The latest chapter in the Harry Potter Bastard novel

Unlike Solim’s composure, Silna was nervous and speechless when she saw the giant snake slipping out of the statue’s mouth. Solim noticed Silna’s nervousness, and he patted his sister’s shoulder, “It’s okay, trust me, you know, you will be my translator later, don’t worry, it… Well, he shouldn’t have attacked us. ”

“Are you sure?” Silna was finally better, but her voice was still shaky.

“Come on, let’s go and see this amazing living fossil.” Solim licked his lips, pulled Silna and walked towards the basilisk. “Look at the ground, don’t look up yet.” Solim reminded that in case the basilisk just came out and didn’t close his eyes, they met the basilisk’s eyes… That would be unjust.

Barrow over there was hissing and talking to the basilisk about something, and Silna whispered to Solim on the side: “Barrow asked him to close his eyes.” And still asking him… Hungry or not… This big guy won’t eat us, will he? ”

“Well, Basque won’t hurt you now, you…” Barrow turned his head and saw the two brothers and sisters looking down and counting ants, “… It’s time to put your head up. ”

Solim glanced at the basilisk out of the corner of his eye, found that the basilisk’s eyes were indeed closed, and then patted Silna and told her that she was fine.

“Barrow’s snake language hasn’t passed level 4 yet, so Silna, you will translate it later.” Solim said casually while looking at the basilisk.

“Well? What the? “Silna understood everything else, but that level 4 didn’t understand anything.” What level 4? ”

“Ah, nothing, let’s ask him first.” Solim pushed Silna forward.

If someone who doesn’t understand the situation sees it, they think that Solim, an evil wizard, is going to feed a cute girl to the basilisk to eat.

“You… Hello…” Silna squeezed her hands and said very nervously, she was too close to the basilisk behemoth, and the smell on the basilisk was indeed not very good.

Solim slapped himself in the face: “My good sister, you speak English, not snake language…”

It’s no wonder that Silna, Solim has seen that this basilisk named Basque is nearly 30 feet long, or even longer, what is this concept? Even if most of the basilisk’s body is in contact with the ground, the part that stands up is 3 to 4 meters high, which is too oppressive for Silna, not to mention Silna, in fact, Solim’s heart is also a little panicked, which has nothing to do with courage, this is an instinctive fear of humans in the face of huge, absolutely lethal creatures.

While Silna and Basque were hissing on the side, Barrow was also talking to Solim. The usually taciturn Slytherin ghost became a little speechless at this time.

“Basque hasn’t been so happy in a long time.” Barrow said, “Every time he wakes up from a deep sleep, I can only have a simple communication with him, and your sister is doing well. ”

As an intelligent creature, the basilisk naturally also has character. Locked up in this dark secret room, all the basilisk can do is sleep, eat when you wake up, and then sleep after eating, and it’s pitiful to think about it.

“Huh? Wait, where did his food come from? Solim thought of a question.

“I regularly call the elves from school to send them over, but usually when Basque is about to wake up, Basque does not come into contact with any living creatures when he wakes up.”

“That’s really pitiful, I can only stay here for such a long time, except for sleeping and eating.” Solim thought about it for a while, and felt that it was incredible that this basilisk was not crazy.

Solim, who had been paying attention to Silna, found that her sister had let go, she was no longer afraid, even… Somewhat…… Excited?

“How? What to talk about? Solim took a few steps and came to Silna’s side and asked.

“Basque said that no one has spoken to him for a long time, except for the guy last time.” Silna looked at her brother, “Who would that be?” Then he looked at Barrow, “Basque certainly wasn’t talking about Barrow.” ”

“Voldemort, he opened the Chamber of Secrets when he was sixteen and caused the death of a student.” Solim explained.

Listening to Solim’s words, Silna hissed and chatted with Basque again, and Barrow floated over at this time and said: “I went to find the elves and asked them to bring some food, Basque has not eaten for a long time.” ”

After that, Barrow floated away through the wall.

“Boom!” A sudden loud noise startled Solim, and he quickly looked over, it turned out that it was Basque’s tail whipping on the ground.

“What’s wrong?”

“He seemed very angry,” Silna said, “just when I was talking to him about the man who opened the chamber. ”

“Okay, you can translate the next words to him.” Solim said.

Under Sirna’s translation, Solim was surprised to find that this basilisk named Basque had a lot of intelligence, and judging from the fluency of Silna’s translation, Basque’s thinking was surprisingly clear, which was extremely rare for a cold-blooded animal.

This is not discrimination or prejudice. There are not many intelligent magical creatures, just like horse people or goblins, they have almost no obstacles to communicating with human wizards, say almost, because no one can understand the horse people those gods and gods, about the stars, cut these out, horses and humans communication is no barrier. But whether horses or goblins, they are all warm-blooded animals.

There are also some cold-blooded animals that are intelligent, such as the mermaids living in the Black Lake of Hogwarts, they have their own language, but the mermaid language is extremely simple, which makes many concepts unclear at all, and there are eight-eyed giant spiders living in the Forbidden Forest, they are the same, rather than being intelligent creatures, Solim thinks it is more accurate to call them intelligent creatures.

But Basque gave Solim a completely different feeling than these cold-blooded animals. If you don’t think about language and appearance, this basilisk that has lived for thousands of years is completely like a person in snake skin, of course, Basque is indeed a little simple, but Solim believes that this is completely caused by the environment, he has stayed here since birth, he has no contact with anyone except Slytherin, and he sleeps most of the time, which gives this thousand-year-old basilisk little chance to gain knowledge in all aspects.

The poor fellow had only come out of the Chamber of Secrets three times, and one of them had been done by Voldemort. Two other times Solim knew, once in the thirteenth century and once in the fifteenth century, that he had seen on a wizard’s codex, but the exact reason was not stated. However, Solim did not care much about these minutiae, and wanted to ask these things, there is time in the future, and the main thing now is how to ensure that Basque is not controlled by Voldemort, or Riddle again.

Heir to Slytherin – it’s more than just a title. When Barrow returned, he explained in detail to Solim what exactly this so-called “Slytherin heir” meant.

Slytherin has two meanings, one referring to Slytherin House at Hogwarts, and the other referring to the founder who founded the house, which is Salazar Slytherin himself. So what exactly does this so-called heir inherit? Is it the academy? Or the will of Slytherin himself? Or what item?

According to Barrow, this heir should inherit the will of Slytherin himself to protect the school, and the basilisk was left by Slytherin to protect the school, but 16-year-old Riddle went against Slytherin’s will, and even went against it.

Since it was to protect the school, then Slytherin must have left something for his heirs, he left not only a basilisk, but also a contract. Before Hogwarts became Hogwarts, the castle belonged to the Slytherin family, and no one knew the castle better than Slytherin himself, and the secrets in the castle, the defenses in the castle, and the spells that activated them, he left them all to his heirs. With this contract, the heir can enter the headmaster’s room without even saying an order, and this heir has absolute control over the Basque, which is why in the original book Riddle does not worry that Harry, who is also a parseltongue, will control the basilisk.

Hearing that Riddle had absolute dominance over the basilisk, Solim’s face was ugly.
