Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 565: Immature thoughts

"What are you looking for?"

"The natural enemy of the eight-eyed spider." Albert looked up at Isobel and asked with a slight frown, "Where are the glasses I gave you?"

"For Katrina," Isobel said honestly.

On the night Filch's Mrs. Norris was petrified, Isobel realized the seriousness of the matter. Although she didn't know why the cat didn't die directly, the basilisk's gaze caused Norris to The lady was petrified.

In the beginning, Albert was apprehensive for a reason.

"Katrina probably won't appreciate it." Albert looked at his girlfriend, sighed deeply, and reminded, "I know you love your sister very much, but that guy is still angry. Honestly. Say, I don't have so much time and energy to waste on her."

"No, I made Katrina forget about it for a while!"

Isobel is well aware that some things have to be decisive enough, and while Katrina may not be very kind to do so, she still slightly falsifies her sister's memory.

"This is probably the best outcome." Albert no longer struggled with the question, "I have a feeling that the Slytherin heir might really be eyeing me.

"Is it because of reputation?" Isobel bit her lip. "Why don't you tell Dumbledore about it?"

"It's useless, the headmaster probably guessed something, but that's all." Albert closed the book and explained, "About fifty years ago, something similar happened at Hogwarts. Because of the death, the professors searched almost the entire castle, but never found the location of the legendary secret room."

"But you didn't say that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk, and you guessed the location of the secret room?" Isobel finished speaking, but soon fell silent again.

Yes, even if it is said that the monster in the secret room is a basilisk, but there is no evidence, who will believe it?

People will only take this as a joke.

Even Dumbledore wouldn't believe it easily.

Basically no one wants to believe in the existence of the Slytherin Chamber, because no one has found the Slytherin Chamber for a thousand years.

"So, you're looking for evidence to try to convince Dumbledore?"

"It's not wrong to say that." Albert tapped "Where are the Fantastic Beasts" on the table with his finger, and said softly, "Where is the secret room, and who is the heir of Slytherin? And what are the monsters in the secret room?"

"Can we predict the result?" Isobel suggested.

Honestly, she really didn't want Albert to take the risk.

"It's difficult, my divination ability is not very strong." Albert looked at the divination crystal ball on the table and said softly, "The next attack will be related to Quidditch, or... Happened on the day of the Ditch game.

"I won't allow you to take risks." Isobel, not forgetting how Albert defeated Rowena Smith, suggested, "If you can predict when the attack will happen, you can Tell Dumbledore to let him solve the basilisk problem."

"The heir to Slytherin monitors the entire castle, otherwise how could the basilisk roam the castle undetected," Albert reminded.

"A Mantra?" Isobel immediately guessed the reason.

"Well, so I need to master the advanced use of Shielding Charm, and the other party can't easily lock me with the Tracing Charm." Albert took out a penny from his pocket, which had a Shielding Charm on it, as long as he put the coin Put it in your pocket, and the spell will take effect, but this alone cannot block the detection of the human footprint.

The shielding effect can only be achieved with magic items made with high-level shielding spells, and that stuff isn't durable enough to turn back into regular coins within a few days.

"You must be preparing other things." Isobel said affirmatively.

"The basilisk's skin is very thick and has strong magic resistance, so ordinary means are ineffective and difficult to kill."

Actually, Albert thinks that the basilisk died in the novel because it was just killed by the plot. Otherwise, how could it be possible to kill a basilisk with Potter's ability, and it would be very difficult to directly ascend to the sky without being watched. Not bad.

Albert doesn't think he can trigger a plot kill like Potter does, so it's always right to be careful, and he doesn't plan to fight the basilisk, even though Albert knows that killing the basilisk may not be enough Small profit, but is it not good to pick up a cheap one?

"I have prepared a lot of magic items for escape, to make sure that if I accidentally encounter a basilisk in the castle, I won't be knocked down. At least I can find a way to escape." Albert did I didn't want to kill the basilisk alone, it is very unrealistic, unless you use the devil flame to directly turn the basilisk into a roasted snake.

Isobel was hesitant to say anything. In fact, she really wanted to tell Albert that if the situation was bad, she would find an excuse to ask for leave and come back when the matter was over, but she didn't say it after all, Albert estimated. Nor will it escape.

"Do snakes eat spiders?" Albert guessed Isobel's thoughts and changed the subject, "If it is a so-called natural enemy, it should be a relationship of predation!"

"I'm not quite sure about this. Could there be other reasons why the Octopus is afraid of the basilisk?" Isobel offered another point~IndoMTL.com~other reasons? "Albert reopened some of the basilisk records in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and the author apparently never saw a basilisk in person.

His eyes landed on "Anyone's eyes will be killed instantly if they meet their eyes." After a while, he suddenly said: "So it is."

"What did you think of?"

"I can probably guess why spiders are afraid of basilisks!" Albert jumped up from his seat and said excitedly: "As we all know, spiders have a wide field of vision, a 360-degree field of vision, and they can't close their eyes. This means that the spider can easily make eye contact with the basilisk, causing immediate death."

Isobel obviously doesn't understand what it means to have a 360-degree field of vision, but probably understands why Albert said spiders are afraid of basilisks.

Next, the two discussed how to prevent a sneak attack by the Slytherin heir.

Although Albert was a little dissatisfied that Isobel gave Katrina the glasses he had given him, he was more worried about her safety.

He wouldn't hand over his protective glasses to Isobel. As a pure-blood wizard, she didn't have to worry too much about the risk of an attack, but Albert's situation was a little bad.

Albert has other options if he doesn't want to take the risk.

It was after the second attack that Tom's diary was intercepted from Ginny.

This is also the best chance.

But the biggest question is what to do after intercepting Tom's diary.

You can't go straight to Dumbledore for a showdown after draining the value of the diary, saying that he has found the heir to Slytherin
