Journey to the Wizarding World of Hogwarts

Chapter 168 How to Enter the Secret Room

Robert was in the kitchen for a reason.

An overly long basilisk lives in the castle. Even if Mr. Slytherin uses some method similar to hibernation to reduce its activity, its appetite will not be reduced.

The rats and bats that occasionally sneak into the secret room cannot satisfy its appetite. They are just enough to eat as snacks. How to keep this basilisk full and prevent it from biting people everywhere in the castle is a very important matter. .

Robert thinks there are two possibilities.

One is that the secret room has other exits, not limited to a certain bathroom. If the big snake is hungry, it can go out from there and hunt on its own.

The other is the kitchen. The little wizards produce a lot of kitchen waste every day, which will definitely keep the basilisk from getting too hungry.

There must be other exits to the secret room, otherwise in a closed environment, even a powerful basilisk would have to suffocate itself to death. But where the exit is, Robert is not in the mood to find it. According to his observations, there is a high probability of that exit. In the Forbidden Forest.

The last time he went to the Forbidden Forest for a night trip, he was surrounded by Acromantulas. If he hadn't decisively upgraded his skills, he might have been doomed. Thinking about the lost skill points, Robert felt sad.

It’s better not to run around. Although Acromantulas are highly aggressive, poisonous, and cannibalistic, they are not the most powerful group in the forest. If they encounter a group of unicorns or a group of centaurs, they will not be able to defend themselves. The magic circle or the demon-breaking fire ring can solve the problem.

Robert still stayed away from Centaurs who were proficient in astrology.

The Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic divides magical creatures into five classes.

If you look closely, whether the creature itself is powerful is not the main premise for classification. Whether it can be easily domesticated by wizards is the premise for this classification.

In the introduction to the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", almost all high-level magical creatures have the clause "cannot be tamed by wizards", so despite the fact that the Acromantula is also at level XXXXX, it is different from unicorns, Compared to the horse people, he is really just a younger brother.

As for the tyrant in the Forbidden Forest, the manticore, that is a species on another level.

Fortunately, his Care of Magical Creatures professor was Sylvanus Kettleburn. He was also a Hufflepuff, but he liked to seek death. He even lost part of his body and replaced it with a wooden prosthetic limb. Later, he often ran to the Fire Dragon Sanctuary.

In his lifetime, he probably wouldn't come up with something like a Blast-Ended Skrewt that would make people lose their SAN value like crazy.

So to say……

He must not attend the Care of Magical Creatures course! Who knows what kind of things Hagrid would come up with to warmly entertain them, and if he accidentally killed those things, Hagrid would look at him with tearful eyes.

Thinking of the Blast-Ended Skrewt, Robert couldn't help but get excited, and gradually came to his senses. Cole was standing beside him, looking at him with concerned eyes.

Robert pressed his temples and signaled to Cole that he was fine, "By the way, Mr. Cole, do you know where the space in this trash can leads to?"

Cole shook his head, "Sorry, boss, we don't dare to check."

"Ah, Mr. Cole, you are so quick to change your name. Is there any benefit of thinking faster when you are young?" Robert complained casually, "Anyway, no one knows what is in it, right?"

Cole nodded, "That's right, this trash can was left by Mr. Slytherin. Although Ms. Hufflepuff strongly protested, she finally left it."

Robert was stunned, "So it's still an antique?"

Cole nodded.

"..." Robert said that he wanted to be quiet. The old man had simply destroyed himself for his pet snake. However, now was not the time to think about this. How to go in and investigate was the key point.

Thinking of this, Robert showed a troubled expression.

He did not learn the puppet master's method of controlling puppets. In fact, Dika only promised Mr. Chen to teach him alchemy.

Is there any better way for me to go in and check it out?

Robert suddenly felt that drones were really voyeuristic tools. If there were no restraints or anything, it would definitely give people a headache, right?

in this case……

There seems to be something called the Mage's Eye...isn't it just a voyeuristic skill?

As soon as his mind opened up, Robert thought that he seemed to have magic. He could borrow the eyes of other creatures to see things in the distance.

Just do what comes to mind.

Robert looked at Cole, "Mr. Cole, can you catch a mouse for me?"

Cole was stunned for a moment and asked blankly, "Rat?"

"Um..." Robert was dumbfounded, "Have you never seen a mouse?"

"No, no, no, how is that possible? Of course I have seen it, but..." Cole seemed to want to ask Robert what he wanted the mouse for, "This is the kitchen. If a mouse comes in..."

"Huh? Can't a mouse get in the kitchen?" Robert was really surprised. You must know that mice are pervasive. Basically, as long as they want, they can leave their own burrows anywhere. Even wizards can't do that. Go and drive them away.

Yet there are no rats in the Hogwarts kitchen?

Cole bent down slightly, "No, no, no, actually, there are a group of mice in the kitchen. Duo Duo keeps them. If you need them..."

"Forget it about pets..." Robert immediately interrupted its thoughts, "I'm using it for experiments. It would be too much if it were someone else's pet."

Cole felt embarrassed when he heard this, "This is not a pet..."

Robert, "???"

"Duoduo likes to eat rat meat, so..." Cole laughed.

So that's a food reserve? !

Robert slapped his forehead, "I just have a question..."

Cole asked curiously, "Excuse me, boss, do you have any questions?"

Robert had a serious look on his face and said in a serious tone, "Does it like to dip baby rats in chili sauce and eat them raw?"

"???" Cole asked with a question mark on his forehead, "Um, what kind of weird way is that to eat them? Besides, baby rats don't have much meat, so why do they eat baby rats?"

"Ah ha ha ha..." Robert wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead and said awkwardly, "It's nothing, I'm just a little curious."

This way of eating is very challenging to human nerves and will leave a psychological shadow on both those who watch it and those who try it.

If the taste of the house elf named "Dodo" was really so unique, Robert didn't know how to face it.

Will I have to go around the kitchen from now on?

Not long after, Cole came over with a mouse in his arms. It was small, all black, with small eyes that moved around, and it looked very smart.

If he hadn't known that Peter Pettigrew had been captured in Azkaban, Robert would have thought it was Peter.

After reciting a spell, Robert gained the mouse's vision, threw it into the trash can, covered the trash cover thoughtfully, and waited for it to be teleported away.
