Chapter 242 240Choice and the Acromantula
Of course, there is no quota left to become a god.
Perhaps Slytherin was not aware of these things at the time when the inheritance was left. After all, among the four founders, only the Hufflepuff family was from the Presbyterian Church, and although Slytherin is still a big family, And he has a very powerful force in the magic world, and can compete with the Presbyterian Church, but because of this, he has never thought that Slytherin has joined the Presbyterian Council, so he naturally does not know about the quota.
According to Hufflepuff, they only learned about the status of gods after Ravenclaw died and all three of them entered the realm of demigods, and therefore made choices according to their respective paths.
Feeney closed the notes in his hand with emotion, looked at the room filled with bookshelves and books, and shook his head slightly.
Compared to the inheritance methods of the other three, Slytherin's inheritance is actually more like Ravenclaw's. After all, so much knowledge completely caters to Ravenclaw's philosophy, at least in the eyes of others. ,
However, if you think about it from another angle, Slytherin’s philosophy is bloodline and inheritance. The reason why a pure-blood family is strong is not because of their bloodline, but because of their inheritance. The inheritance of big families is often Books and knowledge. From this point of view, it is very reasonable for this place to be the inheritance of Slytherin.
While feeling emotional, Feeney was also worried.
What should he do with the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets? You must know that the basilisk is a very large creature. It doesn't matter if it is a child. You can also find a way to hide it somewhere and take it out of Hogwarts. However, Nowadays, Basque's size makes it difficult to take him away without alerting others.
The books in this room can be taken away in the suitcase carried by Puff, but Basque cannot.
Finny's suitcase is similar to Newt's suitcase. It is also very large. It can accommodate many magical animals, but it cannot accommodate adult fire dragons, giants, and basilisks.
But he still couldn't leave Basque here. You know, the secret room time in the original book will begin next semester.
And the little wizards attacked after Riddle's soul opened the Chamber of Secrets were actually random or unlucky encounters. There is no way to be sure, but that ethereal and cute little girl Luna is coming to Hogwart next year. Ci went to school, and Feeney was unwilling to let such a hidden danger still exist in this school.
Of course, if the basilisk cannot be taken away, Finny can also visit the Malfoy family during the holidays, and then take the diary from Lucius. After all, in his original plan, this holiday was to put it on display. The Malfoy family. When Finny defended the Malfoy family on the express train at the beginning of this semester, he was already telling the wizarding world that the Malfoy family is one of the powers of the Black family.
Things must be arranged during the holidays. Even if they can't reach an agreement, the Malfoy family will have no choice but to board the Black family's chariot. Of course, the possibility of an agreement is greater.
However, Feeney really didn't want to ask for the diary directly.
After all, it was a Horcrux, and it was the first Horcrux made by the mysterious man. I don’t know whether it was because of the special nature of the Horcrux, or because the thing was a diary, or because there was something wrong with the magic the mysterious man used at the time. ,
In short, as a Horcrux, this diary is completely different from other Horcruxes. Other Horcruxes can only affect the minds of those who come into contact, making them irritable and violent.
However, this diary has its own wisdom and memory, and can restore its power by absorbing blood, directly affecting the person in contact, directly interfering with or controlling the person in contact, and even using the Imperius Curse on the person in contact.
Finny, who was unwilling to touch even a few other Horcruxes, was naturally unwilling to touch this thing that was full of problems.
Therefore, the first choice at this time is to take away Basque, the basilisk. If it is no longer in Hogwarts, then it will not matter whether the diary will affect Hogwarts like the original. Problem, after all, there is no danger in the castle, and the diary can be used as a Horcrux to be handed over to Dumbledore next year. With the Hufflepuff Gold Cup handed over in advance this year, Finny is already rich with two souls. device.
According to the original agreement with Dumbledore, a Horcrux can be exchanged for a request. The gold cup can be used, but the diary can still be carefully planned.
In fact, Feeney has another option, which is to destroy the diary directly at Malfoy's house. Then everything will not be a problem. However, maybe Dumbledore wants to get some clues from the diary.
Well, why does Dumbledore want to care about Phineas?
Then it was decided to destroy the diary directly and get it over with.
After thinking about it, Feeney suddenly felt at ease. Without any hint of ill-intention, he snapped his fingers with a smile on his face.
"Puff, take all these books away."
Puff appeared in response, and then started to work. He put the intact books into Feeney's suitcase. Some of the damaged ones would be repaired with magic. As for the completely damaged ones, he would write down the names and see Feeney. Is there the same book in your library? If so, don’t care. If not, write down the name and let others find a copy of this book.
As for Feeney, he walked out of the Slytherin statue. Basque felt the shock of Feeney coming out, and he immediately raised his head and asked hissingly,
"food,,,,,"
Feeney was a little speechless. Who would have thought that this big killer left by Slytherin was like a foodie, looking at Feeney eagerly, waiting for him to feed him.
Feeney thought for a moment and asked,
"Basque, is there only one exit here?"
Basque nodded and hissed,
"Yes, Salazar left an exit, right behind the stone statue."
After hearing this, Feeney went around to the back of the stone statue. Sure enough, he found a very hidden hole behind the stone statue, but it was very small and could only pass through humans, and there were some restrictions on it.
It is very difficult to get in and out, and you need to use a special spell left by Slytherin.
Finny naturally found this spell in the room among the stone statues, so this restriction was in vain for him.
This is actually a back door left by Slytherin.
You must know that in the era when Hogwarts was founded, Muggles were still hunting down wizards. As long as they were found to be wizards, whether they were adult wizards, wizards, witches, or young wizards, even squibs who had connections with wizards would be kidnapped. burned with fire on the cross,
The original purpose of this school was to protect young wizards from being discovered by Muggles, and at the same time to guide young wizards to control their independent magic so as not to become Obscurus.
However, this castle is a very large building after all, and its sudden disappearance will definitely attract the attention of some people, even if those people have been cast by Slytherin and others using the Forgetting Curse,
So just in case, the four founders left behind their own means of protection, that is, back-ups.
Gryffindor arranged a large number of stone puppets at the castle gate and developed a special magic. At critical times, the principal and vice-principal of Hogwarts have the authority to summon and control them to protect Hogwarts. ,
Hufflepuff left a large number of magical plants and some magical creatures that signed contracts with the castle in the Forbidden Forest outside the castle, including unicorns, and kept a large number of house elves in the castle. The key is Sometimes they will go to the battlefield and exert a power far beyond that of wizards.
Ravenclaw cast magic on the stairs in the castle, allowing them to move at will, hindering the Muggles from attacking the castle, and buying time for the wizards in the castle.
However, later, this arrangement affected the daily life of the wizards in the castle, and she canceled it. Only Graffindor thought it was a great invention, and going up and down the stairs every day was a different adventure, so she kept it. Down, what is now the moving staircase in Gryffindor Tower.
As for Slytherin, he cultivated two basilisks to protect the school. At the same time, he left a backdoor in his secret room so that wizards could rush out here at critical moments. The basilisk was used to protect the school.
Although later the four of them were greedy and ate a basilisk. However, one was still reserved to protect the school. This was the reason why Slytherin established the Chamber of Secrets. It was not a ridiculous reason to purify the blood. As mentioned before, Slytherin respected Muggles very much, and when the wizard was muggled During the Muggle siege, wizards had begun to hate Muggles and called them Muggles.
Thinking like this, Feeney opened the passage and walked out slowly.
Although the passage is very dark, it is not damp at all, and there are no insects, ants, or other creatures. It is very clean. It seems that the purpose here may not only be used for escape.
Sure enough, after getting a certain distance in front of Feeney, he discovered the real function of this place, a huge space with a lot of moldy food - this was originally a safe house, a place for food storage. Let go of the Muggles' plan to surround and not attack, trapping the wizards to death.
Although Feeney didn't understand why the wizards were not allowed to use apparation to go to other places to get food and bring it back instead of stocking up on food, the role here was still obvious.
As for Feeney taking this passage, he certainly had his purpose.
According to the information I read about the Chamber of Secrets in one of Slytherin's last notebooks, outside this secret passage is the Forbidden Forest, and it is very close to where Hagrid keeps the Acromantulas.
Acromantula is a food that Basilisk likes very much, and it is perfect for Basque food.
After walking out of the tunnel, Feeney looked back. The entrance to the tunnel was very hidden. If Feeney hadn't just come out of it, he wouldn't have noticed it. The same magic as the platform at King's Cross Station was cast on it. Perfectly hidden in the mountain,
Feeney had not been to the Acromantula's nest before, but this did not prevent him from finding them. After all, Acromantula is also a kind of spider. Although they are very big and are five-star dangerous creatures, if they are spiders, they will have the same habits, such as liking moist and dark environments.
So Feeney’s destination is also those places,
Seeing that the surrounding environment was obviously dimming, and the light and air were filled with a smell of rancidity and moisture, Feeney knew that his destination had arrived.
It was precisely because of this that he became more vigilant,
Acromantulas are very dangerous creatures. Like other spiders, their legs are covered with fine hairs, which allow them to keenly sense vibrations around them. Their multi-angle compound eyes also allow them to They can quickly find prey in the dark and stare at them, although this is also the reason why they will be killed by the basilisk - because the 365's compound eyes that have no blind spots and cannot be closed cannot avoid the basilisk's gaze. The basilisk's gaze will kill you if you touch it,
The huge and powerful chelicerae can easily tear apart the body of prey, and it also contains very powerful venom.
As long as it is injected into the prey, the prey's internal organs and bones will begin to melt, and then become entangled in their tough spider silk, sucked by them, and finally throw the skin outside the cave.
However, this extremely dangerous creature that will die as soon as it is touched is actually not that scary.
The biggest feature and the most dangerous thing about Acromantulas is that they are caused by sneak attacks without the knowledge of wizards, because their lethality is often fatal when wizards discover them.
However, Finny's target is them, and with his previous preparations, the Acromantula is not so dangerous now.
He found a slightly open area and began to wave his wand, clearing out a battlefield.
He didn't want to fight these yin/bi/ creatures in groups in the woods.
In fact, when Feeney set foot on this land, two Acromantulas discovered his traces and followed him quietly, using their eight-legged legs to sneak up on him. close to their prey.
Finny suddenly turned around and cast a cutting spell. From a tree at that angle, an Acromantula, which had been split into two parts by the cutting spell, fell down.
Feeney whistled briskly, took out another box from his robe pocket, and dropped it on the ground.
The moment the box touches the ground, it instantly becomes larger.
Finny waved his left hand briskly, and the Acromantula floated and was thrown into the box.
Just after he finished this action, there was a dense rustling sound in the surrounding woods.
Obviously, it was a large number of Acromantulas trying to surround Feini.
Because the surrounding trees had been cut down by Feeney, he could clearly see the Acromantulas crawling out of the woods.
The most dangerous sneak attack attribute of this creature was abolished by Fini.
