Chapter 192: Conceited People Are Easier to Deceive

The magic circle emitted white light, dispelling the darkness in the secret room.

But the difference was that this time the formation also gushed out red flames, and Aaron consumed more than twice the magic power than before.

When the light faded, two magical animals appeared in the same place, a white holy dragon and a red phoenix.

Abe flew to Aaron, flapping his wings as if to ask for credit, "How is it? This is the strong helper I found."

"I was wondering why you are so tired!

But are you sure you found this phoenix?" Aaron glanced at Fawkes, who threw the Sorting Hat to Harry and quietly perched on his shoulder, and his mouth twitched, "I am embarrassed to expose you."

At this time, a rumbling sound came from above, and the statue of Salazar opened its mouth wide, and the sound of the venomous snake spitting out its tongue was clearly heard by everyone.

"Take Ginny and run quickly, don't look back." Aaron said immediately, "Go to the other side of the barrier, as long as there is the crowing of a rooster, the basilisk will not dare to approach."

"What will you do?" Harry asked worriedly, "You can't beat the basilisk alone."

"I have my own way." Aaron took a deep breath, stretched his right hand in the air, and took out a silver sword from a red magic circle.

"What are you doing? Are you staying here to hold me back?

I have received professional training and can fight with my eyes closed, but you can't do it."

The three of them immediately picked up the cold Ginny. At this time, Fox flew away from Harry's shoulder, and the red figure rushed straight to the ceiling.

"Come back, Fox." Harry shouted anxiously. The phoenix is ​​magical, but he doesn't think the phoenix can beat the basilisk. Their size is too different.

However, the next scene subverted their cognition and shocked them.

Fox circled around the basilisk, not hesitating to look at it, and was completely immune to the magic of the basilisk.

The basilisk stood on the shoulder of the Salazar statue, with a body thicker than a tree trunk, opened its sharp fangs, and bit Fox angrily.

Fox did not retreat but advanced, avoiding the fangs and flying to the top of the basilisk.

The long golden beak pierced the green scales of the basilisk and pecked its head several times in a row, and black blood fell from above to the ground.

The basilisk was in great pain, twisting its body constantly, and fell from the high stone statue to the ground, shaking the ground constantly.

But Fox did not stop, and his two claws pierced into the yellow eyes of the basilisk, scratching them bloody and fuzzy, and everyone present felt particularly nauseous.

But when they thought that the basilisk was blind and its magic could not be used, they couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Although it had no eyes, the basilisk still had fangs and a huge body, but its deterrence had been greatly reduced. At least everyone had the courage to face it.

"No, leave the bird, leave the bird." Riddle screamed in anger. He looked at the four people who were proud and restrained his emotions. "Don't be happy too early. Even without eyes, the basilisk can still hear the sound and smell your scent. It can easily kill you." "Huh? I have to say this. The you you are talking about does not include me. I thought I had to blindfold myself to kill the snake, but I didn't expect that the difficulty would drop by more than half. I am more or less confident in dealing with a giant snake that can't see." Riddle gritted his teeth and was about to wave his wand to attack. "You just said you wouldn't interfere. Could it be that the famous Dark Lord would not keep his word?" Aaron said lightly. "You..." Riddle sneered, "You don't really think that a phoenix can kill the basilisk! Even if the basilisk is covered with wounds, it is still easy to bite a few little wizards to death." As he spoke, a snake tail swept over. Mixed with the sound of the wind, it was like a green wall rolling over.

Harry and the other two immediately put Ginny down and lay on the ground to avoid the tail, while Aaron raised the long sword in his hand to block, and half of the silver blade cut into the snake's tail like a hot knife cutting butter.

While leaving a sword wound on the basilisk, he was pushed more than ten meters away before barely stopping.

"Aaron, are you okay!" Harry asked.

"Fortunately, the basilisk is too big.

Although my sword is sharp, it is difficult to cause fatal injuries."

The wound on the tail stimulated the ferocity of the basilisk. It suddenly stood up, knocked away the phoenix, and then opened its bloody mouth and pounced on Aaron.

The basilisk's mouth was wide open, and two rows of fangs flashed cold light, and venom comparable to strong acid oozed out from the teeth.

Aaron calmly grasped the long sword, dodged sideways when the forked tongue rolled over, and accurately stabbed the long sword into the basilisk's jaw, and black blood gushed out instantly.

The basilisk hissed in pain and tried to throw Aaron away.

But he held the long sword tightly and did not let go. At the same time, the first black magic crystal on the hilt began to flicker, greedily absorbing the basilisk's blood, even the venom.

After holding on for more than a minute, Aaron was hit against the pillar by the basilisk several times. It was not until he saw the second magic crystal light up that he drew his sword and pulled a little distance from the basilisk.

"Great, but isn't this too exaggerated?" Ron couldn't help but say.

Harry nodded blankly, and Hermione's eyes were twinkling with little stars.

At this time, a hissing sound appeared behind the few people. Hermione immediately stood in front of Harry and Ron, and raised her wand nervously, "Will the dignified Dark Lord really go back on his word?"

"He didn't go back on his word." Harry said with tears in his eyes, "He is letting the basilisk deal with us first."

"What?"

"Isn't it normal to clean up the garbage on the chessboard first?" Riddle said with a sinister smile, "Gaius is qualified to be my opponent, but you guys are really a bit of an eyesore."

Gulu!

Ron swallowed his saliva and looked at Harry desperately, "What are you talking about!

Aren't you a Parseltongue? You should be able to control the basilisk, right?"

"Hahaha..." Riddle laughed wildly, his expression became particularly ferocious, "The Parseltongue can't help you. It only obeys me, the heir of Slytherin with Salazar's blood."

The basilisk abandoned Aaron and swooped over with its green body.

"There are many obstacles!"

Hermione cast several obstacle spells in succession, but the pale golden light was bounced off the basilisk.

Even if she conjured some protruding stones on the floor, she couldn't stop the basilisk from rushing around, but only slowed down its movements.

"You have some talent, but the basilisk is a top magical creature. With your current magic power, it will only delay your death for a few seconds." Riddle explained gloatingly. It was a pleasure to watch these junior wizards struggling in despair after finally getting out of the diary.

"What should we do?" Ron said incoherently, "We don't have Aaron's exaggerated melee ability."

"Let's take Ginny to avoid this round first." Hermione said, but she was unsure as she looked at the green snake head getting closer and closer.

Harry wanted to say something, but at this time, the inside of the Sorting Hat flickered with light, and he reached his right hand in and pulled out a shiny silver sword with a red gem the size of an egg on the hilt.

Unlike the long sword in Aaron's hand, the sword in Harry's hand was slightly thinner. Although it was sharp, it was more luxurious and more like it was prepared for a duel.

"Okay!" Harry calmed down, and thinking of Aaron's performance just now, he suddenly felt a great courage in his heart.

Hermione and Aaron's performance just now has proved that with their current magic level, they can't deal with this giant snake that has lived for thousands of years, but cold weapons can still cause damage to it.

And now the basilisk is definitely scarred, and it may not be impossible to kill it with a fight.

"Let me try, you guys stay away for a while."

"You're crazy." Ron asked in astonishment.

Harry didn't answer, but just got into position and looked directly at the bloody mouth mixed with venom and blood.

"Abe!"

Aaron shouted, and the dragon roar like the sound of nature appeared in everyone's ears.

The three-meter-tall holy dragon exuded white holy light, and pressed a claw on the top of the basilisk's head, forcing it to stop a few meters in front of Harry.

Harry looked at the giant dragon so close, and couldn't recover for a while.

Hermione and Ron were also stunned. They had seen the scene of Abe's transformation last year, but at that time it was only more than one meter, which was nothing compared to now.

Roar!

Abe roared, and his two dragon claws pressed against the upper and lower jaws of the basilisk. A white magic circle appeared in front of him, and he was about to send a dragon breath into the body of the basilisk.

Abe had enough confidence. Although the basilisk was several times bigger than it, this move would definitely roast it.

However, the next moment, Aaron said in a low voice: Don't kill it yet. If you kill it, I will have to face the young Voldemort.

I can't beat him now, even if you, Fawkes and the others in the secret room are added, it will be difficult.

I need time to prepare. In addition, you go to find Riddle's diary, but don't act rashly, this is related to our lives.

Abe paused for a moment, swallowed the flames at the edge of his mouth, and then flapped his wings and used his sharp claws to cut a long cut on the basilisk.

A painful hissing sounded, and the basilisk twisted its body in pain, so Harry and his friends escaped from the snake's mouth.

"What are you doing? Stay away now!" Aaron reminded unhappily.

Harry nodded hurriedly, followed Ron and Hermione, and took the cold Ginny to hide behind a snake pillar at the entrance.

"Was that dragon language just now?" Riddle said with some surprise, "You are indeed gifted, and you also have a magical dragon by your side."

"You're too kind. After all, it's a wizard family that has been passed down for thousands of years, so it still has some heritage." Aaron waved his hand, pretending to be indifferent and looking at the two lit black magic crystals on the hilt, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

"I'm curious, the dragon could have killed the basilisk just now, but why did you stop it?"

"Because... it's fair." Aaron said nonsense seriously, "You said that I, like you, would do anything to achieve my goal, but there are still some bottom lines that must be adhered to.

You could have easily killed Harry and the others just now, but you didn't. Even if the basilisk was in a huge disadvantage, you could have resisted the urge to do it.

You can keep your promise, so I naturally have to make this duel fairer."

"Humph!" Riddle's mouth corners slightly raised, chuckled and said, "You deserve your noble bloodline, I really didn't misjudge you.

Aaron Gaius, as long as you can defeat the basilisk, I can spare you today. It's a pity for someone like you to die.

Just wait! After I rule the wizarding world, I will definitely visit you. I hope that your choice will be wiser by then."

Aaron:......

I'm a little flattered for some reason!

As expected, conceited people are easier to deceive.
