Chapter 97
“amazing.”
In the tall buildings of the castle, Dumbledore, who had been watching the battlefield silently, gave a solemn expression and said in admiration.
“I think they deserve to be Gryffindor people, equally stupid.”
Professor Snape’s eyes changed, and he said with a sneer. But Ulysses could see that the heart he had been holding was slightly let go.
“It seems that you set a very bad example for others in the auditorium that day, Ulysses.”
Professor Snape glanced at Ulysses, who was frightened by the fact that Ulysses rushed towards the basilisk.
“Wealth and danger, professor.”
Ulysses narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
“Don’t be so demanding of second-grade kids, Severus.”
With a smile on Dumbledore’s face, he was obviously in a good mood. “You can work together to kill a basilisk in the second grade… They can’t be asked to do better. Especially Harry… Courage is a kind of worthy Honorable character.”
“The price is that he was smashed and his sternum was broken and he was dying.”
Professor Snape sneered, his gaze fell on the big red bird, and he didn’t rush over for treatment.
…
Harry felt drowsy. Everything around seems to be spinning.
Ron and Hermione’s anxious calls were faintly heard, and Harry could hear the cry of Hermione’s voice.
Harry thought to himself that if he was dying, it wouldn’t be particularly uncomfortable. Even the pain gradually eased, and a sense of pride in killing the basilisk spontaneously emerged.
But he knew he was still alive, because his senses gradually returned to normal, and his body returned to his control.
Harry opened his eyes and shook his head slightly. He saw Phoenix Fox leaning his head on his arm, tears gleaming like pearls on his chest from the wound.
The severe pain gradually slowed down as the tears deepened. He didn’t know why, and he didn’t think about it soon after he couldn’t figure it out. He only hoped that the effect of tears could be more pronounced.
“Fox’s tears are healing, Harry. So, Hermione, Ron, don’t worry, he can’t die.”
Dumbledore’s voice sounded slowly, and he came from a distance with praise and satisfaction in his eyes.
“professor……”
Harry yelled in surprise, then touched Phoenix next to him, “It’s Fox?”
“Yes. It is a Phoenix, a very fascinating creature. Its tears can heal and detoxify, it can carry heavy things, it can send letters, spread words… Most importantly, it is very loyal.”
“cool!”
Harry exclaimed, and then looked at Fox’s eyes with a warmer look.
Ron’s eyes sparkled, and he seemed to want to take it back as a pet.
“I have to say, children, you have done a very brave and great thing, and Gryffindor will be proud of you.”
Dumbledore said with a smile, “Two major events happened tonight, which have cleared away the clouds that had hung over the castle in recent days…”
“Two big things? What is the other one?”
Hermione asked curiously, a little unconvinced in the words. In her eyes, it is very difficult for them to kill the basilisk. What else can be compared with this?
“You’ll know tomorrow. Now, Mr. Weasley, Granger Miss, please take Harry to the school hospital… Although Fox’s tears can heal, it’s better for Bobby to check it again. ”
“Okay, Professor.”
Hermione and Ron nodded, helped Harry stand up, and walked slowly towards the school hospital.
When their backs disappeared, the smile on Dumbledore’s face receded little by little. He knelt down and looked carefully at the basilisk who might die at any time, with cold light flashing in his eyes.
Then, he pulled out his wand and tapped it on the head of the basilisk.
The next moment, a faint white light floated from the basilisk’s head and fell into Dumbledore’s wand, seemingly screaming in horror.
As the white light floated out, the basilisk completely lost its breath, its huge body resembling a “Ya”, breaking down from the Shekou, crooked to both sides.
Dumbledore’s expression was a bit solemn, and after thinking about it for a while, he stood up, put away the body of the basilisk, and walked towards the castle.
After returning to the principal’s office, Ulysses had been waiting in it for a long time.
“Sorry, Ulysses, I know you are tired, but I need to know the details of the process tonight.”
Dumbledore strode in, and with a move with his right hand, a cup of steaming coffee floated into his hand, and a plate full of sweets floated up. “Some sugar? Sweets always make people more energetic.”
“No, I don’t like sugar.”
Ulysses shook his head.
“Then you will lose a lot of fun.”
Dumbledore said regretfully, dropping a sizzling bee candy into his mouth, enjoying it.
Ulysses was indeed a little tired, and just wanted to go back early and get a good night’s sleep. He pointed his wand to his temple, and the memory of tonight was hooked out by him and floated into the Meditation basin on the table not far away.
Except for the Slytherin heritage, Ulysses had no reservations. As for the Slytherin heritage, Ulysses did not know whether Dumbledore knew. If Dumbledore did not ask, he would not say.
“Then I’ll go back first, Professor.”
After finishing the memory, Ulysses stood up and said goodbye.
Dumbledore took a sip of coffee and plunged into the Meditation basin after Ulysses left the office.
After tonight’s events, the patrol in the castle has been disbanded, and no one can be seen along the way.
Back in the Slytherin common room, there were a few students who were preparing to return to the dormitory. After seeing Ulysses, there was obvious awe and alienation on his face.
Ulysses didn’t bother to care what they thought, and went straight back to 409, took off his robe and lay on the bed.
Gerrard wrapped himself in the quilt, and when he heard the sound, the quilt tumbled and showed his head cautiously.
Ulysses couldn’t help but look at it, and noticed that Gerrard was deliberately pulling away from him. He rolled his eyes and asked aloud:
“Gerald, tell me honestly, do you have an ulterior motive for coming to the castle?”
Gerrard said in confusion:
“What ulterior motive?”
“Nothing is fine.”
Ulysses said sincerely, “I have killed two roommates. I really don’t want you to be the third.”
“Damn it!”
Gerald shivered with fright, his face pale, “Are you kidding me?”
Ulysses shook his head, briefly introduced the situation of Traverse and Anderson to Gerrard, and then said seriously:
“That’s the way it is. If they don’t come to provoke me, I will naturally not target them. But if they want to kill me, then I have to kill them.”
“I don’t think I did anything wrong. If you can’t accept their death and choose to stay a long distance with me, I can understand. After all, you have lived with them for three years, and I will take the initiative to apply for a dormitory change.”
Gerald swallowed, and said quietly:
“Of course not, they deserved it…”
“It’s good if you can understand.”
Ulysses loosened his tone, stopped talking, and covered it with the quilt.
Today he was really tired, and soon he fell asleep.
