I was expelled from Hogwarts?

Chapter 110 Hatching Basilisk



Rove really wants to change carriages now.

In the opposite carriage, there is a very vigilant and strange uncle with a strange daughter;

In the left compartment, there is a witch who wanders around in her pajamas and likes to spy on other people's compartments.

In the room on the right, there is a tall, burly, ferocious middle-aged wizard, snoring loudly.

Rove found that the neighbors he met on this trip seemed to be weird, and he was the only one who was normal.

For the sake of safety, he arranged a lot of protective magic on the door before getting into the black leather case.

Standing in front of a cave, Rove heard a low curse sound coming from the cave.

Cruel... blinded us... Slytherin will kill you... kill you... eat you... curse you...

Rove hissed and ordered, Come out.

The cursing sound disappeared immediately, and the basilisk came out of the cave. It raised its head and opened its mouth, revealing two ivory-colored fangs.

Rove sat on a rock and asked, Who were you cursing just now?

We didn't say anything... Wizard, you heard it wrong... Hiss... Don't wrong us... The basilisk lowered its head and sobbed loudly.

If you don't love, please don't hurt us! Our eyes have been stabbed blind by you, you won't hurt us again, right... little wizard?

Why do you always like to talk about us? Rove frowned.

It's us...hiss. The basilisk said: There are two souls in us...it has been whispering to me...encourage me not to be afraid...talk to me when I'm lonely...

Can basilisks be schizophrenic? Rove had only heard of schizophrenia in humans, with many personalities separated, but this was the first time he saw basilisks with such symptoms.

But after more than 900 years of being locked up in a secret room, schizophrenia doesn't seem so incomprehensible.

You don't understand, little wizard... hiss. The basilisk raised its head, pointed at the young man with its blind eye sockets, and said with a humane sneer at the corner of its mouth:

You don't understand anything...

I can understand the discussion. Rove looked directly at the basilisk: I want you to answer some questions for me, understand?

Okay. The basilisk entangled its body and said, As long as we know, we will tell you.

Rove thought for a moment and asked, When were you born?

Many years ago... there was no Hogwarts at that time, and I followed Slytherin. Every time wizards duel, he would take me...

So, the other three of the Big Four know you? Rove asked in astonishment.

Of course. The basilisk made a hoarse voice: Slytherin has a Parseltongue. He used his talents, which was the most normal in that chaotic era.

When was the Chamber of Secrets established? Rove raised his eyebrows.

When Hogwarts was founded, Slytherin built a house under the Black Lake, a room where no one could disturb him to study magic...the Chamber of Secrets.

Do the others know about this room? Rove asked curiously.

I know, but I don't know the exact location. The basilisk snorted, and said, Wizards study magic, and they are very afraid of being disturbed by others. They also have their own secret magic houses, which are not known to outsiders.

But one night, Slytherin suddenly told me that he was leaving Hogwarts and might never come back... Let me wait for his successor in the Chamber of Secrets...

How to determine the successor of Slytherin? Rove asked curiously, Whoever finds the Chamber of Secrets counts?

Of course not, a wizard with Slytherin blood and a Parseltongue, or a wizard holding his wand... The basilisk sneered, It's not like you.

Rove pressed, Slytherin's wand?

Using our horn for the core, and the wood being snakewood, hissed the basilisk. But we've never seen a wizard come to us with that wand in his hand.

Rove made a silent note in his heart, and he continued to ask, Did Slytherin leave any other orders for you? For example, after the heir opens the Chamber of Secrets, let you purify the school and remove Muggle-born students?

No! the basilisk snorted, As long as a few students die, the school will be closed immediately. How could Slytherin give such a stupid order?

Rove narrowed his eyes. Who spread the rumor that the monsters in the Chamber of Secrets cleared Muggles from Hogwarts for a long time?

What is Slytherin's task for you?

Teach the black magic of Slytherin. The basilisk hissed, Teach those incomparably powerful magic to his heirs.

Which wizards have you taught?

Corvinus Gaunt and Tom Riddle, they have both become very powerful wizards. The Basilisk said in a bewitching voice:

Son, Slytherin's magic is beyond your imagination...you will become infinitely stronger...more powerful than any wizard...we can tell you how to live forever...if you make Horcruxes...

Rove was a little vigilant, he stared at the basilisk, and said:

Is this how you tricked Tom Riddle back then? You taught him a lot of black magic when he was only sixteen years old, and you helped him make Horcruxes?

It's not a trick...he was born a bad breed...but he has indeed become stronger, you can't deny that... the basilisk hoarsely said:

Son, don't you want to be strong?

Didn't you say that I am not a descendant of Slytherin? Rove leaned back and said, Why are you so keen on teaching me magic?

The basilisk raised its blinded head and said in a humble tone, We just want to... survive.

But unfortunately, I have my own powerful method. Rove shook his head: I'm not interested in Horcruxes and Slytherin's black magic.

The basilisk was a little disappointed.

It's disappointing!

However... I am very interested in the creation of basilisks. Rove took out an egg, frowned and said:

According to the records, the basilisk was born by placing an egg under the body of a toad to hatch. I tried it before, but it all failed. What's going on?

Since Rove got the Parseltongue, he has been trying to make a basilisk himself. Although this creature has many weaknesses, it is also very powerful.

It's a pity that he didn't succeed once, so he could only find the basilisk for help.

Child, the making of the basilisk is so simple, but we can teach you... The basilisk smiled.

As long as you are willing to learn from it, black magic will gradually corrupt people's hearts and gradually lead to degeneration.

Having the first time, the teenager will soon have a second time, and slowly become obsessed with it.

...

...

The Orient Express stopped suddenly.

In the distance, a group of masked wizards apparated in front of the tracks and stopped the train.

The leading wizard stammered and shouted:

Hit... rob...

...
