Chapter 133 Basilisk!
John and the other Slytherins were actually quite measured in their actions.
In the previous battle, they did not use any purely destructive spells such as [Split to pieces] and [Shattered to pieces], so the injuries of the Gryffindors were not serious. Michelle and others only spent 10 minutes Soon the curse will be lifted from the Gryffindors.
In the process, Percy also told everyone what had just happened in an embellished way.
Michelle's eyes lit up and she sighed sincerely:
"As expected of John! So awesome!"
"Hey, hey, hey! Where are you on?"
Percy said loudly, blushing.
"Are you qualified to criticize me? You can't even guard your home well, but you are still the prefect of Gryffindor!"
Michelle curled her lips and said, "And I think what John said is very reasonable. If such a big thing happened, even Hogwarts would be temporarily closed, he would definitely want to find out from Harry. "
Hermione continued:
"I've always felt that Harry has been acting strange recently. Ever since Harry received the package two days ago, he has become very different. Ron, what do you think?"
"Although I don't want to admit it, it's true." Ron spread his hands and said, "He doesn't even snore when he sleeps now. It's really scary!"
"Snapped--"
Michelle snapped her fingers, stood up and said, "Then let's go to the Forbidden Forest! If Harry is really the heir, then we should arrest him."
As soon as this was said, the Weasley twins immediately agreed.
Hermione and Ron agreed.
Even many unconvinced Gryffindors followed Michelle and walked towards the Forbidden Forest.
Percy was almost despairing at this point.
He covered his head and howled miserably:
"Please! We should find a way to inform Professor McGonagall about this! Then let the professors punish Slytherin!"
Michelle and others ignored him at all.
It's not Gryffindor's style to sue the teacher at every turn.
……
John has led a group of Slytherins into the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest.
It was not difficult to find Harry, because he had left a mark in the Forbidden Forest to guide John forward - snake tracks in the snow.
Seeing that the traces ahead were getting denser and denser, John suddenly stopped and shouted:
"I would like to reiterate again that the basilisk is an extremely dangerous black magic creature. Their most terrifying attack method is the 'lethal sight'. Any creature that looks directly at it will die on the spot.
So if you encounter a basilisk later.
You all must be on guard and try not to open your eyes and look at each other.
Even if you have to open it, you still need to lower your head first and look through the reflective object.
In this way, even if you really look at the basilisk, you will only be petrified.
Do you understand? "
At this time, the Slytherins had already restrained their previous unruliness in Gryffindor Tower. They all nodded solemnly, then took off the Slytherin emblem pinned to their chests and held it in their hands.
This thing is made of silver, and part of it is a mirror, so it can be used as a reflective object.
Seeing this, John nodded with satisfaction and began to move on with Slytherin.
However, they followed the traces and circled the Forbidden Forest several times. They did not find the Basilisk and Harry Potter, but they bumped into Michelle and other Gryffindors.
"John! Why don't you come to me for help with such a big thing!"
As soon as they met, Michelle threw herself on John's back and complained.
John put Michelle down gently with some disgust and said:
"Obviously, with your status, it is not convenient for you to get involved in this matter."
As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the Gryffindor team.
Only then did Michelle realize that in less than a minute, Slytherin and Gryffindor had drawn out their wands again and started to confront each other.
Hermione and Ron were so anxious that they were stuck in the middle of the two groups trying to persuade each other.
It's a pity that both sides treat them as if they don't exist.
This scene made Michelle scratch her head.
And John noticed that large tracts of snow on the trees not far away were being shaken off. This movement seemed like something huge was approaching here!
"Attention everyone! Prepare to engage the enemy at seven o'clock!"
Following John's order, the Slytherins all turned around.
In their field of vision, a giant snake emerged from the burrow of an Acromantula.
All Slytherins bowed their heads in accordance with John's previous instructions.
Immediately afterwards, as John took the lead in shooting a [Shattered Bones], all the Slytherins also raised their wands.
"Boom boom boom..."
Hundreds of magic spells of various colors soared into the sky, drawing arcs in the air and hitting the huge body of the basilisk like a rain curtain.
A series of violent explosions scattered the surrounding snow, and a huge wail erupted from the basilisk's mouth.
Even a basilisk with strong anti-magic skin cannot avoid being injured when faced with attacks from hundreds of wizards.
Under the concentrated fire of the Slytherins, a large number of the anti-magic scales on the basilisk directly shattered.
"Gryffindors! Let's come too!"
Michelle was so excited.
She yelled and raised her wand too.
The Gryffindor next to him was completely confused.
In the eyes of many of them, they actually came to settle scores with the Slytherins this time and seek revenge.
Why are you now inexplicably fighting side by side with these 'enemies'?
Although they felt disgusted, looking at the huge basilisk in the distance, Ron, Hermione and many other Gryffindors also followed the example of the Slytherins, lowered their heads and began to attack.
And with the firepower assistance of the Gryffindors, the Basilisk was even more unable to bear it.
The huge body it was once proud of has now become a burden to it. No matter how hard it tries, the almost continuous magic barrage shot from the wizard square on the opposite side can always shatter the surrounding trees and fall to the ground. He beat it everywhere on its body, leaving it covered with bruises.
But this also inspired its ferocity.
"hiss--"
The basilisk screamed and curled up its body, tensed its muscles, and was ready to withstand the attack and rush into the crowd to kill!
At this time, John suddenly grinned, took out several rooster-shaped iron horns from the deformed lizard skin wallet he carried with him, and threw them around the team.
These trumpets, which were made by Professor McGonagall himself using the transfiguration technique, erupted into a huge rooster crow the moment they landed.
The rolling sound spread through the ranks of Slytherin and Gryffindor.
This sudden BGM, coupled with the dance-like movements of the little wizards when casting spells, makes the picture suddenly become extremely magical.
Seeing this, John couldn't help but sigh:
"chicken***!"
The moment the basilisk in the distance heard the rooster's crow, it was so frightened that it canceled its charging posture and began to whine and retreat.
Its Achilles' heel is the rooster's crow.
Although the cry could not kill it directly because it was too far away, it still had a huge impact on it.
What's worse is that those cries protected all the wizards, making it impossible for them to get close!
However, a basilisk that has lived for a thousand years is not so easy to deal with!
A hint of humanity flashed through the depths of the basilisk's eyes.
With the rooster's crow, it seemed to have given up resistance and coiled its body into a snake cake.
Seeing this, the Slytherins and Gryffindors on the other side were overjoyed and stepped up their attacks.
But just when they relaxed their vigilance, the basilisk suddenly poked its head out and glared at the wizards with its golden snake eyes.
"Kakaka-"
Creepy sounds began to spread among the crowd.
With just one glare, nearly twenty Slytherins and Gryffindors were petrified.
