It took Noah a while to comfort Keya.
The basilisk listened to everything. Although he couldn't understand Noah's words, he could discern some other emotions from Keya's words.
[My master is of course very nice. ] Keya said suddenly.
Noah glanced at the wall. No matter what the conversation between the two snakes was, it could be related to their respective masters, and they could also glean a glimpse of their love for their masters from this conversation.
For Keya, Noah, as his master, is everything to him. Using Keya's metaphor, he would give up a hundred jackalopes for his master.
It sounds like a very childish example, but for a snake whose only worries in life are what to eat and how long to sleep, being able to give up food and sleep and choose a master is no less than giving up life.
Presumably the same is true for the basilisk, so after sleeping for a thousand years, even if it only smelled a little familiar smell, it chose to wake up from its slumber and obey the orders of others.
Noah wanted to know who awakened the basilisk and who had Voldemort's Horcrux, but the basilisk couldn't tell who the wizard was, so it was impossible to give him this answer. He could only give up. And changed the question.
Something about Salazar.
Noah was still very curious about Salazar. What kind of fierce man could he find so many Philosopher's Stones?
As expected, I listened to the bragging for a full half hour. Later, Keya couldn't help interrupting and sternly stated that his master was the most powerful, so he stopped the bragging. In the end, as expected, it turned into Two snakes making a loud noise.
Noah: "..." In the end, I couldn't find anything useful.
Noah didn't try to get Keya to stop the basilisk from attacking the little wizard, because that would be absolutely useless. For the basilisk, his master was the priority, so even Voldemort's orders, which were slightly related to his master, were enough.
So Noah didn't plan to continue, but Keya was very interested and wanted to communicate with the basilisk again.
The two snakes didn't mention the matter of being face-to-face, and just chatted through the wall all afternoon. During this period, Noah could only practice magic on the side.
It was obviously very happy to see the same kind of Koya. The Basilisk shared a lot of interesting information with it. In the evening, it also shared it with Noah with great interest, including but not limited to how to trap prey and how to play games without risking oneself. Things like tying knots, what kind of molting position and what kind of sleeping position are more comfortable, etc. In addition, Keya is also envied by the basilisk because he has eaten chicken and has an incubator.
These words made Noah have to consider whether Keya's life was too monotonous. After all, Keya usually followed him around and there seemed to be no other entertainment activities except occasional hunting.
Maybe he could lure the basilisk into his castle?
Thinking like this, Noah began to think about the possibility of adding a friend to Keya, so that he would have to be faster than Voldemort.
…
But Keya didn't find his big basilisk partner for several days, and Noah also searched around the castle, but found no trace of the basilisk.
I don't know if it left the castle or returned to the secret room for a while.
Noah guessed it was the latter. The basilisk had just woken up and probably hadn't fully recovered yet. It had been in deep sleep for thousands of years, so its body functions would need to recover slowly.
Perhaps what is needed more is eating.
But the basilisk didn't need Noah to feed it, so Noah and Keya could only wait patiently for the basilisk to appear again.
This wait lasted more than a month.
On this day, Noah once again received a letter from home.
The letter mentioned Christina's current situation. The baby is almost six months old. Christina's condition is very good, but the baby is a bit noisy, but it is much more lively than Noah.
A photo was also attached. In the photo, Christina, who is sitting on a recliner with a big belly, raised her hand to greet Noah. It can be seen that she is really in good spirits.
The child is very healthy and will probably be a good child.
Other than that, it’s about cards. Noah’s cards are selling very well and are now sold abroad.
outside.
Cooper said in the letter that a reporter from the Daily Prophet might come to Noah in the near future. If he didn’t want to cause trouble, he could refuse. He also explained to Noah how difficult the reporter from the Daily Prophet is - no matter what he says, May be twisted to mean something else.
Although it seems to be an exaggerated description, it is actually not at all. After all, there are more than one outrageous reports in the Daily Prophet.
But Hogwarts is a good school. As long as Noah refuses and asks for help, the school will help him block those annoying reporters. So Noah doesn't need to worry about this. No, maybe he has to worry about it. It wouldn't be good if those reporters got in.
Noah wrote back, describing recent events at school.
The first is... the best-selling card game in school.
Recently, the little wizards in the school are a little obsessed with dueling. This is reflected in the fact that some guys have given up on using magic duels directly, and instead choose to use dueling cards.
Originally, this had nothing to do with Noah. After all, this situation was not unexpected.
And as duels became more popular in schools, the little wizards were no longer limited to grudge matches, but started spontaneous ranking matches. After all, some little wizards may not be very good at using magic, but the duel is fair. A squib can use cards to play some powerful magic that you can't use.
Although it is just a game, it is enough for young wizards to become addicted and pursue it as a means of daily competition.
But there's one problem, and that's the rumors surrounding Noah himself.
As the inventor and publisher of games, Noah naturally faces challenges.
But Noah's calculation power is not comparable to that of ordinary little wizards. After his excellent memory and calculation power defeated all challengers one by one, various rumors appeared inexplicably in the school.
Some versions say that Noah has an out-of-print card in his hand, and whoever can get it can be invincible; some versions say that Noah is similar to the "level devil", and as long as he defeats him, he can be crowned the strongest player in the game. Card Duel Wizard; other versions say that whoever can defeat Noah will get a customized card, etc. There are various rumors, but without exception, Noah will get rewards when he is defeated." boss" character.
Fortunately, in view of the fact that there were too many young wizards who lost before, and the losses were too miserable, the young wizards all made a tacit understanding not to challenge Noah again, but planned to rank one, two, and three first and then challenge Noah.
To this Noah: "..."
He tried to clear up the rumors but no one believed him. What could he do? I can only sit back and wait for others to challenge me.
But...want to beat him? It’s impossible in the next life!
