Hogwarts: I really didn’t want to be the Dark Lord
Chapter 208
“Tom, what’s wrong? This should be a very common ability. I bet all the little wizards here can do it, so I didn’t mention it to you.”
“No! Solstice! You don’t understand! Parseltongue is a very great talent! Only the descendants of the great Slytherins can master it! No one else can communicate with snakes!”
“But…how could I be a descendant of Slytherin?……”
“I don’t know about this………”Tom was also confused. He didn’t understand what was going on.
Why did Xia Zhi speak Parseltongue?
“Can you tell me where this…snake came from?”
“”Well…I encountered it yesterday when I went to the Forbidden Forest to help you catch rabbits. I can talk to snakes, so I started chatting with it. Then it followed me. Is there something wrong with it?”
How strange, this is clearly a newly born snake monster! But why don’t its eyes have that kind of lethal power? Tom was puzzled.
The information Tom received today was too abrupt. He didn’t expect Xia Zhi to have such a talent, and he also picked up a little snake monster!
“I think you’d better not let other people see this little snake, especially Dumbledore.……”Tom warned Xia Zhi.
If you raise a basilisk in Hogwarts and it is discovered, you will be in trouble if you don’t die.
In the end, Tom didn’t bother too much. Xia Zhi thought that everyone had Parseltongue, so he didn’t mention this talent to him. This reason was reasonable.
As for the little basilisk, this kind of snake animal is naturally close to wizards with the gift of Parseltongue. It is normal for it to meet Xia Zhi and follow him.
The only thing that is difficult to understand is why the magic on the little basilisk’s eyes is ineffective.
And the basilisk cannot be born by itself, so who is the person who hatched the basilisk?
“OK, Tom, if you say so, then I won’t let Xiao Hong be seen by others, and I will also hide the fact that I can speak Parseltongue. Xia Zhi wrote seriously.
“Very good! The secular people are prejudiced against the Parseltongue talent, and few people can understand our nobility.”
“We? You mean?……”
“Yes, Xiazhi, I won’t hide it, I can speak Parseltongue, and I’m a descendant of Slytherin!”
“oh……”Xia Zhi showed a shocked expression at the right time
“If your magic talent was better, you would definitely be able to enter Slytherin!” Tom was indignant for Xia Zhi.
Xia Zhi wrote sadly,”There is no way, with my talent……”
“There will be a way to solve it. When I modify the formula, your magic power will increase significantly. And you are only in the second grade now. Even if you do nothing, your magic power will naturally increase when you are older!” Tom consoled her seriously.
“Well, thank you, Tom.”
“But since you have the talent of Parseltongue, I can take you there in advance. There is a lot of precious magical knowledge in that place.”
“What exactly is that place?”
“That is the Chamber of Secrets built by my ancestor, one of the four founders of Hogwarts, the greatest Salazar Slytherin!”
“Slytherin’s Chamber of Secrets!” Xia Zhi’s eyes lit up.
“To enter that place, you need the gift of Parseltongue! And you happen to have it, so we can go in now..！”Tom was very pleased with Xia Zhi’s reaction
“Remember, you must follow the steps I wrote after entering, otherwise you will be in danger.”Tom was worried that Xia Zhi would accidentally release the basilisk, and he would be dead if he looked into the eyes of the basilisk, so he planned not to release the basilisk until he was resurrected.
“Oh… I see.”
Xia Zhi closed his diary and did his homework with Cassandra and the others.
This was the first time that Tom did not stay in the dream and spent the whole day outside.
He had noticed the strange-looking alchemical product on the librarian’s desk a long time ago. When he was still in Hogwarts, the library did not have this thing…
Tom saw Xia Zhi and Cassandra communicating in a friendly manner. Thinking that it was with his help that Xia Zhi could make such great progress so quickly, he could not help but feel proud. Haha, I am worthy of it! At midnight, when it was late at night, a figure flashed out of the Gryffindor attic.
Xia Zhi slipped out quietly with the diary and quietly touched the direction specified by Tom.
This was the first time that Xia Zhi started a night tour without the Disillusionment Charm.
Although he was extremely calm in his heart, he still pretended to be nervous.
Although Xia Zhi did not Even with the Disillusionment Charm, Filch and his cat still couldn’t catch Solstice because Solstice could”see” where they were.
The closest time, Solstice squatted down to tie her shoelaces, and then Filch, who was far away and would definitely meet Solstice face to face, walked over without knowing it. Solstice’s squatting just missed Filch.
Solstice’s movements were very natural, so Tom didn’t suspect anything at all.
Solstice slipped into the girls’ bathroom on the third floor of the castle.
As soon as she entered, Solstice heard Myrtle crying in a cubicle.
Solstice waved her wand silently, and a dim purple ray quietly sank into the cubicle.
Then Myrtle’s voice disappeared, and she had been hypnotized by Solstice’s soul magic.
Tom didn’t notice Solstice’s movements, but focused all his attention on the sink.
Solstice found the faucet with a small snake carved on it as Tom said before.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss… (Open……）”
“”Boom!”
The round wash basin in front of him slowly shrank back and then gradually disappeared, revealing a huge pipe on the ground. The pipe was pitch black and no one knew where it led to.
Xia Zhi did not hesitate and jumped down the pipe. Then he slid down the pipe like a slide.
Xia Zhi felt that his speed was getting faster and faster, and the air around him was getting more and more humid and smelly.
“”Pah!”
Xia Zhi finally slid down and stepped into the soft mud.
Xia Zhi lifted his foot with a look of disgust, cast a fluorescent spell to illuminate the surroundings, and then walked forward step by step in a slightly embarrassed manner.
He did not see the huge snake slough of the basilisk as he imagined on the road.
Xia Zhi did not walk far before he saw a solid wall with two snakes entwined with each other carved on it. Their eyes were inlaid with large, shining emeralds.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss… (Open……）”
The two snakes suddenly separated, the stone wall cracked in the middle, slowly slid to both sides and disappeared.
Xia Zhi walked in slowly. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
This is a long and narrow room, and the surrounding light is quite dim.
Many stone pillars with engraved coiled snakes stand tall to support the ceiling that smiles in the darkness above.
The whole room filled with green and mysterious mist is cast with long and strange black shadows.
Xia Zhi walked forward slowly while looking around.
Every step he took produced a hollow and loud echo between the four walls filled with ghostly shadows.[]
Walking to the end of the room, Xia Zhi raised his head and looked at the statue in front of him with interest.
This was an old man.
It must be said that this statue was quite huge, and Xia Zhi had to look up to see his face.
This was a monkey-like face, with a sparse long beard that almost dragged to the hem of the wizard’s robe carved from stone.
He didn’t know whether Slytherin had always looked like this, or whether he looked like this because he studied the dark arts too much.
Just like Tom, how handsome he was in the past, how shabby he became later.
Xia Zhi pulled out his wand. Of course, this was not his own wand, but Slytherin’s wand!
Tom was very confused when he saw him like this, and didn’t know what he wanted to do.
He had told Xia Zhi that there would be a door on the wall between the two bare feet of the Slytherin statue. Opening it in the same way as before would reveal a small room behind it, which contained some magic notebooks.
Although he took away a lot of them in the past, he also left a lot in it.
Xia Zhi suddenly threw the diary on the ground
“..……？”Tom was shocked. What on earth was Xia Zhi trying to do? And what was going on with the wand in his hand? Why had he never seen it before?
Such a strong fluctuation of magic power… How could this wand be so powerful?
Xia Zhi ignored Tom who was writing frantically in his diary, and instead stared at the statue of Slytherin.
“Ss…）”
Tom was shocked. What was going on? Why did Xia Zhi know this code?
Moreover, this code could awaken the basilisk!
Seeing Xia Zhi still staring at the statue with wide eyes, Tom became anxious and flipped the pages of his diary frantically.
“”Stop! Xiazhi! Close your eyes! The basilisk is coming out, and its gaze can be deadly!”
However, Tom was not able to show up yet, and he couldn’t shout at all.
Slytherin’s huge stone face moved, and its mouth opened, and it got bigger and bigger, and finally formed a huge black hole.
Something was moving in the mouth of the statue, making rustling sounds.
It’s over, the basilisk is about to come out, Xiazhi is dead… Tom’s heart suddenly felt empty.
“”Swoosh!”
A terrifyingly huge snake with ginger eyes crawled out of the mouth of the Slytherin statue.
The snake monster was green all over, with the bright light unique to venomous snakes, and its body was as thick as the trunk of an oak tree.
It raised its upper body, stretched its flat head in front of Xia Zhi, and looked at him carefully.
Xia Zhi looked at it calmly and fearlessly!
The familiar feeling of coldness came again, but a warm magic power came from Slytherin’s wand again, driving the coldness out of his body.
“Hiss hiss… (I’m hungry… I’m very hungry… I need to eat……）”The basilisk raised its head and stabbed its scarlet tongue irritably.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss… (Just wait patiently, I’ll take you to eat later.）”
The basilisk was frightened and immediately fell to the ground, not daring to move. Xia Zhi’s Parseltongue is the most advanced and has the highest priority. Now, even Tom can’t take away the control of the basilisk.
Tom sensed everything on the side, and his heart was already in turmoil!
Why is this? Why did Xia Zhi know the existence of the basilisk in the secret room so early, and why could he look directly into the eyes of the basilisk without any harm? Why does the wand in his hand emit such a powerful magic fluctuation?
Xia Zhi turned his head to look at Tom’s diary, and suddenly laughed, like a super villain.
“Tom, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, I would have to search for a long time to find Slytherin’s Chamber of Secrets.” Xia Zhi’s voice came faintly.
Tom was stunned. Xia Zhi’s words contained too much information!
