Chapter 194： Although I backstab my teammates, I am a simple basilisk!

Heck... Sean, who didn't have time to deal with Gormley, immediately ran towards the corridor, and at the same time, he clenched the phoenix tail in his hand and input magic power into it.

Although this weird basilisk is friendly, in front of Parseltongue, this guy will probably turn into a murderous monster in no time!

Something unexpected happened to Sean, and the Phoenix did not appear!

His eyes widened in disbelief, it didn't make sense!

Phoenix has the ability to teleport, as long as he summons, the other party can arrive in an instant!

The basilisk had completely retracted, and Sean could even hear the screeching sound of its hard scales rubbing against the slate floor.

Dave felt Sean's emotions, and it finally turned back to pitch-black round pupils and turned into scarlet again, and the red mesh-like cracks on the tail flickered with red light.

"Don't open your eyes! Use your instinct to help me alert!" Sean shouted loudly, and then his left hand turned into black particles, and the silent dark power rose wildly!

Sean closed his eyes tightly, holding the wand in his right hand, without any hesitation, facing the only entrance, the life-threatening curse spewed out.

"Killing Curse!"

His killing intent was intense, and the terrifying green light shot out without any pause.

Sean heard the sound of the explosion on the wall when his life-threatening spell hit the wall, but he didn't dare to open his eyes to aim, and another life-threatening spell was fired.

Still didn't hit the target, only the sound of the explosion came, and the basilisk didn't seem to kill Sean for the first time.

What's the situation... This thing knows how to temporarily avoid the edge?

Gormley's frantic laughter rang out: "Hahaha! You filthy mudblood! Just because you're trying to get your hands on Lord Slytherin's treasure?"

"You will die here, and there will be no one to collect your corpse!"

However, something unexpected happened to Sean.

"you!"

After an exclamation, Gormley's piercing laughter came to an abrupt end, and there was no movement in the stone room, and only Dave's hurried, deep breathing was left in Sean's ears.

A series of situations happened in a short period of time, and even Sean had no clue.

At this moment, a low hiss sounded, the voice of the basilisk.

The wand that Sean was holding still hadn't been put down, but he noticed a strange situation. When Gormley's voice disappeared, the high-precision speculum that had been shining and rotating since just now stopped.

Is that basilisk really harmless? Sean opened his mouth in surprise.

His Parseltongue was just a tad proficient, the language magic that would automatically convert snake-like language into words that Sean could understand, like an instant translation device in his head. However, he only understood two words.

"...Snake Whisperer...safe..."

Seeing his unresponsiveness, the basilisk hissed briefly again.

"…go back…"

Immediately afterwards, the sound of scales rubbing against the ground sounded again in the stone room, Dave's movements calmed down, and even the scarlet round pupils turned back to black.

"It said the same thing as before." Dave scratched his bony head with his claws, making a harsh scratching sound.

"What do you mean... ah? It's back in again?"

"That's what it means."

After conveying the idea, Dave even boldly stuck out half of his head, and then told Sean about the situation.

"It went back and the brainless woman turned black."

Hearing this news, Sean opened his eyes. He imitated Dave and stuck out half of his head. Then he was surprised to find that, just as Dave saw, the basilisk turned the first half of the The body dived back into the water.

And just above the ground just now, a dark figure fell down and floated in the air, just like Edmund who was petrified that day.

Gormley was stared at by the basilisk!

Sean looked at the basilisk in disbelief - there are snakes in this world that are not controlled by Parseltongue?

The basilisk had just spun around and collapsed several nearby shelves, but other than that, it didn't do any damage.

Sean even had the absurd feeling that the basilisk was not pulling back so quickly to attack him, but to attack Gormley who spoke Parseltongue.

"Damn it..."

For the first time, Sean felt that the world was so psychedelic.

If he didn't succeed in summoning the phoenix, the basilisk that was supposed to be controlled by Parseltongue into an enemy became a 'sin killer'...

No... Sean remembered before, just ten minutes ago, he learned a few paragraphs of Parseltongue recorded in Ales' diary, and he pronounced the syllables normally, but the Basilisk did not attack him at that time.

why? Because I was stared at by it and didn't die, or because of the super high affinity for magical animals?

Sean looked at the emerald green snake, and a strange feeling rose in his heart.

When faced with magical animals, his intuition is always accurate, and now, his intuition is: this basilisk is very friendly to him.

Sean twitched the corner of his mouth, the basilisk was friendly enough to help others deal with the descendants of Slytherin... Salazar Slytherin will probably be revived in anger when he hears this news...

He stood there and hesitated for a moment, and finally took out Ales' diary. If I don't understand this bizarre thing today, Sean feels that he will not be able to sleep well in the future.

After more than two hours, Sean's Parseltongue proficiency has reached 1500/10000, and he clearly feels that the difficulty of learning has greatly improved, and the proficiency has gradually stagnated from the soaring at the beginning.

"However, although I can't say a few words, it should be no problem to understand a little bit of the basic meaning..." Sean muttered a few words, and then gestured to Dave.

He wanted to hear what the basilisk had to say.

Dave flew over the basilisk and jabbed it with his paw, communicating with animal instinct.

Sean hid in the corridor again.

The basilisk's movements were much slower this time. It retracted itself honestly, and its orange eyes were firmly closed.

"Hiss..."

"Hiss..."

"Hiss..."

This time, Sean finally barely understood the meaning of the basilisk.

"I attacked that Snake Whisperer just now, you are safe now."

"I can probably understand what you're thinking, but I won't attack you."

"I got the master's order after I was born. If there is a Snake Whisperer in the stone room, I can take the initiative to attack."

Sean: "…"

"…"

"What's the matter?"

The Basilisk got the instructions of its owner to attack the Snake Whisperer? !

The IQ of the guy in front of him is obviously extremely high, and he can even understand Sean's concerns.

"You're not a Snake Whisperer, though you'll have a little bit of it - Snake Whisperers don't smell good, not even their masters."

Good smell? Sean touched his cheek, the blood stained on it hadn't been cleaned up, plus he didn't take a bath for a week, Sean felt like a moldy pie now.

Fantastic Beasts affinity? His own three pets often use 'good smell' to describe him. Valley

"Who is your master?" Sean hissed stutteringly.

"I don't know his name, but he raised me. By the way, his voice is very similar to the voice just now."

The voice just now, isn't that the projection of Slytherin?

Slytherin let the basilisk attack the snake whisperer? Sean's head was down for a while.

It's not realistic... Could it be that Slytherin secretly returned to Hogwarts later and he was insane?

In other words, the owner of this basilisk may not be Slytherin, that is someone else's disguise, the purpose is to completely block the secret of this stone room.

Secret... Sean looked at the Pensieve in the compartment.

"Has that hidden room been opened?"

"Yes," replied the basilisk.

"Who?"

"I."

"you?"

"Yes," the basilisk nodded cheerfully, "to hide the three."

Those three bones?

Sean asked, "Why?"

"This is what the master taught me. Hide the body, and later people will relax their vigilance, which is conducive to my sneak attack."

Sean froze in place. He didn't expect that the bones in that compartment were actually moved by the basilisk.

"The owner said that the body cannot be thrown into the lake, because the creatures at the bottom of the lake will inform, so it can only be hidden there."

"In other words, you killed all three of them, and no one else has come in after that?"

"Yes, only these three people came in, and for a long, long time no one came in, until you came in—I'm sorry that day, I've been a snake here and forgot to close my eyes."

Sean stumblingly communicated with the basilisk for a while, only then did he know that after the basilisk hatched naturally, Slytherin, or a person disguised as a Slytherin, would come back here to feed it to grow up, and then feed it. After an order, never came back.

For so many years, the basilisk has stayed in the stone chamber by itself. It doesn't even know that there is another of its own in the castle. This guy usually only goes out to hunt fish in a small area. He sleeps when he is not full. He is really hungry. If you can't sleep, go out to hunt.

In this way, this basilisk has lived alone for so many years, except for the three unlucky bastards, until Sean entered the stone room, it did not meet anyone else.

The place where the Slytherin treasure was hidden became the corpse of the basilisk.

What a magical story...

The basilisk in front of him is already higher than Dave in terms of IQ (in fact, Sean thinks it is stronger than Crabbe and Goyle), but since he has always lived alone, his mind is very simple.

Yes, although it sounds weird, Sean can feel that this basilisk that almost killed him has a very simple mind...

Sean felt that if he wrote a book "Day and Night with the Basilisk", he would definitely explode!

However, the current news has made Sean confirm another thing, that is, the Pensieve is actually not dangerous.

According to the Basilisk, the box was never opened except when it came out of its own accord.

And when Sean asked if he could take the treasure, the basilisk said you were happy.

The only order it got was to attack the Snake Whisperer and guard the treasure? It doesn't exist - the master didn't say it anyway.

This piqued Sean's curiosity, and he took out the high-precision speculum.

The first is Gormley, who is close to the petrified, the ghost of this cruel witch still maintains an expression of incredible horror.

Sean brought the sight glass close to Gormley, and then the sight glass slowly spun.

Even though she has been petrified, Gormley has not been wiped out, and she still harbors ill will towards me in her frozen thoughts...

Sean nodded thoughtfully, and brought the looking glass closer to Dave, without any movement.

It makes perfect sense, Dave and I figured it out, and it doesn't pose any threat to me...

Sean brought the sight glass closer to the basilisk again, and the sight glass slowly spun again.

It is understandable that although the basilisk has no malicious intentions towards me, it has a special ability, and it will hurt me if I am not careful. But since that's not what it's meant to be, the looking glass just rotates slowly.

You know, when Gormley just woke up, the looking glass was shining and spinning like crazy.

It seems that the rotation of the looking glass represents the maliciousness of a person or thing to him.

Sean held the speculum close to the Pensieve, without turning.

It doesn't seem to be in any danger... Sean, who was worried, took out another thing.

Unstable Coins (Purple): Divination props, throw a coin after saying specific things, the heads represent affirmation, and the tails represent negation. The remaining number of uses is 5/5 (Note: The positive and negative of the coin will be affected by the weather, mood, and luck, and often appear upright. Moderate divination is good for the body and mind, and superstition is harmful to health)

This thing was obtained in the last lottery, and Sean never used it because of the unstable effect. Moreover, before that, because of the three bones, he instinctively thought that there was something wrong with the Pensieve, so he didn't want to use unstable coins.

However, now you can try it.

Sean held the coin, UU reading meditated in his heart: Entering the Pensieve in the hidden compartment in the Slytherin chamber would endanger my life.

Then he tossed the coin and let it fall naturally.

The coin made a crisp sound on the ground, and after swaying back and forth for a while, it slowly stopped.

Opposite!

That also means that entering the Pensieve is not life-threatening.

Worth trying...

Sean took a deep breath and stood in front of the Pensieve, then buried his head in it.

After a period of weightlessness in the dark, Sean stepped on the dark stone road.

In front of you is a huge stone room, and at the very center of the platform, where is a huge statue standing.

Here is the secret room...

Then, Sean saw the figure ahead, it was Salazar Slytherin.

"Remember my gestures and spells."

After Slytherin said such a sentence, he directly started the demonstration of the spell.

However, Sean found a serious problem, and Slytherin was well-intentioned, and he wanted to leave more knowledge behind. But—all he demonstrated were ancient spells!

Shawn, who is as talented as a ghost like Niven, didn't learn much at all except for a moment of dizziness.

A dozen ancient spells with only one proficiency appeared on his panel...

What a big loss... Sean wants to cry but has no tears, you might as well teach me some black magic...

After demonstrating the spell, Slytherin put his hands behind his back and looked at his statue.

"This is the last gift - Hogwarts Secret."

His voice was full of seriousness, and Sean's eyes lit up and he straightened up unconsciously.

"The castle relies on magic, and it is a powerful magic tool in itself! And I will tell you how to attract the authority of Hogwarts Castle."
