Chapter 179 Ice and Snow
Senior Tom is a genius after all. He explored the existence of cutting-edge black magic at a young age. Although he couldn't see it, he still used the magic of perception quietly. Although he didn't find the enemy, he also found the dancing basilisk.
Suddenly, he became furious!
what on earth is it? This is completely different from what I thought.
not like this!
Why besides the Parseltongue, there is also this weird flute sound that can affect the Basilisk? !
Senior Tom has already explored the source of the sound for the first time, but the opponent is very cunning, and the person is not where the sound came from, or the source of the sound was covered up.
Fortunately, the basilisk has been awakened by Tom's Parseltongue. They were sitting together anxiously, not understanding what happened to them just now.
"Thought this would be all right? Hiding in the dark?! Swarms of bats!" Senior Tom no longer worried that consuming mana would delay his resurrection, and directly used the attack spell.
Through the goggles, Ted saw a ball of magic power flying out from the tip of Tom's wand, turning into countless palm-sized bats, and began to fly around at an extremely fast speed.
Response is so fast!
I didn't expect that even the youthful version of Voldemort would have such a quick response and such a deep reserve of magic spells, that he would think of summoning a large number of bats to explore the space and force the enemy's position in a short time.
"Swarms of bees all over the sky!"
"Flock of birds!"
Hermione used her own summoning spell.
Summoning spells are considered a branch of Transfiguration, such as the Flying Curse, a spell that summons something remotely, or a spell that uses magic power to transform into various items.
Hermione has worked hard for a semester, but she has made great progress in Transfiguration.
Now in the eyes of Professor McGonagall, she is the number one proud student.
Countless wasps buzzed out, and a large number of birds flew around on the roof to disturb the sight and hearing.
At the same time, Ron and Jerry raised their wands together: "All bullets!"
Dozens of hundreds of small stones flew out, flying towards the bats that rushed over.
In an instant, the whole scene turned into a hail of bullets, bats, birds, wasps, missiles, all became a mess.
All kinds of creatures fell down, but these magical things didn't last long, and disappeared after twenty or thirty seconds.
"Hahaha! I should have guessed that you have always advanced and retreated together. Are you all here? And Ted?"
Because he had been in the hands of Ron and Neville twice, senior Tom knew a lot about the group of six, especially Ted, who was admired by Ron and respected by Neville. Senior Tom actually disdained it.
At this moment, he knew that he had been put together by these six little wizards, but Senior Tom laughed back with anger.
"It happened to catch you all!" He grinned slightly and smiled cruelly.
"Go! Kill 'em!" (Parseltongue)
Under the command of Parseltongue, although the basilisk could not find Ted's position, it still swam quickly, with its head held high, and its huge tail began to sweep wildly!
The tail of the snake as thick as the water tank was like the roller of a road roller flying up. With a loud bang, a stone snake statue beside the corridor was smashed. The gravel was shot around like a cannonball.
In the darkness, the basilisk could not perceive the enemy, so it began to destroy a large area recklessly!
Jerry and Hermione hurriedly hid behind the surrounding huge support pillars, hearing the crackling sound of gravel hitting the ground and the stone pillars behind them, their hearts were beating wildly with fright.
Even if this basilisk doesn't have the terrifying ability to stare at anyone, this brute force alone is enough to cause headaches.
If a fire dragon falls on the ground, it is afraid that it will not be the opponent of this basilisk.
During the telepathic communication, Ted said: Let's start!
In Ted's silent release, an improved version of the sound-suppressing spell-sound-proof enchantment.
Within the magic range, the friends began to cast the freezing spell together.
And under Ted's feet, a pale cold air began to spread—a new way of playing Frost Nova.
Ted began to pour out a large amount of ice cubes from a small box the size of a textbook behind him.
The box is a box casted with the Untraceable Extending Charm. It has a huge area and is worth 32 Galleons.
The ice cubes are free and are taken from the ice bank of the house-elves in the school kitchen.
Ted stuffed as many ice cubes as seven or eight freezers, and now they are pouring out silently...
It only took thirty or forty seconds, and the already cold underground space began to cool down.
And because the dark field created by Ansu is still there, it is impossible to see things clearly. Senior Tom has no sense of touch and doesn't know the cold, so he didn't notice it.
The basilisk waved its tail recklessly around, smashing and sweeping everywhere, except for the Slytherin statue behind it, nothing else was spared.
But after more than a minute, it obviously felt something was wrong—hiss~ a little cold?
This feeling is a bit strange to the basilisk.
Although Hogwarts is located in the Scottish Highlands, it is very cold in winter.
But since it was created by Slytherin, it hasn't had much exposure to winter. It hibernates in winter.
Especially after Slytherin experimented on it and slowed down its metabolism. I also eat less, sleep more, and basically have no activities in winter.
That is, last winter, senior Tom controlled Ron to open the secret room and ordered the basilisk to dispatch several times, which was also to let the wind out in the castle.
Now this kind of cold, I'm really not familiar with it.
This kind of abnormality made the basilisk cautious, no longer destroying randomly, but curled up and watched the changes.
However, the more you wait, the colder it gets. Why is your body numb? Still a little sleepy!
Although the basilisk's magic resistance is already very high, it is so high that even if the professors come, they don't know what to do for a while. But it is still a snake after all, and it is still a temperature-changing animal.
As Ted built a cold storage in the secret room, the temperature dropped rapidly, and the exposed skin of the friends already had goose bumps.
Hermione cast a warming spell on the other friends in the sound-absorbing barrier, which could keep them warm, but it could only make people restrain themselves from shaking. It can be seen that the temperature is already very low.
At this time, the basilisk even began to gather fine water droplets on its scales!
No matter how high the magic resistance is, it still cannot avoid the physiological impact.
It felt very bad and started neighing.
Neville immediately gave the translator: it said it was cold, very cold, and wanted to go back to sleep!
Senior Tom finally found out that something was wrong: Merlin is naive, these little devils are playing tricks on me!
"Don't stay there stupidly! Move! There is not much space here, crush every inch of land!" Senior Tom urged the basilisk to move in Parseltongue.
Parselmouth has a strong control over snakes. The basilisk is extremely reluctant in the low temperature, but it still has to be obedient. It unfolds its body and swims on the ice-cold stone ground. The body temperature drops rapidly and its movements are slow. a lot.
But this trick is useful.
Although the underground space is about half the size of a football field, the basilisk stretched more than 20 meters straight. It really ran over like this. Ted and the others really had no place to hide.
At this moment, Ansu, who had not moved except for spreading the dark field, finally moved, sliding towards the basilisk silently.
Ted, on the other hand, used the card [Promotion (Red)] that had been prepared a long time ago on it...
