Chapter 96 The Second Attack

As soon as the three of them walked out of the principal's office, Flivi shouted away the girl with a pockmarked face.

The girl didn't say anything, she jumped away and walked away. Seeing the gossip in her eyes, Mike felt that what happened in the principal's office today would soon spread throughout Hogwarts.

Seeing the girl gradually walking away, Professor Flitwick said to comfort her: "Don't worry, Mike, it's okay. I believe you."

Mike was still in the state of absolute sanity caused by the closed brain. Facing Professor Flitwick's comfort, his heart did not fluctuate. He squeezed out a fake smile and nodded slightly to Professor Flitwick to express his gratitude.

"This is for you. I know you have a good relationship with Penello. I hope you won't be too sad." Flitwick handed Mike a note. "This is the approval note I wrote. Take this and go quickly." Look at Penelo. Don't worry about class. It doesn't matter if you miss a few classes based on your grades. I will go say hello to the other professors."

Mike took the note in a daze, almost unable to maintain the Occlumency technique. From Professor Flitwick's words, Mike felt Professor Flitwick's sincere feelings for him.

After voluntarily exiting the closed-brain state and putting away the fake smile on his face, Mike bowed deeply towards Flitwick.

Mike felt it was an insult to continue to fake a smile in front of such a teacher.

"Thank you, Dean!"

Upon hearing this, Professor Flitwick showed a look of relief on his face, patted Mike on the shoulder and said: "Go quickly, kid. This is what I should do. As your dean, I failed to protect you. I should apologize to you.”

Mike did not continue to be pretentious, and rushed to the infirmary after saying goodbye to Professor Flitwick.

When Mike arrived at the infirmary, a group of people had gathered at the door of the infirmary, all of whom came to visit Penello. But Mike knew that these people were here to watch the fun, so he didn't give them a good look. He squeezed through the crowd all the way. After knocking down several people, Mike finally came to the infirmary.

Mrs. Ponfleur blocked Mike like a doorkeeper and said impatiently: "The infirmary is under martial law and no one is allowed to visit Miss Penello."

After Mike handed over the approval slip given to him by Professor Flitwick, he walked into Penello's ward with everyone's envious eyes.

Penelo, who was lying on the bed, still looked the same as when he was petrified, with the smile still on his face.

Looking at that bright smile, Mike gradually became crazy. Mike was not a little kid who didn't understand anything. Of course he knew Penelo's feelings for him, but because this body was too small, he didn't respond to Penelo.

He didn’t know how long he had been looking at it, but Mike suddenly noticed that Penello’s bangs were a little messy, and instinctively reached out his hand to smooth it out for her.

But when his hand touched Penello's forehead, he froze. The hardness and coldness from his fingertips reminded Mike that the girl in front of him had been petrified.

The cold reality once again made Mike understand the cruelty of the world.

Mike suppressed the anger welling up in his heart and entered a state of absolute rationality and walked out of the infirmary. He was now going to investigate the scene of the incident to see if there were any clues. Anger would only affect his judgment.

When Mike walked out of the infirmary, he realized that it was already dark outside and he had been in the infirmary all day.

Without too much entanglement, Mike quickly walked towards the Ravenclaw Tower. It was quiet at night, and now was the best time to go to the scene to investigate.

"Swiss, swiss, swish..."

Before Mike had gone far, he heard a rustling sound like a snake crawling. The sound was very weak, but it seemed particularly loud in the silent corridor late at night.

Alarm bells rang in Mike's heart. He flipped his wrist and the blackthorn wand appeared in his hand. With a flick of his hand, a transparent protective shield wrapped around Mike's body. At the same time, Mike quickly closed his eyes, and the sense of magic surged around like a tide.

"Swiss, swiss, swish..."

The weird rustling sounds were getting closer and closer, and Mike knew that the basilisk must be near him. However, Mike did not notice anything unusual in his magic perception vision.

In the corridor late at night, you know that a dangerous python is slowly approaching with a scarlet snake message, ready to deliver a fatal blow to you at any time...

Anyone else would have been sweating nervously at this time. Fortunately, Mike entered a closed-brain state early. With the buff of absolute sanity, Mike very calmly monitored the magic perception field of view, and even his heartbeat did not change at all. .

Suddenly, something abnormal appeared in Mike's magic perception field of vision.

At the corner not far away, a pair of armor placed there suddenly moved.

"The flames are blazing!"

Mike didn't care and just blasted it with a fireball.

In the magic vision, a fireball shining with dazzling magic light was launched from the tip of the battle. However, the fireball seemed to have encountered some transparent obstacle during its flight and suddenly exploded into sparks all over the sky.

Mike secretly groaned inwardly. The basilisk's skin actually had the ability to block the perception of magic power. The basilisk just now must have closed its eyes and relied on the pheromones collected by the snake letter to determine the direction.

He jerked back and waved the wand in his hand violently, causing fireballs the size of tennis balls to fly in the direction of the previous big fireball.

Mike was ready to run away.

Before the second grade even started, Mike was already thinking about ways to deal with the basilisk. The most difficult thing about the basilisk is that anyone who looks at it will die instantly, and Mike's strategy to deal with this is to close his eyes and use magic perception.

However, the plan failed to keep up with the change. Mike never expected that the basilisk's skin had the ability to block the perception of magic. Moreover, this basilisk's intelligence is also frighteningly high, and it can even cleverly use this to sneak around.

Now that the plan failed from the first step, Mike was left with the only way to escape.

"Boom boom boom..."

Listening to the roar behind him, Mike ran towards the infirmary without looking back, and even cast a wind speed spell on himself along the way.

Due to the martial law in the infirmary, the school specially arranged several senior students to guard there day and night. As long as he arrived at the infirmary, Mike could get several free thugs.

The fire spell didn't seem to have much effect on the basilisk. It didn't even scream under the attack of so many fireballs.

The basilisk seemed to know that Mike had discovered it, so it simply stopped sneaking and pounced on Mike.

Mike, who was escaping, suddenly felt his heart tightening. He swerved to the side and missed the basilisk's bloody mouth...
