Harry Potter and Master of Magic

Zhang Hao had already mentioned the origin of the basilisk, so when Hermione spoke, the others were also nodding. They didn't want Professor McGonagall to think they knew nothing about it.

However, Professor McGonagall seems to disagree on the Basilisk's origin.

"My silly children, in fact, the conditions for the birth of basilisks are even harsher." She said with a stern face: "To be precise, the egg that hatched basilisks was originally a magic egg. It was born by a seven-year-old rooster in the sky of Sirius Otherwise, how could the basilisk have such powerful magic power? So a common rooster can only drive away the basilisk, but cannot kill the basilisk. If you want to kill the basilisk, you must find a rooster that hatched when Sirius was in the sky .Only its cry can kill the basilisk in an instant!"

This is also the first time Zhang Hao has heard such a statement, and the records in the book are not so detailed at all.

Sure enough, the professors all hold the unknown secret.

"Professor, is it true that there is no magic that can deal with basilisks?" Hermione was a little hard to accept. In the little girl's perception, magic was almost omnipotent.

She always thought that she couldn't deal with certain things because she didn't learn magic well enough. She never thought that there would be times when a knowledgeable professor couldn't use magic to solve something.

"I'm afraid not... at least I don't know of any magic that can deal with basilisks." Professor McGonagall said worriedly: "I thought Hagrid would happen to have a rooster that hatched when Sirius was in the sky, but it doesn't matter if there is any now I'm going to get him to get some roosters quickly, at least to get the basilisk under control first."

Zhang Hao was a little confused, did Professor McGonagall forget about the sword of Gryffindor, or did he not know about the sword of Gryffindor at all?

The sword of Gryffindor can also kill basilisks!

The threat of the basilisk is imminent. It was just a fluke that no students died before. Who knows if something truly terrible will happen in the future?

"Even if magic doesn't work, isn't there any powerful weapon that can kill the basilisk?" Zhang Hao reminded, "I heard that Gryffindor College has a sword. Can that sword kill the basilisk?"

There was hope again in everyone's hearts, especially Harry, Hermione and Ron, who just remembered that Gryffindor still had such a treasure.

"The sword of Gryffindor?" Professor McGonagall pursed his lips and said, "It may be able to kill the basilisk, but only those who really have the qualities that Gryffindor possesses can get it when they need it. "

Harry and the others heard this statement for the first time, so they were a little confused for a while.

"But, we need it very much right now." Harry asked eagerly, "Isn't that sword kept by Professor Dumbledore?"

"Who told you?" Professor McGonagall said in surprise: "Although the sword of Gryffindor has been hidden in Hogwarts, no one can find it. This situation has been going on for a long time, and I have never heard Deng Bullido says he has the sword of Gryffindor."

Everyone was very disappointed when they heard the words, and the hope they had finally found was gone like this!

Zhang Hao was suspicious: "Old Deng is too scheming, did he get the sword of Gryffindor?"

"Perhaps, we can ask Professor Dumbledore." He guessed, "The reason why the headmaster didn't mention the sword of Gryffindor is probably because there is no need to use it. But now, we need the sword of Gryffindor. "

"What you said makes sense, then go and ask!" Professor McGonagall thought for a moment, nodded and said, "It's not appropriate for so many people to go to him together, you and Harry come with me."

...

In the headmaster's room at Hogwarts, Dumbledore was sitting at the desk writing something.

"Albus?" cried Professor McGonagall softly. "Our students have made a major discovery about the recent attacks. It's a basilisk! There's a basilisk at Hogwarts - it's hiding in Slytherin In the secret room left.

"

Dumbledore froze for a moment, his face more serious than ever. He asked in a deep voice, "Really? Let's hear it. You can speak slowly."

Professor McGonagall did not speak, but looked at Zhang Hao and Harry encouragingly.

Zhang Hao deliberately downplayed his influence in front of Dumbledore, so he gave the opportunity to Harry.

Harry spoke and gestured intermittently, and finally made things clear.

"So you want the Sword of Gryffindor?" Dumbledore whispered, "You want to use it against the Basilisk?"

"Yes, Professor." Harry said firmly, "There is no time for cocks now, and the sword of Gryffindor is the only hope."

Zhang Hao hesitated to speak, he thought to himself: "Where does this 'only hope' come from? Could it be that my preparations were in vain?"

Dumbledore didn't contradict Harry's statement, and he looked a bit embarrassed.

"The only hope?" He said with emotion: "Yes! It is indeed the only hope, and you have to find it by yourself. Unfortunately, I can't summon the sword of Gryffindor either."

"How could this be?" Harry said excitedly, "You are the headmaster of Hogwarts, and you used to be a Gryffindor. Why can't you summon the sword of Gryffindor?"

"What's so strange about that?" Dumbledore said nonchalantly, "It will only appear when you need it most, and I don't need it now."

Zhang Hao and Harry looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.

The old man's attitude is too calm!

It is related to the basilisk and the safety of the students, can you be more nervous?

"I know your small thoughts, but I want to advise you—" Dumbledore said kindly: "If there is a basilisk in Hogwarts, it must not be something you can deal with... Even if there is Gryffindor Neither will the sword. So leave it alone, I'll let Hagrid buy some more cocks as soon as possible. Alright! Go about your own business! Don't hang out in the corridors, I don't want any of you Injured by a basilisk."

In this way, Zhang Hao and Harry were kicked out of the principal's office.

The two remained silent, and the atmosphere improved when they saw their friends.

"How?" Hermione asked anxiously, "What did the professor say?"

"He didn't let us take care of this, it's really hard to understand." Harry said dejectedly, "He's afraid that we'll be in danger, but won't we be in danger if we don't deal with the basilisk?"

"It's not that the professors don't want to solve it, they just can't solve it for the time being." Zhang Hao said leisurely: "The easiest way to kill the basilisk is to find a rooster that hatched when Sirius was in the sky. Aren't the professors working hard? Or , you want them to fight the basilisk to the death? With all due respect, let’s not say that magic can’t deal with the basilisk, even if it can… the professors have to close their eyes and fight the basilisk. Can you imagine the danger?”

Everyone looked at each other and finally realized the crux of the matter.

Sometimes it is not difficult to win a war, but how to reduce casualties is difficult.

The factor that the professors have to consider is not only how to eliminate the basilisk?
