Chapter 48 The Worst Potion

"You're here at the right time. Help me dissect the useful parts of these eight-eyed spiders and extract their venom." Jiang Li instructed Snape.

Snape looked in disbelief at the corpses of the eight-eyed giant spiders that had piled up to the ceiling.

"Where did you get so many corpses of Acromanthus? Did you destroy all the Acromanthus nests?"

"I'm not that cruel." Jiang Li put on gloves, held a half-man-high knife, and chopped off the spider's legs with a grin, "I didn't touch the eggs of the eight-eyed giant spider."

If she kills all the spiders at once, how can she find such good materials?

The price of eight-eyed spiders is not cheap in the market, and you can't find so many of them in ordinary places, so she has to take the sustainable development route.

Snape probably knew where she got the body from, so he resigned himself to putting on gloves and helping her decompose the body of the Acromantula.

Halfway through the work, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Wasn’t he here to receive his class reward? Why was he working?

"Where's my reward?" Snape narrowed his eyes, looked at Jiang Li and said in a sinister voice, "You don't want to tell me that you rewarded me for coming here to work for you?"

"Am I that kind of person?" Jiang Li said with great sorrow.

Snape looked at her without saying anything, his eyes said it all.

Jiang Li didn't keep the secret any longer. He threw the torn gloves away and looked at the palm of his hand.

"You take half of the dissection materials and I take half. Dumbledore and I have applied for an empty room. Half of the space will be used to make potions for you, and the other half will be used for alchemy. I will set up a magic circle and a traceless stretching spell for you near the potion room, so you don't have to worry about others disturbing you."

Snape was satisfied and bent down to continue dismembering the body.

"Severus, can you make an antidote for the Acromantula?"

Hearing Jiang Li's question, Snape answered without raising his head: "Yes, what's wrong?"

"Then please make me an antidote."

Hearing this, Snape suddenly looked up at Jiang Li.

Jiang Li raised his right arm, which had almost turned dark purple in half, and his lips were also purple.

She showed her wound to Snape and said, "I seem to be poisoned."

Snape was frightened by Jiang Li's appearance.

"Where is the Potions Room?" he asked immediately.

"It's in the third room on the second floor of the building on the far left." Jiang Li replied.

Her hands were turning purple, the venom spreading quickly.

"Are you a dummy!"

Snape couldn't help but curse, picked up the bottle of spider fluid, held Jiang Li's hand, and ordered: "Take me to the potion room you mentioned as quickly as possible."

"Mia."

Jiang Li called out to the air.

Wizards can't Apparate at Hogwarts, but house-elves can.

There was an immediate explosion in the air, and Mia, wearing a pink dress, appeared in the room.

Jiang Li ordered her, "Take me and Severus to the potion room we saw this morning."

"The master's hand was injured. Mia failed to protect the master. Mia wants to punish herself."

Mia saw Jiang Li's hand and immediately banged her head in despair.

"Okay, take us to the potions room first, then you can punish yourself."

Snape interrupted her coldly. If it was any later, Jiang Li's body would have been cold.

"Mia, take us away first." Jiang Li ordered.

Mia's eyes immediately became wet, and she sobbed as she held Jiang Li and Snape's hands and brought them to the potion room.

As soon as he arrived at the Potions Room, Snape immediately started looking through the ingredients on the shelves. After finding all the ingredients, he started making the antidote.

Jiang Li sat aside and watched curiously.

She had always been puzzled. How could Snape, who was still a young wizard with very little magic power to mobilize, make so many high-level potions?

Snape was seen brewing the potion with a serious expression, waving his wand and chanting spells into the pot. Perhaps because he was drawing out magic power too quickly, his face turned slightly pale.

The next second, Snape took out a vitality nourishing potion and a magic recovery potion from his storage bracelet, opened the two bottles of potion with one hand, and poured them into his mouth. His movements were very skillful, and it was obvious that this was not the first time he had done this.

Wow, it turns out Snape was drinking the potion while making advanced potions.

Jiang Li looked at him with great admiration.

She thought she could follow Snape's lead and prepare a few more healing potions for herself.

When making some dangerous alchemical items, you can drink potions to heal yourself while being blown up, so you don't have to worry about dying all at once.

Snape is a genius!

Snape, who was making the potion, had no idea what Jiang Li was thinking, otherwise he would have thrown two dung balls into her antidote.

He prepared the antidote as quickly as possible and stuffed it directly into Jiang Li's mouth while it was still hot, not wasting any time.

Jiang Li: “…”

I wasn't paying attention and almost choked on the potion.

There is a sour and astringent smell in the mouth, like the smell of stinky socks that have been fermented for dozens of days.

Jiang Li almost vomited. How could there be such a disgusting potion?

After drinking the antidote, the poison in Jiang Li's hands was much less severe, but his face was still very pale.

"This is the worst potion I've ever tasted!"

Jiang Li dry-heaved and felt like there was a smelly sock stuck in his throat. He could still smell it when he opened his mouth.

Seeing that she was still in the mood to talk nonsense, Snape knew that she was fine.

"If your head wasn't filled with Stipa sphenanthera, you should have known not to be distracted when dealing with the eight-eyed giant spider." He said sarcastically with a cold face.

Jiang Li knew that he was worried about him, so he smiled at Snape and said, "Fortunately I don't have any class today, otherwise I would have to ask you to help me with the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."

"Don't think about something impossible. Hogwarts does not allow an 11-year-old wizard to substitute for you in class." Snape said coldly.

Jiang Li felt a little tired. She looked at Snape and said, "Don't you need to go to class?"

"My classes for today are over. There aren't many classes for new wizards."

Snape walked up to Jiang Li, grabbed her arm and took a look. Seeing that the skin infected by the venom was gradually turning back to white, he finally relaxed.

Suddenly, his shoulders sank slightly.

He turned his head and saw Jiang Li leaning on his shoulder, falling into a deep sleep.

Snape had a lot of words in his mind but couldn't say them out loud. He frowned and sat next to Jiang Li so that she could lean on him more comfortably.

Seeing Mia still hitting her head with her fist, Snape became a little impatient.

He said to Mia, "You don't have to punish yourself. Your master is fine now. Go prepare dinner for her. She will be hungry again soon."

When Mia heard Snape's words, she seemed to be reborn and immediately ran to the Hogwarts kitchen to prepare dinner for Jiang Li.

Jiang Li felt that he closed his eyes for a while, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already dark.

"woke up?"

The boy's clear voice came to my ears.

The next moment, Jiang Li felt his head being thrown away by something.

"Wake up and go back to your room to sleep."

Snape rubbed his shoulders, looked at Jiang Li with disdain and said, "If you don't feel well, don't wander around. I will take care of all those giant eight-eyed spiders."
