Chapter 611 The targeted basilisk
Since returning to Hogwarts, Albert has been thinking about how to arrange the basilisk clearly. In fact, he also knew that if he thought too much and planned too much, it would be difficult to say whether it would actually come in handy, but Albert still tried his best to perfect his plan. After all, he was not Harry Potter and did not have the halo of the protagonist. There is no way to rush through it and still ensure that you are safe and sound.
“I heard that Granger was attacked.”
Lee Jordan told everyone the bad news and glanced at Albert secretly. He knew that the relationship between Albert and Granger was not bad.
“Who did you listen to?”
Albert closed the book, looked up at Lee Jordan, and then glanced at the corner of the common room, where Harry and Ron were playing wizard chess.
Lee Jordan followed Albert's gaze, and when he saw Harry and Ron, he understood what Albert meant.
No one knows Hermione’s current situation better than Harry and Ron.
After returning to school after Christmas, the school began to talk about Hermione's disappearance. Everyone naturally assumed that she had been attacked.
Hermione is a Muggle wizard and is on the attack list of the Slytherin heir. Now that she is missing and has not gone to class, she will naturally be attacked.
After hesitating again and again, Lee Jordan asked Harry and Ron for confirmation.
“Hermione?”
After learning that everyone thought Hermione had been attacked, Harry and Ron both said in embarrassment, "Hermione is sick and is being treated by Madam Pomfrey in the school hospital. It will probably take some time before she recovers and is discharged. "
“Have you known it for a long time?”
Lee Jordan was very depressed, but what made him even more depressed was that among the few people, he was the only one who had not finished his holiday homework.
“I didn’t expect that there would be times when you would need to learn from our paper.” Fred and George patted Lee Jordan’s shoulders hard and laughed extremely wickedly.
"I knew it the day I returned to school." Albert added, "I went to the school hospital to visit Granger."
However, most students still don’t understand what’s going on.
Many people believed that Hermione had been attacked, and many people even gloated about it.
Harry Potter’s archenemy, Draco Malfoy is one of them.
This guy is still regretting that it was not Hermione who was killed this time, but it happened to be that he was hit by Albert.
"I thought you would teach those **** a lesson?" Fred and George were eager to try. They had long disliked the Malfoy boy.
Neither of the Weasley twins had forgotten that Lucius Malfoy had gone to great lengths to expel their father from the Ministry of Magic. Fortunately, those plots failed in the end, otherwise their father would have been unemployed.
That was a disaster for the poor Weasley family.
If they hadn't happened to hear it, they wouldn't have known that Malfoy was so vicious and wanted people in the school to die. No matter how much he hated others, he shouldn't be like this.
"Their whole family is a dark wizard. Dark wizards are usually ruthless. It's normal to think that way." Fred disliked Draco Malfoy very much. He even suspected that Lucius might be the mastermind behind the scenes. Everyone.
"I have foreseen his future." Albert looked at Malfoy's leaving figure and said softly, "He won't be alive for long."
Fred, George and Li Jordan were all stunned, their expressions became very strange, and they suddenly felt sympathy for Malfoy.
Albert even predicted that you would be unlucky, how could you not be unlucky?
They all wanted to continue asking, but Albert didn’t want to say anything.
According to the plot of the novel, the Malfoy family would encounter a lot of bad luck one after another, so Albert didn't take Malfoy to heart at all.
Such a thing is not worth wasting too much effort on. He needs to deal with the basilisk first and get the panel mission rewards first.
“Aren’t you going to the library with us?” Li Jordan’s tone was a bit sour. He originally thought he could ask Albert to give him some advice, but the other party actually… ran away on his own!
"No, I plan to go to Hagrid." Albert separated from a few people near the library.
They are really curious guys.
When he arrived at the hunting lodge, Hagrid was adding firewood to his fireplace to make the room warmer. The unlucky Grindylow looked very bad and seemed not very adaptable to life in the water tank.
“This guy tried to escape from the water tank and almost got scorched by the fire.” Hagrid told Albert what happened during the Christmas holiday and thanked him for the Christmas gift.
Albert's Christmas gift moved Hagrid, who had not been able to feel the warmth of home for a long time.
“Have you solved that ball?”
“Well, I’ve improved it again.”
Albert took out two detection **** from his pocket and introduced them to Hagrid: "The big one has a very wide detection range, and the other small one has a detection range of only one or two hundred feet."
However, because of Grindylow, both detection **** responded.
"I think you may need to move faster before this poor hapless guy dies, otherwise I will have to get another one." Hagrid reminded him casually while pouring tea for Albert. .
He really wanted to find out the culprit with his own hands, but unfortunately, this wish may not be realized.
"I will."
Next, Hagrid cooperated with Albert to test the detection ball. Although the range was narrowed, the results were still not optimistic and needed to be modified.
In fact, not only the detection ball, but also other props are not ready yet.
Sometimes, Albert even had the idea of throwing the diary directly to Dumbledore.
This time, mission experience is not easy to earn!
Even if you are timid, there is no shame.
There are very few wizards who really dare to face the basilisk. Without the aura of the protagonist of Harry Potter to protect them, they basically stare at everyone to death. The eyes of the basilisk are too dangerous, and no one is stupid enough to want to die.
“It would be great if I could also raise a phoenix.”
Albert sighed lightly, the phoenix was very restrained against the basilisk.
With the Phoenix as a helper, he was confident that he could deal with the basilisk alone.
It's a pity... On the way back to the castle, Albert remembered another thing. Fox flew away after Dumbledore died.
It would be nice if... I could let it follow me.
No, it should be said that you invite it to your home as a guest, and you can take care of its food and drink and take good care of it. As long as you can provide some tears and feathers by ordering Fox.
Fantasy is beautiful, but reality is often very cruel.
“Sure enough, it’s not that easy to trigger the mission.” Albert stared at his mission panel and sighed softly. If he could use the power of the Phoenix, he believed he could take care of the basilisk in minutes.
Now, I can only hope that my **** can be put to some use.
"Let the house elves raise more." Albert muttered. Since the book said that basilisks were afraid of the crow of roosters, he didn't believe that roosters were really useless.
Since the quality is not enough, let’s make up the quantity.
One day, if the basilisk really dares to attack him, he will dare to release a bunch of roosters to block his gun, and give the basilisk an unexpected surprise.
It’s interesting to think about that image.
Even if it is a basilisk, it can block the plots and calculations of those who are interested.
The basilisk's skin and fangs are both of high value.
If his eyes were not blind, he might be able to make another black magic item similar to the Banshee's Wail.
