Science students at Hogwarts

Chapter 23 Slytherin Chamber of Secrets

"I know a lot about bombs and explosions. To be honest, I started learning irrational chemistry before I arrived at Hogwarts. I have successfully done simple explosions like this hundreds of times..."

Elios looked at Lockhart, who was chatting with Professor Flitwick, and rolled his eyes silently.

Lockhart may be related to King Dong, and he doubts that Lockhart's next sentence was "No one knows chemistry better than me."

Do you know anything about bombs?Let’s read the physical chemistry correctly first and then talk about it.

Elios glanced at Professor Flitwick sympathetically. He obviously didn't believe what the student said, but he had to agree with him.

When poor Professor Flitwick discussed the Oblivion Curse paper with Lockhart last month, he was still happily praising the student for finally using his talent in a positive way...

Professor Snape, who was adjusting the proportion of explosives on the side, had a gloomy face. It was obvious that he was not satisfied with Elios's reckless plan.

Although this kind of explosion technology is quite mature in Muggle society, he himself also "consulted" several explosion experts and confirmed that this plan is very safe.

But he still couldn't figure out why Dumbledore would agree to such a barbaric plan.

Of course, there were things that didn't satisfy him even more.He turned to look to the other side and let out a cold snort.

Elios followed his gaze and glanced at Harry.

Harry was currently holding a handful of Nimbus 2000, his face flushed. He stood next to Higgs, Cho Chang and Krum, looking extremely thin.

Harry did not become Gryffindor's Seeker like in the original book, but his talent in flying still attracted the attention of Mrs. Hooch.

She often asked Harry to give demonstrations in flying lessons and declared that he would definitely join the school team next year.

Elios told her that the plan to kill the basilisk required several people with excellent flying skills to serve as bait, and she recommended Harry without hesitation.

Harry noticed Elios's gaze and he wanted to come over.

To ensure safety, there were only a few people in the women's restroom on the second floor. Others were waiting for news in the auditorium.

None of Harry's close friends were here, and he wasn't very familiar with several of the Seekers. He really wanted to talk to Elios and Draco to relieve the tension.

But when Harry saw Snape next to them, he gave up the idea.

Professor Snape felt even more unhappy after seeing the fear in those familiar green eyes because of him.

His movements were a little heavier, and the sound caught Dumbledore's attention.

The white wizard looked at the situation in the bathroom and understood.He shook his head slightly and chuckled.

Draco was obviously nervous, the muscles on his face were tense and his hands were clenched into fists unconsciously.

Elios could certainly understand him, after all, this was Draco's first time being responsible for making plans.

Because the Malfoy and Black families have been too close to marrow wizards over the years, many extremists have secretly cursed them.

It's a pity that they have no backbone.

They did not dare to confront the prosperous Lucius, and even greeted him warmly when they met, and humbly begged him for help.

This situation became more and more obvious after Elios and the others got closer and closer to some neutral pure-blood families.

However, these pure-blood families have also taken some sanctions in order to maintain their own face.

These sanctions are not painful to anyone. They are similar to the U.S. Secretariat's announcement of a Twitter withdrawal from Vladimir.

After the Hogwarts attack, most people ignored the attack due to purebloods' disdain for the Society of Truth.

They firmly believed that since the attacker had the title of "heir", he would definitely not attack pure bloods, and they even watched the fun with gloating.

The Crabbes were very concerned about this matter out of hatred.

After reading the history of Hogwarts, they discovered that the attacker 50 years ago was the eight-eyed spider Hagrid had raised.

Old Crabbe thought about it with his not-so-smart mind, and firmly believed that this must be Lucius's conspiracy!

Lucius hoped that the mudblood wizards would join them, so he teamed up with Hagrid and asked Hermione to pretend to be attacked, and finally pretended to catch the murderer, so that the mudbloods would trust them!

So Crabbe publicized this view and convinced those purebloods who were already dismissive of it to believe this conclusion.

Elios was stunned after hearing Goyle's report. He really felt that it was a pity that the Crabbe family worked on potions. They should go to Hollywood to become screenwriters.

Nott is one of the few sober people, and he firmly believes that there must be a greater conspiracy.

To this end, he consulted a lot of information in the library. Unfortunately, Hermione was not awake yet, so all his efforts were in vain.

Fortunately, Huangtian paid off. After a long period of tracking, he finally discovered what the Truth Society was searching for on a large scale in one day.

Theodore knew that Hufflepuff students could not borrow books from the library, and was about to borrow the book that Justin was reading, but he couldn't find it.

He bitterly thought that he was late because other members of the Truth Society must have borrowed books for the Hufflepuff student.

It's such a shame that Theodore was so close to the truth. If he had checked with Mrs. Pince, he would have known that Justin had stolen it, and at least he would have been able to ask to join the plan.

Rather than being told later that they had to participate in the operation, they didn't realize the significance of sniping the basilisk until then.

Then it would be too late to pray for Dumbledore to take up important positions.

It was under this pressure that Draco took over the blasting plan.

Elios noticed his efforts.

With the assistance of John, Draco contacted several explosive engineering laboratories such as the Defense Chemistry Center of Cranfield University in the United Kingdom.

He carefully provided a small piece of material similar to Hogwarts Castle, which was covertly engraved with defensive magic.

After receiving the explosion feasibility report, he built a house in the suburbs with the same structure as the bathroom on the second floor. It was also engraved with defensive magic, and even considered the Hogwarts circulating magic system.

In the end, they tampered with the memories of the experimenters, paid several laboratories a large sum of money, and returned to Hogwarts with the experimental data.

After returning to Hogwarts, they first made a lot of calculations with Professor Snape and Professor Flitwick, and finally decided on a detailed explosion plan.

Although he had made sufficient preparations, Draco was still nervous. Seeing him like this, Elios took the initiative to chat about some interesting things.

"Are the rumors true?" Draco actually remembered something and asked Elios for confirmation, "Is there really a Slytherin Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts, where his treasures are piled up?"

Elios shrugged, "Who knows? But if you think about the potion training tables everywhere in the Slytherin dormitory, I guess Slytherin's treasures are probably potions again."

Draco didn't look good.

Whether he was supplementing chemistry in order to make plans some time ago, or he has been helping Professor Snape and participating in many potion preparations.

He was a little conflicted. Let's rest for a while. He really didn't want to see potions and chemistry anymore.

The two were still chatting, but the blasting over there was over.

Elios went up to take a look, and used just the right amount to blast the passage leading to the secret room perfectly.

"Sure enough, considering the magic cycle and overall defensive magic of Hogwarts, I deliberately increased the amount of explosives." Draco was very happy.

Dumbledore was already motioning to one side calmly.

Elios understood that he asked Fox to go secretly to explore the way. The white wizard would not let students be killed or injured under his eyes.

According to the plan, the four warriors should go down and serve as bait.

Elios made a cheering gesture towards them, and they nodded in response. Their expressions were a mixture of anticipation, fear and perseverance.

But before a few people could get down, Fox flew up.

Elios was a little dumbfounded. Logically speaking, Fox shouldn't appear in public.

It flew in front of Dumbledore and let out several crisp calls.

Elios looked at Dumbledore's expression getting more and more strange, and he was a little anxious. He urged the white wizard to explain the situation quickly with his eyes.

After a long time, Dumbledore said, "Fox searched all over the secret room, but there was only one snake slough under it, and the basilisk was gone."

Everyone entered the secret passage to confirm the situation, with Elios and Draco following at the end.

As soon as they entered the secret room, they saw a huge snake slough.

Harry and Qiu Zhang had obviously never seen such a scene, and because they were too young, they were frightened and took a few steps back.

Elios and Draco were knocked down by them as soon as they came in and before they could stand still.

The brothers didn't fall to the ground, they fell into a huge black hole.

At the moment of falling, Elios had only one thought.

"Draco, my good brother! You must have used too much explosives, and now you are cheating us two!"
