Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Chapter 289: Double Death, Slytherin Book!
Everyone looked at Harry anxiously.

Ron stopped looking for his wand and ran to Harry, asking, "What potion can be used to cure the basilisk's poison? I have a common antidote. Can this be used to cure it?"

Everyone else fell silent.

Only Ron foolishly took out the antidote from the Retractable Ring and hurriedly poured it on Harry's wound.

"Hiss—" Harry gasped.

The dark green antidote mixed with the purple blood and flowed onto the floor, but Harry's face became paler and paler, and his breath was visibly weakening.

Ron: "Why is it ineffective? Why... Is it because I didn't use enough? Where are the antidotes for others?"

He shouted at the other little wizards: "Take out your antidotes, hurry up, save Harry, save Harry..."

Hermione sobbed sadly and yelled back, "It's useless, it's the poison of the basilisk, ordinary antidotes can't cure it, you have to use a special serum.

But that would require studying the basilisk, and it's too late, it's too late for all of us!"

"No, it's impossible. Harry can still be saved, right? Harry was bitten by the basilisk in order to save us. I..."

Ron looked at Harry and began to cry too.

Lin Xia turned her head and looked at the basilisk. Its body was twitching and it was almost dead.

She walked over.

Draco quickly followed, "Lin Xia, what are you going to do?"

Lin Xia said hesitantly, "I was thinking that the snake gall of the basilisk can clear the eyes and detoxify. I don't know if it's too late to cut open the basilisk and take out the gall now."

Draco hesitated: "But the basilisk is not dead yet, and are you sure the snake gall can remove the basilisk's poison?"

Lin Xia shook her head gently: "I'm not sure, but I think it's not a bad idea to give it a try."

Fawkes, who was hovering on the ceiling, suddenly fell to the ground. He looked at Harry with a trace of sadness in his eyes.

Harry's consciousness was a little fuzzy, but he still recognized Fawkes.

Harry said: "Fawkes, it's not your fault. I didn't react quickly enough. You did a great job."

Fawkes the Phoenix rested his head against Harry's shoulder.

"Drop, drop, drop..." A few drops of Phoenix tears fell on Harry's wound.

Ron and Hermione screamed in surprise, and Lin Xia and Draco hurried over.

Under the effect of Phoenix Tears, the big hole on Harry's shoulder gradually disappeared and returned to its original appearance!
Lin Xia suddenly had an idea: "Legend has it that Phoenix's tears can heal wounds, but I didn't expect that they can also detoxify."

After Harry's body was fine, the young wizard finally turned his attention to Gris.

The basilisk is about to die, and only Gris, the little wizard possessed by Voldemort, makes others worried.

In the confrontation just now, all the little wizards combined were not enough to defeat Voldemort alone.

When Harry was injured, everyone else went over to check, only Mikel was still staring at Grace, and would occasionally hit him with a "smash to pieces" shot.

Logically speaking, the little wizard's magic power is insufficient, and Mikel does not have enough magic power to use "Tears to Pieces" continuously.

But perhaps under the pressure of the crisis, Mikel also exerted 200% of his strength and sent out many "Bone Shattering" shots, torturing Gress's body in great pain.

If “being torn into pieces” works, the pain it brings to the wizard will be no less than capital punishment!
Seeing that Mikel was about to continue using spells on the weak Gress, Hermione couldn't help but stop him.

"Mikel, that's enough. Gress can't resist anymore."

Mikkel didn't believe it, and said in a trembling voice: "That's Voldemort, even if he possesses a little wizard, it's still Voldemort!
Voldemort will not surrender so easily. He looks very painful, but it is just an appearance. Maybe he will take advantage of our laxity to catch us all in one fell swoop!"

Hermione fell silent.

What Mikel said is so true!

But it was a bit difficult for her to deal with such a Gress - powerless, curled up on the floor, howling in pain.

Lin Xia turned to look at Fox, and those light golden eyes seemed to be reflected in the depths of its soul.

"Fox, you have a way, right?"

Fox tilted his head and flew to Grace's side, with just a loud scream and a seemingly light peck.

Gries' eyes closed instantly, and he was completely out of breath.

The little wizards all breathed a sigh of relief, including Mikel.

But in his heart, he was extremely depressed.

Just a little bit, just a little bit, the final blow will be done by him!
He can gain more experience points and maybe even draw some of Voldemort's skills!
What a big loss, what a big loss!

However, the next second, a sentence popped up on the system screen in front of him:

[Gles (who possesses Voldemort's soul) has died. The task has been settled. Your contribution to Gles' death has reached 60%, which exceeds the 50% required for an excellent evaluation. The reward has been upgraded to an exceptional reward...

Congratulations, you have drawn Voldemort's specialty skill: Flattery (In some ways, you are better at bewitching people than others)

You get 500 bonus experience points. Combined with your previous experience points, do you want to upgrade?

PS: Once the upgrade is turned on, you will not be able to obtain hidden random rewards]
Mikel couldn't help but ask the system in his heart: "What is the hidden random reward?"

The system was silent.

Mikel asked the question several times from a different angle, but the system still did not answer.

Mikel thought about it and decided to suppress it secretly and not upgrade it.

He had owned the system for so long and had never received a hidden reward, so subconsciously, he thought this was a good reward.

Since there is no rush to upgrade now, Mikel decided to take a gamble.

the other side.

With the death of Gries, the basilisk rolling on the other side finally stopped moving and died completely!

After the death of the man and the snake, the little wizard completely let go of the tension in his heart. He collapsed on the ground and looked up at the towering ceiling in the secret room.

George: "It was an unforgettable experience, that one day I would actually face a basilisk and try to kill it!"

Fred whistled. "This is something we can brag about for the rest of our lives. Even our ancestors probably wouldn't have encountered this!"

Others also spoke up and expressed their thoughts.

After the extreme tension, there was extreme fatigue. Some of the little wizards closed their eyes and dozed off while talking.

But Lin Xia is not here.

She turned her head to look in the direction of the basilisk and Gries, and the Eye of Destiny suddenly activated, allowing her to see something different.

Above Gles and the basilisk, there was a thick black fog rolling, and it seemed that there was something hidden in it.

Looking closely, it looks like a book.

Lin Xia's eyes deepened slightly. She touched Draco and asked in a low voice, "Are the basilisk and Gress really dead?"

Draco looked over and said nonchalantly, "They must be dead, otherwise how could they let us be so leisurely." Lin Xia observed Draco's expression and suddenly realized that Draco hadn't noticed anything.

In other words, he couldn't see the black fog above.

This black fog is so conspicuous that anyone who looks over will definitely notice it.

Lin Xia's eyes flashed thoughtfully.

After resting for about half an hour, Fox pecked each of the little wizards gently and asked them to get up, and then he pulled them up.

Harry asked hesitantly, "What will happen to the basilisk and Gris if we leave?"

Ron said as a matter of course: "We will tell Headmaster Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall and ask them to come and solve it!"

Harry thought about it and decided that this was fine.

The group of people grabbed one person at a time and slowly ascended under the leadership of Fox.

Shortly after they left, a light golden scale of fate appeared in front of Gles and the basilisk.

When this scale appears, it gives people a strong sense of deterrence and oppression!
An invisible force appeared, lifting Gles and the basilisk's bodies high into the sky and landing on one end of the scale.

Since they were already dead and at the mercy of the scales of fate, there was no need to compare the weight of other objects.

The scales of fate were reluctant to give up these two things and wanted to sacrifice them completely.

But Lin Xia had warned it before: "You can only sacrifice energy! If you make a mistake in the sacrifice, you will either be completely out of my body, or you will never get any energy from me again!"

Lin Xia believes that the scales of fate are conscious and have been secretly spying on something.

So she didn't care whether the Scales of Fate could understand her or not, and just told it first.

The scales of fate shook in a very humane way, and then started the energy sacrifice. It did not intercept the energy and feed it back to Lin Xia, but used it all to make the strange object.

Streams of black mist emerged from the bodies of Gliese and the basilisk.

If Lin Xia were here, she would be able to see that the black fog was exactly the same as what she had seen before.

After a while, the energy sacrifice was over, and Gries and the basilisk's bodies fell back to the ground.

After the energy was absorbed, their bodies turned slightly pale.

But there is still a soul inside, and other delicious things, which have not been completely swallowed up by the scales of fate.

At the same time, the scales of fate spit out a book with a black cover from a certain grid in the middle.

The name of that book is "Slytherin Soul Tempering Method".

……

After Lin Xia and others were brought up by Fox, they were greeted by professors from the four major colleges at the entrance.

The professors were all delighted at their safe arrival.

"I'm so glad you're all okay!"

"Little wizards, I'm proud of you!"

"You're all okay?"

Even Professor Snape, who was always very sharp-tongued, didn't say anything and just asked them to have a good rest.

Suddenly, Professor Lockhart, who was also brought up, woke up. When he saw the other professors, he asked anxiously:
"Where's the basilisk? Where's my basilisk? Is it over?"

Hermione said coldly, "Yes, Professor, it's over.

We all know that you wanted to kill Mikkel in the end, and that you wanted to use the Oblivion Charm on us, and take the credit for discovering and destroying the Basilisk!"

Lockhart smiled awkwardly, "You misunderstood. I didn't want to use the Oblivion Spell. I wanted to use the Healing Spell to restore your spirits."

Snape's arrogant voice sounded: "Lockhart, we went to your office and it was empty. Are you trying to escape?"

Lockhart shook his head quickly: "No, no, I just had something urgent to do, and I didn't leave, I was stopped by Harry and the others, and I also found a basilisk!"

Mikkel said quickly, "Harry and his friends discovered the basilisk. Professor Lockhart pointed his wand at me and threatened me to go in and explore. Also, he only knows how to cast the Forgetfulness Curse. Every wizard who explores with him will be cursed with the Forgetfulness Curse!"

Lockhart stood up and quietly stepped aside, wanting to leave the place.

He said with a smile: "Listen to my explanation, this is a misunderstanding, I..."

But the next second, Snape picked up the wand: "Faint!"

Lockhart quickly picked up his wand: "Oblige—"

Before he could finish the spell, he was shot by "Stupid" and fell into a coma again.

Hermione asked Professor McGonagall, "What will his punishment be?"

Professor McGonagall said seriously, "We will investigate thoroughly and expose all his lies. All the wealth he earned should be given to the families of those victims. He will spend his whole life in Azkaban repenting. I promise you."

Mag changed the subject: "Although you have eliminated the basilisk and prevented a conspiracy, you have violated school rules after all. I need to punish you."

The little wizard's heart was lifted up, and Ron even muttered: "This is going to be punished, it's too much..."

Harry pulled Ron back and motioned for him to stop talking.

Professor McGonagall's serious face showed a smile: "I will punish you all to go home and rest for a week, and then come back to Hogwarts to study in a week."

Lin Xia's eyes lit up, and she turned around and asked, "Dean, what about the other little wizards? The basilisk has been dealt with, will Hogwarts still be closed?"

Dean Sprout smiled and said, “Of course, everyone has to leave.

Although the basilisk has been solved, Hogwarts still needs to conduct a self-inspection. We need to thoroughly solve the hidden dangers in other places, and school will not reopen until a week later. "

The little wizard couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, you guys should go back quickly, because you have to leave early tomorrow morning by express train."

McGonagall paused, "By the way, Harry, go to the headmaster's office."

Harry looked puzzled.

Professor McGonagall said tactfully, "Didn't you want to report something to the headmaster before?"

Harry suddenly had an idea and became excited: "Yes, Professor!"

Apart from Harry, everyone returned to the common room and discussed what to do during the unexpected one-week holiday.

Ron wanted to travel because he didn't join the last family trip.

Hermione said mercilessly: "It will soon be the end of the semester. You might as well spend more time on studying. Besides, traveling also costs money. Do you have enough gold galleons?"

Draco was also asking Lin Xia about her plan.

Lin Xia said, "I plan to stay in the castle and do some special training."

Draco was thinking, since Lin Xia was working so hard, should he also hurry up and study the heir course?
