"Ahh Ann, Professor Anne! Hello! ”

Harry, who was standing at the outermost of the crowd, quickly said hello when he saw Anne walking towards them, and stepped forward to help Ron, who was drenched wet, to get out of the way of the middle of the aisle.

The rest of Ron's body had almost recovered, except that his right hand was still pointing stiffly forward, a little funny. When she walked over, little Anne couldn't help but look at him twice in curiosity.

She suddenly thought this person was so funny! Anne could tell that the big boy's fingers still had some traces of the spell casting, and the magic of the entire right hand was still messing around! Could it be that the spell exploded inside the finger? Ha! It seems that he must have failed to cast a spell and was devoured! Someone who still uses their fingers as a wand? What a stupid man!

"It's Annie! Do you know? Something terrible has just happened here! Hermione and Anne were more familiar, and as long as they weren't in class, she called Anne by her first name, without the title of professor.

Now seeing little Anne appear here, she immediately feels like she has found the backbone, and she no longer has to worry about being framed at will! You know, little Anne is a very protective master! Don't say anything about framing, even if she Hermione really killed the cat, the little girl can settle it!

"Mr. Filch's cat has been murdered by someone for nowhere! It's the one that's hanging on the wall over there! Hermione explained the situation to Anne while helping the three of them clear their suspicions! After all, this cat was not killed by the three of them, they just happened to pass by here!

"Huh? Murder of a cat? Anne was a little stunned when she heard Hermione's words, and then looked at the wall, where there was indeed a dirty cat hanging upside down! And it seems that there are some words written on the wall?

Anne stepped forward curiously, and when she observed, she also wondered who was so bored that he wanted to murder a cat? What is there to murder in a cat? If you're not happy, drive it away! Or if you get into a hurry, can't you just burn it? How boring is this person who is still in the mood to hang a cat here? Even Anne herself, she has long stopped bullying these little animals! She usually only bullies those big and ferocious animals!

"Nope! It's not dead, it's just petrified! And I'm sure I can undo it! It's just that they won't let it! Uh...... "See a chance to perform, Gildero?" Lockhart popped up again, but unfortunately, the people around him ignored him and had to retreat back in embarrassment.

"Annie, do you see something?" Dumbledore asked, in fact, he knew the words when he first saw them, and it was the same back then! Now he probably knew what had made the cat like this!

Originally, he thought that he would dispose of it when he was free, but after seeing that Harry was also there, he suddenly had a plan that was not very mature! Maybe with a little brewing, this matter can be used to raise the boy he fancies: Harry? Porter?

"Hmm...! That's right! The cat is not dead! Nor was it completely petrified! It is in a peculiar semi-petrified state! It's like... It's like the soul is frozen! So you can't move! After Anne checked on Lady Loris, she looked down and thought about it, this state was magical, much like a story her father, the mystic sorcerer Gregory, had told her! She had always thought it was just a story! I didn't expect to see a similar situation here!

Legend has it that Noxus has the youngest daughter of a certain family, who has been infected by the venom of a Shurima tomb guard, and she has become a terrifying creature with the body of a snake! Her eyes also have a special change, often just a glance can bring death!

In the war against Demacia, countless ordinary soldiers of Demacia would be completely petrified and lose their lives in an instant after seeing her eyes directly! And whoever sees her eyes indirectly will become in a semi-petrified state similar to this cat! What's her name? Cassiopeia? It should be, right?

"And then?" Realizing that it didn't take much time for Anne to see so much, Dumbledore motioned for her to continue! He himself had carefully inspected it for a long time before he detected that the cat was in a semi-petrified state, but he didn't see that his soul was frozen or something!

"If I'm not mistaken, it's not magic! It must be caused by some nasty creature! Anne said excitedly, pointing to the upside-down cat.

"In our Valoran Continent, there is a snake demon with a human head and a snake body that can cause a similar situation! Whoever sees the eyes of the snake demon directly will be petrified by the sight and take away their soul and lose their life! Indirectly you see it like this! Because the deadly petrified sight was only seen indirectly, and it was not powerful enough to take away its soul, so it was frozen! That's it! ”

Anne turned her head to look around, and then she noticed the standing water in the hallway, "Hah! I know! There's probably a snake demon here! Then the cat saw the eyes of the snake demon from the reflection in the water! That's right! It must be so! ”

"Snake, snake demon?" Hearing such a terrifying thing, Harry, Ron and Hermione hurriedly moved closer to the crowd, they didn't expect there to be such a terrifying monster in Hogwarts Castle! Die just by seeing the eyes? Can't see it indirectly?

Listening to Anne's words, Snape looked down in thought. He hadn't realized it before, but after Anne's words came out, the word snake demon reminded him of some rumors in the past. So, he quickly looked up at Dumbledore, and sure enough, the old man's expression made him confirm his conjecture just now!

Hum! Snape snorted coldly! This old man knows better than anyone else what is going on here! It's just that he doesn't want to say it, he wants to continue to keep everyone in the dark! Who knows what he's up to in mind? The virtue of this old thing is as bad as ever!

"The snake demon's eyes are so powerful? So! Is there anything I can do to avoid harm? "I didn't expect it to be such a terrifying creature, Gildero? Lockhart immediately couldn't sit still! This is a terrible thing, how can he not be nervous?

Harlot himself knows his own skills best, and this kind of creature that can be life-threatening when he sees his eyes can't afford him not to be nervous! Just one look will kill you! It's also so exciting! What kind of vampires are he talking about in his book, where can he compare to this snake demon or something? Besides, he blew out those books himself! If he really touches the snake demon, I'm afraid it's the rhythm of ending in minutes!

"Well...... It seems that you can only resist with your own magic, right? If the magic is strong enough, you can carry it hard! Otherwise, just don't look into its eyes! "Of course, Anne knows the weakness of this monster, and its petrified vision is nothing more than a natural use of magical power! As long as your strength is strong enough, you don't have to worry about it at all!

Anne is confident, even if she looks directly at it, she will at most consume a little bit of magic power, and then feel uncomfortable for a while! After that, you can just burn it yourself! Anyway, in Anne's opinion, a creature that can stare at itself to death with just her eyes is completely non-existent!

Anne had read the battle report before! When Noxus and Demacia were fighting, the female basilisk named Cassiopeia was only able to petrify the heroes of Demacia for a short time! And it's only petrified for a short period of time! It's not fatal at all!

It can be seen that this petrified sight is actually not omnipotent! It can only work wonders when it scares at a creature weaker than it! And the sight itself still consumes mana! Magic is rigorous! Otherwise, if they stare at whoever dies, what kind of group fights will they fight all day long? If you have nothing to do, send the snake girl out for a walk twice, and the whole Valoran world will be their Noxus!

"This ...... Powerful magic? Resist it yourself? ”

It doesn't look like you can handle it like you, right? Gildero? Lockhart felt that for the sake of his own life, he should buy a pair of sunglasses to wear at any time after he went back! If you have glasses, you don't think you're looking at each other directly, right?

"That's it! So, Severus, is there any way you can lift this state? "Dumbledore thinks that the basilisk in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets is still somewhat useful, and now he just needs to keep an eye on it! So he quickly changed the topic, not wanting to delve into it any more!

"The school's herb room has recently entered a batch of mandrake seedlings, and when they mature, they should be able to make a universal potion that can remove all petrification or anomalies!"

Snape untied the petrified cat from the torch rack and grabbed its tail in his hand, he needed to study it again when he got back, and make sure it was in the right potion for its current state to be sure!

"Ahh Mandrake! I'm good at this! I'm very good at mixing mandela-related potions! "Gildero, who refuses to be idle for a moment? Lockhart popped up again, desperately brushing up on his presence.

"Sorry! I'm afraid I'm the Potions teacher! Snape didn't give Lockhart half a good look, and stared at him coldly.

For this little white face who likes to brag, he has long been displeasing to the eye! In fact, he doesn't like all the little white faces! What's more, this bastard also robbed him of the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor that Snape had always dreamed of! Even if he robbed it, he still wanted to interfere with his duties as a professor of Potions class? This is unreasonable! If it weren't for the fact that he was at school now, Snape would have pulled out his wand and struck him coldly!

"That's it! So be it! Minerva, take the students back to rest! This matter needs to be kept secret for the time being, try not to cause panic! "Dumbledore doesn't want to dwell over a cat here anymore, and he'll have to spend some time brewing about the basilisk! So he hurriedly beckoned Professor McGonagall to protect Harry and the three of them back to the Gryffindor common room, and told them to keep it a secret!

"That's it! Let's all go our separate ways! Seeing McGonagall leave with the three students, Dumbledore also returned to his Headmaster's office with a phantasm.

"Wait, Professor Snape, I'm going to host an interesting dueling club next Friday night, I wonder if you'd be interested in coming and mentoring?" Seeing that Snape was about to walk away with the cat, Lockhart hurriedly stopped him.

"Oh? Dueling Club? Hehe! I think I'll go! Snape looked Lockhart up and down, as if he had thought of something interesting, and nodded in agreement! Then he shook off his black wizard's robe, which had not changed for thousands of years, and turned around and walked away quickly.

Filch also followed Snape, because his pet cat, Lady Loris, was still in Snape's hands, and he must be guarding it well!

"So, Professor Anne? What about you? Interested? Lockhart turned to look at Anne, and he and Anne were left in the hallway.

"Dueling Club?" Anne tilted her head and thought about it, and directly refused: "I don't want to play with Uncle Weird!" See you soon~! After saying that, she flickered and disappeared, and in the next moment, she had teleported directly back to the luxurious suite at the top of her castle!

Blame, blame uncle? All right! If you don't come, you won't come! He, Harlot, is still a little worried that this little girl is too powerful to affect his performance! It's better not to come! So be it!

When everyone was gone, the hallway was quiet again, and Lockhart was the only one left! Looking at the dim environment around him, he remembered that the snake demon that was about to die at a glance had appeared here, so frightened that Lockhart was shocked on the spot, quickly lowered his head, and dared to look only at his toes, and then began to leave quickly and in greater steps!

As he walked, he whispered in his mouth, "Don't come out of the snake demon!" Don't come out! We have no grudges in the past, and no hatred in the near future! Don't come out and scare me! Merlin bless! God bless ......"

Where does Harlot care now that wizards believe in God or not? Merlin is sure to believe it! As for whether Merlin has the function of blessing believers, he is not very clear! Think about how wizards often tease Merlin's beard, Merlin's pants or something, and now Merlin has been played with bad words and used in tone! Presumably, Merlin will definitely not bless him after he finds out, right?

As for God...., Harlot suddenly remembered an interesting thing, when the witch was burned and the wizard was burned, the church was burned the hardest, right? So why do they have to celebrate Christmas every year? Ha! Looks like it's a good project! Maybe I should write a new book on this? The title of the book is called: Harlot's Discovery of the Century?
