Still in the traditional group of two, Snape checked everyone's work. Except for a few people, most of them were sprayed bloody.
Among them, Neville's team was the most powerful. As expected, Moxxi lit the cauldron on fire again. As expected, both cauldrons exploded. As expected, Moxxi happened to be away, and Neville was unfortunately hit.
It's like setting off a halo to trap your teammates.
It's strange to say that as long as there are two people in a group, accidents will definitely happen, and Moxxi will be fine. With the frequency of accidents and the fact that he can survive every time, it is difficult to imagine that he did not do it on purpose.
As for whether it is, only he himself knows.
Snape waved his wand again to clean the table. As usual, he asked for a bottle of potion from Dudley and gave it to Neville. The way Neville drank the potion with his eyes closed was so skillful that it made people feel distressed.
"Gryffindor, terrible, one point deducted."
Nesp said coldly.
Moxxi didn't care about it like a normal person. Someone would add up the score anyway. Even when Snape turned around, he winked at the Gryffindor wizards around him, but Neville shrank. He shrank his neck, thinking it was because he was sad about losing points in the academy, and was even more afraid of Snape in his heart.
"Look, Weasley and Potter were not scolded by Professor Snape."
A sharp-eyed Gryffindor noticed that Snape only stopped for a moment on Harry and Ron's group and then walked away without starting to complain.
Probably because Porter did really well this time.
With Dudley's guidance, Harry's potion skills were not only the best, but also ranked among the first year wizards.
But it was certainly not enough by Snape's standards.
So Snape likes to find fault with Harry, even if Potter does it better than most people, especially when two people are in a group, and Harry brings a slut Ron, the probability of being criticized is greatly increased. .
However, everyone found it a bit strange at best and didn't pay much attention to it.
Today is a two-part potion class. The first class is about brewing potions in pairs, and the second class is about individuals.
The potion brewed this time was a little more difficult than the one in the previous lesson.
But Snape's standards have not dropped at all.
Snape picked up Ron's potion, looked at it, and said the word "good" lightly. He didn't add any points and just put it back silently.
"That Weasley wasn't scolded by Professor Snape!"
The Gryffindors felt like they had discovered a new world.
Before, it was easy to say that they were in a group of two, which could also be explained by being exposed to Potter light. But now we are alone, and the difficulty is even greater than last time. There are only a handful of people in the entire classroom who have not been sprayed by Snape, and there are a large number of Slytherins.
Apart from Ron, only Hermione and Harry in Gryffindor were not scolded.
Fortunately for Hermione, after all, she had not been scolded since the beginning of school. Harry...Harry was automatically ignored by them.
But why would a mere Weasley not be scolded?
If Ron's previous grades in Potions were good, then everyone can understand that the problem is that Ron's grades in Potions were at the lower-middle level.
"You see the instruments on Weasley's desk are different from ours."
The sharp-eyed little wizards had discovered the key to the problem and pointed at Ron's desk and shouted. For this, Snape once again deducted a point from Gryffindor for disturbing the order of the class.
The little wizards saw many unknown instruments placed on Ron's table. It was obvious that they were not tools commonly used in potions classes.
"Harry's there too..."
(Harry is quite popular in Gryffindor. Many people call him by his name affectionately, and he has a good temper and doesn't mind this.)
Another blind monk discovered Hua Dian.
"Granger has it too!"
"Wait... look, Malfoy has one too!"
Even if they were deducted points, it could not stop the curiosity of the little wizards. They discussed in private and in low voices. Even the Slytherin side also talked in low voices in twos and threes.
No one likes to be trolled, even if it's their dean.
Snape often favors Slytherin, but when it comes to potions, I'm sorry, if you don't do well, you will be criticized.
Gower and Crabbe are typical examples. They are criticized in almost every class.
But there's nothing we can do about it, what they did is really bad. It was obviously an antidote, but the decoction in their cauldron looked like poison.
So as soon as this matter was mentioned, it attracted the attention of all the little wizards.
New potions equipment?
Who gave it to them?
Two questions hung over everyone's minds, but because they were in Snape's class, no matter how curious they were, they didn't dare to run over and ask.
I can only bury this question deep in my heart and ask for clarification after class.
"Dursley, not bad..."
Snape walked up to Dudley and picked up the potion he had brewed very skillfully.
Through the sunlight through the glass bottle, you can see the crystal clear liquid inside.
'Perfect! '
Snape nodded and put the potion in his pocket.
"One point for Slytherin."
Then he walked away.
During the two classes, Ron stole the show, and he really enjoyed the envious looks from the little wizards.
Great, great.
He had never felt that Potions class could be so relaxing and enjoyable.
Even Snape's sullen face seemed less annoying.
This was all thanks to the instruments Harry gave him, and to Mr. Dursley.
The moment Snape finished his homework and announced the end of get out of class and walked out of the classroom, the little wizards around him immediately gathered around him.
There is no doubt that of the people who used those instruments, Ron was the one who best asked for the results.
Of course it was limited to the Gryffindor side, while the Slytherin side gathered around Malfoy.
Ron was a little flattered by being admired by so many stars, and suddenly felt that maybe today was his lucky day.
After the young wizards repeatedly asked earnestly, he cleared his throat and said slowly and in an increasingly proud tone: "You know, my potion skills are worse than many of you here... To be honest Yes, I’m not good at potions. I thought that I would always fail in potions in this life... Until today, after I use these things... it’s amazing..."
A bunch of nonsense, until the little wizards couldn't bear it anymore, he said the important point.
"This was given to me by Mr. Dursley, Harry's cousin. It is a timeless product."
"It can greatly improve the level of potions. You have also seen the effect. It is great. Even Professor Snape said it is good."
Harry silently gave him a thumbs up for that exaggerated tone, which was stiffer than the shopping sales pitch on TV.
But the little wizards didn't see it.
On the other side, Malfoy said the same to the Slytherins around him in the same tone.
