venom of the giant spider, and then peel off the skin of the leech. Only use this part. In addition to minimizing the impact, it can also assist in weakening the toxin of the wolf's poison. This is also the best potion of the wolf's poison. improvement plan."

"The feathers of the soundless bird, the juice of the Motra rat..." Snape's eyes lit up, "this step is very clever, it can reconcile this potion, and make it suitable for other effects of transfiguration, great , so that this potion is not limited to removing the effects of Wolfsbane."

Anton quickly took notes while listening to Lao Si's dismantling and analysis.

After Snape stripped the contents of the potion formula bit by bit, he began to adjust the proportion and steps of the potion formula from an overall perspective.

"According to this way of thinking, this part can actually be deleted. You only need to drop a few drops of the liquid prepared from the skin of the African tree snake. It will react with this step and directly replace the effects you originally needed for these potions, and Minimize the instability of this formula."

"The mouse spleen and daisy root should be added here again. You know, I have explained to you about the actual function of the mouse spleen in the shrinking potion before, and it will play a very good role."

Anton stopped writing, stared at Snape's modification on the formula, and looked up at him, "Daisy root, wouldn't it be better to replace it with daisy petals and dew, and this potion will have a faint chrysanthemum fragrance .”

"Yes, that's right, it would be better to replace it with daisy petals and dew." Snape hastily tapped his wand, causing the modified content on the parchment to change again.

"It's just..." Snape looked at Anton suspiciously, "Does the scent of chrysanthemums have any effect?"

Anton shrugged his shoulders, "I think the pulp of Ganpu Xiaoqing orange should be added, this will remove the bitterness of this potion and make it taste better, otherwise the prepared potion will have an inexplicable taste. The mouthfeel is astringent and the taste is not smooth enough."

The corners of Snape's eyes twitched, and he tapped his wand on the table vigorously, "We are concocting potions, not delicacies!"

Anton didn't think so. In terms of potion taste, he definitely surpassed the old wizard Fiennes and Professor Snape.

"The pulp of Ganpu Xiaoqingju doesn't affect the effect of this potion, it just changes the taste. This is a very useful step."

The two stared at each other, not giving in to each other. (Anton is big-eyed, bulingbuling.)

In the end, Snape couldn't resist Anton's inexplicable persistence, and added the pulp of Ganpu's small green orange to the formula.

No way, whether he writes it or not, Anton will add it in the actual operation. Now that he writes it, he can still think about whether this inexplicable thing will really not affect the medicinal properties of the medicine.

The two had studied for a long time, and Snape obviously liked this potion very much. He hadn't been involved in the research and development of this high-end potion for a long time.

I specially got up and went out to find the teacher whose name is not in this book, and asked him to go to class instead of me.

What's interesting is that the last time he entered this wonderful research state, he was also researching will-affecting potions with Anton.

And this time, the formula obviously went deeper, more complex, more effective, and directly aimed at the target on the basis of the will-affecting potion.

Snape could feel how far Anton had gone in his potions journey.

Lao Si is very pleased.

"There was a conflict on the Quidditch pitch yesterday..." Anton just raised his head, and Snape frowned again, "I know."

Draco called Hermione a mudblood, Ron failed to attack Draco, and was affected by the snot curse to spit slugs.

Mudblood...

This word was simply a pain in Snape's heart. Back then, it was because he scolded Lily the Mudblood that caused the two to break up completely.

Anton quickly wrote the prescription on a piece of parchment.

"I cured Ron, and I used the inhalation method. You said that in the school of potion science of ancient wizards, many potions such as hallucinogens are administered in this way of 'smell' .”

Snape picked up the parchment in surprise, and corresponding to the one he and Anton had studied, he was inexplicably emotional, "Nowadays, no one studies the inhalation method, and it can only appear in some novels and operas."

Anton took a breath and stepped back tactically, "Do you still read novels and operas?"

Snape glared at him. "It's none of your business how I live."

Anton chuckled, and brought the topic back to potion research again, "Do you think if we change this potion into two parts, change this part into an inhalation type, drink this part, and apply medicine at the same time, will it be effective?" To achieve a better effect, while reducing the amount of drugs."

"You know, the cost of this prescription is too high. If the dosage can be reduced to half, it will definitely affect its popularity."

Lao Si stared at the content of the circle that Anton drew with his finger, thoughtfully, "If this is the case, we need more revisions, this is indeed a very good idea."

Discussing and researching from the morning to the evening and dusk, the two finally worked out a preliminary prescription.

Compared with the one that Anton brought to the office at the beginning, it is almost impossible to see that it is the same recipe.

After setting up the cauldron, the two cooperated with each other to process the potion ingredients.

At this moment, Professor McGonagall knocked on the office door, "Professor Snape, you have to explain to me why you didn't go to class?"

Snape froze for a moment, "I asked Willox to help me substitute for the class."

McGonagall shook her head slowly and sighed, "We were investigating the hidden Death Eaters in the school, and accidentally discovered that Willox was an undercover agent sent by the Ministry of Magic to Hogwarts, and he had been expelled from the school by Dumbledore this morning. "

"???" Snape's expression was extremely exciting, "I didn't expect this to happen, haha, Dumbledore actually asked the Ministry of Magic to send an undercover agent to the school, I think Willox has been a teacher for at least four years. "

McGonagall sighed, "This is my mistake, it's none of Dumbledore's business."

"But no one came to me in the morning and told me, who helped me go to class?"

Mag's face became calm, and he said with a smile, "Professor Lupine."

"Lupine!" Snape's eyes widened, with an absolutely unacceptable expression, "He's substituting for my Potions class?"

"Yes." Professor McGonagall looked very pleased, "Lupine was an excellent student when he was in school."

"..." Snape looked strange.

"Looks like we'll have to get another Potions teacher to help with the class."

At this moment, Anton raised his hand lightly, "I have a good candidate."

Seeing everyone looking over, Anton raised his eyebrows, "My teacher, Alex Fiennes, is the ghost at school who lost his head. His knowledge of potions is no worse than that of Professor Snape."

McGonagall looked at Snape suspiciously, and Snape nodded, "Fiennes is indeed a good candidate."

"Yes." Anton said with a smile, "I met my teacher before, and he told me that he gradually fell in love with Hogwarts."
