I was a Master of Fantastic Beasts at Hogwarts

Chapter 153: Slytherin’s Chamber of Secrets [Subscription, Support].

“By the way, regarding the attack on the Chamber of Secrets, we also found that it actually happened fifty years ago, and the little wizard I met last time the Basilisk came out of the cage was not as good as Lady Loris, but he was killed by looking at the Basilisk!”

“It’s the crying myrtle in the girls’ bathroom, right?”

Li Xuan took Penelope’s words, the other party did not expect Li Xuan to understand so well, and he was a little surprised for a while, but then he thought that Li Xuan seemed to be a mysterious and omniscient, so he was not surprised.

After all, this kind of mystery and erudition in Li Xuan is also a charm that belongs to him alone, so that Penelope cannot escape his whirlpool.

Li Xuan and Penelope are now in the Requirement Room, so there are only three of them in the entire room, Li Xuan thought for a while, or planned to tell Hermione and Penelo about the secret room from beginning to end.

“I don’t know how much you know about the Chamber of Secrets, but I’ll tell you what I know.”

Hearing Li Xuan’s words, Hermione and Penelope were energetic, indeed as Li Xuan said, what they understood was only to show that there was a record, and there was no systematic and comprehensive understanding.

“Regarding the Chamber of Secrets, in fact, the earliest record was in the ninth hundred AD, when Hogwarts was just established, at that time, the situation of wizards was extremely bad, especially in the Muggle world, regarded as heretics, and countless wizards were brutally killed.”

For this reason, the four talented wizards at the time made the decision to open a wizarding training school away from Muggle society, not only for themselves, but also for the future of wizards not to be oppressed.

These four wizards are also very clear to you, and the school is divided into four houses under the names of the four founders, Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin.

Later, Salazar disagreed with the other three founders, believing that Hogwarts should only recruit pure-blood wizards, and that half-blood and Muggle-born wizards were not eligible to enter Hogwarts.

Of course, this idea was opposed by others, and the conflict gradually intensified, and in the end, Salazar still cared about his friendship with Godric and left the school on his own initiative.

“But before Salazar left, he built a secret room in the castle and claimed that only his heirs would be able to open the secret room, release the horrible things inside, and let it purify the school and rid it of all those who were not worthy of learning magic.”

“All terrifying things are basilisks, and people who are not worthy of learning magic are wizards of non-pure-blood origin?!”

In connection with what Li Xuan said, as well as the information she had found and what had happened in the past few days, Hermione straightened out this line. Penelo on the side nodded approvingly, although she did not speak, her mind was no slower than Hermione’s.

“That’s right, the basilisk is that terrifying existence, and there is nothing more suitable as a tool for the elimination plan than a basilisk that can kill people at a glance.”

“It’s also true, if I were Salazar, I would also choose a creature like a basilisk.”

Penelo opened his mouth and said, thinking of the ability of the basilisk, the basilisk, a magical animal that has been artificially bred, is indeed the most suitable, and there is no one.

First of all, even if the basilisk was born from a male egg hatched by a toad, he is still essentially a snake, so he can communicate with Salazar, who has a parseltongue voice, and Salazar is able to instill his own ideas into the other person’s head.

Secondly, the talent of parseltongue is passed down through bloodline, which is very in line with Salazar’s requirements, that is, it must be his heir, even if time has passed.

And the Achilles heel of the basilisk will only be subject to the restraint of parseltongue in addition to the cry of the rooster, which is simply tailored for Salazar!

Finally, there is the habit and lifespan of the basilisk, if there is enough food, the life of the basilisk will be very long, just like the basilisk in Helbo, wizards are recognized as living for nine hundred years.

And this one in the Hogwarts Slytherin Chamber of Secrets is even older, at least a thousand years old.

As long as the food is sufficient, the life span of the basilisk can be said to be the top in Fantastic Beasts, after all, snakes also have a habit, that is, dormancy, in the dormant state, the body’s consumption is smaller and less.

And the parseltongue cavity can also allow the basilisk to enter a deep sleep, in this state, the growth state of the basilisk will be forcibly prevented and enter a state of suspended animation.

Therefore, in theory, as long as each successor of the secret room wakes up the basilisk, allows it to eat, kills and executes the elimination plan, and then locks it back in the secret room to let it sleep, it can be passed down for at least thousands of years.

More time Salazar did not dare to guarantee, after all, any power is not worth mentioning in the face of time, whether there will still be Salazar at Hogwarts thousands of years later, and the same is true for Gryffindor.

So a basilisk that can live for a thousand years, or even two thousand years, is enough!

Li Xuan continued to talk about the Chamber of Secrets: “Fifty years ago, Voldemort, that is, Tom Riddle, in the fifth year, knew that he was a descendant of Salazar Slytherin, and discovered his talent for parseltongue, opened the Chamber of Secrets and released the Basilisk. ”

Using the basilisk to create multiple attacks and kill a girl, the crying myrtle. Blame it on Hagrid, saying that Hagrid’s pet, the eight-eyed giant spider, made it straight.

The Ministry of Magic could not find relevant evidence, and finally had to arrest Hagrid, and the eight-eyed giant spider Aragog was released by Hagrid into the Forbidden Forest, and the eight-eyed giant spider group in the Forbidden Forest is now the descendants of Aragog.

“Hagrid was also expelled from Hogwarts, and in the end, it was Dumbledore who vouched for Hagrid, which also proved that Hagrid was indeed not the murderer of Myrtle, but it was not without cost, such as Hagrid could no longer enter Hogwarts to study, could not have his own wand, and so on.”

Hermione and Penelo did not expect that the opening of the Chamber of Secrets at Hogwarts fifty years ago was actually done by the second-generation Dark Lord Voldemort, and it also involved Dumbledore, Hagrid and Myrtle, and Voldemort was still very shameful to blame everything on Hagrid, poor Hagrid, so for Voldemort!

But it’s normal, this matter was not found out in the first place, Li Xuan knew it by knowing the plot, otherwise the truth would only be known after the remnant soul hidden in the diary by Tom Riddle in the future told this matter.
