Chapter 117 The strongest potion genius in history!
If I could use a more accurate metaphor.
Snape is like a junior potion refining lv1 (95/100), and Fang Mu is a junior potion refining lv2 (0/200).
The difference of five points is the difference between lv1 and lv2.
Potions class ended, and what happened in the class quickly spread throughout Hogwarts.
Unlike Charms, Potions requires even more talent!
To put it bluntly, magic spells are techniques for using magic power.
As long as there is magic power in one's body, one has talent, but this talent can be high or low.
Students at Hogwarts, as long as they study hard, can basically reach the Level 2 level of Elementary Charms in their second year. No matter how talented they are, they can definitely reach it in their third year.
Potions is different.
This is an extremely precise and rigorous science and craft.
The combination of various materials, and how to distinguish the difference between each material, even the same material has different potency in different years, and how to readjust it.
There is also the dosage required for each material. These can even be as fine as a few tenths of a gram. A small amount can lead to failure in refining the magic potion.
This is still the simplest step in refining potion.
The most difficult part is during the process of refining the potion.
Needless to say, put in various materials in order, this is the most basic thing.
The difficulty lies in two of them.
Control the heat and the time to put in the ingredients.
The difficulty with these two points is that they are not fixed!
In the process of refining potions, various accidents may occur at any time.
Accidents may occur because of the equipment, materials, or even the surrounding environment, etc.
If you prepare well in advance and put all the materials in the correct order, there will generally be no major surprises.
As long as you don't refine that extremely troublesome magic potion, at least the frying pan won't happen.
But there is no telling whether the magic potion can be successfully refined.
Even if everything is put in in the correct order, if the heat is not controlled well or the time is not correct, it may still lead to failure in refining the potion.
To successfully refine a magic potion, you must at least meet the basic requirements in terms of heat and time.
And if you want to perfectly refine a bottle of magic potion, the requirements are even higher.
Both the heat and the time need to be extremely precise, and in many cases even need to be accurate to the second.
If refining magic potion is constant, then this requirement is nothing to most magicians. Their mental attributes are strong and they only need to remember a time, so there is nothing difficult about it.
But the key is that refining magic potion is constantly changing. It is constantly changing according to different materials, different heat conditions, and even different environments each time.
At this time, there is no point in keeping track of time.
You need to constantly make corresponding adjustments based on changes in the crucible.
This is an extremely complex and challenging process.
If you refine potions a lot, you can naturally sum up the relevant experience and make the best adjustments.
But if this is your first time refining
Anyway, even a famous potion genius like Snape could not perfectly refine a potion the first time.
"According to legend, there is a kind of magic potion genius. They are born with a strong talent for refining potions. Even if they are refining potions for the first time, they can feel the most subtle changes in the crucible extremely keenly, so as to make
Make the best adjustments!”
"Oh my god! Is there such a talent in the world? With such a talent, isn't that person destined to surpass Professor Snape in his future achievements in potions?"
"It's very possible! With such a top talent in Potions, as long as Fang is willing to spend more time on Potions in the future, surpassing Professor Snape is nothing!"
"Ahem!"
A companion next to him quietly pulled the classmate who was speaking a little excitedly. The classmate was a bit belated and turned his head, his face turned pale with fright.
"Professor Snape."
Professor Snape glanced at this man and left without saying a word.
As soon as Professor Snape left, the classmate almost collapsed to the ground.
"It's over! I actually said that in front of Professor Snape. Do you think I'm dead?"
He looked at his companion with longing eyes.
His companion responded with a sympathetic look.
Fang Mu's performance in Potions class was constantly spread, and after becoming the strongest freshman in a century, he gradually began to gain another title.
The most powerful potions genius in history!
Regarding this title, unlike the title of the strongest freshman in a century, there are not many doubters of the title of the strongest potion genius in history.
The title of "The Strongest Freshman in a Century" is mostly called this by people in Ravenclaw, and also by a small number of people in Hufflepuff.
But most others, especially Gryffindor, who produced Dumbledore, and Slytherin, who produced Voldemort and Snape, do not agree with this title.
The reasons for disapproval are also very unified.
This is just the first week of school, why do you think he is the strongest freshman in a century?
What if he fails later?
This reason supports them and they firmly disagree with this title.
In their words.
After this school year is over, if you still perform so well, then say this again!
However, the Ravenclaws estimate that after this school year is over, if their skills are still so good, they will definitely have new reasons!
No one wants to be lower than others.
Especially Slytherin and Gryffindor, who have occupied the center of Hogwarts for the past hundred years.
Because of the existence of Dumbledore, Voldemort and Snape, Gryffindor and Slytherin are far more famous than the other two major houses.
It would be difficult for Ravenclaw, the third oldest in the world, to rely on the square wood to stand up in one fell swoop and overwhelm them! It would be too difficult!
Needless to say, the importance of fame.
A very simple example.
After Qingbei, where is the third university?
Gryffindor and Slytherin relied on their fame to steal too many outstanding students.
Just like Hermione.
The most suitable house for her would be Ravenclaw.
But in the end, she went to Gryffindor.
Not to mention how much inside information there is, there are too many things hidden behind this choice alone.
When countless Hogwarts students began to discuss Fang Mu's performance, and even started to argue.
Somewhere in the school.
It was completely silent here.
Only the sound of the burning fire spread gently to every corner of the room.
