Chapter 912 The Role of the Clan Emblem

"Spit it out--"

Amosta said calmly with an indifferent look on the basilisk.

Hiss--

The fierce basilisk spit out its snake tongue, and the hissing sound sounded a little aggrieved.

Salazar Slytherin was the creator of this basilisk. To it, Slytherin was like a father. It obeyed Slytherin's instructions and stayed in the secret room for a thousand years. During the long years, only when Slytherin's descendants occasionally returned to Hogwarts, it was able to release its nature for a short time.

In Wright's simple mind, since Slytherin hid the family emblem in its fangs, then this was a gift from its father to it, and the powerful wizard in front of it was forcing it to teach its father's gift.

The blazing fire collar floated up and down slightly, but it brought a piercing chill to the basilisk. It knew very well that the wizard in front of it was not afraid to destroy it.

"Amosta--"

Seeing that the hot-tempered Wright, who had been with him for a long time, looked weak in front of Amosta, Newt couldn't bear it.

"That badge is the only thing Wright misses about Salazar Slytherin. I can convince him to spit it out, but can you please not take it away?"

"Sorry, Newt, I can't guarantee you about this."

Amosta didn't want to lie to Newt, he said calmly,

"Although I can't prove it, I am very sure that Salazar Slytherin left this badge, most likely for me, so I must take it."

Amosta's words made Newt frown.

He didn't quite understand what Amosta meant. Salazar Slytherin, who lived thousands of years ago, left a family badge for him, and even used such a covert method. What did Amosta want to say? He was a direct descendant of Slytherin?

This was unlikely. As everyone knows, Amosta Blaine was born a Muggle, and the descendants of Slytherin recognized by the British magic academic community were the Gaunt family.

Although he had only met Amosita twice and the total time spent together was less than half a day, Newt believed that he had a certain understanding of this young man through hearsay and brief exchanges. He faced the pair of calm lavender eyes and knew that he could not convince Amosita to change his mind.

Newt gave up persuading, sighed heavily, and remained silent. Amosita once again set his eyes on the basilisk.

"Spit out the badge."

Amosita said again,

"Don't make me repeat it for the third time."

What could the 'weak' Wright do?

It had only two choices, either spit out the badge left by its father, or be forced to hand over the badge after being burned to ashes by the gray-haired wizard.

So, Wright's huge body began to tremble, and its abdomen close to the ground slowly squirmed, and the badge swallowed by it was slowly pushed to the snake's mouth.

Poof--

A badge wrapped in light green gastric juice, but still shining with metallic luster, spurted out of the basilisk's mouth. Amostard blinked and let the badge hover in front of him.

Amostard curled his fingers, and as a breeze passed over the badge, the palm-sized, one-inch thick metal plate suddenly became as bright as new.

Just as Newt said before.

The main body of the badge is a piece of mithril.

In today's magic world, this extremely precious magic metal is rarely used to make any artifacts. Only those precise and expensive alchemical tools will use mithril to engrave magic corridors at their core.

The patterns of the Slytherin family crest on the front and back of the heavy badge are melted with gold, just like the locket. The vivid 'S' in the center of the pattern is embellished with pure emeralds, and the side profile of the badge is engraved with exquisite patterns.

Looking at the Slytherin family crest spinning slowly in front of him, Amostard's eyes flashed with contemplation.

Unlike the locket, there are obvious traces of magic on the badge, but Amosita couldn't tell the specific effect of the magic for a while, but one thing that was certain was that this badge belonging to Slytherin was not like the sword, crown, golden cup, locket and the resurrection stone ring, which could be traced in some documents.

Slytherin must have left it for a deep meaning, there is no doubt about that.

Amosita hesitated for a moment, he glanced at the basilisk that was faintly depressed, not only did he not loosen the fire ring on its neck, but tightened it a little more. Before Newt shouted nervously, Amosita stretched out his hand.

Click ---

Under Amosita's slightly nervous gaze, the cold and heavy family emblem fell into his hand.

There was no brilliance, no flashing light and shadow, everything in the cellar was normal, only Newt's serious voice of stopping.

Staring at the family emblem, Amosita frowned quietly.

Of the four great founders of Hogwarts, he has personally seen Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. He has even had unilateral interactions with Gryffindor across time and space. Only Salazar Slytherin has not been seen by Amosstar yet.

He has always been looking forward to it. After all, he graduated from Salazar Slytherin's house. But he doesn't know if it is because this great founder despises himself as a Muggle-born, Slytherin has never appeared in front of him.

His closest contact with this unique founder was the sculpture of Slytherin himself in front of the Chamber of Secrets, the door that Gryffindor called the door that hid all secrets.

Amosta originally thought that this family emblem would be an opportunity for him to meet Slytherin, but the reality was not what he expected.

The heavy clan emblem lying in the palm of Amosta's hand was like a valuable work of art. There was no movement except for the radiance.

"What do you think it is?"

Rubbing the pattern on the family emblem back and forth with his fingertips, Amosta looked over it for several minutes, but still couldn't find any clues. He unconsciously asked Newt.

Newt had already understood that Amosta tightened the ring of fire just to prevent Wright from causing trouble when he was studying the family crest left by Slytherin. He sighed slightly and stood quietly beside Amosta, accompanying him. Watch him gaze at Slytherin's legacy.

Hearing Amosta's question, Newt tilted his head. When he first got the clan emblem, he had been studying it for a short period of time, but he didn't gain much.

"Unfortunately, Amosta, I am not a historian or emblemologist. I did go through some records about Salazar Slytherin, but I did not find any information about the emblem of this emblem. Any record that appeared thousands of years ago, I can only tell that it was probably written by goblins."

"Probably from goblins--"

Amosta repeated in a low voice.

This is not difficult to judge. The creations of goblins have a very unique style. The fine and exquisite lines on the border of this family emblem are proof that it came from the hands of goblins. This is not a novel thing. The four Those things left by the founder were all made by fairies, but some of them were later given magical powers by wizards.

Amosta turned the thick family crest side up and stared at the wide pattern.

When he was investigating Hermione's attack, Amosta learned from a goblin named Engel at Gringotts World Bank in Paris that these patterns were not just decorations, but were actually remote goblin writing. .

Turning the clan emblem back and forth and looking at the patterns, Amosta narrowed his eyes slightly.

Gringotts. Goblin Slytherin key?

Gradually, a vague guess emerged in Amosta's mind.

"I need to take this clan emblem away--"

After taking a long breath, Amosta looked at Newt.

"I kind of know what it does, but I need to confirm."

Newt nodded, hesitated for a moment, and looked at Wright, who was lying on the ground.

"If one day this Slytherin emblem no longer works for you, can you return it to Wright, Amosta?"
