HP Approaches the Magic World

Let's not talk about Stephen's current mood state. Jon doesn't know how to help him adjust, so he can only work without talking.

He has great confidence in Stephen and believes that this guy can adjust himself well and there is no need for him to worry about it.

He could only think so. After all, he was not good at comforting people. Sometimes, if he couldn't say a word well, it would be easy to push other people's emotions in a worse direction.

Moreover, compared with his personal emotions, he still has many things to do.

Not counting the things in ancient Egypt, there is also the basilisk that was suppressed in Shadow of Hogwarts, as well as him who is about to face an advancement and the toxins transformed from the abandoned blood in his body that need to be digested urgently.

——The closer he gets to the advanced stage, the more toxins there are in his body.

Stephen had other things to do, so he didn't stay here any longer. When Lockhart came over in the evening, he would come over to see the professor again. After all, he did not go to class.

So between now and evening, Jon has a little over two hours to spare.

Let’s look at the basilisk first.

Jon tapped his finger, and three or two books on the bookshelf jumped up and flew to his side.

This is not a flying curse, it is just a little trick Grindelwald taught him, but it is too easy to use in his own field.

"The basilisk..."

He flipped through the book in front of him and looked at the illustrations inside.

When it comes to basilisks, you can't avoid the dark wizard named Haierbo.

Helbo was a dark wizard in ancient Greece and one of the earliest known dark wizards (at that time, dark wizards were still called evil wizards, and it was only after war magic was completely split that they were collectively called dark wizards). To this day

, much of his research still influences black magic.

This man is considered to be the first wizard to breed a basilisk. He was one of the early Parselmouths and was famous for it. In addition, he also invented many evil curses and became the first to successfully create a Horcrux.

wizard.

Jon fiddled with his fingers and found another book.

This book was borrowed from the library. Before leaving school last year, he borrowed many books from the library and later returned them, leaving only a few books that he did not take back.

This book is one of them, recording a little story about the basilisk.

"In our country, there are many terrible beasts and monsters wandering around. The most bizarre and lethal one is the basilisk, also known as the snake king. This kind of snake can become very huge and can usually live for hundreds of years.

It is hatched from an egg and a toad. The way the basilisk kills people is very shocking. In addition to its deadly fangs, its glare can also kill people. Anyone caught by its gaze will die.

It will die immediately. The spider will run away when it sees the basilisk, because the basilisk is the deadly enemy of spiders, and the basilisk will run for its life as soon as it hears the crowing of the rooster, because the crowing of the rooster is also fatal to it."

Of course, a basilisk is not a snake. This kind of snake-like creature is more like a basilisk. However, lizards and snakes have a lot in common, so both creatures are controlled by Parselmouth - this

This kind of innate magic is actually not that rare, but anything associated with snakes will make people think it is scary.

"The basilisk can grow up to 50 feet long, with dark green skin and yellow eyes. The basilisk's eyes can instantly kill any person or animal that makes contact with it. The surface of the basilisk's skin is covered with scales, which can deflect spells.

.Like other snakes, basilisks shed their skin regularly as they grow."

The eyes of the basilisk are the most powerful, but they are also the only weakness of the basilisk. There is nothing strange about this, it is consistent with common sense.

This kind of monster has an extremely long life, with a natural lifespan of more than 900 years. Under the control of Parselmouth, they can enter a state of suspended animation, so the Basilisk belonging to Salazar Slytherin has lived to this day - in the Western Wizarding World

Among them, apart from the mythical earthly python Jörmungandr, only the basilisk can be called the snake king.

The natural enemy of the basilisk... is a bird, but it has to be a bird of the level of a phoenix. Jon's black bird might also be counted as one - if it is a real life and not a patron saint.

But these are all appearances, not the real content. Jon is very curious about what the real background is like and why Salazar raised a basilisk. The existence of this basilisk is definitely not to harm the students in the school...

...No matter what the legendary wizard thinks, he will never attack his students.

As for something deeper, you have to ask Peeves, the principal's secretary.

"If you just called me here because of such a trivial matter, I can only say that you are too boring. What's the point? The existence of the basilisk was originally to protect the school?"

As the person who knew the most secrets in Hogwarts, Peeves could only say that he had no idea that Jon would take such care seriously.

Wasn't he busy enough? He thought that Jon was starting to get stressed out because of things happening outside?

"I'm busy, but I don't have any time to deal with things. Besides, I'm only in the third grade. There are so many things that I need to deal with. You should be more awake - and you don't have so many things to be busy with.

The principal has not been in the school recently, isn't he busy with that matter?"

That matter is what Jon's company is also busy with. Although the market has been slightly adjusted recently, Jon knows the reason best. Before the storm comes, there will always be a time of recovery.

.

But the most violent impact will not begin until half a month later. Dumbledore has been busy during this period, which is to control the movements of all parties - the American dark wizard left a lot of information for Dumbledore when he exited.

In Germany and France, none of the dark wizards lurking in the dark and the beings who protect these wizards can be easily dealt with.

Dumbledore is not Grindelwald after all.

"Besides, your so-called busyness, apart from wreaking havoc in the castle, is also going to the theater. This afternoon, Mr. Lockhart gave the first lesson to the third graders. Did you also go to see it?"

"Alright alright."

Peeves, who had been exposed, was no longer resisting. Anyway, at this time, the funny class later was no longer available. Lockhart's jokes were still very interesting. Maybe Jon would be able to listen to two more.

"If you have to ask, I can't tell you, but at the beginning, you have to understand one thing. The basilisk you are talking about is not an ordinary basilisk.

His name is Basilis Slytherin."
