Harry Potter: The Dragon That Sleeps

The sight of the basilisk has the effect of solidifying magic power, allowing it to kill any life instantly.

The first casualties that night were caused by the basilisk, and those who died were two bounty wizards who were unable to dodge.

At the last moment when Jodi temporarily evacuated, the scene that caught his eye was that the forest elf had wrapped itself around the huge body of the basilisk, and the vines penetrated into the huge body as the basilisk howled. It would become the new carrier of Remus.

.

"If something happens to Draco...how are you going to face the Malfoy family?" Jodi's final roar pointed out what the surviving bounty wizards should pay attention to.

Subsequently, the magic power pushed away by the gravity spell was quickly crystallized, and even Jodi felt his arms become stiff.

Lum completed the apparation in a relatively safe environment.

Take Jody and disappear into the formed crystal ball.

Then the next moment their figures completely disappeared.

Draco raised his hand, and the explosive magic blew the ball to pieces!

No, he should be called Tom now.

The atmosphere in the bathroom was still tense, and the bounty wizards were hesitant about what to do next.

However, the first sound that came out was not a curse, but the clear voice of a young man.

"We don't need to be enemies. Letting me leave does not violate the terms of the deal between you and the Malfoy family. Even if it does, they don't like to settle the full amount of fees for you, do they?"

As the legend goes, Tom is a character who is good at discerning people's hearts.

He held the diary that sealed Draco's original soul and glanced around, "I don't think I need to say anything more. Or are you interested in testing the basilisk's eyes?"

The news that the basilisk exists in Hogwarts is no longer a secret to these bounty wizards, and most of them are prepared to survive.

In the first wave of attacks that tried to kill Jodi, those snake eyes had already consumed too many people's emergency life-saving tricks.

The bounty wizard is always in a state of disarray at such moments, unable to respond decisively and positively.

But this is no reason to underestimate them.

In fact, the young Tom who has just put on a new body is the one who least wants the conflict to happen. At this age, he is actually not particularly powerful, and his greatest source of ability...the basilisk was also used for freedom.

So far away, it no longer belongs to him.

Fortunately, as the price of the transaction, Remus left him some gadgets for use.

The bulge bulged from under his magic robe, and made a cracking sound after it reached its limit.

A series of small spiders were summoned and landed on the ground. These were the spider relatives used by Remus for temporary filling. A special bloodline that was forcibly ingested.

"Hiss, hiss~" When Remus spoke again, he used the mouth of a basilisk, and the sound he made was naturally the sound of a snake.

After accepting the basilisk's body and coming into contact with the basilisk's memory, he 'saw' some interesting things to share with the boy in front of him.

"Hiss (that's really interesting.)" Tom seemed to be very interested in what it said.

"Looks like I have to be the guy who attracts attention for you?"

"No, I'm much more conspicuous than you in terms of size." The Basilisk hissed at the end.

Parseltongue is rare, and no one present could understand the content of the conversation between the two.

But no matter what, the snake has left, and Tom doesn't dare to stay any longer.

The powerful enemy slowly withdrew amid vigilance. The bounty wizards breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly sent an urgent letter to Mr. Lucius.

……………………

At the other end of Hogwarts, Mr. Lockhart reluctantly went to meet Professor McGonagall, driven by the professor's accusation. The old professor looked serious.

Beside her was Cyrus, who came to warn her on Jody's orders.

And guarding Lockhart were the Crouber brothers who guarded him very conscientiously after running away halfway.

"Hey! Let me guess what happened?" Lockhart forced a smile, trying to maintain his usual calmness.

Professor McGonagall's eyes lit up when she saw his appearance, "Ah! Mr. Lockhart, maybe now is the time when we have to rely on you."

"Pfft, cough cough cough..." Dorak, who was leaning against the pillar, choked on his own saliva.

Logically speaking, Professor McGonagall shouldn't be so evil-minded that she would let Lockhart die like this?

Dorak carefully checked Professor McGonagall's expression, and then he realized that Professor McGonagall seemed to have misunderstood something. She really regarded Lockhart as a plate.

It's no wonder that this year Professor McGonagall is much busier than before. Since the year before last, she has always had to take on the role of acting principal, and Mr. Lockhart's duel club some time ago made him

Going too far... uh, provoking?

Dorak was still very kind-hearted even though he had been paid. Of course, the main reason was that Lockhart, who was rich and had no intention of bargaining, agreed to a price that Dorak didn't think twice about.

"I think……"

Dorak saw Lockhart's hesitation, but unfortunately he didn't catch the look of his determination. He spoke at the right time and interrupted what the latter wanted to say, "I think when it comes to facing the basilisk, Lohart

One person is definitely not enough, so let’s do it~ I also have certain attainments in Defense Against the Dark Arts, and because of my family relationship, I can have some practical gadgets to rely on.”

"That's it. While Professor Flitwick and I gather the children, I need you to patrol around the castle. Before the Auror team arrives... I declare that Hogwarts has entered level one alert!"

Lockhart thus missed the opportunity to refuse.

On the other side of the castle, the battle has begun.

Aurors are not all idiots, especially this batch of garrison teams sent from the beginning to prepare for combat missions.

The news of the escape of the forest elf Remus has also been revealed, and there is an uproar in the Druid Church.

Trading the energy alienated by Remus to a pure-blood family is already a sideline to the doctrine. Letting Remus escape successfully is something that these druids will never allow.

Kino is the Druid Church that visited in such an atmosphere.

……………………

Operate the plan urgently and calculate the next decision at an extremely fast speed.

Jody really didn't want to give up the basilisk's eyes. How would the Malfoy family, who would never have allowed him to modify Slytherin's secret treasure, feel after learning that their only heir had been killed?

Things happened suddenly, and Jody was not ready for a full-scale war, so taking back Draco was the best bargaining chip he could think of.

The old magic book was carried along with the heart, and the resurrection stone was also stored in the breast pocket.

Modrea gently stroked the back of Jody's hand and slipped into his wand.

This chaos won't last long.

But the chaos may be far more dangerous than last year.
