Chapter 87: The Battle of the Serpent Spirit (4)

Both cast spells at the basilisk, undoubtedly failing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The basilisk was extremely fast, and almost instantly rushed to the second floor, Shayne and Draco hurriedly avoided it, and the basilisk didn't notice the two little ants at all. All wizards are ants to basilisks.

Xie An didn't want to go too out of line, this is the reason why Xie An knew that he didn't take the initiative during this time, he didn't know Hogwarts' attitude towards the so-called guardian candidates, maybe many wizards thought it was an honor thing, and Hogwarts needed excellent guardians. The better you perform, the better your chances in the future. But Xie An had a different idea.

Cedric Diggory rushed up and fired spells all the way, and there seemed to be some magical protective layer on the basilisk's scales, and the spell hit the snake scales like raindrops into the lake, causing a ripple.

Everyone thought that the basilisk was going to flee back to its lair, but the cunning basilisk just made a false shot, and after all the wizards pursued to the second floor, the basilisk jumped down from the second floor like a green dragon, and its huge body stirred up a cloud of dust on the ground, and the Aurors exclaimed to stop the basilisk, but it was obviously too late, and the basilisk had already reached the first floor at this time, and it was possible to rush out of the castle at any time.

"Focus on where it's wounded, quick, focus there, don't let it run!" Director Bones saw the basilisk's intentions, the basilisk was not trying to escape back to its lair, it was going to break out, it was going to break out of the castle.

The Aurors were in a commotion, all kinds of spells poured down on the basilisk like a rainstorm, the magic resistance of the snake scales was not infinite, the wizards concentrated on attacking one place, and had begun to break through the defense of the snake scales, and the basilisk began to take effective damage.

The monstrous basilisk roared and rushed down the second floor, rushing to the window on the first floor without hesitation, the Aurors clearly saw the basilisk's intentions, but there was no way to stop it for a while.

The physical strength of wizards is limited, and after a few attacks, many wizards are already out of breath, and their magic power is beginning to tighten, and at this time, the basilisk does not have the slightest intention of being tired.

"Whoa!" A huge sound sounded, the huge head of the basilisk smashed into the glass, and the noon sun outside instantly shone in, and the basilisk, which had not seen the sun for a long time, let out a strange scream, and the huge body rubbed the glass and gravel, and rushed out of the castle directly, the green scales shone dazzlingly in the sun, and the crown feathers on the basilisk's head became blood-like red.

The students on the tower saw a green python dozens of meters long rushing out of the castle and let out a chorus of exclamations, and the twins stood through the crowd, looking at the basilisk besieged by the tiny wizard below, and were speechless in shock.

"No matter how many Aurors can't kill this basilisk, how powerful is it!" Ron said as he struggled to squeeze through the crowd to reach the twins, full of surprise.

"The basilisk's spell resistance is too strong, and it can only be dealt with through transfiguration! It's a pity that Headmaster Dumbledore is not here, and his transfiguration can definitely kill the basilisk, or even transform the basilisk directly. Hermione Ginny and Harry also squeezed over, and the students were nervously and excitedly watching the battle below, the basilisk roared and screamed, and the Aurors were also doing their best to prevent the basilisk from escaping.

Petrify a wizard and then turn him into a pile of bones and bury him again, then you have killed a wizard. Such a process would not have been possible in the Muggle world in any way. Regardless of the laws of physics, Transfiguration is almost the most terrifying and magical of all magic.

"Transfiguration, can you transform the basilisk entirely?" Ron asked, puzzled.

"Of course not, you have to transform into a greatsword, spear, or other weapon to attack the basilisk directly. If you can transform into a statue guard, that's great!" Hermione and Ginny stood together, and Ginny looked extremely pale.

"What do you say, greatsword, and how do you do that?" Ron asked in surprise.

"Stupid, if you throw a sharp sword down from this height, do you think the basilisk can resist?" Hermione said unceremoniously.

"But I don't have a sword?"

"Oh my God, don't you usually listen to lectures? Haven't you heard what Professor Binns once said about the rain of swords in the fairy war?"

"Can magic still be used like this?" Ron was startled by Hermione's words, and seemed to realize what the wand in his hand was.

"What are the statue guards?" Harry stared at the Aurors and prefects below, and he saw Cedric Diggory wearing a pair of cool sunglasses and attacking the basilisk with nimble steps, if it weren't for his wizarding robes and incantations, the scene would have been as gorgeous as the light wars in the Muggle sci-fi movies Harry had seen.

"It's the statues in the school! Hogwarts is a powerful fortress of war, and those huge stone statues can move with magical powers, and they can act as the last line of defense for Hogwarts. Hermione explained. Perhaps these statues are far more sophisticated than any wizard could imagine, and they don't know how precious these statues are and how valuable magical skills they contain.

"Are you saying that the stone statues that are several meters tall that look like ordinary stones are alive?" Ron said in surprise.

"Are you listening, I've said it all, they're magical creations, created by extremely powerful wizards through complex transfiguration, and they're not alive at all. Hermione yelled at Ron, and the wizards around her looked this way.

"Then why didn't the statues attack?" asked Harry.

"I don't know, it seems to be Andrew, he's down there!" Hermione finally saw who she wanted to see.

The basilisk may not be able to adjust to the fierce sunlight outside, but it is rare to see such weather inside in winter. But the strange decoration on the crown of the basilisk's head became more vivid, as if it had turned into a jewel in the sun, and glowed with a brilliant aura.

"This monster seems to be evolving!" Xie An observed the situation as he attacked the basilisk lightly, and Draco was also standing on the periphery from afar, and the two of them were watching each other with their peripheral visions.

"Don't let it unleash its death gaze any more, get your magic ready, attack its eyes as long as it's ready to gaze!" Director Bones commanded as he attacked the basilisk.

The wizard's fierce attack had already begun to directly damage the basilisk itself, and several wounds had already appeared on its body, several scales had been blown away, green blood spurted out from the scarlet wound, and each fierce pounce of the basilisk spewed out a stream of highly poisonous blood.

At this time, the situation has gradually been controlled, the basilisk no longer seems to have the courage just now, after reaching the castle, the Aurors are more flexible, the basilisk is even more advantageous, the basilisk tried to escape cunningly several times, but was blocked by the powerful attacks of the wizards.

Professor McGonagall dodged a sweep from the basilisk's tail, and a red light struck the basilisk's back with precision, and the power of the spell exploded in the basilisk's back, a flash of green flames that doubled in size, and the basilisk's white porcelain-like bones could be faintly seen.

"Hiss-hiss!" The basilisk had completely lost its mind at this time, this was the most hurt it had suffered since it was born, even the wizard who domesticated itself had never brought such pain to himself, this group of ant-like wizards had actually hurt himself so much.

The basilisk's crown had turned completely red, emitting an eerie glow like a ruby, and the basilisk's yellow vertical eyes emitted an icy glow, and the wizard tried to attack its eyes several times, but it still seemed to have no effect.

Realizing that the basilisk was on the verge of madness, the Aurors nervously took a step back.

"Blazing fire!" Professor Gilderoy Lockhart rejoined the battlefield, his incantation in a tone with an indescribable ferocity, the red light instantly concentrating on a wound on the basilisk's body, and the green flames exploded.

"Roar!" the basilisk was completely enraged by the incomparably severe pain, its coiled body rolled violently, and the monster swept across like a rolling stone pillar with the power of the snake tail, and several tired Aurors were not dispersed in time, and were directly knocked away.

The situation became crisis in an instant. Gilderoy didn't stop attacking, he kept unleashing the fire spell like crazy, and the energy of the spell continued to attack the basilisk, and now only Gildero's voice and shadow were left in the basilisk's cold eyes.

Twisting and rolling in the hope of relieving the pain on his body, but the wizard's attacks kept bringing new wounds, and the already mad basilisk rushed towards Professor Gildero, who scattered in time despite his paleness.

"Broomsticks fly!" Gildero, who fell to the ground, did not hesitate to use the Flying Charm, and a flying broomstick flew from where he didn't want to.

It turned out that Gildelow had already thought about the way back before attacking the basilisk, but Director Bones seemed to feel that something was wrong.

Professor Gildero's wig had been thrown to the ground as he climbed on the broomstick, and at this time he could no longer care about the wizard's most charming smile, and Gildero's flew into the air without hesitation, and the second attack of the basilisk was in the air.

Gildero, who had attracted all the hatred, seemed to be a little dazed, and the basilisk did not hesitate to chase after him, and Director Bones wanted to stop Gildero from luring the basilisk away, and in the confusion, where he could tell Gildero.

The furious basilisk showed another wave of poison, and the Aurors, who wanted to stop the basilisk, had to temporarily retreat, and the basilisk took the opportunity to break out of the encirclement and chase after the wizard who hurt him the most.

The field team is big for wizards, but for such a giant beast, it is nothing at all. The people on the tower turned pale when they saw the basilisk so brave, Hermione clenched her fists and stared at Andrew's figure below, Ginny, who was standing beside her, suddenly fainted, and everyone was in a commotion.

Hagrid, who was guarding a group of first-year students, was surprised to see the basilisk wreaking havoc from afar, Hagrid likes magical creatures, but the basilisk is not a natural magical creature, it is a man-made biochemical war machine.

"Hagrid, I have a prophecy, do you want to hear it?" the Divination Professor said to Hagrid as she stood beside Hagrid, looking even smaller and thinner, as the female professor trembled all over.

"What?" Hagrid asked, confused.

"The basilisk seems to be coming towards us, and if we don't retreat, these children will be in danger!" Seeing Professor Gildelow flying crookedly in this direction, the professor of the divination class trembled and warned Hagrid.

"Oh, damn it, quick, kids, you, uh, all of you hide in my house, quick!" Hagrid realized that there were still year-old students standing around him, stunned by the basilisk, and now all petrified.

Hagrid's yelling finally brought the first grader to his senses, and he screamed and rushed to Hagrid's cabin. All the students started screaming and ran away.

"Run into the house, it's the Forbidden Forest over there!, don't crowd, don't crowd, be careful!" Hagrid yelled, hoping that the children would get into the hut as soon as possible, and the professor of the divination class had already taken out his wand and looked nervously at Gilderoy as he flew by.

Professor Gildelow seems to have very poor flying skills, and the basilisk is in hot pursuit, and after narrowly avoiding the basilisk's mouth twice, Gildelow actually crashes into the beating willow in a panic!

The beating willow didn't know if he had eyes, in short, the beating willow, who was hit by the flying broom, instantly waved his branches wildly, and Gildero's thrown meat and eight vegetables rolled down the trunk directly, and landed right on the hole under the beating willow.

At this time, the basilisk had arrived, and seeing that the pesky wizard was in front of him, he pounced without hesitation, and Gildero, knowing that life and death were at stake, tried to roll his body, and rolled into the tree hole in the last few seconds.

The basilisk was huge, and its head was even thickest in its body, and at this time, it slammed into the beating willow, almost breaking the precious tree directly. The beating willow, who had never been attacked like this, went berserk completely, and countless willow branches and branches whipped towards the whole of the basilisk like whips. ,

The basilisk was violently whipped by the branches of the beating willow, the scales were shattered, and under the severe pain, the basilisk instinctively wrapped around the beating willow, which was very huge for a wizard. But under the entanglement of the basilisk, it completely covered this magical willow tree.

When the Aurors arrived, the sound of branches breaking kept coming, and the beating willow seemed to be about to be uprooted.

"Attack it, quick! It won't leave Beater Willow now. Professor McGonagall said hurriedly.

After a brief surprise of the Aurors, they began to output with all their strength, and the basilisk was wrapped around the beating willow with all its strength at this time, and was attacked by the Aurors frantically, and the wounds continued to expand, and one of the wounds in the abdomen had exploded, and the white snake bones could be faintly seen.

Draco stood at the back with a pale face, staring at the battle ahead with no intention of joining, and Xie An stood beside him, watching the brighter and brighter crown feathers on the basilisk's head, and a bad premonition hit his heart. (To be continued.) )
