In This Hogwarts Without a Savior Chapter 293

  Chapter 293 291. The corridor in the ice and snow

  Fine pieces of ice floated from the ground, making irregular movements in mid-air, at the moment when the basilisk locked its body tightly and rushed out.

  Jon also suddenly rolled to the left!

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud noise of heavy objects colliding with each other in the narrow passage. Jon leaned against the cold and solid wall, and after stabilizing his body, he read out towards the place where the ice chips were emptied. spell!

   "Shenfeng Wuying!"

  The invisible sharp blade appeared in the air almost a second after his spell fell, and the cold air flow seemed to be cut by a huge blade!

   Soon, a sharp weapon pierced into the flesh and roared!

The stinky blood splashed out like sludge trampled out of a mud pit, and even a lot of the viscous liquid was splashed on Jon's face, but the unbearable stench did not stop him. The dodge action at the next moment.

  The basilisk with a big cut in its soft belly twisted its body crazily, and its steel-like tail left clear marks on the surrounding solid ice.

   The floating ice chips gave Jon a more direct sense of the surrounding things than seeing with eyes.

  So at the moment when the basilisk went mad, Jon's body was light and nimble like a monkey, and he dodged to the original place after a few jumps.

   Then aiming at the direction he was in just now, he raised his wand again without hesitation!

"Avada Kedavra!"

  The miserable green filled with dead silence instantly illuminated the entire dark space, and the beam representing death shot out from the tip of the chestnut wand!

  The basilisk clearly felt the breath of death. It roared even more frantically, trying to twist its body so that its whole body was attached to the ice surface on the far right, so as to avoid the killing curse.

  However, the severe pain caused by the wound on the abdomen severely slowed down its reaction nerves!

When the command to dodge came from its mind, and the second half of its body had successfully deflected to the right, the Killing Curse spanned a short distance of less than ten meters in an instant, and hit the basilisk monster's huge body. Snakehead!

The deadly earth-brown snake eyes lost all signs and emotions representing the existence of life after the killing curse was hit. Then, a "bang" sounded, and the huge body fell powerlessly on the ice, only Leave a mess all over the place.

  Jon gasped heavily, but he didn't act rashly. Instead, he continued to use the floating spell, controlling more ice chips to float around, so as to help him clearly perceive the situation in front of him that he couldn't see.

   After observing from any place, even though some ice shards fell on the heart of the basilisk, but did not get the slightest feedback, Jon breathed a sigh of relief, and took off the black cloth that blindfolded his eyes.

   Now he can finally see the true face of this basilisk.

Its body is the same as the one in Hogwarts, and it is also extremely huge, as long as thirty or forty feet. The scales on its body are also bright emerald green, and its abdomen is as long as half an adult. The stinky blood stopped flowing.

  This snake is not malnourished at all, or has some strange mutations, and it looks like it can resist cold.

   Such a discovery made Jon's doubts even more difficult to explain, so why is there a basilisk in this maze at the North Pole? Did Voldemort or someone else put the snake in?

  But of course he didn't have the extra energy to think hard about this issue. After calling out Gabriel who was hiding in the ice above, they began to look for Nick on the ground full of broken ice and blood.

   Soon Gabriel found something in a corner.

Nick's whole body seemed to be frozen, and his face still maintained the expression of horror after seeing the basilisk. His original illusory body was as hard as a sculpture. respond.

  The little girl cried out sadly.

   "Jon! Nick is dead!"

  Jon followed her voice and walked over, patting her on the head.

   "He was already dead, and it is impossible to die again. Don't worry, he is only temporary now, and it won't be long before we go out and ask the professors to prepare an antidote with Mandrake, and he will return to his original state."

Jon didn't lie to Gabrielle. It is indeed impossible for the ghost to be killed by something again. Even an instant death that is as strong as the eyes of the basilisk will only make him fall into a state of petrification. As for how long it will take for them to leave here, let Nick In order to get rid of this situation, this was not something Jon could have predicted in advance.

   Of course, they certainly wouldn't just leave Nick here.

   It is estimated that no one in the entire magic world can tell what the petrified ghost belongs to, but the levitating spell that Jon used on Nick has achieved its effect.

  His already stiff body was relieved a lot, and then with the help of Gabriel, Jon strapped Nick to his back.

   This didn't put much pressure on him, it just made him less flexible in action than before.

  After that, Jon didn't leave immediately. Even though the battle just now caused a lot of commotion and no one knew if there were any Death Eaters attracted to the maze, he still started to collect his spoils from the basilisk.

  How can there be a reason not to pick up equipment after killing monsters?

  He couldn't take away things that were too big, and he didn't let go of anything that could be taken away.

He found two more snake teeth that looked pretty good. Following the opening made by Shenfeng Wuying, Jon took out a fist-sized tooth from the snake's belly, which looked like snake gallbladder. thing. Then he gouged out the two eyes of the basilisk, but its eyes were too big. He tried all the pockets on his body, but there was no suitable opening to stuff the two football-like eyeballs into.

Since he couldn't take it away, Jon didn't want to leave this thing to the Death Eaters. He simply used the Smashing Curse to blow up the eyeballs and other things he couldn't take away, and directly smashed the snake corpse that was still intact. It was chopped into a meat paste.

   Such a **** process, he naturally didn't let Gabriel watch it. After all the hands and tails were packed, Jon carried the petrified Nick on his back and took Gabriel forward.

   Without Nick's wayfinding in advance, Jon moved forward more cautiously.

  After passing through an intersection, they encountered a new fork, and Gabriel was still allowed to make a choice, while Jon left a shallow mark on the ice on one side before leaving.

  After walking along the road chosen by Gabriel for about ten minutes, they then encountered an intersection that was exactly the same as the previous one, and beside this intersection was obviously the mark that Jon left just now.

   This discovery made Jon frowned slightly.

But he didn't say much, he just took Gabrielle to another road, and they continued towards the road in the middle of the three-way road, but they still walked for more than ten minutes, and they returned to that intersection again. forward.

  Gabriel's face was full of surprise.

   "Are we at a dead end?"

  Jon frowned even tighter. Instead of answering Gabriel's words, he led her down the last road that hadn't been taken yet.

   But the result remained the same, it was still more than ten minutes away, and in the end they returned to this fork in the road.

   Now there is no way for them to try again.

   Gabriel's face was full of surprise. She floated around the ice layer up and down the side road, but found nothing.

  Jon walked back a few steps in thought, turned a corner, and saw the puddle of minced meat still scattered on the ground.

  The road he just killed the basilisk is connected to the fork they are in now, that is to say, if they want to go to this fork, they must pass the corpse of the basilisk.

  But just now they walked back along three different roads, but they didn't see the body of the basilisk. Instead, they saw it when they returned from here.

   This made Jon suspicious.

  He grabbed Gabriel's hand, stopped her from continuing to try to cross the ice in the fork, and then held his wand and tapped around the fork.

  Finally, Jon found some clues on the two ice walls separating the three forked roads.

  When his wand hit the ice, some inconspicuous bright golden spots burst out from the moment his wand tip touched the ice.

  These light spots are very subtle. If Jon hadn't observed them carefully enough, they might have been ignored.

  After seeing the problem, he asked Gabriel to try to pass through the two ice walls, but nothing unusual happened. Gabriel floated through one side, and then floated out from the other side.

  But Jon didn't give up trying. He didn't use the wand anymore, but put on the ring and used the universal curse spell on himself.

  After that, he stretched out his left hand, and carefully touched the ice wall.

   As imagined, the supposed cold and hard touch did not come, and Jon's hand actually went straight through the wall, but it didn't stick out from the other part of the wall like Gabriel did.

   Instead, it seemed to disappear, it disappeared directly.

   This made Gabriel's eyes widen, and Jon had an unexpected expression on his face.

  He just wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect it to succeed!

  The missing hand, Jon, not only didn't feel the slightest bit of coldness, but felt warm instead.

  He took a deep breath, grabbed Gabriel's arm with his right hand, held her in his arms and enveloped her in the solution of the spell, and then the whole person passed through the ice wall.

   As if walking forward normally without encountering the slightest obstacle, Jon disappeared into the ice the next moment and appeared in a narrow and warm corridor.

There are no ice blocks in all directions here. On the left is a wall made of bricks, and on the right is a long corridor composed of four or five rooms. Above the head is a sealed ceiling with several kerosene lamps hanging from it. , a blue flame was shining in the lamp, illuminating the space.

  Gabriel looked around curiously, and Jon was also attracted by the mark left by a reptile on the ground.

  He finally understood why there are creatures like basilisks living in this area of ​​the North Pole.

   It doesn't stay in the maze carved out of ice at all. Most of the time, it should live on this corridor!

  Jon only had the answer at this time, but he didn't stop, but walked towards the room closest to him where the door was always open.

There are a lot of things inside, but they are all destroyed in sevens and eights, torn paper, tables, chairs and benches crushed by heavy objects, and things like the wreckage of a teapot, rotting clothes, etc. are scattered everywhere. Both are.

  Jon walked into the room, and he tried to pick up a few pieces of mud-covered paper from the ground, trying to learn some valuable information from them.

   But not only the handwriting on these parchments is blurred, but they are also not written in English. Jon really has no way to distinguish the words that look like Russian to him.

   Circled around this small room, and after confirming that there was nothing of value to be found, he continued to walk towards the next room.

This is also a door that was opened. It is a bit far-fetched to say that it is opened, because it is obvious through the broken wood that the door was originally locked, but half of it was forcibly destroyed, and only the upper half remained. There are rusty hinges connecting the door frame.

  Jon bowed his waist and got into the interior, and a stench came over his face. This room has a lot of space, and a bunch of things that used to look like clothes were collected together in a mess.

   There are many huge emerald green snake skins scattered around!

  After seeing these snake skins, Jon decided in his heart that the basilisk he killed must not have been brought by Voldemort.

  The amount of skin peeling like this cannot be completed in hundreds of years. This basilisk must have lived here for a long time, and this room is still regarded as its own nest.

   Enduring the stench, Jon also searched here, but still found nothing of value.

   Without stopping, he continued to the next room.

The situation in the third room is more concise and clear. This is a dilapidated house. Half of the wall facing the door in the room has collapsed, exposing a large layer of ice. Animals trapped in ice.

  Many of them are bears and wolves, and there are some strange-looking creatures, which are obviously extinct animals in the current world.

Most of this ice layer has been violently chipped away. Of course, these are the results of the basilisk. The room is full of bones of all kinds. Obviously, it relies on these animal corpses in the ice as food. It survived, and this room is its canteen.

  After receiving this information, Jon immediately went to the last room on this corridor.

   The door of this room was not damaged and was locked, but before entering, Jon saw the nameplate hanging on the door, and he was stunned.
