Science and magic at Hogwarts

Chapter 5 Severus Snape

After dinner, Kyle continued to study hard in the library.

The foundation of Hogwarts for thousands of years is really unfathomable, and countless knowledge in the huge library is waiting for Kyle to discover.

Flying has been a dream of mankind since ancient times, and Kyle started from this point, first researched the flying spell, then exchanged the output for funds, and then used the obtained funds to promote his own research.

Only by falling into a virtuous circle can you prevent yourself from going bankrupt.

In addition to the flying spell discussed with Professor Flitwick,

Kyle is still studying the floating spell, the flying spell, the rune used in the broomstick, etc.

Includes some flying enchantments found in the library.

By comparison, Kyle has basically figured out the basic runes of flight and the control unit.

What Kyle needs to do now is to find a way to connect them with a magic circle,

而且要让串联后的效果是1+1大于2，而不是1+1小于1，这才是最难的。

In a magic circle, in addition to the main rune to realize the purpose of the magic circle, various basic runes are also used.

Those that transmit magic power, those that increase the effect, those that shield the effect, etc.

The magic circle can be regarded as an article written in magic script, and the sentences in the article should be arranged according to the style of the magic circle.

So mastering the magic text is just the beginning.

The next step is to write sentences. The sentences should be smooth, concise, and at the same time, there should be no ambiguity.

Then you have to put the sentences into writing, which is the hardest part.

There cannot be such a situation that the people can make it known but cannot make it known.

It can't appear that the magic text is true, but the sentence written in the end is that I ate fruit and then had diarrhea.

Kyle believed that the consequence of using runes in this way was nothing but explosions.

At eight o'clock in the evening, just when Kyle was tortured by the tome of magic books and wanted to go back to the dormitory to continue thinking,
A first-year snake walked up to Kyle and whispered:
"Sha...Senior Shafik, Professor Snape invites you to his office."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and didn't dare to see Kyle's reaction, turned his head and ran away.

The sharp-eyed Kyle seemed to see the red corners of the little snake's eyes.

Well, another kid who was deceived by rumors.

Thinking that Kyle has always been hospitable and made many friends, he must not do anything to bully children.

I don't know what he was afraid of, probably because Feng Da was blinded.

No longer thinking about the little snake, Kyle walked unhurriedly to the door of Snape's office, straightened his robe a little, and knocked on the door.

Boom, boom, boom

The door of the office opened, unexpectedly, besides the professor, Malfoy, who had just enrolled this year, was also in the office.

Glancing at Malfoy, Kyle bowed slightly and said:

"Professor, are you looking for me?"

Snape glanced at Kyle, just nodded, and then raised his hand to signal Kyle to wait.

Then, a deep voice sounded slowly:

"Mr. Malfoy, I believe your shrewd father has told you how to live in Hogwarts,

I also believe that being a qualified Malfoy can guarantee you a comfortable living environment wherever you are."

After speaking, he stopped looking at Malfoy.

"Of course, Professor."

He bowed full of aristocratic demeanor, and nodded politely to Kyle, then turned and retreated, and gently closed the door.

"Why, your simple brain finally remembered that you want to make friends with nobles?"

Seeing Kyle's thoughtful look, the Snake King of Slytherin sprayed venom.

"Of course not, Professor, it's just that I suddenly discovered that Mr. Malfoy's performance is not as bad as the rumors say."

"Of course," the professor said dismissively, "As the most glamorous aristocrat who has ever lived, how could Malfoy be a brainless idiot!"

Except when facing Potter.

Of course, Kyle only dared to think about this sentence in his heart, but did not say it.

Since school started for so long, Malfoy's performance in front of Potter can only be described as horrible.

"Then, professor, you finally made up your mind to teach me how to improve reputation, brew glory, and even prevent death." Kyle teased.

As a source of trouble for the professor who caused countless troubles and was stared at by the snake king's death eyes for three years, it is obvious that Kyle has developed a certain degree of immunity to the professor.

And this sentence was exactly the opening remarks of the professor in Potter's first Potions class.

"You have come here to learn the delicate science and exacting craft of potion-making.

Since there's no silly wand waving here, many of you won't believe it's magic.

I don't expect you to really appreciate the beauty of the simmering cauldron emitting white smoke and bursts of fragrance,
You don't really understand the liquid that flows into people's veins, that magical power that makes the heart sway and the mind bewildered...  

I can teach you how to raise your reputation, brew glory, even prevent death—

But it has to be that you are not one of the slobbery idiots I often meet. "

In line with the professor's long greasy hair, sallow, gloomy face, and unwavering voice like a record player,

As well as the black robes rattling behind the striding meteors, after an intimidating opening remark, the whole class fell silent.

It has to be said that as the dean of Slytherin, whether it is the demeanor of his gestures or the tone of his words, he is full of aura.

Mixed with fierce, gloomy, and vicissitudes of life, the professor cannot be ignored wherever he stands.

"It seems that I have to remind you, Mr. Kyle, don't use your barren brain to imagine the greatness of potions,
Why, the professors of rune and alchemy can't satisfy you anymore, have you finally thought of your poor dean? "

The slow speed of speech combined with the cold tone of the professor and the direct gaze of the scary eyes,

Even with Kyle's psychological quality, he couldn't help feeling nervous and turned his eyes away unnaturally.

He knew that this was the professor expressing his displeasure at his neglect of Potions.

"Stop making fun of me, Professor."

"You know, in my mind, potions and other subjects are worth exploring for a lifetime, but you know me, I just want to move towards the goal in my heart."

After listening to the professor, he sneered coldly, but he didn't continue to pester him, but instead said:

"I heard that you have been paying attention to the great savior recently?
You've had enough trouble, hope you know what to do and what not to do. "

"Of course, Professor." Kyle replied, "I'm just curious about how the savior is different."

The professor was obviously dissatisfied with this slightly perfunctory answer, but he didn't say anything more.
Just as Kyle can figure out the professor's thoughts a little bit, the professor can probably guess a thing or two about Kyle's thoughts.

Because of this, the professor believes that the reason is more than that simple.

But obviously, the professor just wanted to remind Kyle not to cross the line, and then said:
"Mark your words, Mr. Kyle."

While speaking, he took out a roll of parchment, handed it to Kyle, and said:
"Okay, you can go back, I believe you will not like the punishment after being caught at curfew."

He didn't take the professor's sarcasm to heart, but looked at the parchment with a slightly eager look. These are some questions Kyle asked the professor during the holiday.
Now, the answer finally came.
