Conquering the Heavens: Beginning at Hogwarts

Chapter 86 Basilisk

"it is good"

Ron felt a little intoxicated, and he excitedly said to Harry: "Harry, Harry! Did you see that? Hermione praised me, she praised me!"

Ron thought in his heart, she praised me, it must be my hard work being seen, I have hope, I can defeat Pender, definitely can!

Thinking of this, Ron cheered himself up crazily, as if he had already defeated Pender and won the beauty's heart.

"Yes, yes," Harry smiled helplessly, he understood his good brother, but this yelling was too strange,

Harry took Ron's arm and said, "Calm down first, and then we'll practice again, and I'll definitely impress her next time."

"That's right, that's right!" Ron nodded repeatedly, and trotted all the way to the potion laboratory, so excited, I don't know if he thought it was a big happy event.

Hermione never expected that a compliment she gave to her friend would make Ron think so much
Harry looked at Ron who was running away, and shook his head helplessly, "I'll follow him to prevent him from doing anything stupid."

"Okay." Malfoy nodded.
His recent changes can be said to be the biggest except for Ron. His stature has skyrocketed a lot, and his blond hair has grown slightly longer. It can be said that he is responsible for his appearance among the top four.

His potion level is high,

Because of Pendor's absence, Snape devoted part of his energy to Malfoy and cultivated him a little bit, which can be regarded as helping his friends to cultivate future generations, and also accumulating contacts for himself.

Malfoy's current potion level is on par with Hermione's, which is level three, and he can easily configure intermediate potions. Of course, those rare potions still can't,
After all, it is not as outrageous as Pender.

"Then Neville and I will ask Hagrid to see if we can find some clues."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Because Harry is no longer the Boy Who Lived, he didn't become Voldemort's Horcrux, so he can't speak Parseltongue, and naturally he can't hear the Basilisk.

The three separated, Harry went to chase Ron, Malfoy and Neville went to Hagrid, and started to act after the assignment.

Harry ran towards the potions lab,
The potion laboratory is specially prepared for young wizards who want to practice potion after class. The school pays for it, but the potion that is successfully refined must be distributed to the school.
It's pretty good, after all, if you fail, you won't be charged, and if you succeed, you can get half of the potion, which is blood money for little Muggle wizards.

But very few people discovered this blind spot. Everyone was in a hurry to practice magic spells and fight duels, and there were too few people who came to practice potions.

Harry opened the door,
"Strange, where did Ron go? Could it be the wrong direction? This idiot."

After wandering around the classroom but finding no one, Harry couldn't help wondering if Ron was too excited and ran in the wrong direction.
Shaking his head, Harry closed the door and chased in another direction.

Shortly after he left,

A figure walked out of the potion laboratory, it was Ron.

He holds a notebook,
But this time, it was no longer talking to himself.

"Why should I dump Harry?"

"You know, my existence cannot be known. If more than two people know, then the spell that controls the elves will eliminate me."

"Okay, what are we studying today? Potions?"

"No, we are learning spells today. Didn't you say that next year will be the Triwizard Tournament? We need to prepare early and defeat that arrogant guy in the competition, so that the little girl you like will like you .”

The voice from the notebook is full of bewitching, and everyone will feel that there is a problem,

But after so long, Ron has been deeply involved, and regards the notebook as a better friend than Harry, otherwise he would not hide it from Harry.

When the notebook said this, Ron immediately became excited.

"That's right! I want to defeat Pendor and prove to Hermione that I am better!"

"If you have ambition, let's start, but you have to refrain from using it. This is our hole card, and we can't let people know."

"understand!"

half night,

Hermione returned to the dormitory contentedly with a pile of new knowledge. She now lives in Pendor's room completely, and everything has been moved.

For Hermione, it's better to live alone, at least no one will disturb her study.

"I don't know if Harry and the others went to ask, forget it, let's go to bed first."

Hermione yawned, washed up casually before going to bed,

But the moment she just climbed onto the bed, a strong sense of crisis surged in her heart.

She woke up immediately and lost all sleepiness in an instant.

This is a telepathic response, a reaction that has appeared since she started learning Animagus. Professor McGonagall said that this is normal and a manifestation of talent,
Because this kind of sense of crisis can only be found in wild beasts, after the wizard becomes an Animagus, it will take a long time to train.

Dumbledore told Hermione she could trust the feeling,

Once this feeling appeared, I thought that there was a higher-level existence, or a creature that was stronger than myself and could kill me wandering around,
At this time, we must be extra careful, and we must not relax for a moment.

Hermione looked around vigilantly, everything in the room was as it was, she remembered.

What it is?
Hermione scanned every corner of the room, and then,

The moment he glanced at the mirror, he saw a pair of terrifying yellow eyes——

Harry circled around, but still failed to find Ron, and instead met Malfoy who had come back.

"How?" Harry asked.

"It's not good, it's not good." Malfoy's face was a little ugly.

"How to say?"

Harry looked at the two of them, they were very embarrassed, their faces were pale, as if they were overly frightened.

"We." Malfoy said briefly of their experience.

It turned out that when the two arrived at Hagrid's hut, they found that Hagrid was not there, but they saw spiders carrying things and running away.

Malfoy was keen, he thought of something in an instant, and led Neville and followed the spider all the way to the Forbidden Forest.

As in the original book, when Harry and Ron went, they also saw Aragog, the acromantula, and learned the news of the reappearance of the basilisk.

But then, this guy actually wanted to eat them both,

But fortunately, they are very strong now. Malfoy and Neville cooperate very well. One is the main attacker and the other is the defense. They quickly break through,
In the end, he was lucky enough to meet a centaur, and he was saved.

"So, it's really a basilisk? But Hermione said that people who saw the basilisk died, but why did those people just petrify?"

"It's weird, but it's not something we should be thinking about, and we should be telling the professors now."

"It makes sense, let's go, let's go to Professor Dumbledore."

Harry nodded, and the three of them ran towards the principal's office, but upon arriving at the principal's office, they found that Dumbledore was not there.

"Why is it such a coincidence every time, Professor Dumbledore is always away." Malfoy pursed his lips, really, the strongest person dropped the line at a critical moment.

"Isn't this normal? Hogwarts is indestructible with Dumbledore around. It's normal to do something when Professor Dumbledore is gone."

"Hermione? Why are you here?" Harry heard the sound and looked back.

Hermione suddenly appeared behind the three of them, but she was a little bit bad now.
