Chapter 121 That’s what the Half-Blood Prince taught me [Update 14 for the elder’s wonderful memories]
Walking on the streets of Diagon Alley, Ivan looked around curiously.
A towering and solemn building like a castle came into view. People came and went here. The shiny bronze door opened inwards. Several goblins in scarlet and gold uniforms were guarding both sides of the door. They looked around vigilantly and faced the guests. It is a polite bow.
If you don't count the experiences in his memory, this is his first time here, so he is naturally interested in everything.
Along the way, Ivan also saw the ancient Ollivander's Wand Store and Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore.
But that wasn't where they were going. Ivan just looked at it a few more times, then turned around and stopped at Patchi's Crucible Shop.
"If you want a crucible, I have it there. You don't need to buy another one." Docter said with a smile.
Ivan ignored him and walked straight in. Docter sighed and had no choice but to follow.
Because it was not yet time for the little wizards to start school, there were not many customers in the crucible shop. The store manager Patchi tried hard to sell them the recently popular solid gold crucible, but Ivan refused without hesitation.
"Just a pewter crucible, give me three or five!" Ivan took out the money from the pocket of the wizard's robe and put it on the counter, using the hush money that Doggett had given him before.
"Five or five crucibles?" Store manager Partridge was also shocked. This was the first time he saw a little wizard buying so many crucibles. Then he turned to look at Docter. He felt that this was probably a child's play. It's just a noisy statement.
"Why did you buy so many crucibles?" Docter was also very surprised.
"Of course it's to make the medicine faster." Ivan glanced at him sideways, picked out a few crucibles in the store, paid for them, and then left the place directly, and went to the herb shop not far away to make some plans. After purchasing, he soon spent all the dozen or so gold galleons he had on him.
Docter was still trying to dissuade Ivan from using five crucibles to brew medicine at the same time.
"Making potions is a delicate job, and you can't be distracted at all. I can tell you from my many years of experience that potions brewed with multiple crucibles are destined to fail."
Evanli ignored him. After returning home, he couldn't wait to enter the workspace in the basement and found an open space to start preparations.
Docter gritted his teeth helplessly and decided that if there was something wrong with the potion Ivan brewed, he would do it himself, get a batch of potions and secretly replace the ones Ivan brewed, so as not to ruin his sign. .
Entering the work area, Ivan did not immediately start brewing the potion. Instead, he picked up a carving knife and modified the newly purchased crucibles and potion-making tools.
Docter looked confused and tried to interrupt several times to ask about the situation, but failed.
Two hours later, under Doggett's surprised gaze, Ivan continued to wave his wand like a music conductor during a Muggle band performance.
The potion ingredients that were placed aside and distributed according to type spontaneously jumped into the crucible.
The cutting and grinding tools on the side appeared one after another, suspended, cutting the potion materials into suitable sizes, grinding them into powder, and mixing them together.
"Isn't this?" Doggett's eyes widened, remembering Asia's magic kitchen.
But brewing a magic potion is not like cooking, it requires subtle control.
Just as Docter was about to yell, he noticed that the potion materials on the five crucibles were processed extremely accurately, without any omissions.
How can one person be distracted and do so many things at the same time?
Docter was confused.
In fact, he didn't know that Ivan had to spend his academic points to activate the thinking acceleration mode of the experience card to achieve such precise control.
Thanks to Dumbledore, who showed Ivan how to use magic to control objects when he was in the school hospital, and the inspiration from Asia's magic kitchen, this semi-finished pharmaceutical factory was created.
The originally cumbersome process of brewing the potion became a piece of cake under the control of Ivan's subtle magic power. It was even quite artistic, as pleasing to the eye as the bartender making cocktails in a bar.
Daisy roots, dried nettle powder, sunflower petals and a small peppermint.
Docter quickly recognized that what Ivan was brewing was a joy potion. As a common magic potion, the joy potion has a wide range of uses and can put the drinker in a good mood for a period of time without any side effects.
When he was treating injured patients in his black hospital, he liked to add diluted elixir to the drinking water of some patients.
This often allows patients to walk out of the hospital smiling after paying high medical bills.
But what made Doggett frown was that he remembered that peppermint was not an ingredient required for the elation potion recipe, so he interrupted.
"Why did you add peppermint? Did you remember the recipe wrong?"
"No, adding peppermint can improve the efficacy of the elixir." Ivan shook his head and explained softly.
"Impossible, why have I never heard of it? Where did you hear it?" Docter didn't believe it.
"The Half-Blood Prince taught me this," Ivan said calmly. The wand was frivolous, and the potion brewed was poured into the prepared reagent.
After finishing it, Ivan had no intention of stopping and continued to make the next batch of potions, this time the Living Hell Decoction.
The experience card mode of redeeming 100 academic points only lasted for one hour, and he didn't want to waste a minute.
Only the magic potion made in this state is the highest level he can achieve.
In addition, when Ivan read the original works in his previous life, he acquired some tips for brewing potions. The final product will be much more effective than ordinary potions. Otherwise, how could he possibly compete with those regular potions? of potions shop.
Thinking of this, Ivan suddenly felt that he had made a mistake. Why did he forget to get Snape's old textbook when he was at Hogwarts.
Ivan vaguely remembered that the thing seemed to be in the advanced class classroom of the senior grade. In addition to various potions knowledge summarized by Snape, there were also a lot of advanced magic spells in it.
Seeing Ivan's appearance of being addicted to the medicine and unable to extricate himself, Docter could only hold back his doubts and focused his attention on the five bottles of joy potion on the table.
Docter picked up one of the bottles, shook it, and found that the color was lighter than normal joy potion.
Judging from his years of making medicine, this bottle of potion is of good quality, but he clearly saw Ivan adding peppermint into it.
Logically speaking, even if the brewing of the potion does not fail, the efficacy of the potion should be greatly reduced!
