Chapter 235 Dealing with the Basilisk

The next day, in the afternoon, Harry looked at the somewhat absent-minded Ivan at the Gryffindor table and asked curiously.

"Ivan, did you catch Dobby last night?"

"Of course, but Dobby has lost that thing." Ivan nodded, and then said.

Harry put down his knife and fork in surprise and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention, Harry asked in a low voice. "Then what should we do?"

"Don't worry, I will find that person as soon as possible," Ivan said comfortingly.

When Harry saw Ivan say this, he immediately felt relieved.

In fact, Ivan is also having a headache about this. There are so many people in the school, and Horcruxes are easy to hide. Finding the person who has obtained the Horcrux is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

After dinner, Ivan refused Harry's request to accompany him and went to the abandoned girls' bathroom alone.

Maka, who had been watching here for a long time, flew over quickly when she saw Ivan arriving.

"Has anyone been here before? Maka?" Ivan asked, and the latter shook his head.

Ivan was relieved. It seemed that it was not that easy for Tom to confuse someone, at least it couldn't be done in just a few days.

As early as the day the Horcrux disappeared, Ivan asked his owl to monitor the corridor outside the girls' bathroom. Whenever he saw someone coming in or heard any other noise, he would immediately report it to him.

People can also hide themselves by using the Illusion Charm, but there is only one way to enter the secret room.

If you want to enter, you must open this entrance. The movement caused during this period will never be hidden from the owl with sensitive hearing.

So as long as we keep an eye on this place, sooner or later we will be able to catch the person who took away the Horcrux.

Of course, this premise is that he must deal with the basilisk first before setting this place as a trap!

Otherwise, the opponent and the basilisk will attack him together.

After all, Tom Riddle's ability to control the basilisk is much better than what he does now.

This is very detrimental to him!

"Hiss~ (Open!)" Ivan spoke snake language to the mechanism at the entrance. With a burst of vibration, the passage was slowly opened, and then he jumped down and entered.

When he came to the secret room again, Ivan was already familiar with it.

However, Ivan did not relax his vigilance and was always on guard against accidents. It was not until he used the Hushen Guard to confirm that the basilisk was still obediently staying in the lair that he finally felt relieved.

"Speak to me, Slytherin - the greatest of the four giants of Hogwarts" Ivan said and opened the door to the basilisk's lair.

The basilisk quickly responded to the call and crawled out of the mouth of the Slytherin statue, winding its huge body. The ferocious snake head came close to Ivan and spit out the letter.

"Hiss~ (Eating Acromantula)"

Ivan didn't expect that the basilisk would always remember this incident, so he spoke. "First take me to the research laboratory again. I have to look at the information again, and then I will take you to eat Acromantula."

The basilisk nodded, agreed, and leaned down to take Ivan into the lair like last time.

"If I need to study it, can I take some of your blood?" Ivan suddenly asked.

The basilisk didn't speak. It opened its big mouth full of fangs and roared at Ivan for a while, with murderous intent revealed in its glowing pupils.

Although the previous two controllers had taken blood from it more than once, that was based on its inability to resist.

The Parseltongue of the little wizard in front of him is not so powerful that it can force it to obey orders.

Ivan was silent. He originally had some hope for the basilisk, thinking that after fusing the snake's blood, he would be able to have a powerful helper.

It's a pity that the loss of the Horcrux turned the basilisk from a help to a threat again!

Just now was the last chance he gave the basilisk, but the other party obviously looked very ungrateful.

In this regard, Ivan could only say sorry. His improved potion can be brewed within three days, so today is just the right time to take blood!

"I hope those Acromantulas can be a little more powerful. After all, they are also magical creatures. If they have a whole nest, they can still make the Basilisk eat them to fullness!" Ivan murmured to himself, and then changed to another one. With his secondary expression, he used snake language to comfort the basilisk and let it take him to the research room first.

He needs to take out some useful information first

So that you don’t have to climb up by yourself next time.

Late at night, by the lakeside of Hogwarts, a long black shadow passed quickly from the water. The fish in the water fled in all directions in fear, making waves in the water.

After a while, a huge flat head emerged from the water, and Ivan, who was lying on it, coughed several times with difficulty.

"As I thought, there are always pipelines that can lead directly to here. Even the smell of the sewer is a bit too unpleasant." Ivan jumped off the basilisk's big head and looked at the dense black woods around him. Said with emotion.

"Hiss~ (I smell their scent!)" The basilisk began to stir, and it smelled the alluring fragrance again, and there were many of them.

Ivan did not stop him anymore and allowed the basilisk to wander in the forbidden forest and start its hunting plan!

To avoid accidentally injuring Hagrid, who often came to the Forbidden Forest, or the centaurs who stayed in the Forbidden Forest, Ivan specifically chose to start in the early morning, when most intelligent creatures were sleeping.

Moreover, Ivan had roughly determined the location of Aragog's lair from the escape route of the spiders in the school, and the login location was nearby.

It minimizes the possibility of being seen. If another unlucky guy bumps into him, Ivan can only say sorry.

It didn't take long for the Basilisk to rely on its keen sense of smell to successfully find the Acromantula's nest and get in excitedly.

The Acromantulas were obviously not aware of the basilisk's attack, or they sensed it but had not had time to escape. The sound of the basilisk biting its prey suddenly sounded in the lair.

Immediately afterwards, countless little spiders emerged from the cave. They were extremely small and were ordinary spiders that crawled over to take refuge in the castle. They probably did not expect that the basilisk would come directly to kill them in their lair.

However, it is precisely because of their small size that the basilisk's eyes cannot be seen at all, and the basilisk has no interest in eating them, so it is actually safe.

Ivan stood guard outside the door, looking at the five buttons in his hand. It had to be said that the fifth-level transformation spell had initially achieved complete transformation, so that he could easily turn the five roosters into buttons and take them with him directly.

"It should be almost done." Ivan waited for a long time and noticed that the movement inside was getting smaller and smaller, and then slowly walked into the cave, with the patron saint surrounding him as his eyes.
