Hogwarts: I inherited my legacy

Things developed too smoothly, beyond everyone's expectations.

Except for the more than twenty elite wizards who have set up defenses at various important locations,

The remaining attack teams, composed of more than fifty combat forces, lined up and entered the pipeline one after another after conducting necessary investigations.

Dumbledore took the lead, and more than fifty people were divided into several teams to follow. After Dumbledore opened the last locked door in Parseltongue,

Finally arrived at the final secret room,

Arriving at the statue of Salazar Slytherin.

A giant snake with a diameter of about 4 feet and a body length of more than 50 feet is entangled under the statue.

"Be careful! It's a basilisk!"

The Auror on guard shouted,

The Ministry of Magic employees of the Dangerous Animals Committee determined the lifespan of this giant snake. It lived for 900-1000 years!

In other words, it has been living here almost since the founding of Hogwarts!

Since the founding of Hogwarts, almost all young wizards have had interactions with this giant snake without knowing it!

Before this giant snake attacks,

All the wizards present applied a layer of iron armor spell on themselves based on their experience.

Or you can ask a close friend to use it on you.

Although everyone deliberately controlled their volume, those who were more proficient in the Iron Armor Curse also chose to cast the spell silently.

But if more than forty people recite magic spells together in an underground secret room, it's impossible for there to be no movement at all.

The humming sound echoed throughout the secret room space,

This made Raven, who was peering into the situation here through his accessory brain, seem to be dreaming back to his morning reading class.

Raven couldn't help but shook her head,

And this is also reflected on the body of the basilisk,

The snake catching team was so horrified that the basilisk raised its head and shook it.

"It's awake!!! Be alert!!! Don't look directly into its eyes!!!"

shouted the Auror squad leader who was responsible for on-the-spot command.

However, to everyone's expectation, the basilisk did not attack.

Instead, he stuck out his tongue and made a series of shasha sounds.

The translation is probably like this,

"Hey, Dumbledore, it's me, Raven. The basilisk is under my control. Please tell them not to rush."

Dumbledore's eyebrows, which had all turned white, raised.

First, he raised his right hand to stop the wizards who were ready to attack at any time.

Then he said,

"Wait a minute, this basilisk can communicate. Let me communicate with it."

Everyone looked at each other. Although they did not put down their wands, anyone with a discerning eye could see that their desire to attack was much less.

The voice of the giant snake Shassha came, seeming to agree with Dumbledore's words,

Actually...

"Old guy, you just used 'it' to describe me, right!?"

Dumbledore and Hashard responded,

"How about I use her? You know, this is actually a female basilisk."

"Hmph, it will be recorded in your account anyway.

Later you will say that you have convinced this basilisk to give up resistance.

This is Salazar Slytherin's pet. Lucius and Sirius will fight for the disposal of this basilisk on behalf of the school board. They will send it to Ilvermorny through formal channels. "

"Shall we just send it directly? Actually, I quite want the materials from this basilisk."

"This basilisk has been sleeping for a while. I estimate it can live for a hundred years. Few of the people here can survive it. If you are confident, you can stay."

"Excuse me, but will the Ministry of Magic be so easy to talk to? Will they go back empty-handed?"

"Who said this is a family property passed down from ancestors? These people are all graduates of Hogwarts. No one wants to bear the infamy of robbing Salazar Slytherin's inheritance. When the time comes, they will shed some snakes. Just mean it.”

"What about the snake slough?"

"Isn't the snake sloughing outside? You saw it just now."

"Come on, those are old men from a hundred years ago. It's great to be 45 feet tall. It's okay to deceive them into being young."

"Tsk, you don't want to be a wolf with nothing, do you?"

"No matter what you do with the snake slough, Hogwarts will get 30% of the remaining materials."

"Okay, that's it. I'm going to eat, and my body will continue to be taken over by the basilisk."

Under the watchful eyes of many elite wizards, a dirty deal was concluded.

This is all a result of not knowing foreign languages! On the importance of having your own translator.

The great first white wizard and chief mage of the Wizengamot, Dumbledore, cracked Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets on February 1993, 2, and calmed down a thousand-year-old basilisk with Parseltongue.

Events like this are enough to appear in the history books.

The quill pen of the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet is automatically converting his thoughts into words and recording them on parchment, in order to record this major event as soon as possible.

Photographers and reporters took various celebrities from the magical world who participated in today's operation to interview and take photos in front of the basilisk.

Of course, our basilisk old lady also cooperated and closed her death eye.

In addition to Snape still staying underground, helping the wizards who came to support the point to deal with the loot,

After confirming safety, the other professors have returned to the auditorium.

Listening to what other professors said, Gilderoy Lockhart felt itchy and hated why he was not one of the people involved in the action.

This will definitely be a legendary experience and will definitely gain him greater fame.

But it doesn't matter, Gilderoy Lockhart has another show lined up,

Those who came today are all important figures in the wizarding world. It can even be said that they have gathered nearly half of the attention of the wizarding world.

As long as he can complete his planned plan here, his reputation will spread wider.

After working for several hours until three or four in the afternoon, Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic finally cleared the entire secret room.

It's a pity that the harvest was not great. This secret room has been opened by someone, and the most valuable documents have been taken away long ago. It can be seen from the dust accumulated on the bookshelf.

But harvesting a few snake sloughs was enough for them to make a trip.

Anyway, they didn't contribute much today. They just returned to Hogwarts and went on an adventure with the principal. They were already very satisfied.

As the principal, Dumbledore must of course entertain all visitors well.

Evening, auditorium,

The stools around the four long tables were removed by house elves.

And the old table was also covered with a layer of white tablecloth.

Tonight's banquet will be held in the form of a buffet in the auditorium.

I returned to Hogwarts after a long absence, and even ate Hogwarts’ unique Dixie pie.

Wizards such as Rufus Scrimgeour, who had graduated many years ago, couldn't help but sigh.

Although he is now considered a big shot in the magic world,

Even the favorite candidate for Minister of Magic,

But he had never tasted these delicacies produced in the Hogwarts kitchen outside.

Even if I have tasted similar flavors, they are just poor imitations made by fellow Hogwarts graduates, not as good as the original flavors from the Hogwarts kitchen.

He once wrote to Dumbledore to ask, but after Dumbledore consulted the kitchen, he learned that this was a secret recipe passed down by a mysterious senior in the Hogwarts kitchen.

To this end, he even signed an unbreakable oath with the house elves, not allowing the kitchen to pass on the secret recipe to anyone outside of Hogwarts.
