Chapter 189: Youth Elixir

As soon as the words fell, George waved his wand, and a huge wall of ice appeared out of thin air, separating Ron and Ginny from the ice wall. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"This mirror is really big. Harry stared dumbfounded at George's so-called mirror, which completely replaced the stone wall and separated the two worlds.

"Snakes are cold-blooded, they don't like the cold, and low temperatures can make them hibernate. A mirror made of ice can not only block the basilisk's death gaze, but also make it unconsciously avoid it. Hermione nodded slightly, drawing inferences about the role of the mirror.

George also looked at Hermione with an approving face, "This is a good wizard, a must-have observation." The basilisk is actually quite powerful, as you have just seen, and its peeling skin is almost indestructible, and its protection is amazing. ”

"And the living basilisk, the defense and lethality will only be more terrifying. Simply confronting it, even a powerful wizard will only be bored with himself. ”

"It's very stupid to fight a beast like a mountain monster. The most important thing for a wizard is that in addition to magic, he needs more brains, and magic is not used to throw around like a bomb. Magic is a means for wizards to achieve their ends, just as scientists use science to achieve their ends. ”

George said as he motioned for Harry to put on the magic glasses, and then led the way into the cold, mysterious room.

Harry carefully placed the magic glasses made of dark crystals on top of his black-rimmed glasses, the weight of which made him a little unaccustomed to them.

Fortunately, the Magic Glasses seemed to have been deliberately considered for his condition, and the large frame was just enough to completely block his original glasses. The dark crystal lenses seemed to have something else added, and looking through the magic lenses, the mysterious stone chamber had an extra layer of radiant light, and the vision became brighter.

"It's dark vision, Hermione don't touch your glasses. George immediately admonished, noticing that Hermione was a little curious about the Magic Glasses, and touched them with her hand from time to time.

Harry walked silently after George, the sound of his footsteps echoing loudly through the empty room.

In front of me was a long room, with tall stone pillars carved with coiled serpents, and it seemed empty and vast compared to the crowded and narrow tunnels. The ceiling was barely visible, except for the stone pillars that reached into the heights and melted into the darkness.

They walked between the stone pillars until they reached the end of the room. At the end of the room is a dark wall, and on the wide wall is a statue as tall as the room.

Harry craned his neck high to see the statue's massive face, an old dragon clock, a wrinkled, monkey-like face, and a sparse beard that dragged down to the hem of the wizard's robes. Two big feet stand on the smooth floor.

"He's so ugly," Hermione muttered quietly, compared to Dumbledore's kindness and gentleness when he was old, the wizard in front of him, who was also tall and old, only looked rotten and ugly.

"Aging is really terrifying, and it seems that my long-term plan is to add another item, which is called the refining of youth elixir. George said lightly, as if they were not facing terrible monsters, but were on a relaxing outing in the wilderness.

"Youth Elixir, I'm going to add such a plan as well. I haven't seen a potion in wizarding history that can maintain youth, have they never needed it, or is it because it's so hard?" Hermione asked, curious.

She had read a lot of records and histories of wizards, but it was a little strange that this dream and legend, which was well known to everyone in the mortal world, had no trace in the history of wizards.

"For both reasons, the wizard population is too small and the self-esteem is very high. In fact, many wizards are so proud that they have no friends. They had little incentive to develop such a complex and relatively impractical potion. George casually speculated.

The wizarding world has a small population, and female wizards have always had the same great power, resulting in a very complete equality between men and women in the wizarding world. Wizards are monogamous and have a very small social circle, which makes them reluctant to focus more on maintaining their appearance.

That's why there are greasy, unkempt wizards like Snape. It is precisely because of this that Lockhart has become popular among thousands of witches.

After all, compared to the old-fashioned ideas of many male wizards, Lockhart is more like a popular modern man in the true sense, an open-minded, humorous modern wizard, old-fashioned male wizards, and many of them even believe in pure-blood theories, using themselves and others as breeding tools.

Think about it like this, and you know how unlikable they are to girls.

But there is no way, in the long history, witches are definitely not looking down on ordinary people, even if they are witches, they have no more choices.

It wasn't until modern times, when ordinary people began to catch up with the quality of life of wizards, that this could change. He also had a Slytherin descendant, who fell in love with a handsome Muggle billionaire.

"What do we do next?" asked Harry in a whisper.

He didn't have the heart to hear about the elixir of youth, he was still too early to need these things, and he might not need them. He just wanted to get rid of the basilisk quickly, and the gloomy atmosphere here always scared him a little.

He wasn't as nervous as Hermione and George, he had been through a lot of darkness, he had been locked in a cupboard many times, and the constant darkness always scared him.

"Say in snake language to the Slytherin statue, talk to me, Slytherin, the mightiest of the Hogwarts Four. George said blandly, signaling that the statue in front of him was the Slytherin statue, and asked Harry to continue speaking in snake language.

Harry began to concentrate on imagining a giant snake in front of him, and from time to time he looked at the giant snake wrapped around the pillars on either side, in order to convince himself that the monkey-like face in front of him was also a snake.

Fortunately, he had already foreshadowed the previous few times, and even in the face of a monkey face, he was finally able to imagine a snake.

Harry's mouth was open, and a cold, hoarse hiss came out of his mouth.

"It's really important to know a foreign language. Hermione looked at Harry with some envy, except for George, who could help Harry along the way, they could only watch, and Ron and Ginny were left behind the ice wall.

The huge Slytherin statue began to move at Harry's hiss, and the statue's mouth began to open and widen, eventually turning into a massive black hole.
