Hogwarts Mystery Sequence

Hermione's eyes widened when she heard Amon's words.

In the reflection of those brown eyes, the arc of the corner of Amon's mouth gradually widened, adding the last straw to the little witch.

"Of course I have the evidence, so do you want to see it, Miss Granger?"

"!"

Hermione didn't expect that Amon could actually produce evidence, but she still firmly believed that the great wizard she admired would be a shameful liar!

She shook her head hard, looked into Amon's eyes, and said decisively:

"I read!"

Next to them, Harry and Ron looked at each other.

They didn't expect that Amon would expose such an exciting "big melon" right away.

At this moment, Harry and Ron transformed into "猹" and moved forward full of curiosity.

Hermione pushed aside two friends who were not too concerned about the fun and came to the front.

At this time, Amon had already taken out a basin-shaped object from the pocket of his magic robe and placed it on the desk.

He took a step back to make way, and at the same time took out a glass bottle, shook it in his hand, and smiled at Hermione:

"This is a pensieve. Miss Granger must know how to use it."

Hermione grabbed the bottle from Amon's hand, pulled out the stopper, poured the translucent liquid inside into the pensieve, and then plunged it into the pensieve.

Harry and Ron stared dumbfounded at Hermione's series of extremely smooth operations. They felt that Hermione was inexplicably difficult to deal with now, so they subconsciously shrank their shoulders and stood quietly behind.

After a while, Hermione suddenly raised her head, with a look of disbelief on her face.

After regaining her composure, she glared at Amon stubbornly, then turned around and left the empty classroom that made her sad without looking back.

Amon adjusted his monocle, smiled and looked at Harry and Ron who were standing there at a loss, and said:

"Miss Granger doesn't seem to be in a good mood right now. Maybe it's the time when she needs the comfort of her friends the most. Why don't you catch up and be a 'punching bag'?"

Ron scratched the back of his head, looked at Harry, turned around and quickly chased out in tacit agreement, regardless of the purpose of looking for Amon in the first place.

Amon crossed his arms, raised his right hand to adjust the position of the monocle on his right eye, and smiled silently.

……

Hogwarts has once again returned to its former peace, or Hogwarts has always been peaceful on the surface.

The little wizards have nothing to worry about here except how to deal with professors and coursework - it's like a castle in a fairy tale.

However, in reality, no matter how beautiful a fairy tale is, it is inevitably stained with black.

Legend has it that after Hogwarts was built, Salazar Slytherin left the school because of differences with the other Big Three over the blood requirements for admitted students;

But before he left the school, he built a secret room, waiting for his heir to open the secret room and release the horrible things inside, so that it could purify the school and eliminate all people who were not worthy of learning magic.

——This is the so-called secret room legend.

What is the true situation in history, and what Salazar Slytherin himself thought, Amon has no idea.

But the Chamber of Secrets does exist, and it was indeed built by Salazar Slytherin himself, and he also kept a basilisk in it.

……

In the dark and damp underground pipes, Amon looked at the skeletons of small vertebrates everywhere, walking leisurely as if they were nothing.

A week has passed since he was promoted to "Magical Professor".

During this time, the trio didn't know if it was because Hermione had a mental breakdown and didn't bother him anymore, and the house elf he wanted to catch was nowhere to be seen.

Then, he remembered the existence of this secret room - although he could not open the "Parseltongue" of the secret room, he had the memory of Voldemort, and it was still very simple to imitate it.

In the silent darkness, there was only the sound of dripping water and the cracking sound of the bones Amon stepped on.

Suddenly, he stopped.

He raised his head, raised his hand to adjust his shimmering monocle, looked at the huge thing in front of him, and sighed with a "tsk" sound.

What I saw standing in front of Amon was a huge snake slough, with a thick trunk like an oak trunk that was dozens of feet long!

It can be seen from this that the original owner of the snake slough, the basilisk that has lived for thousands of years, is what a terrifying monster!

And it is exactly the goal of Amon's trip!

Amon continued to walk forward, passing through the "belly" of the snake's slough, and after twists and turns, he came to a solid wall.

Two intertwined snakes are carved on the wall. The snakes' eyes are inlaid with sparkling emeralds, as if they are looking at the visitors vividly.

"hiss~"

Amon made a low sound like a snake.

The wall suddenly cracked in the middle, and the two snakes separated accordingly. The two half-walls smoothed to both sides, revealing the stone chamber inside.

Entering the stone chamber, Amon's eyes followed the corridor guarded by stone pillars carved with reliefs of giant snakes, and looked at the tall statue of Salazar Slytherin facing him on the wall of the wide platform at the end.

He adjusted the monocle on his right eye and walked easily to the statue under the gaze of the empty eye sockets of the stone snakes on both sides.

Amon narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his head to try to see the face of the statue clearly.

To be honest, Salazar Slytherin didn't look very good. He looked like a baboon with a sparse beard.

"No wonder he is always the evil villain among the Big Four in legends. It's probably because he looks so out of place."

Amon chuckled and teased.

But he knew why Salazar Slytherin became like this.

The root cause of Voldemort's eventual transformation into a "Snake-faced Monster" is also the same.

——Magical transformation.

Corresponds to the sixth-level transformation technique envisioned by Amon.

In fact, the sixth-level transformation technique covers a wide range of areas. For example, "Despicable Haierbo" cultivating a basilisk can be regarded as a disguised form of magical transformation.

Instead of creating new magical creatures, both Salazar Slytherin and Voldemort chose to transform themselves.

This road is much more difficult to walk than the former. Even Salazar Slytherin and Voldemort, who inherited Slytherin's legacy, did not realize it perfectly——

The method they finally developed was to use the blood of magical animals and special parts of the body with magical power to perform rituals to transform the body in order to obtain powerful magical power.

But the flaws are also obvious - they themselves are too deeply affected by magical animals, and even gradually lose their human characteristics.

Therefore, although Amon has mastered this transformation method, he is not ready to practice it.

Of course, more importantly, he already has a better choice.

……

Amon adjusted his monocle and hissed again.

At the same time, the Slytherin statue responded to the voice, its mouth opening wider and wider, revealing a huge black hole.

There seemed to be something crawling in the cave, and a rustling sound came out——

The basilisk stretched out its curled emerald green snake body in the mouth of the statue, and roared out an explosive sound from its bloody mouth with two slender fangs like sharp swords, venting its savagery and madness wantonly.

Its huge bright yellow eyes looked down into the stone chamber, wanting to see which delicious snack had freed it.

In return it will send the wizard into its belly to have a good look around.

After all, the basilisk is very interested in its owner's body structure and often observes it from a distance.

However, it hoped that the wizard who released it didn't know his own language, otherwise it would always be inexplicably unable to control its body.

It's a pity that the basilisk's brain inherited from the rooster cannot figure it out. The wizards who can release it naturally have mastered "Parseltongue"...

The basilisk's piercing glances yielded nothing.

Amon had already "hidden" his figure when he released the basilisk.

He watched the basilisk slowly descending from the statue. The huge and heavy snake head kept spitting out messages and looked around in the stone chamber.

When the basilisk just opened its mouth to roar, Amon suddenly adjusted his monocle. The basilisk's body suddenly stiffened and its pupils blurred.

Then, a dazzling green light struck the basilisk instantly, pointing directly at the basilisk's open mouth.

Without any resistance, the basilisk's huge body suddenly fell down, stirring up dust all over the ground.

The yellow snake eyes were no longer bright and lost all vitality.

Amon's monocle shone slightly, and he released his "hidden" state and reappeared in the stone chamber.

He looked at the giant basilisk that was killed silently, with an obvious smile on his face.

The key ability of the "Magical Professor" is to turn the learned spells into "skills" that can be sent and received at will.

Not only did this allow him to master every spell to a perfect level;

It also made his "matching moves" flawless.

If at the beginning, when he first created the Secret Spell, a wizard as powerful as Dumbledore might still be aware of the Secret Realm;

Or discover his traces when he uses the wrong spell to influence the outside world.

Then this problem no longer exists——

Even the basilisk with full magic resistance and beast intuition hated it without realizing it!

……

Amon stepped forward, took out a bunch of tools from his pocket, and began to dismember the basilisk.

The basilisk is full of treasures - eyes that contain a fatal curse, snake skin with excellent magic resistance, fangs that contain venom...

The blood of the basilisk can also be used as a material for potions, and the bones of the basilisk can also be used to make alchemical items.

Moreover, the basilisk in front of me has been transformed by Salazar Slytherin, so its value is naturally even greater.

However, Amon is not planning to move these materials to the Room of Requirement. He is even planning to move out the items in the Room of Requirement and place them in this secret room.

As for the suitable place, there is a ready-made——

In the mouth of the Salazar Slytherin statue, where the Basilisk hides, is a secret testing ground and research laboratory built by Slytherin.

Amon had already read the information in it through Voldemort's memory, and it was all about studying the bloodline of magical animals and magical transformation.

These materials are indeed valuable, but the research laboratory itself cannot be wasted. He plans to use it as a new secret base.

Amon also planned to choose the location where the door key would be marked - he used the Thestral's tail hair to make a new pointed hat, and at the same time transformed it into a door key.

Therefore, he may be quite busy these days.
