Chapter 51 At least he’s not mediocre
Shocked, no one in the class spoke, they just widened their eyes. In Griffin's first class, he established a rule that no whispering was allowed in his class. In subsequent classes, people would often violate it, and these people usually ended up being scolded badly. Either they were punished badly, and over time no one would dare to violate this rule anymore.
"Hmph, there's no need to show such a surprised expression. Because I know you can't successfully refine the basic potion in the first class. However, if there really is such a genius in your class, I'll be blinded. , then I don’t mind being generous." Griffin said with a sneer.
"Okay, let's start our first practical lesson. Everyone, first bring up the crucible under the table and put it on the stove." Griffin gave his first instruction. The students below immediately sprang into action, bringing up the crucible they had noticed since the first lesson and placing it on the stovetop. Although Griffin has a bad personality, as long as you act honestly and according to his rules, he won't make things too difficult for you.
Seeing that the students below did not say a word and were all acting according to his instructions honestly, the corners of Griffin's mouth rose slightly, as if he was very satisfied with everyone's performance.
"Your efficiency is good today. No one has been stupid so far. My mood has improved by another percent today. If you can move faster, I will be more satisfied." Griffin said with his hands behind his back.
Although the crucible is not very big, it is very heavy. Even with Lin Tianlang's physique, it took a little effort to bring the crucible up to the stove. Xu Weiwei next to her was struggling even more. She seemed to have used all her strength to push the bottom of the pot with her knees, and it took all her strength to lift the crucible.
"I'm dead." Xu Weiwei mouthed to Lin Tianlang, but did not make any sound. Although Lin Tianlang didn't have the ability to read lips, he roughly guessed what Xu Weiwei wanted to say, so he just waved his hand and nodded. Anyway, just nod.
But Aniya in the upper left corner of Lin Tianlang is not so lucky. The main reason is that she is too short. If she wants to carry the crucible to the stove, she has to lift the pot to her neck. This was really too difficult for her. Aniya's face was red from suppressing the pressure and her cheeks were bulging, but she still couldn't move it up even though she had no energy to nurse.
Not only Aniya, but also other dwarf students have this situation to a greater or lesser extent. The boys are okay, although they are short, at least their strength is not a problem. But girls are having a hard time.
Lin Tianlang couldn't stand it any longer, and said nothing in a muffled voice. He just stepped forward and helped Aniya put her cauldron on the stove. Aniya glanced at Sirius gratefully, but was immediately startled because Griffin's terrifying eyes looked over here.
"Lin Tianlang, what are you doing?" There is no reason why such a big move should not attract Griffin's attention. Griffin narrowed his eyes and appeared in front of Lin Sirius and Aniya. He sneered and said, "Lin Sirius, have you done any unnecessary things beyond my instructions?"
"Teacher, I just..." Lin Tianlang wanted to explain, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Griffin.
"Answer my question!!" Griffin growled.
"Yes..." Although Lin Tianlang was angry, he also knew that arguing with Griffin was of no use, so he just nodded.
"Hmph, since you know it, why do you still knowingly commit the crime?" Griffin raised his head and looked down at Sirius.
"Teacher Griffin..." Aniya was anxious and wanted to defend Lin Sirius.
"Aniya, shut up, I'm not talking to you now." Griffin glanced at Aniya and said coldly. Lin Tianlang winked at Aniya, telling her not to speak.
"I said that in my class, any actions other than my instructions are not allowed, but this does not mean that you can't obtain my consent by making a report." Griffin glared at Lin Sirius and said: " It won’t happen next time, but you must be punished if you violate the rules. Today you go to the podium and use my crucible to operate it. Let the whole class see if you are a genius who can successfully refine the basic potion in one go."
"Yes, Teacher Griffin." Lin Tianlang's eyes widened a bit. Instead of being frustrated, he was a little surprised. As far as this punishment item is concerned, except for some social deaths, it is actually very easy, at least compared to Griffin's previous punishment methods, it is very easy.
Lin Tianlang went to the podium, and Luka and the others looked at him with gloating expressions.
"As for the others..." Griffin glanced at the other students, then moved his fingers, and then the cauldrons of all the dwarf female classmates automatically flew to the stove: "Although Lin Sirius violated my rules , but the starting point is just to help my classmates, so I won’t impose heavy penalties. But what about you? You didn’t even take any action to help your classmates. Is your cohesion so poor? My mood dropped by ten percentage points!!!" Rifen growled and said, his sharp eagle eyes scanning every student who had not acted to help just now. Among them was Luka. When he was stared at by Griffin, his calves suddenly trembled and he almost collapsed to the ground.
On the podium, Lin Tianlang let out a sigh of relief. Although it was a bit of a curve to save the country, he felt that Griffin was praising himself in disguise.
"Next, we will officially start the operation. Take out the medicine bag from the cabinet. All the spiritual materials needed to refine the basic potion today are ready. You can just follow my instructions throughout the process." Gerry Fen said in a cold voice.
"Boil the water, then add the spirit root grass. After boiling for five seconds, immediately add the zeolite powder..."
The practical operation began, and Griffin instructed the students step by step in a leisurely manner. Some people are more dexterous and can basically do every step well. But there are also some clumsy guys who start to get confused after just a few steps. Among them was Caerleon. He was in a panic and accidentally added a small amount of zeolite powder within a second. As a result, the liquid in the crucible immediately boiled and splashed all over the floor.
"Idiot!" Griffin cursed mercilessly.
Lin Tianlang was on the podium, following the operation step by step, and felt that it was not too difficult.
"Okay, for the next step, take out your knife and cut the Wulinggen into particles. Remember, it is particles, not lumps or powder, it is particles." Griffin emphasized.
The students picked up their knives and started operating on the chopping board next to the crucible. There was a sudden sound of cutting things in the classroom. Lin Tianlang was cutting the five spirit roots in his hand on the podium, but his eyes suddenly rolled up and he saw an open notebook on the podium. I hadn't noticed just now that this was actually Griffin's notebook.
"Hey, it seems that the entire process of refining the basic potion has been recorded in detail..." Lin Sirius looked at it a few more times and discovered something unusual about this notebook. Although it is correct to follow Griffin's instructions, if sometimes he speaks too fast and does not understand the steps, problems can easily arise. But it's different when you have a notebook. Just follow what's recorded on it. If you don't understand the steps, just read them a few times. Especially for the refining of the basic potion, there are no particularly complicated or difficult-to-understand steps.
After making up his mind, Lin Tianlang stopped listening to Griffin's instructions and started operating directly according to the method recorded in the notebook. Anyway, Griffin wrote the notes, and they follow Griffin's steps, so they should be similar.
Time passed minute by minute, and according to Griffin's notebook, Lin Sirius never made any major mistakes. He controlled the timing of adding spiritual materials and the control of the fire very well.
An hour later, most of the people in the class had more or less made irreversible mistakes and the entire pot of potion had been scrapped. But Lin Tianlang's medicine is getting closer and closer to success.
"The last step is to adjust the heat to a simmer and slowly simmer the potion for ten minutes. After ten minutes, if the potion appears clear and light blue, it means the refining is successful." Griffin said lightly. However, as soon as he finished speaking, Lin Tianlang's voice rang out: "Teacher, is this like it?"
Nani? The whole class's eyes suddenly focused on Lin Tianlang.
Griffin strode onto the podium with a dark face. He lowered his head and glanced at the medicine in Lin Tianlang's crucible, and found that it was indeed a clear light blue. Although it was not clear enough and a little turbidity could be seen, it was already very good.
"It's really surprising... Lin Tianlang was able to refine a potion that is only slightly worse than the standard basic potion. It has reached a level that is barely usable." Although Griffin's voice was still cold, he couldn't hide it. He was surprised. However, after seeing his open notebook, he understood everything immediately, and then sneered: "Haha, I thought a medicine refining genius was born in this class, but I didn't expect that he would be a genius who can only rely on peeking at other people's notes. The thief who is here to operate. Huh, well, if you can understand my notes, at least it proves that you are not a mediocre person."
Although he is not a genius, at least he is not mediocre. Everyone else in the class was shocked. This sentence coming from Griffin's mouth was almost the same as directly praising others as geniuses. Unexpectedly, Griffin actually praised others.
"Hmph." Griffin snorted, then casually threw a pink flower into Sirius's cauldron. With a bang, a puff of smoke suddenly rose from the crucible, and then the originally light blue potion turned into light pink.
"Oh, that's right. I used the barely usable basic potion to refine a low-level weak potion that is barely usable and not yet qualified as a low-grade weak potion." Griffin said calmly, then took out a bottle and pointed his finger at it. With a click, the liquid in the crucible suddenly flew up into a small ball, and was then put into the bottle.
"Although I don't agree with it, you can barely say that the refining was successful. I will not break my promise. This bottle of inferior low-grade weak potion is your reward." Griffin stuffed the bottle containing the potion into Lin Tian Wolf's hand, and then walked off the podium with a puff of sleeves.
