Italy, Sicily, off the coast of Pachino.

I think that when Maca took Willy to find the small island of Royna, it was from here that she left Italy and entered the Mediterranean Sea.

But now, the place has fallen into a dead silence because of the arrival of a giant snake.

The houses in the small town on the shore were all that remained in ruins, and the Muggle inhabitants who had suffered unprovoked disasters were scattered and scattered, and there was a desolate scene everywhere.

According to some Muggles, there was a large figure that was faintly visible, and it looked like a snake. But not only was no one able to see what it looked like, but its size was unprecedented.

Everywhere we passed, the streets collapsed and the houses collapsed, and the scene was extremely horrific.

However, to the confusion of the wizards of the United Nations who went to investigate, it was clear that it was dawn, and most of the Muggles were sleeping at home, but until they realized and fled the area, there were not many people who were directly attacked and killed by the "big guy".

There is no doubt that the "huge figure" is probably the basilisk that has been wreaking havoc in Vagado in Africa before, but why didn't the Muggles in Sicily suffer as many casualties as Vagado's teachers and students this time?

Now, of course, there is another question that is obviously more important, and that is where did the troubled basilisk go after Pachino came ashore?

Maca looked at the latest information delivered by Akinbad, and after reading it all, she frowned a little solemnly and said to herself:

"After Africa...... Is it Italy? ”

From the African continent into the Mediterranean Sea and north to the Italian island of Sicily, it's no surprise that the basilisk chose this route. But if it continues to advance, there is no guarantee that it will not continue to France, which is closely connected to Italy.

And this is probably the last thing Maca wants to see in the direction of the development of events.

If the next appearance of the basilisk will be in France, what will he do then? Do you trust Mr. Blois to take care of this, or will he leave the British wizarding world for a while and go to France to solve this big problem for Willy and the others?

Perhaps it was because it might threaten the lives of the people in Blois Castle that Maca couldn't help but hesitate.

Now, the day of the meteorite fall is getting closer and closer, and Helbo's movements in the dark are becoming more and more frequent. At such times, he really didn't want to leave at will.

Fortunately, this difficult multiple-choice question didn't bother him for long.

……

The news of the appearance of the basilisk in Italy has not yet appeared in the major newspapers of wizards. It may soon be published in journals such as the Daily Prophet, but it will certainly take time.

However, the information about African Vagado, which everyone had not been able to get by all means, has finally become an article after article, and has gradually entered the attention of the wizarding public.

"All members of the Federation's wizarding team were injured, the president, Mr. Akinbad, lost his left arm and an eye, and the Vagado School of Witchcraft and Wizardry suffered heavy casualties...... This is another great disaster after the nightmare in London! ”

At Hogwarts, young wizards are now mostly talking about the events in the newspapers and magazines about the African Vagado. Especially the news of the sudden disappearance of the culprit in the African magic world made everyone even more worried.

Because no one knows which place will be the next unlucky one.

It also says that the basilisk does not show fear of the crowing of a rooster...... The biggest weakness of this basilisk is no longer its weakness. So, if we encounter it in the future, we have to think of other ways to deal with it first......"

At this moment, Hermione is seriously analyzing the things that should be considered before meeting the basilisk.

They had also encountered real basilisk back then, so they were familiar with the terrifying and magical creature of the basilisk.

However, the article in the Daily Prophet makes it clear that there is undoubtedly a big difference between the basilisk that once wreaked havoc in Vagado and the one in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets.

"Of course, before we can think about how to deal with it, we must first understand that the basilisk's gaze is deadly! We must not make direct contact with its gaze when confronted with it...... Not indirectly, because then you won't die on the spot, you'll be petrified into a statue......"

Listening to Hermione's words, Ron couldn't help but say with some distress:

"Actually, a few years ago, I wondered what to do with it if we kept our eyes closed. No, I think it's going to be hard to even run away, right? ”

"That's why we have to figure it out!" Hermione said, "For example, judging the Basilisk by listening to the sound - I know, it's not an easy task, but at least it's a direction to try. ”

"How do you try it?" Neville asked, "Train blindfolded?" ”

"Hmm," Hermione nodded, "I think I can give it a try." ”

For this kind of exercise, which can improve their chances of survival, the members of . are highly motivated. In the evening of the same day, everyone began the training of blindfolded and listening to the position in the room where they were answered.

Hermione blindfolded everyone, and she used the Levitation Charm to control a wooden plank as a target, making movements in various positions in the room again and again, guiding everyone to wave their wands to release various rays of light to hit the target as much as possible for the purpose of training.

To be honest, the effect of this training is there, but the progress is quite slow. If you keep practicing like this, God knows when you will be able to actually use it in real combat.

Maybe when the basilisk appeared in the British wizarding world, they hadn't been able to practice enough to be used in actual combat.

After another moment of pondering, Hermione suddenly turned her attention to Luna, who was also training with her—she already knew about Luna's ability to sense Dao magic.

Therefore, if it were Luna, she might be able to directly determine the location of the basilisk through the perception of magic.

So, can you also use Luna's ability?

It didn't take long for Hermione to think that some of the methods of ancient magic might be able to make her idea come true. It's just that the specific way to do it is not something that can be figured out in a moment.

Therefore, before she can figure out a feasible plan, the training to fight blindfolded must continue. If nothing else, at least everyone must be able to ensure that they survive when they encounter a basilisk.

Seriously, for some reason, Hermione felt that the basilisk had a good chance of appearing in the UK.
