Chapter 80 Capture Nagini
In the dim room, towering stone pillars engraved with pythons, those huge stone pillars supported the dark green ceiling.
The faint light cast a large shadow on the ground, and in the shadow were two crucibles.
In front of the crucible, stood a wizard in black robe. He was brewing potion. The flame under the crucible flickered slightly, and the potion gradually boiled, adding some warmth to the slightly deserted room.
The potion in the crucible on the left has a milky white luster, it is the elixir of life.
But it is only a semi-finished product, and the most important magic stone needs to be added to make it successful.
As long as you get the Philosopher's Stone and put it into the crucible, Voldemort can be resurrected and get a complete body after drinking the elixir of life!
That was what he had dreamed of for ten years! !
The potion in the crucible on the right was like thick mud, and it was slowly bubbling. It has been boiled, but in order to use it in the end, some "little things" need to be added.
"Get that from Snape as soon as possible, Quirrell." Voldemort's voice was cold.
"Yes...Master..." Quirrell said humbly kneeling on the ground.
"Go and see our hibernating friend," said Voldemort.
Quirrell stood up and walked towards the depths of the room. He was a little excited, but also a little scared. He didn't expect to see the legendary... secret room.
This is the room left by Slytherin for his heirs!
Slowly coming to the depths of the secret room, a statue towering to the ceiling appeared with a huge face:
It was an old, monkey-like face, a long sparse beard that almost reached the hem of the wizard's robe carved in stone, and two large gray feet standing on the smooth floor of the room.
"Speak to me, Slytherin—the greatest of the Hogwarts Four." Voldemort hissed in a Parseltongue.
The huge stone face of Slytherin moved, and its mouth opened, widening and widening until it formed a gigantic black hole.
Quirrell climbed the statue and plunged into the black hole, which contained a room whose walls were dotted with emerald gems, providing a faint light.
Through the light, you can see a hibernating basilisk, which is entrenched in a corner, and it feels that a wizard has awakened itself, and it struggles slightly.
Voldemort looked at the basilisk. The two of them hadn't seen each other for nearly half a century.
Back then, sixteen-year-old Tom came here and was disappointed to find that there was only a basilisk in the secret room.
But with in-depth communication, Tom discovered more secrets. It turned out that Slytherin taught the basilisk a lot of black magic so that it could be passed on to future generations.
Tom learned Slytherin's dark arts from the basilisk, even more than he learned by stealing in the restricted area of the library.
It was under the guidance of Slytherin that Tom went to the great field of black magic.
It was also through the Basilisk that Voldemort first learned about Horcruxes, and how to make them.
Otherwise, how could he, who was only sixteen years old at such a young age, think of immortality?
Voldemort stroked the basilisk, his noseless, weathered face, full of reminiscence.
"When I am successfully resurrected, I will take you out of here... You will like Nagini."
His cold voice echoed in the chamber.
...
...
Deep in the forests of Albania,
The entire forest is covered with white snow, but there is a hot spring here. The boiling hot spring is steaming with heat and smoke.
Rove followed Newt to this hot spring. He reached out and touched the temperature of the water. The temperature was moderate...it was very suitable for soaking in the hot spring.
"Nagini is hiding in a cave near the hot spring. The temperature in this area is very high, so she can continue to move without hibernating." Newt whispered.
"Then how can we find her?"
Newt opened his dilapidated box, and soon a creature with snow-white hairs all over its body, more than five meters high, came out.
It was a snowman, and he put his arm on Rove's shoulders, and the boy's shoulders were covered with snowflakes immediately. Newt gently brushed it off for him, and warned:
"I will ask Akshan to summon snow to cool the land. Nagini will run away if he feels the cold."
"But she should have dug a lot of exits." Newt said seriously: "You are patrolling the sky on a broomstick, and if you find her traces, send a signal."
Rove nodded and flew into the sky on a broom.
As the snowman roared, the howling cold wind suddenly whimpered, which made the snowflakes that were only a few miles away and fell to the ground fall obliquely with the wind.
Rove flew in the air, stretched out his palm to catch the cool snowflakes, and quickly caught a handful of snow.
A giant snake more than three meters long came out of a hidden cave, and Nagini was about to move to another cave, which was no longer safe.
Rove cast his eyes on the ground as if he was looking for a golden snitch. He suddenly hovered and said softly, "I found it."
There was a "ding" in the boy's brain.
[Detected a domesticated blood-cursed orc Nagini, triggering side missions]
Capture Nagini, reward:
【Parseltongue】
【Master the language of snakes, you can communicate freely with them】
After Rove gave the signal, he rode a broomstick and swooped down like a falcon, heading straight for Nagini.
That's Parseltongue.
Rove, who was originally reluctant to arrest Nagini, suddenly became active.
When Nagini heard the sound of breaking through the air, she raised her head, with a pair of gloomy vertical pupils, fixedly staring at the boy, voicing letters again and again, and thick snake saliva kept falling.
When the boy approached, Nagini straightened up suddenly, opened his bloody mouth, and bit towards Rove, but the boy dexterously dodged it.
Nagini's body arched, and his tail suddenly exerted force, but the lightning-fast tail sweep still failed to catch the broomstick that accelerated suddenly.
Nagini was extremely angry, but her speed really couldn't keep up with the nimble boy.
Rove rode his broomstick, harassing Nagini like a slimy eel, and he dropped the seeds of the devil's net, which fell to the ground.
"Devil's Net, Entangling Roots!"
The black seeds fell to the ground, and the vines floated out of the ground, like a fisherman fishing with a net, countless vines flew out and entangled Nagini.
Nagini went back into the hole again, but Rove flicked his wrist, and the underground roots spread, binding the giant snake and dragging her out of the hole.
Rove twisted his wrist again and smashed it hard into the ground.
Nagini, who was bound by vines and tree roots, began to struggle violently. She opened her mouth wide and bit towards the vines. A fire in the shape of a salamander fell from the sky and hit the snake's head. The flame burst.
Rove flew over Nagini on a broomstick. Looking at Nagini who was bound but still struggling, a bold idea suddenly flashed in his mind.
He wanted to try the magic Tongue Lash from Toad Raffle.
The boy licked the corner of his mouth, thought about it and gave up, not to mention that it didn't match his fighting style, so he should use it to deal with witches in the future.
Forget about Nagini, the snake.
