Harry Potter and the Old Ones

Chapter 7: Parseltongue

Two days later, Tiera received a reply. This time, it was an owl with bright gray fur. It flew in and dropped the letter before flying away.

"Dear Mr. Wu,

We are very pleased to receive your reply, and we sincerely welcome you to join us. I believe you will spend an unforgettable and happy seven years at Hogwarts.

We have already made arrangements for the situation you are talking about. Our lovely gamekeeper, Rubis Hagrid, will arrive at your old town loft on the evening of July 31st or in the early hours of August 1st to take you to the wonderful In the wizarding world, there may be a young wizard of the same age as you.

Sincerely, Deputy Principal Minerva McGonagall

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

PS: Mr. Hagrid is a tall but kind-hearted, furry gentleman, please don't be afraid, I wish you a good time together. "

Hagrid? Shouldn't the little wizard with him be Harry Potter?

Well, it should be. On July 31, 1991, Harry Potter's eleventh birthday, Hagrid would bring a cake to Harry. By the way, he would punish the cousin of the Dursleys who had been bullying Harry.

Then Hagrid will take Harry to the Leaky Cauldron in London, enter Diagon Alley through the back wall of the bar to buy magic supplies, and take away the Sorcerer's Stone stored in Gringotts by the way.

Sorcerer's Stone... Tiera remembered the half-finished Sorcerer's Stone that Merlin had left in the library, and wondered if there would be any difference between the two.

"But there are still two months...you have to prepare well...Although the first four grades are not dangerous, but nothing is absolute, the most dangerous is the second grade, um... Basilisk, mirror, rooster, realgar, if you can If you can buy incendiary bombs, sulphur bombs and smoke bombs are even better." Tiera thought silently, Voldemort in the first year is fine, as long as he doesn't wander around with the protagonist group, there is basically no danger, but the basilisk is not necessarily Yes, it is an indiscriminate slaughter of Muggle species. Although none of them died in the original plot, it does not mean that he is as lucky as those few.

"Thank you Merlin." Tiera said sincerely.

Tiera returned to the library the day she received her Hogwarts acceptance letter and copied down the Hypor clay tablets Merlin had collected.

Because it is written on clay tablets, there is not much content on it, only the learning method of Parseltongue and the cultivation techniques of basilisks, as well as some imperfect magic and curses created in the process of Hypor's experiments.

There is also half of the clay tablet because it was broken and severely worn, and Tiera couldn't recognize the information on it. Even Merlin's notes didn't have any records of this part, only that it was some kind of large-scale magical ceremony.

In addition to certain magical skills and language talent, the learning of Parseltongue also requires the cooperation of potions.

Not to mention magical skills and language talent, after being blessed with knowledge of the great race of Yith. Only the words he has come into contact with he can read the language synchronously.

The pronunciation of Parseltongue itself is based on a variant of ancient Greek. Tiera has learned ancient Greek after touching the Hypor slate. Although it is not yet proficient, it is used for me to learn Parseltongue. Still enough.

The rest is a potion called Hydra Poison.

Hydra Poison, as the name suggests, is poison, but it is not fatal. It is a by-product of Hydra's research on the blood magic spell. It will only turn the user into a human-shaped beast within 24 hours. Taking the snake gallbladder together, this poison will only make the user dumb for a few months. After a few months, with proper study and practice, he can initially master Parseltongue.

Most of the herbal raw materials in Hydra Poison are found in Merlin's garden. This is what he has confirmed by climbing out of the pyramid in the past two days. Even if the desert thorn flowers, fairy wings, grimace swan chrysalis, the skin of the African tree snake and the key parts are missing, the silver shell of the feathered snake should be available in ordinary potions.

The set of hardcover printed magic textbooks that Merlin had collected had already been turned over by Tiera, and after reading the Hypor Slate, she had already read through the books in Living Hell Decoction, Compound Decoction, A I saw these kinds of ingredients in the well-known potion formulas such as Nimagus potion, and they are not particularly precious things.

The only problem is the snake gall of the scorpion snake. In the 1645 edition of the Mysterious Creatures Manual, this snake has been hunted and killed to the point of being endangered because of its remarkable and powerful detoxification effect.

It's best to learn Parseltongue, but if you can't...

If you can't learn it, Tiera has to think about the items he listed before.

Among them, the realgar mirror rooster needless to say.

The smoke bomb can block the sight of the basilisk, and take the opportunity to escape at the same time. According to the setting in the movie, the basilisk's sense of smell does not seem to be very good. As long as the sight is blocked, the probability of his escape is still greatly increased.

Incendiary bombs can instantly generate high temperatures. According to the description of the Hypor Slate, the Basilisk is also afraid of flames in its infancy, in addition to being afraid of attacking calls. It was no longer sensitive, and Tiera guessed that this might be because with the thickening of the basilisk's scales, the temperature of ordinary flames could hardly affect his nervous system through the thick leather armor.

But the incendiary bombs are different. The aluminothermic agent can reach a high temperature of 3,000 degrees in an instant, which is enough to burn steel. Not to mention the flesh-and-blood basilisk, even if it is not fatal because of the characteristics of magical creatures, it can also cause damage to the basilisk. There must be obstacles, which can give him time to escape.

It is not difficult to configure the incendiary bomb, and even Tiera has tried it a few times. Of course, it is not used to smash people, but has used matches to ignite aluminum powder and iron dioxide in the laboratory, in response to the school policy, Popularize chemistry experiments to high school and junior high school students around the university.

Iron dioxide, aluminum powder, and magnesium rods for ignition are put into glass bottles, but it is difficult to control the detonation time for magnesium rods to ignite.

Therefore, it is necessary to use a basic sulfur bomb mixed with sulfur, saltpeter and carbon powder, and a wet towel soaked with accelerant as a lead.

Tie a piece, and once you encounter a basilisk, ignite it and throw it together, generating heat that can melt metal.

Although Tiera can be regarded as a wizard now, including the magic of cursing worms, compared to her peers, Tiera has a lot of self-preservation.

But Tiera was a science student in his previous life, and he was accustomed to using technological thinking to solve problems when he encountered problems.

Or in other words, when facing unknown dangers, Tiera will feel safe only when she holds the power of technology in her hands.

This is a concept that has been accumulated for decades in the past life, and it cannot be reversed by mastering a few magics in a short period of time.
