Luke's pause was noticed by the two girls around him.
On the other side, Harry also stopped and looked around strangely.
Ron next to him looked at his expression and asked with some confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Did you hear anything?"
Harry asked with some confusion.
Ron looked around, then scratched the back of his head and said, "No, I didn't hear anything. Did you hear it wrong?"
Harry was also a little hesitant, after all, the sound was just the sound of the lake.
"It's possible. I must have heard wrong."
His tone changed from hesitant to sure.
Then the two men left.
Luke didn't pay attention. He looked at the ceiling and said to the two girls beside him: "Be careful when you go out these two days... There may be problems here recently."
In the plot, the cat was chosen first, and then Colin...and now, with Luke's change, Luke himself is not sure which side will cause the problem. He does not rule out that Hermione or others will be targeted. possible.
If you see it through the water, a mirror or something like that, it's okay, but it will petrify, but if you look directly at it, it's not a petrification problem.
Myrtle is an example...it will kill people directly.
Looking at Luke's serious expression, Hermione and Taylor nodded in agreement.
"What happened?"
"It's nothing serious...a rather dangerous magical animal has appeared in the school."
Luke didn't hide anything and said to the two of them: "It's a basilisk. I originally thought someone would be able to open the secret room uncontrollably, and then the basilisk would be awakened. Now it seems that's not the case. I'm not sure about the secret room. There is no entrance or exit for the basilisk, so be careful."
Speaking of this, Luke suddenly thought of Ron imitating Harry's snark in the original novel.
He had an idea, could he teach Hermione and Tyler a few simple clichés? This might make them safer.
But just thinking about it, he quickly realized that if he could only say one or two words, it would be okay to open the door like Ron, but if he really encountered the basilisk, it might not be of much help.
The basilisk's intelligence itself is relatively low, which might actually irritate the basilisk.
More importantly... there is nothing to say to waste time. When a basilisk meets a human, it will either die or become petrified. There was no time for communication at all.
"Don't worry too much about this, I'll take care of it."
Luke took this matter upon himself in an all-round way. He was not exaggerating or arrogant. He was quite confident in this matter.
It's not like Tom can come in and out of the secret room at will, but his true descendant has to face danger.
There is no such truth.
And he was curious about what the basilisk said. If the basilisk simply came out to look for food, he wouldn't have much of a reaction. But when the basilisk passed by his position, it obviously stopped for a moment and said the following sentence. This made Luke think about it carefully.
"Another...prophecy."….
Ever since Luke began to contact the outside world, his relationship with the word prophecy has never been broken. Taylor came to him from the beginning and said it was the guidance of the prophecy. Later, the saints wanted to kill him, which was also said to be the guidance of prophecy.
Now the basilisk also says that he is the son of prophecy and asks him to go to the secret room.
What you say is at best a prophecy. Otherwise, such a prediction would be too confusing.
There is only one prophecy about Voldemort. If I have three of them, that would be an exaggeration...
Although Luke said he was relaxed, Hermione and Taylor on the side did not look relaxed.
Both are top academics and both have a certain understanding of basilisks.
Even among the most dangerous magical animals, the basilisk is among the most dangerous.
One of those kinds. Comparable to it, only magical animals such as the Hungarian Horntail and the Voldemort Bat among the fire dragons can confront each other head-on. The other magical animals are much the same.
And now, there is a basilisk operating in Hogwarts, a place where most of the wizards are young.
"I remember, when I first entered school, a senior told me... Hogwarts is the safest place in the UK."
Hermione looked helpless, but now it seemed that this was not the case at all.
Luke shrugged: "That's what people say, just listen to it. Don't take it seriously. There are many things in Hogwarts that I don't understand. Dumbledore's control over various facilities in the school is not absolute. This There are still many mysteries about this school that have not been revealed.”
"A place where there are many unknowns cannot be rashly defined as 'safe'."
Luke never thought Hogwarts was safe, and not entirely because Voldemort would cause trouble here. It's that the school itself is unsafe. The small door deep in the Room of Requirement. Peeves led himself to the secret room in the deserted corridor. The secret room left by Slytherin. There is also the giant squid deep in the Black Lake, which Dumbledore saw when he was young, and Nico Flamel said he had heard of it.
This school has never been a proven place. Its mysterious veil has only been unveiled so far.
"The basilisk... is really dangerous. Don't we need to organize it?"
Taylor said with some worry.
The threat of the basilisk to the students is too great. The ability to stare someone to death is too incomprehensible.
"I will try my best to stop it. But there is no need to make it so loud.
In the original work, although every student increased their vigilance, some even went home to rest. But this incident still did not cause too many casualties. In other words, there are no dead people at all.
Taylor knew that Luke never liked to talk too much. If he could prevent something 100%, he would also say that his probability of success was 98%.
If there was only a 90 percent chance of success, then he would say an 80 percent certainty or even less.
Now he says he will try his best and there is no need to make it so loud, which means he already has some ideas.
Then Taylor doesn't have to worry about it himself. Just trust Luke.
So Taylor and Hermione discussed their plans and walked away. After all, their tasks are not simple either. Lockhart does seem to be a bit unintelligent. But when it comes to whether he can continue to be famous. He is absolutely very attentive. ….
After all, fame and fortune are also poisons, poisons that can make people addicted and change people. Taylor would not be surprised no matter what Lockhart did in order to protect his own fame and fortune.
What the two of them want to destroy is undoubtedly Lockhart's foundation. This kind of thing would not surprise her even if Lockhart cruelly killed them.
Of course, judging from the current situation, she really felt that Lockhart might not be able to beat her in a normal battle.
Of course, let alone Luke.
Luke was hanging far behind. As Doris grew up, it became less and less suitable to be taken around casually. Fortunately, Doris's personality is not particularly restless. Compared with Booker, who has no time to spare and disappears when he comes to school, Doris prefers to stay in the dormitory and bask in the sun that passes through the black lake during the day. At night it was either sleeping next to Luke. Or following Luke on a night out.
It's okay now. If Doris grows again, gets bigger, or simply changes shape, then the problem will be serious. It was unclear whether she could stay in school or not.
"Luke, are you looking for me?"
An ethereal voice sounded from behind Luke.
Luke turned around and saw Luna and Booker in her arms.
Booker glanced at Luke disdainfully, then nuzzled into Luna's arms.
Luke couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the petty cat. Instead, he said seriously to Luna: "I have something to ask you for help."
He found someone to help contact Luna in the morning.
Luna's whereabouts are irregular, and whether or not she eats in the morning depends purely on her mood. Luke didn't find Luna in the morning, and he didn't see her again at noon, so he had to find someone to help take the message.
Fortunately, it seems that the person who brought the message did come.
"you say."
Luna's expression was quite indifferent, as if she didn't care what troublesome work Luke would arrange.
"Keep an eye on Ginny for me. There is something dirty around her that might hurt her."
Luke's words were not too direct. Although Luna has always behaved very uniquely. But Luke also knows that after all, Luna is still an eleven-year-old child. He's just a little bit special, but he's still a little wizard after all.
The reactions of the young wizards when faced with matters related to Voldemort... are visible to all.
Of course, the little wizards who had never faced the brutal Death Eaters and Voldemort performed reasonably well. Some wizards who have actually experienced it are not even willing to mention what happened back then.
The reason why Voldemort's name cannot be called out is not just because Voldemort's name is magical.
Luna was a little confused: "Don't you need to tell Ginny?"
"I have another plan." Luke shook his head and told Luna. After that, he looked at Luna seriously, "Do you want to help me?"
Luna did not hesitate: "Of course, I don't think this is a bad thing. If something happens, you won't see Ginny get hurt. I am the guarantee, right?"
Luna's trust and speculation came from no logic. However, this situation is in line with Luke's understanding of Luna.
"Yes, you are my protection." Luke smiled and said, "Keep an eye on Ginny. If anything goes wrong, let Booker come to me."…
"Meow!"
Booker yelled reluctantly at Luke, but both Luke and Luna understood what it meant.
"As long as you can help. If you want to eat dried fish, just ask for it yourself."
Luke wasn't polite to Booker either. Last year he was really thinking about preparing some dried fish or something like that. This year I simply don’t prepare anything. Anyway, the little guy can get food by himself. The high-end dried fish he prepared last year was barely touched. The rest were basically thrown away.
So he simply stopped buying it this year. The little guy even had trouble with him for a while.
After briefly explaining the matter to Luna, Luke watched Luna jump away.
Luna has never been calm in her work, and her personality is both ethereal and quiet, as well as quirky. What matters most is doing things as one pleases. Luke didn't think he could make Luna obey her orders. The most he could do was guide Luna to do something.
But Luna does deserve Luke's trust. The two of them have an inexplicable trust in each other. This is different from the trust that Taylor gained from his prophecy and finally exchanged his heart for his heart.
Luke trusts Luna, but he is guilty of trusting himself.
After sending Luna away, Luna took a deep breath. Glancing at the ceiling, he knew that the various pipes of Hogwarts were intertwined and distributed above their heads and feet. And these pipes don't require wizards to maintain them. They are the responsibility of Hogwarts Castle itself. This thing is outrageous enough to say. But that's exactly what happened.
This also means that no one knows what is in those pipes.
As far as Luke knew, some small snakes in the Forbidden Forest could enter and exit any room with a faucet in the school through pipes.
Just like Luke's luxurious dormitory with private bathroom.
The main path of activity of the basilisk is also in the pipeline.
"Tsk, it's such a complicated place."
Luke sighed as he slowly walked towards Professor McGonagall's office.
He knocked gently on Professor McGonagall's door.
"Please come in!"
So Luke
Opened the door and walked in.
Professor McGonagall's room was as tidy as ever. But there are obvious changes.
"Professor, did you add two bookcases?"
Luke walked towards the two bookcases over there, looked at the materials organized one by one inside, and said with a smile.
Professor McGonagall raised her head and looked at Luke: "Okay, if you make a mess for me, you have to clean it up for me."
Luke made an 'OK' gesture, then opened a book of materials and started reading.
As expected, they were all experiments related to the formulaic derivation of transfiguration. This diary is from earlier. The above content is obviously still at a confused stage, and no feasible path has been found.
Luke looked at it for a moment and then restored the experiment log to its original position.
It's not that he isn't curious. It's just that it's hard for him to devote his energy to this kind of derivation experiment.
"Did the trajectory we drew at that time help you?"
"Others have it, but you don't. Your trajectory is clear and clear. It can be seen that you have learned well."
Professor McGonagall said to Luke politely. Her purpose itself is to diversify the collection of information. There is no need to absorb things like Luke's that are the same as examples.
"Why did you come to me?"
Professor McGonagall knew that Luke had a character that would do anything. He can give you expensive gifts, but it will be too difficult to get him to take the initiative to play with you when he has nothing to do.
So there must be something wrong with Luke finding him.
"Give me a note, Professor. I have to go to the *** area."
Luke was not polite and directly stated his request.
Professor McGonagall, who had been writing and drawing, listened. She adjusted her glasses.
"reason."
Luke said nothing, but took something out of his belt and placed it on Professor McGonagall's desk. .
I don't update
