I Was Spotted By Grindelwald and Went To Hogwarts

The things here were obviously left by Slytherin to his descendants, so why did he leave behind such a 'biological bomb'? Moreover, in terms of his experience, he never explained the basilisk in the stone chamber.

Or maybe I got the order wrong and should have discovered the secret room first and then the stone room? But Gormlaith didn't get any specific information?

No, then why is there a secret room spell here...that's weird...

Fortunately, the basilisk looked very docile. Even without the command from Parseltongue, it just communicated with Dave through biological instincts and remained obedient without moving.

Sean continued to wander around the stone chamber. He remembered that Gormlaith also taught him another Parselmouth phrase, which was used to open the so-called treasure.

There are wooden tables placed everywhere in the stone room. The decoration here looks very simple, and Slytherin doesn't seem to be a person who likes to enjoy himself.

There were several rusty crucibles in the corner. Sean stretched his head and took a look. There was only a layer of black stuff left inside. There are still many crystal bottles in the box beside them, but the wooden stoppers on them have been corroded and the liquid inside has completely evaporated.

Shawn rummaged through a few other rickety wooden frames and found something.

It was a thick piece of parchment with Slytherin's unique narrow font on it.

"Research and Communication on the Habits of Basilisks"

The first line reads: The feasibility of natural reproduction of basilisks

Sean: "..."

Do you still want this dangerous magical animal to reproduce naturally? !

In today's wizarding world, there are only a few descriptions of basilisks. From the information Sean knows, he only knows that this thing is a male egg hatched from a toad.

In view of the danger of the Basilisk, even dark wizards who try to hatch it in violation of the ban will often die of their own pets because they do not understand Parseltongue.

As a result, this terrifying creature has gradually turned into a legend.

Slytherin recorded in detail the hatching method of the basilisk.

"A rooster with a lifespan of seven years (actual testing, seven years is the only criterion) lays a rooster's egg when Sirius is shining in the sky, and then puts it under the body of a toad, and a normal individual basilisk can be hatched."

“The rooster is preferably a rooster produced in Sussex. When selecting, pay attention to the size of the rooster’s comb. The comb of a one-year-old rooster needs to be the size of half an adult man’s hand. The bigger the better, but it should not exceed the size of an entire palm. "

"The feathers of the rooster should not be mixed with white, and the tail feathers should be bright."

"When Sirius shines, the rooster must be placed in a high place, but it must not be directly illuminated by the moonlight, and the toad responsible for hatching must not be allowed to see Sirius."

"The choice of toad will affect the strength of the basilisk's venom. You can feed the toad a stimulant potion before hatching to increase its excitement (do not overdose, half an ounce is the limit)."

"When hatching, if the toad shows uneasiness, stop hatching immediately. The toad's uneasiness may cause the basilisk to hatch poorly, and it will also affect the IQ of the born basilisk."

"After the basilisk hatches, immediately place it in a sturdy container without opening its eyes. Newly born basilisks are not very intelligent and have not yet learned how to close their eyes. Even if they use Parseltongue control, they are prone to accidents. .”

"The growth cycle of the basilisk is more than five years. Generally, in the seventh to eighth year, the basilisk will grow into a standard fifty-foot-long adult."

"The way to tell the gender of a basilisk is to look at its brain. The male basilisk has a red feather on its head."

"The basilisk itself has no reproductive instinct. As a magical creature, it does not seem to have the instinct of all animals to continue the race. The basilisk will not be in estrus throughout the year, but male basilisks will fight with each other, but not with females. "

"The above is the experience gained from hatching seventeen basilisks. Among them, the probability of a rooster laying an egg is exactly one-tenth, and the probability of a toad being restless during hatching is as high as half. A total of sixty-two rooster eggs were hatched, and the probability of stillbirth is high. .”

After reading only a small part of the content, the corners of Sean's mouth twitched.

Slytherin hatched a total of seventeen basilisks? ! Seventeen articles...

Moreover, Slytherin didn't mention how to deal with those basilisks at all. Sean suspected that Slytherin might not want to deal with those basilisks at all... This guy wouldn't release the extra basilisks into nature, would he? ? !

Crazy, crazy...

Sean managed to calm down and continued to check the following content.

"There are three ways to kill a basilisk: a powerful body, terrifying poison, and a gaze that will kill you if you look directly at it. The physical strength can be ignored. A larger part of the effect of the huge body is to provide strong vitality and high-level magic resistance ( After testing, the magic resistance far exceeds that of the troll, and is on par with the fire dragon - the fire dragon is a Welsh green dragon.)"

“Focus on documenting the power of the other two approaches.”

"Venom. The venom of the basilisk seems to be inherited from the toad. This toxin is far more powerful than high-level poisons (the experimental subject is a giant monster. One ounce of venom is injected, which is about the amount of poison the basilisk can detoxify at one time. The giant monster survives for five minutes. .)”

"In addition, the venom of the basilisk can be preserved for a long time. If stored in a dark and dry place, it is estimated that it can be preserved for more than ten years."

"Note: The feasibility of basilisk venom as a raw material for potions has not been found yet."

"Gaze. The gaze of the basilisk is not a biological ability, but belongs to the magical instinct of magical creatures. But due to the danger of gaze, I can only communicate with the basilisk through Parseltongue and use animals for experiments to draw conclusions."

"Activation conditions: The basilisk must look into the eyes of the creature. There cannot be any obstructions. If the basilisk's eyes are seen through a mirror or water, the creature will be petrified."

"The distance between the basilisk and the basilisk will also affect the power of the gaze. If it is far away and there is no obstruction, the creature will not die immediately."

"At the same time, the will of the basilisk will affect the power of the gaze. To put it simply, the basilisk decides to look at the creature, which will exert the greatest power of the gaze. If other creatures see the basilisk's eyes, the basilisk does not If you pay attention, the power will be weakened - but because the power is too strong, the weakened effect will not have any real impact."

"Method of rescue: As mentioned before, seeing the eyes of the basilisk from a distance will not kill you immediately, but the gaze of the basilisk is like a magic spell that pulls the soul. The distance only lengthens the time of pulling the soul. The person who sees the eyes will eventually die. After death, the soul must leave the body. There is only one way to avoid it - look into the basilisk's eyes through the mirror, actively petrify yourself and wait for rescue."

"There is no way to survive looking directly into the eyes of a basilisk up close. To date, there are no creatures that have survived, not one."
