Seeing the huge corpse of the basilisk fall in front of him, Ivan finally breathed a sigh of relief, this thing is really difficult to deal with.

If he hadn't taken advantage of the basilisk to entangle with Aragog, he would have given it a ruthless blow, and the result would have been difficult to say.

Ivan couldn't help but complain about the wizard who compiled the book, and he didn't know how long it would take for the rooster to crow to kill the basilisk.

It took him five roosters to crow for several minutes before the basilisk died, and he didn't know if it was bleeding to death...

Fortunately, the crowing of the rooster was not all he relied on, otherwise he would have been killed by the person who compiled the book...

Ivan sighed, pulled out the test tube from his pocket, and collected the blood that flowed from the basilisk's wound.

[Magic Item: Basilisk Blood.]

Description: This is the blood extracted from the thousand-year-old basilisk, which contains extremely powerful activity and magic...]

Ivan stared at the information given by the system, somewhat surprised, the longer the basilisk lived, the stronger it became, resulting in the more powerful the magic in the blood.

This means that he will get even more improvement after merging!

Click.. Click...

"Thank you for saving me, wizard—" Aragog struggled to his feet as he struggled to his feet, a little weakened by the venom of the snake.

The eight-eyed giant spider is a highly venomous creature with a high resistance to toxins, but after holding on for so long, Aragog is not far from death.

It's just that it doesn't want to die, so it humbly pleads. "Do you have a cure for the snake venom on me?"

"No, I can't help it!" Ivan shook his head and said cruelly.

The only cure he knew of was the Tears of the Phoenix, but Dumbledore wouldn't save a murderous eight-eyed spider.

Even if it would, it would obviously be too late...

So it's better to wait for death with peace of mind..

Aragog was silent for a moment, then spoke suddenly. "I'm going to die, wizard... Can you do me a favor? ”

"Do you have anything to convey to Hagrid?" Ivan turned his head to look at the old giant spider and asked seriously.

"Nope! I want you to find the man who opened the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets and kill him! Aragog's words were full of murderous intent.

Aragog, who had experienced the incident of the Chamber of Secrets fifty years ago, knew very well that the basilisk had been dormant in the Chamber of Secrets, and would never appear unless it was summoned by someone else...

Thinking of this, Aragog prepared to tell the wizard in front of him everything he knew, and begged Hagrid's friend to avenge his people!

However, Aragog, who was about to speak, suddenly realized that the appearance of the other party seemed to be a little too coincidental...

Why would a wizard enter his lair in the middle of the night, or just when the basilisk attacked...

Unless...

"It's you who released the basilisk!" Aragog said with a trembling body.

The moment the words fell, an invisible blade instantly pierced through Aragog's head! The old eight-eyed spider struggled forward, and then its massive body collapsed...

Ivan put down his wand, looked at Aragog's corpse, and said again.

"You know too much!"

There was silence in the dimly lit cavern, leaving only corpses all over the floor, and Ivan looked around, hesitating what to do with it.

"Wait... How much is a bottle of eight-eyed spider's venom? Ivan touched his chin, he was pleasantly surprised, he felt as if he was going to get rich overnight!

If he remembered correctly, the venom of the eight-eyed giant spider was worth as much as sixty Galleons a bottle on the black market in Tumbledown Alley!

If it can be sold regularly, it will be as high as 100 Galleons!

After cleaning the nest, Ivan felt that it was okay to make up sixty or seventy bottles.

Coupled with the gold galleons extorted from Lockhart, Ivan suddenly found that twenty thousand galleons didn't seem to be as hard to earn as he thought....

Thinking of this, Ivan became as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and cut off all the poisonous sacs of the eight-eyed giant spider, and packed all the valuable things such as the teeth and snake skin of the basilisk.

It took a whole night to transfer some of the most valuable materials in the cave to the Room of Requirement.

Those that are too load-bearing and difficult to carry, have to give up.

Ivan finally took the two roosters that were still alive, walked out of the cave, and turned around and waved his wand to cast a spell.

"Thunderbolt Explosion!"

A loud roar rang out, and the wide cavern entrance was half blown apart, and Ivan made another shot, completely burying the nest of the eight-eyed giant spider...

"What can you do without the basilisk? Tom! Ivan looked at the collapsed hole and muttered to himself.

......

Since killing the basilisk, Ivan's tense spirit has relaxed a lot, but that doesn't mean he's stopped, he's more busy.

Because in addition to finding the Horcrux, his improved fusion potion is also about to be boiled, which means that he will soon be able to fuse the second bloodline...

Basilisk blood!

So for the rest of the day, Ivan spent almost all of his time in the Room of Need, looking at the many materials left behind by Slytherin, and improving his knowledge about blood fusion.

The understanding of the basilisk is also getting deeper and deeper...

"Basilisk is the most dangerous and powerful creature created by a wizard!" Ivan stroked the note at the end of the parchment scroll and fell into deep thought.

He still remembers reading in the book "Bloodline Origins" that some ambitious wizards tried to cultivate the most powerful and most suitable magical creatures through various means.

The creator of the basilisk, the despicable Helbo, went with this in mind...

According to records, Helmo also became the first person to fuse the blood of the basilisk, and was also the most famous dark wizard of the time, and it is rumored that he could kill his opponent in an instant...

Salazar Slytherin is probably the second person to fuse the blood of a basilisk!

It's just that the parchment scroll doesn't record what kind of abilities the founder of Hogwarts has gained...

But one thing is clear from the parchment, and that is that there are no after-effects of fusing snake blood...

Ivan put down the parchment in his hand and walked over to the bubbling cauldron that was "gurgling", looking at the fusion potion that had gradually turned into chaos, and did not hesitate to add the cold basilisk blood to it.

The chaotic-colored fusion potion rose up, slowly turning dark green in just a few minutes, shimmering with a faint fluorescence....

"System, Redeem Protected Mode!" Ivan put the potion into the test tube, held it in his hand, and spoke.
