The basilisk woke up from its dream again. What woke it up was a muffled sound coming from above its head. The nest where it sleeps is very large and empty, so the sound coming from above seems particularly empty, and occasionally there is an echoing sound.
Which big fish is making bubbles again? Those stupid fish can only blow bubbles and chase their prey, and they won't change in a thousand years.
As it thought, its huge, hovering body moved, clamped its head between the body and the body, and balled itself up into a ball.
It's really noisy and stupid.
I don’t know if I can continue the interrupted dream if I fall asleep again.
Or maybe it's not a dream.
The "dream" one is still very small. It can only be wrapped around the owner's wrist three and a half times, so it can only be forced to accompany the owner to warm the fireplace. It doesn't like fire, nor the scorching heat.
"Do basilisks also dream?"
[Yes, I dreamed about eating owl eggs yesterday. 】
"That's not a dream," its owner laughed, hissing with pleasure, "that's a memory."
【But I fell asleep. 】
"Then what's the difference between what happened in your dream and what happened yesterday?"
【What's the difference? 】
It asked ignorantly, earning a sullen smile from its owner: "Well, let me help you find some more owl eggs today. Helga has raised another batch of owls, and maybe there will be some new eggs."
【good! 】
…
But aren’t the memories that come to mind when you’re asleep “dreams”?
To this day, the basilisk still doesn't quite understand the difference between dreams and memories, but it doesn't matter. Even memories are enough. It doesn't need to dream, it just needs to remember those memories.
It's really strange, why doesn't that snake-tongued person appear again? Just like many years ago, I had obviously woken it up, let it kill a person and then let it continue to sleep. This time, I only found it once and there was no follow-up. It couldn't be dead. Human wizards are always fragile and may disappear in some strange place. And that person didn't come to feed him, so was he a qualified snake talker?
The basilisk changed its posture again and flicked its tail in boredom.
It was no longer sleepy now and wanted to eat very much, but there were chickens in the Forbidden Forest, so it couldn't get through, so it could only catch a few fish to satisfy its appetite. But as expected, it still wanted to eat something else and missed the taste of jackalope.
In the past, its owner also liked to catch jackalopes every winter. It is said that it was because he had never seen jackalopes when he was a child, and it was not until later that he fell in love with the smell of jackalopes. However, the taste of jackalope is really delicious, the meat is tender and warm, and the important thing is that the quantity is relatively large, and it is very satisfying to eat.
Most importantly, it had not eaten jackalope in a long time. I can only eat those stupid fish or big octopus every day, which are not delicious at all.
How about taking a secret trip to the Forbidden Forest now? What if those chickens leave?
The basilisk was ready to move. It flicked its tail, straightened up and looked toward the direction above its head. Why don't you go take a look... maybe you can find other prey to hunt for the tooth festival.
Just as he was thinking about it, the Basilisk suddenly smelled something.
It turned its head and stared at a passage with its yellow eyes. After a while, it swam over with its tail swung.
A familiar hissing sound came from the pipe, it was the little guy it had encountered before. The little guy seemed to have found its nest and was coming down the passage.
The basilisk stopped at the entrance of the cave and hissed in response to the little guy's cry.
It waited patiently for a few seconds, and finally saw a human figure and the white snake clinging to the human figure's shoulders.
Noticing the black strip of cloth on the little guy's head, the basilisk was not surprised. Even its owner would not look directly into its eyes.
The two snakes greeted each other in a friendly manner. Keya acted as if he was visiting a friend. The basilisk didn't feel anything was wrong. Rather, it is very happy.
【Eat jackalope? ] asked the basilisk.
This was to Koya's taste. The greedy snake immediately nodded like garlic: [Eat, eat, eat! 】
I didn't understand what the basilisk said.
Noah: "...?" What to eat?
Half an hour later, Noah stood beside the chicken pen and fell into silence.
The development of things seems to be different from what he thought?
Logically speaking, he shouldn't have communicated with the basilisk first, and then offered his own bargaining chips to negotiate with the basilisk. If he won, he would take the basilisk away. If he lost, he would either kidnap or kill him. Instead... instead of... Cast a sleep spell on these chickens here.
But who would have thought that the basilisk also likes to eat jackalopes... So does jackalopes have any special attraction to snakes?
Gloomy light fell like fine snow, and the sleeping chickens in the chicken coop fell into a deeper sleep, and would not be awakened again until the magic was released.
Keya smelled the smell here and was ready to go inside to catch a tooth-dagger.
Noah glanced at the pumpkin house in the distance, but he didn't refuse and let Keya crawl in.
Within a minute, Keya dragged a smaller chicken out with difficulty. At the same time, there was a huge rustling sound behind Noah. A giant snake with a length of fifteen meters and a thickness of more than one meter crawled out from the shadows. Coming out, two golden eyes like lightbulbs stared quietly in the direction of the chicken coop. It is difficult to tell whether this basilisk is thinking about killing these chickens directly. In the end, what it is afraid of is the crowing of roosters.
At this time, Keya dragging a chicken out was like a model, so after a brief hesitation, the basilisk directly ran over the fence with its huge body, flattened the chicken coop with its tail, and killed the people inside. All chicken.
Fortunately, Noah reacted in time and set up the magic to eliminate the sound, so that no one could notice the movement here.
Keya "looked" at the chicken coop that had been brutally murdered with some pity. He hadn't tasted the taste of these chickens yet, but Hagrid had always been good at raising small animals, so he thought they tasted good. Forget it, it would be nice to steal one.
Keya, who was always very satisfied, dragged the sleeping prey to Noah and asked Noah to put it away to eat later.
After the basilisk was satisfied, one person and two snakes entered the Forbidden Forest and began to cause harm to the animals tonight.
At the same time, a large fiery red bird was perched on the tower of the castle, looking towards the direction of the Forbidden Forest.
After a while, it opened its beak, let out a long cry like beautiful music, and then opened its wings.
The window of the spire at its feet was opened. Dumbledore, who was wearing blue-striped pajamas and a pointed nightcap, pushed open the window. He put on his eyes and looked up at the Phoenix who rarely ran out to stay on the spire, wondering. He frowned and saw the phoenix suddenly spread its wings and flew toward the forbidden forest with a cry.
Dumbledore's frown deepened. He took out his wand, and with just a wave of his hand, his clothes were changed. Then he swept out of the castle like smoke and flew out in the direction of the phoenix.
