Hogwarts: The Greatest Wizard

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, then said,

"So, the Black family inherited one of them?"

Feeney shook his head and said,

"No, according to the Slytherin diary I found from Gaunt's house, one of them was killed and eaten by the four of them,"

Dumbledore was also a little dumbfounded when he heard this. Eat?

Such a cherished, rare and dangerous creature is just a kind of food in the eyes of the four founders?

Looking at Dumbledore's surprised, shocked and slightly confused eyes, Feeney shrugged.

"To be honest, I don't really believe it, but the Gaunt family's diary about Slytherin does contain this record, and it is said that it tastes pretty good,"

Slytherin is a little irritated. No one has tried to cultivate a creature like the basilisk. However, this kind of creature is too harmful. Not to mention its huge body, after all, it takes time to grow.

However, the eyes of this creature are lethal. Just like the Death Curse, once you see the eyes of the basilisk, you will die immediately. Not to mention, they themselves are extremely poisonous that is rare in the world.

Even if someone cultivates such a dangerous creature, it cannot be controlled and raised normally. Under normal circumstances, those wizards are killed by the basilisk.

Slytherin is one of the few families with the bloodline of snake-like magical creatures, so his ability to cultivate two basilisks means that he can control two basilisks. This is a very powerful power, not to mention thousands of years ago. , when witch-killing operations were popular, even now, with two basilisks, you can dominate half of the magic world.

But, what did Slytherin do? He ate it! Just because the four of them wanted to have a taste,

Dumbledore changed the topic with a black line. Even if he thinks about Slytherin's actions now, he will feel suffocating heartache.

"So where did you get the venom from your basilisk?"

"Inside the Black family's vault,"

Feeney replied very calmly,

"Maybe one of the ancestors of the Black family got it in the past. I also found it in a pile of things."

Dumbledore rolled his eyes. He knew that Finny's words were false as soon as he heard them. Even the venom of the basilisk is just venom, and venom has a time effect. If it is not used for a long time, it will react with the air. The reaction solidifies and finally evaporates and dissipates.

The bottle of venom that Feeney handed him was in good condition, and when he judged the nature of the item just now, he could feel a little dizzy after just sniffing it, which was enough to see that the poison of this thing was intact. Such venom, even if it is not The newly extracted items were also extracted recently. How could they be the contents of the Black family's vault?

Not to mention, his office now has a portrait of Finny's direct great-grandfather, Principal Phineas Black. If the Black family really had such a precious thing, it was impossible for him not to mention it. After all, he was a very A principal who values ​​bloodlines and likes to show off.

However, even if he knew that Finny was lying, Dumbledore had no intention of getting to the bottom of the problem. In fact, he just asked. Although the vial of venom was not much, it also showed something.

Either Finny has a basilisk under his command and asks him to extract the venom, or Finny knows a wizard who raises basilisks and can provide him with venom. In any case, it is certain that the Black family can now control a basilisk. .

In fact, Dumbledore believed that the first scenario was the most likely. After all, the Black family had Slytherin blood. Although it was thin, Feeney had only undergone blood sublimation last year, and by coincidence he had awakened the snake. It is not impossible to have talent in Laoqiang, although the probability is very small.

And if it's the second case, there are only a few families in the wizarding world with Snake's voice. You know, there are only seven falsetto Slytherin and Gaunt families in Europe who have the talent of Snake. , of course, now we have to add Black.

This stems from the birth of wizards. Many wizards' talents are obtained through magical transformation. Generally, there are two situations. One of them is that a certain ancestor has undergone a very deep magical transformation, thus transforming the blood of a certain magical creature. Integrated into one's own bloodline,

The other is that the wizard considers the blood of magical creatures to be integrated into his own blood at the beginning of his birth. Simply put, it is to pass on a new mixed blood. After countless generations of inheritance, it stabilizes, so that magical creatures exist in the body. Characteristics, this is the reason why all wizards are born. However, wizards born in this way generally do not have special talents, such as She Laoqiang, or the Phoenix of the Dumbledore family. This is the blood purification brought about by magical transformation. The effect is,

These two reasons have led to a default theorem in the magic world. When there are two wizards with the same talent, there must be a blood connection between them.

Dumbledore really doesn't know many descendants of Snake Mandarin. What he can confirm is a relatively mysterious family in Europe. Their middle names are Visisse Balm.

It is said that all the English speakers are of Slytherin blood, which is actually wrong, because as far as Feeney knows, the matron of Selwyn's generation is a direct descendant of the Visithebalm family.

Returning to the present topic, this vial of basilisk venom naturally cannot be from the Black family's vault. Of course, it cannot be obtained from the two channels Dumbledore guessed.

In fact, Feeney bought this bottle of venom in the system mall. He only thought of searching for the basilisk venom in the system when he was thinking about how to destroy Hufflepuff's golden cup. In fact, he wanted to find it at that time. It was other highly toxic venoms, and finally I found the thing that destroyed the Horcrux in the original work, so naturally I had to choose this one.

This time the system was upgraded, and Feeney also found many interesting things in its mall, such as basilisk eggs.

Yes, it is the one that was hatched from the egg by the toad. There are also rumors that it was hatched from the male egg. There are many opinions. After all, the magic world has not allowed hatching of basilisks since a long time ago. The reason is as mentioned above. As it happened, the wizards who hatched the basilisk died in the mouth of the basilisk, and then the basilisk starved to death.

Seeing that Finny was unwilling to tell the source of the venom, Dumbledore stopped asking. He opened the bottle in front of Finny and slowly poured the venom into Hufflepuff's golden cup.

As the black venom slowly fell and touched the golden cup,

Black smoke began to rise from the golden cup, accompanied by a painful wail. It was a terrifying, long-lasting scream that penetrated the eardrums, causing the wizard who heard the sound to feel panicked, have a severe headache, and even have an urge to commit suicide.

As the sound gradually disappeared, a huge head made of black smoke rushed out of the golden cup and rushed towards Finny and Dumbledore.

Neither of them felt panicked when they saw this, because the smoke dissipated before it even touched them.

Vaguely, Feeney saw a noseless figure twisting and struggling, waving his arms, and screaming. He knew that it was the mysterious man, and this picture was actually that of the mysterious man. A trace of residual thoughts emitted from the soul fragment when it died.

Eventually everything calmed down, and then the golden cup emitted a hissing burning sound and a faint black smoke under the action of the basilisk's venom. Of course, this black smoke was not the product of the soul being burned, but the golden cup being burned. products of burning,

This venom is so powerful and terrifying.

Seeing this, Dumbledore hurriedly took out another large-mouth container and poured out every drop of the venom in the golden cup. Then he used magic to confirm that there was no remaining venom on the golden cup, and then handed the golden cup to Finny.

As for the venom, it was corrupted by Dumbledore.

After all, this thing is so rare. There are only written records in the wizarding world now. It's hard to see the real thing. As an alchemist and potions master, Dumbledore naturally has to study it carefully.

When Finny left with the golden cup, he did not forget to remind Dumbledore to be careful not to be poisoned by the venom.

Just when the venom touched the golden cup, he felt a tremor in his soul, as if something cracked but did not break. This made him feel flustered, as if there was a kitten in front of him. The heart is constantly running, spinning, and jumping.

He has an urge to return to the old castle where the elders of the Black family live and question the elders. Although this impulse is completely unreasonable, because if there is really something wrong with Finny's soul, those elders won't even think about it. What a good idea.

However, the wizard itself is a very metaphysical existence, not to mention that Feeney has also awakened his vision. Intuition and impulse are often signs of some kind of prophecy, as well as spiritual reminders.

Therefore, Feeney decided to go to the castle to find the elders at the end of this semester. If possible, he also wanted to perform a second blood sublimation ceremony. Although he knew that was impossible, he still wanted to Go give it a try.

After getting the gold cup, Finny took advantage of the fact that Christmas was not over yet, so he didn't delay at all. After leaving Dumbledore's office, he directly summoned Puff and let it take him back to the weird cave.

After searching carefully on the sculpture on the right, I finally found a very shallow groove.

The size of the groove is exactly the same as the base of the gold cup.

So, Feeney put the gold cup up,

Then,

nothing happens,

,,,,,,,,,

After waiting for a while, Feeney was sure that nothing had happened. This so-called opening method, mechanism, etc. had nothing to do with the sculpture and the golden cup!

Therefore, Feeney wasted the Horcrux that he had exchanged for next year, and even wasted a whole day.

Finny was very unwilling. He found the cave with great effort, cleared out the centaur tribe outside the cave that was hostile to house elves, cleaned up the cave, found the sculpture, and asked Dumbledore to bring back the golden cup and clean it with venom. The mysterious man’s soul fragment on the golden cup,

As a result, he was told that the gold cup was useless and that this was not the location of the treasure of Hufflepuff heritage, which made him unwilling to accept it.

Unwilling to do so, Feeney's eyes turned red and he frantically looked up and down at the details he had overlooked on the two sculptures.

After flying up and down for a while, the sculpture was almost removed and smashed.

Feeney finally discovered a detail that he hadn't noticed before.

There is liquid in the golden cup of the sculpture on the left. Of course, it is still a stone sculpture, but the Hufflepuff golden cup he just brought is empty.

Therefore, would it be possible to open the secret room by filling the golden cup with this liquid?

You know, what is this liquid?

Or can any liquid be used?

This is another head-scratching discovery. There are so many things about this Hufflepuff. Like Ravenclaw, it is simply necessary to be able to keenly sense the traces of magic and know alchemy.

Gryffindor, as long as you have enough courage and a certain amount of wisdom, it doesn't matter if you are not a fool.

Although I haven't gone to Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets yet, I think the test method is nothing more than blood purity.

After that, there were so many things going on in Hufflepuff’s Chamber of Secrets.

In fact, this was just Feeney's illusion. You know, whether it was Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets or Gryffindor's Chamber of Secrets, he did not proceed in the normal order and jumped directly to the last step. Only then will it feel simple.

Looking at the empty gold cup, Feeney suddenly thought of something and said to Puff,

"Puff, take the golden cup and go under the kitchen of Hogwarts. It is the burial place of the house elves of Hogwarts, and it is also the place where the house elves candles of Hogwarts are refined. You go there and fill the gold cup with the house-elf corpse oil and bring it back."

Feeney guessed that since Hufflepuff's heritage was all about food and house elves, could the corpse oil under the kitchen be the answer?

After a while, Puff came back. The result was of course obvious. The answer was not this. The stone wall and the sculpture were still unresponsive.

You can guess it if you think about it. After all, this sculpture is a dining table, and the sculptures on it are all food. However, Feeney's guess is that he used corpse oil. That person would put such a kind of food in a pile of food. The things extracted from corpses and used for lighting are still placed in the food containers.

Just think about it and you know it's impossible.

In fact, Feeney was too anxious, otherwise he would have thought of it, but now he is a little irritable because of the secret room and inheritance.

In such an irritable mood, it is impossible to think normally, and it is impossible to see such a conspicuous reminder.

In fact, there is another thing that Feeney did not notice, that is, there are some details on the liquid in the sculpture on the left.

Moreover, Feeney has also awakened his sight and can divine the correct way to open it.

I just noticed that the previous title serial number was wrong. After 209, it was directly 300. However, the title cannot be changed, so I have to do this. I'm sorry. Of course, it won't delay everyone's viewing. It's just that the serial number looks a bit annoying.
