Chapter 78 The Little Basilisk
·
Wo Bu Geng Xin
Luke stared at the extra 'Transfiguration' in the skill bar for a while.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through my mind, but none of them could be picked up.
Is there anything special about Transfiguration?Why did it pop up suddenly today?Is there anything special about the transfiguration practiced today?
Questions emerged one after another, but Luke could only guess without definite answers.
But he still remembered that the basilisk was about to hatch.Now is not the time to think about these things.
So he quickly took out the basilisk egg from the system's warehouse.
Then another cock was brought out.
This is what he had prepared before school started.After all, he already knew that the basilisk would hatch in the school, so why didn't he prepare something in advance.Fortunately, the system space can store live items, although if it is a magical animal, it seems that it can only store eggs and the like.
Moreover, the creatures that are taken into the space are not in a state of stopping.For this chicken, Luke would take out something to feed it from time to time.
The cock that was taken out was alive and kicking and seemed to be in good spirits.It stared at the basilisk's egg with burning eyes, and seemed to be very curious about it.
Luke looked at the thing too.
The eggshell seems to be covered with light white scales, which are dotted with purple bright spots.
Overall it looks much smaller than a dragon egg.The things that come out of the hatch will not be very big.
This is one of the reasons why Luke chose to hatch here.If it was really a big guy, his first choice would definitely be the Forbidden Forest.
As time gradually approached.Luke could feel that emotional dust began to appear around the egg.
So he concentrated and put on a pair of special glasses for himself by the way.The function of this pair of glasses is to isolate the influence of some magic that is launched with the eyes on people.
Then Luke placed another mirror in front of him.He faced the mirror, and watched the hatching of the basilisk eggs through the mirror and eyes.At the same time, he waved his wand, and his mind controlled the flow of magic power.
"Out of body! (Imperio!)"
So the cock visibly dazed for a moment, then went stiff.
Luke doesn't have much aversion to the three Unforgivable Curses.
Especially after he got 'emotional mastery'.If he wanted to kill, he would directly control his killing intent to surge up.If you want to control, turn up your desire for control.
And... He feels that the skills given by the system require relatively less investment in feelings and emotions.
This is his conclusion from the emotional comparison between observing himself practicing the Fire Curse and Taylor using the Fire Curse.
When he taught Hermione some regular spells, he also chose the way of using magic that he learned from the system.It does appear that there is room for practical manipulation.
I don't know what the difference is in this magic.Looks like it's really worth looking into.
Thinking of this, Luke heard a crackling sound.
Glanced at the egg.Sure enough, cracks began to appear on the eggshell.
Luke took a deep breath, concentrating, and was ready to control the cock to sing a song at any time.
The eggshell gradually cracked, and the purple spots on it became brighter and brighter.Luke seemed to faintly hear the beating of his heart.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but Luke even felt that the flow of magic power in the entire Room of Requirement was speeding up, as if he was wary of the basilisk that was about to be born.
The short wait is not long, but every second that passes makes people more nervous.
Apart from the creator of the basilisk, 'Helpo the Vile', Slytherin is probably the wizard who has the most profound study of the basilisk.The Gunter family inherited this part of the research results.
Newborn basilisks are not as dangerous as adult basilisks.This is reflected in that as long as you don't look directly into its eyes, it can't even petrify others, at most it can only slow down people's thinking.
This time will last about a week.Depending on the individual, there will be slight differences.The difference in the quality of the food fed later, as well as the quality of the living environment, will also have an impact on this time.
Of course, snake eyes have different effects on different objects.Giants and the like can even ignore the gaze of the nascent basilisk.
As for why this data was obtained, and how to achieve such a level of accuracy...it's hard to say.
Luke doesn't dwell on these past events, either.Because it makes no sense.
The eggshell was broken little by little, and finally, with a 'click', a little snake broke the eggshell and poked its head out from the top of the egg.When she pokes her head to the left, the eggshell imbalance deflects directly to the left.The moment her head touched the ground, she quickly pulled her body out of the eggshell, then glanced around, saw Luke's figure, and then swam towards Luke without hesitation.
Luke saw her appearance, it was a thin little snake, about as thick as a finger, relatively long, and now it looked about fifty centimeters.
The body is dark green with bright purple accents.There is a light purple fine line above each eye, like a slender eyebrow.
Luke was amazed, to be honest, he had never seen a portrait of a basilisk.Those portraits of the family are very realistic.Although the juvenile basilisk is small in size, its appearance is not much different from that of an adult basilisk.
It is nothing more than a bright red feather growing from the head of an adult male basilisk.
But the little basilisk in front of him was completely different.Adjectives such as hideous, terrifying, and vicious cannot be used on her.
When used on her, it should be cute, elegant, and gentle.
Luke laughed, is this really a basilisk?
The little snake quickly swam towards Luke as if seeing a relative, and then quickly coiled up along Luke's arm.
She looked at Luke with extremely intimate eyes, stuck out her head and rubbed gently on Luke's head.
Luke was stunned for a moment, unable to understand why this little thing was so close to him.There is no defense at all.Even if it is explained by first-sight theory, it is not scientific.
Luke couldn't help reaching out, trying to get the little thing off of Immediate's face first.
The basilisk is poisonous, and the venom of a newborn basilisk can easily kill an underage human cub.
Unfortunately, Luke is just such a human cub.
It's hard to say whether the little basilisk can control itself well.According to the experimental records, the individual differences of this thing are huge.Some basilisks have brains, and some basilisks have no brains.
Of course the latter predominates.
Although Luke doesn't think his basilisk belongs to the latter, it's better to be careful.
And the moment his fingertips touched the little basilisk, a new panel appeared in front of his eyes.
Luke was quickly drawn to the panel.
【Name: to be named
Race: Basilisk (Snake King)
gender: female
Features: Poisonous, Snake Eyes, Self-Control, Intelligent Creatures, Special Forms
Remarks: This is a special basilisk, she is very smart, because she was born with your magic power, she has a natural affection for you.And absolutely loyal.She can freely control her snake eyes, you don't have to worry about her eyes hurting you.But be careful with her venom.If you don't want to lose your life.She still has a bright future.It will also bring you enough surprises in the future.Please choose the breeding method you think is most suitable.But remember.Your choice determines your future. 】
[Please name your pet as soon as possible. 】
Luke read the system introduction in detail, and quickly reflected in his mind what this cloudy thing meant. .
"The ability of venom is stronger than that of normal basilisks. It can freely control its snake eye ability. It has high enough intelligence and can further 'evolve'..."
Luke looked strange.
"Basilisk, is it really worthy of comparison with her?"
Luke didn't even know what to say, but overall, this was an enhanced version of the basilisk, and it wasn't a little bit enhanced.It can only be said that it is a pet produced by the system.Nothing to say about high quality.
Luke touched the little basilisk lightly, thought deeply, and then smiled.
"I'll call you Doris."
"To be named" on the system panel changed to "Doris".
The little basilisk seemed to like the name, so she slid right into Luke's arms and wrapped it around Luke's neck a few times.
Luke didn't stop either.He has the fullest trust in the system.So the system says that Doris is absolutely loyal to Luke, so Luke has no doubts at all.
"Come down."
He spoke in snake language.
Doris tilted her head, and looked at her master with some puzzlement.
Seeing her innocent expression, Luke was stunned for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Come in your pocket first, and don't let others see you for the time being."
Doris spat out the letter, then plunged into the pocket in Luke's arms seemingly reluctantly.
Luke watched the little guy's movements and couldn't help but smile.
But it was only for a moment.The manipulated chicken was taken back into the space.Its mission has also been accomplished.Luke could feed it to Doris some other day, or give it to Hagrid.He kept a flock of chickens.
Of course, this mainly depends on Doris' appetite.
After taking back the eggshell and all the debris, Luke was ready to open the door and go out.
But what surprised him was that the door was pushed open.
The door didn't move...
Luke raised his head and looked around. The room was still the same, and even the furnishings hadn't changed a bit.But the moment Luke pushed the door open.He felt that the magic flow in this room had changed.
The original circulation has become converging in one direction.
A large amount of magic power gathered in the depths of the room.In that corner, a door appeared at some point.
It was a gorgeous stone door, decorated with golden feathers around it, the door handle could be twisted, and it was a raven fluttering its wings.
The whole door appeared naturally and existed abruptly.
It was short of writing "Please come in" on the door.
Doris poked her head out of Luke's pocket again.She felt a strange flow of magic.
But before she could see clearly, Luke pressed her head back with his index finger.
"Hate!"
Doris's childish voice sounded muffled in her pocket.
Luke thought at first that the little guy couldn't speak yet, but now it seemed that the little guy just didn't speak.
But it's not a big deal either.
Luke stood there quietly, looking at the door, motionless.
There's no point in moving forward.
And there were no more changes to that door, and the door behind Luke still couldn't be opened.
This person seems to be more energetic than ever.None intend to back down.
So in the Room of Responsiveness, fell into a kind of confrontational silence.
But the silence on their side does not mean that other people are also silent.
In Ravenclaw's lounge, it was just as usual, with a melancholy face, Mrs. Gray, who was in a daze, stood up abruptly as if she had been startled by something.
Some eaglets who were reading in the break room were taken aback by her reaction.Then he looked at her strangely.
"Mrs. Grey, what happened?"
Ravenclaw's prefect, Penelope stepped forward and asked.
And Mrs. Gray just stood there blankly, with a shocked expression on her face, and ignored Penello's meaning.
But Penello watched the quiver of her lips.
It seemed to hear a little sound.
"Mother, mother..."
But after all, not a complete word was uttered.
After that, she seemed to finally come to her senses, and after glancing at Penello, her expression gradually returned to calm.
"I'm all right, Miss Clearwater."
After speaking, she floated up, passed through the ceiling, and flew to nowhere.
A group of Ravenclaw students watched their ghost leave in a strange state, looked at each other for a while, but didn't know what to say.But after a while, they were still immersed in their books.
Compared with the whereabouts of their ghosts, they are still more concerned, and they have not seen any knowledge points in their books.
So in the blink of an eye, Ravenclaw's lounge quickly returned to tranquility.
Only a few senior students who have always had a good relationship with Mrs. Gray are still worried about what happened to Mrs. Gray.
The headmaster's office was noisy.
The portraits of the previous principals seemed to be catching up with a big fair, and they spoke angrily, you said yours, he said his, it looked like a mess.
Dumbledore sat alone in his chair, his expression still calm, as if nothing had happened.
"Dumbledore, aren't you curious?"
I don't know which headmaster suddenly brought the topic to Dumbledore.
"Every one of us knows the mystery of this school, and we all have part of the authority of this school. But it never completely obeys the principal. It only helps the principal within the principal's authority."
"Don't you want to know how to obtain the remaining permissions?"
Thousands of thoughts flashed through my mind, but none of them could be picked up.
Is there anything special about Transfiguration?Why did it pop up suddenly today?Is there anything special about the transfiguration practiced today?
Questions emerged one after another, but Luke could only guess without definite answers.

Glanced at the egg.Sure enough, cracks began to appear on the eggshell.
Luke took a deep breath, concentrating, and was ready to control the cock to sing a song at any time.
