efficient!
After the yellow powder exploded, the realgar powder completely covered a large area in front. The black snake summoned by "Oolong Out of the Cave!" became very anxious and instinctively wanted to stay away from the area covered by the realgar powder.
The saying that snakes hate realgar is undoubtedly correct, but I don’t know if this trick will work on basilisks!
Although the basilisk is also a snake, it is a very dangerous dark creature after all. No one dares to treat a basilisk as an ordinary snake, otherwise they will definitely lose their life.
Albert gently waved his wand, turning the black snake hiding in the corner into a cloud of smoke. Then he walked to the table, picked up the metal box, and put away the remaining snake repellent bullets made of realgar powder.
By the way, remember to add something next time, it is best to make it so that the basilisk cannot open its eyes. If you can really do this, you can eliminate the threat posed by the basilisk's eyes.
That’s a good idea. I’ll write it down first.
After closing the notebook, Albert closed his eyes, and the fireplace in the room disappeared. Many windows suddenly appeared around the room. The sunlight shone in from the window glass, instantly dispelling the dim and gloomy atmosphere in the room.
Albert immediately opened all the windows and used magic to roll out all the realgar powder in the room.
Realgar is poisonous. If you accidentally poison yourself with it, you would be very unlucky.
Albert stood by the window, lifted the bubble head spell on his head, took a deep breath, looked at the students playing and laughing in the sunshine in the courtyard outside, and couldn't help but sighed: "Humans are really forgetful creatures."
The attack happened not long ago, but everyone has forgotten about it.
I really don’t know what their expressions will be when the attack happens again.
It must be interesting!
Now my plan has gradually become more complete.
It won’t be long until the day comes to close the door and release Tom.
An owl flew into the Room of Requirement through the window, landed on the desk next to the window, and threw a thick letter on the table.
It looked around and saw that Albert had no food. It cried out tiredly and quickly flapped its wings and flew away.
“So realistic.”
Albert picked up the envelope and found that the letter was from Louise and was written in English. It must be said that the beautiful French girl was getting better and better in English.
Albert didn't rush to open the letter. Instead, he put it in his pocket, tidied the room carefully, and got up and left.
When turning the corner, Albert almost bumped into the hurried Hermione. Miss Granger seemed relieved when she saw Albert.
"You're here. I've been looking for you for a long time." Without waiting for him to speak, Hermione reached out and grabbed Albert's hand and pulled him into a secret classroom.
"I know, I know everything. How did that ugly big snake hide itself?" Hermione was trembling all over, not knowing whether she was excited or nervous.
"What did you find?" Albert asked directly.
"Pipelines. There are many pipes in the school. They are connected in all directions. The basilisk must be moving quickly in the school through the pipes, so everyone..."
At this moment, Hermione's voice stopped abruptly. She saw Albert made a hushing gesture to her and raised his hand to point to the corridor outside the classroom. Nick, who was almost headless, walked through the wall. When he saw the two of them, he was stunned for a moment, and greeted them with a smile, "Sorry, I hope I didn't disturb your date."
"We didn't..." Hermione's cheeks turned red instantly when she was misunderstood. She seemed to want to refute, but was interrupted by Albert.
"What's up?"
Albert looked at the ghost in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly, "You just overheard it."
"I wasn't eavesdropping, it was just an accident." Nick, who was almost headless, was stared at by Albert for a few minutes, and finally compromised, "Okay, I think I heard you talking about the secret room just now."
"A guess!"
Albert said to Nick: "We think the monster in Slytherin's chamber is some kind of giant snake. It is said that there is a kind of king snake that can live for thousands of years."
"You mean there's a big snake roaming around in the castle?" Nick's eyes widened as he murmured in disbelief. "But, I've been in school for so long, and I've never encountered what you call a king snake. If the king snake is big, it would be impossible for it not to be discovered. Sorry, I'm not..."
"This is just speculation." Albert reminded calmly: "It's best not to let others know. It might cause panic. After all, no one wants a big snake around them."
"Did Dumbledore know?" Nick asked. "He asked us to keep an eye on the castle."
"I think Headmaster Dumbledore should think so too. He may just need to find the prisoner and the location of the Chamber of Secrets." Albert talked about his analysis.
"A giant snake that has lived for a thousand years sounds a bit ridiculous. If it is true, it would be too scary. However, if the monster in Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets is a giant snake, it makes sense." Nick muttered to himself and floated away.
"Your sense of confidentiality is still very poor!"
After watching Nick drift away, Albert turned around and said to Hermione beside him, "This will hurt you sooner or later."
"Does Dumbledore really know?" Hermione asked again. She had heard Albert say similar things more than once.
"You can go to Headmaster Dumbledore, or tell Potter your speculation and let him go to the Headmaster to tell him about these things." Albert paused, thought for a moment and continued, "The latter possibility is not high. I think Potter may lack the courage to take the initiative to confess the truth."
"Confess what?"
"the truth."
"The truth?" Hermione asked in surprise.
"Yes, the truth." Albert said, "Potter would definitely not want to risk his secrets with others. Even I have secrets that I don't want to tell."
"So where do you think the Chamber of Secrets is?" Hermione wisely changed the subject.
"Underground!" Albert said without hesitation, "Slytherin likes to go underground. Don't forget, their common room is underground."
Hermione thought Albert's remark about Slytherins burrowing underground was apt, but it was undoubtedly true.
"I actually guessed the pipe you mentioned, but the question is where is the entrance to the pipe?" Albert asked back, "You should know that Fred and George know a lot of secret passages in the castle. If there are many such places, it is impossible that they have not discovered them. Therefore, there must be only one entrance, and it is very secret. It may require the use of Parseltongue to open it, otherwise it is impossible that no one has opened it for 50 years. Of course, these are all my guesses, but I think it is not difficult for the headmaster to guess these things."
"I'm going to find Harry." Hermione said and hurried away.
