Poisoned Eggs at Hogwarts
Chapter 49: Basilisk
For three days, the topic of the secret room was closely discussed in the castle. Some students were very smart. For example, Qiu Zhang of Ravenclaw asked Professor Binns about the history of magic, but even the longest time in the castle Professor Binns' knowledge of the secret room is also very limited, and he has not been able to give any useful answers. He even said that Iger's is not, that the secret room is just a legend, and what Iger said is completely nonsense.
"Hogwarts has not been as vibrant as it is now for many years..." Professor Flitwick was very excited, and immediately announced one thing: "Whoever can find the location of the secret room first, I will add fifty to that house. Minute."
In contrast, Professor McGonagall was much more rational. She disapproved of Iger's actions and felt that it was too dangerous for the students. However, after Iger repeatedly assured that he would blind the basilisk, Professor McGonagall finally agreed with Iger's approach.
On the night that Iger announced the incident, he informed the four deans about it. Dumbledore was happy to see it happen, and also praised Iger's teaching method, which made Snape look ugly. , because Iger's Defense Against the Dark Arts class completely copied his routine, but he himself is still teaching Potions.
Except for the four deans, the other professors are in a state of complete ignorance. Of course, if the students don't ask directly, the four professors don't mind the students asking themselves some questions.
Some students asked Professor Trelawney, hoping she could help with divination, and the result was that Iger wanted them to conquer death...
After learning the news, Iger almost went crazy with laughter.
At the same time, this news was also published in the Daily Prophet, and some older parents wrote letters to their children, saying some of their guesses about the original secret room.
This also made Iger sigh that many people are really powerful. Early on Friday morning, a group of Ravenclaw girls surrounded Professor Flitwick in the auditorium. Iger discovered that in the four colleges, Ravenclaw Lao's girls turned out to be the most! Most of them are beautiful women, no wonder other colleges don't want to offend them...
"The entrance to the secret room is in the girls' bathroom on the second floor. I figured it out! The dead soul that was taken away fifty years ago is the crying Myrtle!" Qiu Zhang looked nervously at the dean in front of him, looking forward to it. asked.
Professor Flitwick looked at Iger. Iger just told them what was in the secret room, but didn't tell them where the secret room was.
Looking at Professor Flitwick's gaze, Iger nodded with a smile: "Yes, the entrance to the secret room is in the girls' bathroom on the second floor, but have you found the faucet?"
"I found it, there is a relief of a small snake on the side!" a girl shouted excitedly.
"Fifty points from Ravenclaw!" Professor Flitwick's shrill voice shouted excitedly, and a scream suddenly sounded from Ravenclaw's long table.
"There are still fifty minutes left, everyone should speed up the progress." Iger happily took a sip of lemon juice from the cup.
As soon as the words fell, Fred and George rushed in from outside the auditorium: "There is a basilisk in the secret room!"
Fred shouted loudly, "Ancient creature, Basilisk!"
George opened a book and read aloud behind Fred: "A seven-year-old rooster lays a magic egg in the sky of Sirius, and a toad hatches it."
"Whoever looks at it will be killed instantly!" Fred shouted.
"So don't touch its eyes, or it will bring death to you!" George looked around and said.
"As for the inaudible whispers..." Fred looked at Iger: "It refers to Parseltongue, Hogwarts legend Slytherin left a monster in the secret room, waiting for Slytherin's heir To slaughter Muggle-born wizards, and the way to control basilisks, is the Parseltongue of Slytherin blood."
"It's a wonderful inference." Iger clapped his hands and looked at the two and laughed: "Gryffindor plus fifty points!"
There was an uproar all around, and no one thought that the Weasley brothers would be the first to discover the identity of the monster in the secret room. After all, whoever guessed it would be more reliable than these two.
"We followed closely behind the group of girls..." Fred spread his hands while looking at the suspicious eyes of the surrounding students.
"Then we went to the library and asked Mrs. Pince what kind of monster's eyes are deadly." George laughed.
"Mrs. Pince told us very easily..." Fred looked complacent. On the opposite long table, the Ravenclaw girls' eyes gradually became unkind, and they seemed to be stalking their own group. People are very dissatisfied.
"You shouldn't be so negligent. If you went to the library to look up materials as soon as you found the secret room, we wouldn't be able to get 50 points so easily!" George was excited, and the twins were excited and right palm.
"Oh my god, we even earned 70 points in one semester. Mom would definitely cry with joy." Fred laughed: "Looks like we earned a lot more than Percy!"
Not far away, Percy frowned and snorted, muttering something in a low voice.
There was a lot of noise in the auditorium at this time, and all the students were discussing the problem of the basilisk.
"Silence!" Dumbledore's voice sounded, and people turned to look. Dumbledore was standing behind the owl desk in front of the teacher's bench, looking at the students below.
"Due to the safety of the students, it is up to the students to participate in the final exam of this crusade against the basilisk. If they do not plan to participate, the senior students can apply for the usual exam format to pass the exam, and the students who participate in the crusade. It also requires the signed consent of the parents.”
As soon as Dumbledore finished speaking, there was a voice of disapproval from below, especially on the long table of Gryffindor, where the protest was the loudest.
"Also, the exam format is not for the students to manage their own affairs. We will attack the basilisks in batches in the square formation of the four academies, and the defense and attack will alternate. The four deans and the Defense Against the Dark Arts will be represented on the field. Professor Iger Morrissus is here to carry out the safety protection of the students and review the exam, and before the exam, we will blind the basilisk's eyes in advance to prevent any unexpected events from the students." Dumbledore ignored the bottom. With a strong protest, Shi Shiran turned around and left.
"What's the difference between this and letting us kill a pig tied to a chopping block?" Fred said angrily.
"Trust me, that thing is much harder to kill than a pig." Iger took a sip from the cup: "A pig will die after a spell, and a basilisk might be no different from itching... "
"As long as it's not a spider!" Ron rolled up his sleeves aggressively, as if he couldn't wait to go up and fight.
"It's nothing to do with you, students under the third grade can't participate. Little Ronnie should just watch your brothers show their power on stage obediently~" George rubbed Ron's head with a smile.
Ron angrily broke away from George's hand: "Don't call me Ronnie!"
As the mystery of the secret room was solved, thousands of owls also flew into thousands of households. Iger was surprised that more than 90% of the parents of the students chose to allow their children to participate in the assessment, even those who were good at protecting themselves. Slytherin…
What made him speechless was that Lucius wrote a letter and sent it to Iger, hoping that Iger would let Draco participate in the assessment.
Iger refused directly without even thinking about it. Don't make trouble, okay? The seniors can't take care of them. I have to help you take care of my son?
Lucius had to settle for the next best thing. Another email was sent to Iger, hoping that Iger would give his son something worth showing off...
Iger couldn't help being a little speechless. He knew too well what Lucius was thinking. He just wanted to let him go out and have a story to promote his son.
Iger grinned at Lucius' letter and waved his pen.
become! According to your!
Lucius' reply was very fast, to be precise, it was expressed very quickly. In less than three days, a brand new Nimbus 2001 appeared on Iger's breakfast table. Iger tore open the envelope and grinned. Lucius wrote in the letter a small gift to Iger while he was sponsoring the Quidditch team at Slytherin House.
Iger couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. Just the weekend before yesterday, Gryffindor and Slytherin had a small-scale conflict. The reason was that in order to let Malfoy join the team, Lucius sponsored Slytherin every time. In 2001, Snape directly wrote a note to occupy the training ground of the Gryffindor team.
Of course, the result was that Hermione happened to be there at the time, and Malfoy's group immediately wilted...
This made Iger feel amused for a while. In the normal history, those Slytherins looked down on Hermione very much, and even Malfoy insulted Hermione Mudblood.
As for now... Iger and Hermione have a very good relationship. Are you touched by such a good relationship, Malfoy?
I dare not move... I dare not move...
Iger handed the new broom to Hermione, and he already had it anyway...
It turned out very quickly, Iger realized how stupid his behavior was...
Just like the men who taught their wives to shop online in previous lives, Iger fell into deep self-doubt as he watched Hermione, who now runs to the Quidditch pitch every day.
Doesn't she like riding a broom?
Emotionally, it's not that I don't like riding, but I don't ride if I don't!
Fortunately, this craze only lasted for two or three days, and then she lent her broom to Angelina, hoping that Angelina would score two more goals...
"I thought you would like to grow on it..."
On Sunday, Iger was lying on the railing of the stadium stand, holding a shivering chocolate frog in his hand.
Hermione's face turned red when Iger said, "I just experienced it, and it turns out it's just like that..."
Saying that, Hermione snorted slightly arrogantly.
"Oh..." Iger was stunned, and then scratched his head: "Speaking of which, we will have the Quidditch World Cup soon after the third year. I think the Bulgarian team has a great win rate..."
"The Irish team is the strongest!" Hermione turned her head to correct Iger's statement.
The two looked at each other, Hermione blushed again...
"emmm...I agree with what you said..." Iger nodded, biting off the head of the chocolate frog in his hand, the stump of the chocolate frog in his hand suddenly kicked his legs, twitched weakly, and then stopped...
"Would you like to participate in the academy's trials?" Iger smiled and looked at Hermione, who was humming.
Hermione pursed her lips and tried her best to keep her little face sullen. In the end, she couldn't help laughing and nodded lightly.
"I think the two of us would be very suitable as batters." Iger laughed.
"You also want to participate in the selection?" Hermione looked at Iger in surprise.
"Of course, I have to protect you..." Iger sipped a little teasingly and laughed.
Hermione smiled with a blushing face, and then gently leaned against Iger.
……
Another Monday, Iger appeared early in the classroom of Defense Against the Dark Arts and looked at the students below.
"The magic spell we need to practice today is very simple: remove your weapon." Iger shook it: "Don't laugh, Mr. Thomas..."
Dean suddenly felt his tongue stick to the roof of his mouth, and then it loosened again.
"This spell is still very powerful simply in terms of effect. It is fast and powerful." Iger smiled: "The most important thing is that it will not let you be imprisoned for accidentally taking other people's lives. Azkaban."
"Even as long as you are focused enough, this spell can even resist Avada's life, and it is very efficient and fast." Iger said, waving his wand, the desks in front of the students suddenly moved aside: "What a pity, Luo Hart's book is expensive, but I won't use it in my class..."
"Since there are no books in my class, we naturally focus more on the practical class." As Iger waved his hand, another dummy walked over, holding a fake wand in his hand: "Come on In the near future, you must focus on the target and have a strong self-confidence, Mr. Longbottom. I hope you can master this spell quickly."
Neville smiled reluctantly, looking not so confident in himself.
"Come one by one, form a line!" Iger clapped his hands, and the students in front of him hurriedly formed a long line.
"Except for your weapon!" Hermione took the brunt of the brunt, and pointed at the wand, and the wand in the dummy's hand flew high.
"Five points for Gryffindor, it's not bad." Iger clapped his hands with a smile.
Behind Hermione ~www.NovelMTL.com~ was lined up neatly in a long row. Harry managed to release the wand directly from the dummy's hand, but Ron only made the wand crooked.
"Although this wand is not broken, I strongly recommend that you change to another wand. The choice of the owner of the wand is not a joke." Iger looked at Ron's wand and shook his head: "I have been paying attention to this wand since the first grade. Now, Charlie's? He doesn't seem to listen to you very much."
"Where did I get the money to buy the wand..." Ron muttered, and stood on the other side with his head sullen.
Iger shook his head. It seems that Ron's Christmas present basically doesn't need to be chosen...
Ron has a strong self-esteem. Harry tried to buy him an owl before, but he refused...
"Except your weapon!" Neville pointed his wand, and the wand in the dummy's hand shook, not as good as Ron's.
"I said I can't..." Neville sighed sadly.
"Find the right way!" Iger walked quickly to him, held Neville's arm and threw it towards the dummy not far away, and the tip of Neville's wand suddenly shot a red light on the dummy. , the wand in the dummy's hand suddenly flew away.
"Hurry up! The posture is cool!" Iger looked at Neville and blinked: "Try again!"
Neville sniffed, feeling agitated in his heart, and suddenly pointed at the dummy: "Except your weapons!"
The weapon in the dummy's hand suddenly flew into Neville's hand with a whirring sound.
There was a burst of applause from behind, and Neville turned his head excitedly, and a group of little lions gathered around him to celebrate.
This is indeed something to celebrate, because this may be the first time Neville has successfully cast a spell in more than a year since he came to Hogwarts...
