Return of Salazar Slytherin

"Ahh, my research was successful!" Salazar Slytherin was resurrected a thousand years after his burial. After waking up, with a body of a little wizard, he returned to Hogwarts anonymously, and then he was shocked to discover: In ancient times, some families who indulged in lust with Muggles or simply being Muggle-born claimed to be pure-blood families. The lunatic who appeared as his descendant became the dark lord that people talked about, using his own banner to promote extreme ideas. "Where are the records of all the powerful curses and charms?" "While all kinds of magic spells have become fancy, the bodies of wizards are extremely weak, even the descendants of Gryffindor are no exception." #Relaxing #SliceofLife ________ Author/Editor: This is a new take on Slytherin like someone would feel after suddenly going to the future as he lived in ancient times. A different kind of HP Fanfic. Some parts of the story can be different from the book. There will also be some butterfly effects. Thank you for reading! _________ Original MTL name: ANCIENT WIZARDS RETURN TO HOGWARTS

72- Wizards Have No Faith

In Rhys's time, African tree snake skin was not as hard to find as it is now, and wizards circulated some spells and potions to break this potion privately.

But in modern times, African tree snake skin can only be found in the storage cabinet of the potion master, and the potion to break the spell and restrain the polyjuice potion has been completely lost.

Why is this?

Because the use of polyjuice potion was too frequent before, and the main ingredient African tree snake was almost extinct. After the main ingredient was difficult to obtain, the frequency of use of polyjuice potion was forced to decrease.

Over time, the means to counter polyjuice potion were also lost.

"I understand, wizards in the past would use polyjuice potion to pretend to be characters from hostile forces, and then sneak in to steal intelligence?"

Seeing that Rhys called the polyjuice potion a war potion, Daphne felt that she had grasped the key point of the problem at once, and hurriedly spoke up in an attempt to get Rhys' praise.

Unfortunately, she was wrong, and Rhys shook his head.

"This situation is relatively rare."

If you want to pretend to be someone else through the Polyjuice Potion, you need to know that person very well, otherwise you may be exposed as soon as you open your mouth.

For example, someone pretended to be Rhys, and when Daphne pushed the door in, she found that "Rhys" was writing a paper on the history of magic.

Wouldn't this expose the other party instantly?

"The sole purpose of the Polyjuice Potion was to mimic another person - initially, pharmacists wanted to achieve more than just becoming another person's appearance, but also to imitate the magic that the person is good at."

"How can such a potion be made?!"

Daphne exclaimed.

If there is such a potion, wouldn't it be better to directly batch-copy the strongest wizards on your side before the war?

She even had dozens of Dumbledores fighting side by side in her mind.

Rhys's mouth curled up.

He really knows a potion formula that can simulate the spell that another person is good at.

It's just that the materials required were too precious even for him a thousand years ago, and it was a bit wasteful, it also required the cooperation of the person being imitated.

"During the process of making this potion, the Polyjuice Potion appeared. It can really turn you into another person. If you dare to take risks and are willing to pay the price, you can even turn into a non-human or half-human.

Do you know how meaningful it is for a wizard to physically turn into another person? This is extremely effective in improving combat effectiveness. For example, if you get Gryffindor's hair and drink the Polyjuice Potion containing his hair, you will turn into Gryffindor. Although you don't inherit Gryffindor's powerful duel magic, you also have his healthy body."

Daphne subconsciously touched her arm. If she turned into Gryffindor, how thick would her arm become!

"This means that you will gain his reaction speed, speed, and strength, which can support you to dodge the opponent's spell in a duel and fight back at the fastest speed."

At this point, Daphne understood what Rhys meant.

In ancient times, in addition to being able to turn into the appearance of other people and cause chaos, the Polyjuice Potion can also be used as a physical enhancer. A healthy and agile body can obviously help wizards win in duels.

"Okay, now you know something about Polyjuice Potion, then take a look at this." Rhys took out a parchment with words written on it from his sleaves and handed it to Daphne.

"This is..."

"The formula and key points of making Polyjuice Potion. I hope you can make a pot of Polyjuice Potion within three weeks. Of course, I will also help if necessary - after all, the skin of the African snake is very precious." Rhys had high expectations for Daphne, and she also showed good talent in the previous potion class, so Rhys chose Polyjuice Potion as her first potions test.

Daphne's eyes widened: Polyjuice Potion is an extremely complex high-level potion. Can I really make it myself? But Rhys seemed to say that there were key points for making it on it?

She took the parchment and read it carefully, but the complicated steps on it made her feel dizzy.

After reading the formula of Polyjuice Potion, Daphne couldn't help but sigh: This is not a formula that a human can come up with. I really don't know how those potions masters in the magic world came up with such a recipe.

She sighed like this, and Rhys actually explained it to her in detail.

"Originally, potion science was just a study of the effects of various magical substances - such as the detoxification effect of bezoar and fecal stone. Later, because some magical substances were too expensive, wizards began to look for combinations of substances with similar properties as substitutes, and eventually formed a variety of potion formulas.

Of course, potion science is not invented by humans alone. Some other intelligent magical creatures have also created many formulas. Because they are more sensitive to natural herbs, the prescriptions they created are even more exquisite and amazing."   

Daphne was stunned by these words.

"So how do you have all this knowledge?"

"I said, my family has collected a lot of letters from ancient wizards."

Daphne: "..."

Rhys' words made her half-believe and half-doubtful.

She was a little hesitant.

Should she ask her father to get some letters from ancient wizards?

The next pharmaceutical process was boring - before starting to make the polyjuice potion, a lot of repetitive preparations were required. Daphne was doing these tasks with her hands, and she kept chatting with Rhys.

"Will you stay in Hogwarts until graduation in the future?"

"Probably? I haven't thought it through yet, but I can go out and find a job after the fifth year."

"It's not easy to find a job with only an OWL certificate - but I can ask my father to give you a letter of introduction, which will be much easier."

"Then I really thank you."

"So.. The big snake in Slytherin's memory before, was it a god? That kind of creature is almost beyond the limit of human imagination."

Hearing Daphne's question, Rhys frowned.

"I guess so. According to the Muggle standards, that big snake can indeed be called a god."

"It's amazing. I didn't expect those legendary gods to actually exist!" Daphne's fascination for that era was almost written on her face.

"That's not bad," Rhys said with a nonchalant look, "There have never been any gods in the world. Gods are just stronger people or creatures."

Wizards have no faith, or their faith is themselves.

Muggles will shout "God" when they are in danger and extremely shocked, but wizards never do that. If they are forced to choose a name, wizards choose Merlin, the name of a legendary magician.

Rhys' words would sound very rebellious in the ears of a little wizard from a Muggle family, but they sound like common sense in the ears of a little witch from a noble house like Daphne, because real witches and wizards will not have faith in gods, only respect for the legend Merlin and a strong believe in themselves.

Listening to Rhys' words, Daphne nodded.
