"An effective potion requires the participation of a magic wand. Of course, it is not a foolish, uninterrupted wave of the magic wand. Just a light wave at a critical time is enough to cause a wonderful change in the material in the cauldron..."

"So the Muggles can't appreciate this wonderful process, and so can the dumb gun." Snape said slowly.

On the weekend of the first week after school started, Professor Flitwick held an afternoon tea party under the pretext of celebrating Professor Moody’s recovery, although in Felix’s view, the tough former Auror didn’t need these things. .

Moody ate what he had brought without touching the delicate refreshments on the table.

When he appeared here, it meant that Snape's one-week substitute career was over, so when Felix asked about potions, he seemed cold.

Snape sat on a soft chair and slowly said the topic just now: "We do not rule out the following situation: some simple potions can be spontaneous without the participation of a magic wand, or even the subtle guidance of magic. The ground produces an effect, but it is more similar to stimulating the original characteristics of the potion material. In the eyes of those who really understand potions, it is just a semi-finished product."

Felix knew that the pet tonic formula he gave to Filch was that no wand was needed in this case. The main ingredient was dragon blood. As for the auxiliary materials, they only played a role in stimulating and alleviating the characteristics of dragon blood.

For wizards, the effects of some potions are similar to spells. The choice of which one to use is related to the wizard. In other words, they will choose the simple or most effective method among the potions and spells to achieve their goals.

Perhaps money is also an important consideration.

For example, Happiness Charm and Happiness Potion can be substituted for each other in most cases. Happiness Mantra is the teaching content of magic spells in the third grade, and Happiness Potion is only available in the sixth grade advanced potion improvement class, but if you ignore it when you are in school This seemingly trivial spell lesson, it is not easy to learn the happiness spell through self-study, especially the lame happiness spell will have side effects such as hysterics and endless laughter.

In this case, most wizards will choose to buy a delight potion at a pharmacy.

Flitwick waved his magic wand and caused an enamel teapot to bend over and fill the cup in front of him. "I heard that some wizards would choose to use magic rituals instead of wands when making potions, Severus?"

"There are also repeated spells..." Snape said, "This kind of situation usually happened in the Middle Ages. Some shallow wizards could not control their own magic power, and naturally they could not guide and control it as a dumb gun. So They choose this way."

Felix murmured: "I seem to have read similar statements somewhere."

"I guess it's a Muggle fairy tale? There are indeed some imprudent wizards who were discovered and burned to death." Snape glanced at him and said.

"That's a long time ago, we'd better talk about something else," Professor McGonagall said uneasily, and she turned to the side. "Professor Moody, are you going back to class next Monday?"

"It's been delayed long enough," Moody bit on a piece of chicken that looked dull. "I plan to solve it during the holidays without delaying class! But Professor Haipu insisted on completing the last round of inspection..."

"Has your memory not recovered?" Professor McGonagall asked him, but his eyes turned to Felix.

"Voldemort's methods are very rough, and I have lost more memories than I originally estimated, maybe because his soul is also tainted by black magic?" Felix said softly.

"At least I haven't become an idiot, haven't I?" Moody said gruffly, let out a short laugh, stretched out his oily hand to take the cup on the table, and the moment his fingertips touched the cup, he looked like It stopped like an electric shock.

Quietly, he took off the hip flask around his waist and poured it out. After drinking, he dressed roughly and said, "I lost the original one. This one is brand new. Albus gave it...He is very considerate in these matters."

‘In fact, it’s still influential,’ Felix thought, ‘not just a memory problem, even his reaction will slow down and his fighting power will be much lower than before. ’

What he has done during this period is to eliminate the adverse effects as much as possible.

Moody gritted his teeth and tore off a piece of chicken and chewed it. He said nonchalantly: "Compared with the old Barty, I'm already good. His body is over. I guess he can't stand it in Azkaban. several years."

"Barty Crouch is locked in?" Flitwick asked sharply.

Several people looked over, and Moody said coarsely, "Yes, what Kingsley told me was what he insisted on. Before being taken to prison, he and Fudge talked alone." It was strange to see other people. With a look in his eyes, he waved his hand roughly and almost hit Flitwick in the nose. "Oh sorry, Professor Flitwick, don't ask me, I don't know what they said, maybe it has something to do with Voldemort?"

"As for whether Fudge will believe it or not, no one knows." He took another big gulp. "The man looked indecisive, but he was actually very paranoid and wishful thinking. But anyway, he didn't seem to want to cause too much panic. Putting down Barty’s affairs, many people thought he was retired!"

He grinned and smiled sarcastically.

"I can't listen to him. Some things must be reminded for everyone. It's better than knowing nothing when it comes."

"Professor Moody," Professor McGonagall pursed her lips, "You, uh, don't you want to do something to the little wizard, do you? Some previous practices..." She cleared her throat quickly, looking embarrassed.

"Are you trying to say what I did before? Some classes were not taught by me, but they do suit my mind." Moody gave a short smile and said grinningly: "He imitated it quite a bit, I taught him a paragraph. Time, there can be this part of the reason."

The others looked at Moody in a daze.

Moody laughed and said, "Old Batty wants to train his son to become an Auror. He has been training with those candidates since the fourth grade. The training time is longer than the average Auror. When he graduates, he The results are far ahead."

"I remember he got twelve certificates." Flitwick said. "Since I taught, only a few people have received this honor."

"I'm not talking about the paper results, but the collective evaluation of the Aurors. I also taught him the part of detecting and arranging traps for a period of time. At that time, everyone thought that Little Crouch would become an excellent Auror. , Take his Lao Tzu's class!"

Everyone felt slightly unwell. The better Barty Crouch Jr. behaved during school, the stronger the contrast with the realization behind him. Instead of becoming an Auror, he chose to become a Death Eater.

Flitwick changed the subject and said: "Felix, the gift you gave me is very good. I have already seen it. I have to say that some gestures in Africa are very good and can be used as auxiliary means. I am ready to add a bright face. In the content of the class."

Felix smiled and said: "I asked some friends to recommend to me the book list..."

Professor McGonagall frowned and said: "Vagado's teaching method is very different from Hogwarts. They will determine the research direction very early, so they can disassemble and break up many advanced contents. It is integrated into the teaching of the lower grades, but Hogwarts is different. The students who really choose morphology in the sixth grade are only a small part of ~www.novelhall.com~What about the part of human deformation? Maybe it can be placed in yours In the Deformation Club?" Felix suggested.

"This is indeed a good method," said Professor McGonagall. "My club only absorbs sixth and seventh grade students. They have gone through OWLs exams, and many skills are naturally mastered, just like the'pre-knowledge you mentioned'. '?"

She uttered a slurred word, "However, Vagado does not have a lot of knowledge about deformation, and it is very common for African elephants. However, if the congenital conditions are not enough, it may only become a malnourished one. Thin elephant. From this perspective, it's not as good as Animagus."

Felix also said with approval: "Animagus has a certain degree of randomness after all, which is related to the mental state of each wizard. If you become a snail, you might as well choose an African elephant."

Professor McGonagall looked over sternly: "Felix, you haven't learned Animagus privately, have you?"

"How is it possible," Felix curled his lips, "If you are a wizard who is interested in mastering transfiguration, you can also experience the mystery of transfiguration, but I am not...I think this magic is too cost-effective."
