Chapter 293: Horcruxes
The basilisk, which was in a frozen state, suddenly heard the voice of the natural enemy in his lair, and was suddenly a little confused. Fortunately www.biquge.info, the rooster created by the dialect with Transfiguration is no better than the rooster that is truly born naturally, and its crowing is much weaker than the restraining of the basilisk, which can only weaken its strength rather than directly hit it.
Listening to the crowing of the rooster, the basilisk only felt his head dizzy, and an inexplicable fear rose in his heart, and he instinctively wanted to escape. But the layer of black ice on the surface of its body firmly fixed its body in place, and it couldn't move for a short time.
"Hiss~"
The basilisk was furious, shaking its muscles and bones, trying to break free from the ice.
And its efforts have paid off. In any case, the basilisk is a behemoth with a body size of more than six meters and a weight of nearly ten tons, and it really erupts desperately at this moment, and there are very few means that can restrain its movements.
Tiny cracks began to gradually spread on the surface of the ice. It seems that the witchcraft of tongues has not been able to restrain it for long.
Fang Yan's brows furrowed, but he didn't expect that the rooster could play a worse role than he imagined. But fortunately, Fang Yan didn't expect to be able to subdue the basilisk by relying on this, and compared to the so-called natural enemy restraint, he still believed in absolute strength to crush him.
On top of that, the dialect never gave the basilisk a chance to use the "death gaze", and even now, he hadn't shown his form in front of the basilisk.
"Gravity...... Secondary Weakness...... Life Drain ......" Before the basilisk could completely break free from the shackles of the Infernal Barrier (that layer of black ice), Dialect launched a decisive attack.
And as several black lights flashed on Fang Yan's wand, a large number of auxiliary witchcraft and magic that could weaken the enemy's combat effectiveness were thrown on the head of the basilisk one by one.
The basilisk was once again blinded by a barrage of attacks.
The basilisk's magic resistance is strong, but gravity, which relies on creating a special force field to suppress the opponent's sorcery, can greatly cancel out the basilisk's advantages, further limiting the basilisk's ability to move. Combined with the Senluo Domain and the Ice Hell Enchantment, the basilisk was firmly suppressed in place and unable to move, falling into a situation where it could only passively bear the beating.
The secondary weakness technique and life drain have limited effect on the basilisk, but they can't resist the dialect as if they don't want mental power, and they throw them at the basilisk one after another. In the accumulation of small amounts, the power of the basilisk has been weakened to a considerable extent.
The strength of the basilisk's resistance became even weaker.
Seeing that the situation was under his control again, Fang Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, sure enough, a prepared wizard can really take advantage of it when fighting.
Especially this kind of enemy, whose strength is not as good as that of wizards, and whose own weaknesses are even more known to wizards, is easier to deal with.
At this time, the battle between the dialect and the basilisk has basically ended here. In addition to the "death gaze" that can be called a BUG, the basilisk is actually a high magic resistance that is worthy of praise. As for the other abilities on the basilisk? In fact, it is not much stronger than the pythons that the dialect encountered in the Amazon rainforest.
The rest of the wrapping up was a little easier than the dialect expected.
Seemingly due to being confined to Hogwarts for thousands of years, the basilisk looks a little stunted and mentally weaker than magical creatures of the same level. So after being completely suppressed by Fang Yan's strength, the basilisk quickly transmitted a spiritual fluctuation begging for mercy to Fang Yan.
Fang Yan was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect the basilisk to surrender like this, and the series of "big meals" he had prepared for the basilisk hadn't been used yet...... But that's fine, if you can save a lot of effort, the dialect will naturally not refuse.
Although the dialect does not understand snake language, it is clearer and clearer to convey information with mental power than in any other language. A mental fluctuation of "give up resistance" reached the head of the basilisk - after hesitating for a while, the basilisk finally gave up resistance completely under the obscenity of the dialect.
Plant a Seal Rune...... Engraved with a spiritual imprint...... The same process used to subdue the Gold Eater Ant Queen was repeated in the hands of the dialect.
As the rune sealing circle disappeared on the basilisk's brain, feeling that his life had completely grasped the hand of the dialect, the basilisk couldn't help but completely wilt, and lazily collapsed on the ground motionless. Even if the dialect has removed the Ice Hell Barrier and various negative states on it at this moment.
Through spiritual communication, the dialect communicates with his new pet.
For the basilisk, Dialect is most curious about its "death gaze" ability, but to Dialect's disappointment, even the basilisk itself does not know how the "death gaze" works, only that if he wants to, he can make creatures that meet his eyes fall into death.
However, since the birth of the basilisk, there has been no strong existence of the creature that has looked at it with its eyes, so the dialect is not sure that this ability of the basilisk is effective for all creatures? Or does it only work well on creatures of average strength, and becomes worse against creatures of average strength?
However, as stated in the original book, the basilisk's abilities are very flawed. If an organism does not make direct eye contact with the basilisk's eyes, but sees the basilisk's eyes through some other medium, they will only be petrified instead of killed.
So when Fang Yan was fighting with the basilisk just now, he had always relied on the Senluo domain to observe the basilisk's every move, and did not directly observe it with his eyes.
Communication with the basilisk ends, and the dialect falls into deep thought.
If you look at it this way, the shortcomings of the basilisk are still obvious, and there is also the strange weakness of being afraid of the rooster's crow, which can easily be targeted in battle.
However, Fang Yan believes that these shortcomings can be made up for under his tutelage.
The basilisk is afraid of the rooster's crowing as long as it can't hear it, and as for the other weaknesses and flaws in the basilisk, Fang Yan believes that he can find other ways to make up for it.
In addition to learning about the Basilisk's abilities, Dialect didn't forget to ask it about the Slytherin heir.
And the news obtained from the basilisk is not surprising, the Slytherin heir who opened the secret room this time is still Voldemort. As for which Horcrux is operating, it is not clear from the basilisk.
Fang Yan didn't care too much, Voldemort's Horcrux was a hidden danger, but with his current strength, he didn't have to be as jealous as before. Even head-to-head, the dialect believes that he will have a good chance of winning.
Of course, if you can take advantage of the Horcrux's weakness and easily solve it without much effort, Fang Yan is also very happy.
However, Fang Yan suddenly felt a little worried, and how to deal with the basilisk became a problem.
Although it is a magical creature, the basilisk has no other skills other than the natural ability "Death Gaze", and the ability to change the size of the body is not at all. How to quietly transfer the basilisk out of Hogwarts was a problem for Dialect, and he couldn't take such a behemoth with him.
In the end, Dialect chose to let the basilisk out of Hogwarts on its own. After passing the secret route out of Hogwarts to the head of the basilisk, the dialect left it to act on its own. Of course, the dialect didn't forget to tell it not to hurt the Hogwarts students.
……
While all the teachers and students at Hogwarts were still discussing whether the Chamber of Secrets really existed, no one arrived, and in their eyes, the dialect that had already left Hogwarts had quietly solved all the potential dangers for them.
The basilisk was a bonus, but the other purpose of the trip, the destruction of Voldemort's Horcruxes at Hogwarts, was not yet complete. So he searched the chamber to make sure that there were no other useful dialects, and soon left the place that he always felt very uncomfortable about.
While they also prefer to build chambers underground, dialects prefer dry, hygienic environments. A damp place like a snake's nest like a Slytherin vault wasn't his thing.
Back on the ground, Fang Yan suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, and even looked at Myrtle's slightly nervous face a little more pleasing to the eye.
It's just-
"You're not dead......" The disappointment in Myrtle's tone was not disguised at all.
Fang Yan suddenly felt the green tendons on his forehead jump.
Well, he retracted what he had just said.
With a wave of his hand, Fang Yan didn't continue to talk to Myrtle, he still needed to go to the castle to find Voldemort's Horcruxes. Although it is not surprising that the Voldemort Horcruxes that opened the secret room this time are still the same notebook, it is not ruled out that there are other possibilities.
……
Hogwarts, with the Room of Requirement.
Fang Yan sat reclining on the sofa, a worn-out notebook, quietly placed on the coffee table in front of him, and in his hand, he was playing with a crown that looked gray.
Looking at the Horcrux in front of him, Fang Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, sure enough, after his own strength became stronger, many things came naturally. Voldemort's Horcruxes, which had previously been regarded as a beast of the Flood, were now being played with in their hands like ordinary ornaments—the difference between them was not significant.
Voldemort's notebook, Ravenclaw's crown, these are the only two Horcruxes in Hogwarts. And the latter has been quietly carried in the room of the request before the dialect is in hand, and the difficulty of getting started is almost zero. The only thing that caught the slightest attention from the dialect was the dark magic that Voldemort attached to his Ravenclaw crown.
As for the former, after a little investigation, the dialect found that it had indeed fallen into the hands of Ginny, the youngest daughter of the Weasleys.
This was a bit of a problem, especially since Ginny didn't have her laptop with her, but left her in her bedroom.
However, after Dialect used the Imperius Charm to take control of a Gryffindor girl and ask her to help him get the notebook from Ginny's bedroom, the problem was no longer a problem.
Seriously, neither of these Horcruxes is actually that difficult to deal with. The one in the notebook was only the first Horcrux Voldemort had made when he was sixteen years old, and the soul fragments contained in the Horcrux were far from comparable to other Horcruxes in terms of strength and means.
This is also why notebook horcruxes can perform brain-dead behaviors such as opening secret rooms to expose their existence.
As for the one in the Ravenclaw Crown, the technology was very mature when it was made, and it was nourished by the treasure of the Ravenclaw Crown, so the Voldemort soul fragment contained in it was much stronger than the one in the notebook in terms of strength and memory.
If it were someone else, it might be a loss in the face of the crown, but who would have gotten it in tongues.
The dialect, which is very good at soul means, is almost divided by two by three, and the soul fragments in the crown are easily peeled off. It took him even more time to complete the process than he could crack the dark magic on the Ravenclaw crown.
Finally, the Soul Fragment Dialect that had been stripped from the notebook and crown was not intended to be wasted, and this high-quality soul material was lacking in his Witchcraft Soul Heart.
“…… Maybe I can take this opportunity to cultivate a good soul puppet again? ”
Fang Yan touched his chin, a thoughtful light flashed in his eyes, but he couldn't help but think of other Voldemort Horcruxes in his heart.
Doing what you think of is the code of conduct that the dialect has always embraced. After leaving Hogwarts, Dialect first quietly brought the basilisk that had left the castle as he told him to do and returned to his manor, and then began to collect other Horcruxes.
According to the original plot, Voldemort made a total of seven Horcruxes, Tom Riddle's notebook, Ravenclaw's tiara, Slytherin's locket, Hufflepuff's gold cup, the Reaper's Soul Stone ring in the Grim Reaper's Trihallows and the serpent Nagini.
As for the last Horcrux, it is unclear to even Voldemort himself, and he inadvertently created a savior, Harry Potter.
Among these Horcruxes, notebooks and crowns have fallen into the hands of dialects. The others, the Slytherin locket in the Black family's mansion, the Reaper's Triple Hallows, the Reaper Soul Stone Ring in the Gaunt House's ruins, are not difficult to figure out in dialects, but the latter needs to take a bit of risk, and the dark magic that Voldemort attached to it cannot be underestimated.
As for the Hufflepuff Gold Cup, it should still be in the treasury of Gringotts at the moment, and it will take a little effort to get the dialect, but it is not hopeless.
On the contrary, it was Nagini, which made the dialect feel a little headache. This serpent, who had been following Voldemort's remnant soul, has now disappeared because Voldemort has been eliminated by himself in advance.
Finally, there is Harry Potter, and Dialect is already planning to find an opportunity to peel off the soul fragment from his forehead, which should also be a blessing for Harry Potter himself. The name of Savior, while bringing high honor to Harry Potter, also brought him endless pressure.
Now that Dialect is planning to attack Voldemort and kill all his Horcruxes, it is natural that the title of Harry Potter, the savior, does not need to be carried any longer.
