In addition to basic theory and the use of equipment, this class also teaches the method of brewing potion to treat scabies.

The so-called scabies potion is simply a medicine for treating skin diseases.

Can treat pustules, measles, boils and other symptoms of tuberculosis,

But the cooking process needs to be very careful.

Improper preparation can cause the potion to cause boils rather than cure them.

Unlike various spells courses, the potions course pays more attention to practice and does not teach too much theoretical content.

After explaining the process and precautions, Snape divided the little wizards into two groups and started working directly.

Crucible, grinding bowl, scale, stirring rod, knife...

Except for not using alcohol lamps, the experimental facilities in the potions class are the same as Levin's previous chemistry experimental classes.

According to Snape's explanation, the little wizards skillfully handled the medicinal materials, weighed them, coated them in egg liquid, covered them with bread crumbs, heated a pan with oil, deep-fried them until golden brown, and the children at the next table were so greedy that they cried...

To make a pot of qualified scabies medicine, you first need to take a few snake fangs, put them in a mortar, and grind them into powder.

Then weigh a small amount of dried nettles and cut into sections for later use.

At the same time, add water to the crucible and bring it to a boil, then put the slugs with tentacles in them for steaming.

Add cold water repeatedly and boil it three times. Then drain the water in the crucible, take out the slugs, put them in a grinding bowl, and grind them into a paste.

Add water to the crucible again, bring to a boil over low heat, then add fang powder, dried nettles, and slug puree in sequence.

Be careful to stir while adding,

Finally remove the cauldron from the fire and add the porcupine quills.

Let the potion sit for a while. If the potion turns blue and pink smoke rises from the crucible, it means the potion has been brewed successfully.

Levin's partner is roommate Steve,

But the entire cooking process is completely dominated by Levin.

This is not surprising,

Levin worked in a pharmacy in Diagon Alley during his summer vacation and was quite skilled in handling medicinal materials.

Steve watched with admiration the whole time as Levin showed off his skills.

It was only now that he discovered that Levin was an all-around academic master: not only was he proficient in spells and knew the textbooks well, but he was also quite good at practical courses such as potions.

But only Levin himself knew that, having taken chemistry and biology experimental classes, he was quite critical of the wizard's potion system.

In his previous chemistry experiment class, all the experimental materials were accurate to milliliters and milligrams, and the heating and resting times were accurate to seconds, highlighting the professionalism and precision. As long as the process was followed exactly, the results would be almost the same.

Only by pursuing precise standardized experimental processes at every step can we have standardized output and then develop large-scale industrial production.

On the other hand, when a wizard makes a potion, it is full of words such as "a little" and "a moment" that all rely on feelings.

Rather than saying it is a pharmaceutical process, it is more like cooking a recipe.

Just one sentence is missing: "Wrap it in egg wash and stick it with bread crumbs, and the kids next door will be crying."

Producing potions relies entirely on the pharmacist's sense. Once the sense is wrong, it can easily lead to a big mistake.

This means that potions will always be products of small workshops and cannot be mass-produced.

With such insects, how can we successfully industrialize magic?

Just like now, Levin watched helplessly as Neville tried to throw the porcupine quill directly into the crucible.

With quick eyesight and quick hands, he immediately waved his wand:

"Porcupine quills are flying!"

The porcupine quill immediately flew out of Neville's hand and fell into Levin's hand.

“Porcupine quills can’t be released until the crucible is out of the fire!” he reminded.

If Levin didn't stop him, the pot of potion would explode just like in the original novel. The wrong potion would fly everywhere, giving him red and swollen scabies all over his body.

When Neville heard this, he suddenly realized what he said and muttered: "Thank you... thank you, Levin."

Before Levin could respond, Snape's hiss sounded in his ears: "Our Mr. Green thinks that he can teach others just because he has the title of 'genius of Ravenclaw'?"

"For interfering with other people's brewing of potions, Ravenclaw will deduct 5 points!"

In the original book, the old bat was sarcastic and deducted points for Harry not reminding Neville.

Now Levin took the initiative to remind him, but he was still ridiculed and deducted points.

The old bat is indeed difficult to maintain.

However, Levin’s lesson was not without its benefits:

[You prepared a potion for the first time and mastered the skills of potion in practice. You gained the expertise [Potion Proficiency]]

[Potion Proficiency: Your stable technique increases the success rate of your spontaneous potion refining and reduces your chance of accidents. 】

[In the process of refining the scabies potion, you had a flash of inspiration and realized the true meaning of using potions to change yourself. You combined the spells you mastered to create a new potion formula: the elixir of toughness of the eternal bear and the power of the eternal bull. Elixir of Eternal Cat’s Elegance, Eternal Fox’s Cunning Elixir, Eternal Owl’s Wisdom Elixir, Eternal Eagle’s Majestic Elixir]

It’s actually a permanent elixir!

Levin was greatly satisfied with the results of this epiphany.

For wizards, the ability to cast spells is of course the most important, but physical fitness must not fall behind either.

Unfortunately, throughout the Harry Potter world, there are no potions that can improve the physical and mental qualities of wizards.

If you want to become stronger, you can only work hard on your own.

Levin also thought about when to start exercising. Even if you want to be a wizard, you must develop your moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and physical skills at the same time, and go hand in hand.

Now that there is a shortcut, there is no need to work hard on yourself.

The only concern is that the materials required for these potions are relatively precious and require time to collect.

For example, [Eternal Ox Power Elixir], the main material is the blood of Ream cattle. Since the supply of this blood is very small, it is rarely sold on the open market, and it is not easy to get it.

Another example is [Eternal Cat's Elegant Elixir] which requires ocelot's claw powder, [Eternal Fox's cunning elixir] which requires the tail tip hair of a nine-tailed fox, [Eternal Eagle's Majestic Elixir] which requires griffin's beak powder, [ The Eternal Bear's Fortitude Elixir requires Bear's Paw.

These are extremely rare materials from all over the world. If you want to buy them all, you have to spend a lot of money.

The most deceptive thing is [Eternal Owl's Wisdom Elixir], the main material is the head feathers of the owl beast, but in Levin's impression, there are no owl beasts in the Harry Potter world.

On the contrary, auxiliary materials are easier to obtain.

For example, hopla juice, moonstone, mud monster tongue, unicorn hair, etc.

You can get them all in the Forbidden Forest.

"Damn it! I just swore not to go to the Forbidden Forest, but within a few days I'm going to go back on my word. I really can't keep up with the changes in my plans."

Levin was also quite helpless about this,

What else could he do?

As long as you can become stronger, it doesn't matter if you "woof" a few more times.

Anyway, he only swore to himself, and no one else could hear him.

In short, inventing a formula does not mean that attributes can be strengthened immediately.

But it's still a good start.

This also strengthened Levin's determination to make more money.
