Chapter 456 Envy, Jealousy, Hate

The first party at Slug Club is over.

In addition to the accident that Emma had in the middle, overall, the banquet was quite successful. Thanks to Slughorn's precise vision, everyone who attended the party met a group of companions of noble origins or outstanding talents.

This is a rare opportunity, whether for the wealthy nobles or for poor geniuses like Hermione.

The most precious wealth in the wizarding world today is neither a powerful spell nor a high-priced magic material, but a talent!

Whether it is the ancient pure-blooded nobles or mixed-blooded upstarts like Mike, their desire for talent is eternal. Muggle or mixed-race geniuses like Hermione or Harry's mother are their best investment targets. They usually use a large amount of resources to win over each other, and the most common and ultimate means to win over is marriage.

Blood relationships or family relationships are always the best tool to force others to stand with you, and this has been the case since ancient times.

But this is also a good thing for those geniuses who are not well-known and very poor. After all, in this way, they can not only obtain various resources to accelerate their growth, but also gain super high social status through marriage.

Therefore, as an upstream social tool, the role of the Slug Club is unquestionable. It not only allows the nobles to quickly meet unknown talent seeds, but also allows them to make more efficient exchanges of interests to gain more benefits and mutual benefit. As the founder of the club, Slughorn, will also gain a lot of benefits and reputation.

This is the ultimate goal he has been working hard to achieve. Judging from the current situation, Slughorn has done a good job. Through his years of hard work and the teachers and students of Hogwarts, Slughorn's Slughorn's Slughorn's Slughorn has extended its tentacles to all walks of life in the European wizarding world. If he is given some more time, he might be able to create a super club that does not belong to the extraordinary pharmacists' association or even the Raven's Claw!

There are many smart people who see this within Hogwarts, but not everyone is qualified to join the Slug Club.

For example, Drake and Pansy.

Pansy won't mention it. She is very self-aware. With the current decline of the Parkinsons, she believes that Slughorn will not let her join the Slug Club, even though her father was one of them.

So she just complained.

But Drake is different. He really can't understand what the old guy Slughorn is thinking. It would be fine if he didn't take the initiative to invite himself. Even his request to Slughorn for joining was ruthlessly rejected!

Yes, yes, Drag took the initiative to find Slughorn the day after the first banquet at Slug Club. After a displeasing negotiation, Drag became a little angry and embarrassed.

Immediately afterwards, Slughorn, the former dean of Slitherin, was boycotted by a group of radical Slitherin led by Drak. The direct result of this was that Slughorn's potions class turned into a disaster.

"Ah! My potion! Merlin's beard! Who did this!"

During the Potion class, accompanied by a huge explosion, a Hufflepuff's scream resounded throughout the classroom, and everyone, including Mike, looked over at the same time.

I saw that the operation table that was used by four people was in a mess at this time. A broken crucible was lying slanted on the operating table. The unfinished hot potion was splashed everywhere. The owner of the crucible was poured on his head and face. Now the places where the potion was splashed have turned red, and this is burned.

The three of them were in the same operating table with him and were even more unlucky. Although their injuries were not as serious as that person, the aftermath of the Crucible explosion also completely scrapped half of the potion they made!

The Hufflepuff area suddenly wailed, and the students from other academies were very calm.

There is no way, this is the tenth Crucible explosion accident this month, and they have long been used to it.

There was even a burst of gloating ridicule from Slytherin, among which Drake smiled the most proudly, but he still threw provocative eyes at Slughorn.

This action suddenly aroused the dissatisfaction of everyone present. Everyone knew very well that all the crucible explosions must have been caused by the Slytherins. The best proof of the Slytherins' crucible did not explode at once!

But the helpless thing is that they have no evidence to prove that this is what the Slytherins did, even if Slughorn is consciously guarding against the Slytherins' trouble.

Staring at Drak and the others angrily for a while, Slughorn reluctantly retracted his gaze, this time he still failed to catch the other party's handle.

He quickly waved his wand, and a stream of clear water suddenly poured out and poured on the Hufflepuffs, rinsing the remaining medicine on their bodies.

"You, you and you, send these people to the infirmary. Their burns are very serious!"

Slughorn quickly gave the order, and the boys who were called immediately stood up and stepped forward to support the Hufflepuffs to the infirmary.

They were very skilled in this set of actions. After all, Slughorn always called a few of them.

Strictly speaking, this will affect their learning, but they enjoy it because it will be extra points to do it.

Then Slughorn quickly directed the rest of the classroom to start cleaning the operating table. After everything was done, the time for get out of class was over, and Slughorn had no choice but to announce the get out of class.

The Slytherins left the classroom arrogantly, and this scene made Slughorn unhappy.

"Thanks to the other party's small moves, my original teaching plan has been greatly slowed down. If this continues, students in this period will not be able to complete this year's studies at all!

Slughorn secretly made up his mind that he must find a way to give these naughty kids some excellence!

On the other hand, Mike, Harry and others left the classroom early, but instead of returning to the lounge as usual, they blocked the door of the classroom and stared at the students passing by.

In a short while, the person they were waiting for appeared.

Hermione hurriedly walked out of the classroom with a thick stack of books. She had a heavy task today. Not only did she have to complete the homework of ancient magic literature, transformation techniques and potions, but she also had to preview tomorrow's courses and return to the lounge as soon as possible to start studying!
