A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 83: Professor Snake

In the first class of the new semester, Felix felt the inner restlessness of the little wizards. They were all waiting to go to the courtyard to see the basilisk after class.

He cleared his throat, and after attracting the attention of the little wizards, he waved his wand lightly, "Oolong out of the hole." Accompanied by a cloud of black air, a small snake surrounded by black spots landed on the ground. on the desk.

It made a "hissing" sound, and its slender body kept twisting.

The little wizards raised their heads one after another, stretching their necks to see clearly.

Felix's wand slid across its scales, and the appearance of this little black-spotted snake changed dramatically—its smooth scales became thick and solid, giving it a metallic texture; Its color also became green, with the unique radiance of poisonous snakes.

Even its body swelled a lot. It lifted its flat snake head, and its pair of yellow eyes looked cold and ferocious.

"Professor, is this... a basilisk?" a student asked.

"Exactly."

"So, Potter and the others defeated this little guy?"

The little wizard in the audience said with some disappointment that it was too small, about three or four feet.

Especially the little basilisk curled up on the podium, it looked even more inconspicuous.

Many little wizards suddenly had an illusion in their minds: I can do it if I do it.

However, the appearance of the basilisk is very bluffing, especially the pair of yellow eyes, which are really penetrating.

Felix was noncommittal about their attitude, and continued to explain: "The biggest threat to the basilisk lies in the eyes. They are extremely lethal. In other words, when you see it, you may have lost your fight forever." power."

The discussion in the audience was much quieter.

"And—"

He waved his wand, and the little basilisk crouched on the podium suddenly sprang up from the table, scaring the little wizards in the front row to fall back.

But when it drew an arc in the air and landed in the middle of the classroom, the body of the little basilisk suddenly expanded rapidly.

It magnified more than ten times in an instant, and before they could react, it filled most of the classroom space.

"Ahhh!" Many little wizards screamed and hurriedly avoided the huge basilisk that was crushed down, but soon they discovered that the body of the basilisk had changed from solid to black mist.

A young wizard sitting on the ground mustered up the courage to reach out to touch it, and his hand went straight through the black mist. He raised his head and saw that many people's half bodies were stuck into the black mist, and they were moving out in fear at the moment.

Felix said mischievously: "Well, this is the original size of the basilisk."

After a while, the little wizards calmed down after realizing that this thing didn't do them any harm.

A few students got up from the ground embarrassingly, and one of them, a little witch named Campbell King, stirred the black mist basilisk with a magic wand, stirring the scales around her into a black ball again. fog.

Many young wizards imitated curiously, and in the process, the black mist-like basilisk kept wandering around in the small classroom, twisting its body, and the huge snake body passed through the tables, chairs, books, men and women .

But at this moment, most of the little wizards were not afraid anymore, they poked it with their wands enthusiastically, sparks of various colors flickered from time to time in the shadowy black mist.

After a few minutes, the basilisk shrank back to three or four feet, and its body also changed from a black mist back to a green solid.

"Professor, is this what the basilisk really looks like in the Chamber of Secrets?" A little wizard asked in an awe-inspiring tone.

"You can understand it this way." Felix conjured up a chair and sat on it by himself, "Since you are curious about the basilisk, let it give you a lecture today."

The little wizards looked at each other in confusion, but at this moment, a voice similar to that of Professor Haipu came out from the mouth of the basilisk.

"Now open the book to page 79, and we will study an excerpt from a manuscript translated by ancient rune expert Carlisle Matthew in 1842, which came about seven hundred years ago."

Many little wizards were taken aback, but with their previous experience, they were not ashamed to fall off their seats again. Instead, they stared at the front of the podium with their upper body raised On the little basilisk that grew up.

They blinked suspiciously, then looked at Professor Haipu who was sitting peacefully in the corner of the podium, with countless complex thoughts surging in their hearts.

And the little basilisk opened its mouth, revealing thin, dagger-like teeth, "Yes, it is me, your ancient rune professor. So, what are you waiting for?" The basilisk suddenly When she got close to the little wizard in the front row, she was so frightened that she dropped her quill.

"Campbell, tell me, what did I just say?"

"Teacher, professor, you just talked about the rune Eoh, which means the yew tree, which symbolizes death and rebirth, and can also mean continuity and maintenance." The little witch named Campbell King stood up and stammered. .

"That's right, Ravenclaw adds ten points." The basilisk said with a message.

Campbell sat down with a sigh of relief and patted his chest.

"So, why don't you write it down?"

The rest of the young wizards began to write furiously.

In the rest of the course, the little wizards gradually accepted this somewhat weird "Professor Snake~IndoMTL.com~ This professor of snake kept wandering in the aisles on both sides, and from time to time, he approached the little wizards who were not serious. In front of him, staring at a pair of yellow eyes, he said loudly, "Don't look at me~IndoMTL.com~ And Professor Haipu, who was sitting in the corner, had a smile on his face from the beginning to the end, and he was in a very happy mood.

As the get out of class was approaching, Felix stood up. He waved his wand, and amidst the reluctance of the little wizards, turned their Professor Snake into a black mist again.

"Today's homework is to retell the content of this manuscript. The requirement is a piece of parchment, and the knowledge learned in the third and fourth grades must be used."

As soon as the get out of class bell rang, there were "cracking" footsteps and noises in the corridor-these little wizards couldn't wait to rush out and went straight to the courtyard. And in the fifth-grade ancient rune classroom, the little wizards packed their things in a daze, and walked out of the classroom slowly.

"Hey! Campbell, let's go and see the basilisk together!" Her friend stopped her and said cheerfully, "I've been looking forward to this since last Transfiguration class."

Campbell said indifferently: "You go first."

"What about you?"

"I suddenly lost interest in basilisks," Campbell said.

The little wizard who walked out of the ancient rune classroom with her nodded in sympathy. Not only did they have a lesson with the basilisk, they were also taught to learn ancient rune by it.

……

In the courtyard, many young wizards have already surrounded themselves, they are crowded together, shadowy.

In the middle of the little wizard, there is a huge basilisk that is forty feet long. Its body is as thick as the trunk of an oak tree, and each scale is as big as a palm. It looks very rough and glowing. Cold green light.
