In This Hogwarts Without a Savior Chapter 77

  Chapter 77 76. King of Snakes

  The principal's office on the eighth floor actually has two entrances.

  One is right in front of Jon, and the other is on the third floor, but the entrance on the third floor has been completely sealed off, leaving only this one on the eighth floor.

  Different from other classrooms or offices, the principal's room has a large door, and there are two doors like a castle gate.

  At this moment, the door was tightly closed, and Jon carefully approached the door. Instead of reaching out to push, he put his ear close to the door.

   It was very quiet, almost the same as the current Hogwarts Castle, but for some reason, although Jon didn't hear any sound, he could smell a faint fishy smell.

   This smell is not strong, probably blocked by the door, but the stench is so clear through the crack of the door, making him very clear that this is not his own illusion.

Jon put his hand on the door on the left, which was not locked. It seemed that Snape and Dolohov had issued strict orders to all the students, but there was no actual protection here measure.

  He exhaled lightly, then pushed forward slightly, and pushed the door open a crack.

  Through this crack, he saw what should be the entrance hall behind the door.

There hovered a thick and long body like a bucket. The emerald green scales reflected the faint light under the dim light. It seemed to be asleep. It didn't notice Jon who quietly opened the door, coiled together The body is bobbing up and down regularly.

  Jon stared at the huge creature for a few seconds, but without seeing its head, he closed the door again.

  Nagini?

   No, this is Hogwarts Castle. If he really wants something to help him guard the principal's office, then Nagini is definitely not suitable. The most suitable one should be another snake.

  Another ancient king of snakes that does not belong to him, but obeys his orders because of his blood and the gift of snake language inherited from his ancestors—

   Basilisk!

  Jon wrapped the invisibility cloak around his body tightly, and didn't stop here. He walked lightly, and quickly turned around and walked towards the stairs.

  He finally understood why Snape and the others had been emphasizing with the students not to get close to this area of ​​the principal's office, but they didn't take any protective measures for this room.

  Since Voldemort has taken control of Hogwarts Castle, he would have released him from the Chamber of Secrets once when he was in school, and the basilisk that completely obeyed his orders would naturally be used by him.

  Let it stay in front of the principal's office, it is the best guard, and locking that door is completely superfluous.

  Back to his bedroom, Jon took off the invisibility cloak, carefully stuffed it and the wand into the inner pocket of his robe, and lay back on the bed, he began to think about the next countermeasures.

  He must go into the principal's office, and he must find a way to deal with the basilisk before entering.

As the most dangerous magical animal in the magic world, the power of the basilisk is beyond doubt. It is not only huge in size and extremely powerful, but its skin is also resistant to most spells like a dragon, and its teeth are highly poisonous. Even Voldemort's Horcruxes can't resist, the most important thing is that once its eyes meet someone's gaze, it can directly deprive the life of the watcher.

   Judging from these characteristics, fire dragons of the same level are not even worthy of carrying shoes for it in terms of aggressiveness, but this powerful man-made black magic creature also has a fatal flaw!

  It is afraid of the crowing of the rooster.

  Perhaps because it itself was born by a rooster, even the crowing sound of an ordinary rooster can be fatal to it.

   To put it simply, this is a creature with high attack and low defense. It has the ability to instantly kill the enemy, but as long as you find a suitable method, you can also kill it very easily.

It's just that in Hogwarts, roosters are not so easy to find. Voldemort must not be ignorant of this weakness of the basilisk. He must have told Snape that they would not let a rooster appear in Hogwarts. within the range of z.

   Moreover, even if he found a rooster, he had to find a suitable time to deal with the basilisk.

  The crowing of the rooster was quite loud. If it was in normal times, the sound would definitely attract others, so that even if Jon solved the basilisk, he would have no way to sneak into the principal's office again.

   Fortunately, there is still a long time left for him to solve these problems. At least he knows in advance what the guards in front of the principal's office are, so that he can make adequate preparations.

  And, if he remembers correctly, there should be an item in Hogwarts Castle that can help him in his next actions, and that item has a high probability of not being discovered yet.

  This castle seems to be full of danger everywhere, but for Jon, this may be the place he is most familiar with. After all, the entire seven stories in the original book are all around this castle.

"After the afternoon thought class, we are going to clean the castle's public bathroom, so I suggest you not eat too much at noon, Randy, you forgot that you almost vomited when you were cleaning the bathroom last time ?"

  Lunch time, looking at Jon who was eating cold sausage and dry bread, Hermione couldn't help but reminded in a low voice.

  Hearing her words, Jon also put down the last piece of dry bread in his hand. Hermione was indeed right. He almost didn't hold back when he cleaned the bathroom last time, which was the first time.

   It has been almost three weeks since he came to this castle, and he can basically see that among the students in the second grade, Hermione is the "leader" among them.

  This little girl is smart and careful, and she is always taking care of other people and the lower grade students. The children in the second grade are also willing to listen to her.

"Didn't you do this kind of job again this summer? I remember that except when you cleaned the bathroom for the first time when you were in the first grade, you were so uncomfortable and cried because of the smell there, and after you forced yourself to accept it, there was no more. Have you ever suffered?"

  The girl looked at Jon and asked a little strangely.

  Jon's heart skipped a beat, but he said without changing his face.

   "The gentleman I boarded during the summer vacation was very kind to me and didn't let me do these jobs. I was not used to it when I first returned to school, and I won't be like this after that."

  Hermione also seemed to be asking random questions without purpose. After hearing Jon's explanation, she nodded and said nothing more.

  Jon became even more vigilant in his heart. This little girl is different from other second-grade children. She can see the problem as long as she shows a little behavior that is inconsistent with the original "Smith".

  In the future, he needs to pay more attention in front of Hermione.

   Continue to write in the afternoon, and publish a chapter first in the morning
