Chapter 911 Another Slytherin Relic

A huge roar resounded throughout the dark room, and the heavy impact made the huge room tremble. What was even more fatal was that under the panicked impact of the basilisk, Salazar Slytherin's leg was broken directly from the knee, and the huge stone pillar fell and hit Amosstar and Newt.

This sudden change shocked Newt so much that he didn't react at all. Amosstar had to pull Newt's arm and drag the legendary magical animal expert to the side a few steps to prevent him from dying in such a shameful way.

Boom!!!

The stone leg like a mountain pillar fell down with a bang, and the strong vibration bounced Amosstar and Newt off the ground. The whole stone room was shaking in the aftermath of the tremor, and smoke and dust fell from the sky like drizzle. Fortunately, Amosstar quickly supported the milky white barrier, so that the two did not become more embarrassed.

But something even more fatal happened!

The huge statue with one leg missing was shaken by the chain reaction caused by the vibration. The statue, which was dozens of feet high, lost its stability and tilted to one side. Such a large stone pier fell on the ground, which must have shaken the converted cellar.

Now, even Amosta frowned.

He suddenly raised his index finger, and a cluster of small golden flames appeared on his fingertips. Then, he bent his fingers and the small flames immediately left his fingertips and grew in the air. When they fell on the stone statue, they had become a golden curtain of fire that covered the sky and the earth, covering Slytherin's face, which was obviously deformed by some magic experiments when he was old!

Magical creations are easier to melt.

Like snow meeting spring, the huge Slytherin sculpture melted rapidly from the top. Before the body tilted much, the huge statue disappeared in front of Newt as if it was erased.

Huh!

Amosta waved his sleeves and created a gust of wind, which swept away all the smoke and dust that had not yet been swept away. The flames that burned the statue flew up to the ceiling and turned into bright stars. For a moment, the dark room was as bright as day.

After doing all this, Amosta finally had time to look at the basilisk that caused trouble, and when he saw this, he was immediately speechless.

Most of the basilisk's huge body was deeply embedded in the wall, and only half of its tail was exposed in the air, swinging wildly. It probably wanted to drill through the wall and leave, but it had already reached the limit of the space sealed by the traceless extension spell. No matter how hard it tried, it could not move forward at all!

Crackle, clackle, clackle!

But the basilisk did not know this, it still squirmed wildly, breaking large pieces of stone chips!

Newt stared at the basilisk that seemed to have turned into a 'burrowing earthworm' in astonishment and confusion. After holding it in for a long time, his wrinkled cheeks trembled as he looked at Amostar.

"What have you done to it?"

"Nothing."

Amostar frowned and thought for a while, "The last time I met it, it was trying to kill a few little wizards, so, I... um, scared it?"

After that, Amostar responded to Newt's stare 'innocently'.

In fact, he also missed a point. At that time, he dismembered the Horcrux of the descendant of Salazar Slytherin in front of the basilisk.

The basilisk was still tossing around endlessly, which was quite annoying. Amostar raised his hand and moved his fingers. One of the stars illuminating the ceiling fell down and turned into a huge flaming sword on the basilisk that drilled into the wall, ready to cut it.

The swinging snake tail straightened up all of a sudden.

Amosta walked over slowly and said calmly,

"Come out."

Swish--

The snake's tail curled up, and the basilisk shook its body again, but this time it did not flee forward, but retreated backward. After another round of tossing and turning, with a bang, the basilisk returned to the cellar and lay in front of Amosta with a dusty face.

The flaming sword above the basilisk lost its sword form and softened into a rope, which fell down and wrapped around the huge snake head of the basilisk to form a suspended collar. During the whole process, the basilisk was honest and motionless. It still remembered that it was burned by this kind of flame, and the destructive breath contained in it made it tremble.

"I thought it only understood Parseltongue."

Amosta turned his head to look at Newt, and said a little happily, but he was sure that after Newt heard him speak, a trace of green air flashed across his face, but in the end, he sighed helplessly,

"Perhaps violence can make magical animals surrender temporarily, Amosta, but you will never be able to gain their sincerity, and you will never be able to be friends."

Amosta nodded knowingly, then looked at the blind eyes of the basilisk, and said calmly and indifferently,

"Open your mouth."

The basilisk spit out a small piece of snake tongue, seeming a little indignant and a little aggrieved. What could it do? The wizard in front of it seemed to be more fierce and powerful than last time. It could only do as it was told, and slowly opened its mouth, revealing two rows of ferocious and terrifying fangs with a strong fishy smell.

Amosta looked at it for a few times, and soon saw the two empty spaces in the basilisk's lower jaw and a row of fangs.

"Dumbledore took one of the fangs?"

Newt was stunned by the cooperation of the basilisk. He took a deep breath and walked to the side of Amosta.

"That's right--"

Newt nodded,

"Not long after Wright was sent to me, Albus wrote to me and said that he hoped to have one of Wright's fangs for research. So, I took one out and sent it to Albus while checking Wright's teeth."

After a pause, Newt bent down and pointed to another empty space and said,

"About October last year, Wright became very manic for a while. I communicated with him for a long time before he was willing to tell me that one of his teeth was uncomfortable. I guess it was lost. That fang gave it a psychological shadow

Anyway, I checked its teeth again and found that the root of the fang buried in the gum was severely corroded and loose. So, I convinced Wright to let me remove the fang for it. To my surprise, after I pulled out the bad tooth, I discovered that the tooth was hollow, with a Slytherin family crest made of mithril and gold and embellished with emeralds hidden inside. "

Seeing Amosta squinting his eyes and listening carefully, Newt took a breath and continued,

"I asked Wright, but he didn't know anything about it. He didn't know why he had this thing hidden in his teeth, but he did recognize the name Salazar on the exquisite Slytherin emblem. The scent of Slytherin himself."

Amosta rubbed his fingers.

"Have you told Headmaster Dumbledore about this?"

"I did mention it in my letter to Albus, and Albus was also very interested. He wanted to see the badge, but I told Albus that Wright was very obsessed with the symbol on the badge. The breath of Racha himself, so it begged me to return the badge to it in Wright's belly.

Albus asked me to confirm with Wright whether no one else had touched the badge from it. After getting the answer, he gave up his plan to get the badge. But Albus said, if I have a chance to meet you, I can Tell you this. "

Amosta stood with his hands behind his hands, thinking quietly.

When Dumbledore first heard about this, his first reaction was probably that it was another Horcrux hidden by Voldemort, but then he should have understood that this possibility was unlikely.

First of all, the basilisk has told Newt that it knows nothing about this family emblem.

Secondly, it was impossible for Voldemort to make such a mistake and let his two Horcruxes collide, as this would greatly increase the risk of exposure.

Thirdly, if the basilisk's teeth were really Horcruxes, there would be no need for Lucius Malfoy to send the notebook back to Hogwarts for the Chamber of Secrets to be opened.

It should be Salazar Slytherin himself.

Dumbledore knew what he was supposed to be tracking down, and it was related to the four founders of Hogwarts. He had previously taken back the Ravenclaw crown from Dumbledore, and had also inspected the relics of the Big Four. is extremely concerned about the mysterious runes.

Dumbledore may have thought that this badge might be related to what he was investigating, and in order to avoid the misunderstanding that he was peeking into his secrets, he asked Newt to tell him.

Amosta glanced at Newt, who was looking at him curiously, hesitated for a moment, and his gaze on the basilisk's giant mouth became indifferent again.

"Spit it out."

Amosta said.
