Reborn at Hogwarts - Chapter 121
c120 Chamber of Secrets!
Ivan found that the basilisk didn’t seem to affect him.
In fact, when the inexplicable force trapped him in place and the basilisk burst out of the ground, he was almost desperate.
He can’t move and can’t release the avatar state. In this case, how can he escape?
Give it a go with the basilisk?
Are you kidding me… as the old saying goes, “a man has self-knowledge”, and Ivan couldn’t be more clear about who he is.
Although he had an outstanding record of killing two adult wizards with the incarnation technique, he didn’t swell at all.
At that time, the sneak attack was successful, in fact, it relied largely on the Philosopher’s Stone ring, and the enemy knew nothing about the incarnation technique, so they could succeed in one fell swoop.
If judged by magic power, his magic power level at this time can only be regarded as half an adult wizard at most.
The basilisk is classified as the most dangerous magical animal by the Ministry of Magic. How could He De, a half-assed Ivan, dare to fight it?
What’s more, there is a snake-shaped figure watching covetously beside him.
Feeling the gaze of the basilisk, Ivan thought in his heart.
Not long after, he realized that nothing had changed?
Although I still can’t change my form, it’s only because of the abnormal magic power and elements around me, so it’s okay to shake my body a little bit.
The gaze of the basilisk did not seem to petrify him.
Ivan’s heart skipped a beat when he discovered this, he suppressed his excitement, and continued to meet the eyes of the basilisk – because he had no eyelids in the incarnation state, he had not been able to close his eyes to avoid the gaze of the basilisk.
No change.
The eye of the basilisk, which is said to kill those who directly meet its line of sight and petrify those who touch it indirectly, has no effect!
It’s the incarnation technique… In the state of elemental incarnation, I don’t have a human form, and the basilisk’s trump card has no effect on me!
Ivan quickly realized the source of the problem.
This was a real surprise.
It’s just that he didn’t have much time to express his joy. He saw Professor McGonagall send away the “Iron Triangle”, and then he raised his wand at the basilisk, and four stone pillars stood erect——
Then, the twisted snake-shaped shadow disappeared.
Ivan watched helplessly as it disappeared in front of him like a wisp of black smoke being blown away.
And almost at the same time, Professor Quirrell, who was stunned by the basilisk, opened his eyes.
He looked around with strange eyes, then stood up in a weird posture, and quietly walked behind Coach McGonagall.
Ivan’s eyes widened.
From his perspective, he could clearly see the situation in the entire bathroom, but he couldn’t see how Professor McGonagall fell to the ground.
He only saw Quirrell walking behind Mag, and in the blink of an eye, Mag went limp and lost consciousness.
Then, Quirrell walked up to Snape and said something in Snape’s ear.
Snape, who seemed to have noticed the abnormality, launched an attack immediately, but the spell hit Quirrell without a ripple, and completely lost its effect.
Snape also fell to the ground.
Quirrell stood there for a moment, then bent down, picked up Mag and Snape’s wands, and walked towards the basilisk.
At this moment, the basilisk suddenly opened its mouth wide.
A pungent stench rushed over, and the basilisk’s sickle-like fangs were exposed in front of Ivan.
Under the gaze of Ivan’s terrified but helpless eyes, the basilisk let out a hoarse roar, and then rushed towards him!
The moment it came into contact with the snake’s head, the magic power and elements in the air suddenly became active like a riot, dancing wildly beside Ivan and the basilisk.
The incarnation technique returned to normal immediately, but Ivan had no time to activate it.
For some reason, the basilisk, which became extremely manic, directly broke through the wall, landed heavily on his body, and then led him all the way down!
Go straight!
Under the terrible pressure of the basilisk, Ivan felt like a rag doll about to be thrown into a crushing machine. Although he couldn’t feel pain, he was in danger of falling apart all the time.
He felt himself being propelled by the basilisk, rushing towards the underground of Hogwarts. At first he encountered strong obstacles, the body formed by the incarnation technique was simply not enough to support him to go straight to the ground. But soon, the pressure he was under suddenly eased.
Ivan realized immediately that he had entered the pipe.
sewer pipes.
The castle and underground of Hogwarts are covered with huge pipes extending in all directions. In the original plot of “The Chamber of Secrets”, the basilisk used the pipes to wander and hunt in the castle.
At this moment, it was taking Ivan back to his lair.
Realizing this, Ivan began to struggle more violently, trying to escape the basilisk’s control.
Only at this time, he found sadly that he seemed to be sucked into the snake’s head.
The huge suction made him unable to move.
He could only be passive like this, pushed forward by the snake’s head, and rushed all the way to the deeper part of the castle.
…
Finally, the basilisk stopped.
It raised its head high, and the suction that kept Ivan from leaving disappeared with this movement. Then, it turned around and swam into the shadows, disappearing with a muffled sound.
The boy immediately fell towards the ground uncontrollably. At the last moment before landing, his body suddenly spread apart, turning into a pool of clear water and hitting the ground.
The water droplets seemed to be fixed in shape, one by one, they rolled towards all directions, and then quickly gathered together, turning into Ivan’s appearance.
After recovering his original appearance, Ivan didn’t bother to rub his head that was starting to ache from being incarnate for a long time, and immediately looked around.
He stood at one side of a long, dimly lit room. Many stone pillars engraved with coiled and entangled snakes stand tall and support the ceiling that melts in the darkness of the heights, casting long and treacherous black shadows on the entire room filled with green and mysterious atmosphere.
Clinging to the dark wall directly ahead was a statue as tall as the room itself.
Ivan had to lift his neck high to see the gigantic face above: an old, monkey-like face, with a long, sparse beard that trailed almost to the hem of the wizard’s robes carved in stone. Above, two big gray feet stood on the smooth floor of the room.
Salazar Slytherin.
This is the chamber of secrets.
Ivan took a deep breath.
Fuck…fuck!
what’s going on!
The iron triangle got together smoothly, the troll incident should have ended perfectly, and from now on, you don’t have to worry about Voldemort’s messy things… Now, why did the basilisk bring him to this place that should have been buried with the diary? In the secret room?
Something must have happened.
Ivan drew his wand from his pocket—the leather pouch was still on him, thankfully—and turned to walk out.
He has no interest in staying here for long.
However, before he could take two steps, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.
“You can’t go.”
There was a weird twist in the hoarse voice, and Ivan immediately recognized that it was the voice of the snake-like figure from before.
He stopped, turned around, and saw a figure slowly emerging from the shadows at the foot of the Slytherin statue.
A young and handsome face with a slightly sickly paleness.
Tom Riddle.
