Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 155: Potions

Severus Snape's office was located differently from most professors.

His office is located in the basement of Hogwarts, adjacent to the Potions classroom, on the same corridor, where various potions and materials collected by Snape are stored.

Because of this, Snape attached great importance to the protection of his office. He did not want to see some "brave" students sneak into his office to steal things.

Suze and Rocket Raccoon asked the students along the way and soon found Snape's office.

It is worth mentioning that even in a magic school, students would still show surprise at a raccoon that walks upright and speaks human language.

A few bold girls even wanted to come over and hug him, but they were all driven away by Su Ze. He was also afraid that Rocket would suddenly open his mouth and bite them.

However, this time, Su Ze's actions were carried out openly in the school, which made him familiar to some young wizards. At the same time, the students also heard the gossip that the Muggle Studies class had a new professor.

After knocking on the door of Professor Snape's office, Suze and Rocket leaned against the door frame, waiting for movement inside.

Snape happened to have no class today, so Suze didn't have to wait too long before the door was opened from the inside.

As if he had known that Suze was coming, Snape did not seem too surprised when he saw a man and a raccoon outside the door.

"Professor Snape, I heard that you have something to talk to me about?" Su Ze followed Snape into the office and smelled a strange smell coming towards him.

The smell was like lemon and herb meeting rotten eggs, giving people an indescribable weird feeling.

Snape walked quickly to his desk with a stern face, took out a suitcase, turned around and handed it to Suze.

Su Ze also noticed that Snape didn't seem to want to communicate with him too much, but it was probably due to Dumbledore's instructions, so there were some things that he had to hand over to him.

"this is?"

Taking the box, Su Ze turned the buckle curiously and opened the box.

Then he saw a fairly neat set of clothes, high-waisted trousers with a white shirt, and a khaki vest, which gave people a very capable feeling. On the edge of the box, there was also a magic wand.

"Is this what Dumbledore prepared for me?" Su Ze raised his head.

"."

Snape looked at Suze indifferently, and after a long silence, he answered slowly.

"Dumbledore asked me to prepare it for you. As a professor, you must pay attention to your appearance, which represents the image of Hogwarts. Also, to teach here, you must have your own wand."

Listening to Professor Snape's words, Su Ze couldn't help but twitch his lips.

As a professor, you have to pay attention to your appearance? You are the least qualified person in the whole Hogwarts to say this. Just look at your hair.

However, Su Ze only complained about these words in his heart. After all, the other party had prepared these things for him with good intentions.

"Thank you, but I brought some clothes, both winter and summer, and they are more suitable for the style here." Su Ze smiled and continued. "And I also have a magic wand."

As he spoke, Suze pulled Mjolnir out from his waist and showed it to Snape.

Staring at Suze silently, Snape's face was still emotionless and gloomy, and he made a slight nasal sound.

Then he hesitated for a while and reached out to close the box. If Su Ze had not retracted his hand quickly, his hand would have been caught by the box.

"Since you are already prepared, you don't need these things." Snape snatched the box away and turned to walk towards the inner room.

But Suze reacted quickly. He grabbed the other end of the box and stopped Snape from leaving. "Don't worry, Professor Snape. Actually, I came here this time to ask you for help with something."

Snape was stunned for a moment, as if he had expected some kind of interaction between him and Su Ze. He looked at Su Ze in confusion, waiting for the other party's next words.

"It's like this, I've always been very interested in potions, but I've never been exposed to them before. I heard that you are a potion master, one of the best in the whole of Britain, so I would like to ask you to teach me some knowledge about potions." Su Ze said seriously.

Snape's eyes were cold and looked very empty. He stared straight at Suze, which made people feel a little creepy.

"Is it okay, Professor Snape?" Su Ze asked again.

This time, Professor Snape finally responded.

"You want to learn how to make potions from me?"

"Yes." Su Ze nodded. This was actually not a solution. Since Su Ze did not have wizard blood, he could not learn those interesting magic in this world. The only things he could get in touch with, besides those magic props, were potions.

Don't underestimate potions. With the right materials and recipes, even Muggles can make potions that are powerful enough to harm wizards once they become skilled enough.

These potions with various strange powers can produce special effects at any time. Most of them can be used for assistance or treatment, and some can even cause great damage to the enemy.

"It's just learning some basic knowledge. I won't take up too much of your time. If possible, I can even sit in at the back of the classroom when you're in class." Su Ze said.

He is still very interested in alchemy. This skill tree, which is completely different from Marvel magic, may help him gain more power in another world.

Although the heroes of the Avengers do have special skills, it is still difficult to face enemies that are too strong. However, it would be completely different if there were the bonus of magic potions.

".It seems that you are indeed passionate about Potions." Snape murmured softly, looking a little hesitant.

"I just want to learn more skills. You can see that there are some differences in Rocket's body, so I want to learn this course for him."

What Su Ze meant was that Rocket Raccoon had suffered damage from the inhuman transformation he had undergone. Although the Supreme Evolution had changed Rocket's body, turning it from an ordinary animal into an intelligent creature with super high IQ, Rocket's body still had a lot of damage.

Although it is not obvious on the surface, Su Ze, who has been with Rocket for such a long time, can still understand his feelings.

"Has this guy been cursed by someone?" Snape turned his gaze to Rocket Raccoon. After confirming that the other party was not an Animagus, he suspected that this little thing was affected by some magical power.

This is not surprising. In this era when technology is not particularly advanced, even wizards cannot understand such extreme technology as biological modification.

"Please, Professor Snape."

Suze did not respond to Snape's words, but spoke seriously.

"You should know that we don't have magic schools in China. I have never had a way to learn potions. This is my only way."

In the world of Harry Potter, there are many countries that do not have magic schools, and China is one of them.

Many people would wonder why there is no facility like a magic school in China, a country with thousands of years of history and vast land.

But in fact, this is normal. Precisely because of its long history, China has developed a complex "magic" system, including the Southern and Northern schools, Yin and Yang, and the Five Elements. Even the native wizards of China have not been able to sort out a thread, so how could they possibly establish a school to educate everyone?

Therefore, the biggest difference between Eastern wizards and Western wizards is that they are often based on family inheritance from generation to generation rather than Western academic schools.

However, this does not mean that the influence of Chinese wizards in the world will be low.

China also has a Ministry of Magic, and it is quite large. In 1932, Liu Tao, the Minister of Magic of China, was one of the candidates for the president of the World Magic Association. In the future, Chinese Quidditch also made it to the finals of the World Cup.

Listening to Suze's words that sounded somewhat pleading, Snape finally nodded slightly.

"If you want, you can come here to communicate when I'm off duty. I don't want anyone to disturb my class."

Hearing this, Su Ze knew that the other party had agreed. "Thank you, Professor Snape, this is very helpful to me."

"Just call me Snape."

Snape said coldly, and then he gave Suze a look, indicating that he could leave.

"Your first class is tomorrow morning. I think it's time for you to go back and prepare well."

This is true. As Hogwarts reopened, the young wizards gradually returned to the ocean of learning, and elective courses were opened one by one.

Elective courses at Hogwarts are an important part of students' learning. According to the regulations, every student must choose at least two elective courses to study after the second year.

In addition to Muggle Studies, Divination, Ancient Runes, Magical Zoology, etc. are also elective courses.

However, compared to other courses related to magic, Muggle Studies is relatively boring. Generally speaking, if you do not have enough credits, it is impossible to sign up for this subject.

This is also a good thing for Su Ze. At least when there are not so many students, he can relax a little.

The next morning, Su Ze got up early. Looking at Rocket who was still snoring in bed, Su Ze shook his head slightly and left his residence quietly.

Today is his first class at Hogwarts, so he must take it seriously. If he can communicate well with the students, it will be of great help to him in exploring the castle.

The most important thing is that those students might provide him with unexpected clues.
