A genius can remember the permanent address of this website in one second: www.81zw.us
In the tower lobby downstairs, the Harrises were basically all here.
Morgan Le Fay was helping Fleur complete the gift list. She glanced up at the family of three coming downstairs, then returned her gaze to the clothing advertisements, and asked casually, "Ellen, Why did you come downstairs? I thought you went out with Ye and Lun... Oh, so you informed us because the basilisk hatched? "
Others present looked up at Allen after reacting.
"Yes, mother, the basilisk has been hatched successfully today, but the rooster's crow is fatal to it, so I asked Maggie to get rid of all the roosters in the house..." I heard Allen's voice , the dark green little basilisk slipped out from under the raven feathers of Allen's robe, but it quickly shrank back after protruding its head. It entangled itself on Allen's shoulder, hissing. Vomiting the letter, he looked at the front of him warily through the crystal shield.
Many people who didn't expect Allen to bring the basilisk down like this had instinctively closed their eyes, but the smart Harris who realized that Allen would not bring danger to them immediately opened his eyes again. , and began to look at this dangerous creature rated as ????? level by the Ministry of Magic.
"The sight of the Basilisk is indeed the most dangerous attacking weapon. Any creature that directly intersects with its gaze will be killed immediately. If it intersects indirectly - for example, creatures seen through reflection in mirrors or water will be restrained by their entire bodies. Petrified and fixed... But don't worry, I put eye masks made of crystal lenses on its eyes..." Allen pressed his finger on the head of the little basilisk, and the little basilisk curled up on his shoulder, lazily Wagging his tail triumphantly, "Of course, wearing ordinary glasses cannot save a person's life when making eye contact with the basilisk, because the glasses can still let the eyes pass through directly instead of reflecting like mirrors and cameras, but I The principle is not to use reflection, but to use ancient magic means to use lenses to directly weaken and absorb the murderous gaze emanating from its eyes."
But even with the isolation of the crystal goggles, everyone felt a slight or severe discomfort after looking at this cute little newborn basilisk.
Fleur turned her head suddenly. She seemed to feel that her whole body had become very stiff, and every movement was very laborious. She opened her mouth with difficulty, only to find that she could not even roll her tongue freely - Fleur joined Harris The time is the shortest, and the soul energy is relatively weak, so it is more uncomfortable when facing the gaze of the little basilisk.
Albert, who originally felt a little dizzy at first glance, was fine. After seeing his fiancée's discomfort, he quickly held Fleur in his arms, helped her to the sofa next to her, and began to show her affection to Fleur in public. Keep comforting.
"You can still have such power while wearing goggles. This little guy is more powerful than you expected, Josephine." Owen shook his head and stopped looking at the basilisk. He turned to look at his sister who seemed completely fine.
"This is a good thing. Many families hope to tame a dangerous magical creature like a basilisk to protect their wealth and family." Aunt Josephine stared at the little basilisk's yellow eyes, "Not counting Slytherin. If we stay at Hogwarts, there will be no recorded sightings of basilisks in Britain for at least four hundred years. The Dangerous Creatures Committee of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, which I manage, occasionally investigates and deals with smuggled snakes. Of course, most of the strange egg incidents are fake. That guy Moody once mistook an alarm clock given to him as a basilisk egg... But I still encountered a smuggling case where the person involved was a real person. It's a pity. They are dead eggs with no signs of life..."
"Alas..." Allen sighed regretfully, "It's a pity, otherwise, if I could get it back, this little guy would have a companion."
"Many of these magical creatures artificially cultivated by wizards do not have the ability to reproduce." Luna sat on the sofa and rested her head on Helena's legs after she had materialized. "But the monkey-faced ones Pets can indeed reproduce normally..." (Author's note: Although there is a saying that basilisks with red hair on their heads are male, there is no official explanation on whether they are truly gendered or whether they can reproduce. However, according to "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" Chapter 17: Among the four warriors, the basilisk itself may also have the ability to reproduce, because Moody once suspected that the gift he received was a "cleverly disguised basilisk egg" and ignored it. 3721 smashed this travel alarm clock, which shows that the basilisk can lay eggs.)
"Ugh...uh uh..."
Morgan Le Fay clutched her chest, a sour smell corroded by gastric juices emanating from the food she vomited.
"If you feel uncomfortable looking at it, just turn your head away. Let's see how hard you try..." Owen hugged his wife, half-supporting and half-hugging Morgan Le Fay to the sofa aside to rest. Like his eldest son, She also started to show off in public, and Enai continued to comfort Morgan Le Fay.
Kreacher, the house elf who appeared before Maggie, quickly cleaned up the vomit with a wave of his fingers, then took out his perfume bottle and sprayed it thoughtfully, then bowed to the surrounding owners before disappearing. In situ.
However, after this incident, almost no one in the family, including Owen, was willing to look into the eyes of this dangerous little basilisk. Although it was not fatal, the almost petrified feeling made them uncomfortable - and Daisy and Fleur seemed to agree on this, as neither of them liked snakes very much.
"They are also your family...protect them..." Allen lowered his jaw slightly, lowered his head and whispered to the little basilisk. The little basilisk, which was unable to understand much information because of its age, raised its head in confusion, and after Allen passed the enslavement gem After conveying what he was thinking once more, the little guy finally understood.
"Everyone's best, come up one by one and let them identify it." Allen saw that the basilisk understood the order and called everyone forward.
Aunt Josephine, who was closest to us, took the lead. She stretched out her pale hand and let the little basilisk get entangled with it. Then she felt the coldness on each other's bodies. "It's hard for other magical creatures to see us wizards from our appearance." We can tell them apart, after all, they look similar to us, but snakes have a very developed sense of smell, and the basilisk can also remember people's voices, but this one is a bit too young, so we'd better be more patient. Try to spend more time with it..."
After Josephine passed by, his brother Owen looked a little too relaxed. He obviously realized his state and smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "Actually, owning a basilisk was something I wanted to do before. It’s something I don’t even dare to think about. At that time, I would probably be afraid of going to jail if someone gave me one... But since Ellen went to Hogwarts, I seem to be somewhat immune to these things..."
"I wouldn't dare to raise it without the slave gem." Allen gently pulled the little basilisk's tail affectionately. "This little guy's attack intention is much stronger than imagined."
Owen secretly turned his head and glanced at Luna on the sofa. When he found that Luna was distracted again, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, and then said openly: "Speaking of which, Penelo brought this rooster egg with you when he was on your mission in Africa." It's really hard for this girl to come back... Now that Ellen is hatched, please remember to inform her... Also, Ellen, how are Penelo's parents persuading? Where are Hermione's parents? They all agreed to move there by then. Is your school city?"
"Uh... probably not yet. I'll make sure when I send the message later..." Allen didn't pay much attention to the matter after the two witches said that they could solve it. Only after being asked by his father this time, did he feel As a sponsor, he should be more concerned about it.
"So cute!"
It turned out that Emily, who was preparing to go on stage, saw that her father did not step aside but was chatting with Allen. She could not hold back her temper and walked over directly. She endured the strong paralysis in her body and kept looking at the basilisk. This creature that is both cute and full of danger is full of admiration, "Alan, have you given it a name?"
"Merope." Allen's tone contained a little pride.
Owen frowned at the side: "Melope? It seems that you really sympathize with the mysterious man?"
"Well, no, father, I just think that the surname Gunter behind the name is quite suitable for this snake. After all, they can be considered to have the blood of Salazar Slytherin." Allen now found a reason to explain. , and then he remembered that according to the customs here, naming a child after an elder is mostly out of commemoration and respect - for example, the full name of James Potter's son Harry Potter is Harry James. Potter, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net And Harry’s unborn eldest son was named by Harry after his father, also called James Sirius Potter, that is, James Potter...
Realizing that Luna must have been looking into his brain just now, Allen pretended to be angry and glared at Luna on the sofa. Luna just said lightly, "Since there is a Resurrection Stone, then their family may also be Cadmore." S. Peverell is the descendant of the second eldest brother in the story of the three brothers of Death..."
Owen noticed the puzzled look Emily looked at them, and habitually turned his head and shouted: "Len, please explain to everyone the meaning of the name Merop."
However, there was no reply. Owen looked back strangely to look for Lunn among his family members. Allen also turned around and scanned the faces of his family members, and suddenly realized that he had made a mistake - before leaving, he asked Lunn to deal with the dark wizard by himself. , and asked him to buy local specialty fruit brandy, and Lunn did not have the ability to directly apparate back from Bulgaria all at once...
In this case, it would indeed take a while for Lun En to return home, and no one was aware of Lun En's usual absence just now - his presence was too low when nothing happened.
