Chapter 193: Basilisk Exhibition

In the bathroom on the third floor, the students of the Auror training class were reluctant to leave. They were nervously waiting for news from the two professors.

Harry stood in the crowd, his face full of anxiety, and kept looking towards the entrance of the Chamber of Secrets.

Since the two professors left, Myrtle has been chattering to everyone about how she was murdered, which made Harry feel more and more uneasy.

You know, the basilisk's eyes are extremely dangerous, and just one glance at them can kill someone.

What will the professors do with the basilisk?

Do you need to fight a basilisk blindfolded?

But if we do this, how can we accurately deal with the basilisk's attack?

It's really worrying...

The two professors who went down were both his closest and most trusted professors at Hogwarts, and he really didn't want to see the professors get hurt in the slightest.

Just as Harry was daydreaming, he heard the sound of wizard robes fluttering in the pipe.

His eyes lit up and he immediately stood up straight, staring at the cave entrance with burning eyes.

Soon, two figures flew out from the pipe. They were Sebastian and Snape.

They rode on their broomsticks, looking calm and composed, as if they had just completed a very ordinary job.

Great, both professors seem to be safe and sound.

Harry's heart was finally at ease.

Before he had time to ask the two professors for details, he saw a huge basilisk slowly rising from the pipe.

Although the basilisk's eyes were covered by a patch, its huge body in the ice crystal still shocked everyone present.

Looking at the basilisk in front of her, Professor McGonagall felt a little scared for her students.

On Halloween, only Filch's cat was petrified, and no little wizard was killed.

This is really Merlin's blessing!

At this moment, the little wizards' eyes widened as big as copper bells and they all screamed in surprise.

"Merlin's beard! That's... a basilisk?! Is it dead?"

"It's terrifying. It's too big. How did the professors defeat it?"

"Oh my god, if I met it on Halloween night, I would definitely die right there. I don't even need to look into its eyes, it would scare me to death."

......

The little wizards were talking about it, and some brave little wizards even walked forward and tried to observe all the details of the basilisk up close.

Hearing everyone's discussion, Sebastian jumped off his broom and replied with a smile.

"The basilisk is not dead, but it has fallen into a deep sleep and will not wake up for a while. Don't worry."

"The bathroom was too crowded, so I took the basilisk to the open space in front of the castle so that everyone could see it clearly."

With that, Sebastian waved his wand and walked out with the basilisk.

For a moment, the whole Hogwarts was in an uproar.

The news spread throughout the castle as quickly as the wind, and students flocked from every corner, pouring into the open space in front of the castle like a tide.

The huge body of the basilisk looked particularly ferocious in the sunlight. Although its body was frozen in ice and motionless, its inherent deterrent power still frightened the surrounding students.

They were all discussing how this huge creature had survived in the secret room for a thousand years and how it had been subdued by the professors.

Glancing at the students around him, Sebastian raised his wand and waved it gently, bringing the basilisk down steadily to the ground.

The ice crystals on its body also disappeared, and its scales emitted a cold luster under the sunlight.

"Everyone, pay attention!" Sebastian's voice rang out in the open space, carrying a hint of majesty that could not be disobeyed.

"This serpent monster is still sleeping. You can observe it, but don't get close to it, and don't try to touch it, especially its eye mask."

In order to prevent any naughty little wizards from ignoring his warnings and flipping over the basilisk's eye patch, Sebastian waved his wand and drew a circle of age lines around the basilisk.

In this way, any wizard under the age of 20 who enters will be kicked out of the circle.

After doing all this, Sebastian came out of the crowd and chatted with the professors of various subjects who had come.

Professor Kettleburn did not join the professors' discussion, but walked straight to the basilisk with Hagrid.

They kept stroking the basilisk's scales, making the surrounding little wizards envious.

.......................

After an afternoon of demonstrations and media interviews, Sebastian sent the basilisk to a snake magical animal farm under Swann Alchemy in the evening.

After returning home and washing up in the evening, Sebastian lazily lay on the sofa and rested his head on Mia's legs.

He said in a coquettish tone: "I'm really tired today. Please help me massage my head, otherwise I can't hold on any longer."

Mia smiled, looked down at his face which looked like he was enjoying himself, and began to gently massage his temple with her fingertips.

"The Auror training class you lead is amazing! They can even find Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets."

"Of course!" Sebastian snorted complacently, "Don't you see who I am? It's easy for me to find a secret room."

He opened his eyes, turned around and got into a more comfortable position on Mia's legs, and said with a beaming expression.

"To be honest, we also found Slytherin's notebook in the Chamber of Secrets."

Mia became interested and stopped what she was doing. There was a hint of curiosity and surprise in her eyes: "Notebook? What's written on it? Is it Slytherin's unique skill?"

"It records all the experimental steps of Slytherin's improvement of Animagus." Sebastian deliberately slowed down his speech, looking forward to her reaction.

"Animagus?" Mia's interest was completely piqued.

Her eyes lit up and she asked doubtfully, "How is he going to improve it and increase the success rate of Animagus?"

Sebastian couldn't help but laugh out loud, reaching out and gently pinching Mia's chin.

"Slytherin's goal is much higher. He wants to transform wizards into powerful magical animals by improving Animagus."

"Did he succeed?"

"Unfortunately," Sebastian's voice was a little sad, "Slytherin failed."

"However, I decided to continue my research based on his notes. After all, transforming into a magical creature is too tempting."

Hearing this, Mia asked worriedly, "Will it work? If the Animagus fails, it can easily turn into a monster."

"There are many patients at St. Mungo's who are hospitalized due to failed Animagus transformations. Those people just want to turn into ordinary animals."

"You want to become a magical creature, isn't the risk higher?"

Hearing this, Sebastian held Mia's hand and comforted her softly.

"Don't worry, I won't joke about my life. If I'm not 100% sure, I won't act rashly."

"Just wait and see!"

"No more talking, just keep pressing me."

With that, Sebastian closed his eyes again, immersing himself in Mia's gentle massage.
