The Soul of Hogwarts Across Worlds

Chapter 151 Harry's Misfortune
Hogwarts was eerily silent at night.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, or it's just like this.

The night at Hogwarts seems to have gotten a bit colder after two young wizards were attacked.

The Hermione and Ron operation can be said to be very successful.

After the attack, although the professors began to take turns to patrol the night.But such patrols are only near the towers of the students' dormitories.

After narrowly avoiding the Gryffindor tower in charge of Professor Rolanda Hooch.

The road to the Restricted Area can be said to be unimpeded.

On the second floor of the castle, the library at the moment is quiet and weird, after carefully crossing the rope between the ordinary bookshelf and the restricted area.

Hermione and Ron started looking for clues separately.

With the experience of Nicolas last year, Hermione also knew that this kind of basilisk that can live for thousands of years is definitely not a modern product, at least there are clues in books hundreds of years ago.

The process of searching for information is quite boring. In addition to aimlessness and no accurate direction, what is more important is that the magic books in the restricted area are protected by black magic, and some dangerous books may cause harm to them.

After a few hours in a hurry.

When Ron was about to give up, he finally found some descriptions in a small booklet sandwiched between two heavy books.

"Hermione, come here."

Ron quickly waved the yellowed booklet in his hand and said.

And Hermione hurried over upon hearing the sound.

"It happens to be a student's notebook?" Hermione asked suspiciously while holding the thin 'book'.

"700 years ago. (indistinct) a dark wizard of ancient Greece Helbo the Vile
He is one of the most powerful and influential dark wizards known in history.He was the first wizard to successfully create a Horcrux, and possibly the first to invent how to make it.

He invented many evil curses, which made him notorious.E.g. (illegible) is his masterpiece.

According to legend, Haierbo was also a wizard who discovered that the snake king could be hatched by hatching eggs with toads.He was one of the early Parseltongues, born with the rare ability to communicate with snakes.Ability to control basilisks using Parseltongue.
For details, please refer to the book "Unveiling the Black Magic" on the seventh shelf in the restricted area, on the third floor."

This is a note that is at least hundreds of years old, because the English used in this note also has a lot of Latin and French mixed in.

Apparently Voldemort had already checked all the information about Horcruxes in the Restricted Section when he was a student at Hogwarts.

Sure enough, after getting advice, Hermione and Ron somehow found the book "Unveiling the Dark Arts" on the seventh shelf.

"Someone stole the "Dark Magic Unveiled"!" Ron also reflected at this time, sometimes the books in the restricted area will not be read for centuries. How could it be such a coincidence that he just wanted The one you were looking for disappeared?

"The descendant of Slytherin must have stolen it 50 years ago." Hermione reasoned calmly.

"The notebook we found should have been handwritten down by a Hogwarts senior. Fortunately, the Basilisk has been clearly introduced here."

'Basilisk is a snake-like magical creature with a green body, but it is essentially different from a poisonous snake.Its line of sight is the most dangerous weapon of attack: any creature that meets its gaze directly is instantly killed, and those that meet it indirectly (such as looking in a mirror) are petrified.Basilisks can usually live for a long time as long as they are well fed or hibernate. '

Hermione pointed to the text on the note and said: "There is a basilisk in the chamber of secrets left by Slytherin, and they all match up. If you intersect indirectly with the basilisk, you will be petrified. Colin is through the camera.

Hannah Abbott is through which polished copper pots. "

"But, how did the basilisk run around Hogwarts?" Ron followed Hermione towards the Gryffindor tower.

"I mean, with a basilisk that big, someone will always see it."

"I don't know." Hermione said discouragedly, rubbing her aching head.

Although they found the information, the two were not very happy.

Because new problems also appeared immediately.

After thinking for a long time, the two decided to go back to the dormitory first. They had been wandering outside for a long time, and there was no guarantee that they would not be discovered by the professors.

"Wait, there seems to be someone up ahead." Ron quickly stopped Hermione.

Just when they passed the third floor, Ron keenly heard footsteps coming from the stairs in front.

The two quickly cling to the wall, wearing the invisibility cloak, as long as they don't get directly hit by people, otherwise they won't be discovered.

"The sound of footsteps seems to be walking towards Myrtle's bathroom." Ron said in a low voice.

"Why would someone come here at this time? Could it be the descendant?" Hermione ignored Ron's obstruction as she spoke, and moved slowly towards the bathroom cautiously.

The invisibility cloak was worn on the body, which made the two of them not have to worry about being seen, but this did not mean that they would not be noticed.After all, it is only invisible but not disappearing. The sound of footsteps, breathing, and heartbeat cannot be eliminated.

And a really powerful wizard can judge those invisible units from the surrounding air flow.

In the dim bathroom, a familiar figure to Hermione Ron stood in front of the washstand.

"Pa-ta!" A drop of water fell into the pool, splashing a burst of ripples, the girl's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked towards the direction outside the door with sharp and cold eyes.

"Harry?"

After seeing the man's face, Hermione and Ron quickly took off the invisibility cloak and walked over.

"Why are you here?" Harry's voice was stiff and hollow, but perhaps because of the small voice, Hermione and Ron didn't notice any difference.

"We just went to the restricted area to search for information. Look what we found." As he spoke, Ron took out the yellowed notebook he found, and displayed the description in it on Harry's before.

"So it is!"

"But we still don't know how that evil basilisk managed to attack back and forth in the castle without being noticed." Hermione shook her head and sighed.

"We still need some time," Ron suggested.

At this moment, Harley's eyes became indifferent, and she raised her head to the direction of the door again and said, "Who is it? Come out!"

"Eh, it's midnight, are you little wizards going to hold a party here?"

From the shadows, Lockhart led a little blond boy out.

"Malfoy?" Ron said in surprise, staring at the little wizard who was right next to Lockhart.

"Oh! What a surprise, a little Slytherin wizard who slipped out of bed actually led me to discover three other little Gryffindor wizards." Lockhart was still saying witty words, he crossed his arms, The manner of an associate professor.

"Malfoy? Are you following us?" Ron asked suspiciously.Impossible, he and Hermione were obviously wearing invisible clothes, how could they be discovered?

"Idiot, he came with Harry." Hermione said, kicking Ron lightly beside him.

"Okay, four little wizards who violated the curfew, come back with me immediately, I think your respective deans will punish you severely." Lockhart stretched out his hand like driving a flock of sheep, and urged The little wizards present.

And at this moment, a cold voice came from behind Hermione and Ron.
