Chapter 3 Sacrifice Myrtle!
A rusty bronze scale appeared in front of Lin Xia.
The scale had delicate and complicated patterns, engraved with scenes from the past: some people knelt on the ground to worship the pyramids, some killed animals for sacrifice, and some made pilgrimages to seek utopia...
Unfortunately, the large patches of corroded rust caused many exquisite patterns to be missing, revealing a sense of brokenness.
The soul of the basilisk was pulled by the powerful suction of the scale and separated from its body little by little. The basilisk opened its huge mouth and roared angrily, and even its soul was furious.
Unlike pulling the basilisk, the souls of Myrtle, Peeves, and the rooster had been pulled out by the scale and placed on the left end.
Peeves and the rooster screamed in panic, but their voices were locked tightly in the scale and could not be heard.
Myrtle stared at the basilisk with hatred, and said angrily and sharply: "I want it to die, I want it to die!"
Under Lin Xia's gaze, the already weak basilisk finally had its complete soul pulled out and placed on the right end of the scale.
The scale immediately turned, the right end where the basilisk was located sank and fell, and the left end where Myrtle and others were located rose and rose, and the two ends were almost 180° flat!
But after all, it was not a flat surface, and there was not a gap that could be pried.
Lin Xia used his ability without hesitation to flip the scale of fate!
This time, the right end where the basilisk was located rose rapidly, while the left end representing Myrtle fell rapidly. The closer it was to the middle point, the slower the scale swung.
In the end, the left end of the scale, with an almost imperceptible advantage, overwhelmed the right end where the basilisk was located!
Instantly, the soul of the basilisk collapsed inch by inch, and the external shell also disintegrated silently.
Lin Xia looked at this scene, and many feelings surged in her heart. She turned the scales of fate over, and the weak defeated the strong. The basilisk was sacrificed as a sacrifice to use the scales of fate.
A strong energy surged in her body. The scales of fate absorbed the sacrifice and fed part of the energy back to her, making Lin Xia feel omnipotent.
Her eyes were slightly cold, suppressing this false sense of power.
Myrtle, Peeves and Rooster on the other side of the scale, although they turned defeat into victory, they might not survive.
Even if their fate was rewritten by the scales of fate, they were weak. Their souls had been absorbed a lot in the confrontation with the basilisk. In addition, when their souls were placed on the scales of fate, they also needed to be absorbed by the scales to absorb a certain amount of power.
Therefore, the moment the basilisk completely disintegrated into nothingness, the souls of Myrtle, Peeves and Rooster also collapsed and destroyed.
On the scales, Myrtle smiled at Lin Xia with relief. It was a brilliant smile that she had never seen before, as if she had cleared away the clouds.
Lin Xia recognized her mouth shape——
"Thank you."
She was stunned, watching Myrtle's body turn into nothingness bit by bit, with mixed feelings.
Not everything can be used as a weight in the scale of fate, it must be two closely related people or things.
If she wants to fulfill Myrtle's last wish, she must use the scale of fate to sacrifice the basilisk to achieve the purpose of complete destruction.
But in the process of using the scale of fate, she must also take out a person or thing related to the basilisk as a weight.
Myrtle died because of the basilisk, and there is this layer of cause and effect, which is enough for her to use as a weight.
As for using Peeves as a weight, Lin Xia snorted lightly.
She adheres to the principle of "I will not offend others if they don't offend me". If someone provokes her, she will not retaliate on the spot, but will make them disappear one by one when the time is right.
Watching the souls of the basilisk, Myrtle, Peeves, and the rooster gradually disappear, Lin Xia's heart slowly became calm.
She breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to leave the cage.
Suddenly, her face changed, and she felt a repulsive and corrosive force exerted on her soul, and her soul became weak at a rapid speed.
At this time, the scale of fate, which had absorbed the sacrifice, shook and spewed out bursts of mist, representing the green mist of the basilisk, the golden mist of myrtle, the white mist of Peeves, and a trace of barely detectable red mist entangled together.
After a while, the mist dissipated, and three items remained on the scale.
The two huge fangs of the basilisk, the bracelet as gorgeous as a rooster's feather tail, and an extremely pure golden bead.
Lin Xia's mind moved, and she took out the golden bead.
The bead sent a mysterious attraction, with intimacy and warmth, sucking in her fragile soul that was exposed and without physical protection.
With the protection of the bead, the corrosive force that the castle repelled her disappeared.
Lin Xia thought about it, and controlled the golden bead to fly out of the secret room. Before leaving, he did not forget to close the secret room again and clean up the mess.
In Hogwarts, a Gryffindor student rushed into the bathroom.
He looked very anxious. If he was slower, he might miss the bus back home. But he had a stomachache at this time.
If Myrtle had not disappeared, she would definitely rush out and scream to remind him: "Asshole, you entered the women's bathroom!"
The student hurriedly washed his hands, picked up the black suitcase and ran out. He did not notice that a small golden bead had mixed into the interlayer of his suitcase.
"Hurry, hurry, the train is about to leave!" The strong Hagrid maintained order on the platform to prevent some lost lambs from catching the last train.
A student came panting, was picked up by Hagrid and thrown into the train.
The next second, a "puff" sounded, and the Hogwarts Express officially started.
Hagrid took off his hat and waved to the students, "Merry Christmas!"
Hogwarts is a greenhouse that protects students very well, but once they leave, news from the outside world spreads like a storm. Even on the train, the students can feel the seriousness of the situation.
"Daily Prophet"
"The mysterious man leads his army of Death Eaters, claiming to create a pure wizarding world. The first wizarding war is about to come!"
"The Dark Lord: Destroy Muggles and all people and creatures who cannot use magic. Wizards are born noble!"
"The Quibbler"
"The Dark Lord uses cruel methods to make people surrender, and another ancient family has fallen - the Malfoy family announced that they will join the Dark Lord and become Death Eaters!"
"A storm is coming, and the First Wizarding World War is about to break out? Can the Order of the Phoenix formed by Dumbledore resist Voldemort's Death Eater army? He is the only person Voldemort fears!"
When some students saw this report, they couldn't help but trembled, held their heads in their hands, and didn't even dare to amplify their voices.
He said cautiously in an extremely shocked and disbelieving tone: "They actually published the name of the mysterious person?"
The student shook his head, as if this could shake the fear out of his mind, "I don't want to die, I definitely don't want to live."
As the train passed through Derbyshire, England, a student's black suitcase reflected a faint golden light under the sun.
Hidden in the golden bead, Lin Xia's fateful compass in her mind moved slightly and settled on the "asking for fortune" column.
[Sign up]: If you go to Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire, England, you will get a chance to be reincarnated, but you have to wait for more than seven months to ensure your family's wealth.
[Lucky Lotus]: Go to the residential area of Islington, north of the Thames River in London, and you will have the opportunity to be reincarnated. There is no need to wait, and your family will have no worries about food and clothing.
[Win the lottery]: Follow the owner of the suitcase to go home, and you will have the opportunity to be reincarnated. There is no need to wait, and the family will be safe and stable.
[Lottery]: Leave the carriage, kill Death Eaters, stand out, and gain the opportunity to be reincarnated. You will be rich and powerful, and deepen your connection with the world. However, the road will be dangerous and both good and bad will coexist.
