Chapter 1045 The Disaster Is Spreading
Italy, Sicily, the coast of Pachino.
Back then, when Maca took Willie to look for the small island of Rowena, it was from here that he left Italy and entered the Mediterranean Sea.
But now, this place has fallen into a dead silence because of the arrival of a giant snake.
The houses in the small town on the shore were only ruined walls, and the Muggle residents who suffered unprovoked disasters fled in all directions, and there was a desolate scene everywhere.
According to some Muggles, there was once a huge, faintly visible figure that looked like a snake. But not only no one can see its specific appearance, its size is unprecedented.
Wherever they passed, the streets collapsed and houses collapsed, and the scene was extremely terrifying.
However, what puzzled the wizards of the Federation who went to investigate was that it happened at dawn, and most of the Muggles were sleeping at home, but until they realized something and fled here, they suffered directly from the " The "big guy" didn't kill many people.
Undoubtedly, that "huge figure" was probably the basilisk that had been raging in Waggadu, Africa for a while, but why didn't the Muggles in Sicily suffer as much casualties as the teachers and students in Waggadu this time?
Of course, there is another question that is obviously more important now, and that is—where did the infested basilisk go ashore after Pachino landed?
Maca looked at the latest information delivered by Aginbad, and after reading all of it, he frowned solemnly and said to himself:
"After Africa...Is Italy?"
It is not surprising that the basilisk chose this route from the African continent into the Mediterranean Sea and then north to Sicily, Italy. But if it continues to move forward, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not continue to France, which is closely connected with the Italian territory.
and this,
I'm afraid it's also the last direction Maca wants to see the development of the incident.
If the next time the basilisk appears is in France, how will he choose then? Do you believe that Mr. Blois will handle this matter well, or does he temporarily leave the British magic world and go to France to solve this big trouble for Willy and others?
Perhaps precisely because it might threaten the lives of everyone in Fort Blois, Maca couldn't help hesitating.
Now, the day when the meteorite fell was getting closer and closer, and Hai Erbo's secret actions were becoming more and more frequent. At this time, he really didn't want to leave casually.
Fortunately, this embarrassing multiple-choice question didn't bother him for too long.
...
The news that the basilisk appeared in Italy has not yet appeared in the major newspapers of wizards. Perhaps it will soon be published by newspapers such as the Daily Prophet, but it will definitely take time.
However, the information about Waggadu in Africa, which everyone failed to obtain before, has finally become articles after articles, gradually entering the eyes of the wizarding people.
"All members of the wizarding team of the Federation were injured. The president, Mr. Akinbad, lost his left arm and an eye. The Waggadu School of Magic suffered heavy casualties... This is another huge disaster after the nightmare in London. what!"
In Hogwarts, the young wizards are now mostly talking about the incident in newspapers and magazines about Waggadu in Africa. Especially the news that the culprit suddenly disappeared in the African magic world made everyone feel worried.
Because no one knows where the next bad luck will be.
"It also says that the basilisk does not show fear of the crowing of the rooster... The biggest weakness of this basilisk is no longer its weakness. So, if we encounter it in the future, You have to think of other ways to deal with it first..."
At this moment, Hermione is seriously analyzing for everyone the things that should be considered before meeting the Basilisk.
They had also encountered a real basilisk back then, so they could be considered familiar with the terrifying and magical creature like the basilisk.
However, the article in the "Daily Prophet" also made it very clear-the basilisk that once raged in Waggadu is undoubtedly very different from the one in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets. .
"Of course, before thinking about how to deal with it, we must first understand that the eyes of the basilisk are deadly! When facing it, we must not make direct contact with its sight...not even indirectly, because in that case Even if you don't die on the spot, you will be petrified into a statue..."
Listening to Hermione's narration, Ron couldn't help but said in distress:
"Actually, I wondered a few years ago. If we kept our eyes closed, how would we deal with it? No, I think, even escaping will become a difficult thing by then, right? "
"That's why we have to find a way!" Hermione said, "For example, judge the movement of the basilisk by listening to the sound - I know, this is not an easy task, but at least it is a direction that can be tried."
"How should I try?" Neville asked, "Training blindfolded?"
"Well," Hermione nodded, "I think I can give it a try."
The members of r.a. are highly motivated to do exercises that can improve their chances of survival. In the evening of that day, everyone started the training of blindfolded listening to the voice in the Room of Requirement.
Hermione made everyone blindfolded, and she used the levitation spell to control a wooden board as a target, making some movements in various places in the room again and again, guiding everyone to wave their wands to release a variety of lights , to hit the target as much as possible as the purpose of training.
To be honest, although the effect of this training is there, the progress is quite slow. If you keep practicing like this, God knows when it will be able to be used in actual combat.
Maybe when the basilisks appeared in the British magic world, they hadn't been trained enough to be used in actual combat.
After pondering for a while, Hermione suddenly turned her attention to Luna who was also training with her—she already knew that Luna could sense magic power.
Therefore, if it were Luna, she might be able to directly determine the location of the basilisk through the perception of magic power.
So, can Luna's ability be used?
Not long after, Hermione thought that some methods of ancient magic literature might be able to realize her idea. It's just how to do it specifically, which can't be figured out in a while.
Therefore, before she figured out a feasible plan, the training of fighting blindfolded had to continue. Not to mention anything else, at least let everyone be able to ensure their own survival when encountering the basilisk.
To be honest, for some reason, Hermione felt that the chances of the Basilisk appearing in England were not low.
