Marvel's Hogwarts Professor

Hogwarts, Slytherin Chamber of Secrets.

Deep in the underground water pipes, there is a slightly dim underground palace.

At the edge of the palace, tall and thick stone pillars topped the surrounding area.

On the floor of the palace, large areas of accumulated water were visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, in the center of the palace floor, a huge python or basilisk looked up and stared ahead.

The huge eyes of the basilisk emit a faint yellow light, but it is vaguely visible. What seems to be blocking something like glass?

On the head of the basilisk, a handsome man with blond hair stood on it, as if observing the various complex patterns on the nearby stone pillars.

At this moment, Lockhart was observing the densely packed ancient runes on the stone pillars with great interest.

Amazement flashed in his eyes, and the more he observed, the more he discovered that Slytherin definitely had profound knowledge in the field of alchemy.

Every stone pillar here can be considered a magic item.

These stone pillars are scattered all around, acting as pillars. They seem to be suppressing something, or calling for something?

It can even be said that if the stone pillars are destroyed on a large scale, the entire Slytherin Chamber will further collapse.

After observing for a while, Lockhart passed the contract and asked the basilisk to slowly lower its head and touch the ground.

Soon, Lockhart jumped lightly and stepped on the marble floor of the palace.

Stepping on some stagnant water, I walked towards a mural deep inside a stone pillar.

After a brief look at the content on the mural, Lockhart discovered that, in addition to content closely related to Slytherin, there were also scenes related to the creation of Hogwarts between him and his three friends.

Moreover, according to the content on the mural, it is found that the relationship between the three is quite good.

As for what happened next, why did the four of them separate?

Some people say it's because of blood, some people say it's because of dark magic. For the specific reason, I can only ask Slytherin himself.

Lockhart could only discover through the mural that the four of them had a good relationship.

Therefore, this secret room should have been built during a period when the relationship between the founders of Hogwarts was relatively harmonious.

The thought flashed across his mind, and Lockhart opened the Parseltongue Book in his hand, recalling in his mind the method of unlocking it described by the punished Tom.

Gently click on the set of words above, and soon, a hoarse, eerie voice comes from the book.

"Hiss. Hiss, hiss, hiss. (In the name of Slytherin, open the Chamber of Secrets)"

boom!

Under Lockhart's gaze, as if receiving some order, the mural suddenly moved to both sides, revealing a dark corridor.

As Lockhart waved the magic wand, a ball of light entered the corridor, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the surrounding area.

However, the corridor does not seem to be short, or it could be said that the space extension spell was cast.

This surprised Lockhart slightly.

Then

"Basilisk, shrink your body and go in to explore the way."

Lockhart stretched out his hand and touched the contract, conveying his intention like a basilisk.

He is not stupid, Slytherin is a famous dark wizard, although Tom said there is no danger.

But he didn't verify anything and just believed what Voldemort said. That was really stupid.

sand! sand! sand!

Under Lockhart's gaze, the basilisk's huge body began to shake, and its size began to slowly shrink.

After a while, it was reduced to at least half, and its size could easily enter the corridor, and there was even a lot of room to spare.

Seeing this, Lockhart nodded slowly and waved his hand to enter the corridor to explore the way for him.

The basilisk can shrink its body. This is a talent that was only discovered after signing the contract.

However, basilisks generally do not shrink their bodies, and it is most comfortable for them to maintain their original bodies.

Only in very special circumstances will it actively shrink, such as escaping for life.

Of course, if there was an order from Lockhart, it would be a different matter.

After a moment, Lockhart raised his eyebrows slightly. He discovered that the basilisk was really undamaged, as if there were no traps, and he also discovered a spacious space.

It seems that Tom, who has been punished, is a good boy!

Lockhart nodded slightly, waved his wand, and the ball of light poured into the dark tunnel again, followed closely by Lockhart.

With every step he took, the ball of light would move forward, keeping Lockhart's vision bright.

The environment in the corridor is different from that outside.

The outside may be connected to underground water pipes, so there is a lot of water.

Although the corridor has a musty smell, it is very dry.

tread! tread! tread!

As Lockhart walked step by step deeper into the corridor, he soon came to the spacious space indicated by the basilisk. To be precise, it was a spacious stone chamber.

but

The stone statue that Tom was talking about did not exist. On the contrary, in front of Lockhart, it was just a normal square with a huge picture scroll hanging on it.

On the scroll, it was Slytherin himself wearing dark green wizard robes.

What makes Lockhart feel strange is that, if he guessed correctly, this scroll should have experienced nearly a thousand years of baptism, but it still looks like new.

In the process of his thinking.

suddenly

boom!

The entrance to the palace outside suddenly closed, while a dark green light curtain quietly emerged at the entrance to the stone chamber.

It was as if no one was allowed to go out.

Sensing this scene, Lockhart looked a little ugly and subconsciously picked up his wand.

At the same time, call the Basilisk to keep him on the offensive.

sand! sand! sand!

The basilisk's body twisted slightly and made a rustling sound when it rubbed against the ground.

He raised his head, shook the snake head slightly, and spit out the snake letter, as if he was sensing something or preparing for something.

"What should I call you? Mr. Portrait, or Mr. Slytherin."

Lockhart looked closely at the strange portrait in front of him and asked warily.

The most abnormal thing about the entire stone chamber is this seemingly brand-new portrait.

Who would believe it if they say there is no problem?

"Hiss, hiss (little snake, lie down, don't move)"

The moment Lockhart finished speaking, a hoarse, gloomy, strange and evil voice came from the portrait - it was the voice of Parseltongue.

After hearing this, the basilisk struggled a little, and then slowly lowered its head.

When Lockhart heard this, a sneer flashed across his face, and he whispered the contract, stimulating the basilisk to wake up.

In an instant, the basilisk raised its head again, spitting out snake messages, and made an offensive appearance towards the portrait.

He knew that Parseltongue was unreliable. In other words, it was too unreliable.

So much so that anyone with a Parseltongue can control a basilisk.

Thoughts flashed, Lockhart waved his wand, and a fireball quietly appeared in the sky, spinning constantly and emitting hot sparks from time to time.

Lockhart shook his wand, and the fireball moved in the air, as if threatening something.

"Students of Rowena, don't worry, I have no ill intentions."

Under Lockhart's gaze, the Slytherin on the portrait slowly spoke.

And he glanced at the fireball floating in front of him, turning a blind eye to it, as if he wasn't worried at all.

Lockhart's face was expressionless when he saw this.

He didn't say much, he just infused the magic power slightly to make the fireball hotter.

At the same time, his voice was flat and boring, and he repeated again: "Please answer my question."

"What should I call you? Mr. Portrait, or Mr. Slytherin."
