Chapter 378 Scapin Apparition Spell

It turns out that the old saying from the ancient Eastern country that good fortune never comes alone and misfortune never comes alone is true.

Before the people of Hogwarts could recover from the news of Dumbledore's arrest, they were shocked by another piece of news.

The prisoners of Azkaban escaped collectively!

Mike held a newspaper in his hand, on which were posted ten black and white magic photos, nine of which were wizards, and the remaining one was a witch.

Some of them were smiling silently, and some were arrogantly tapping the borders of their photos with their fingers.

Under each photo were their names and the crimes they had committed. Although the words written on them were just ordinary words, the meaning revealed in them reminded Mike again and again that all of them were villains with blood on their hands!

And they also had a common crime, that is, they joined Voldemort's Death Eaters and served the Dark Lord!

And the most eye-catching among them was of course the only woman - Bellatrix Lestrange. Crime: Torturing Frank and Alice Longbottom, causing them to be permanently disabled...

Mike recognized the name almost instantly, Betatrix!

She was the owner of the vault in Gringotts that they had robbed before. She was also Sirius Black's cousin and the culprit who sent Neville's parents to St. Mungo's.

Mike had seen Bellatrix when she was young. She was an extremely outstanding woman with a handsome face like Sirius.

Mike was not surprised by this. It was normal for rich people to become more beautiful from generation to generation because they could always marry the most beautiful girls. It was not surprising that a pure-blood family like the Black family, which had been passed down for thousands of years, was full of handsome men and beautiful women. What

surprised Mike the most was that Bellatrix looked so different now!

From the photo, Bellatrixner's long black hair looked messy. Her thick eyelids stared at Mike, as if she wanted to eat him alive, but there was a hint of a proud and contemptuous smile on her thin lips. From her eyebrows, Mike could even see some shadows of Sirius, but more of it was endless madness.

This must be the masterpiece of the Dementors.

Those disgusting and terrible species always make people feel despair, and living in such an environment for a long time, humans will be driven crazy even if they survive.

Shaking his head, Mike continued to flip the newspaper, and what caught his eyes was the detailed report of the Daily Prophet on this collective jailbreak.

"Many people escaped from Azkaban! What are Fudge and the Ministry of Magic doing? !"

Mike closed the newspaper after reading only the title, because there was no need to read the following content.

Mike could guess that the following words must be all attacks on the Ministry of Magic.

It must be said that the Daily Prophet's behavior is really good.

The wizarding world of Britain is already in a state of panic because of the news of Voldemort's return. At this time, the Death Eaters led by Bella have escaped from prison again. This is really bad news.

It is also a good time to let them scold the officials of the Ministry of Magic to eliminate some anger.

But the biggest problem now is how to dispel the panic of the students in Hogwarts?

The students in Hogwarts are not all stupid. There are even many smart people in them. Although these people don't say it, they have actually admitted in their hearts that Voldemort has returned!

Mike looked up at the other people in the hall, and sure enough, he saw that everyone looked terrified.

Especially Harry, he looked so panicked that he couldn't be described as panicked now. He was simply lost.

He just went to Snape's office last night for the first brain block class. I think the experience last night must not be very good.

In addition, the Quidditch game is coming soon, the training volume has increased greatly, and Umbridge is constantly picking on him. His current state must be very bad.

Despite this, Mike didn't have the slightest intention of comforting him. On the contrary, he even immediately pulled Franklin out of the hall - it was time for class!

Mike's entire morning today was occupied by the Potions class, which made many people look unhappy. After all, it was not a pleasant experience to rush to the cold and damp basement as soon as you got up in the winter.

But not everyone looked unhappy. When Mike and others entered the Potions classroom, they found that Professor Snape, who usually had a sour face, was standing on the podium and laughing.

Although the smile was quickly restrained, many people, including Mike, saw this scene.

For a moment, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Snape was in a good mood, so their lives would be much better.

Only Mike secretly thanked Harry.

"Uh hum! Hurry up and go back to your seats!"

Snape cleared his throat and said seriously. Hearing this, everyone didn't dare to continue looking at him and quickly returned to their seats.

"Franklin! Why is your tie crooked?!" Snape suddenly roared, "I think you want to be special on purpose! Five points deducted from Ravenclaw!"

"I..."

Franklin was confused, muttering as if he wanted to refute, but at the last moment he held back and didn't say anything.

Ever since Snape knew that the rumors about him and Umbridge in the school came from Ravenclaw (Ron didn't dare to betray Mike, and only said that it was said by someone from Ravenclaw), Snape has been trying to retaliate. After

being targeted for a long time, the people of Ravenclaw also understood a truth: never argue with Snape about the correctness of the deduction, because he will find a reason to deduct more points from you!

Therefore, Franklin was silent, staring at the desk with frustration, with anger in his eyes.

Snape on the podium felt a little disappointed when he saw that Franklin had no reaction. He frowned and said to the students:

"Today we are going to learn the Scarpin Apparition Charm. If you have previewed the text as instructed, you should know that this is a spell that can analyze the ingredients of potions. It is an extremely important spell for the entire science of potions, because it can show you the composition of the potion in a clear and magical way, allowing you to analyze it more calmly and to add or reduce certain ingredients. Therefore, the birth of almost any new formula throughout history is closely related to it.

Of course, it has another function, which is to reverse the potion formula! Many people in history have done this. They analyzed those unique formulas and made a lot of money! I don't recommend you to do this unless you want to spend the rest of your life in Azkaban. But I think I should be overthinking it. After all, you are just a group of stupid giants. With your brain, I am afraid you can't do things like reverse the potion formula! Most of you may not even be able to release this spell. After all, it is too difficult for you. So, now, please open the wooden box in front of you! "

Snape sprayed venom to everyone without hesitation, but everyone has been accustomed to Snape's way of speaking for so many years. They directly ignored the unpleasant words in it, listened to the order and opened the box, and saw a small bottle of unknown liquid without any label in the box.

"This is the water of life and death that I prepared by myself! Your task today is to use the xx analysis method to completely analyze the ingredient list of this bottle of life and death water! "Snape said in a strange tone," I think you should remember the formula of the water of life and death even if your brain is as big as an apple. So I added some other things in it. If someone can't tell what I added before the get out of class is over, Then... hehe~"

Snape's speech ended with a creepy sneer. Although he did not clearly state what would happen if the task was not completed, everyone was very alert and poured some of the special water of life and death in front of themselves as quickly as possible.

Then, many people began to scratch their heads. Most of these people had not prepared before, because anyone who had prepared before would have found that the detailed steps of the Scarpin Apparition Charm were printed in their textbook, "Advanced Potion".

Mike had not done any preparation like them, but Mike had the help of Benjamin, a potion genius, so in fact, Mike had mastered the release techniques of the Scarpin Apparition Charm before this class.

He poured some of the water of life and death into a beaker like everyone else, and then took out his wand and waved it lightly at the beaker.

Then, a magical scene happened.

The transparent liquid in the beaker suddenly disappeared. The fog disappeared, replaced by a thick mist.

The fog floated in front of Mike for a long time, and at the same time, Mike's mind automatically emerged with the configuration of the fog in front of him:

narcissus root, wormwood... and the last one, lavender and icing sugar!

Mike's pupils suddenly dilated a little. At this moment, he really admired Snape's attainments in potions.

He actually thought of adding lavender and icing sugar to the water of life and death to change the taste and smell of the water of life and death, making it a hypnotic drink with lavender fragrance and sweetness!

And according to the test results of Scapin's Apparition Spell, the effectiveness of this water of life and death has not been weakened after adding these two materials. On the contrary, its hypnotic effect has become stronger!

This is a bit scary!

You know, potion science can be said to be a rigorous science. It is extremely difficult to improve those fixed formulas!

But Snape actually had an improved formula at hand, and it seems that the formula was invented by him!

"Professor," Mike raised his hand and said, "You added extra lavender and icing sugar in it, right?"

Hearing this, Snape's expression instantly became extremely ugly. He stared at Mike blankly, and then nodded slowly after a while.

Now everyone else in the classroom was furious.

Many of them had tried it just now, but only Mike succeeded!

"Is this a genius? I'm stupid!"

"I'm stupid too, but did you see Snape's expression just now? I think he was really stupid! But this is too funny, Snape said we couldn't reverse the formula, and then Mike reversed the formula, hahaha! "

Listening to the whispers coming from all around, Mike frowned again.

He found that what Snape said just now was actually right in a sense.

Some students in this classroom are really troll-brains. They even think that they have deduced the formula of the water of life and death.

Such people are really stupid, because they don't even know the effect of the Scarpin Apparition Charm and the essence of the potion formula.

You must know that a complete potion formula is not just a list of ingredients. It must also clearly mark some of the processes and possible situations in making this potion.

But the Scarpin Apparition Charm can only parse out the most basic list of ingredients, so it is indeed an extremely difficult task to reverse the potion formula.

Snape also heard the whispers of those people, and his face instantly became darker.

And the students who were whispering also noticed Snape's expression and immediately shut up.

Unfortunately, it was too late!

"You two, you will be put in detention tonight!" Snape yelled, "In addition, Hufflepuff will be deducted 10 points for making a lot of noise in class! "

The two men were obviously old hands, and they did not continue to chat with Snape, but silently accepted the punishment.

Franklin, who was standing by, also laughed secretly when he saw this, but it was a pity that he was called out by Snape again before he could be happy for long.

So far, Snape finally vented his anger and began to explain the tricks of the xx observation method. As for the fact that Mike was the first to successfully analyze it, Snape completely ignored it.

After class, Franklin immediately regained his spirit, grabbed his schoolbag and ran out of the basement, so he was deducted five points by Snape again, on the grounds that students were not allowed to run in the corridor.

But Franklin obviously didn't care about these, Mike even I even doubt that he didn't even hear Snape's voice, because his running speed didn't seem to slow down at all.

Mike also knew the reason why Franklin was so anxious. The first official Quidditch game of the year was about to start at noon today. The two sides were Slytherin and Gryffindor, two old enemies.

As an avid Quidditch fan, Franklin naturally couldn't miss such a game.

Shaking his head, Mike packed up his things and walked out the door.

Of course, he didn't go to watch the Quidditch game. He was not interested in that kind of sport.

Mike had only one destination, and that was Professor Flitwick's office.
