Chapter 150: Christmas
After Neville hissed like a snake, the entire auditorium fell silent.
Even Snape stood on the spot, not reacting for a moment.
As soon as Ted saw that the situation didn't seem right, he pulled Neville and walked out the door, and the friends behind him quickly followed with a tacit understanding.
The eyes of the others followed the footsteps of the six, and they went out of the door until they couldn't see before they retracted.
"What's wrong? What happened? Neville asked for some reason.
"You can Parseltongue? Didn't you say it earlier? Why didn't you say it earlier? Harley asked, surprised.
"Parseltongue?! I won't! Neville was startled, his lips trembling. I really can't~
"But you just talked to the snake." Hermione said worriedly.
Ron's face was also very strange: "But Neville saved Ginny." β
Neville's face turned green: "The first time I spoke to a snake, I didn't know I was a parseltongue!" β
Jerry was confused and quickly asked, "What is a Parseltongue?!" β
Hallie explained what a parseltongue isβthe ability to communicate with snakes, and even command snakes.
"Legend has it that Slytherin is a parseltongue." Hallie looked at Neville.
"Neville, is you the heir of the Chamber of Secrets?" Jerry's eyes widened and his ears pricked up.
"Me? No! No, I'm not! Neville denied it.
Ted stopped them from thinking nonsense and said, "Don't think about it, you have a dormitory, don't you know who Neville is?" β
Can Neville be the heir of Slytherin? He can't~
So, in the "S" mark on that forehead, a fragment of Voldemort's soul was housed just like in the original book. He brings Parseltongue abilities.
This is a question, and it is related to the grand plan to get rid of Voldemort once and for all......
Neville was now terrified, unable to explain his Parseltongue abilities, let alone accept the fact that he might be the heir of Slytherin.
Ted had to reassure him, "Don't worry, Neville, you don't have to know Parseltongue to be the heir of Slytherin." Paracelsus discovered the Parseltongue in the 16th century, although it was already used in the Classical and Middle Ages. And the despicable Helmpo is also a parseltongue......"
When Neville heard this, he became even more anxious: "So, the Parseltongue is the language of dark wizards?!" I ......"
"Don't be too nervous, it's just a special kind of magic language. It's just that the famous wizards who have ever had them have not done good things, so they are misunderstood. β
What else could Ted say?
It really seems that only dark wizards can do this, I wonder if I can teach myself?
Hallie also spoke comfortingly: "Not necessarily, I read the records of the Black family, and there are people in the Gaunt family who have disappeared before who can speak Parseltongue." They are said to be descendants of Slytherin, perhaps the Longbottom family intermarried with them, and you inherited this ability. β
Neville was about to cry, "So, I'm more sure it's the Slytherin heir?!" β
β¦β¦
This thing is fermenting quite quickly.
Originally, the dueling club was quite interesting, first Lockhart made a foreign appearance, then Ted won more than a dozen in a row, and then Neville's Parseltongue.
Parseltongue hey~
Almost all young wizards from wizarding families know what this means.
So, the boy who didn't die, the heir to the Longbottom family, turned out to be a parseltongue?!
Moreover, he could still be the heir of Slytherin?!
The monster that attacked the Ravenclaw dwarf girl in the secret room that was opened two days ago was released by him?
When Neville and the three returned to their dorm room that night, Dean and Seamus, the demoman, were huddled under the covers like quails.
Neville had just said something to them, and they were so frightened that they got straight into a bed, and they shivered...... Well, wait, something is wrong?!
In short, the perception of Neville by the whole school is now revolutionary.
From a boy who doesn't die, to an ordinary and a little clumsy student, to an evil heir to the secret room~
It's a big wind and a big wave!
At night, Ted, on the other hand, looked at a card he had just completed his mission.
[Drawing: Shadow Goggles (Green)]
Prop cards
Use: Learn to make these magical engineering goggles.
Number of uses: 1/1.
Ted chose to use it, and the card in his mind suddenly ignited and disappeared, just like any other one-off card.
After using it, Ted had a little more knowledge in his mind, which was about making magic goggles.
This is an engineering creation from the world of Azeroth, which involves a lot of alchemy knowledge, as well as some strange magic knowledge!
Ted had seen the term in books published by the library in recent years.
The word "magician" appears with the confluence of the stars, specifically with the dwarfs.
Gnomes, like wizards, have been blessed with magic from an early age. It's a natural magical race.
Although they also have their own unique spell-casting techniques, most of them tend to favor fancy illusions and the like.
They use magic more to make magic guides.
Ted had seen the first scene of the pygmy girl Clara being petrified, and she wore a pair of glasses with a strange style, but from the scene, the glasses had been severely damaged, and the lenses had already melted.
Now this magic engineering goggles are a bit biased towards alchemy + magic guides.
As for the effects, according to the knowledge in the mind, it can greatly increase the resistance to abnormal magic effects.
Compared to the glasses that I made randomly, it is much more "scientific".
Give it a try, now that the situation is urgent, don't delay.
That night, Ted tried his hand at making it.
It's just that in the second half of the night, I didn't succeed.
The first is the issue of materials.
Obsidian is ground into thin lenses, which require very fine manipulative manipulation. Then cast a spell on it to make it transparent.
Then there is the alchemy to make magic bronze glasses frames, and use silver wire inlays to arrange "magic conduction circuits", which is a bit like making circuits, which should be called magic roads.
The best case is to set the silver wire inside the bronze frame, but if the technique is not up to standard, the surface will also work.
Then there's a pair of opals, which are only found in Sri Lanka, and a pair the size of a grain of rice costs 8 Galleons.
After the opal is set in the center of the Silver Silk Magic Road, the final treatment is to be applied with the Oil of Shadow.
This oil of shadows also requires additional potions, which requires materials that are not too expensive, but the materials are relatively out-of-the-way, and it takes time to entrust Mr. Giggs to buy them in Diagon Alley, or even Tumbledown Alley.
In short, this thing can't be made in three or two days.
β¦β¦
When Ted returned to his bedroom in the middle of the night, it was already snowing outside the window. By the time dawn came, it had already turned into a violent snowstorm.
As a result, the last herbal medicine class of the semester was cancelled.
The next day, the students already knew about Neville's Parseltongue.
At dinner in the morning, Ted and the six of them almost didn't directly occupy a long table.
Except for the twins, who were eating not far away and winking at everyone, Peggy came over and patted her little brother to comfort Neville, and Ginny brought Luna over to thank him, and everyone else wanted to stay away.
Ah, foolishness.
Ted remembers the time when the Gryffindor lion cubs were shouting, "We've got a boy who won't die." But now they have suspicion and vigilance written on their faces, which makes people sigh.
In the afternoon, the twins came to play a prank and made way for Neville and them in the hallway, shouting, "Give way to the heir of Slytherin, he has to have afternoon tea with the evil servants in his secret room~"
Hallie almost didn't just give each of them a big neck hug and put them down.
By the time it was time for dinner, even Peeves knew about it.
Deliberately rushed over to laugh at Neville, he floated in the sky, with a smiling smile, singing with a sharp voice: "Longbottom is the heir, open the door of the secret room~ The monster is coming to clear the field, everyone run~"
Don't say it, some people really believe it, especially the first-year freshmen, who all ran away in an uproar.
Angry, Harley shouted on the spot: "You have the ability to wait!" β
Peeves still doesn't know whether to live or die: "Broken little ghost, what can you do to me~"
After a while, Harley came back in a hurry, and she actually brought the "ghost whip" refined by Ted.
Without waiting for Peeves to move, Harley flicked the whip - "Poof~" Ron fell to the ground.
Harley had never practiced this soft weapon, and with a flick of her hand, she wrapped her hands around Ron's feet and dragged him to the ground.
Ron's feet were tied up and he was all bruised: What's the situation? Someone hurt me!
Hallie quickly apologized, "Oh, Ron, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. β
Peeves saw the thing take it out, and with a "whoop" he threw himself into the wall and ran.
If it weren't for Ron's help in preventing him, he would have received at least a whip.
Fortunately, this is a "ghost whip" refined with the thoughts of the students in the school, and it is aimed at Peeves, and it does no harm to others, otherwise Ron would have to cry for half an hour at this time.
On the 21st, the semester ended, and the Christmas break began.
The six have all stayed at the school, with the Weasleys going to Romania last year to visit their second son, Charlie, who had just graduated from dragon training in Romania, and this year to Egypt to visit their eldest son, Bill, who is a spell solver at Gringotts, Egypt.
So the five Weasley siblings, who were still in school, stayed at school.
Ted wondered if the couple were on their Christmas honeymoon?
